    Hi, im new here. I was just wondering if anyone has any information on the game "Blood Magic".

    what ive read is that all the char classes are gonna be casters, they will change appearence with levels, you can combine spells (like in ryzome maybe? or a similar effect to synergies in d2 lod 1.10?) and that the online feature is gonna be similar to b.net (i havent found a better implimentation to an online rpg since closed battle.net, even with all the hacker and spambots).

    anyone else looking forward to this game? any more information?

    haha because of the quotation marks you used, i thought this was going to be about the use of blood as the source of "magic" in vampire:bloodlines. :lol:

    Has that one already been released in Russia? I think it might have. I know 1C were involved with it. Anyone care to confirm?

    I am not so sure if the story will be good, the "help to save the world or help to destroy it" is too black and white for my tastes, and I think you'd have to be retarded and not evil to want to destroy the world when you are on it.

    It promises some multiplayer aspects, with character importing so you can duel with another players SP character.

    I see what you mean NeverwinterKnight, it does look like a post on the magic theme in Vampire, I thought it was that until I read the post.

    Does Blood Magic have a website? It sounds quite interesting and I'm interested in games that follow the Battle.net formula (Guild wars for instance) over monthly-subscription MMO crap.

    ya, those are the types of games im looking forward to also. im in guild wars alpha, but i think it just dosent have the depth that i want. this looks like it has a good deal of depth though, so im hopeful. im also thinking about getting a ps2 to get champions: return to arms cause it has a similar setup to bnet in its online version , it has closed servers, and the gameplay in the first one was fun if you could get past the bugs.

    ya it has a website, but the page is just a placeholder cuase its not up and runnning yet. heres the URL: http://www.bloodmagicthegame.com/
