What's with Bethesda games and their prison fetish? :cool:
Prisons are simply one of several ways to implement blank slate pasts, a way to explain why protagonists start with the worst weapons, have to fight the weakest enemies first and are ignorant of current news.
It's the same like the "backwater farmer" in many RPGs or the "loser stuck in a dead-end job" in a lot of modern fiction.
It seems a crysis dieselpunk. It is no longer an action RPG that ...
From the dev of Arx Fatalis? Count me in :yes:
This screams Thief from every pore!
I'M PUMPED UP!
I found those walking archer towers.....very off putting frankly.....I kept scratching my head like.....WTF....you made a steampunk walker but decided to mount an archer on it?!
Other than that I like it but I'll reserve judgement till actual gameplay......
But those walking archer towers......urrgghhhh
but those are freaking... TESLA BOWS :laughter:
But a tesla gun is so much more efficient....:hmm:
"So.....you managed to create steam/magic powered walkers but decided to mount an archer on it?":doh:
Esp for crowd control......:no:
Why not a flame thrower or a tesla chain lightening generator.....:disgust:
That'd be alot cooler than an archer....
Just feels odd, I'm pretty sure the idea was us viewers were suppose to be like "dude that's bad ass, telsa bow walkers!"
but for me I couldn't take them seriously.....
Mainly cause the "hero" seemed like a very practical professional, the enemies just looked like goofy impractical peacocks.....:whistling
Still I'm gonna look forward to slapping around these peacocks
This makes me want to play Thief again. I'll be following this closely.
Interesting video...
Added a link to some more screenshots
Screenshots look pretty neat, makes me think a lot of the style of BioShock infinite at least in the environments. In fact the characters look pretty BioShock-y too. So do the weapons, I like the style but it's a bit uncanny.
My only problem with it is that it doesn't look very steampunk. Which is what I thought it was at first...
Updated with release date, looks like October 9th
Cool :)

Indeed!
Strange facial structure, more like a werewolf.
Perhaps the mask?
Either way that's pretty sweet box art. I hope they use it for console editions as well.
