KickStarter SKALD: Against the Black Priory - retro RPG inspired by Ultima

[Tyranicon]

I think Skald is yet another victim to heavy feature creeping, which is unfortunate. Dude needs to put out a solid release date.

Game’s supposed to release in Spring, and he’s still iterating on itemization?

Of which year?

 

[AdolfSatan]

we’ve officially set a launch-date for spring 2024

Their own words. They didn’t specify which hemisphere, though.

Btw, I remember playing the very first demo, and actually enjoying it. He didn't really have to make all these changes.

A victim of feature creep.

I bought it already I thought. No.. that's the demo. My bad.

 

[Sweeper]

I'm making this post as a reminder for when the game releases.
When that happens I will quote this post ad nauseum and I'll bully all those who have shown a lack of faith.

I loved the demo they did back when, it was almost perfect as it was. I really loved the Ultima V, but slightly better looking aesthetic.

EDIT: The soundtrack though....passable.

It'd prolly already be bought if the option was available on GOG even if nothing there but a TBA. Some games I pull the itchy trigger finger.

So I went digging around and found out two interesting updates to the steam page.

First, the release date was changed in December:

Second, not sure what happened here :

How about just toning down the neon colors and lighting.

Why's there a brawl at the gay bar?

It's in a race with Star Citizen.

You got pretty close to the same vibes, except I was thinking it looked more like this.
