Seems like the controls in the game should fade a bit, not to bad though. This looks much better than Hero of Sparta, and maybe even BIA. We'll see
The reason that the game is mainly focused on the 3GS is because originally it was going to be a PC game, and alot of the models that were made for it were very high resolution. We have toned them down alot for even the 3GS to be able to handle them. Making it strictly for the 3G or Touch would mean completely redoing everything. So we have a compromise. You have a shorter draw distance with a touch or a 3G, and the draw distance is further away with the 3gs. It will be the same models regardless.
Get it. Thx so when you post you game play vid, do you mind to post 2 of them. One for 3GS and one for 3G... So the 3G user can feel the game preformance on their 3G phone?
That is interesting, I didn't know that. Is there any chance of you guys making a Mac port, since it is basically the same OS?
We've been considering Mac and PC ports, but that would involve reworking all the assets, so it'll have to wait... we need to get the iPhone version done. 3 months with no paycheck has been pretty hard on the household finances So you all better buy it when it comes out, and get everybody you know to buy it, or Josh and I will be living under a bridge come Christmas time. You keep us fed, and we'll do our best to make you guys whatever your little hearts desire.
I... I... I want it!!! ZOMG this game looks so good! Insta-buy for me!! You guys wont have to worry about going hungry with a game this good-looking. I can't wait!
Don't worry about that point, I'm already sold on this one. And no waiting for a discount either, I'll be buying it as soon as it hits the store
any idea as to how much we can expect to pay for this sweet, sweet, beautiful game? any estimates on file size either? p.s. im glad to hear that there will be replayable quests, the lack of replayable missions was the only major problem i found with oblivion.
I'm guessing somewhere between 5 and 10 dollars, though you never can tell with the iPhone marketplace. If they want to hit the top 25, they'll need to launch at 3 dollars or less. File size will undoubtably be large. I have some experience designing textures, and if this game is properly textured, there is virtually no way it will weigh in at less than 50 megs. I'm guessing it will be between 100 and 150 megabytes, just from looking. I also don't know what the music and sound effect situation will be like here - lots of high quality music will dramatically increase file size. Again, I'm just making a ballpark guess based on the screenshots though, so you never know.
no they dont, thats almost a disgrace to developers to say that, plenty of $7+ apps have hit the top of the charts. Im expecting this one to be in that same price range
So, I'll add my "wow" here: Wow. Very nice looking stuff. There was a previous post that said the game was due out in 2010 - it sounds like from this post that's not the case? (otherwise there would be no avoiding your new home with the trolls come X-mas time). You can count me in on a purchase. Personally I prefer isometric RPGs a bit more, but this game looks too good to ignore.
Actually about the 2010 thing, thats for Ravensword ONLINE!!!! if that comes out as a iphone version of WoW, i might die of enjoyment.... the website says that Ravensword is currently in development
That was in reference to a future online version of the game. This single-player version is due out next month, if I recall correctly. I'm waiting to see a gameplay vid before getting my heart set on this game, but so far I really like what I've been reading. Even better than a gameplay video would be a short, playable, FREE demo, with about 5 minutes worth of gameplay, or just a bit of the world to walk around in and couple boars to fight.
Look at the current top app and its price. And also being a huge Morrowind/Oblivion game I am HUGELY pumped for this game. Will follow and support!
Oh wow (again). That could really make this game huge (assuming the basic gameplay, etc. are as good as they look from the screenshots).
What it will cost will depend on how it comes out, I guess, and what is going on on the app store when it drops, mixed up with a liberal dose of our best uneducated guesswork. We're working feverishly to get it to you, though, and things are progressing well. We've incorporated some of what we read here, but I wont say what. It's a secret. Isn't that exciting? A secret! AIEEEEEE!!! Your encouragement has been extremely inspirational. It's really great coming here and basking in these posts It makes me really want to not disappoint you all. So I wont. I think this is gonna be awesome!
If you create an open world that's anywhere near as fun to play around in as oblivion's I'm sure I won't be dissapointed.
if it's going to be like "oblivion" or any other Elder Scroll's series, then will it have expansion packs? for missions, armors and weapons, etc.? Coz that'll be nice to have. And yeah, I'd like to see videos of this game running on both 3Gs and 3G as well.
