Part of the job of writing for Massively OP is encountering new games and trying to get a handle on what they are so that we can succinctly relay that to you, the reader. In the case of Legends of Gaia, we have to admit defeat because the site doesn’t really explain what this MMORPG is all about, just that it’ll be gosh-darn awesome.
We can chalk up some of the difficulty in understanding to the odd Patreon pitch, but the official FAQ is a wealth of vague information about possible small details (will the game have “nerve gear?” What is nerve gear?) without ever painting a big picture about the title. We do know that the team is highly inspired by the anime and game series Sword Art Online, and to a lesser extent, Skyrim.
The team boldly states that this will be one of the most ambitious MMOs ever made: “We consider that its standards and mechanics breaks with the current ones that will change the whole way of playing forever.” We’ll hold them to that assertion.
Check out the trailer for Legends of Gaia after the break!
