[Poll] Will C-Rpg survive the storm?!

Modifying Topic and Post after long time is evil

As long as there's nothing else out there like this:

- No ridonculous, endless grinding of NPC's to level/skill up
- No repetitive 'instances' or 'dungeons' till your hand turns blue and falls off
- Manual block & parry
- Manual first-person & third person style aiming for range
- Manual weapon swinging with physics involved (i.e. jumping, spinning, etc) for harder hits
- Medieval theme with semi-authentic historical gear & weaponry
- Siege weapons
- No candy-ass high fantasy bullshit

...cRPG will survive until something comes along that can do this better and maybe look prettier doing it.

It seems that player base is decreasing in last few days.

As expected, all Online Games take temporary hits as new games pop up.

I can't see myself personally abandoning this game except to take Skyrim out for a spin and to dominate Dark Souls prettier, but far inferior, melee combat. I'll still probably end up playing this more as I've already abandoned Dark Souls until the patch.

Yah, Mount and Blades combat mechanics are one of the most complex yet rewarding design in my opinion. Shooters don't offer that personal level of conflict, and most other sword games just involve *press button to do combo*.

I'm really growing bored of Warband, i play for like 10 mins at a time and turn it off, i'm just hoping my computer can hack Skyrim, if so, bye bye Warband...

Exactly.
I played Age of Conan which had, up to that point, the best combat system I had ever played.  You had to manually complete the correct chain of combos while also being in the right position to do so, and try to avoid being interrupted at the same time.
However, Warband's system is even better than that.

Maybe in the near future we'll be playing Warband-type games in virtual reality.    But then again everyone will be tired as fuck after the 1st 30 minutes.  Heh.

"Warband-type games in virtual reality"

Until then, Valhalla is our only hope O:>

Well IMO a game that could combine the whole stat mashing of Demon/Dark Souls and the 4-way attack and block system, chambers and held attacks of M&B would have the best melee mechanics (not counting horseback in).

When you think about it, Dark Souls would need only very minor ajustments. No more locking, 4 types of attacks and blocks, held attacks, zoned damage, movement tweaks, there ya go. Ofc it can only work for pc. In fact it would be richer than M&B because of the backstabs, rolls, sprint and all the stamina related features.

cRPG forever. I used to play xbox on like cod and shit like tht but I always was into medieval and fantasy stuff. So I then changed to a pc and played Wow and that was ok but lately it had become pretty shit. This is the only game ATM that I play alot coz I just adore the unique combat system and I think it is the most realistic out there. Sure, I have preordered skyrim and mw3 on xbox but after a while I will defienately Come back and get to the next generation. I also love the crpg community. I love the way that it is small enough to know ppl but not so small that you always play with the same ppl. It is great to join a game and see people that you have played with before and just say hi without joining their session or whatever.You can get to know almost everyone and that also appeals to me. Cod is just playing with loads Ghost pro skilless noobs. On this game it Is hard and skillfull to feint and block and generally play well ( unless you are an archer ;P)

Well, what do you guys think?

What would make you want to play C-Rpg more than any of these upcoming games?

Some seriously big hitter are coming: Battlefield 3, Skyrim, COD, Skyrim, Saints Row the Third, Stronghold, and Skyrim.

Skyrim.

SKYRIM

[LordBerenger]
