This game is coming out in October on consoles, yet wasn't at e3? Somebody wants to fail

 

[Casimir]

I don't. I'm currently playing their Two Worlds II and loving the hell out of it. Black Flag had many great points but quest design wasn't one of them. The quests in Two Worlds II are much more entertaining than anything I experienced in Black Flag.

Playing it again?

 

[Lemmy]

can't really compare an open world game to a tightly scripted one?

Well, he said it was the 'best zombie game made' and I disagreed. I know they're two different genres, but I didn't enjoy State of Decay a fraction as much as I did either L4D game was what I was suggesting. State of Decay was ridiculously unpolished even when judged against some other open world Zombie games though.

 

[Bruuuuuuuuuce!]

The plot is so novel.

My family has been murdered SO many times.

After reading this article, Raven's Cry starts to sound quite promising:

Nice!

I didn't realize these were the Two Worlds guys, or if I did I forgot. Hype + 1! Funny thing is Two Worlds 2 had a very nice bit of pirate themed DLC called Pirates of the Flying Fortress. I never did beat it though, it got insanely difficult for me at one point (a boss battle).

 

[Durante]

I'm somewhat interested. Though I'd rather have Reality Pump working on an RTS again at some point.

Earth 2150 was so far ahead of its time.

 

[DarkJedi24]

Looks interesting. Will be looking forward to see how it turns out.

 

[Driw3r]

This "music video" was released about week ago... Haha, those lyrics are awesome:

Then there is this older in case you've missed it:

Atleast soundtrack of this game will be stunning.

 

[Uncle Rupee]

It must suck to be a smaller developer working on a game and see that a company like Ubisoft has decided to make a game in a similar setting well before yours will be finished.

 

[Driw3r]

New trailer:

Well, it's not the best trailer i have seen...

 

[Driw3r]

Found this, finally some gameplay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l365Boyl7Mk

AI doesn't look that good. Can someone who understand German language give short summary what they are saying?

Left a good impression, has potential. Sea Fights have some similarity to AC4, just a bit more realistic, you have to pay attention to the Wind. 16 different Ship-Types you can get in the Game. You have something called Dirty Tricks (2:50, right Corner), the Crow confuses Enemies and so on. Stealth seems useless, they said they were just running through because it was pointless being stealthy. Story seems to be about Revenge, Main Dude wants to avenge his Family. 14. October is the Release Date

This should cover most of the important stuff

That doesn't look so hot. These guys must be pissed that Assassin's Creed stole the pirate thunder from right under them. Watching that gameplay vid, it just kind of comes off as a budget Black Flag knock off even though this was revealed way before it.

 

[Neuromancer]

Gamefly is only listing this game for PC, and they're usually pretty good with releases. I wonder if this game is really coming this fall to all these platforms.

 

[Sentenza]

Aside for the "knock off" part that's exactly what it is.
It's a game developed on a budget, from a small underdog developer. Nothing that is even trying to compete for the triple A spotlight.

Oh, and it's supposed to be a RPG, so not very close to Black Flag in that sense.

EDIT:

Well, I just watched this and it doesn't really look good... And not in a "not-triple-A-enough" sense.
It really looks dull gameplay-wise, the video doesn't seem to show off any redeeming quality, even taking the low budget as a premise.

Thanks!

This game also probably suffers that development team changed last year... Still looking forward to this even it doesn't look so great.

I had some hopes for this game a long time ago, but after watching the gameplay videos I'm seeing a lot of not-as-well-executed Black Flag. I'm curious what RPG elements it has though I don't know if that will be enough to save what I'm seeing.

Welcome! Yeah, Sacrilegium was probably postponed because Topware gave Raven's Cry to them (Reality Pump). I didn't even know they released trailer last year for Sacrilegium. I only remember that it was announced and after that: nothing. But i believe they will fully concentrate on it after Raven's Cry is released.

That's... not what I expected when you said stunning.

I really hope pirates aren't the new zombies.

As someone who loves pirates and isn't fond of zombies, I'd be very in favor of this happening.

 

[Jingo]

I dont know how it will turn out since the game graphics already look very outdated,
It had a great idea and athmospere and that was what kept me with an eye open, wait it is

 

[jesu]

Time for a pirate zombie game methinks.
