Anyone heard any more news on it's release? Looks really good.
This screenshot is impressive. He also seems to be hung like a donkey.

Aye. Gotta say, the video footage demonstrating that
beasts movement and sound is absolutely
amazing. And some of the ingame footage
looks fantastic. I have no idea how good
the gameplay will actually be, but I reckon it'll rock.

1) It's not an adventure game It's a first person shooter.

2) It looks fantastic.

3) I've been regged on their forum for a few months now but there hasn't really been any developments recently. Expect to see the team at E3 though.

There has been nothing released to suggest it has any rpg elements.

players can choose a class. they get quests. they have to seek out dungeons.
they can upgrade their gear.
that makes it adventuresque if anything

the site even says it will appeal to both FPS and RPG fans

It's a first person shooter. It takes place in the first person perspective and you shoot things.

Now I'll admit that I was unaware of the gear and class element of the game but that doesn't really change anything. Deus Ex had RPG elements too but it was still a FPS.

Project Offset are making a FPA with RPG elements.
The guys that used to be with Blizzard are using it for their mmog.

Really? I thought that was Flagship Studios with Hellgat London.

If these are blizzard guys why are they having trouble finding a publisher?

They aren't with Blizzard anymore. They've started their own company.

Yes I know. But I thought the blizzard splitters formed Flagship studios.

As for the funding I would think that people who have been connected to blizzard would have no trouble getting people to invest, especially considering the quality of their product visually.
