As long rumored, Cryptic and Atari have announced Neverwinter, a game based in the Neverwinter setting.
I only have Star Trek Online to judge them by, and I think they just couldn't seem to decide what they wanted to do with the game, even by launch. Space was great fun. Anything on the ground was dreadful in all ways.
I worry that I haven't seen them pull together setting and story and character, which are essential in Neverwinter. There is a sense of mystery and magic that I don't know that they can present.
They also seemed to overlay the Champions Online interface and even terminology on Star Trek Online and it just did not fit.
So...a medieval world. A fantasy setting. Can they do it? I just don't know. They have to toss out their tired template to do it justice.
