Up until now there has been little shown on what is going on with Funcom's new MMO The Secret World. At least in the form of actual game play or what the game will actually look like. Yes there have been some great fully rendered videos that made the game look amazing, but that is not how the game will look when all is said and done. At least not at the current state of technology that is. But of course, those videos as I said were up until now.
Just released for all of our viewing pleasure is the very first look at in-game footage of the game and the game city of Kingsmouth. A city that looks to have been taken over by zombies for the three factions to come and slay to hopefully put the town back to it's old ways. At least as far as the story goes. We all know in MMO fashion you will never be able to kill all those zombies.
While it is nice to see some actual footage from the game showing they are still working hard on it, It did nothing to impress me. The video did give off the proper creepy feel about the town, it looked like another MMO in modern times. That and there were no "heroes" moving about the town showing off what players will get to do in the game. Just a bunch of zombie NPCs moving about the town. At least we get to see a bit of what the town will look like in game.
I will say I still have high hopes for this MMO, but if I were to judge based off this video, I most likely would give it a pass. Then again, this is the first real in-game shots from the game. I'm sure we will get more to make up for the lack here. We'll keep watch and update you all as we get more. Until then, enjoy the video.
