Hehe, but you are the one who trying to decive me that womens were equal to man in 15th century central europe. Its political correctnes which trying to imply something which is not true just because it is unconfortable for you (or some womens) and to be fair, you are the one who is reacting only on parts of post which fits you

I am Czech, so I know story about Elizabeth Bathory and as you stated she was countess, not blacksmith and as you states she was murderer, not warrior. She actualy didnt go to town and find victims, she have subjects to do that. And for record, she was murdering maidens to bath in their blood to keep young. Political correctes doesnt have anything to do with democracy, Its just tool to push through ideas that are against common sense but some minority could be offended so they mist it with words to not offend anyone. from wiki: Historically, the term was a colloquialism used in the early-to-mid 20th century by Communists and Socialists in political debates, referring pejoratively to the Communist "party line", which provided for "correct" positions on many matters of politics. The term was adopted in the later 20th century by the New Left, applied with a certain humour to condemn sexist or racist conduct as "not politically correct". By the early 1990s, the term was adopted by US conservatives as a pejorative term for all manner of attempts to promote multiculturalism and identity politics, particularly, attempts to introduce new terms that sought to leave behind discriminatory baggage attached to older ones, and conversely, to try to make older ones taboo. This phenomenon was driven by a combination of the linguistic turn in academia and the rise of identity politics both inside and outside it. These led to attempts to change social reality by changing language, with attempts at making language more culturally inclusive and gender-neutral. These attempts (associated with the political left) led to a backlash from the right, partly against the attempts to change language, and partly against the underlying identity politics itself sorry If it seems offending but I like to call things by true names

19th century is not 15th. What is so shocking about it? You want to rewrite history because its now 2000+ and womens are equal now? And someone mentioned Boudica - well she was not living in catholic culture. Dont get me wrong - I am for equality but this is historical fiction and in these times women were threat badly. If setting would be set between amazon warriors I would not shout at dev that I want to play as man. I dont get why someone cant grasp on that fact. Political correctess all around again?

Which thawed permafrost cave did you just crawl out of? They describe it as an RPG that is not a medieval simulator. So, a female pc is an obvious choice. They have already acknowledged this themselves. However, they are making the game around a male character, much like the Witcher games. I think that is unfortunate, but referring to medieval reality in a game produced beyond the year 2000, really? It's yet a fantasy game, for goodness sake. Should we exclude female characters from all medieval inspired games while we're at it? Then we'll have that cosy, sweaty locker room feeling, where boys will be boys, and women are from Venus. Medieval views of women are best kept medieval. Ehm no, its not fantasy game, it have accurate historical setting. Yes its true that some blacksmith guy would probably doesnt become king (as it will not happend in game) I dont know how would you like to loose combat as women character and then get raped. Watch Joan de Arc movie and its still flavored fiction. In fact Joan didnt ever fight, she was just icon to boost morale.

Women thing again even here? Really? Yeah you are all right, women in 15th century in central Europe were equal to man, right. Now lets talk about unicorns in space

Well they are not gathering funds for game itself. 500K bucks is no-way near of funds they need to finish it. Its purpose is to give their investor confidence that there are people who want such game to continue financing them

I dont like it as well, but if you want all 3 acts for reasonable price I suggest to pick only act 1 now. Devs stated that it was on purpose to put other acts so high now. I bet you will be able to get it after Act 1 is released for 20-30 bucks each. Here is some explanation: We definitely intend to make Acts II & III and release them as soon as possible. However, our funding and schedule does not reach past first Act. We will finalize our plans for the release of Acts II & III when we get closer to the release date of Act I. For these reasons we don’t want to offer and promise them as a Kickstarter reward in their own right. We want to use them as a token of our gratitude to higher tiers backers, but you should think about it more like 100% discount offer than a guaranteed reward.

This is sort of where I'm at as well. A year ago I might have backed this despite it not being directly up my alley. But I've backed a lot of games in the last 2 years, most of which have not released. In order for me to back anything else, it has to be something I'm completely interested in, from someone with a proven track record. I just don't feel like donating my money for a game that is at least 2 years away, made by people I've never heard of, and with some basic gameplay I'm not totally sold on. All that said, I have a feeling these guys won't have any trouble raising the $300k they've asked for. I know a lot of people who would trip over themselves to play a game like this So make sure to let them know

Kickstarter to support AAA game Kingdom Come. Realistic RPG without magic and monsters: You will not find any dragons, half-naked Elven warriors, or wizards in Kingdom Come: Deliverance. At no point will you have to collect seven pieces of a legendary magic staff to defeat an ancient evil bent on destroying the world with an army of demons. We think there are enough such games out there. We want to bring you a strong story rooted in the height of the Middle Ages, brought to life in all its glory. So what is Kingdom Come: Deliverance? Think of it as Braveheart: The Game. Majestic castles, armored knights, large, open field battles, and political intrigue set in a vast, emergent world. We want to make the experience as authentic as possible – real-world locations, real castles that don’t look like something from Disneyland, period-accurate armors and costumes, combat and fencing systems designed in collaboration with the most knowledgeable, skillful swordsmen around, and a story based on actual, historic events. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1294225970/kingdom-come-deliverance here is some promo video: please help those guys.

Shameless advertisment for Kingdome Come on kickstarter (not started yet)

Does it mean you are not working for your personal profit? Your Boss must love you (if you are still in schoole just skip my comment)

so political gender correctness discussion again? I am male and mostly playing male characters as well. I definetely doesnt have six packs but I am not insulted at all if someone play character like that. As long as it have at least some meaning I like 'attractive' womens in games. What problem is it?

Myron BABY!

All great except these atributtes. I just cant hang on it. I thought that basic attributes should somehow characterise person. Sorry but if I tell about someone that he is ''Penetrating'' what the hell it means? I am not fan of Might as well. And Int give greater AoE for barbarian cleave? just no for me. Anyway not big game breaker

I was playing CK2 Old gods last night for around 5 hours. I was trying to make Great Moravia slavic pagan nation with custom made king. When I start game i got rebels in month or two - thats fine I dealt with them. But after year or so Hungary just roll over me with 10K+ soldiers and I am just done. I tried it 5 times and always got screwed by them;. Oh well no pagan Great Moravia for me

Finally, something comes along that almost gives me a reason to get a Vita. Almost. Ah, Japan. Thank you for being Japan. Whoo, I know that Japan got some weird anime games, but this is some new level. I would actually enjoy cooking game for first time of my life! Why there are not more games like this promoted in Europe

hard to guess, but Legend of Grimlock wasnt kickstarted? not sure, but there is a lot of people who already 'bought' game through kickstarter support so it mean less revenue after release

That is quite disturbing Rosbjerg

I bought some ultimate edition few weeks ago and now thinking about replaying Skyrim again with all those DLCs and stuff. I gone wild on Nexus and get quite good mods I found interesting. Now when I slay my first dragon I dont absorb his soul and game stuck . Isnt there some mod similiar to OOO for Oblivion? I dont want to test 10+ mods togather to discover in middle of game that its broken.

So I can go sleep now, no update today? ahh ok almost 1am here

*Knock knock* Is there that warm up party here?

Damn my English, you are right. Its more frustrating now tho You two gave me hope as well as I getting emails about posts in this thread

Going to do my periodic monthly rant abount lack of progress. Also seamlessly helping to open new page so Tigraness have it ready for new update

Instant memory flash of Ultima Online, best fantasy MMO so far but not much practical for PE imo.

Nice update! However buildings and overall placing of srtuctures in stronghold seems strangely scattered and chaotic. I would expect buildings leaning next to walls then placed into open ground etc. Good example would be Candle Keep
