Sick GEBs!

Idk how people complain about the graphics tbh. Those are great.

What's obvious to me, if I was in their shoes, is to be head down focused on delivering the best version of what they originally intended. Guaranteed to succeed. Barring that? Offer it as a ruleset server. I'll be there with bells on.

played again this play test over the weekend, aside from the charm changes still enjoyed it (have been maining a ENC, sticking to high blue's seems to be the new sweet spot), camp checks in ooc when going into wyrmsbane really hit the nostalgia feels. But overall looking forward to the EA launch and at some point get a lottery invite to help decide between the 3-4 classes that have interested me.

I still think they need to put up a live feed of the Wyrmsbane entrance on YouTube or Twitch at EA launch and just let people watch the train shenanigans.

Be amazing to watch when im working and I bet the subs would roll in, lol.

Just need to park a rogue by the board bridge and film the choo-choos come running past.

It’s a problem I call “being able to now match concept art to in game art”

Most of what we love/loved from back in the day was nowhere near the concept art… re: FF6 etc.

The concept art and style the wood elves are here is not traditional “LOTR Elves” they are the very woodsy sprite “wood elf” where they are /like wood/ not /elves that live in forests/ - so them being sticky and their skin being somewhat wood grain is… what they want.. and imo its a very “small” style of elves that, really is not that popular or good looking -no idea why they wanted this

Just give me Trolls and I'm happy.

Hekotat · Tuesday at 6:41 PM

Deep Elves, Deep Gnomes, Deep Dwarves, Trolls and High Elves are planned. Unsure when some of those come into the game though.

Koushirou · Tuesday at 6:59 PM

I can’t seem to get over the goofy models. There’s been talk of potential lizardmen, so probably will be waiting to see if that comes to pass and how they look. Deep dwarves do seem kind of cool, too.

Kirun · Tuesday at 7:18 PM

Yeah, there is something about the models that make them look very dopey.

And not in an, "Oh, that's an interesting style choice" type of way. More a, "Oh, no! I think it's retarded!" way.

I’m not sure what it is really, but there’s definitely something there. Maybe proportions? Are the heads too big? The eyes? I can’t put my finger on it.

That being said, i don’t dislike the character models at all.

Went back to try and figure out what it was... her neck is long as fuck. Looking like Mike Glennon out in these streets.

DE and DG are module 1. Trolls are module 2. At one point i heard HE are with the trolls, but that doesn't seem to be the case anymore. I know there have been test models created for the lizzards, and Zukan is gungho on them. I'd personally guess they come in with or after trolls.

Deep dwarves are pretty far out, they haven't worked through how they're gonna work in terms of visible armor, etc.

I actually dig the dwarfs a lot. I like how they aren't just midgets. They are actually super broad.

They are absolute units.

It's a quick screenshot from a stream and they don't have vods, so I can't go back and grab a better one; but this is probably one of the coolest things. GM came in and just pop em all into skele form. I've been a huge fan of these low poly games that have been coming out of the woodwork, because while graphics are cool and all.. often times these devs put so much emphasis on mechanics at the "cost" of graphics and the game is more rich for it.

That is cool for sure.

Also kind of provides more evidence for me that what i find out of whack about the character models is the head:body size ratio. Makes everything feel a touch…childish? Effeminate?

Flattop · Wednesday at 10:48 AM

Alot of the male models are fat dad-bods with ugly proportions and the females are jacked on HRT. The biggest offenders are ogres, dwarves and planned trolls. Troll males have cushing's syndrome in the artwork, I hope they get treated before launch.

arallu · Wednesday at 11:09 AM

It's like they started with a blob and worked from there

Pasteton · Wednesday at 11:37 AM

I think the woodelves look too methed out and humans borderline retarded but I find the gnomes, ogres and dwarves to look kinda funny and cool in a cartoony way. Goblins also pretty good imo. But everyone is gonna have different opinions. I know you can have ‘obviously bad’ character design, but a lot of this is too subjective to win with everyone I think.
