how much do I have to pledge to change the name to Call of Sarengar?

Because that’s how I say it in my mind. Every. Single. Time!
I'm sure Saregnar will find a special place, just for you.

P.S. What is done is done ;)

Found a small mistake in the video, fixed it

I kid. I'm excited about this, BaK was amazing and it's always struck me as strange that the formula didn't find more success.

just played the demo, and it was fun, wishlisted and looking forward to it. a few things; if there is no fatigue or stamina mechanic, why give the option to run and not have the running speed the default? there's no penalty other than a sore pinkie for constantly running. also, was not a fan of the invisible walls around rivers and cliffs that were part of the play area. example is the ruined temple, the cliff closest to the temple leads to the road, but have to go all the way around to the road because of the wall. if i wanna jump off a cliff and break a leg, that's my problem.

Seems like there are no fantasy creatures and you're just fighting human bandits etc:(
For now. Still, no slimes, giant rats, etc. I have mythological beings in the universe, just give them time to materialize ;)

Got stamina/endurance implemented in combat now, coming in a future demo. Got togglable run too. Due to the massive scope and other annoyances, the invisible walls are most probably staying though.

Thanks for playing!

I dunno, getting some guy in an Orc costume and then photographing him to be a sprite would be so nostalgic. I think Stonekeep did similar things with puppets and real actors:

A quarter of the people in this thread will likely be dead before this game is released. Best to just keep that in mind and not get too excited. Rhuantavan has always been upfront about it and he's great in general about keeping hype down. He at no point wants to feel rushed while creating what is a dream he's pulling into reality, which is great. Just never put it in early access!

Wonder how this game looks like to anyone who never heard of Betrayal at Krondor
Probably like a better attempt at a remake of Realms of Arkania than the HD version.....but then, if they haven't heard of and played Betrayal at Krondor would they have heard of and played Realms of Arkania?

Most seem to associate it with Daggerfall and M&M6/7. Those who haven’t played BaK, that is.
except combat. for the few i did fight, i liked it. turn based is always a move in the right direction, and the fact it's hexed is pretty based.
Combat is grate. It's not as complex and full of options like, say, D:OS but a blobber that switches to an isometric, grid based combat is always appreciated.

Always wondered why more blobbers don't do it.
