Doesn't look that interesting as an MMO from just those videos (and honestly, as it's being developed by NCsoft I doubt it'll end up being very spectacular), but I'm extremely impressed by the art direction. The cutscenes were very smooth and the story seems to be an important element of the game. The way they used white and black to distinguish between the good guys and bad guys, the landscapes, the RAIN. The rain is done perfectly; it enhances the mood, the blurring in the distance looks excellent, and a few drops of it even land on the screen. Wow.
It's a PC MMO being released by NCsoft, the big MMO company in Korea (they made Aion and Guild Wars). Aion is subscription based and Guild Wars has always been pay-for-each-new-expansion which amounts to the same thing as a subscription. PC requirements for the game are about average for any current game.
NCsoft has always been great about making their games look great and feel responsive, but their ability to design and run an MMO is pretty awful. Though considering MapleStory's popularity that doesn't say much. I'll say that if you can stand Nexon's constant fuckups you'll actually love NCsoft. Aion is the most popular MMO in Korea atm.

NCsoft also made Lineage 2, which is old as pineapple

Hell, any three of those and I can't play it still. ;~;
