Hi people!

So yeah, we all sin from time to time with something else than a sim...

So I bring this to you: a new promising ARPG is well underway from the designer of Titan Quest. Its name is Grim Dawn and right now it needs a helping hand. A kickstarter is already progressing steady and if you find the features of this upcoming ARPG to your liking, your contribution will surely be welcomed:

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/crateentertainment/grim-dawn


Some features as ripped from the kickstarter project page:

Grim Dawn will:

* Be DRM free!
* Include robust modding tools so you can create your own worlds!
* Be faster-paced, with much more satisfying enemy hit reactions and deaths.
* Allow you to fight house-to-house as you lay waste to enemies and the former owner’s furniture in the process. Break through walls to open up new areas of exploration!
* Feature a more open-world design with randomized elements that will greatly enhance replay-ability. Each play-through will be unique with "set-piece" spawners that can turn a patch of wilderness into different types of enemy camps, a traveling merchant caravan, etc, each with their own unique art.
* We don’t control where you go; you do! If you don't want to follow the main story, you aren't forced to. Non-linear progression allows you to unlock new areas by repairing bridges, defeating enemy blockades, etc, as soon as you have the resources and power to do it. Race ahead into higher-level areas and get pwned, we'll warn you but we're not going to stop you!
* Let you combine any two of five distinct skill classes, each with multiple skill trees in which to specialize. Spend money to reclaim skill points if you’re unhappy with your build.
* Have a refined loot system that drops far less junk-items, produces more uber randomized gear and ensures more consistent rewards from hero and boss monsters.
* Immerse you in a gritty, dangerous, Victorian era fantasy world where humankind has been pushed to the brink of extinction by warring otherworldly powers.
* Give players meaningful quest choices and the ability to visually change the starting town as they help to rebuild and secure the future survival of humanity.
* Let you ally with NPC factions to earn rewards and unlock new quest lines. Be wary though, aiding one group can make another your enemy!
* Join up with friends in coop-multiplayer through online match-making or play over LAN and experience the full game together.
* And so much more…


Regards!

Sounds good. At last a non-turn based, non-bore-fest game on kickstarter! smile

Titan Quest was great and this is looking good too.
