Gondolin this game actually looks interesting and has a gorgeous UI, but your post does it no favors. This isn’t an image board, and most of us aren’t zoomers. We like text and images, not videos intended to maximize monetization through drawn out length.

video was OK, but this isn’t how you introduce a game to the codex.

Maybe, but it's up to anyone who clicks on this thread to watch 30 seconds of that video and decide whether they are interested or not. If they are, they can just google the game.

You want text and images? Post them yourself.

Fair description, but also an old school aversion to simple/easy presentation that doesn’t tell you anything. Videos are a horrible time waster for the consumer, but immensely convenient as a transmission medium.

It's done by the same guy who also made Hammerfight. That was a fun 2D game of steampunk flying contraptions swinging massive swords, flails and whatnot at each other. A bit rough around the edges in some ways, but the action was quite fun. Bodes well for this game, I guess.

Kinda like Homeworld but fighting in near-space instead of deep-space.

Could be very interesting. Especially if we can fight over sky of familiar cities. Battle over the Manhattan London Paris Warsaw Beijing Shanghai Tokyo and nuke them yourself?

I will have to agree with Gondolin here. You guys are a bunch of pussies. You know you have the choice of NOT watching a yt video, or did the Codex suddenly prefer a linear experience and is unable to press the Steam link on their own initiative?

The presentation is top notch, the gameplay I'm not sure I like it, it doesnt look like something with enough depth to hold my interest for long.

Take this shit to reddit, we ain't going to watch some retarded video.

You're trying too hard. It's a fucking hour long video showing you gameplay, there's nothing wrong with it you pretentious dumbfuck. Go google some pics if that's what you want.

You don't have to watch it all, you know? People usually just scroll at random parts of the video to see the actual gameplay, takes like a couple of minutes. Sound is muted if whoever talking in the video had too much soy for breakfast

Screenshots and text description or bust. "Hai guise drop everything and look at this cool video" is fucking tiktok tier of presenting a game.

That's one way to convince me to click on a jewtube link out of the blue, yes.

Wasn't this in the Tactics subforum? Why was it moved?
I posted my thread in tactics without noticing it was already in strategy. Personally I think this is tactics material, but aside from the nifty UI it may be a bit too simply to be there, so might as well leave it in gaming for now.

Whew. The tutorial alone is like 1h. It is pretty cool, but I have to say that some elements of the gameplay and UI will probably get old fast.

Konstantin is a pretty cool guy:


Protip, if they don't change it for the release:
Dont spend all your cash in the tutorial, that is your budget for the real campaign.
