For those of you who haven't seen it, the very first demo was just posted on the Goblinworks Kickstarter page: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1675907842/pathfinder-online-technology -demo/posts/356601
My thoughts:
I like the character models and movement. I'm immensely relieved to see they haven't fallen prey to that awful shininess we see on TSW, TOR, and Rift toons. They seem to have a slightly more "old school" look, which I thoroughly appreciate. My only dislike there was how statue-still they look when standing idle.
Combat looked slower/clunkier than I was hoping, but I'll hold off more opinions for now, since it's in such an early stage.
I hope the final "chat bubble" text that appears over avatars' heads is something other than pale, thin red. It was very difficult to read.
I would have liked to see more landscape. We all know what dungeons look like, but I think it's the natural environment that ultimately gives a game its sense of "placeness."
A BIG congrats to the whole Goblinworks team. Great, great work so far. I'm very excited to be even a small part of this, and I can't wait to see more!
