I have to say I've missed this one in our earlier reporting. Looks interesting.

Gametrailers has a trailer. Let's just say that "visually stunning" is really pushing it.

Thanks--yes definitely looks dated visually, even a bit amateurish. But it may be the kind of thing you can absorb if the gameplay is good. I do like the idea of the female protagonist. Have to see how it shapes up.

Combat looks a little bit childish with that strange purple effect when someone is hit by a sword.

But beside that, it looks great. I’m just somewhat afraid of what sort of gameplay this game might offer and the emphasis seems to be strongly on battles. I hope it’s not too «Prince of Persia»-like.

I strongly believe that this "childish" style is well intended.

Remember the makers of Venetica are famous for their Ankh adventures !

To me, this ist just the unique visual style of Deck 13.
