Admiral Cotla Charre Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Anybody who feels like being blown away better check out these two sneak peaks: http://www.fileplanet.com/155897/150000/fileinfo/Project-Offset-Sneak-Peek-#1http://www.fileplanet.com/155897/150000/fileinfo/Project-Offset-Sneak-Peek-#2 And while you watch, keep in mind that this game is being made by a grand total of THREE people... Website is here, http://www.projectoffset.com, where they have alternate download mirrors incase you don't like FilePlanet. I just about crapped myself when I watched these, it just looks revolutionary! Admiral Cotla CharreImperial Navy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostly_Substance Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 WHAT To many people inline. I'll download sneak peak 2 and tell you what I think. From the description and screenshots it looks like a good game the video needs 57 min left to download then i'll be able to judge more. -One Empire falls another riseshttp://myanimelist.net/signature/EuroSubstance.png http://miniprofile.xfire.com/bg/os/type/2/ghostlysubstance.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swiftdraw Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 I remember seeing this before... Besides the fact I find the term "Fantasy FPS" almost to be an oxymoron, I'm really tired of Tolkien-esque settings (aka: swords and dragons stuff.) I'm now teh lurker.http://miniprofile.xfire.com/bg/bg/type/2/swiftdraw.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gen.Vader Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 how is it a oxymoron? you could just fire your little bow. I've have you now - Lord Vader Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swiftdraw Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 Thats why I said almost, but I beleive most medival combat was of the melee varity thus negating the "shooter" part of FPS. Maybe your a wizard going around blowing stuff up, I dunno, I'm not that intrested.

Admiral Cotla Charre Posted August 9, 2005 Author Share Posted August 9, 2005 Anybody ever play Savage? It was the first RTS-RPG hybrid. You shot with a bow in that game, and it was pretty deadly, and then you switched out to 3rd person mode for melee combat. All the while you would elect a player to play an RTS game, who controlled base-building, research, and assaults/defense. I remember seeing this before... Besides the fact I find the term "Fantasy FPS" almost to be an oxymoron, I'm really tired of Tolkien-esque settings (aka: swords and dragons stuff.) Personally, I don't think there are enough (if any) FPS's in the Tolkien-esque settings... Sure there's plenty of RPGs, but an FPS? You gotta give them credit for trying something that bold.

Swiftdraw Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 I just meant for games in general... I'm just plain tired of it. I just see this as fantasy encroching on one of the last bastions of non-fantasy settings. Well, best of luck to them.

Foshjedi2004 Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 The Tolkein Genre is the best fantasy genre at the moment. http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa197/knivesdamaster/tags/sith_omguserbar_member.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral Cotla Charre Posted August 9, 2005 Author Share Posted August 9, 2005 hehhe yeah, Just how much money has EA made on LotR games so far? And just how much money did the LotR movies pull in?! Hehe, you'd be a fool not to take advantage of the fantasy craze right now.. also, examine some of the top MMO's, EQ, EQ2, WoW, DaoC... the fantasy genre is alive and well!

Ghostly_Substance Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 Dont forget Guildwars Those people who have imagination tend to like Fantasy games more or from what i've seen. This looks like a very great game better then what I played so far. First person while guildwars is 3rd person view. -One Empire falls another riseshttp://myanimelist.net/signature/EuroSubstance.png http://miniprofile.xfire.com/bg/os/type/2/ghostlysubstance.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
