Vapourware Realms Beyond: Ashes of the Fallen - Chaos Chronicles reborn and dead again

[Martyr]

instead of talking about Jarl's political views we should talk about his superior taste in gaming (--> he likes Thief THIS much <--) which should be an indicator of the high quality that is to be expected in Realms Beyond.

Is Codex Tier 1 publication in the eyes of Ceres?

Which games could have been covered in a Codex Gamescom report?

• BG4
• Realms Beyond
• Pathfinder Kingmaker
• NuGuild 3?

 

[JarlFrank]

Will Codex have a Gamecom reporter this year now that JF is on the other side?

I doubt it. Bubbles is no longer among us and there aren't any others in the area.

So all you'll get this year will be the official Realms Beyond Gamescom updates.

 

[Abu Antar]

Why don't you cover Gamescom, say everything is shit and then praise Realms Beyond.

Perfect strategy. What could go wrong?

 

[JarlFrank]

Yes, I could also interview the devs of Realms Beyond, including their writer!

Sure, but you would have to scrutinize the writer. Make him sweat. Ask them uncomfortable questions.

 

[AbounI]

What about Grunker? He used to cover it past years.

 

[fantadomat]

Also you may add a few gossip stories from the workplace,spice it up a bit and send them to kuktako or poly-gone.

Amazing, these developers convinced Guido Henkel to come back to RPG's. He still has a lot of fans waiting for him

 

[Dorateen]

Guido Henkel, Creator of Worlds.

 

[ArchAngel]

So Guido is the main creative guy, JarlFrank is just a water carrier.

 

[vonAchdorf]

Will the game feature a Nemesis system Psycho Engine?

yep, he's Dragon on their forum.

[Big Wrangle]

Damn, didn't know they managed to bring Guido back into game development.

 

[Infinitron]

Wow, I think I saw somebody say this on Shoutbox a few months ago but thought they were bullshitting or something.

Next thing you'll tell me Guido was also behind Chaos Chronicles all along. Why'd you hide him until now?

 

[BEvers]

If any developers are reading this, I'd also like to know more about Guido's involvement with the project. Is this really a "Guido Henkel game" where he is in charge of things (or just in charge of the writing at least), or was he brought on for his fan base on Kickstarter, like Chris Avellone? Or something in between?

Some of you may know me as “Dragon” in our forums and I am the Creative Director of Realms Beyond, which means, I am overseeing the creation of the content that you will eventually play in the game.

I do have a background in game design and I’ve worked on numerous roleplaying games before, in a variety of capacities, and when I joined the Ceres Team some time ago, the first order of business was the general world design.

While we’re using assets and code from the never-released Chaos Chronicles project, we decided early on to create the actual content for Realms Beyond from scratch. But where do you start designing an open world roleplaying game?

Aside from re-familiarizing myself with the D&D rules of version 3.5 and looking through all the already-created assets and materials, I had a completely clean slate. Peter (aka HobGoblin42), our project director and lead programmer, had only one guideline for me: create a believable world, rich in detail, that appeals to fans of classic fantasy games and literature.

[BEvers]

It apepars Guido is the creative director and in charge of all the content, but he was keeping his identity a secret until now. That's an awesome surprise!

You can argue all you want that swastikas don't mean what people think they mean and that you don't care about what people think about what the Nazis did, but you do know as well as I do that in today's, shall we say, sensitive political climate, any and all affections you've clearly plastered all over the place here at Codex and likely elsewhere towards Mr. Hitler and his friends aren't going to be looked upon with much tolerance.

Outrage equals exposure. Exposure equals sales. Crispy equals pussy.

Was this just a compliment to crispy?! Did you just say that crispy brought up the topic because he wanted to make a controversy so the game could sell more

I was pretty hyped before this revelation but now it is over 9000

This post maybe ?

That was it. You never did provide citation.

But how was I supposed to when such citation didn't even exist until now ?
