Ten Ton Hammer - Taking MMO Gamers to the Next Level!

When Warrior Epic, the upcoming MMO from Possibility Space and True Games, went into closed beta testing a few months ago, players clamored to get into the game and really try out the many systems touted by the WE developers. Now the game is nearing completion and the developers are preparing to open their doors to the public sometime in 2009. Ten Ton Hammer's Danny "Ralsu" Gourley has been following the game in every step of the development process, and he recently had an opportunity to chat with Brice Lucas, Senior Web Designer/Developer and Community Manager for WE, to check up on the progress of the game and find out the nitty-gritty details behind some of the combat systems in the MMO. Enjoy!

Ten Ton Hammer: In past gameplay videos (like the old trailer), Warrior Epic has looked like a dungeon crawler. Can we expect to collect a lot of loot and that doing so will be one of the driving forces in the game?

Brice: There will be tons of loot in Warrior Epic, and an insane level of customization for just about everything you find… but Warrior Epic is not focused on grinding and looting. Our game is focused on playing with friends and kicking their asses in PvP or using strategy to make it through a quest. In typical RPG’s you just keep finding gear that does more and more damage to whatever enemy you hit it with. In our game, new weapons and equipment will enable you to formulate new strategies for existing or yet to be hired warriors thereby giving you a different experience depending on what you have equipped and whom you have it equipped on.
