GameZone: "World-building games gained an incredible amount of prominence and notoriety when Minecraft introduced its polygonal brand of magical creation tools. Players were able to build away for hours on end, literally molding entire lands around them. However, world-building doesn't need to just be relegated to chunky cubes, and that's exactly what EverQuest Next Landmark has set out to prove. Sony Online Entertainment wants to deliver the next evolution of this open-ended genre by letting you create even more — yes, even rounded edges, because the world isn't just made up of voxels."
Take a break from the sun with our pick of the hottest MMOs for the summer months. Who needs time in the daystar anyway?
No Final Fantasy XIV mention eh? I've been on and off between patches for 2 years and its been a wonderful game.
EverQuest Next was cancelled last month almost as an afterthought in a blog post by Daybreak president Russell Shanks, to the surprise of no-one. What is surprising, however, is the strange malaise that led to it and the hopeful solution.
Landmark, the sandbox component originally envisioned as an incubator for Everquest Next, is still launching. It will be out this spring for $9.99.
