Knightly Fate (WIP) beginner

Will you be able to establish your background (PoB, family, heritage), What kind of stats will there be like Combat, Intellect, Charisma, or will it go more in to depth like in Lucid games where you increases blades, bows, etc.

@EmperorHeartless yes you can choose your background and heritage. For stats I was thinking of combat, riding, socializing and leadership.

@KD16 no, there won’t be any gender locked

@WulfyK Lords of Aswick did give me some inspiration and there will be two other races other then human.

If there will be other races will each race have a starting set of attributes or attribute boosts? And will you be perceived differently by NPCs. Like one race is well liked while another is shunned upon or treated as 2nd class citizens.
Also romance. Pretty sure most people will ask, but is there romance and if so do you know how far in depth? Like in Lords of Aswick (although it felt more like formal than love based marriages) you could marry, have kids, see them grow up, etc.

Also for heritage will it be a choice of several set childhoods that you can choose or will you be able to have a mini segment where you went through your childhood which and more or less established your basic stats and gender and the like.

@NeoHeartless Each races have their own set of unique attributes, like for instant humans is the jack-of-all-trades type of race. For romance I don’t know yet, but if there is, it’s not going too far in depth. As for the childhood, I’m thinking of a mini segment that describe your past.

I’m just going to say take away the “k” in the title, and it completely changes what the game is about.

So true. 20 words minimum.

Will the battles be in depth, such as making choices with troop movements, and actions with our individual character during the battle, that can change the outcome of it?

@NoGo It’s going to be quite in depth but during the first battle you’ll follow orders more then you ordering people what to do

Ooh I could be king you got my attention.

are you just planning your rise too kingship or also some stuff while being king?

also from newly made knight too king thats a lot of rungs too step up my friend.

This seems interesting.

i love medieval games sooo, you have my support, good luck :wink:

Yeah, if the battles will be in depth you got me hooked. Normally in games, the battles aren’t very, interesting so I’m excited to see where this goes. Also, yeah, if in the first battle we are a nobody, then I expected that we wouldn’t really have a lot of freedom in it with the battle choices.

less “freedom” in what we do but maybe some in how we do

I meant it as in, we didn’t help with “army” choices, such as tactics and whatnot, but we have choices that just mainly affect (or is it effect)our own character, and how they would be perceived.

it think we are one the same wave length

Don’t bend to their pressuring. They just want to become kings no matter what story you have planned for the characters!

I wish you all the best on your writing and the schedule. The outline sounds great.
How much of a stickler are you planning to be on realism with the low fantasy? Are you going to go full-on romantic image of knights or a more brutal realistic approach?

Only point of advice would be to think up different names for the kingdoms, unless you’re already really set on using the ones you have. Unique names will help people get into the world and I think having those names might pull them out of the experience. Perhaps moreso than calling a land Albion, for instance.

@Bob_Rijke Road to kingship, but if you guys like this game I might create a sequel

@Goshman thanks for the advice and I’m going for a brutal realistic approach

also not that i am the best person too do it for you but if you want some help with story part, i`ll help as best i can.

I loved your game, but it never let me be king or at least have the princess. But still loved your game.
