    The Secret World was one of my favourite solo MMORPG ever. Shame it didnt have success and they didnt make more areas/stories/missions cause they were the best I have seen in an MMO.

    On launch when webpages didnt have all the mission solved and all the codes cracked was really fun having several players looking at the same clue and talking about what each one thought it was.

    It makes me happy seeing the game will live on as a table top.

    Right, so after Funcom botched the original game, then royally screwed over its backers, did a blatant low-effort cash grab with SWL that is now in an even worse state than the original game was at the end of its life, they are now trying to squeeze the players for the third time. I probably shouldn't be surprised that there are people falling for this shit and this scummy company.

    Looking at the photos in the Kickstarter page, I see that all they are doing is re-using 12 years old game assets and old concept art to print cards, slap on a bit of flavour text and mechanics and voilà, a "new game" is ready to show any remaining fools how to open their wallets. That's some low standard even for Funcom, but I guess by this time that's all they're left with as far as TSW goes.

    Honestly, I'm surprised that people like Bylos are still there, after the crap this company did to the players. What an awesome game it was - what a shitty studio it turned out to be...

    I'm confused, doesn't Funcom own the rights to Secret World?

    Table top rule book. I had to glean that information from context as I had never seen TTRPG before.

    We used to call them "pen and paper" rpgs. I think TT took over a few years ago when kids stopped learning what pens and paper are.

    Ooooh, okey dokey, so it has nothing to do with the Secret World game itself. Phew.

    Savage worlds is an alright rules system but not stellar, they do have some great lines though, I have used some of their stuff just as source material and ignored the system. Respecting your characters on the fly sounds rather easy mode to me, "no one can open safes? I will respec, now I can!". I would have to see it to be sure that's how it works but if so that's naff.

    Someone should make a single player RPG based on TSW. But really.

    If SWL didn't have the insulting "P2W" and played like Fallout 76, I'd play it again. I liked the setting.
