it's a thestral, obviously.

 

kk I'll show myself out

From what I've seen in all KS game screenshots using Unity so far, they seem to use stuff like bloom and blur rather generously, I'd like to ask if it will be easy to turn this stuff along with shadows completely off for a sharpest shadow-less image possible? (I don't like them from an aesthetic perspective) Or if not, will it be possible to turn them off via a config file at least?

[Amentep]

I think I may have to start ignoring Project Eternity news for awhile.

 

While exciting to see all these updates and screens its also making me boundlessly impatient for the game! Lol.

Come on guys this debate is just stupid.  If you zoom in on the image you can clearly see tufts of fur behind his ears and large brown fuzz splotches.  It is obviously a Flying Monkey.  You can even see his little drum behind his wings.

[IndiraLightfoot]

 

in the end you will be level 8-9 with side quest you can get to level 12(level cap).

That seems like a weird number for the level cap. Are they planning to raise it in an expansion or something?

 

 

Yes, and I've already bagged that expansion!

 

One of the screenies, a subterranean intersection, has some weirdly textured floor. It's far too shiny and furrowed, it also lacks that dusty, messed-up feel that other screenshot had.

 

The short fellow looks cool. What can we tell about him?

As a note, those are all work-in-progress shots that were intended for (small) use in print.  None of those are finished areas.  Even the "original" area is still having work done on it.

 

Hey Josh, since everything you guys are creating is 2d, what's the target size for your character models as far as poly count or screen size, or for the art assets in general and what dictates that limitation?

The character models are actually 3d models, not sprites.

Yeap, the only thing that is 2d is actually the environment maps themselves.  All characters, enemies, and objects in the game are 3d.

There is no procedural bloom or blur on any of our assets.

Love these shots, especially the detail on the characters

[Failion]

Character models could use a little more detail. Look at relics company of hero, level of unit detail. The games been out for years though so the developers had years to enhance the textures of the units. Visually the game looks better then its sequel that was just released. Project eternity has the background environment graphics I say nailed down pretty good. But right now I say the character models look a little blocky. Not as bad as fallen enchantress. Slightly better looking then temple of elemental evil. Optimal graphics would be where you wish you could replay a battle and watch all the spell effects, animations and zoom in your characters.

Early WIP and no IQ.

[Archmage Silver]

I take this as a sign that there's more interest in PE now... or at least that's how I interpret these "leaked" screenshots.

[Labadal]

They aren't leaked screenshots, they are from a German(?) magazine uploaded to the net.

[Lephys]

These are exceptionally cool and look awesome. However, given that screenshots have leaked, obviously there's no point in trying to keep secrets anymore and you should just release a crapload more information, screens and videos.

 

You may respond this makes no sense. I don't care, do eet anyway!

"On an all new Big Brother: Obsidian Entertainment, Chris and Josh struggle with the coffee maker, and tensions rise! Also maybe some new game footage!"

I'd probably pay them money for that. Sad, I know.

 

[StrangeCat]

Nice to see the progress of Project Eternity with some pics, they look great!  Only those are way to small.  If your going to share make the images bigger.

 

Also do you want feed back from your backer's?   How are you going to make each area alive.  Mist in the morning or fog at night over the forest floor etc.

How will you make dungeons and caves come alive?

Hey my bad I was able to see the full screen shots at rpgcodex

thanks

Or, you could have clicked on "originalgröße anzeigen" at the link.

[Sedrefilos]

Ok this is great stuff. I really liked what I saw and, having in mind this is only early pre-alpha, I imagine the finished ones! I already get some great atmosphere out of those pics. Keep it up

[Prometheus]

[Infinitron]

Are those two big countryside images concept art or screenshots?
