[Hobo Elf]

Needs more demo so I can see for myself how the combat is still a boring shitfest.

 

[Jaesun]

FUCK YEAH!

 

[Sisay]

I didn't mind the walk speed or the combat but I really hope they've worked a bit on the writing and quest design.

 

[Piety]

FUCK YEAH!

 

[Konjad]

awesome!

 

[Cabeca Grande]

If they upped the walking speed and got rid of those damn bees, I'm all for this (and possibly fix the random loot generator). In particular, weather effects actually affecting gameplay sounds really cool, and I'm happy about the increased resolution along with the various difficulty modes (food and water requirement an optional challenge? hell yes). The first game was really well done. I am not happy about the achievements page, though, and tracking portcullis kills along with some of those other "game stats" just seems juvenile.

 

[madbringer]

Grate !1

 

[Country_Gravy]

FUCK YEAH!

 

[Clockwork Knight]

yo ho ho, set sail for the bay, me hearties

 

[Serious_Business]

Fuck no, first one sucked and fuck you

 

[Saxon1974]

Yes! really like many of the changes made so I think im gonna love this one.

 

[Archaeon]

Fuck no, first one sucked and fuck you

 

[Elwro]

I'll buy the Linux version and then bitch that it doesn't work with all the unofficial packages in development versions I have installed.

 

[Zeus]

America!

FUCK YEAH!

 

[Texas Red]

If they upped the walking speed and got rid of those damn bees

This needs to stop. I doubt anyone has ever enjoyed fighting wolves, boars, giants ants and other shit like that.

 

[JudasIscariot]

FUCK YEAH!

 

[Humanity has risen!]

Can't wait for this one!

 

[asper]

I'll buy the Linux version and then bitch that it doesn't work with all the unofficial packages in development versions I have installed.

 

[SuicideBunny]

first one got boring rather fast. think i'll skip this one at least 'till someone does an extensive let's play or it leaks on the seven seas.

 

[Melcar]

I'll buy the Linux version and then bitch that it doesn't work with all the unofficial packages in development versions I have installed.

Only problem I have with the Linux build is libstdc++5, which is easy enough to resolve. That and sound in 64bit systems (library mismatch).
