You know what's amazing about this game by just looking at the trailer? It's played in a browser!!! When I think of most MMORPGs played in a browser, I think of games like Runescape (which actually looks much better now than when it first started). Drakensang started as a pen-and-paper RPG. When computer RPG versions of it were created, they played much like other top-down view, point-n-click RPGs that was more about strategy with a slower paced battle mechanic (much like Never Winter Nights 2) and has been like that for the past 20+ years. But with Drakensang Online, the gameplay seems much closer to games like Diablo where the combat is faster-paced and enemies come in masses. It is currently in open beta right now, and anyone can register for free on their official website. Sadly, there is only 2 classes to choose from at the moment: Spellweaver (magic caster) and Dragonknight (Warrior type). There seems to be two more that will be added to the game later on. I never played any of the Drakensang games (even though I have Drakensang: The River of Time), but I think this is a good place to start. I don't know if there's any downloading required (some browser-based games still require some downloading), but I guess I'll find out when I try the game out tonight.
