Massively Speaks with Sparkplay Media's CEO About Earth Eternal

Sparkplay Media's upcoming MMORPG, Earth Eternal, is a fantasy-based game that will set itself apart from other fantasy games by offering a different kind of fantasy option. Where many fantasy MMORPGs give players the option to play dwarves, elves, hobbits, and other fantasy classic races, Earth Eternal will offer players the option to play Clockworks, Yetis, falcons, and more states Sparkplay Media's CEO, Matt Mihaly. In a recent interview with Massively.com, Matt talks about the target demographic for Earth Eternal and what sets the game apart from the rest of the fantasy-based free-to-play MMOs on the market.

We're a different kind of experience from FusionFall or Free Realms. We're more in the vein of a classic fantasy MMO than a collection of minigames. I think where we stand out is by offering the best browser-based fantasy MMO out there. We've made the decision to have no humans, elves, or dwarves (or gnomes, hobbits, or anything else too close to human), preferring instead to offer everything from humanoid lizards and falcons to the Clockwork and Yeti. We're definitely fantasy but we want to stay away from the pack, almost all of whom have the humans/elves/dwarves thing going on. We've also got an enormous number of races for players (unlike the two games you mentioned) – 22 at launch.
