Here is another bit of information regarding one of the races in Requiem: Bloodymare, the extremely violent and bloody (thus the title) horror MMORPG.

Turans have balanced strength, agility and are intelligent despite their low resistance to magic. They are also the most balanced race of Ethergia, and although they don’t have any distinctively outstanding strengths, they are renowned for their tenacity and solidarity. They are a rational race that upholds justice, preferring balanced and harmonized combat styles, quick movements, and agility over the use of brute force. They are also adept at learning the other races’ abilities, adapting the divine magic of the Xenoas for their own use.

Combat-wise, Turans are average, in terms of strength and spirit, but they excel in agility, learning, and intelligence. These qualities enable them to learn and utilize a great variety of skills. They are a highly moral race, so Turans tend to use humane skills that do not unnecessarily torture their enemies in battle.

When relating to other races, the Turan and Bartuk races utilized fighting styles dependent on skills based on physical strength early in their histories. However, the Turans eventually began to also develop a more balanced combat style with moves that combine strength, agility and quick thinking since the Bartuks were physically stronger. During the era of the Xenon Empire, many Turans studied divine magic and became adepts. They are naturally opposed to the dark magic wielding Kruxenas, and are vulnerable to their magic attacks.

Job classes for the Turan are defender or templar with second jobs being commander, protector, tempest, or radiant.

If you have been wanting to get in on the Requiem: Bloodymare beta but did not get your chance with the closed beta, now you can be a happy little camper. Today, registration for the Requiem: Bloodymare beta begins and once you have filled out all the correct forms so to speak, you can begin playing it May 15 - which is tomorrow for my date-challenged friends.To download the beta, click on the badge below.

I am a participant in the closed beta for Bloodymare, and while I can’t really talk to much about it, I can say that it is indeed a dark, bloody-horror of a place full of seeping evil. If this is your sort of thing, you will really enjoy it, but if you like a lot of sunshine, bunnies, rainbows and unicorns hopping around your screen, steer clear of it because if those creatures existed in Bloodymare, their heads would be on a spike,the sun would be blown to bits, and any rainbow that surfaced would be quickly corrupted by the sheer amount of grotesque evil that abounds in that place.

We are all well aware that the giant that is GTA IV will be hitting stores on Tuesday. We also know that Mario Kart Wii will be released tomorrow, which is Sunday, which is a weird day for a game release, which is why I am using the world “which” so much.

Nevertheless, there ARE other games hitting shelves next week, and while they deserve just as much attention as any other highly anticipated title, whoever decided that this would be a great week to launch their game needs either a reality check or to lay off the sauce.

Here are the games slated to hit shelves next week. As always, we are not responsible for any changes to said dates - blame the publisher, not us. Since there are not as many releases as previous weeks, I did not break them down by system this time and listed the date instead:

• April 27: Mario Kart Wii (Wii)
• April 28: Corvette Evolution GT (DS), Requiem: Bloodymare (PC)
• April 29: Brain Voyage (DS), GTA IV & GTA IV Special Edition (PS3, Xbox 360), Let’s Pilates (DS), Let’s Yoga (DS) Polar Games 2 (PC), Riding Star (PS2) SNK Arcade Classics: Volume 1 (PS2, PSP) Toy Shop (DS) Winx Club: Mission Enchantix (DS)

The Requiem: Bloodymare Community Manager has announced that closed beta period for the MMO has been extended until Thursday April 17th, 2008. Apparently the MMO needs more time for optimization and polishing before entering the stress testing phase.

Gaming Today has been following the development of Requiem: Bloodymare closely. Catch the latest trailer on this very adult MMO on our site.

via Requiem: Bloodymare Forum 

It’s midnight. Even seasoned and strong Temperions, those who no longer flinch at the sight of severed monster heads, fear the night. They’ve heard the stories, they’ve seen the bodies.

At first, all you hear is the rustling of something in the dark. As the blood moon rises and the world grows silent, you realize your worst fears, heinous Nightmare Monsters that ravage the world, have now found you. You tighten your grip, feeling the weight of the broadsword. Deep in the darkness, they lie still…

If you were lucky enough to get in on the beta you know what to expect from Requiem: Bloodymare, if not, well let me just say that it is indeed one big barrel of bloody fun.

You have to go through an age gate to view the newest trailer, but that is no big deal. Also, If you would like more information on the game, check out our previous posts.

I have been playing the beta for Requiem: Bloodmare for a couple of weeks now, and it is indeed a pretty interesting game to say the least. While I am still new to the realm of MMOs, this is definitely not one for teenagers. When Gravity Interactive stated that this was an “adult” oriented MMO they weren’t kidding around one bit.

Requiem: Bloodymare portrays a post-apocalyptic world where genetic manipulation and dark magic have resulted in war, famine and truly grotesque monsters. Players take the role of the genetically-enhanced and magically-adept Temperion soldiers, powerful beings who hold the last best hope for Ethegia.

For more information about the game, check out our previous posts and check out these new screens and see for yourself what all the fuss is about.

The newest trailer for Gravity Interactive’s horror based MMO is bloody violent. I mean that in the most complimentary sense though, because I am honestly looking forward to trying out Requiem: Bloodymare, especially now that I have my beta key. Watching the latest collage of action shots from the game with some nice, angry, metal music in the background pumped me up for it even more than the last trailer, and since the beta starts today, my weekend is pretty much planned out for me. Since I am starting to get the hang of what to expect out of an MMO, and also add to the fact that I am no longer prejudiced towards them, this could be just what the doctor ordered.

Good news for those of you who are interested in Gravity Interactive’s Requiem: Bloodymare, the horror based MMORPG. Today, the Closed Beta begins, and hopefully everyone who signed up on the site got their codes. If not, don’t get discouraged, because on Friday, Feb. 29, MMORPG.com and MMOSITE.com will also have a number of codes available on a first come, first served basis.

Also, for those that registered on the official website but didn’t get a code, Gravity Interactive will offer another chance to participate in the closed beta. As space allows, the company will randomly select from the pool of registered accounts and grant them access as the beta period progresses - so keep your fingers crossed.

Gravity Interactive’s Joon Yoon, Marketing/Public Relations Coordinator, and Bohle’s Derek Asato, Vice President, took time at GDC to give MMORPG a first look at their new adult MMO, Requiem: Bloodymare. Apparently, Age of Conan won’t be the only adult oriented MMO coming out. Requiem promises to live up what most gamers expect from an adult title; scantily clad warrior women, rampaging skeletons and zombies, and general Hell on virtual world.

…as the name suggests, its very bloody and very gory. Every swing of our character’s sword produced a spray of blood; deaths were heralded by flying limps and, on rare occasions, I was treated to the sight of creatures cut clear in half.

Players will role-play genetically engineered super soldiers in a post apocalyptic world of high magic, advanced technology and horrific monsters. Read the full impression on MMORPG.

We have been covering the new horror based MMO from Gravity Interactive Requiem: Bloodymare since January and while the premise of the game sounds wonderful, the new screens did nothing more than gross me out a bit.

It is high time that more horror based games were made, and by more I mean GOOD ones. Requiem: Bloodymare is promising to bring much needed blood and horror onto the MMO scene, but after looking at these new screens I am wondering how soon it will be before we are tired of hacking up meaty, vein-laden hunks of monsters that look like raw hamburger meat with miscellaneous body parts. Hopefully, the game will have more that just Clive Barker inspired entities. With this in mind, I am still planning on giving the game a shot.

Gravity Interactive have released the official trailer for their upcoming “M” rated horror themed MMO Requiem: Bloodymare. Although still excited about this title, I am a bit disappointed that the trailer does not depict the blood and gore they have promised us. The screenshots they sent us last week looked so promising - full of decapitations, fountains of blood gushing forth from your foes, scantily clad drowish looking creatures, and disgusting monsters hell-bent on devouring your person. Why in the world did they not show this in the trailer? There is hardly anything shown in this video that warrants and “M” rating - you see tons of magic and hit effects flying about, and maybe once in a while a few blood droplets hit the camera - but that is it. Instead of a gratuitous blood soaked fightfest we get a video that is a bit blurry, the colors are washed out and the action happens so fast that one can scarcely blink lest something is missed.

Hopefully the next trailer they send us will be much better than this one - and by “better” I am hoping that it shows brighter colors, better editing, and more blood. If you are interested in seeing any other videos from this MMO, YouTube has a few character creation videos and a gameplay clips posted. I would have put them on here, but I do not know if they are “unauthorized” clips or legitimately ok to post. You view them here, and while we are on the subject of Bloodymare, you can check out our previous posts on the game by clicking here.

On Saturday, Gravity Interactive sent us a press release regarding their upcoming MMO Requiem: Bloodymare, which promises to bring a bit of horror and nightmarish combat to online gaming. As promised, they have sent us some screens for the game and while they are impressive looking, I have to admit I was most pleased to see the body parts flying. Looking over these screens, you will understand immediately why this title is geared towards a mature audience, what with the decapitations, dismemberments, and pints and pints of blood. Nice.

Not only are the battle scenes graphically pleasing, the screens showing the nightmarish creatures that roam during the night and the shots showing off the visual differences between night and day in a city location, give you an overall pleasing first impression. Now, we only have to wait until March rolls around to finally delve first hand into the gameplay - and hopefully, it will be as gratifying as the screenshots. Gravity Interactive have promised us a trailer in the near future, so check back often to see what wonderful horrors lie in wait.

Gravity Interactive has decided to take a radically different direction from its past titles with the launch in March 2008 of Requiem: Bloodymare. This MMO which melds elements of horror, fantasy and sci-fi has been designed for a mature audiences only and promises to supply gamers with an intense bevy of violence and death. Hooray! Hurry up March!

In a world where the misuse of science and magic has warped the natural world into a twisted vision of death, the game is set in the land of Ethegia, where players take on the role of the Temperions. These beings were created, through genetic engineering and arcane rites, to engage in bloody combat with the walking nightmares stalking the land. Putting the Havok engine to use, Requiem: Bloodymare tells the sad, twisted tale of a realm where fallout from generations of scientific and mystical warfare has polluted the natural world and given birth to horribly mutated monsters. The battles between players and these grotesque creatures are rendered through sequences of bloody and gory graphics.

“We’ve dedicated more than four years of intense development to be sure Requiem: Bloodymare really brings something unique in the MMO market.” Peter Kang, CEO, Gravity Interactive, said. “We very consciously decided [that] when we started the project, we wanted to diversify our offering to include much more than the cute, anime inspired gameplay of our previous hits. Requiem isn’t a game for kids; this is for mature players that are looking for hardcore content that conjures up their deepest nightmares and fears.”

An interesting thing to note about Requiem: Bloodymare, is that it will bring several game mechanics into play that are a bit different than what some MMO players are used to. The time of day will be an extremely important factor for players under the ‘Nightmare System’ with powerful creatures awakening to terrorize the world at night. To defeat these challenges, players will be able to draw upon the ‘DNA System’ and the ‘Beast Possession System’ and use genetic engineering to modify their own DNA to obtain characteristics and abilities nature never intended. The mystic arts will enable players to possess and transform into different bestial beings with extraordinary abilities.

This sounds like an MMO I can get on board with, even if the teaser on the website did little to try and sway me one way or the other. A blood-soaked, intense, horror-based MMO is something that gamers like me have been in need of for quite some time. Gravity Interactive have assured us that screenshots and an actual trailer are headed our way soon, and when those assets hit our inboxes, we will be posting them asap. So check back often for more updates, and in the meantime, you can go over to the official website and view the teaser for yourself.
