Not sure what type of game this is, exactly. MMO? I've heard that the price is $25, but it's also coming to PC, so that might be the PC price (by "exclusive" in the title, I mean console exclusive).



Strange that it's coming out in a week, and I haven't heard anything about it until today.

Here's all I've seen on it (stolen from GAF):

Next up is something we’re all pretty excited about, and that is our newest trailer! Featuring all four of the forms players can discover in the game — including the beautiful and agile hira, who is being introduced here officially for the very first time — as well as eye-popping shots of the vast and majestic scenery players can explore.

While we were at it, we’ve added a little bit of narration as well just for good measure. Feast your eyes on this, and get ready to wander!

Since our time is nearly at hand, we’ve been working hard to develop tons of awesome new features, such as polishing the griffin flying experience to a high-gloss sheen. Anyone who thinks flying will simply be a matter of just pressing a button to get from point A to point B is in for a pleasant surprise, as it will require a little bit of skill and practise to master.

I don't know if this is really my taste, but I thought I'd put up a thread, just in case anyone might be interested.
 
Yeah, looks like you just fly around as (or with) different creatures, exploring the territory. I don't see any indications of combat.

I like there isn't a chat function, but instead you have to communicate via glyphs drawn on the touchpad, and you have to search out those glyphs in order to be able to use them. I was waiting for someone to use the touchpad for something like that.

You start as a tree. Well, that's new.
 
Warning, looks like a dud.

For example:
"My god, this game is awful. The doubts started to creep in at the menu - you're presented with three (?) options, all seemingly written in Arial. Unnerved, I started the game up. This is quite literally the ugliest thing you'll ever see. EVERYTHING pops in and out. Everything. Plants, trees, rock, grass - all pop in and out of existence with every footstep you take. Grass and sand meet at straight lines, with little to no effort to blend the two with any more depth than that found in Minecraft. The waterfalls are just beyond description. Just...wow."

"To top this all off, what I presume is the tutorial consists of dumping you in the forest and hoping you can figure out how to move on to the actual game. I certainly can't. I'm still there, watching assets cease to exist with every footstep."

They can make anything look good in trailers. Lol

Sucks though as the visuals look decent aside from all the bugs.
