Mythos - Interview @ RPG Vault

We haven't really been covering Mythos, seeing it more as an MMO than otherwise but since it will be free to play and is made by FATE's Travis Baldree at Flagship, we'll check in on it from time to time.  RPG Vault has a new interview:

Jonric: As an introduction to Mythos, what would you like to say about it? What type of game will it be, to whom are you aiming to appeal, and what's the current target ship date?

Travis Baldree: Mythos is pretty unabashedly a game in the Diablo and Diablo II vein, but with a more World of Warcraft- or Guild Wars- type MMO structure, and the casual aesthetic of Fate, a game I previously worked on. The main factors distinguishing it from Diablo are the fact that it is fully online, and you can meet and party with others in shared towns, and that it's going to be free to play.

We're hoping to appeal to the hardcore Diablo fans by providing more depth than other free games, and a solid and polished experience, but we also want to rope in as many casual players as possible. We don't honestly have to have an actual ship date, as we won't be charging for the game, nor does it have to go in a box. We can treat it sort of like G-Mail and stay in beta for as long as we like.
