The youtube embed still-image is hilarious and made me lol.

 

Looks pretty generic MMO-wise, but who knows. It might be fun(ny) to run around with that sword. Maybe. Can't really tell much from a trailer like that. Nice scenery...

It kind of looks like Tera, but less creepy.  That ludicrous sword, though...  Ugh.  Well, at least I didn't see any preteen girls with bunny ears running around in ridiculously short skirts with their underwear showing.

Become a God
 
Skyforge gives players the opportunity to walk the hero’s path – from new born immortal, to mighty champion, to becoming a god themselves capable of standing toe to toe with other major gods.

 

I'm assuming this means that even at low level the damage numbers popping up over enemies heads will be in the thousands or ten thousands and will work their way up to millions.

Apparently Obsidian is responsible for *westernization* and some content design
 


MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Your destiny is your own to forge. My.com, a subsidiary of Mail.Ru Group, has revealed a new AAA title: the premium massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) Skyforge is currently being developed by the Allods Team, an in-house studio of Russian Internet giant Mail.Ru Group, with westernization from US gamemaker Obsidian Entertainment. Skyforge will launch as an immersive MMORPG gaming experience for PCs.

“This is our most ambitious project to date”

In Skyforge, players develop from immortals, to mighty champions, to powerful gods gaining and developing their mortal followers and powers along the way. Empowered by the faith and skill of their followers, gods battle invading armies in intense, merciless combat to protect their home world. Skyforge features unique action combat and a massive variety of classes and character customization options as players grow from immortal to invincible gods.
Skyforge is being developed by the award winning Russian game developer Allods Team, a part of the Mail.ru Group. Their last project, Allods Online, was the first major Russian MMORPG and launched in more than 15 countries. The core of Allods Team includes industry veterans who developed internationally acclaimed games including Evil Islands, Etherlords, Silent Storm and Heroes of Might and Magic V.
Set in a world where fantasy meets Sci-Fi and ancient mysteries live side by side with cutting-edge technologies, Skyforge transports players to a stunning universe where mortals and immortals fight for survival against invading gods and their armies. Players start as immortals newly reborn into the world and vie to become gods themselves.
“This is our most ambitious project to date,” said Oleg Shpilchevsky, The Allods Team’s Head of Development Studio. “With players competing and cooperating on one single giant server, Skyforge brings the massive back to MMORPGs.”
Visceral combat sequences and grand battles unfold across a world settings limited only by the developer's imagination. To ensure that Skyforge meets the expectations of players worldwide, The Allods Team has enlisted the help of the widely lauded development studio, Obsidian Entertainment.
“We have begun working closely with the Allods Team to ensure that the game is a success in western markets,” said Eric DeMilt, Development Director of Culturalization for Skyforge, Obsidian Entertainment. “We are building a team of accomplished developers to collaborate in class and instance content development as well as westernization. It is an exciting partnership with an excellent development team, and we can't wait for players to get into the game.”

What exactly does "westernization" mean?  Will they be changing character names from Svetlana to Suzie?

 

"Vodka" healing to "Red Bull" healing?

Speaking of healing items, they'll have to change Pirozhki to Doritos Locos Tacos.

 

As an aside, changing to Red Bull and Doritos Locos Tacos has the side benefit of making the game ready for eventual console release.  I can already see it "Pick up specially marked 4 packs of Red Bull for a special code that gets you a weekend of double experience in Skyforge".  ;)

Will it feature a forge that's in the sky, or will it be a more traditional ground-based forge that will allow you to hammer out skies?  Maybe there won't even be forge at all.  The promise of a forge could just be a red herring.

My friends and I are often drifting from one F2P MMO to another now that GW2's content updates have slowed down, and we're trying to look for one that sticks.

 

Honestly, this one looks actually pretty decent so far, and I am a bit of a sucker for FFX Sphere Grid type leveling :yes: In the case it's "TERA but less creepy", then good enough for me
