Wolf Mittag Indie RPGs?
January 10th, 2009, 21:17
Hey all,
For years I've watched RPGWatch & RPGDot for news and info on upcoming CRPGs. It's one of those sites I visit daily, and I think the best is the info on Indie or European RPGs I normally wouldn't read about on any mainstream American gaming news site. Recently played and loved "Mount and Blade" and Eschalon: Book I as a result.
Since I've found RPGWatch/Dot so useful in recent years, I thought I'd pass on a couple of CRPGs that some here may not have heard about created by Wolf Mittag (a one-person developer in Germany). One is "Teudogar and the Alliance with Rome", and the other is his upcoming RPG "Darghul", a more-modern remake of of an older RPG he made back in the day for DOS.
The graphics are nothing modern by any means, but rather the games remind me a lot of the Ultimas 6 & 7 in terms of art style, gameplay, etc.

Yea, he's not big on press releases. Seems most of his releases are to the small group he has on the Teudogar forums, where he answers questions, took a lot of recommendations, and posts screenshots/development updates for Darghul to the fans of teudogar.

Very nice. It looks like Ultima6/7 in execution. I found it interesting where he noted the exact number of lines of code, 275,000. I wonder how much is hard coded into the game?
I need to quit coming here. Now I have 2 (3 if you think Grimoire will ever be released) RPGs to buy.

@azraelck: I'd say that you'll have plenty of time to save your money up for the purchases
