Short interview in the latest issue of Dragon+: https://dnd.dragonmag.com/2019/12/13/in-the-worksdark-alliance/content.html

Dark Alliance

“My favorite thing about the game is that we’ve designed it to be super accessible but also deep.

Yeah, that fills me with confidence this will be any good...

 

[LESS T_T]

Well I think that was the point of Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance anyway.

Kind of my point... it's going to be even easier than the original?!!

Drizzt kinda looks like Greta Thunberg.

That camera work is hilarious. Who thought this was a good idea?

Wizards (of the coast)

Gender Wizards of the West Coast more like.

Also, whoever is responsible for that trailer should have his whole family tree eradicated.

They have already dropped out of the possibility of reproduction by having child therefore there is no need to eradicate their families. And that is the reason why they are after some else's children and try to infect them via desinformation. Therefore they have to be contained and isolated from human society so that this infection does not spread to other healthy individuals. And the health individuals have to inoculated to have a good herd immunity against this mental disease.

Has anyone mentioned New Shit?

Hi.

gosh. Gosh! GOSH!

Like wtf right?

okay, OKAY! When I first saw the twitter post by those who run D&D I was excited and it brought back all those old time memories of rolling and rerolling characters for hours on end as you look for the best outcome to make the leader of your party even though you probably already know you will come across other members who can balance out a bad roll but who wants to play a character with bad stats right? Right?

Gosh the first warning was French Canadian but do you think I took the time to see the error of their choice? No ofc not right? Blinded by the thought of Icewind Dale 3 or perhaps a brand new party adventure set in the northern cold regions just like that Canadian city, did I come to think the developers would embrace such a fantastic region to unwind a story full of depth and party development? WTF okay? OKAY!?

Do not trust French Canadians okay? OKAY??

They are not true french like those in France. Their entire language is based on slang and swear words and that is not even attractive and it shows in this French Canadian trailer where they think Drizzt is some hockey God named Joseph Jean Arthur Béliveau or Maurice "Rocket" Richard swinging his swords like wooden hockey sticks that are as wooden as the character okay? Like WTF who is I know right? The ship to the rocks is what this company is doing sailing straight for the bullseye of sinking.

Gosh! Everyone has already played Gauntlet in 1985. Everyone has already played Gauntlet 2 from 1986. Everyone has already played Gauntlet The Deeper Dungeon from 1987. Everyone has already played Gauntlet the Third Encounter from 1990. Everyone has already played Gauntlet 3 The Final Quest from 1991. Everyone has already played Gauntlet Legends from 1998. Everyone has already played Gauntlet Dark Legacy in 2000! Everyone has already played Gauntlet Seven Sorrows in 2005.

No one cares! No one wants to play Gauntlet D&D okay? OKAY?!

French Canadians. You ruin everything! Separate already and go wipe your asses with the hand you eat with, and stop ruining D&D. Okay? OKAY?!

Tabernac!

Thanks,
Sherry

Speaking of Greta, just watching that trailer gave me, my already born kids, and my future grandchildren autism.

Drizzt kinda looks like Greta Thunberg.

That's a lot of east asian mailorder brides.

 

[Israfael]

Will this game beat out the unbeatable Demon Stone as the "best" D&D game? Seems to be a strong contender

Despite these two specimens above, metal music is the least of anyone's worry.

For one thing, almost nobody like fantasy-theme music. And finding a suitable fantasy-theme music for a teaser video is like finding gold under an ocean of sludge~ A heavy metal piece is not a problem.

For another, this is a fucking teaser for purpose of attracting attentions from potential buyers of game, not a PR piece for Renn Faire goers~! For fuck's sake. Purpose, purpose, purpose!

If you want to complain, complain about that fast action/movement in the teaser that make it more like a real time hack and slash game. The last time such a thing attempt in DnD it's not so good.

It's a game for the average worker commuting to work, playable through Lagstadia to your phone anywhere anytime!

The marvels of modern tech!

It's encouraging though that we got the *This is the new Shit* trailer in 2009 and now its successor in 2019.

Can't wait for what 2029 holds in store for us.

Ironically, it isn't the 'new shit' as I believe Cattie Brie is using her bow - so it's set before the sundering. I suppose Catie Brie as a Cleric/Mage would have been a pain in the ass to make an action game out of.

Just using your post to point something out. And yes, I read some of the books.

 

[Tito Anic]

YES, always dreamt about it

That trailer... What a good time to be alive.

Paging Humanity has risen! .

 

[Pablosdog]

what the fuck was that? The nu metal, the hilarious animations, the cringy and stupid-looking character models.


That looked like a trailer for something in like 2005. Like some Brotherhood of Steel tier shit. Who the fuck was in charge of their marketing department lol?

But Josh was so young!

He was so young!

 

[Norfleet]

I feel like this game is aiming for an audience that doesn't exist. I mean, what kind of people play D&D vidya games in the first place? People who want to play D&D, but HAVE NO FRIENDS. Now you want to make a co-op version so you need friends to play? If people who played D&D vidya games HAD FRIENDS, they would ACTUALLY BEING PLAYING D&D.

 

[The_Mask]

Tabernac!

It's actually "tabarnak" - ironically it adds to the humour, rather than extracting from it. Much like you missing the correct spelling, the authors of this trailer are missing much about life.
