It amazes me how such talented modders can never get a proper logo for their title. While the mod looks very promising, the "Day of Reckoning" text is plain and cheap.

If you knew what "Day of Reckoning" was in the H3 lore, you wouldn't be saying that. It has more canon lore than "Horn of the Abyss" even if it sounds better and original.

@excalibur

Regarding the logo, the current logo was made to follow the design philosophies of each H3 expansion. That's why it might seem plain; the original fonts for H3 expansions were like that too. We did take a bit of liberty in adding a gradient effect though. Either way, it is also subject to change and feedback is welcome.

Edit: The logo was changed from the trailer, by the way (the newer version is in the Nisse/Tomte update on page 4). Just making sure we both know what we're talking about.

I am not quite sure what exactly you understood from my post. All I meant is that the graphic was bad not that the title itself is not good.

Ah yes, thank you clarifying that as I was talking for the initial logo. The second one looks way better but I think it still has a bit of cartoonish design. I am not trying to be picky, it's just that the mod looks so good and should have the appropriate display.

The mod/expansion looks amazing and on par with HotA in terms of quality with perhaps even more lore acurate theme (Vori elves and Forge).

When I first saw the trailer it looked interesting but I was reserved because so many h3 mods are lackluster in terms of graphics quality and new creatures are either recolors or dont fit in the game at all. Your units showcase for high elfs and gnomes reasured me that this will be amazing mod like HotA in terms of quality that stays true to the game as if H3 developers made the expansion themselves.

Sorry for my bad grammar and thank you so much for this hard work! 😁

Well it will probably be a lot more active once there is an actual beta/alpha release for people to test out.

No alpha beta, just initial release like the first HotA independent version.

Given they haven't even decided on open or closed beta teaching, that seems a bit premature.

Personally, I'm just looking forward to a more comprehensive reveal. Right now there's a lot that is hidden, unclear, implicit or revealed in different places.

We saw some Courtyard and Forge units in the trailer. Are you planing to add those towns to the mod eventualy?

I know you probbably saw this question a milion times already but will it be possible to play this mod together with HotA? I thing a combo of this two mods with all the towns would probably be an ultimate H3 experience since both HotA and this mod look like official expansions of the game

HotA is a closed hack mod of original game and it is not possible to alter it or expand. And it's not an official expansion and it no way look near it.

We haven't even thought about beta testing... We're in an intense development phase even if things look in an advanced stage in the reveal trailer.

It's not hidden or unclear but everything is in a continuous improvement/wip. If you have seen the Snow Elf and Nisse reveal by Narwen you will see that a unit gets polishing as many times neccessary to make it perfect. The basic Snow Elf has been polished 15 times, the upgrade High Elf 12 times (and that was before I joined the team).

It has been mentioned in the previous posts that the Mod Design Team is involved in this mod. This should be a guarantee that DoR will be the ultimate H3 experience. Also, as it have been said by others, the trailer pretty much reveals everything that is needed to know about the mod. The exact details are in contiuous polishing.

However we're very interested to know the overall wishes & expectations of the community. You can suggest, brainstorm and discuss any idea or wish that you have for the mod. As devs it's difficult for us to know which idea will be liked by the community and which no. Just imagine/consider as if we're capable of implementing everything.

I am speaking here from the perspective of someone not on the team, and it is not an indictment on the quality of what you've shown. From our perspective, there are things hidden (because you on the team know about them, but we don't), and there are things unclear or implicit (because, by necessity, we have limited information).  
For example, so far as I can tell (that "revealed in different places" thing) it hasn't actually been stated whether the scenario shown in the teaser is part of a campaign. We can intuit that it probably is, and that it seems to be something like Gelu's perspective of The Sword of Frost... but we don't actually know. For another example, Oracle seems to be the Palace Magic hero - but what is the Might hero called?
