Title Change

Ah,I see. Yeah,to tell you the truth,that does seem a little more recognizable. Plus,I kinda like the idea of new Conan fans getting this mod expecting it to just be centered on everybody's favorite barbarian,then discovering that there's a gritty,realistic "fantasy" world behind him.

Oh,come on now. As long as I've been following this mod,you had to have expected me to be the first to learn of something as big as this,didn't you?
So when will that splash image be ready? I'm looking forward to seeing it!

Not at all, it was more I was hoping to get the preview done before the name change went into effect.

Soon is all I'm saying.

Spartan, the biggest change is that we're making it a Solomon Kane mod...

I sort of didn't like it at first (looked for "Hyborian Age" in the list of M2TW mods, but found Conan!), but it was for a good reason. Maybe I feel negative about it, because of the memory Middle Earth Online getting the more populistic name Lord Of The Rings Online. And at the same time getting completely fucked up into a dumb, generic MMORPG.

Well, hopefully the legion of REH and Conan fans will keep us in the right: though some of our decisions might be controversial, I would certainly hope the mod will be neither dumb nor generic!

And as we REH fans know,there's nothing generic about the world of Conan!

Spartan, not only is there nothing generic, but the amount of detail that Taranaich has worked out is truly amazing -- I keep coming up with obscure stuff from the stories, saying 'hey maybe we should include this,' and he's not only already thought of it, but he's got a detailed plan for it. You should see his post on the different types of elephants that will be in the game!
