They should have made this Warhammer 40k, as opposed to fantasy. At least they'd have something unique compared to other MMO's (war-torn sci-fi in a gritty environment). Fantasy is way too generic, despite having established many modern day standards of aesthetic.

I can't imagine how much better this would have performed if it was 40k. That feels like Game Workshop's real IP, this always felt like a red-headed step child compared to the bigger, and better 40,000.

I agree, 40k has always been better. Atleast since Blizzard came around and stole the Warhammer fantasy look/style/lore and made it their own. Mythic would have done so much better with a 40k MMO rather than a clone of a Warhammer clone that wasn't so good to begin with.

They couldn't get the license you dum dum. Mythic would of stilled failed because they can't organize their self out of flipn paper bag. Loud mouth racist aka Mark Jacobs would of piled that one to ground just like he did this one. That why he quit, hes a coward and couldn't figure out how to fix the game. Think of it like a big guild and this guild can't lead and everyone is fighting that is what Mythic is. I bet the Mythic HQ is filled with drama these days.

Amazing. Are you normally this silly, or does the need to vent needlessly cause you to say things like that?

Of all the things i've seen Jacobs called, a coward and a racist are probably the strangest.

I do agree that this would have been different, maybe even better, if it were set in the 40k universe. The thing I'm going to disagree with you on is the Games Workshop real IP. Games Workshop started out with the fantasy based game back in 1984. They released 40k in the mid 90's. So, 40k is/was based off the initial fantasy game. All the specialist games are spun off of one of these two products. The only game not derived from these is there Lord of the Rings game. Just wanted to set you correct. That is all.
