Just came back from a hard days work and decided to give a quick shout out to the creators of this game, the names that stick in my mind are Josh and Russ. Anyway you guys are doing a great, very good job here and the trailer I checked (twice) were exactly on par what I was expecting for this game. You guys are doing the work (very hard probaly) from what a developer like gameloft or bethesda are doing with a much smaller team. I read the comments after the first time I checked the trailer and was appaled by the comments. People are acually comparing this game with games that run on very strong PC's like Oblivion. I checked the trailer again after the comments and can't seem to get get the negative comments. This game looks exactly like Morrowind which ran on a powerfull PC. This looks pretty amazing for the power the iPhone has and I cannot wait to buy it. I will buy it to support you guys from day one and will buy the expansions also. Keep up the great work!! Dont be put down by smallminded people who will nag about the animation because these people probaly have a jailbroken iPhone anyway and are too narrowminded to spend 5 $ or more on something as amazing as this. Peace!!
Dunno if anyone noticed, but shadows were not turned on in the gameplay footage. The pc version I was running to capture the footage wouldn't display shadows for some strange reason. If it looks a little flat - that's why. I do prefer to play the game with shadows off though, for the performance increase (hardly noticeable on a 3gs)
I was wondering about the shadows thing myself -- we're so used to that flat look on the iPhone, but I was hoping you guys would be taking things further. Good to know that they're supposed to be there (and that the performance hit is small on the 3Gs).
Don't get too hyped for this game: Combat mechanics look terrible. Inventory/Character interface look terrible. Single Player RPGs can only go so far.
REMINDS ME OF RUNESCAPE.............WHY AM I TYPING IN CAPS? Sry for that. um but this game looks sick. How will the controls work? like modern combat i hope.
