About This Game The Age of Decadence, our first but hopefully not the last RPG, is now available. If you've been following it or playing it in Early Access, you know what to expect. If you've just discovered it, "stay awhile and listen". The most commonly asked question is:What Kind of Game Is It?It’s a very different game than anything you’ve ever played. I’m sure you’ve noticed that the RPG genre hasn’t really been explored yet and most RPGs follow the formula that didn’t change in 20 years. While there were always games that strayed off the beaten path – Darklands, Planescape: Torment, King of Dragon Pass – such games were the exceptions that only reinforced the rule. The Age of Decadence is an experiment, an attempt to explore a different direction, taking you back to the PnP roots of the genre. It doesn’t mean that the game is awesome. In fact, there is a good chance that you won’t like it, precisely because we took too many liberties with the established design. So What Sets The Age of Decadence Apart From Other Games?1. The SetupTraditionally, many fantasy RPGs are about killing things, clearing up dungeons, and being a hero. There is nothing wrong with mindless fun and wish fulfillment, but we want to offer you something different. To quote Tom Chick (Quarter to Three's game critic):"But Age of Decadence wants nothing to do with kobolds, just as it wants nothing to do with Doo-dads of Unimaginable Power. The overarching idea is a crumbling society divided among three noble Houses, each fumbling around in its own version of darkness to comprehend what destroyed the world. That’s the central mystery. It plays out like noir in that you are the detective, piecing together what really happened from differing accounts, all vividly written with clear voices and efficient prose. And like a detective in a noir yarn, you can’t help but become part of the central mystery, effecting an outcome you might not have intended."The Age of Decadence is not a game about killing monsters or exploring mystical lands, but rather, surviving amid the greed and brutality of your fellow humans and carving out a name for yourself. Good and bad are purely relative. It’s a world of scheming and backstabbing in which your words and actions have the potential to forge alliances and sow discord, and your path is never certain.You get to play with seven different factions: three Noble Houses and four 'professional' guilds: merchants, assassins, thieves, and the army, all fighting for power or influence; over 100 named characters, over 750 ‘generic’ characters with unique IDs taking part in violent take-overs, assassinations, and power grabs, and over 600,000 words of dialogue: a well-developed and thought through world, believable characters, realistic motivations, but no elves, dwarves, magic, and wizards in fashionable, pointy hats.2. Combat difficultyAnother design aspect worth mentioning is combat difficulty. It’s a hard game. Combat difficulty is integrated into the setting. You can’t say that the world is harsh and unforgiving and then let the player kill everyone who looks at him or her funny. The game has to be hard, dying should be easy, and you should have reasons to pick your fights.You aren’t a powerful hero who can defeat anyone and save the world and it is the difficulty that reinforces this notion. Make the game easier and we’re back to the powerful hero setup. So unless you’re a natural born killer, watch what you say and think before you act or you’ll end up dead before you can blink.3. Choices & ConsequencesChoices are what the game is all about - crafting your own narrative via a variety of choices that alter the story, playing field, and your options down the road. From multiple quest solutions to branching questlines you'll have plenty decisions to make and consequences of said decisions to deal with, which is what makes the game incredibly replayable.Starting the game as a mercenary and joining the Imperial Guards will give a completely different experience, different quests, different content and points of view than, say, playing the game as a merchant (less buying low and selling high, more scheming and plotting to gain advantages for the guild), a praetor serving a Noble House, or an assassin.The questlines are interwoven, forming a large, overarching story, so playing the game only once will be like witnessing events from a single perspective, which is limited by default. You will have to play the game several times to better understand what’s going on, piece everything together, and see the full effect of the choices you make.The Big Question: Should You Buy The Game?Try before you buy. Even if everything I said sounds exactly like your kind of game, try the demo first. That’s what it’s there for. It gives you access to the first Chapter, consisting of 3 locations and about 30 quests split between mutually exclusive questlines and decisions. 6d5b4406ea Title: The Age of DecadenceGenre: Indie, RPGDeveloper:Iron Tower StudioPublisher:Iron Tower StudioRelease Date: 14 Oct, 2015 The Age Of Decadence Free Download [key Serial] the age of decadence desperate times. age of decadence ziggurat. age of decadence kill the god. age of decadence full story. the age of decadence agathoth. age of decadence free download full version. the age of decadence zamedi. age of decadence unique dagger. the age of decadence gamespot. the age of decadence combat. age of decadence kill meru. the age of decadence astrolabe. the age of decadence pc game. the age of decadence simon heffer. the age of decadence oil injector. age of decadence xbox one. the age of decadence old facility. the age of decadence 2. the age of decadence download. the age of decadence monastery. the age of decadence elias. age of decadence clean up the slums. the age of decadence metacritic. the age of decadence library of saross. age of decadence village. age of decadence quest guide. the age of decadence magic. age of decadence vs cs. the age of decadence wine. age of decadence 1.6. age of decadence vignette. the age of decadence demo. the age of decadence divine spear. the age of decadence ekşi. the age of decadence heffer. age of decadence do the right thing. the age of decadence arena. the age of decadence character creation. the age of decadence armor penalty. the age of decadence recensione. the age of decadence hector. age of decadence nexus. age of decadence increase stats. age of decadence eye implant. the age of decadence waterstones. age of decadence final boss. the age of decadence praetor build. the age of decadence basileios location. the age of decadence update. age of decadence the loose ends. the age of decadence gameplay español. age of decadence ost. the age of decadence patch fr. age of decadence the first sword. age of decadence the raiders. the age of decadence save editor. the age of decadence gog torrent. the age of decadence deutsch. the age of decadence kody. age of decadence kickstarter. age of decadence 2h spear. the age of decadence recenzja. the age of decadence türkçe yama. the age of decadence forum. age of decadence dual wield. age of decadence kingmaker. the age of decadence domitius ulpius. age of decadence vs underrail. age of decadence the youth. the age of decadence empire. age of decadence imperial guard walkthrough. the age of decadence varro. the age of decadence power armor. age of decadence vardanis. age of decadence the rightful owner. the age of decadence assassin build. age of decadence qantari. the age of decadence wikipedia
