Heres a snippet about the game to those who dont know:

" Yasuhiro Wada's inspiration for the game came from him imagining a tool "that allows players to create a world, give it life, and observe the subsequent happenings" in a way that is reminiscent of SimEarth. However, like SimPeople, he wanted to introduce a first-person perspective, as if the gamer is watching things through the eyes of an inhabitant. However, Norikazu Yasunagano, creator of World Neverland on PSone back in 1997, has had some influence over the game and now things have expanded further than those two Sim games melded together. Now there will also be real-time action, in addition to the simulation and adventure aspects, and they are reportedly going to push the Wii to its limit.

In Project O[now named king story], the world creator view mode will be able to show numerous characters at the same time, each of them performing various duties and actions with unique AI being implemented for each.

Chatting with CVG, he's said the game will be a "single-player life-sim set in Europe". They're aiming for more than that, though: it's a god-sim of sorts, with your goal to shape the world around you...you just do it one conversation at a time.

...the player will select one person [to perform a task], and he will go off and talk to several other people, who will then start to change the world around the player.

Other tidbits include an emphasis on building up relationships with other characters in the game

No Wi-Fi or multiplayer features are planned, but the player will be able to download new content via the Wii's wireless online capabilities.

You can expect to see Project O[king story] to release some time next year under a different name. "

The Staff from Final Fantasy XII, Dragon Quest VIII, Harvest Moon and Chulip working on king story

IMO, it sounds VERY promising. Good to hear about WC24 features.

Here are some Pics of concept art:

Anyone else excited now?

It looks like it could be ok, the fact that they can add new content could keep it fun for awhile.

sounds interesting, but how is it any different from Animal Crossing? i never played AC, but it seems like a similar concept on lesser scale. i could be wrong. anyways, i kinda wish developes would stop w/ the gnome looking character designs... this looks like a cross between FF:CC and animal crossing... sorry dont mean to rant... but yeah, very interesting concept. good post.

Sounds interesting, not into the SIMS games but I'll look into this one. Would be pretty cool with Wii-mote and downlodable content. Hopefully we'll see more on it at E3.

I never knew that King Story was project O. I'm looking to it for sure. I really think the game is a 2008 title.

Interesting. Not saying it will be a bad game, just that it's not my type of game.

But still it's a interesting concept. Can make good use of the wiimote. Hope it turns out good.

I've heard of it. Quite a while ago. It just never really gained my interest. It looks good for the most part and has a good idea about it but I'll have to see some more info about it.

Anyone think we're going to hear more about this game at TGS 07? i hope so -- i've just been thinking about this game again. These are the types of games that need to be on the Wii. RTS, FPS, TPS, And Sports games really.
