Mabinogi 2

Eep. It better be good.

:f6: Isn't Vindictus AKA "Mabinogi Heroes" Mabinogi 2?

Although I suppose it's a prequel really. A third one seems unusual though.

Yes, Vindictus is Mabinogi Heroes but it isn't Mabinogi 2. I can't seem to remember where I saw this but I'm fairly certain they're not the same game.

Mabinogi: Heroes is a prequel to Mabinogi. I never played Mabinogi, although I made an attempt but Nexon Europe made it impossible for me.
The characters in Mabinogi II will be a lot more realistic, perhaps even more in than in Mabinogi Heroes.

There aren't a lot of videos/screenshots shown to the public except to staff members internally talking about development & code and stuff.

 Spoiler

There will be a Mabinogi II and it I'm guessing this product will be shown along with the sequel to MapleStory in November.
I've played Heroes and I am actually way more interested in Mabinogi II.

I love(d) mabinogi but vindictus sucks by comparison. Mabi 2 might be pretty darn awesome.
