Video Blog #10
by Chris Taylor on Apr.16, 2010, under Art, Design, Interview, Programming, Self Promotion, Videos
Since I can’t get enough Dragon action, I figured I would show you the fully fleshed out fire breather in its current state! And while I’m at it, I’ll introduce you to another talented artist who’s responsible for the pre-visualization of structures units via an ancient black art known to only a few as….Grey Boxing.

That was remarkably on-topic! I love these, keep them coming. Also, Subliminal Inferno Chicken for the win.

Woohoo… The dragon looks awesome (and the chicken too)!
But please, clear the spam comments… The spam is bad, m’okay?

Perhaps an automatic report spam button?

Thanks so much again for doing these video blogs! They’re very insightful and I appreciate it lots! Have you guys thought about perhaps opening up pre-orders? It’s a good way to help fund your game and let people vote with their dollar. You might be surprised at the results!

The dragon looks a bit like a big, red lobster!
I like the building design very much though. Ancients hmm? Looks undead.
I think though that the buildings need to be scaled up to match the epic scope of the world. Seeing footmen running next to trees had a definite wow factor to it, and it would be a shame to then undermine it with warcraft-like buildings. What’s a glorious king without a massive citadel that towers above the landscape ever so menacingly?

I’m really waiting this game. Everything looks great. I’m just hoping that there’s big maps like in Supreme Commander 1.

It’s around 1:10 in the video for those wondering what’s going on with this inferno-chick. Nice and fun idea GPG-team. Oh, and please keep the vblog running as long as you can … really appreciate your time for making it, and well, making it fun.

I played with several people that have ruined relationships, marriages etc over this game and for the longest time I just didn’t get it. Guess I still don’t. Blizz is making the game much easier to be casual. Maybe this altaholic needs to stick with one toon so he doesn’t feel pressured to gear up so many freakin’ toons? That way he can get in run a heroic, do whatever dailies he needs, spend some time goofing off and then move on to the wifey. She probably just needs attention/affection and if he would dedicate a few hours EVERY evening with her she would probably let him play WoW w/e.

Haha, I frame grabbed. It took me about 10 tries, but I eventually got it!
Keep up the great work! Try and beat those Medieval 2 Total War fanboys.

hi admin, I uncovered this web page from facebook and look over a number of your various other posts. They are awesome. Pls keep them coming!!!! Sincerely,

Looks great, really anticipating this game. Just PLEASE dont get pressured into getting it done as fast as possible and leaving it not as polished, balanced, and not as good as it could be. I kinda had the same feeling with SupCom 2. Seemed like it was scaled down due to rushing. I hate it when companys rush game developers. SOOOOOO many would be awesome games have been ruined this way. (SPORE!!, C&C TT, Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts. This is just naming a few)
