Yup, turn and hex based which should be interesting.
Me too, after saying I wouldn't back any more games following Underworld Ascendant.

I have pledged to include pre-alpha etc so will (any nda's aside) post here and give subscribers feedback during development.
I didn't even watch the video...ZiN wrote: ↑October 18th, 2018, 6:23 am Damn, that pitch video... I won't be able to resist backing... er... I mean pre-ordering this, despite thinking I won't back anything after InXile's double fail of ToN and Barrows. But that pitch video... Just look at the BT4 one of Fargo talking bullshit and showing nothing, and I would feel bad if I didn't back this one, after backing that one. Whoever did this pitch video definitely did their homework about how to attract those disappointed/angry old-schoolers, who feel betrayed by games such as Barrows Deep, etc. Hopefully they also did their homework about making a good game as well! We'll see.
Kickstarter Videos are pure feelgood marketing.
Unknown dev studio, too good to be true video. I would tread carefully when thinking about backing this. My googlefu was unable to verify much.
Perhaps, the 2 names mentioned have been around for a while, and the combat gameplay video looks like what I would expect after 2 years of dev work.BlakeStone wrote: ↑October 20th, 2018, 9:42 amUnknown dev studio, too good to be true video.

Gold Box was turn based and ToEE was RTwP. Which is it?In Realms Beyond, you will find the tactical turn-based combat of the Gold Box Games, Temple of Elemental Evil and Dark Sun
The team have just released new artwork showing some of the in-game items, today they are showcasing hand-crafted items:
Queen Mirvala’s Sandals are a pair of enchanted sandals once worn by the legendary sorceress-queen of the lost civilization of Virduris. Six gleaming jewels were set into them, each one imbued with a different enchantment – turning them into one of the most powerful pieces of equipment in the entire game. But while the sandals themselves are quite easy to find, still worn by the ancient queen’s magically preserved corpse, they are missing the enchanted jewels that turn them into such a powerful item. Mirvala’s tomb had been looted by graverobbers long ago, who pried out the gleaming jewels and left the leather sandals on her corpse. Tracking them all down won’t be easy, but it will be a worthwhile and rewarding quest. With each jewel you set back into the sandals, they gain an additional enchantment.
Some markers will be placed on the map automatically, triggered by interactions with objects in the world. As you can see on the screenshot, four of the markers look a little different. They haven’t been set by the player, but were placed after the player received some new information about the area. Areto’s Tomb was marked when the player read the inscription above the door, for example. The chamber of sacrifice was marked when he examined an offering bowl.
In addition to placing your own markers on the map, you can also write your own notes into the journal. Realms Beyond gives you all the tools you need to keep your information organized, without holding your hand. Important information is recorded automatically, but sorted by which character told it to you, not sorted by which quest it is related to – this way, you are free to make your own connections and come to your own conclusions, without the game doing it for you.
