Paul´s Art Corner

[dervis]

Thanks for the great artwork mate, beaitiful job as always. I really look forward to the release date announcement next week. Hope its not too far off.

I realise it is too early to soeak about future expansions but I had this idea… what about an expansion which introduces far east? Medieval china / india / japan style culture would make a fascinatinig addition to the east of the game world and would help introduce the game to the asian audience ;)

Я думаю, что не один такой и многие ваши фанаты купили бы <Your Banner Supporters Edition> (- создайте свой собственный баннер прямо сейчас!) 8)

I think, I am not alone and many your fans would buy <Your Banner Supporters Edition> (- сreate your own banner just now!) 8)

Hi mate, hope you guys are well. The community is really looking forward to the release in August. Also once again you did an amazing work on the new nomads faction. Great stuff! I wanted to ask if there will be new food items in the expansion? If so, could you please share some art work with us?

[Sercilius]

Hi there, last commenter! As you can see in last pick there will be some new type of grain and dried fig(i guess?)

Thanks mate, you got very keen eyes. Those indeed look like some new grain and probably dried dates or figs. Very interesting.

Hey guys, sorry for not replying earlier. Here we go:

I honestly can’t tell right now what the future holds in store for us. We have to finish this DLC right now and then see what the next steps are.

We toyed several times with the idea of a banner creator. There are a ton of issues though. Because all banners also appear as ingame items/weapons and come in various shapes and sizes it would be quite a big undertaking for us. On top of that it requires a lot of UI work and so forth. I don’t say it’s impossible, but we would rather create new content and game mechanics with the time we have at hand.

Thanks a lot! Of course there’s new food:
Brown rice, dried lamb, dates.

Cheers!

Спасибо Вам за ответ! Да, конечно, новый контент намного важнее. Но, пожалуйста, если возможно, добавьте хотя бы новые «старые» знамёна. В особенности, с лошадью и волком! Ведь щиты с их профилем великолепны 8)) Спасибо за Вашу работу!!!

Thank You for the answer! Yes, sure, new content is much more important. But, please, if it is possible, add at least new “old” banners. Especially with a horse and a wolf! After all the shields with these profiles are great 8)) Thanks for Your work!!!

Hey there Paul, great work as usual! Any spoiler on the new available recruit backgrounds? There was nothing about them in the dev diaries so far, maybe you could post some icon art at least :P

About the retinue units, will they work like nameless inventory items or will they have events and etc? Will they just be represented as the character art you already posted or will they also have their own ragdolls(for events and etc)? I also wonder if they add to the consumption of food, have their own wages and such.

Also probably not the best time to make requests, but have you looked into being able to add the dog armor to the wolf? As it is he is worse than an armored dog and cannot be upgraded, which kinda of sucks considering he is supposed to be the best canine unit in the game and hard to get(right?) :(

Now i’m hungry…great stuff Paul !

Hey Foz,
the camp followers only have specific costs and requirements to unlock, after that they have no upkeep. They do not appear on the tactical map, their role is supporting your warband outside of combat. That’s the big difference to your normal mercenaries.

I’ll check in on that, no promises though :)

Да, да и ещё раз да за волка… Я использую его исключительно как талисман моего отряда, как бы живой флаг, будто в спортивной команде, потому что его очень сложно раздобыть, а погибнет, без брони, в первом же бою. Спасибо!

Yes, yes and yes again for the wolf… I use him exclusively as a talisman of my squad, as in sport team, as if he is live banner, because it is very difficult to get him, but he will die, without armour, in his first battle. Thanks!

Hi mate hope you guys are well. I was watching Jason’s second preview video of the blazing deserts, really amazing work on the new art, especially the camp followers look great. Though one thing I noticed is unlocking new follower slots is tied to the renown. This is fine for the majority of origins but I tend to play as the trader origin where you gain renown at the half speed. Now this was originally done to off set the advantage you get in better trade prices by reducing the amount of money you get for the contracts. However now it seems there will be another unexpected debuff since it will be really difficult to unlock followers for this origin. I am not sure the trade bonus is now enough to balance out such a big disadvantage.

[PsenBattle]

Hey dervis,
the trader origin renown gain has been adjusted, as well as all other origins renown starting values.
Apart from that there are a bunch of new ambitions which will help gaining renown in other ways than fighting. For example there is one ambition to buy/sell a certain amount of trade goods.

Cheers!
