This has been online for quite a long time, but it is just now that I figure out how to paste the link to it here. It's a video trailer for the upcoming LW video game by Ksatria. Well, you don't see the actual gameplay, but some arts, rough animations, a demo of the Kjapi engine involving barrels (which has been already described in some of the newspaper reports about Ksatria) and a fight between a Drakkar and a Knight: www.singaporemediafusion.com/member/media/preview.aspx?type=MF&seq=base&OB=0&id=4bf66634-d824-453e-ac33-6c8798df7de5The whole video feature new stuff. But isn't the fight between the warriors the same one we saw in the video of the LW MMORPG? I knew some programmers left Magnamund Studios (developpers of the MMORPG) to join Ksatria, but did they also brought their work with them?

I have a copy of the video of the mmo, and apart from having removed the symbol from the sails on the boat the fight scene is the same one.

Oh, a video of the old MMORPG... Maybe you could put it on YouTube, or give it to the people of PA who will very likely be happy to host it on their site as part as the LW legacy.

I don't know... I'm dubious. They seem to have taken a lot of things, including the music from Morrowind, and the demo from MMORPG. It makes me wonder how much they've actually accomplished.

That video has been there for quite a while on the net. Some programmers that were once working for the MMORPG moved to Singapore to work for Ksatria, so they brought some of there stuff. However, I think what is interesting is the part featuring the throwing of barrels towards the kjapi sign. It shows how good the new engine they have created is working.

I must say that I'm dubious. Depending on who owns the copyright, did they bother consulting Jeremy Soule or Bethesda on using the iconic Morrowind music (which sounded as if it had been carved up). Likewise, who owns the footage from the old MMO? Why was the video so small as well?

Great musician. Sad they didn't allow him more compositions in Morrowind.

Now that is cool! His music is very pleasant, but the good thing about MW is that you can put your own MP3s in the appropriate folders and extend the in-game music selection indefinitely.

Unless you own the Xbox version, like me. Though i suppose if I had Xbox live I could download patches of music. In any case, I would never pass up a chance for MORE Jeremy Seule.

Heh. I own GOTY for the PC and both the vanilla and GOTY editions for the Xbox. I played it for months on end on the Xbox, before I could even think of getting a good enough PC.
