February 27, 201510 yr Today we have some information and screen shots on Raedric's Hold for you all! The Raedric line has held dominion over the lands surrounding Gilded Vale for generations, and its formidable keep stands as a bulwark against the dangers of the Dyrwood. Despite their lofty position as Aedyran nobility, the Raedrics joined in the fighting for independence from the Empire during the War of Defiance. In the wake of the Dyrwood's victory, they retained both their stronghold and their stature. Raedric VII now carries the title of Thayn, pledged to Gilded Vale's defense against all threats - both physical and spiritual in nature. Raedric's iron-fisted rule has seen his people through many hardships, but in the aftermath of the Saint's War, new threats have arisen - threats Raedric has sworn to scour from his lands and reclaim some of Gilded Vale's past glory. At his invitation, new settlers have braved long distances to settle within Gilded Vale, tempted by the offer of land and opportunity.

February 27, 201510 yr I was going to wait until the first few patches to balance and fix bugs, but this looks like a place just waiting to have my Cipher raid.

February 27, 201510 yr Luckily, we need not speak to type, so we actually get to convey how awesome these screenies look. Should we not start with some Ipelagos, or at least some Greater Ipelagos, before tackling a named Arch Ipelago? 6_u
February 27, 201510 yr His keep looks like a Cathedral. Clearly this Thayn has a high opinion of himself. So I guess Thayn is a pretty significant title in this world? Is it kind of like a 'Count' or 'Earl'?
February 27, 201510 yr Looking good. "Well, overkill is my middle name. And my last name. And all of my other names as well!"
February 27, 201510 yr Looks really good! My wife saw the screenshots and said they look "very '90s" :D being PoE the spiritual successor to IE games that it is, I would say, "mission accomplished"!

February 27, 201510 yr Regarding those sreenshots really creates the feeling / look of BG and IE games. Nice work!
February 27, 201510 yr Looking good. Can we get some shots of the outdoors so we can see the wonderful wilderness?
February 27, 201510 yr nice, but what seems to be the main building looks like a cathedra. I wonder if it is on purpose
February 27, 201510 yr It's a gothic castle. Gothic style architecture was also prominent in many European cathedrals. "Things are funny...are comedic, because they mix the real with the absurd." - Buzz Aldrin."P-O-T-A-T-O-E" - Dan Quayle
February 27, 201510 yr When abouts was Raedric's Hold implemented during development? The art on the walls makes it look like it was later on. I also hope he gets up out of his seat and fights. Edited February 27, 201510 yr by Sensuki
February 27, 201510 yr I also hope he gets up out of his seat and fights. I kinda hope he never gets up, and just had his "royal" (or whatever) animancers animancipate the throne from its stony, stony prison. (JETPACK THRONE!) Should we not start with some Ipelagos, or at least some Greater Ipelagos, before tackling a named Arch Ipelago? 6_u
February 28, 201510 yr TBH I think Raedric needs to imprison the guy that installed his leadlight glass because some of them aren't in the middle! @sdunny - the glass isn't straight, re-render it mate! Edited February 28, 201510 yr by Sensuki
February 28, 201510 yr Maybe asymmetry is really big in Eora, u_u... Should we not start with some Ipelagos, or at least some Greater Ipelagos, before tackling a named Arch Ipelago? 6_u
February 28, 201510 yr By the way, this topic should probably be pinned? One has to scroll down a bit to see it.
February 28, 201510 yr This one's from polo on the RPGCodex, who is an architect That? Thats nothing. Explain this:<-architect
February 28, 201510 yr A railing would probably be nice there. Should we not start with some Ipelagos, or at least some Greater Ipelagos, before tackling a named Arch Ipelago? 6_u
February 28, 201510 yr This one's from polo on the RPGCodex, who is an architect That? Thats nothing. Explain this: <-architect Didn't he mean that he thinks the architect responsible must be a troll, since he had the "architect" pointed at a trollface in his original post?
February 28, 201510 yr Is it math or magic, how do you guys simulate interior fire light passing through stained glass diffusing into the haze outside. It looks so good. All Stop. On Screen.
February 28, 201510 yr I think it's a 3D directional light that lights up the post-processing fog in the area? They also have different renders to simulate lighting on the 2D image itself. Edited February 28, 201510 yr by Sensuki
