Quote from Thurnip

are you doing all the stuff on illustrator? how you get the assets from the creation tool (Ai or Ps) to implement on the engine? BTW, are you guys using Unity or something?

Liking the artwork

Hello again Thurnip!

Yes we're using Unity, it allows you to import a range of different graphic formats and there are various resources to help with importing things like PSDs/vector files.

Forge alliances and friendships. A brand new journey awaits. Not long to go until our Kickstarter launches! [Blocked Image: http://fc00.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2014/217/e/8/10556934_354820021335761_1536748067685831548_o_by_shoelesspeacock-d7tu35i.png]

Quote from Spherix

That looks awfully small/crowded to support multiple players in an MMO. Or is the card game the only actual MMO feature?

The area presented will span out across acres of landscape!

Here is a reference of some of our in world sceneries. The Market place will be a lot more expanded in the final build.

Quote from Sentura

My point is that from what you've shown I'm not even interested in reading the backstory, because the presentation is lacking. If I have to sit through something like this, it has to be made so I catch on immediately. I'm never going to read up on your 12 blog posts just so I can become interested in your game. If you want me to get interested, you need to push something that is immediately interesting to me as a player. Even if your story is meant to be thought provoking, if it's not interesting to read, or if the game doesn't match the level of storytelling, it's just not worth it.

Keep in mind I say this as constructive criticism. You're clearly well on the way towards a Kickstarter campaign, so it boggles my mind why you wouldn't want to catch the attention of as many players as possible. Have short introductions, have few elements to show and excel at showing just the minimum quantity of content for your game at maximum quality. Have a hook that draws players in. If you already lose me at the number of houses or the names or the lore or the (perceived) silliness of the armors, then what is my incentive to back your project despite your 12+ blog posts about how the story works?

Hi Sentura, We appreciate the constructive criticism. Our goal has always been to draw in players from the visual style and artwork. The stories and lore help to build an emotional connection between the artwork and the player.

So far, we've received incredible feedback regarding both the artwork and story, providing enough validation for us to keep going. We'll be releasing an exclusive video next week so hang tight, you may like it!
