KickStarter Knights of the Chalice 2 Thread - Augury of Chaos

[Ontopoly]

I hope this work schedule fits for you.

I literally have nothing going on in my life. Your schedule is my schedule.

And for Discord, I've just created a server there: https://discord.com/channels/717046121935142922/717046121935142925

Doesn't work. This isn't an invite link. You need to post an invite link, not a direct link to the channel.

The worst thing about the first game was definitly that there were only 4 classes

The worst poart about the frist game was that at big city you realize that your KKCW party is shit and you should have went KCWW

I didn't get hit with this revelation until the bonus post-game battle, which I firmly believe is impossible as KKCW.

Those who claim to have beaten it with this party are lying. Any YouTube videos I'm not aware of demonstrating this feat are deepfakes.

I have no idea what he's talking about though, i refrained from checking the new classes & races to save the magic for my first playthrough.

 

[ralphonzo]

Red, blue, black, white... Sounds like some weeb shit.

 

[Pink Eye]

I don't know why it costs more money to get a Steam Key.... Anyways, backed on the Codex thing. I hope there will be some sweet monk sprites!

I think he's saying all wizards are on a spectrum or something.

I guess because Steam takes its 30% cut

 

[Pink Eye]

I guess that makes sense.

Maybe he can into money afterall.

It doesn't if you generate keys as a developer.

You can generate infinite keys for your game and sell them on your own website or give them out for free (as review copies, gifts, whatever).

This is how third party Steam key sellers like Humble store and Fanatical work. Steam doesn't get a cut for purchases made on third party sites.

1. The first module for the game is already finished. The game releases ASAP once the KS is over.
2. There were Kickstarters before that had future DLC as a backer tier, and they delivered.
3. If Pierre goes bankrupt, he'll just eat roots again.

No, not roots again! We had to wait for many years for KOTC2 because of the root diet. And it's still not out yet.

Thank you JarlFrank! The invite link is https://discord.gg/NzPhMWm.

One reason is that the Steam version requires extra work to get all the Steam achievements in, and maybe a leaderboard as well, while the direct-download version is already done.

all wizards are on a spectrum or something.

The colour thing is a character-creation option, each option gives the Wizard access to different feats. Wizards and Druids can also choose not to have any specialisation. Cheers!

 

[Rpguy]

I have no idea what he's talking about though

​

When you pick a druid you have to pick a sphere, fire empower your fire spells, water empowers your healing spells, earth your earth spells ( like earthquake or magic stone ), Air your lighting spells and cosmos just gives you more spell slots... My favorite is water druid.
Wizard picks a color on the same idea, red empowers fire, Blue enchantment, Black is necromancy etc. In addition you later on at high level can make a transformation that changes you physically and gives you great powers, the transformation is different for each color. My favorite is red wizard.

I'd laugh about it, but the truth is I couldn't do it better.

Update #12: A Closer Look at Adventure Maps, Part One!

Adventure Maps, Part One

Hello everyone! In this update, we will have a look at four Adventure Maps: Goblin Caves, Swamp of Despair, Lava Bridge and Gladiator Pens. These are all top-down background maps, but I would like to create isometric backgrounds for upcoming adventure modules, in the same style as Baldur’s Gate 2 and Temple of Elemental Evil.

Goblin Caves

Swamp of Despair

Lava Bridge

Gladiator Pens

KotC 2 Discord Server invite link
I've just created a server on Discord for KotC and KotC 2, here is the invite link: https://discord.gg/NzPhMWm. I will also add the link on the left-side menu at www.heroicfantasygames.com.

Reddit Ask Me Anything
A Reddit AMA session is planned on 11 June from 8 am Central time (9 am Eastern time, 3 pm Paris time). We'll do it at several places simultaneously: r/Games, r/rpg_gamers, r/DnD and r/Pathfinder_Kingmaker.

Special Thanks
I would like to give special thanks to all the KotC 2 Kickstarter Backers for your awesome support in spreading the word to the Four Corners of the World!

Yesterday, there was an incredible increase in the number of Twitter followers from 255 to more than 700! As a result, we’ve unlocked the first Social Goal reward: Custom Spell Effect Sounds + Cure Scroll Auto Recast Option. It seems kinda hard to keep all the new Twitter followers though, as the number is slowly dwindling since yesterday.

After focusing on Twitter, let's try focusing on Youtube and Facebook now!

I would also like to give special thanks to RPG Codex for the awesome support provided through the years. They even have a KotC 2 fundraiser on their website at https://rpgcodex.net/campaigns.php?id=28.

I would also like to give special thanks to RPG Watch for the awesome support provided through the years. They even have a KotC 2 banner on their website at https://www.rpgwatch.com/.

And I would also like to give special thanks to Robert Sambat for creating the KotC 2 tavern music as well as the KotC 2 Bardic music snippets.
