If you're going to break the trinity, do it right. Lichdom: Battlemage -- @Worldbreaker, thoughts?

First person action (RPG) games have always fascinated me, I like how just the perspective alone adds difficulty through environments.

"What is around the corner??"
"I hear something"

Mainly, I like the idea of (first person) being attacked and not being able to see the attack. Maybe that is why I have been so accommodating to PoE's desync.

Its not might and magic without the ragdoll kick. Its the main reason I played that game :P

Ill check this out though. Has nice effects reference :P

Agreed, no kicks onto convenient spikes is a drawback...but good lord do these spells look good.

WB: Lichdom is chock full of that tension. And since you are an unlimited ammo glass cannon with quick dodges, it often comes down to the wire and you never have anyone to blame but yourself.

Bought!
Thank you for the info. Never heard of it before.

Rock on.

Good luck. :)

All this thread did was remind me that I need to finish Dark Messiah of Might and Magic. This game looks interesting to me now though. However, I hate supporting Early Access, it just never seems to pan out.

Eh, I don't see it as supporting. It's a flat-out purchase of a build and all subsequent builds. I'm having a complete ball playing the version they currently have -- and since it's single player (by design, bless the devs), there's very little fear of 'balancing nightmares' down the track.

The price keeps going up as release comes closer, so it's not just a flat-out purchase; it's a bargain that can only be offset by an unlikely failure to launch. At worst, launch is delayed, but that'll still mean adding content to the existing build.

I get the hesitation but this is a spectacularly playable version of the game.
