KickStarter Legends of Aethereus

[Saxon1974]

Didnt see any discussion on this game here....looks kind of interesting. Says it has a single player campaign but seems more intended for multiplayer 4 people co-op.

The combat and crafting system looks interesting. 6 days to go not sure it's gonna makie funding.

Looks weird. The name is just terrible, though.

Screenies look slightly interesting. Vibrant and colorful. I'm getting some Two Worlds vibes from this, which isn't necessarily bad. If they can pull off a more polished version of TW1 then they would end up with a decent enough game. And I guess it's sort of cool to have a kickstarter game with something tangible to show instead of just some vague concept art that won't make the proper transition into game graphics anyway.

 

[CarnivalBizarre]

Looks like a small piece of inclince for sure. Not my kind of game though really, but I might pick it up if it becomes reality.

 

[CarnivalBizarre]

Or maybe... kickstarter anxiety setting in or

 

[CarnivalBizarre]

50 bucks... yeah. It's only money. No mexican gardeners this month then...

 

[Jaesun]

Legends of Aethereus is a high action, low fantasy RPG with four player co-op and a variety of PvP game types.

 

[CarnivalBizarre]

It's a ARPG, so yeah. But the character system and such seems nice anyway. Cooperative ARPG usually works well in making time fly.

 

[Hobo Elf]

Eh, I think online play is unnecessary, and in this case could be a bad thing. I don't think a small studio should waste resources on online aspects especially since online will be dead within a month after release. Better to put the money and time where it really matters: the single player game.

Legends of Aethereus Bed Sheets

 

[Phelot]

Those bedsheets will impress the girls.

Looked like it had some kind of tower defense stuff mixed in?

It does look interesting, though I'm a lone wolf and don't like coop.

 

[CarnivalBizarre]

It seems they reached their 25k goal now at least.

The automated system sends out a few at a time but everybody should receive their information within the next 24 hours.
Once you receive your information there is an online check for the activation keys but once you have successfully activated the game you will be able to play LoA in SP or MP LAN offline and DRM free.
LoA is available for: Linux, Windows and Mac and the versions are completely compatible. So feel free to team-up across OS platforms.
We have been hard at work incorporating the special Kickstarter features within LoA and we are planning a patch that should add the last of those features by Thursday July 25th. We are looking forward to your feedback so we can keep adapting and improving the features so that they deliver a great gaming experience.

We really appreciate your support and hope you enjoy the game!

Holy...




Why is this in Classic RPG? At best it looks like an MMO.

 

[pakoito]

Color me impressed, I was expecting utter shit and it only looks average o even decent.

EDIT



Is combat better than Skyrim's?

 

[PosledniKovboj]

Not sure yet, game crashes before I can even make it to the first quest.

 

[Gambler738]

Huh. Looks like it could be alright ARPG, though I'm tempted to think why this when I already own mount and blade?

 

[Infinitron]

Well, it's out: http://store.steampowered.com/app/248410/

“Legends of Aethereus’ Combat Looks MEATY”

Lol. 'LOOKS' -- like that review is based on not even playing it. What it 'looks like' is a low-budget Amalur.

 

[Corporate_Jew_Master]

Sorta interested.

Anyone played the final product? Thoughts?

 

[Name]

So the highlight point of the game is combat physics?

 

[subotaiy]

Huh. Looks like it could be alright ARPG, though I'm tempted to think why this when I already own mount and blade?

From that video, combat looks already better than M&B.

 

[Corporate_Jew_Master]

Fuck it, gonna take one for the team and give it a go.

 

[pakoito]

We salute you, brave scout. Please come back alive.
