    Might And Magic 6 - 7 - 8 / Wizardry 8 meets Solasta... seems like a very good idea that should work quite well.

    It looks interesting, I'm glad the combat switches to turn based like that. I will have to look at it.

    So happy you made a video about this. The dev also made Exiled Kingdoms, which is an old school RPG worth checking out if you ever have time this year.

      Shame it's a dead genre now. Devs either go too deep and use turn-based and tile-based movement and combat or do top-down CRPGs. The real-time RPG with possible turn-based combat of MM6-MM9 is now just dead for some reason, despite the fact that it would be more approachable to masses than a run-of-the-mill dungeon crawler.

    Good game, just started letsplaying it - the best part so far is that it really has Might & Magic vibes. Also combination of first person exploration and turn-based combat may work good. And the main part for me - there are secrets and skill to find something awesome in dungeons - I love that stuff. Let's hope for fruitful development progress on this one, rare genre and really promising game!

    This looks so up my alley! Basically the same way the last Kings Bounty game did it with the first person exploration and the switch to turn-based battles, I LOVE that concept! Had a lot of fun with Kings Bounty despite its flaws, imo the reviews are way too harsh on that one.

    • @tmzFRM
      @tmzFRM Před 5 měsíci

      What are your criteria for calling a game a CRPG? Because some of the biggest releases of the last years were classified as CRPGS and weren't turn based - in fact, BG3 being turn based was considered a huge risk.
      Also: if your just saying last year non turn based RPGs weren't good, that's another question.

  • @zeterzero4356
    @zeterzero4356 Před 5 měsíci

    I'm really interested in this one. Seems like it combines a lot of the stuff I'd want to see in a game like this from first person exploration, to turn based grid style combat, and the biggest thing is letting me build an entire party from the get go. The art also looks great though the character models still need a little work. Or a lot of work. Listen the mechanic have me hype so I can look past the jank. I'm looking forward to seeing where this game goes and thanks for the video!

    I'm intrigued by the idea of FP exploration and top-down turn based combat.
    I've often thought that the FP perspective is used best in "walking sims" and other investigative (non-combat) games...And would love to see that in a RPG.

    It's more than just "interesting" - as he says here. The game absolutely oozes atmosphere and it's clear that, with it's depthful lore base and really well-written dialogue, this could become a truly brilliant game. The developer is super friendly and is making almost daily patches to the game at the moment.

  • @dekay1428
    @dekay1428 Před 5 měsíci

    I don't know if it is late for me to ask this but can you check out Back to the Dawn. It is in early access as well but is really flushed out as a prison survival RPG and I spent hours on it being both mad at myself for my idiocy and also impressed. There is only one finished story while the other is currently still developed until full release.

    Even BG3 doesn't do it for some reason, having the view depend on your hardware instead, a baffling decision

    I got excited up until the grid based combat. Seriously, BG3 and Rogue Trader are an absolute slogs, and they attracted me DESPITE the TBC. I almost feel that oldschool style first person combat would save the dev alot of development time and give more resources to feed into the campaign development.
