This appeals to my hipster sensibilities, will purchase and play. :)
We know you have shit taste, yes.
It's wonderful taste. Look at all these boys afraid of a woman with a big sword.

ITT Kodeksia does try too hard.

The weird sword thingie, the slightly surreal art, and all the red eyes did win me over quite effortessly. At least it is not another shooter about soldiers nor another rpg about dudes in armor. Meh. If this bleep is 'hipster' then I welcome our new thick framed glasses wearing overlords. It does look pretty cool.

Bastion was one of the few ARPGesque games I enjoyed so I imagine I'll probably enjoy this one.

Female protagonist?

Not buying.

Games really to need to stop pushing the jewish multicultural rule of woman being equal to men.

I really hate what men have become.

That's why many of them will be purged when the revolution comes

The music in the trailer was shit, but the city and the artstyle looked ok. Not a fan of that big sword as it looks retarded, then again, I don't really care that much,

Are you really talking about H'n'S with huge swords and are you thinking it's gonna be good? The only true H'n'S 4 codexer is Stone Soup :obviously:

Who cares, there are 90% percent chances that the mechanics will be shit as with every fucking cRPG ever made.

Could someone change the title into something that does not give me false hope that is immediately brutally crushed when I remember this is not a sci-fi RPG after all?

The art direction is good enough to draw my attention. Sadly I didn't like Bastion all that much, so this is not going to be my day one purchase. Maybe when the price reaches rock-bottom...

Looks exactly like Bastion - that is, a simple platform-ish game with lots of pretties, style and charm thrown on top. Worked for me at $15, but this particular style isn't as appealing. We'll see... maybe they actually design some gameplay in.

Didn't like bastion. this looks like bastion with worse music. Goes into the "can't be arsed" pile.

I thought Bastion was a flash platformer like the time-reverse indie game, this looks like either some kind of SRPG or a Diablo game. The stuff that could be platforming there looked like cutscenes.

Edit - My bad, Bastion looks like a Diablo game also. I played that Eastern European Diablo game with a woman protagonist like 6 years ago so I have about 9 years left until I will want to play a Diablo game again. And in 2014, forget about it, too many games.

From being a real time action game to pause > issue orders > orders get carried out by themselves? Only 1 weapon so they better put some bitchin customization on it otherwise it's :decline:.

Yeah, they've mixed it up which is good but at the moment it looks very simple and OP. Definitely is slick and pretty, but we'll see how much substance that combat system receives.
