Honestly since the original artist(s) left, I wasn’t interested in a follow-up anyway. A second disco Elysium without the same art and story direction would have little to no relation to the game that came before.

I only recognized this as Might & magic because I’ve watched too many Sseth videos.
Super-excited to play Runemaster on release. Been playing for years and still so much endgame stuff I haven’t touched. Here’s hoping the servers survive on Wednesday!
So this is a AA Studio that has been working on this game for a few years. They have some investments from outside companies (including tencent) so do with that what you will.
There IS a micro transaction store, with a bunch of cosmetic only items. I haven’t really glanced at these yet and we won’t know them all til release but I’m happy with the in-game drip currently.
I really enjoy the game and have been playing the early access for years. They aren’t selling quality of life like stash and space etc. like Path of Exile does. They also seem like a small but dedicated group of people who have always wanted to make this kind of game and have implemented/will implement many awesome ideas (great crafting, crazily customizeable skills, cool class designs).
They are a smaller studio so despite their prep, I would expect server failures on release day. They DO have an offline mode, but not for the current ‘Cycle’ (their seasons ala Diablo, PoE) so that will be playable on release even if servers are a mess and will have all cycle content as it releases (for now).
Really big fan of this game. If you want to give money to a studio for an ARPG, I would definitely recommend this one, or Grim Dawn.
Did you end up playing the unity remake or the original?
I don’t have much experience with either but I know the game decently well, I know there are a lot of mods being spun up for the unity version and I wonder if any of those would clean that issue up for you.
Interested to hear how you felt about it overall since I was considering it myself since the 1.0 unity release. I suspect I will have a very similar experience to you, though.
Happy birthday! Thank you for everything you do. I love this instance deeply and I’m really happy you all are the ones in charge of it.
Makes sense! Yeah I have kind of slowed my roll on things that are JRPG or JRPG adjacent, probably from less time to play stuff mostly. I keep hearing how awesome Sea of Stars is though!
Sorry for the bad take! I didn’t play many JRPGs or JRPG inspired games this year, as I usually find those more story led and have less room for roleplay. Does sea of stars actually have much roleplay? Or is it mostly combat/ability focused choice-making?
Of the games I played that came out this year, I would only classify BG3 and Rogue Trader as RPGs. I have a LOT of issues with the roleplay in BG3 (though I love it). I don’t feel like JRPGs that have little to no roleplaying aspect whatsoever should count within Role-Playing-Games, since I think some facilitation of roleplay should be provided. BG3’s class/race reactivity or Rogue Trader’s Dogmatic/Iconoclast/Heretic convictions fit this very well.
Really excited to see this patch. Lots of little things to dissect too, and possibly some big hidden things not mentioned.
Epilogues are what this game needed to feel complete.
I wanna love this game so much. Have tried multiple times. But every time I am stopped by my horrendous Thalassophobia on Giant’s Deep and Dark Bramble. And honestly just everywhere. such a shame, it seems so good.
The original Mount & Blade at an office max, I think? 5 dollar bargain bin game. I remember being blown away by the army combat in that game. The first one was so barebones but I still love that janky mess.
Honestly still one of my favorite shows, maybe my favorite ever. It can be campy and unrealistic sometimes, it stays within the realm of “I guess that’s possible” that you will still be curious about how they will beat the monster of the week. It’s a lot of fun.
I agree with others, man. What’s the age difference? Because I understand someone being too young (I’m 28 and I’m not sure I could date someone under 24 for example). Just very curious! You never know
Tbh, me and at least 2 other people I know bounced off it hard, even after giving it multiple chances in 10+ hours of playing. Some people just aren’t jelling with it even with playtime.
I took some time off work and powered through it for old times’ sake.
I enjoyed it! It definitely dragged at points, and there were more than few questionable story decisions, but the combat content (especially in the latter half) was much stronger than previous expansions. The high-level dungeons are a lot of fun and will keep many players on their toes.
The new classes are…okay. viper seems overly confusing for what is a relatively easy class, and picto is mostly fine, if not a bit too easy.
