What people think about PoE doesn't really matter since Tranny is made by a different team.

Don't be like people such as FreeKaner that think a game is made by a disembodied entity called Obsidian instead of being made by a team of people, he thinks all Obsidian games will be good even though everyone credited for them being good is gone (MCA, Ziets, Gonzalez, Fenstermaker, etc)

Are they just running the first hour again? Not worth my time if it's the same shit Obsidian has already streamed.

The people you mentioned were nobodies once as well. Although going from his weight the guy in Tyranny's development team will probably die before the game is released.

Nothing new was said or done in Conquest - right now almost all the possible Conquest options have been shown in the streams.

Bronze age is a boring part of history in terms of aesthetics. I am glad they went for bronze age society but more fantasy aesthetics.
Actually there is great architecture and art at that time, on Mesopotamia alone, each city from Ur to Babylon had their own culture and art. I find the fantasy element the weakest part of this game.

Darklands on sumerian lands would be cool. Something like Conan or Dark Sun would be better.

Over the top fantasy always make me cringe, I think the fantasy part is clashing hard with the bronze age thing.

Keep in mind that the Oldwalls and Spires are the remnants of some ancient civilization. Some kind of sci-fi-ish "Atlantean" culture?

No you misunderstood me, I actually do like bronze age, just not the aesthetics of it, mainly clothing and architecture. Assyrians alone deserve their own RPG game, it's a very unexplored area of history in terms of media.
