The Verge has an interesting piece on it too.  Got to love stat limitations, both on the overall character as well as each stat. It's mostly in the single digits so that should keep things from becoming little more than a numbers battle. The stats do sound a little weird(Armor and Break stats) but they do function nicely, at least in theory. I like that you can reduce the strength of a combatant, bringing him closer to death and making him do less damage at the same time. The willpower stat should allow some seriously strategical play, especially with the stat limits.

Also, it looks like there are six stats though The Verge only mentions four though: Strength, Armor, Break, and Willpower. Did Stoic say what the other two are elsewhere?

Also it would have been cool to see more battlefields with height and what not. I hope the PC version does well enough to justify screwing the touchscreen version. The one thing I really didn't like is the timer. I hope we have the option to disable that in both the multiplayer and singleplayer.

I'm genuinely disappointed that the "big guns" of the industry are no longer producing games worth my time, but it's equally gratifying that smaller companies are salvaging the situation.

So Stoic released a video update on KickStarter, with some footage from the single player, some music, etc.



They're going to be rolling out the beta for the KickStarter backers soon too, all you have to do is be registered and verified on the forums.

I agree. The drawing, animation, and music in this game is fantastic. This Austin Wintory guy is a really good composer. I feel pretty bad about pledging only 10 dollars during the KickStarter now.

They won't have the 'specs' until the game is further along, but I wouldn't expect them to be demanding. The game is largely just 2D drawings.

Just watched the video at new update. Game looks gloriously beatiful and combat (after07:00) looks fluid and satisfying.
My only wish is a bit more bloodshed, i need to see heads roll, arms/legs fly!

Sometimes im afraid of meself :devil:

Game is going very good considering its only early beta period. With every new character they add gameplay changes :) And there are 10 more characters on the way.

Viking Chess ^_^

These guys have their sh*t together. The latest update provides what more Kickstarters should do - specific goals and design info on the game. It also helps that they seem to be well into production.

Man, I'm loving Factions. Combat is brilliant. It's great getting an update and I'm glad I had backed them.

Exactlg why this was the first Kickstarter I pledged. These guys have a solid grasp on how to plan and produce.

Factions gone live. Its F2P on steam, starts with a nice video and simple tutorial. Then you jump into meat grinder.
Word of advice, try to damage oppenet armor early and defend your archers well. They rain hell on unarmored enemies at end game if they are strong enough.

What's this? A new indie RPG? I've ONLY just heard of it... Vikings eh? BioWare-like dialogue and... dialogue?

Sold.

So is this a single player RPG, or what? I have really no idea what it is about, do these guys have a youtube channel or a kickstarter page?

Its mainly a single player RPG with tactical turn based combat, they have released MP part of the game where we battle against other players with similar parties.
