I'm a casual gamer and not so casual writer, specialising mostly in stories for FPS, be they past, modern or futuristic, but with an interest in writing for medieval themed games and mods. Give us a bell if you're ever need in need of a writer, whether it is to flesh out a plot, write a script or even just some basic editing. I'm always happy to help.

A great look into the development process for a brand new indie team. As someone who's been following you since sometime in 2010 or 2011, I'm really excited to hear that you're so close to completion!

Keep up the good work, guys!

First off, the decrease in vision isn't as bad as you'd think. The holes are pretty big, and allow for a reasonable view. While I don't know which armour they based their design off, they obviously took it from an actual historical set of armour. Here's a somewhat less restricted version: Static.robbreport.com

Secondly, yes, there is a point to restricting what the horse can see. The most common and obvious form of this is the use of blinders. These prevent the horse from seeing to the rear and, in some cases, the side, which drastically lowers the chance of them being distracted or spooked by something coming up on their side or rear.

Now, whether there's any point to limiting a horse's forward vision depend son whether you're in the camp that says that horses aren't stupid and won't run blindly into a shiny wall of spearpoints or if you're in the camp that says that warhorses were trained to ignore their fear and just flat out try to murder everyone in front of them.

Mostly, though, I think coverings over the eyes were done to increase protection and probably did have draw back sin battle, because there are plenty of 16th century horse armours without them.

This is far too beautiful to have been put together in Unity. What space magic are you using, really?

Like I said, it's purely personal taste. My tastes run towards clean lines and minimal amounts of furniture, but I know a lot of people love blocky/oversized designs.

Oh man, it all looks so great!

Well, okay, I tell a lie. I don't like the shotgun because it's so blocky, but that's just personal taste, nothing more.

The voice acting seems quite over the top (not that I mind). It's all very *dramatic*.

I would love to see the AI use cover at the very least, and covering/suppressive fire would be a great bonus.

The rail on top looks odd. Why use it instead of the picatinny rails on the rest of the rifle?

Oh god, I'd forgotten SoF2 (probably because of number 3). It really does have the best damage model.

I hope this is in .300 Blackout or .338 Spectre, for maximum suppressed ability.

Something about them looks unnatural. The textures look fantastic, though!
