Correct the teams are located in seperate offices. The creator of Fate was offered a chance to develop mythos. He worked alone on the project for sometime until FSS allowed him to hire new employees to help him out. Although the FSS team helps them when they need help the majority of the work is done by the mythos team.
Mythos will be an ongoing project and will continue to grow in content. So far the third zone will be released. And I believe 5 zones are expected in total. So don't judge mythos based on it's alpha beta stage.
I believe you are correct about the offices. That's why I don't believe it would be accurate to say the team behind Diablo is the one developing the game. I don't have an exact reference so I can't claim that for truth. I'm going to assume you are registered in the official Mythos forums with 327 posts? I know Tbaldree has mentioned several times that the support for Mythos would be ongoing. So I'm not sure if they're aiming for 5 zones, or just constantly plan to grow. Anyone who has played it, got a taste of what? Like a zone or two? It's like playing the SC2 with just the terran race available. Obviously it's going to be a grind. They currently only have support up to level 20.. They plan on implementing a ton of more fun features. It's a game I'm looking forward too anyways. Once again. Gameplay = DiabloII.
Neither of us really know how much each team contributes. So I suppose it's more of a stale mate if I try to argue. It's being released under Flagship but developed by the Seattle team(I think). Yeah...
It's strange how Blizzard have managed to create a reputation for only releasing games when they are ready and if they are good enough yet Flagship, the devs who made Diablo 2, managed to tarnish their reputation with the first game that they put out.
I'll probably try Mythos but I'm not at all excited by it as so far every game that Flagship have released has been poor.
They've only released one game?
Flagship is founded by the D2 fathers. Mythos is being developed by the developers of Fate, the single player rpg.
I could go on and on about all of the similar qualities that it has to diablo 2.
The interface is completely identical. Health on the bottom left, Mana on the bottom right. Item slots on the bottom. Left click skill, right click skill. A skill tree with 3 different trees per class. Stats screen is pretty much the same. The action is very diabloII. It's quick and relies heavily on AOE. Rare items, Special items, Set items.
I've played through the beta a few different times. I've experienced no lag. No there isn't a single player. I've never played single player on d2 or starcraft. So I don't notice it.
The theme is more lighter, the graphics are a bit cutesy. It's the only game I've found that has the closest gameplay functionality as diablo2.
Yeah I just read that last night too. I'm really surprised more of this forum isn't interested in the game. It pratically has the same exact gameplay functionality as diabloII.

Don't be embaressed. You thought they had more than 1 release. It's ok..
