Dark Messiah of Might and Magic

[Janus]

An upcoming game using the Source (Half Life 2) engine. Check out their teaser videos:

Combat looks pretty sweet from the videos. Not fully realistic, but still rather cool.

Er... this is a game, not a mod. They've just licenced the engine.

I heard about this a while back, I love the way the first person cam moves during the fights. I might be looking into this one..

 

[malenn]

It looks to good to be true. But i like Might and Magic so mayby.

 

[leo]

Mm.

Hell, as long as it turns out a fair bit better than Crusaders of Might and Magic, I'll be happy.

Crusaders of Might and Magic: Generic scar faced hero fights generic dark magician enemy in generic fantasy world! Save a generic damsel in generic distress and aid a generic order of knights! Choose from a variety of generic weapons which all share the same three generic attacks! Agonize as we force you to jump 100 times in a row over pillars, and pray to your invisible deity of choice that you won't accidentally quicksave while falling off of a cliff-- but it WILL DO YOU NO GOOD.

I really didn't want to remember paying for that game. Thanks a lot Janus.

If you took shot every time you read the word generic in this post, you would be as drunk as Worbah.

Never played Crusaders.

The Might & Magic series was good up until about 7 or 8, then rapidly went downhill.
Not too sure about DM yet though. Graphics look great, physics seem nice but the actual gameplay is looking a bit dodgy so far.

Rumour has it that Heroes of Might & Magic V is also in the works...

There's a link on the site to it...

It's developed by Nival Interactive. Mightn't be the Heroes we've all learned to love, but definitely interesting.

 

[okiN]

Amen to that. S^2 and S^3 for great justice!

Quiet fool, you are making me look stupid.

Quiet fool, you are making me look stupid.

To be fair, I don't really need to. You're doing a fine job of it all by yourself.

But then it wouldn't be heroes

It looks like they're altering the setting, but the core mechanics should survive. I don't know though, I mean the worst that could happen is that it becomes an Age of Wonders clone, which I wouldn't be too unhappy about..

Unless they decide to turn it into yet another RTS
