Age of Decadence, An RPG developed by an indy dev Options

[stargelman]

Some of you may have noticed that I have been ranting and raving about how Oblivion was everything but a proper RPG and a big disappointment to me in many ways. Well, despite the fact that most games labelled "RPG" these days contain as much roleplaying as Super Mario Brothers, there are still some games being made that deserve the name. Games with choices that effect the game world, with lots of dialog, tactical combat, many many skills, you name it.

One such game is Age of Decadence, being developped by Iron Tower Studios. It's their first game. They have a website up here. Now, if you expect Oblivion quality graphics, you'll be disappointed. If you expect a good RPG similar to Planescape: Torment or the Fallouts, then you might like this. A lot

There's also an interview up by GameBanshee with Vince D. Weller, the main force behind Age of Decadence here.

Wow I checked out the screenshots, it actually looks like there is some roleplaying involved from the conversations. I hate games where no matter what option you pick its always the exact same outcome and this doesn't look like one of those.

Also appears to have plenty of skills and factions as well, I'll be watching this one.
