No News is Good News?

Unread postby Angelspit » 05 Jan 2006, 14:43

It has been weeks since we last heard about Dark Messiah... It's hard to believe the game will be available in stores this Summer.

Anyone else is excited about that game? I can't wait to play my first Might and Magic deathmatch.
I'm on Steam and Xbox Live.

Most people are more eager to have HoMM5! Me i'm just hoping it will be enjoyable!

One question if i may. Was the last movie (from first look) that with Erwan Lebreton? Thanks.
I can't wait for this game to come out. But first HoMM5. :D

Yes, the last movie I saw was the one with Erwan (but I might have missed one). The movie had a very high image quality, with some very interesting info and battle sequences. I feel like downloading it again.

Thanks. I really like the sketches, I admire people who can draw that good. :D I like that part of the sentence "...For all future Might& Magic games." that Erwan said. ;)

I think I won't be able to resist the temptation the game outpours and play it - although I don't want to.

However, I agree that no news could rather be good news. They seem to be working hard and might release an impressing and fun game :)

It looks a bit too violent and bloody for me. Besides, I don't like FPS much. I'll buy it anyway though. I want all Might and Magic games, no matter what. :baby:

Nah... you're just crazy!

Me, i don't like to get my hopes up. I'm not into FPS that much anyway, but if it's any good i'll play it.

I noticed that most games that require it are console ports. Most straight to PC ones usualy have it as an option.

I bet I won't be able to play DM, but I'm probably an exceptional case...

Also on cover of PC Gamers, 2/06.

Both issues discuss Dark Messiah at some length.
