Hellgate: London

First up, theres an awesome cinematic trailer up for this (get the hi-res one)

I was really excited about this, a futuristic Diablo-alike made by ex-Blizzard employees. Screenshots looked good, the ideas and developer blurb sounded great.
However the video's I've seen looked decidedly "meh". Seems wooden and the weapons seem extremely puny. There seems to be no oomph to the gameplay, no excitement.

Anyone else following its development?

Bump - games out in March, apparently.

But they've just announced its going to be subscription based, for an instanced half-MMO game in a similar style to D2/Guild Wars.
