Sounds interesting but looking at the screenshots looks like a big fail already. First thing that came to mind reading the info was Deus Ex. But ya we all know how close this will get to that greatness.

This is using the Source Engine btw.

"Light RPG" makes me think it'll lean more towards shooting people, possibly with some sort of weapon upgrade RPG element.

A bit too early to tell, I guess.

Lite-RPG like Fallout: BoS?? No thanks.

what's wrong with the screenshots? are we really that jaded that they somehow make a game a failure if they dont look like gears of war or whatever? it's not like anyone ever praises Deus Ex for it's graphics ...anyways not liking the trend of throwing in some stats and calling a game an rpg ..will wait till I see more before passing judgement

Is it just me or did they rip off the "European architecture + alien stuff" art direction from Half Life 2.

It is obviously heavily influenced by hl2, and also uses the source engine, making the resemblance even more striking. The end product may deviate a little more.

Anyway, the idea of making a hl2-ish game and making the mechanics more complex doesn't sound like a bad idea to me. It's going to be hard to pull it off, though.

IT's made by a ukranian developer. The architecture is reflecting the developer's world.

Its not about the GFX its the look of the game. Just look at the main character.

Okay, complaints about graphics are one thing, but this just looks... lazy. It looks like it's still using a ton of resources directly from HL2. Seriously, my first thought was "early beta or mod".

 

[TwwIX]

Looks like your ordinary hl2 mod.
I have to agree bad hat.Quite lazy and bland.

Exactly it looks more like a mod then a retail game. The one thing thats really bothering me is the crosshair. I mean wtf isnt that a HL2 thing only?

Jesus christ a few screens and "Well this game is total ****ing fail."

Anyway I'll wait till I learn more about it and see some gameplay before I can really say anything about it.
