Yes, you read right. Underrail, the game that's so good that its release date actually gets moved earlier. From the latest development update:

Hi guys. Just a quick update to let you know we're moving release date forward to December 18th. Everything else remains as stated earlier.

Also, we did a much needed new trailer for the release. Enjoy.



Just one week left!

Does this mean we can ban anyone talking about the new SW at release? Knowing what they weren't doing when they watched.

I would estimate a first playthrough at around 40+ hours but might be longer as we havent seen the endgame yet.

The writing is not going to blow you away but it isnt worse than writing in the majority of other games, with the added benefit of being quite straight and to the point in most instances.

This new trailer reflects better the current state of the game and its new locations, but I still prefer the older trailer made by felipepe.

Combat systems, crafting, variety of builds, lots of perks, exploration, post-apocalyptic atmosphere and 2D art.

Interestingly enough, a lot of people have complained about TOO much expository writing and dialogue in recent RPGs, and them just being a "clickfest" to wade through and advance the story.

Wasteland 2 suffers from this, Pillars of Eternity suffers ALOT from this, D:OS, Shadowun and perhaps even AoD to a lesser extent.

Underrail does away with a lot of that, and just gets to the point, without losing flavour. This means the story and writing never gets annoying or gets boring to read through.

Meanwhile, the combat, setting and explorationary aspects are all top notch.
