Blackguards - A turn-based RPG from Daedalic Entertainment
Does Blackguards have what it takes to become a epic turn-based RPG game?
It´s been like forever since i played any turn-based RPG game. But i might just give Daedalic Entertainment´s "Blackguards" a try. Cuz it seems to be pretty awesome. However, i wonder if it´s just yet "another" RPG game. Or if Blackguards will offer something new to the genre?
Well, i'm having serious thoughts about geting the Blackguards early access via Steam (it costs 25 Euro). I guess that i just have to make up my mind about the whole thing.
About Blackguards:
"What happens when the only hope of a threatened world lies not with heroes in shining armor, but is placed in the hands of a band of misfits and criminals? Blackguards, the new turn-based RPG by Daedalic Entertainment, explores this very question.
The player takes on the role of a convicted murderer who must use the help of a team of more than questionable characters to save the world from a dark menace. Through this wild chase throughout the South of Aventuria, the world of The Dark Eye, there is more to fight than vicious creatures. Chapter by chapter you’ll encounter a story full of intrigue and surprising twists.
Time and time again, the moral compass of the player will be tested. One does not beat Blackguards without getting their hands dirty. But when life and death are in the player’s hands, how far will they go to reach their goals? The first turn-based RPG by Daedalic Entertainment unites the studio’s high standard of a suspenseful storytelling and unique characters with gripping tactical battles in elaborately crafted 3D-environments.
In a taxing campaign, the player takes part in a dark story full of doubt, betrayal and loss. Over 180 individually crafted battle maps full of interactive objects and strategically complex situations expose the player to exotic locations and put them through deadly trials."
