Might and Magic Might & Magic X Pre-Release Thread

[Wolfus]

Vampire wine cellar dungeon is probably my favorite quest ever I am not sure why, but I totally love it.

Julien Pirou talks about his background and the genesis of Might & Magic X: https://mightandmagicx-legacy.ubi.com/opendev/blog/post/view/51fa7240888ef6c213000001

I think one of my posts on their forums inspired this psot.

 

[Luzur]

so he got into MM in 2004? huh, i kinda thought he was older.

No, that's just when he first tried to create a MMIX sequel.

oh, i see, i read it from the wrong end.

well, everyone cant be an old grognard like me.

Your time to shine y'all.
Community Dungeon story is set – dungeon building starts!

 

[Infinitron]

Hey, that's pretty cool. And kind of lazy. But mainly cool.

 

[Stabwound]

Well, this is easily the best promotion they've done so far. Not a huge fan of what people have selected previously, but outright designing the dungeon is cool. I someone someone makes something brutal and long.

Finally some MMX promotional

 

[Luzur]

hm, i have been dabbling in RPG designing (mainly in RPGMaker) mayhaps i should make a go at it?

Go for it! They might not accept the dungeon of one of their VIP members though, so you might wanna ask them about that before you begin

God that Ravens Klaws guy on the forums is one dumb motherfucker

maybe he is Drog?

 

[narupley]

Looks like they'll be putting in several more portrait expressions per character!

 

[Infinitron]

Why wouldn't they? It's trivial to implement.

It was funny seeing everybody to jump to conclusions about there being only 4.

 

[Absalom]

Lol where's eradication

Well originally they weren't going to have dynamic expressions at all IIRC. Odd since like you said it's rather trivial; even I could create quite a few good ones using Photoshop and the original portrait.

My guess is that Limbic have some kind of awkward outsourced art pipeline, and so they're very hesitant to publicly commit to any new graphical assets.

*cough*[INSIDERINFO]it was planned from the start.[/INSIDERINFO]*cough*

I see, and they just wanted us to think "Wow, Limbic is listening to the pleas of the community, how benevolent they are!"

dunno if the community asked for that at the start, all i know is VIP members got the decision through.

I think what Luzur meant is that as soon as they decided to add portraits, all of them were planned, not just the four we saw at the beginning.

 

[moraes]

No insanity?

 

[Lady_Error]

No insanity?

Agreed. The current face expressions are sort of boring, unlike in previous M&M games.

 

[Cyberarmy]

No insanity... no drunkards...and shallow experssions, well at least they tried..maybe we can hope better for M&MXI
Well at least I'm getting a shield bearer dwarf.
