The last time we posted about No Truce With The Furies was back in March, when the game's publisher arranged for a live gameplay broadcast at PAX East. It seemed then that ZA/UM's unusual RPG might be released this year as planned, but clearly that's not going to be the case. With the year coming to an end, the developers have put together a new X-mas '17 teaser trailer confirming that the game will be coming out sometime in 2018. Besides offering us our first new look at the game since PAX East, it also features some sick new music from British Sea Power. Check it out:

​

No Truce With The Furies has had a store page on Steam since May. It's got a new tagline as well - "Isometric RPG meets cop-show" - which doesn't really capture the game's weirdness either but at least is less confusing than "police procedural". The Steam page now appears to proclaim that "No Truce With Furies" itself is only a working title, so expect more changes I guess. Hopefully we'll see more of the game soon after the holidays.

Bummer, I quite liked it.

It isnt an rpg if it doesnt have combat...

 

[ArchAngel]

This trailer gave me epilepsy... but at least the music was good.

 

[undecaf]

It isnt an rpg if it doesnt have combat...

This of course is not true.

 

[Rinslin Merwind]

It isnt an rpg if it doesnt have combat...

This is absolutely not true. RPG means role-playing game, you can play role without combat by dialogue or action. Combat not even fucking a sign of RPG, shooters, strategy and even a puzzle can have combat too.

I hope they change name of the game, though. Because current name looks like title for game that silmillar to Postal of Punisher but with furriy colsplayers as victims.

This of course is not true.

Even if it was true, the game does have combat, it's just mediated through the dialogue box.

 

[MRY]

Probably "No Truce with the Furies" works better as a subtitle, given naming conventions these days.

 

[MSP]

So "No Truce with the Furries" is still a possibility?

 

[Fenix]

the music was good

 

[M. AQVILA]

No Truce With the Furries?

 

[CRD]

Can we play as a fox or a bunny?

which animals are the classes?

 

[Kev Inkline]

Glad the shitty narrator voice was minimized in this trailer, should be removed altogether, tbh.

 

[Prime Junta]

the music was good

Understatement.

 

[Fenix]

I prefer conservative estimates. )

 

[Irxy]

Looks boring and depressing. Just like Estonia.

 

[Kyl Von Kull]

I'm even more enthusiastic about this now than I was before the trailer, and I thought that was impossible. I didn't even know British Sea Power was still making music. Hail, ZA/UM!

Can we seriously stop with the lame furry jokes, though? If these guys need to ditch one of the coolest titles I've ever seen because some codexians have a bad sense of humor and/or know more about deviant sex than classical mythology, that would be very disappointing. Don't be a force for decline.

Are you saying we should stop furrying and love the title?

While I agree that the 'joke' has become very old; they did bring it upon themselves. If I called my new super awesome RPG "Roosterville: Adventures of a gay cock"; I can't expect that the internet/ya'll understand/accept this to be a kids game about a happy male chicken going on adventures.

 

[Junmarko]

It isnt an rpg if it doesnt have combat... strategy

Fixed.

 

[imweasel]

Every single RPG in the RPG Codex top 70 RPG list has combat and combat has been a convention of RPGs since D&D 1st Edition. So Kem0sabe is probably right, even if it makes some of you ANGRY.

That said, No Truce With The Furies resembles an adventure game because that is probably what it truly is. Hard to say what it really even is without having a good look at it though.

 

[J1M]

Trailer failed to inform even about which genre the furry game happens to... [fade to black].

 

[RNGsus]

Anarchy Cop as yet unconfirmed.

But the word furries is nowhere in the title. Hence my complaint about the woeful state of modern education. That or half the people here are dyslexic. Does nobody get forced to read Aeschylus anymore? The furies, as in the Greco-Roman goddesses of vengeance who punish parricides and oath breakers.

But there is combat, homeboy. You just give orders through the same box where you pick things to say, rather than on the map. Maybe we shouldn’t call it the dialogue box because it’s really more of a universal interface.

Not that different from older games like Wasteland.

I defy anyone to read about the attribute and skill system and then call this an adventure game.
