Anyone else excited about this one? I'm really looking forward to it. It's all online, which I think is great as one of the problems with ARPGs is their online community is weak. Diablo 2 still has by far the best online community as far as I know, and while I love D2, that's kinda sad considering it's 10 years old. The skill system sounds really deep as well. If you sign up on their forums you're also signed up for the beta.

Looks like they took the skill tree from Final Fantasy 10 and slapped it on top of a shameless Diablo 3 clone. Hard for me to get excited about that.

I'll give 'em props for making it free to play, though I have to take pause when an unproven startup offers online only, cloud-based gameplay.

Not sure what you mean by that, I got bored with FF games a long time ago. There's a cool video on their site on how their skill system works:

For a team of only 12 people, this game looks mighty impressive. I freaking love the way the dungeons look in this game.
