Spoiler

This is the comments thread for Knights of the Chalice 2.

I totally inserted KotC 2 into the Game DB.

Here's an update:
- done designing the spell lists,
- done the character-class illustrations,
- done formatting the web pages for races, equipment, weapon groups, spell schools, Barbarian, Bard, Death Knight, Monk, Paladin.
- still have to do the formatting for Ranger, Cleric, Druid, Psionicist, Psychic Warrior, Rogue, Sorcerer and Wizard (a heck of a lot of work for someone who's not working on it full time)

Sounds good. Death Knight though? What's that, a prestige class?

 

[Malakal]

Meh, he just had to include all of those psionic classes... For me they feel more like SCi-Fi setting than fantasy, yes I know there is dark Sun but still I hate mixing my mages with psionists, especially since both do the same.

 

[Andhaira]

Woohoo go Death Knight!

You mean all 2 of them...?

And who prevents you from not mixing mages with psionicists?

Also, Death Knights:

I wonder what sorcerers are for. Wizards in KotC already are sorcerers.

 

[Dyskolos]

I got excited but then realized I'd seen this all a few days ago on his forums. Still, the more coverage this gets here the better, especially as the dark days of DA2 approach.

Afaik some sort of mixed arcane and divine caster.

Nice to see so many new classes available for play. KOTC was good but it was sorely missing in the diversity department. Does anyone know if a release is planned this year? I couldn't find anything on their forums.


Also:

DA2>KOTC2 R00fles!

 

[mondblut]

Yay, finally there is an RPG in development!

 

[Roguey]

Still a damn shame he can only do this part time. It'd be nice to have it at the end of this year but I'm not expecting it.

 

[MicoSelva]

Finally, a rogue class. We might be able to get proper dungeon crawling this time.

 

[Serus]

Yay, finally there is an RPG in development!

 

[GarfunkeL]

Good news, can't wait!

 

[Fowyr]

Yay, finally there is an RPG in development!

 

[commie]

Will there actually be a game to go with the combat this time?

 

[Leimrey]

Hope it will be actually hard this time around.

EDIT: with all the popamole shit running around, I really hope that they'll properly implement the Soulflay profanity. Degenerating health, FUCK YEAH!

 

[Crooked Bee]

[Havoc]

There was a Death Knight in DnD? Too much WoW? :/

 

[Fowyr]

Dunno about Death Knights as PCs

 

[Mortmal]

yeah and read up to see who asked him for an update...Sad he's working part time on it, guess hes not making a fortune with kotc.

 

[Castanova]

Right on bro! Along the same lines, I hope the next version of Tetris has some actual gameplay.

 

[mediocrepoet]

I'm happy enough that he made enough that he felt making a sequel is worthwhile at all. It'd have been great if he'd have been able to focus on it full-time, but the market's not exactly flooded with upcoming titles that are recognizable as RPGs these days, nevermind decent/good turn based ones.

 

[Serious_Business]

I know this is troll post, but I'm wondering, would you actually care about story written by a random guy with a computer science degree who has a passion for dungeons and dragons? Just let this be an autistic stat fest, please, or we'll get derpy shit like Eschalon 2 again

 

[desocupado]

That Death Knight thing seems overpowered as hell.

He probably will modify it though, since in the first game, it wasn't exactly d&d3.5.
