Heh, noone is going to 'rape' you for your opinion. :)

I'm not sure what part of the video leads you to believe this is an RPG. The only thing about the game that resembles an RPG is that you can play 3 different classes. It's really no more of an RPG than Team Fortress is.

The game is more of an action game than anything else. Although the combat system is very similar to games like World of Warcraft. Perhaps that makes it like an RPG to some people.

If you try out the game when it is released, I think you will change your mind about it being an RPG. :)

We are not trying to make a 100% historically accurate game. Otherwise there would be no spells in the game :)

We knew the kind of game we wanted to make, and we made decisions that would fit the gameplay we wanted into a mystical, feudal Asian setting.

That being said, although the bow may not have been a ninja's primary weapon, there is plenty of reference that indicates they did use them, often with poison-tipped arrows, as they are silent and deadly at range.

At the end of the day, if the game is fun, that is our primary concern.

That is also one of the subjects of the meeting tomorrow is to develop our plan for continuing support of the game into the future, after initial release.

Our hope and intention is to continue to develop and refine the mod in the future, much like CS, DOD, etc.
