apart from the bad ui ,terrible controls , low fov with no options and no jumping the game seems pretty solid I like the art style a lot
 
Demo doesn't even work for me, all in game cinematics are just a black screen. Steam overlay when closed just goes transparent and flickers like mad. On top of that I can't see my character in the gameplay sections.
 
For anyone who experiences issue with the game just being a black screen even in cinematics and you can hear sounds, disable post processing.
 
Been watching this one for awhile and looks really good from the game play videos etc I've seen. However the UI has a very old console rpg feel to it, but it is at least practical if ugly. Another thing that bothered me is that the dialog cut scenes have a big black bar that uses a third of the screen up, another old rpg thing you used to see, shame really as the game is really pretty, no need to cover things up.

The developers have been kinda honest about this game, some of the trailer interviews have them saying they're worried about the game not being well known or isn't going to do well, which you can pretty much tell from the activity of this thread and general lack of hype of this game anywhere which is indeed a shame as the game boasts a large singe player campaign with good voice acting game play etc, it looks like what Fable series should have been. Hopefully when it's out for reviews people will get a better feel for it, but the game feels very underrated at the moment.
 
Got the all black screen as well. Initially I though since the character was dead I was in a bodybag and it was immersion :p

Reminded me of a Fable/MMO hybrid. Not my cup of chai, maybe good for the kiddies.
 
Keep getting a weird freezing error for 3-5 seconds when combat music is about to start, very strange.
 
this is a pure console slash'em'up game sadly, the UI is awful the options are awful with a typical console FOV and after trying the PC demo I defo will not be bothering with it :(
