Re: Hounds Of The Blade

Hey guys. What are the latest English patch?

If you go back a few pages you'll find it on Wessex tag, to my knowledge the latest translation goes up to the April update, unless I missed one for the July update. Basically everything but the ente- whatver (boars) stuff is translated.

Re: Hounds Of The Blade

How long has it been since the game was updated? I know something like this takes a lot of work to add anything substantial, but it seems like it's been ages.

Re: Hounds Of The Blade

Lately he seemed like 3-5 months update. But he's tad late on this round. Wondering he gave up/ took a break or this next update is gonna be huge think was 7-15-2015 was last update on his site

Re: Hounds Of The Blade

Had to be cynical...but it wouldn't surprise me in the least if he quit this one too.

I have a feeling that he never has any intention of finishing any of the games he does...seems like he's a tinkerer...trying to learn systems to be able to make something down the line or maybe get hired on with a gaming company or something.

Bruh, don't be like that!

Personally, I think he takes it at a more... "Urielmanx7 pace". Because he's not looking to sell it he's just kinda making stuff as it appears/appeals to him. I think the reason he stopped Nanocrisis and started HoTB is because the gun was extremely limiting and his animation skills got WAY better. It would have looked strange to have the models of the two gangsters in with the old Nanocrisis zombies and dogs. Though I do miss the dogs.

I think we'll get to see him keep adding on to it at his own pace over the next couple years still.

Re: Hounds Of The Blade

Urielmanx7 is a bad comparison because uriel is planning to sell his game and that's why he's withholding content

Re: Hounds Of The Blade

ive been following this for 4 years and i cant be as bothered as much anymore lol....

honestly instead of a story he should have just had a concept where its like nanocrisis, 1 stage 1 or 2 mobs etc than putting useless NPCs and story etc...

Re: Hounds Of The Blade

But he loves putting in like 40 pages of dialogue each screen lol. i have to agree with Vinceras, I remember a few updates ago when translating his posts, in every one it basically said "i dont know if im gonna update this anymore, this might be the last one."

The fact that he has come back and kept making stuff for the game as many times as he has now, is compelling evidence that he will continue to do it.

Re: Hounds Of The Blade

And the guy's been making games, for free, for the past decade.

Re: Hounds Of The Blade

But has he ever finished one or always gotten bored and started a new one?

He's only made two games, this one and Nanocrisis. So he has only quit once actually.

Twice. Before Nanocrisis, he made something called Eryona Action.

Re: Hounds Of The Blade

i called it years ago XD.

in all honesty i think the game won't be fnished because it's too big of a game.

he developed story with a lot of locations, and obviusly that takes a lot of time.
nanocrisis's model was simpler to develop: get an area - 2 mobs - clean it- next.
this one can't do that because he added a "guild", a bar, a blacksmith which all give quests and dialogue, you have a mission of paying your debt, but also something is going on in the planet... there is some narrative everywhere and you have places like the dojo, the slums, the embassy, etc...

looking at it from afar this game finished looks like a game you'd put 20+ hours
nanocrisis finished could take like 5.

so he must feel overwhelmed creating too big of a plot/universe while also having to model animate and program whatever he planned for the game.

it's like violated heroine all over again, i anticipate more from that game ever being finished than the new star wars trilogy.

They have more content than most finished games, so who cares

Already predicting the end of days? I do agree his worldbuilding has actually made this quite a sizeable game, and there are a lot of plot threads that remain unresolved (except the gang story). It would be possible to finish the game, yes, even for a solo creator, but he probably needs to put a lot of work in over two years, and he could wrap it up adequately. Or, he could rush it for one year and leave it imperfect, but get it mostly done.

Will that happen? Will he finish it? Well, I hope so, and wish him all the best.

Since the topic brought up was not the quality of his games, how he does them for free, or any of that, just if he was going to continue THIS game, I'd say everyone cares. Unless you want to turn this into a "you dont appreciate XXX argument" which it seems you do but that wasn't what was being discussed.

Re: Hounds Of The Blade

What other games are similar to Hounds of the Blade with decent graphic/visual? Most of hentai games I found online have bad visual/graphic.

I'm not talking about games like Sexy Beach with huge Gigabyte, just small games such as Hounds of the Blade and the likes.

You do know that HotB is over 1GB, right?

THIS will always be my kryptonite. Hound of the Blade is too big for me to download. (Especially due to where it's being downloaded)

Makes me question why the developer doesn't separate the content in packs...
Would have made downloading easier.
