johndramey - thanks! We are getting close to putting the finishing touches on our first complicated UI from top to bottom, so that might be coming next, and soon!

I liked it! Interesting to hear more about the dark factions, the Ratkin seem like they will be the perfect trash mobs. One on one they might be no big deal, but in a group you'll have to worry.

johndramey - a hero who decides to separate from the others will always have to be careful

Was glad to see another KS update. sounds like things are really moving along now I also enjoyed reading the story parts as well. I mentioned it on KS but I'll say it here too, I'd like to see some of this history & life on Steel get into the game. As letters or journals, maybe as a book too. Can't wait to see how things develop. |

@captain nemo - a lot of the content posted during the KS and more will be available in game in different readable formats (journals, reports, scrolls), as you've requested. It's a great way to build the world and fill in the holes

fallen Thank You .. yes I think it's a great way to learn about the world & fill in holes. I really love that in Skyrim, it was my 1st Elder Scroll game so all the different books etc helped build out that world & made it feel more complete even tho I hadn't played any of the other games.

We are planning to start working with backers on these items later in the month of May, so stay tuned! Any update on this? Just curious when those of us who get NPCs/dark races/etc should be on the lookout for emails  |

johndramey - it's still a little too early for that. Sorry, this has taken longer than we had hoped, but the timeline has been impacted by the Epic Platform Pack (it's all for the better anyway!). I am hoping that the conversation will start in early July.

fallen, no worries, I figured as much. Take all the time you need, just wanted to make sure I didn't miss something seeing as how my contribution was split into two parts Thanks for all the hard work!

Awesome, can't wait. I always like hearing about what's going on with HoS. Especially cause I just finished paying off my credit card pledge haha.

New update out for everyone, with an awesome surprise. Looks like everything is working well on Android, iOS, and DESKTOP! So, according to the update, we might be getting our alpha access rougly sometime next monthish. Possibly. Maybe. So. Excited. Do yourself and watch the video, too. It's only a minute and a half, but it shows off movement and the storytelling a bit. I really like it, especially the character interatction. If I may ask a quick question, how do you guys plan on dealing with all the different character classes? Will the interact differently, or will they simply slot into roles in the team. e.g. warrior is 1 and wizard is 2. Will their conversation be the same or different if Rogue is 1 and Wizard is 2

Also, Andrew, are you fully responsible for the artwork that we see in the video? If so.... Wow. The quality is top notch! Amazing work brothers, you guys amaze me with your ability to maintain 3 games (4 if we separate iOS ST), develop AoP, and get this far in HoS in such short time. Do you guys ever sleep?

Yes, that's all Andrew Trese art! Pretty proud of my progress, but a lot more to go! Thanks for the compliments. No, sleep is not for us anymore  On the character classes -- each group has four slots: Warrior (Outlander or Dueler), Caster (Wizard or Bard), Stealth (Thief or Rogue) and Faithful (Cleric or Paladin). The personalities and stories of the "Warrior" slot characters will all be similar, so you may have a different tactical squad (Outlander and Bard vs. Outlander and Wizard) but the conversation would have likely gone the same. However, there will be conversations, story choices, and story branches that will be specific to a character class (Dueler vs. Outlander), but these will be more focused around their individual character traits and not as numerous. |
