Welcome to Project: Gorgon!


Project: Gorgon is a 3D fantasy MMORPG (massively-multiplayer online role-playing game) that features an immersive experience that allows the player to forge their own path through exploration and discovery. We won't be guiding you through a world on rails, and as a result there are many hidden secrets awaiting discovery. Project: Gorgon also features an ambitious skill based leveling system that bucks the current trend of pre-determined classes, thus allowing the player to combine skills in order to create a truly unique playing experience.

The Project: Gorgon development team is led by industry veteran Eric Heimburg. Eric has over a decade of experience working as a Senior and Lead Engineer, Developer, Designer and Producer on successful games such as Asheron’s Call 1 and 2, Star Trek Online and other successful Massively Multiplayer Online Games.

    Words of Power

    I am incredibly disappointed to discover that WOP you research can be used by other players. This makes them, for me, fundamentally useless. Since they are for the most part useful in specific situations, but not universally useful, it makes sense to research and save them. I did this. And now am discovering half have already been used by someone else.

    I hope that this will be addressed before launch and was simply a time-saving mechanic for overworked devs.

    Words of Power can be very powerful, if used in the right circumstances. But yeah they cannot be saved, although WoP 5 last longer, at least for me.

    There was a thread on this a couple months back: https://forum.projectgorgon.com/show...it-of-venting) . Sadly, most of it devolved into venting, but there are a few interesting posts in it.

    I've been avoiding words of power since I started playing precisely because I knew that other players could research the same word. I have a tendency to hoard things until I really need them - which can be months in the future or never - so having a word with a random "soon" expiration date isn't all that useful to me. I played around with WoPs a bit for Pennoc's quest and it was fun, but I quickly discovered that useful teleports I'd been saving for just a couple days were already expired by the time I wanted to use them. So, it's not something I really want to experiment much with on my own right now without having more incentives...

    WoPs are just a fun aside.

    BTW, there are versions of WoPs where you write them into a scroll in game, and in that way, they can be saved (as they're not generated until the scroll is read).
