Life is Feudal (now on Steam Greenlight!)

[Christo]

I'll believe the combat is anything like M&B when I see it with my own eyes. I very much doubt this team is capable of putting together anything as smooth and dynamic as Warband's combat, especially this early in the alpha.

but come on xant it's only 'pre alpha', pre alpha beta alpha, stop judging the game xant, bad bad xant

most overused shit argument ever

Maybe they have 200000€ to launder. That would be next level.

He was demoing cooking in live stream, and I asked as a joke if you can attack with cooking pot and he showed the animations

anyway should be uploaded to youtube afterwards will link.

looks like the game will probably be released as alpha next year, but because they don't have money for servers it will lag, and thats why they wanted to avoid letting everyone in alpha straight away.

Yeah but  most of us weren't really questioning Alpha, it's the Beta prices that are the big issue IMO. By beta, stress testing should be one of the high priorities in an MMORPG because that's when all the optimization and changes need to be made to make it work before release. Not letting people into Alpha was not the reason their prices were high, the reason was their bad judgement and lack of research, which has ultimately lead to the failure of this campaign.

All that being said, the game does look like it would be a lot of fun, I will support and play this game if and when they get it right, even if that means waiting until the game is on final release, but I'm not gonna pay extortionate rates to play in a Beta.

I wonder if their indiegogo will go over 6000 euros before the end of their campaign.

its kind of irrelevant at this point because there is no point really in donating when you know they are not going to reach 200k, I mean I would get my money back but its still a waste of time setting up a payment.

seriously this kuroi kid.  you just really want to give him a good slap.

Yeah, he's certainly not helping. That's the problem with "fanboys" in general, when they're hostile towards people asking questions about a game, or commenting on it with critique, instead of trying to understand it, they simply go straight to harassment or at the very least writing an extremely rude response, which of course never answers the questions. This gives a lot of potential players a bad impression about a game's community, which they then usually don't join unless someone they know recommends the game, plus up until then they'll "bad mouth" it in some form. Ironic really, but as always people who think they're doing something good is actually doing something really bad.

Their CM/rep should though write to these guys in PMs and explain it to them.

[Torben]

true,  but unfortunately their whole cm seems a bit off,  their dev is a bit whiny as well instead of being the godly donkey a dev should be.

This + CLANG really make my heart bleed.

Every ambitious medieval independant crowd funded game failed to this day

Except our dear chadz game!

[Xant]

It isn't hard to theorycraft an awesome, ambitious game. What this and CLANG have in common is that both were epic only in theory and neither have been able to do anything epic in practice.

[Banok]

I think its an insult to compare this game to clang, clang isn't even close to an actual game its just a failed tech demo. One thing that impresses with LiF when you watch video is just how much content is for "pre-alpha", all those buildings/skills etc.

I agree theorycrafting a game is the easy part, but I honestly don't think clang even succeeded at that. it was quite obvious to me from the start that this was a flawed concept, eloquently sold by that writer chap. If you want 1v1 realistic swordfighting, you just go to a fencing/kendo class.

If you want realistic cooking or treecutting, just cook or go cut down a tree irl. How does this not apply to LiF?

*sigh* really?
if life was feudal was ONLY a cooking simulator, that was literally all you could do, that would apply. but cooking is only part of its simulation of living in a feudal world.

PS: yeah pretty sure kuroi is established retard in the MO community. The darkfall guys are the worse, they expect demand every sandbox mmo to be like darkfall. darkfall was probably the most fun i've had in a game, but its design is terrible and its not even really a sandbox.

If you want realistic fighting, go outside and attack people.
