Dreamlords Digital released a early pre-alpha combat gameplay video last week. It's a chance to see the game in action, and to decide if it's worth pledging.

Don't get the shoddy reaction to this game. Back during the golden age of KS, games this far along would be hitting one million at least. Tons of games with nothing but rough concept ideas got tons of cash, now games with full playable demos and running alphas/betas don't get funded. It's insane!
Suddenly it's cool to rag on Kickstarter so all the cool kids (ie. everyone lol) decided to just shit all over the games and not back anything but the biggest titles. The very ones that could find outside funding. Kickstarter was… IS for those for whom outside funding isn't a possibility!!
And as for all the evidence "all kickstarters are scams that fail and are vaporware" their examples are either games that are just taking a very long time to make (ie. the KS project was pure concept only, no prior work done so take much longer), or are games run by obviously inexperienced devs that anyone could see is a massive risk.
The list of successful projects that saw an official release is much longer than that of successful KS projects that flopped.
Already backed this game, this video just confirms that it probably was the right decision. A shame more people don't feel that way, don't think this one will make it.
I didn't care for the Jrpg type graphics and the weapons that are larger than the person carrying them. I never play games like that. I don't care whether it can be played on a phone, but I need my weapons and stuff to look realistic. The character art didn't work for me either.
I really like the turn-based combat and movement, fueled by action points. Will keep my eye on this one.
It's really cool that you came on here and replied to us all. No matter what, you made some long term fans that will be pushing to get you more attention and awareness on the various sites we frequent. There have been projects that have bounced back. The great thing is your game has a unique quality that is absent in most games. Reminds me of Planescape: Torment in that that are many contrasting elements all piled on top of the same world.
Not to mention how you got typical monsters replacing the cliched "elf, dwarf, orc" combo many of
us are so sick of. It's wildly imaginative and bright. But in a self aware way, going over the top on purpose. Can't not like it!
