It's way too soon for any hype

There is a loooot of work before having something fun to play with. Currently you can log into hawksmouth (it could be another map) without your items (just your appareance) and you can't see other players. The screen above is a more a "proof of concept", as the movements are not handled seeing other players immobile would not  be very interesting.

 

Edit: just wanted to add: being able to walk and chat with other players seems already interesting for me. Of course we want to go further but there is a lot of work, for instance on the data (where are the NPCs? which NPC gives which quest? What is the item related to that ID? etc) to be able to implements more advanced gameplay mechanics. So this will not be tomorrow ^^
