Gamedec - Aspects and Professions

Anshar Studios has posted two short teasers in their Gamedec Mechanics Onboarding series, on "aspects" and professions.

Welcome to the pre-release Gamedec Mechanics Onboarding!

In this series, we will explain the basic mechanics in Gamedec, the upcoming isometric, cyberpunk RPG.

Next in line are aspects - think of them as a virtual currency used to buy professions. You can get them by interacting with the environment and talking to many NPCs.

It's time for Professions - you can unlock them using various aspects collected through gameplay. They give you even more options to interact with the environment and NPCs. They define who you really are.

Eh? I hadn't seen that mentioned before. I was already skeptical due to the absence of a combat system. The launch price of $30 is starting to seem a little high.

This is a game I'm going to look at a couple of hours of let's play before thinking of buying.

10h gameplay is just an average guess. We prepared a demo for backers and predicted it should take 45 minutes to finish, but the average playthrough took way longer than that. Some of the streamers tend to lick all of the walls and click on everything they need to end the demo after 2-3 hours which is basically three times longer than we expected. From what we know, reviewers spend a lot more time with the game than the 10 hours we predicted.

If I understand correctly, it's the time for one run through the game, but there is enough replay value to play it multiple times and get different experiences (even though the unfolding is probably not a surprise the 2nd time).

I'll wait for reviews on a French site or something like that, to know if it's fine playing with a non-qwerty keyboard (my usual gripe ), since I had this issue during the demo. I must be one of the rare specimen left who doesn't like to click on everything with a mouse and keeps his hands on the keyboard.

What was the issue? I can pass it to our team

This game intrigues me. I am most certainly going to pick it up at some point.
