    Their goal is to release this year. Unless something has changed recently, they're very much on schedule.

    Well - thanks, squarezero - that's good news. The game starts to look more and more gorgeous.

    I just finished Two Worlds on PC and am waiting for Two Worlds 2.
    This seems similiar for my handheld... :)

    edit: yeah, I admit: anticipation is killing me.
    But I always loved games like Gothic, Two Worlds, Elder Scrolls... and I have a feeling that Aralon will be fantastic.

    I just wonder what size this game will be - unpacked on my device? Like 500 mb of memory?

    This is off topic but I downloaded the Gothic 4 demo yesterday and I'm very angry. I have a brand new PC laptop with Quad Core, 6gb of Ram - and even on the lowest setting I'm probably only getting about 10-12 fps.
    Is the minimum spec for these new games a $3000 machine???
    I could tell from (almost) playing the demo that they are some similarities to Aralon - if we have the time we could probably do something on a similar scale (graphically) for the PC/Mac.
    I'm just pissed because I was so excited about that game for so long, have a brand new laptop, and can't even play it.

    I'm able to run Dragon Age well with better than minimum settings on my 2009 MacBook Pro; I can't see Gothic 4 at min being that much more graphically intensive. But in general mobility graphic cards are not as powerful as their desktop equivalents, even if the specs look similar. Does your laptop have a second higher-powered card? That's how MBPros work these days.

    Ok, well I just played the Gothic 4 demo and it ran at about 20 fps on the preset high settings. my screen resolution is 1366x768. I'll film it if you don't beleeve me!

    I just tryed the gothic demo and it is buggy as hell
    for example- sitting animations play when there is not a chair nearby
    -mug appears only if I sit
    -waterfall,fire disappears sometime
    and I only played about 10 minutes of it, also has bad optimization
