  1. Well what do you guys think? I've always been a fan of space-like games (old good Master of Orion versions) and I wanted to know if any of you actually own the game and how is it like. Cheers mates
  2. Like role playing but bored of monster slaying and fetch quests? Wish games had more meaningful plots and memorable characters? Join novice thief Shawn O'Conner as he attends the hallowed halls of Hero University (think Hogwarts meets D&D) and navigates the trials of college life. Your choices determine whether he becomes a noble hero, a ruthless villain, or some mix in between. You decide if he will use force or finesse, persuasion or cunning to overcome obstacles and accomplish goals. But remember, all choices inevitably have consequences. And that's just the freshman semester of Hero-U: Rogue to Redemption. What is Hero-U: Rogue to Redemption? Hero-U: Rogue to Redemption is an upcoming fantasy RPG, currently crowdfunding on Kickstarter. It's set in a university for adventurers, where you play a thief who was caught and has been sentenced to reform school. If the bullies don't get you, the midterms will, or the extracurriculars in the catacombs below. Turn-based tactical combat with emphasis on stealth, deception, and traps, oh my Adventure game style puzzles with multiple solutions Tough decisions that affect branching storyline Deep interaction and relationships with NPCs and their hidden agendas Windows, Mac, and Linux support! The game designers have very strong views on adventure game and RPG genre conventions and this game is supposed to tip all these sacred cows over. Who's making it? Designers: Lori and Corey Cole, the creators of the classic Sierra Quest for Glory series, adventure/RPG hybrid , and puzzle game . Basically, they made the games of my childhood. Developers: Andrew Goulding, founder of Brawsome, developer of the and adventure games. Haven't played those games yet myself, but they seem fun from the LP videos. Art: Among others, Eriq Chang and John Paul Selwood, who did the artwork in the Quest for Glory II remake, which was done pretty. What is Quest for Glory? Quest for Glory was a series of adventure-RPG hybrids in the Sierra line (King's Quest, Space Quest, Gabriel Knight etc) that combined RPG elements into the traditional point-and-click adventure genre, with storylines that borrow heavily from folklore and mythology, and a brand of humor that emphasized puns and wordplay. The games were a lot of fun because they had puzzles with multiple solutions depending on your character class, descriptions and dialogue genuinely worth reading and laughing at, and character import - characters from the 1st game could bring their stats and skills all the way to the 5th game. They even had a secret class (Paladin) that was only available through import if you had played a certain way in the previous games. There were many, many ways to die in the games, and all of them were fun enough to try once before reloading. Here's . Some fans loved the series so much, they remade one of the games (which you can play for free!). Hero-U is being planned as a similar five-part series, with each game focusing on a different class character. Tell me more! I can't do better than to point you to their site and some of the more informative articles about it: Kotaku interview Rock Paper Shotgun interview RPG Codex interview Adventure Gamers interview Game homepage Kickstarter campaign page If you have questions ask away and I'll try my best to point you at the game designers' answers.

  6. Anyone had hands on with this remake of Carrier Command yet? It looks the biz. My finger is hovering over the 'BUY NOW' button. http://www.carriercommand.com/
  7. So I figured there needed to be a Borderlands 2 thread here so here is one! Who else is looking forward to it? I also have to vent a little because of frustrations, Borderlands 2 isn't getting released until the 21:th here (Sweden) so that's a whole 3 days later then the US. I thought we were past this bs with very different release times? I won't be picking the game up close to release because I find this practice just unacceptable and I can wait a little bit longer since I got plenty of games to play right now anway. I still am excited for it however! Also saw some bs about some countries getting forced into buying a limited russian version even if they don't even speak russian, that's just pure evil right there.

  10. Background: the Greek Island of Limnos is the setting for the next ARMA 3 release. http://www.dsogaming.com/news/two-czech-men-were-arrested-at-limnos-island-by-the-greek-police-claim-to-be-members-of-bohemia-interactive/ Confirmed by the CEO of BI: http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?139877-Two-BI-employees-arrested-in-Lemnos&p=2221846&viewfull=1#post2221846 This is true. We prefer this topic not to be discussed on our forums atm, at least until we know more specific details about the case so I am going to close this topic and our moderators are going to close any related dicussion here, thank you for understanding.
  11. Hi all, Just a heads up that a free BSG space sim launched today. The game will be released in episodes, and is set to run concrrent to the BSG storyline, on another Battlestar that survived the Cylon invasion. Check it out: http://diaspora.hard-light.net/index.html Here's the page with some vids. http://diaspora.hard-light.net/videos.html Usng the Freespace 2 engine, this is looking epic!!
  12. As fans of tactical turn-based combat, I figure many would be interested in this: www.chaos-chronicles.com Hopefully they can succeed where Troika failed.
  13. Black Mesa, the HD remake of Half Life 1, will be launching in 11 days!!!! http://forums.blackmesasource.com/showthread.php?p=480683#post480683 http://www.blackmesasource.com/ It doens't include Xen, but that will come "soon".
  14. I don't know how many of you are interested in tabletop roleplaying, but as it's often a common basis for gamers I'd like to present this game here: http://www.playconclave.com Basically, it's about making it possible to partake in tabletop roleplaying (within certain limits, of course) even if you're not that young nerd with loads of time on your handy anymore, but have grown up to be a working adult. It offers asynchronous play to tackle that issue. I came across it today in RPS' Kickstarter Katchup column, and I think it looks really promising. If it takes up wind, it would offer pretty much unlimited possibilities (think user-created content, one player taking the role of Dungeon Master and the like). I'm normally not one to promote stuff on forums, but I believe this really has some potential. They're doing a Kickstarter at the moment, and while their goal is not ridiculously high, they will still need some pushing. In their favour, they have a pretty nice working Beta in place which you can join for free to see what you're getting yourselves into. Kickstarter is here: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/10x10room/conclave Plus, you just gotta love them for their studio's name
  15. Paying a minimum of $ 1,00 you can get 4 games: 1) Dangerous Waters 2) Battle Mages: Sign of Darkness 3) Sentinel 3 : Homeworld 4) Superstars V8 Racing PAY MORE THAN $7.18 AND GET THESE TOO ! : 5) Ghost Master 6) Dark Fall: Lost souls 7) Achtung Panzer: Operation Star 8) Space Empires V 9) Sacred Gold ( includes Sacred, Sacred PLUS & Sacred Underworld ) http://www.indiegala.com - extract from a email I got today. --O--
  16. Found this through Total biscuits WTF is... The MMO PvP in WoW never really appealed to me because of the advantages gear got you.. you had to farm PvP all the time, not just when it was fun to be able to compete. And you needed to be in a group of players that farmed together, if you took a break they replaced you. This game doesn't have progression. Anything you can change or buy are sidegrades so the playing is rather level in that sense. The maps and targeting system seems to allow for a lot more vertical combat then the MMO pvp allowed for. The game seems interesting, at least conceptually. http://www.playforgewar.com/ http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/166522941/forge?ref=live
  17. Hay I found a cool turn based game. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2128128298/expeditions-conquistador/posts/297114?ref=activity FUND IT PLOX

    Chivalry

    Chivalry is a first person slasher that only looks awesome. [video=youtube;-Y0las3-e1M] Its set in some fantasy made up place but who cares when you can chop up and mash people with a pretty badass weaponry. And there's objectives like village raids (burn down the village, kill peasants etc) castle/fort assaults. But, most importantly, is the extremely deep close combat. I do not believe there will be single player campaign, since its designed to be a multiplayer game but you can have battle against and with bots. And its still in alpha too. And they won't let me give them money because theres no pre ordering yet
  19. Does it seem to you with video games the journey is often more interesting than the destination? I've just finished playing Bastion for the first time. The Tazal Terminals were an awesome level. Some really shocking things revealed nearing the end. But when it came to the end... I expected.. I expected.. well, I didn't know quite what to expect, but I expected far more than what I got. For me, it was a real anti-climax. I felt dissapointed and more than a little let down. And I got to thinking, well hey, this is true for quite a lot of the games that I have played. It was true for Mass Effect 3 (haven't seen the extended cut yet - still playing through on insane difficulty). It was true for Fallout 3. I didn't care much for the ending to SPAZ, or King's Bounty. None of the Civ endings have ever made me feel "well, that was well worth 40+ hours of blood, sweat and tears". But going back to Bastion, the Narrator throughout the game helps to create a real sense of immersion in the game. Heck, I could happily play more of Bastion and never need a big finish, because the game in of itself is enough for me. With Fallout 3, if they had worked out a procedural sidequest system, ye gods, I don't think I would have ever touched the main quest unless I felt bored and out of sorts. Do games really need the big finish? Is the act of playing an engaging and immersive game sufficent to the needs of the player, or does it need the "pop" at the end to reward the player for everything they have done to get there? Should the destination be more interesting than the journey?
  20. Just wondering if anyone else was watching this one and waiting for a bit of mech on mech action?
  21. Just saw that Dead State, the zombie surivival RPG, hit Kickstarter today. It was up there with Xenonauts as the most interesting indie games I read about awhile back in PC Gamer, so I'm glad to see they're still alive and, err, kicking. I have to admit, the December 2013 release date puts me off a little bit since that seems like a long time for a game that's already been in development a long time and also the reward tiers seem a bit pricey - $15 for the game is good but then to even get a t-shirt (and some digital stuff), it's a jump to $100. Their "get your face in the game" tiers make Xenonauts' look like a steal, too - I think it's $750 or $800 to show up as an NPC or a zombie. That said, the game looks fun, managing a base and a team of characters trying to survive after the Zom-pocalypse. Take a look at the Kickstarter and let's discuss what you think... -Kilrathi
  22. Hey Anyone else been playing this? I think its been quite a good addition to civ5 and certainly got me playing it alot again. certainly fixes up alot of the hole it used to have. Just wondering what anyone else thought of it?

  24. Hi, I just came accross this game on kickstarter and it looks really interesting. I loved this "infinite" concept. Infinite world, infinite quests, infinite items... There's 21 hours left for the kickstarter to end now, I just placed a US$20 pledge to get a digital copy on release, wich will be december this year. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/malevolence/malevolence-the-infinite-rpg?ref=category
  25. Here's a game that was linked in the comments of the RPS Kickstarter article. There's an Indiegogo in progress for that one. http://www.lofigames.com/index.php
