Hey man how is the project going? Hopefully your still working on it.
The game looks pretty amazing even at this early stage.
I will keep an eye on this project.
LOVE THIS GAME! Big Kudos to all the devs that made this happen. I'd like to see a highly customizable character creation system be put in place in future updates, with things like facial/body creation, gender, race/species. Also maybe in the future we can take part in battles/sieges as well as lead followers/minions.
