Not sure if anyone has been following this game, but today i saw a 26minute long interview from PAX that i found interesting.

I liked the bit about loot being based on your 'class' rather than random loot with a /roll system.

Game looks good, I cant wait for it to actually come out.

not sure it was that large, but the ratio is about right. That setup would be pretty cool with the TrackIR thing they were talking about.

exactly.

EVE like setting, FPS control scheme, user skill require to do damage rather than a dice roll, not another flippin WoW clone.

I liked in the video when he showed the 'boss battle'. looks to be setup kinda like the PQs in WAR.

Yes yes. One of the thing I like about these new games is how the crafting is changing up.

Like, for example, in Fallen Earth, you gain EXP through crafting, it's not just another grindfest for skill points. As said in a tutorial/tour video I watched, you can reach max level without ever killing a mob. Fallen Earth looked really interesting, but I gave up on my pursuit of it.

Crafting in JGE will be, I hope, very ingenious and interesting. Plus the whole concept of "fighter or freighter" class interaction is interesting, again similar to EVE. I'd like to be a trader and play the economy etc., but it seems so damn inconvenient you can't protect yourself. Hopefully there will be guilds/clans/whatevers. And didn't something in the site mention how if just random players help out a freighter getting attacked, they get some kind of reward?

Here's a small interview about PvP. Just for you Theo!
