Get your first tease of gameplay from Alkahest, a new first-person medieval fantasy action-adventure RPG from developer Push On that bills itself as a spiritual successor to Dark Messiah of Might & Magic – while also citing Dishonored and Kingdom Come: Deliverance as its influences. In it, you'll engage in close-quarters combat, explore realistic medieval locations, learn alchemy, and more.

Dark Messiah vibes (at least the physics kills)

One of those fake trailers. Ingame animations will be nothing like this

 

[GymWolf]

Looks more fake than my prosthetic left testicle but i still got a boner.

 

[pudel]

Interesting.

There's a 2 minute trailer on the Steam page. Looks real as fuck.

Yeah, real life even. I'm waiting for the third-person patch.

Every time this game gets mentioned, I think it's a remake of this gem

Which desperately needs a remake or reboot

Yes. Average consumer IQ is like <100

Oh man, I hate that shit.

If you take a 3rd person game, cut out 90% of the shit you can see and hear, you have a first person game.

First person never adds, it takes away.

3rd person games can add 1st person EASY, it's just a camera zoom. First person games have to be redesigned, maybe from scratch to add 3rd person. It is a major event when a first person game gets a 3rd person perspective. When a 3rd person game gets a 1st person perspective, it is Tuesday. If I was a developer and had to do all that work, my game would be in 1st person too.

Enough on my rant, the game looks no go to me until I see metacritc rating....
