The Ghost of Christmas Future, II

[abt79]

This game lacks playerbase. The world must know.

People that need safe zones or otherwise can't get past the learning curve would just ragequit at the first setback anyway. It takes a special kind of autism to play this game

lol

Also people seem to forget that when Hafen comes out, we will ALL be newbs.


Let's all make slingshots and kill each other when it's released!

People say that everytime there's a new world too.

In reality some will learn far faster than others and
you'll still get killed 3 hours in while playing with
starter skills =x

Humans are clever little fucks

Nao, that gave me shivers

Nao is right, That combat system looked alien, It had IP and similarities to salem, but it's still going to take a bit to figure out. And it'll be any ones game right out the gate.
All the hnh raiding experience is going to amount to jack or shit.

to be honest it may not be that difficult to learn

...in comparison to say... the experimental curio
system that jorb and loftar had laid out for a very
early version. Picking up certain items allowed you
to begin "researching" skills instead of the time it
took to "study" a curio. Also (I think) there was no
way to tell what you were researching, and you only
had 3 options. Learn to craft a new item, learn to
craft a new building, learn a new skill (Or something
like that)

I can't remember it picture perfectly, but it was a
very weird system... kinda enjoyable... but very
weird at first. Especially when you had no idea what
you were researching, or how to get where you wanted
with your research

Looks nice.

Apart from the new engine though, is everything else going to be mostly the same gameplay wise?

[loftar]

That combat system [...] similarities to salem

Just how do you see similarities to Salem in it? :)

Many things are going to be similar or at least strongly reminiscent, other things less so, yet other things completely revamped or removed entirely. Generally, we relate to it as simply continuing to develop Haven, in which we have of course also previously not been particularly afraid of revamping entire systems if we've wanted to.

Is the LP system going to be curios again?

Honestly not much, just feels reminiscent of it, I cannot point to any one particular thing.
I wonder about it though, it's going to be fun to find out all the little nooks and crannies of the new combat system.
Reminds me of when I was trying to learn combat for the first time, with a frog, just trying to figure out why jump did something but bloodlust didn't seem to change anything at all

I certainly hope the combat system is getting a complete rework. I love your game, I'm excited for the new one but the combat system was pure dogshit in my opinion.
