OpenMW featured on Niche Gamer

[Rumina]

There was an article covering the project on Niche Gamer this morning.

Didn't see anything about it here so I thought I'd let you guys know. Its mostly about the multiplayer function being worked on, but hey, more coverage is always good.

Unfortunately for Morrowind fans, the creators of OpenMW have no plans to add in this new multiplayer option until the suite is finalized and at version 1.0.

Since it’s currently sitting at 0.37, it may be a long time before we finally see this all come together.

Responsible journalism!

[lysol]

Indeed. How about, you know, contact the devs and ask a few questions like a real journalist would do?

Who am I fooling...

[ezze]

On the other hand, it is few years now that OpenMW is almost 1.0 ... it always requires more time than expected, and this is indeed a large and complex project.

True of course, but at the same time, you can complete every quest more or less right now. It's not like it's 62 releases left until 1.0.

Please keep this discussion on topic. Moved off-topic discussion to the different sub-forum: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=3333

Not only that, but all 62 releases are already specced out.

Or was it 962 releases before 1.0? I'm not good with details

You'd think a gamer publication would know versioning...

Sorry, need to bump this.

Another fine example of journalism!

And yeah, it's me raging in the long comment. Haha.

[Atahualpa]

Yes, let there be rage! I really enjoyed reading your comment.
Maybe they will learn it someday...

The main goals of OpenMW, the version nummeration, and the project's status are things I will definitely address in the following release commentary videos. You can't stress these points often enough.

Maybe you could correct some misunderstandings about multiplayer as well, because that seems to be a common misconception.
