Hmm, the Feral Vampire concept looks a bit like a Vargheist or Varghulf from Warhammer Fantasy

Lol Guys, not that it matters, but told you there was a reason behind suddenly jump-starting this project and going public with it, after so many years:

Why did you decide to develop a new game now, 20+ years after the release of Restoration of Erathia? (Silent)

This is a big question to answer, but I will try to be concise.  When I left game development, I was burned out and unhealthy from years of stressful working conditions and crunch.  I tried other professions, specifically, writing, stock options trading, and ultimately... foreign currency trading.  It took years to learn how to profitably trade the currency markets, but once I figured it out, I suddenly had spare time on my hands.  With this extra time, I began to crave a return to computer game development.  Slowly, I started to reawaken my game design skills, when disaster struck.  My foreign currency broker collapsed... and I lost everything.  I no longer had a choice.  It was ‘game dev or die’, and Fanstratics is the hill on which I have chosen to fight.

Just a friendly advice to not overhype anything as you might get burned/disappointed...

Guy has money issues = when he goes Kickstarter and is succesful the "money" might tempt him...

That is very considerate Blob, but I think we got it after you said it a certain amount of times already :

blob2 said:
I appreciate you're hype, but so far this looks rather under-budgeted. There are myriad clones of the formula, some better some utter cr@p. Many claim to be "spiritual successors" of the franchise so I wouldn't get my hopes up.

I also don't see any potential of this being a "serious" project.

More then Ubisoft, but that doesn't mean they will make something great.

I'll keep this projects in mind, I might even consider crowdfunding. But for now I'm off cus I don't want to kill your optimism any more then I already did

I simply state that's it's not in a phase that should generate optimism yet.

don't feel sorry if it turns out not how you wanted it.

I say that I don't have any reasons to think it will be a succesfull project at this point.


All of this after your very first post which was

blob2 said:
Looks like some cheap mobile game. Spiritual successor is nothing more then a PR move to gain some interest (everyone knows fans of the franchise are starved for any news). So nothing other then what Ubisoft has been doing for the last couple of years

Pass.


Well... Pass then?
I don’t understand why you feel the need to keep posting your negative sentiment on this project every single time there is a news or someone enthusiast about it.
We got your point.

Well I don't understand your post?

I reacted to Fulton literally confessing he's in for the money (which was my suspicion from the begining), and then proceeded to react to Baronus post and tell him to take things with a grain of salt. That's all.

Are you Fultons fanboy? The fact that he made a game we love and that he is an ok guy (probably), doesn't change the fact that some of his statements aren't exactly convincing...

May I ask what have you contributed to this thread if you're so eager to criticize the posts of others? And I'm not all negative I do enjoy his art

Just getting tired of your constant negativity every time something happens in this thread. If you are not interested by this project you can just ignore it.

Just last week, I saw over 12.5k people, largely Russian, watching HoMM3 multiplayer games on Twitch. It absolutely blows me away, when a 20-year-old game I designed, creeps into the modern Twitch top 20.  I knew HoMM had Russian fans, but I had no idea the base was so large, so dedicated, and so passionate.


Heh.

I haven't been much keeping up with this game. Is there any news about actual development or is it still just conceptual at this point?
