Turn Based Lovers - On The Radar: August 2020

The Turn Based Lovers listed for us promising upcoming turn-based RPGs for August:

On The Radar - August 2020

• The Battle of Polytopia - 4th August
• Approaching Infinity - 7th august
• Company of Crime - 8th August
• Popup Dungeon - 12th August
• The Dungeon of Naheulbeuk: The Amulet of Chaos - 27th August
• Wasteland 3 - 28th August
• Immortal Realms: Vampire Wars - 28th August
• Battle Barn: Tactics - August
• Slimesphere - August
• Baldur's Gate III - August (E.A.)

More information.

Immortal Realms: Vampire Realms looks interesting. I don't remember seeing anything on it before, though perhaps I overlooked a newsbit. Its an interesting choice of setting for a strategy game.

Currently I'm pretty well supplied with Othercide and Fae Tactics, also considering to do a complete Tactics Ogre again playthrough again (fifth one!) when I finish. From that list, everything that releases on August 27th/28th seems worth a shot. Add to that Pathfinder Kingmaker turn-based mode (aka, playable mode) and the ramp up towards BG3 release, after a mostly dull first half of the year, things seem to be looking up again.

Baldur's Gate III - August (E.A.)

What?

That's what they were saying a few weeks ago, unless something's changed.

To be more precise: “August (maybe?)”

I've been tracking this and watched a couple lengthy playthroughs of it and it looks really good. Graphics and setting look great, battles look interesting and the over world mechanics seem good too.

When I saw the first part of the title of this thread I did a 'double take'!! Turn Based Lovers set my mind whirling!!

Wasteland III all I care about nuff said.

As for BG3 EA official twitter posts point to a delay. Just not announced yet.

Really doesn't matter for me as I don't play Early Access games much.

Company of Crime - I wrote to the developers their game looks very tasty!
The Dungeon of Naheulbeuk: The Amulet of Chaos - Amazing character voices!!! Looks interesting.
Immortal Realms: Vampire Wars - didn't like the art design and the UI too much, but combat might be maybe worth to check out.

The rest is not even worth mentioning..

Quite a few decent offerings here, if the luster of Everquest and classic games fades, I'll have to try some new ones.

Ah, ok. Misstook it for expected arrival or something.
Still I didn't know that EA will be so soon.

They were careful to say that it'd be August if all went well, but it wasn't a firm mark-it-in-your-calendar date.

At this point, I'm pretty sure it'll be September or later. I honestly wish there wasn't EA at all, but that's old news coming from me.

Sometimes I find myself wondering if they really need it (EA phase).
