Will Vendetta always feature realtime combat?
Yes. Real-time “twitch” combat, and non-optional PvP are two fundamental hallmarks of Vendetta Online. They are not for everyone, and we accept that. However, we make an effort to keep our game viable for many different play styles. We simply avoid “absolutes”, as we dislike the very unrealistic concepts of “absolute safety” or one player being “absolutely better” than another who just started. Would would rather have many shades of grey, many variations of “more” and “less” safe, and more or less skilled, to better reflect our universe’s goal as more of a “real” place. This is much more difficult to achieve than the traditional absolutes that are found in most games (and especially MMOs), but we think it’s a goal worthy of the extra headaches and design complexities.
