If you haven't seen, the Gower brothers have made a new RPG. Apparently it aims to be less of a grind. Launching on Steam later this year. Anyone else planning to give it a shot?

I'll def give it a shot - I didn't grow up with RuneScape but I've played a bit and it manages to give me nostalgia for something I never played.

It'll be nice getting in on the ground floor of a new RuneScape like game.

It will be nice to have all the players on the same level to start off. I suppose that was the appeal of the Fresh Start worlds. With a fresh economy and the lack of game knowledge amongst the player base, I'm sure it'll be a great time.

Decades later and the only truly Runescape-like game was made by the guys who made Runescape. This seems pretty cool, might try it out.

Not just that but it seems they worked essentially since their departure from Runescape to develop an engine and a custom language all leading up to this MMO. An impressive undertaking to be sure. Can't wait to see how it pays off.
