Risen


Ametlik koduleht: Risen
Publisher: Deep Silver
Developer: Piranha Bytes
Stiil: RPG
Väljalaske kuupäev: TBA

Uus mäng Gothic seeria tegijalt.
Jätkatakse ikka enamvähem samas stiilis aga kuna Jowoodi ja Piranha Bytes-i teed
läksid lahku siis tehakse seda nüüd uue nime, koha ja tegelaste abil.
Lisainfot ja piisavalt palju huvitavat lugemist saab eelmainitud linkidelt.
Kindlasti on see mäng "must have" kõigile tõelistele Gothic seeria fännidele.

Tasemel tegijad, tõenäoliselt ebaoriginaalne stsenaarium, leierdatud temaatika, stereotüüpidest kubisev maailm, iidne kurjus - miks mitte. Võib hea olla .)

[Araablane]

Sellel mängul mingit seotust Gothic ka on?
Aga muidu väga ilus tundub olevat, sellel vennal oli muide hästi lahe SEASILM

[veso]

Viimase peal environment, uurin veel mängu kohta ja jääb ootama Gothic tegijatelt võib midagi head tulla.
Muusika ja ambient soundid tunduvad ka väga mõnusad.

[Winterwind]

mitte ei või miskit head tulla vaid tulebki

[Araablane]

Aga kes seal Gothic seeria tegijatest siis alles on?
Sest nii palju kui kuulnud olen siis Piranha Bytes on ainult sponsor ja õiged vennad ei tegele sellega enam või kuidas lood on?

[Winterwind]

Gothic 4-ga ei tegele enam õiged tegijad ehk Piranha Bytes.
G4-ja õigused on Jowood-il ning vaevalt, et Gothic-u tegelasi väga Risen-s
näha võib. Kuigi noh, voice actorid, musategija jne-jne on enamjaolt ikka
kõik Risen-is.

[Araablane]

No see voice actorid ja muusika on tegelikult ju suhteliselt huina muina imo
Eks peab ära ootama aga ei usu et tuleb midagi nii vägevat nagu G1 ja G2 olid

[Cyberlord]

Ootan põnevusega

[marcor1]

[veso]

Üks esimesi asju mida ma mängus vaatan on muusika ja ambience soundid(RPG'de puhul), kui need on head siis on hoopis teine asi mängu mängida kui mingit tuima vaikset mängus kus pole eriti midagi muud kui mõõkade kokkulöömis helid ja sammud.

[Winterwind]

reliisist niipalju, et asi peaks sel aastal ilmavalgust nägema.
Erinevad allikad väidavad launchiks suvi-talve algus.

[Araablane]

[aise]

nojah PS3 võiks ka ikka tulla

[Winterwind]

[Andykas]

Ei saa aru mis teema seal on, ei tohi linnast lahkuda? Ja siis mingi tempel "tõuseb" maa seest?

[Evil14]

Ma ei tea mis kamm on, aga mul juba näpud sügelevad selle pela järele

45 mins hands-on:

Spoiler

"I actually got some hands-on time (about 45 minutes or so) with a beta build of the game and it's excellent. Deep Silver was in NYC yesterday with Risen, Cursed Mountain (a truly amazing and innvative horror game for the Wii), Mytran Wars (PSP), The Humans (DS) and a DS Chess game I forget the name of at the moment. I'm in the process of writing up a hands-on for my blog:

http://fanboydestroy.blogspot.com/

and I'll post a link once it's done.

Quick random impressions: they had the PC version on one side and the 360 on the other to show how good they look side by side. Other than the sharper resolution on the big monitor, both games look exactly the same. Obviously, the PC version has plenty of hotkeys and such, but in terms of control, both games were pretty fluid. As the build wasn't complete, there were a few hiccups in some tight spots and the English lip synching needed to be completed. The English voice acting is spot on from what I heard. We did see a bit of the German version's synch from that more completed build and it's nicely done, so no worries there.

Quick rundown of the demo (most of this will be enhanced for my hands-on):

Your guy wakes up on a beach - there's been a shipwreck and you seem to be the only survivor. First thing you see is how amazing the game looks. Piranha Bytes really knows their stuff, obviously and RIsen is striking right from the opening moments. You search around for items (they're shown as words onscreen thanks to the amazing amount of detail in the game world) and eventually find another survivor, a woman named Sarah. She sends you to look for some sort of weapon (there's a stick nearby) and when you find it, you'll be asked to find some sort of shelter.

Heading through a jungle-like area, you meet up with your first enemy, a tall white & black "vulture" that looks like an angry ostrich with a mohawk (well, a lot better-looking than that). Combat is combo-based and very direct. Click away 'til dead, dodge or backstep from enemies and try not to get surrounded. Your character's battle stance actually changes as he levels up, so in the beginning, he's looking fairly new to the sword, but as he grows, his weapon handling skills and poses become more confident - a REALLY nice touch

Anyway, once you kill Big Bird, you move on and cross paths with a big ol' porcupine thing. it's pretty nasty, as it rushes you and can knock your HP down in no time flat. dodge and swing, it's dead and you move on. A big wolf to kill and soon, you're seeing the game's first structure, a dilapidated cottage where a bunch of scattered goodies await.

There's a frying pan, where you can cook the meat you've taken from the dead animals on the handy fire outside (and that fish one of the bodies in the shipwreck had in his pockets, a bed to restore HP, a barrel of water outside (heals a tiny bit of HP) and other stuff to pick up. inventory is UNLIMITED, so you can grab that broom, a rock and anything else that's not nailed down. PB did this to let players have that kind of crazy freedom and not worry about stashes or how you're going to carry that big ol' bastard sword you're eyeballing in the Harbor Town shop. You can play as you wish, so if you like a small inventory, it's all you.

Anyway, once you find the house, you can go get the girl and she'll stay at the house while you explore some more. Behind the house, there's a pathway that leads uphill where a few more vultures await. enemy AI is fierce! if you run past a creature, it WILL follow you as long as possible (until you or someone/something else kills it). There's a ruined temple-like structure at the top of the hill (nice tilted angle, too)... could be the game's first dungeon - shall we go inside?

Down the stairs and yep, it's a dungeon. A small dungeon, at that. A step or two in and D'oh! it's a traaaaaaap! Pit trap.With a big, mean flying thing at the bottom. Crap. Kill it (quickly, as there's almost no room to move), open the chests (if you can - in the build they were easy, but other chests have a fun mini-game where you need to "turn" a lockpick using the arrow keys), grab the goodies and head up the stairs. make sure to JUMP when you get back to the top floor or else you'll fall back down the trap. In the builds no falling damage was in place, so I can't comment on how far you can drop. I jumped of a small cliff (about 10-15 feet) and suffered not a scratch, but I landed near a few of those big vultures, which did me in rather quickly!

Anyway, back outside and there are a few places to explore near the dungeon. We're told we can travel anywhere. There's a seamless world with no loading screens from what I saw, even when you go into buildings. Stronger enemies lurk off the beaten path to keep low-level characters from wandering too far, but you can do as you wish. I decided to go back to the cottage and past it to explore more of the game world. picking up a few plants on my travels (mint, mushrooms, healing herbs and such), there's another beat-up house to explore. As soon as I stepped inside, a cutscene took over introducing a new character and what looked like was going to be a showdown of sorts.

Nope - it's just a guy who eventually says this is a dangerous area and to look around and find another weapon in the house. Once that's done, he's sitting outside and after some dialog, he'll escort you to a farm area nearby. Here you can either take on quite a few quests for the different farmers (shades of Gothic II) from picking herbs to exterminating a pack of pig-eating wolves to a couple of fetch-quests and the like. Everyone has something interesting to say if you ask, or you can ignore them all and try to make it on your own. In this area, enemies are in packs (save for a stray boar or wolf near the farmlands), and that sword you just got really won't cut it for long, as I discovered while being killed a few times by giant moths and those vultures.

On the PC version, we got to see a few of the later areas, a lot of magic spells (you learn them as the game progresses), a monster menagerie area (which probably won't be in the final build - it was just a map where thy guy demoing showed off some monsters and spells) and even some cool transformations (gorilla, nautilus) your character can do. There will be some Gothic references in the game (you'll need to hunt them down, naturally) and a lot more, but I'll save that for the preview...

as for why you need to pre-order this if you're interested (cut 'n paste from the other topic here): that's actually bad for a game like this that's not being over-hyped and pre-sold to the FPS-fed masses. There's a nasty "consignment" system in play where if no one pre-orders a game, the game doesn't get purchased in any decent quantities (if at all in some cases). If a GameStop or EB or even an Amazon sees a big surge in interest and actual cash pre-orders, they're more willing to take the risk of giving the game shelf space. If people wait weeks for every single review to drop, that's bad for Deep Silver's bottom line as the game's "launch window" has closed and in some cases, retailers will drop the price on a game to move what they consider a non-selling or low selling title.

So, while it may be good for you to buy a discounted Risen, it's bad for both the developer and publisher, period. A good games journalist will do what he or she can to drive interest toward games such as Risen or Cursed Mountain, not say or think something like "well, this won't sell because Fallout 3 is still hot" or "Well, I already played (insert name of open world RPG here) and they're all the same..."

Risen is very much a Piranha Bytes RPG, so if you like their work and appreciate what they've done for the genre. go pre-order the game! Don't wait - you KNOW you're going to get a quality product that's going last you a good long time. I only played a short time and I walked away wanting to play a lot more."

Veel üks RPG arvuliselt loendamatusse nimekirja pealkirjaga TBA.

[limp]

amazon annab 2 oktoober ju reliis dateks...

[kriist]

Sama teeb ka zavvi.co.uk.
Seda "45 mins hands-on" teksti lugedes ja screene vaadates tulid G2 ajad meelde.
Ei suutnud enam vastu panna ja panin pre-orderi teele

[Scart]

Nii sõbrad, idanaabri manu ja nende keeles on mäng väljas. Inglise keeles siis teine oktoober.

[Gizmoz]

väga hea , peab ka juba 2-st oktoobrit põnevusega ootama

[Evil14]

Teine oktoober, tuleb ära oodata, rebaste retsimine küll, aga suudan vast mängule hiljem baaris edasi mõelda.

[Winterwind]

tahaks juba pelada.. krt pidin ma videokaardi maha müüma

[heretic666]

Üheksa korda mõõda, üks kord lõika

[Scart]

[Winterwind]

HD4770 oleks alguses enamvähem kõlvanud..
aga jah, too gameplay video nägi ikka sigahea välja küll

[limp]

Boarid on nagu Gothicuski über kõvad kohe alguses või siis ise olin nõrk esmapilgul nagu tavlaine gothic tundub, hüppamine on natuke ulme, ideeliselt hüppad ja siis keerad kuhu tahad ja siis tüüp nagu õhus seisab natuke

[dex]

/me ootab kannatamatult, mida piranha bytes on seekord üllitanud.

[Probleem.]

Kohutav pela on. Graafika on eelmisest sajandist ja jookseb nagu puhas sitt. Bugge on ka sitaks.
AA ka puudub.

Kindlasti MITTE osta!

[angel]

aga pane dogshit brown ja bloom peale siis on nextgen ju

mängu eestis vist keegi pakkuma ei paistagi hakkavat... steamis hind kirves

[marcor1]

Kas korralik stsenaarium on ka asjal või ainult - kill the evil & lineaarsed kõrvalülesanded mis pole omavahel seotud. Ehk kas tegemist on RPG või lihtsalt actioniga?

[Araablane]

Juba väljas?
Õh kõik mängud viimasel ajal maha maganud, midagi head ka siis?

[angel]

2 oktoober tuleb välja. Eestis saadavus 0, ainuke võimalus vist UK'st võtta või Steamist osta. UK'st vist tuleb isegi odavam mis tekitab suure ? märgi selle steami jura kohta (miks hind kirves).

[heretic666]

[Scart]

[Winterwind]

sita arvutiga jookseb muidugi sitalt.

[libe]

[Winterwind]

G3 ei jooksnud 8800GTS-iga?
ju see oli siis selle nvidia physx-i pärast vms

[angel]

mida see physx üldse seal risen'is teeb? Keerab ainult jõudlust maha ja näitab kui piixusti ta suudab pea sama asja teha mida havok (nagu tavaliselt sedasorti mängudes)?

[limp]

eitea, minul küll 1280x1024 (sorri monitor ei kannata lihtsalt kõrgemat resot ) jookseb asi väga hästi max settingutel. bugidest niipalju, et kui mingiks löömaks läheb ja sa kogemata kedagi omadest koksad, siis pärast õiget võitlust lennatakse sulle kaadriga peale
ma ei tea kas asi on minus, aga võitlemine on ülimalt raskemaks tehtud - ei ole nagu g3, et click, click click ja vastane maas. päris mitumitu korda loadinud et ühte näkast tegelast maha saada.
mängin normaliga

[DeTHiCa.]

jep. jookseb suht normilt max settingutel. ingame AA'd ei ole. graafika täitsa kena, maailm detailne. gravitatsioon on ainult veits kahtlane... mis neil õige arus oli ?

[heretic666]

Ehk ahvisid red Faction : Guerilla Marsi gravitatsiooni ? Milles see imelik väljendub, ise hangin ka selle pela endale.

[denis28]

hüppad ja samaaeg saad nagu õhust keerata ennast päris raske kedagi maha tappa, mitu korda juba proovind metssiga maha saada

[angel]

Ehk on asja mõte see et oled palja jalu käiv päterdis kellel on ainult mingi tölp tera riist ja võitlus oskus suur 0 ja ei peagi asjast jagu saama? Nagu gothic mängudes omane. Ega sa päris elus kah alukate väel nürida kaikaga metsigu maha niida.... See ei ole Oblivion vms pask kus terve mäng on läbitav level 1'ga ja ükskõik kes vastu tuleb saab pikki tatti ning raskus aste on kogu mängu jooksul üks ja sama... gruppi viisiline level up. Gothic 3 oli vähemalt väga selgelt piirid paika pandud kuhu sai minna kuhu mitte. Ehk siis pidid ikka oskama kah midagi teha enne kui edasi lasti.
