Whee, I got into the closed beta for Dawntide.
It might not look that fantastic, but it’s made by some of the former Shards of Dalaya developers, and they’ve proved that they have a good hand balancing stuff and creating solid gameplay.
I’m looking forward to having a try, especially because they’re going a slightly different route with skills and all.
Update: In case you’re wondering if it’s okay to talk about the Dawntide beta, the devs have a down-to-earth, refreshing opinion here as well:
You may be wondering where the NDA that comes with most beta tests is. There isn’t one, because fundamentally we want people to talk about Dawntide and show things off, and we need to know when something is broken. If people find something wrong with the game, they’re going to tell other people it’s a bad game regardless of any NDA. Feel free to take and post screenshots and discuss the game with your friends.
Nice.
