Title: Hero's Song Post by: Signe on November 14, 2016, 11:12:11 AM It's in very early access on Steam. Smed and cronies made it. It's not really an MMOG, I don't think. I'm not sure what it will end up being. It is allegedly hardcore survival and has permadeath but at some point you will be able to create your own world and modify that. Someone gave me a gift card and I bought it. I haven't been able to last more than ten minutes. I can't kill anything and everything can kill me. I guess I could kill a bunny but, OMG, they are so cute.
Somebody play this before me, pls. Srsly. Title: Re: Hero's Song Post by: Count Nerfedalot on November 14, 2016, 01:11:45 PM Multiplayer/PvP?
Title: Re: Hero's Song Post by: Signe on November 14, 2016, 02:08:04 PM You can make your own server or join one with the sorts of permissions you like with pvp, permadeath, etc. I think the focus is actually pvp and survival... it IS Smedley, after all, and he's all about the "hardcore", you know. :grin: I think, at the moment, you can make a world for up to 25 players.
I think your best bet is to buy it and play it and then you can come back here and tell me all about it. Try and do it while I still have time for a refund. Just a suggestion.... Title: Re: Hero's Song Post by: Rendakor on November 14, 2016, 03:01:27 PM It looks interesting but it's the sort of thing I would only want to play solo. And I'm not paying $20 for early access nonsense.
Title: Re: Hero's Song Post by: schild on November 14, 2016, 07:14:06 PM I like Smed.
I don't know why this game or studio exists. Title: Re: Hero's Song Post by: Yegolev on November 15, 2016, 07:31:05 AM Signe, go back and read your first post and let me know if any of it looks hauntingly familiar.
Title: Re: Hero's Song Post by: Signe on November 15, 2016, 08:33:41 AM My first post in this thread? Ever? I don't know what you mean and I will remain not knowing what you mean until one of us is dead. Maybe longer.
Title: Re: Hero's Song Post by: Bzalthek on November 15, 2016, 11:16:29 AM It's cute. It's barebones and not a lot to do. Skeletal Archers fuck me up with how accurate and deadly they are. My Necromancer's Skeletal Archer is a skeleton of Corky Thatcher with a nerf bow.
Also, finding a dungeon took me hours of searching. I can see it being a fun little diversion, but I don't see it having a lasting appeal, especially for the jade community. Title: Re: Hero's Song Post by: Ginaz on November 15, 2016, 03:36:46 PM I like Smed. I don't know why this game or studio exists. I don't like Smed but even I know he's wasting his time and talent on this. Title: Re: Hero's Song Post by: Ginaz on December 19, 2016, 05:12:28 PM Well, I think you can stick a fork in this one. Seems some staff members have already left and the company is short on cash. Never a good sign for the future.

Title: Re: Hero's Song Post by: Gimfain on December 26, 2016, 12:06:54 PM The game is officially cancelled and they are refunding the game.
Title: Re: Hero's Song Post by: schild on December 26, 2016, 03:09:00 PM I like Smed. Got our answer - no reason whatsoever.I don't know why this game or studio exists. (well, passion, but oof, that's a tough road) Title: Re: Hero's Song Post by: Draegan on December 27, 2016, 05:46:40 AM I think this was the obvious outcome.
Title: Re: Hero's Song Post by: Teleku on January 11, 2017, 04:05:45 AM Whole lot of skulls for the MMO skull throne the last few years.
