The Secret World is a game that is now being worked out by Funcom for years. For the business of design, has been started since 2002. But it had stopped for some time because Funcom preoccupation with Dreamfall and Age of Conan. Now after all that has been completed, they went back to work on The Secret World again.

The Secret World has several names that are being developed and one of them is the Cabal which is a reference about what kind of game. Funcome is trying to trying to escape from the usual elements such as sword and sorcery and all that type of fantasy. This game will bersettingkan in the real world such as London, New York and Seoul. Of course there will be another element that replaces the sword and the fantasy element. Gamers will be confronted with the paranormal phenomena on the loose in the dark. Ragnar Tornquist from Funcom shows some of the main ideas used by the development team of The Secret World ranging from vampires, Merovingians, Stonehenge and Titan





Ragnar also showed a video of The Secret World of other gamers can already see yourself on the internet. In the video shown anything like this. An ordinary man in the original world is doing their daily activities. Suddenly, he met with something truly paranormal or supernatural. It has been ascertained that this game will focus on the fight. This game can also be quite interesting because here there will be no classes as the game is not available generally, and even ordinary experience that is always present in any MMO game today. Instead, you can provide different capabilities into your character and if you want, you can also reset the status of your character anytime you want. Then you also do not need to create a character that is really new. You only need to choose your character and change according to your wishes.
Everything was done in order to not use a trend that is always used in online gaming in general (around the world, kill enemies, collect experience up to a certain point so that you can level up.) But this trend, too, who usually becomes the main reason why a gamer can play an MMO game for weeks and even months. Funcom effort to try to get rid of such elements and how the results can still be seen until now. According to Ragnar, one of the advantages of removing this trend is the lower level adjacent gamers who do not need to bother to pursue other fellow gamers who already berlevel high. Ragnar says, the difference in level of gamers who are far from one another is not a problem anymore.

So in fact the secret world of what is in this game? According to Ragnar, the world is not a parallel world or another world. "The world that we use here is a world that unfortunately is always ignored by the existence of mankind." The background of this story begins 100 million years in the past and connect all of the mysteries that exist in history. In the game, gamers are a man who has a hidden strength that has been "activated" to deal with the creatures that emerged from the darkness. The lack of class system and a flexible system capability means you can create a character in accordance with your shadow. The battle here will be more dynamic and interactive.


Interestingly, according to Ragnar, The Secret World is one of the first MMO game that is approved for sweeping the Xbox 360. Besides Final Fantasy XI's Square Enix, there is no other MMO game that is intended for the Xbox 360, at least until now. "They really wanted a an online game on their consoles, "said Ragnar, "but I'm not too sure if they know how to do it." Of course, Funcom has also said that Age of Conan will also stop by the Xbox 360 and Ragnar also said that there is a small team that is clearing the project. The problem with most is the high specification PC is required to play this game. Not too long after its release, many gamers are complaining because of the lack of high-quality gaming content.

The Secret World, according to Ragnar, designed as a cross-platform game and he remains firm with a statement saying that Funcom will not try to reduce the PC specifications required to play this game. He said that the PC version will definitely look better than the Xbox 360 version and will certainly be easier to do everything using a PC than using the Xbox 360 such as chat.

Ragnar also stated that this game is a project with a very big budget. Ragnar says that today the game is in process of filling sound by using more than 100 actors and they have recorded all the cities in the world, including New York and London. Somewhat-somewhat similar to the adventure game from Funcom, Dreamfall filling sound that has drawn from all over the world.
