Liminal Games released the next update for The Memory of Eldurim on Steam.

Hello everyone!

It took a bit longer but we have our update out and ready to go. This is the first iteration of the balancing update. With it comes the groundwork for a more complete and dynamic combat system. Our goal is to give the player as much control over the type of combat he or she wants to engage in.

We have added in damage types. While they aren't doing a whole lot right now, we will be able to to use them to build a system full of weapons and armors that interact with each other in interesting ways. Eventually you'll need to think about the enemy you are facing and choose wisely on how you want to conquer.

Work continues on the interior of the archives as well as several new areas to come. In the future we are looking towards getting a basic crafting system in and a more dynamic combat system.

Let us know what you think on our forums and keep in touch with us on twitter (@liminalgames) and youtube. We also stream each week on twitch.tv/ekcell.

Changelog:

-Weapon damage balanced.
-Armor value balanced.
-Starting stats balanced.
-Health values of enemies balanced.
-Added in damage types. (Slashing, Crushing, and Piercing, UI is not displaying the type yet but types are present and interacting with armor)
-Added in new animations for 1 handed mace move set(Early versions, modifications will be made).
-Changed greatsword power attack animation.
-Dramatically decreased CPU load. (Expect large frame rate improvement).
-Added in weapon Quality and Condition (Note, you won't be able to find higher tier weapons just yet, but they will be added in very soon, additional balancing required)
-Rescaled armor effectiveness. Armor rating now more effective at reducing damage.
-Additional artwork added to the exterior of the archives.
More information.

I have never done "early access" though I do like the look of this game and it is only 20. odd dollars on steam.

What exactly does early access give me?

Is it even worth it to go check it and kill a few hours?

The last time I played the game it was in a very rough state that I decided to wait till it was at least in the beta stage to try it again. So my recommendation is to wait.

In another six months the game should have more content. I seriously hope the developer can fully finish the game as I liked the concept they pitched on kickstarter.

I was hoping for something not to get to into right now. I am way to excited for The Witcher now.
