Eschalon Book 1 Teaser

[HopebySending]

Very nice game!

I tried the demo and after few minutes I knew "this is it!" The old feeling and the story took me in. Meantime i played book II also. And enjoyed it very much.

[Queklain666]

this game is one of the few great games these days

[Xankara98]

The exact same graphics as Book II.

[EdgeStormcrow]

No multiplayer no buy.. when will companies realise we want a good, hard, oldschool style ROLE playing game with magic swords.. and oh yea.. MULTIPLAYER?

Everyone just wants a mad RPG they can play with their friends.

[CamRaiD]

Just finished this game... If you are wondering if you should buy it ? DO !!!

Its is very addictive gameplay, and you can sit it in a window in the back ground and just flick over whenever you want and play it. Its lots of fun. Just downloading the next one :)

[bullno1]

The rendering code is super unoptimized.

The game literally crawls on my computer.

Starwar Kotor runs fine.

Planescape torment runs fine.

Dungeon siege 2 and Neverwinter Nights runs fine.

And this bloody game crawls.

I'm off for some Azure Dream now.

[Vend1cator91]

looks like diablo 1

[nivakitty]

I beat this game. Was loads of fun :)

Can't wait to play #2

[germanboy686]

I just got this game, but is it really that hard?

[Veke99]

This is a very hard game

[trkka]

I tried playing this game and just couldn't get into it. Just not my type of game.

[gontxo]

but its one of the best RPG i have ever played

[Queklain666]

@kszim you talk about yourself, right?

[Yumminess0]

I LOVE THIS GAME

I bought it after I reached the end of the demo.

[RabidRat88]

Tried the demo but got bored real quick.

Combat is tedious, especially at night,

with little variety.

The dungeons give a sense that they are made so that you waste a lot of time in them but not much goes on.

Generic storyline that does not make up

for the decent graphics.

Too many predictable interactions just leave

you wishing you were playing Ultima

or Mines of Morgoth instead.

Overall : 9/20

[handofstand]

Well then, even though Basilisk Games didn't make a complete game (at least that's what it sounds like), this serves as an excellent demonstration of the power of the BlitzMax engine.

A large part of it is how you use the tools, eh?

[Lloydbn50]

this looks like diablo 1

[evildeadlies]

everything is not always about the graphics. you can have the best graphics game out there but the story line or the gameplay can be complete fail!

[VarykGerai]

@evildeadlies like AoC? ^^

[sacreebluee]

u probly suck at video games!

[Queklain666]

@updown454 then you are a really pathetic person.. the graphics are great, but douchebags like you can't see it because they are blinded by idiotic effects and "realistic" graphics. seriously, go out of your home then you have reality -.-

[RunuRunner]

I also have problems with this and my comp. It's laggy even though it doesn't look like that big need of requierments. Besides that I love it.

[Noobster123720]

I downloaded the trial too then played for 1-2 hours and i went bot the full version XD fucking addicted already HELP! XD

[sslaxx]

Glad I brought this!

[GamersBlogVids]

wow nice game, looks pretty.

[kxmode]

I remembered playing Ultima 7 and loving it. Is it like this?

[elstyr]

Played the demo for 40 min, then bought the full version (no, I still don't know where the demo ends, never came that far :). Playing the game since 17 hours, it addicts definitely. Its like in the old days. Turn based, pixel graphics, combined with astonishing sound and visual quality. One of the best!

[TheDudeMan130]

I've never played it but to me just watching the game... i dunno it looks questionable i have nothing to say about the storyline/game quality in its self but through what the game looks like (graphic's wise) it doesnt look too interesting to me but what

Evildeadlies said is completely correct it doesnt matter if the graphics are good or not... i personally would not pay 20$ for this. Atleast for what ive seen.

[lenneavy]

Anyone who likes cRPG should try this game. Stroy is intresting, textures are hq, items and skills balanced in good way. Plus it will work on almost any pc. Start to play when u have alot of free time, cuz u won't stop till u finnish it.

[AjkoKatekeshar]

I thought lots of people had problems makin it work properly. I have too.

[konoko1984]

Hardcore old school! I can get it only from their site?

[golfernpr]

I must admit ive lost alot of sleep on this game and im still early on it is truely awesome

[chook151]

this is very fun

[Tryambakam]

this game keeps me from sleeping at night its soooooo good...its amazing!

[vash47]

holy shit, it looks awesome!!! I'm glad they are still making games like this.

[oom10]

can you play it turn-based? because in JA2, one could.

[farvardin14]

yes, it's fully turn-based, but made in a way it doesn't look static at all.

[nickp1987]

It's out! I own a copy, and I will say that it is awesome.

[davoelolz]

there is a demo at ausgamers

[shihonage]

This looks great. The movement and the engine in the video feel really polished and hand-crafted.

[kajlik]

it's soooooooooooo much different!

it's like comparing H2 with fucking lambo!

[Bilanovic]

OMG must have

[LordOrionMDW]

OMFG, an old school RPG... i want it NOW!!!!

[mpburton]

Wow !!! Kick ass dude !!!

[Gamehag]
