ALMOST FORGOT

THE FIRST PERSON ASPECT WAS PURE GENIOUS-FIRST PERSON HYBRID RPG LIKE THIS IS AWESOME! I WAS IMMEDIATELY DRAWN INTO THE GAME,. AND I JUST WANTED TO KEEP PLAYING! MY HEARTBEAT WAS RACING WHEN BEING CHASED BY GHOULS AND THEIR BARKING! BRAVO! BRAVO! THANK YOU FOR THE GREAT INTERTAINMENT.

The developers could approach a sequel the same way star wars did-a retrospective approach, maybe before the 7th Dragon and the evil had their match. A place of fabled lands and before the was a thing called spectrum in light...a time when all was one, but things where starting to go south. Something along those parameters...a time when Zana was a beautiful human woman and all creatures had a innocent existance.

AMEN!

I believe Arkane is currently busy working on their new "The Crossing".

Not that Ubi couldn't hire someone else. But it seems unlikely anyway.

Noooo!
Nobody else can make DM2.
Better not make it at all and give the SDK than put someone else to make it.

I really want at least a game like Dark Messiah. They could just make a new one with the gameplay and stuff from Dark Messiah, but if they want to earn some money on the game, they better make it Free roam, that's how they earn money if you ask me, cause I think a lot of people want a game where they can do anything they want. But don't forget an interesting storyline.

Make the game less linear, add a new talent tree; Demonolgy.
Which lets you take control of demons, gain demonic strength I'unno crap like that.

Support the game for longer.

DM is the best game i have ever played. But there is so many of these ideas i have in my mind for making it better, so I'll tell you the main ones.
Well, the 1st thing is, that you should be able to use spells that affects a vast area, and so the player could see the huge amount of energy unleashed from the caster, like big explosions, lifting huge objects with telechinesis etc. (Maybe it could be similar to the use of the Force in Star Wars: The Force Unleashed.)
2nd, it would be very good if there were more spells, weapons and armors. (Well, this also depends on the length of the game.)
For now, I wouldn't like to make this message too long, so If you like my ideas, tell me
I hope you do like my ideas

I think it would be awesome if they made Dark Messiah free roam! I think they would earn more money on it and it would be longer. I also think they should make it like battlefield: bad company so you can destroy castles if you were in a war, like if you had control over a balista or a catapult, so you could shoot the at the castle and watch parts fall off. Now that would be awesome!

this is a bit off-topic.
People say Ubisoft only care for money, but they made Grey's anatomy... I thionk they could earn a lot of money on making a Dark Messiah 2, if they just polished it a bit more and maybe it free roam, like I've said 2 times already, guess you're getting tired of listening to me say that

Valve and arkane studios is working on The crossing now, so maybe after that they'll start making dark messiah 2 together. That would be

Sadly the only games with "eternal support" developed with Source engine are those made by Valve alone or the mods developed by folks for free.

Developers paid for their "work" (remember: they simply modded HL2) once they get their money, they simply disappear, just to come back with another "project" few time later.
It has happened with Vampire then DM, 2 interesting games now dead.

Free modders out there keep in touch with the engine updates and keep their mod updated as well.
Modders keep in touch with players too.
Have a look at Arkane forum and you'll have a glimpse for The Crossing's future support or what they think about DM2...

For what we've seen so far, let's hope they'll wait for Windows7 before launching any "game"

Oblivion was a crap game, I played Arx Fatlais and I was blown away, I played Oblivion and I counted the flaws and gave up after a day.


However Dark messiah2 being a freeform game is not a bad idea.

Bethesda never made a freeform game first...the first freeform game was Utima, then came The elder crap Arena that copied Utima, Arx Fatlais was formed off of Utima underworld, then came Dark messiah based on the success of Arx Fatalis.

They made DM seem like AF by allowing you to do what you want in the enviroment.

Now if DM was a free roamer game, unlike Oblivion, we'll probably be able to climb trees, set houses and grass on fire and jump from roof to roof like an assassin.

You'll be able to do more in the world and not wander around exploring caves that take the same shape as the last like they do in oblivion.

We'll be able to interact with are enviroment, probably build blockades on roads and wait to ambush a group of elder fools who are traders.

Anyway I hope for Arx Fatalis 2 more than DM2, if there was a AF2 it'll be cool to explore the outside world, judging by the books and what you saw through the telescope there would only be snow.

I accutully got outside through that gate near the Human outpost, I had the key, but opening it killed you, so I summoned a zombie behind it, hit it and it opened the door and I killed it and went into the darkness to disscover a path leading into more darkness, I headed into it and soon I was above the cave and was walking ontop of an invisible roof(I could see the cave ground from below)so it did not get me to the outside world..but it did get me to develepor space the place you would see if you design the world.

I hope Arx Fatalis II does come out...it'll be awesome and probably get more game of the year awards than the first one.

Nobody suggests anything like this, here?

I think most of what i would want has alrdy been said. Definatly would want an extended list of magics in game and keeping a second form. Also would suggest either the removal of the multiple copies of enchanted weapons, armor, etc. To replace this I would recommend either making more unique items, or making some kind of shop. More classes of weapons would also be nice, such as maces, axes, or 2 handed weps. Free form could work but i think a linear story with multiple approaches would work better for this game.

Stick with the system you have, same weapons and spells but add just one extra dimension to everything: combine movement with your attacks and blocks for more effectiveness, and for magic add a "magical energy vibration meter" that you can time casting with to create various effects. Another level added to the skill tree wouldn't hurt, but I liked the parred down, well thought out quality.
Use the same level designers, they did an outstanding job I thought. The textures too were gorgeous, making me stop and stare at tapestries and windows many times. When you have a game concept that your studio is energized about, they will go the extra mile for it.
Never offer the same magical weapon more than once...it ****ed me off that I worked hard to get the Master Thief Outfit on one level, only to find it in a chest in the next level.

I'd see a linear campaign, the game is heavily designed around puzzles and that's hard to do with a freestyle game.

if UBI ever get around to DM2, I'd like to see some Cameo from HOMM. Nothing can make player feel important like fighting alongside a world renowned hero even for a short period of time. Fighting beside Agrael would just be that awesome to long time HOMM fans.

Oh btw, could any possible squeal focus on the remaining factions ? we have seen heaven, infernal, necropolis and stronghold units. It'd be cool to visit other factions on foot IMO.

It'd be nice to see more spell combos - freeze and telekinesis was awesome. Perhaps one could cast a lighting bolt on a fire trap to turn it into a electric trap or a freeze on it to create an ice trap

Well i dont want a game BEFORE sareth was born! Sareth is a cool person and i want Xana/Leanna there to maybe some new characters and stuff o.0 oh hell let us start in a castle where everything is going berserk

Anyhow Sareth Xana/Leanna SHOULD be in DM2! or else im going to *facepalm* T_T. i shall therefore post more ideas
*ideas incoming Loading XP*
