Online game publisher GamesCampus.com's genre-bending, free-to-play MMORTS Soul Master will enter open beta tomorrow, Thursday, August 12. Developed by NPluto, Soul Master is an addictive new game that takes the innovation behind customizable "Hero" units in the RTS genre to a whole new level by allowing players to have complete MMORPG-style control over their characters.
MMOHut, "Almost every major MMORPG has to have something at least vaguely resembling a crafting mechanic and an economy. It’s generally supported by an auction house, and because of WoW, we generally see the economy protected through a soul-binding system, in which powerful items bond to their users and must be trashed once they’re no longer useful to the player. It’s a fairly solid system, and it works for most cookie-cutter MMORPGs… but isn’t it a little boring?..."
MMOHut, "Soul Master is a 2.5D blended-genre MMO from GamesCampus, whose publishing credits includes Asda Story and Shot Online. Combining a story-driven RPG with both RTS and brawler elements, Soul Master is a unique offering in the MMO world that’s hard to compare to any current game on the market..."
MMOCrunch goes in depth in a first hand look of the MMORTS, Soul Master.
this looks pretty good, Im a big fan of over head camera RPGs, so this looks promising.
This game kind of came out of left field for me, so it's nice to see a decent preview.
