Holy sh** you guys are on the grind! Sit back and watch the good ole bank account rise today I can't wait to get my hands on this!!!!!!
Exactly my impression. It has an expansive world, decent story, decent graphics and usable controls. Howewer, it definitely lacks the "wow" factor-be it innovation or polish. Howewer, i've just played 45 minutes so far, so take my impressions with a grain of salt. It's still one of the biggest efforts on the appstore-but while ravensword last year was the game, this is just one of the many releases we'll be getting today. Still one not to miss, though: just because it doesn't live up my hype does not mean it's one of the best games on the platform
I agree there. If your an rpg fan and you own an iOS device, then it's a must have. This is kinda the same situation as IB though, with so many releases in one day, it's gonna be overshadowed. I personally cant wait to build some goo towers, and race 15 other people online, and do some unexpected tomb raiding
is the update for it to work smoothly on 2nd gen devices? i mean i have an iphone 4 but would rather not use it to play games on it since the battery will lose charge over time like my old iphone did i rather use my second gen touch
To anyone that's played this game: How is the framerate? I really want to get this game but I have serious reservations about the framerate staying solid during gameplay. I have an iPhone 4
To login and see this. I can't WAIT for my last final to be over today. Just in time for U.S. release.
I have an iPad and I've noticed a few choppy areas, it doesn't ruin the experience though. What I don't like are the load times when you go into buildings, that takes me outta the zone kind of.
Please please tell me is this worlds apart from Ravensword? I was one of the first to buy Ravensword and didn't care for the lack of content in that game, and the general focus. I know "Read the app info for crying out loud!", but I need to be coddled and reassured that this is a more in-depth experience. I do love action RPGs and mage classes in general so I'm really hoping this lives up to the hype before I lay down my purchase.
Think ravensword, only bigger. There's a focus on a storyline, but side quests and other stuff to do. As far as how in depth it is, there's a skill tree, class specific equipment, crafting, fishing, hunting. If you liked ravensword at all, you won't be disappointed with this.
It does run nicely on an iPad, don't get me wrong. Just the usually hitches once in a while that you'd expect from a game like this.
Nothing can live up to the kind of hype Aralon has gathered -- heck it could be the next Dragon Age and some folks would still think it was disappointing. That said, the game is very different from Ravensword. For anyone looking for an actual RPG, it's much, much better.
The only thing that this game shares with Ravensword are superficial similarities -- it's a fantasy setting, it's 3D. Aralon is not Ravensword, only bigger: it's in a different order entirely.
"From what I've played so far" I guess should go after everything I say. It reminds me of ravensword, but I haven't really given it too much time yet. You can tell right away that it is more in depth than ravensword though. It's an actual rpg. If you know what the game is before you buy it, you won't regret it.
Good luck. Check the very first post, this IS the sale price. I think you have a long wait ahead of you.
Could someone please confirm that there is a first-person viewpoint option as there was in Ravensword? Thanks!
So is combat basically the same as Ravensword or has it been tightened up? It felt like a button masher so hopefully there's more depth here.
