Dark Shadows - Army of Evil

Dark Shadows - Army of Evil

Category / Kategorie: Fantasy - First Person Slasher
Language / Sprache: English / Deutsch

>>>>> September 1362:
An army of evil, named "Dark Shadows", have been ravaging the country like a plague of locusts for over a year and are frightening the people with their scary get-up.
Most people still think they are monsters. But they are only in disguise.

While you were away these monsters stormed the castle. A woman named Katerina has been kidnapped.
It is not just any woman. You are in love with her. They've also taken all the gold. All the taxes. And weapons!

You are the only one who can help Katarina.
You must hurry and follow them before they do something to her.

>>>> September 1362:
Eine Armee des B�sen, die sich "Dark Shadows", die dunklen Schatten, nennt, zieht seit geraumer Zeit durchs Land
und ver�ngstigt das Volk mit ihren furchteinl�ssenden Gew�ndern. Sie haben sich als Monster verkleidet und
pl�ndern das Land. Alles was sich ihnen in den Weg stellt, wird beseitigt oder vertrieben.

W�hrend man selbst gerade nicht anwesend war, wurde die Burg gest�rmt und eine Frau namens Katharina entf�hrt.
Es ist nicht irgendeine Frau. Es ist die Frau, in die Ihr verliebt seit.

Da niemand mehr �brig ist, um ihr zu helfen, seit Ihr die letzte Chance Katharina zu befreien.
Ihr m�sst euch deshalb auf einen langen blutigen Marsch durchs Land machen.

Something like this I could see running a minimum of 500 mb and going up to almost a full gig of ram minimum. in fact looking at his sys reqs, it really does seem kinda contradictory

About the game, judging from the screenshots, I really think that it still can be optimize so it wont be so hardware demanding. I mean, I know that 3DGS is not a fast engine, but it seem that you didn't use any fancy shader that might request Shader Model 3.0 or 4.0(or at least I missed some screen shots showing it)

If I remember correctly, the movement wasn't perfect yet last time you showed something? Have you worked on it? Cause the best visuals can get ruined by choppy gameplay. ~"I never let school interfere with my education"~ -Mark Twain
