Looks nice. Combat reminds me of Dark Messiah with all that physicality, slow downs and barrel throws, which is a very good start.

 

[MrRibeye]

I feel like every game involves the player fighting either an alien or a medieval monster.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

Awesome looking art style. Too bad it's an action RPG instead of a more detailed RPG. But as per Tinto's steam link, it has this pic to show character/inv.

You gotta expose yourself to more games, homie.

 

[Killer8]

Mad lads demo'ing the game on keyboard and mouse. I can see the comparisons with Dark Messiah although I doubt it leans into that game's amazing physics as heavily. It reminds me more of what I wanted Avowed to be.

 

[struggler_guts]

Early acces this winter? I'll probably get it if they nail the variety like dark messiah did

I can recommend Football Manager 2024

That's a trap! Once you get hooked, your free time is cooked.

Hm? I think it makes sense to show and play the game on keyboard and mouse since this is a first person game. I personally wouldn't play something like that on a controller, so I don't see anything crazy here lol

 

[deeptech]

Looks good, polished and almost unusually tight. Seems like these guys are doing serious work, unlike most nowadays.

No Aliens or Monsters though, so far.

On topic this looked really cool, but very, very far away.

This is relevant to my interests. THQ be cookin'.

 

[DenchDeckard]

Looks frigging insane graphically.

 

[Durin]

I'd also echo the gameplay from the trailer definitely gives off some Dark Messiah of Might and Magic vibes...which I'm all on board for if the execution is there.

Definitely no Sweet Baby detected

 

[DavidGzz]

Needs moar gore in the beginning. The hits weren't juicy enough. Maybe it was omitted for the trailer. In for EA.

 

[Msamy]

Nanite and lumen full power showcase

 

[IAmRei]

looks fine, i think i will wait and see
the intro actor reminds me to ordinary guy one of the character at concord : ))

 

[Lux R7]

looks fantastic, i'll try it for sure

 

[SilentSpecter]

PC Ex?
Good, no downgrade.

Like the art style. Ill check it out.

 

[archangelmorph]

Avowed: UE5 Lumen's Trail

 

[Kataploom]

Looks amazing, I'm not sure if I'll be able to run it with by 6700 XT but I'll try it for sure, it wait for a upgrade when it finishes it's early access

 

[Represent.]

Goddamn. About time we got a PC exclusive that takes advantage of hardware. There should be way more of these. Looks incredible

 

[GymWolf]

Looks great, please be good.

 

[TintoConCasera]

Are we sure this is a PC exclusive? Might be that it only mentions Steam because of the early access and might come to console once it reaches 1.0?

In any case yeah, the game looks great in the trailer.

 

[The Cockatrice]

Gotta give props to UE5 for making janky games look better in trailers, thats for sure, but time and time again has proven that these rarely end up above good. Wishlisted tho.

 

[Jinzo Prime]

Avowed: UE5 Lumen's Trail

Avowed wishes it had animations that weighty. And this artstyle is so much better.

 

[roosnam1980]

whoa , this looks excellent , please dont disappoint.

 

[Gonzito]

Looks great

 

[Gamer_By_Proxy]

I'm starting to realize I like a lot of THQ Nordic titles for some reason. They're not even the same genre or developer, but they seem to publish AA games with heart or character.

 

[DavidGzz]

OMG, rewatched it at home and this looks amazing(was on phone previously in the sun). I'm not big on FP but will make exceptions when they look this immersive. Almost like a medieval version of ILL's tech.

 

[Fess]

I feel like every game involves the player fighting either an alien or a medieval monster.

So what do you want then? Humans? Zombies?

This is perfect. The game looks very promising.
Looks like UE5 though so it'll be interesting to see performance….

Yep They didn't even have to tell us which engine it was running on.....We Know.

 

[Gubaldo]

Oh yeah!!
Now we talking

 

[SILKYSMOOTH30FPS]

This looks way too nice for a 10 man crew. And yes, i understand it's UE5 making it easier, but i am sniffing bullshit from a mile. This is not real gameplay, and when the early access comes out later this year, pay attention to animations and visuals, it won't even be close.

 

[Sentenza]

I'm fully expecting this to have virtually NOTHING qualifying it as a "RPG", but I'm tentatively interested anyway.

Second Dark Messiah wannabe I've seen in the last few months, by the way, but to its credit this looks like an actual game rather than a "target render" attempting to bullshit people with unrealistic hype.

EDIT . The other one is ALKAHEST for the record.

 

[L*][*N*K]

Aight I am in

 

[DenchDeckard]

We need more PC exclusives again so I welcome that at least.

 

[SilentSpecter]

Checked out the team. It's just a small 10-person studio from Germany, and some of them previously worked on SpellForce III (which I'm not really familiar with). The problem is this kind of game is going to take ages to develop… though I hope I'm wrong. Plus it's Early Access, kinda reminds me of Witchfire (also a small studio).

Interesting that they haven't announced any other platforms yet – only Steam. So is it a PC exclusive? Or just the nature of Early Access?

 

[Hudo]

I can recommend Football Manager 2024

Are female teams included?

 

[GymWolf]

Avowed wishes it had animations that weighty. And this artstyle is so much better.

And it was also nowhere near in term of microdetails.

 

[clarky]

Are female teams included?

Of course not, I was suggesting something without aliens or monsters.

 

[Dr. Samuel Hayden]

Avowed but not shit

 

[Senua]

This looks fucking awesome and exactly what I thought avowed was going to be after the first trailer. Like asmongold said

"Avowed with no pronouns"

 

[Soodanim]

I like the look of it, and I hope it comes to fruition. Wishlisted.

I don't believe a single second of that video will ever make it to actual gameplay. Even with UI prompts plastered all over it.

That's usually how early access from small teams works. One you have a hit and you start gaining positive feedback, you can release it on consoles with the official release, though some may do it before. Playstation is pretty hard on what early access games can appear on its store.

 

[Cyberpunkd]

I feel like every game involves the player fighting either an alien or a medieval monster.

What's there more to fight? Serious question.
