<a href="http://www.gametrailers.com/player/37757.html">There's a video up on GameTrailers</a> about Rise of the Argonauts and how it's "Taking RPGs to the Next Level".

<br>
I can't be assed waiting for the video to load but remember this is that Action-RPG where, instead of stats, you level up by worshipping Gods.

So, what was bad about this way of leveling up? I think it's a nice change from the usual experience-hunt, might turn out to be similar to Blloodlines where you only recieved XP from quest-solving and not from combat. They try out something new and interesting, and it doesn't even sound bad. Try to bash other parts of the game [like those worth bashing, for example the total rape of Greek mythology].

The next level on RPGs is NOT to level at all, not this craptastic shit...

I've always liked leveling in RPGs, I never saw a problem with it. I'm sure it might be interesting to have everything "behind the scenes" and your skills increase as you use them or some such, but the old school way of things still feels nice to me.

Also why is Jim from the Amerikkkan The Office making a video game?

By leveling up, they mean unlocking new moves and improving your weapons. Innovashun ! . Maybe it's going to be a fun action game with some dialog , maybe you'll even get some choices that will mean something more than just getting a new weapon from the god of your choice , but taking RPG's to the next level ? Don't think so.
