Looking to get your Mythos fix prior to the game's 2011 release? Look no further than the just-released trailer courtesy of Frogster. The video, which runs a little over a minute and a half, serves as both a teaser and the upcoming free-to-play MMO's opening cinematic.
Mythos, a throw-back dungeon crawler, has somewhat of a checkered history, given that it was originally developed by now-defunct Flagship Studios before being shuttered and subsequently kick-started by HanbitSoft. The game is now being published by Redbana in North America and Frogster in Europe, and it features solo and group PvP, three distinct classes, and a unique visual style inspired by comic books.
Check out our interview with the Mythos dev team and don't forget to sample the trailer after the cut.

I hereby nominate this as worst MMO trailer of 2010. Awful animation and incomprehensible storyline do not a good cinematic make.
I've been looking forward to the return of the game, but this worries me.

Stop! Don't .... open ... that door!
Sorry, resident evil flashbacks. Yeah it was definitely an experience.
I hope they haven't gone too far off the path Mythos set out with before flagship sunk.
Cause I'm still really really really looking forward to it.

Seriously, wth is this? I mean this is the worse trailer I've seen.
Anyways, the thing that bothers me is how many of the old dev team are still around making Mythos considering that some went to make Torchlight?

Exactly zero of the original devs are still with Mythos; they all went on to do Torchlight, every single one of them.
By the way, there have been hints that the Torchlight guys might be announcing something about their next project next week.

Wow, that is the worst voice acting I've heard since I actually watched anime back in the mid-90's in high school.
I was in the Mythos beta, back when it was lovingly handled by the crew at FS and I'm sick to see what it's become.

You know sometimes you can see something that's so bad that it sort of flips out the other side and becomes good in a cheesy kind of way? Well, this isn't one of them. Bad Mythos.

That was just awful.
Jef, next time, feel free to say something along the lines of "I've already watched this video. Folks, I'm doing you a service by saying you should not click play."
I won't say anything bad against you.
Something like that can not be un-watched.
