Let's hope they can think up a better name, but aside from that I'm a little intrigued. Then again, i haven't been that interested in McFarlane work since his Where the Wild Things Are toys a few years back.

"While KoA:R sounds like it would be yet another crappy MMORPG, luckily gamers will be treated to a focused and carefully crafted single-player campaign."

FTFY.

 

[Simple11]

Mmm I miss Todd McFarlane.

 

[nomade85]

HOLY SH17! My Favorite author is going to make a game.

 

[anamaniac]

Salvatore and McFarlane, mixed with the awesome of a lead dev from Elder Scrolls?
Preorders?

 

[tharkis842]

Wow, this group should make an interesting story and game world. Very interested in seeing how this turns out.

Thank god I'm not the only one who thought that.

I'll certainly keep an eye out for this game but frankly comments such as

...a fast-paced, graphically stimulating action combat experience...

always makes me wary.

I'm personally old-school in that I prefer my RPGs turn-based and tactical.

Did anyone else notice "roll playing" in the URL? I hope we all know the differences between roll and role ^^... unless we're talking about, you know, classic DnD style dice "rolls" here.

Actually when i read McFarlane, I thought about Seth McFarlane!!

An open-world RPG by R.A. Salvatore

Fantastic! I am SO interested.... one of my absolute favorite authors.

Reading "The Pirate King" right now.

Be glad this isn't a MMO. If you think the Drizzt craze in other MMO's is bad, think of the levels it would reach in a game actually created by Salvatore.

 

[decrypted]

R.A.Salvatore is one of my all time favorite authors, and I'm really looking forward to what he can bring to the story. Alas, Drizzt may yet get a game about him, that would be awesome.

 

[donovands]

Single player! Yes! Who wants another MMO anyway? Market is saturated already.

 

[gr33nf00t]

Always thought R. A. Salvatore was very "meh." Good to see Todd McFarlane doing work again, though.

 

[Onus]

I may very well like this one, as long as it doesn't require too much hand-eye coordination and is a click-fest. Will wait for more details.

 

[LordConrad]

Single player! Woohoo!! I'm getting so tired of all this MMOG hype.

You know he's part of the creative team behind Haunt, right?
You should be able to tell anyway because the story involves shape-shifting superpowers and a guy that looks like Spiderman. McFarlane just can't seem to let go of that stuff.

 

[Trialsking]

I am only playing if I can be Drizzt Durden hand drawn by McFarlane. Incredible Hulk #340 FTW, yes I own it!

 

[Guest]

@kalogagatya: As did I! Imagine a `Family Guy` RPG ¬_¬

 

[mavanhel]

I hope this game plays like the Elder Scrolls. I love that first person RPG style

 

[agnickolov]

Can we call it "The Elder Scrolls: Diablo" then? Though I'm sure it'll be better than a simple combination of the two with the promise of a good story...

 

[dEAne]

Nice group.
