Well, aside from that wonderful demo footage I got to watch at Fanfest...

DANG that thing was cool. You should have been there to see it. It was awesome.

Just how much awesome footage you guys have seen at fanfests that never actually seen the light? Oh right, every bit of ot.

Actually, with few exceptions, most of the fanfest content I have seen ended up in game.

I would gladly split my money for CCP if they ever launched WoD, but sadly I think such a thing will never happen.

Man I would even buy the special pre-release collector edition with the devs dried saliva imbued fake vampire teeth that has a bit of smelly rotten tuna lodged in for 300$!!!

I could finally realize my dream of playing a brazilian tranny midget vampire of the nosferatu antitribu, but no, it will never happen.

IIRC, WoD had quite a following, despite classical Pen and Paper RPGs being on the decline at that time.
Of course that does not necessarily mean anything for an Online CRPG.

Then again, I seem to recall that the Toreador could sparkle (sort of).....


They couldn't sparkle but they did have their Presence powers. Some of the art looked kind of "sparkly". I'm pretty sure it was invisible tho ;D.

I'm looking forward to the WoD game when it débuts. I'm hoping it will look a bit like Vampire Bloodlines but with better graphics.

And we have had some fun hypothesizing of the potential epicness of a WoD MMORPG

The EVE PLAYERS didn't want CCP working on WOD.


That is an overstatement if I ever saw one in my life Lol

Actually it costs about $15 a month.


Not everyone the wants WoD plays EvE Blink

WiS was supposed to be partially used as a technology testing platform for whatever was to go into WoD. Eve players decided to rebel and cut the legs off WiS and by extension WoD .. ie. manpower was pulled, priorities shifted etc.

Would be pretty awesome to have WoD, but I fear that CCP does not have the ability to do it anytime soon and if they license out the IP we'll likely end up with some horrible free-to-play gold-ammo bonanza ... so give CCP the years they need to sort Eve proper (they pretty much ignored it for far too long, hence the balance spam) so they can get some manpower freed up for extracurricular activities.

Eve is almost there, tiericide is on track for an early completion date and discussions about what null would be fun to hunt and live in has been picking up ...

In short: Patience.


I completely agree.

As Malcanis said above.... It costs us nothing to wait. Anticipation is sometimes the best part of the process.

I have been waiting to play WoD since ccp and ww merged. I honestly think, if done correctly, it will be a steak in the heart of WoW for a lot of people. But then again it has to be done correctly. CCP does things there own way, it took eve many years to get where it is now.

My hope is dust and Valkyrie, will make back there money at least, then they can shift focus and get wod out. If WoD is popular, we all win, more income means they can work on and improve other aspects like eve. The only thing I fear, is ccp will launch WoD and it will either be a huge success so that ccp leaves eve slowly behind collecting dust. Or its such a colossal failure that it drags the whole company down with it. But, with the rabid fans of WoD out there, I think for a time it will see some very prosperous months. But we will see.

When a project is this troubled it's usually surprising if it ever comes out.

It's just a pet project that's in the back burner. It's been like this for years and I don't expect to see it ready at all until at least 2020 which is when my Florida driver license expires.

Yup my thoughts exactly. My biggest fear is WoD hitting it off huge and Eve getting pushed aside.

Actually, I think the trend for Teenage Vampires is finally dying out (where's the next Twilight-clone film coming from....nowhere right now).

I'm pretty sure CCP is aware of this.

ed: also, after the ridiculous flood this year, the Zombie trend seems to have burned itself out, mercifully, thank God.
