🤔 NEW HERE? 🤔
Hi! My name is Christopher Odd, and I’ve been playing video games on the internet for a few years. I really enjoy a variety of games but generally lean towards games with a unique and engaging story (Bioshock, The Witcher, Cyberpunk 2077, The Last of Us, etc), strategy/roguelike games (XCOM 2 War of the Chosen, Darkest Dungeon, etc), and RPGs (Dark Souls, Elden Ring, Dragon Age, etc). Of course, I am always looking for great indie games, too!

The art director of this game needs a hug and well done.

[@Avranis]

Agreed! The art style is gorgeous. I love all the cards you have also have unique designs. Honestly everything looks amazing.

[@user-pc5qj2ix2c]

It deserves the title "art" I'm a bit in awe of the graphical style.

[@NeoN-PeoN]

I'm sure they'd be happier with a raise.

[@tokendedguy]

Sweet Jesus, yes

[@iain_nakada]

Very reminiscent of Jim Fitzpatrick. He does beautiful celtic-inspired art.

[@tashabrown1795]

The art style in Art Nouveau, but instead of nature, they've taken a very military design. Its amazing.

[@Tazdingo01]

Thank you for the information.

[@grilledflatbread4692]

looks like banner saga

[@irish_ayes]

I love grogeous things.

[@ripsbusk5]

Grognak approves

[@Grogeous_Maximus]

All grognards approve

[@ChristopherOdd]

When I read your comment yesterday I was like, yea man, agreed. Only to realize today (two days after the video is up) my grave error 😂

[@mojojomoo]

The art is SOOOO good in this game. Just wow.

[@songsofsilencegame]

Thank you!

[@arazriel]

The art is very similar to Mucha's work. It's called Art Nouveau (La Sagrada Familia) 1890s-1910s. Alphonse Mucha was a very famous and renowned Czech artist of the style. It's a more "curvy" sytle and later Art Deco sort of evolved of it (Chrysler Building, Bioshock) 1920s-30s.

[@Tazdingo01]

Thank you.

[@MadPutz]

Milo Manara is a more recent example of the style if you're a fan - fair warning some of his work is erotic.

[@raider363]

So I looked it up since I'm also familiar with Kate Reading (the va for Mistborn) and this voice actor is actually Ashleigh Haddad.

[@kela6797]

OMG so many good games lately played by you. I know you can't make a series of all but please consider making full series of the games you enjoyed:)

[@KcaamKarma]

The female voice actor in the start and as Lorelai is: Ashleigh Haddad (from game developer diary nb. 7)

[@starjadiancloneinvestigato1772]

is that a name we should know? what are her major roles?

[@mic91ael]

@@starjadiancloneinvestigato1772 Corporal Hunslet (Aliens: Dark Descent)

[@songsofsilencegame]

Thanks for sharing! We love the voice acting she did for our game!

[@killanightpoint]

I thought that voice is the same as the one that covers Ada Wong. But I don't even know who covers her voice haha...

[@SSoul0]

The artist that this style is probably based is is Alphonse Mucha. he has some FANTASTIC pieces.

[@Da__goat]

Honestly I really like the art style here and the script and environment reinforce it. They have made a good selection of materials that work together.

[@jakekeltoncrafts]

Another Kate Reading fan! Kate and Michael Kramer are my two favorite audiobook readers thanks to Sanderson. Hope you enjoy Mistborn! The first era trilogy is still some of my favorite work by Sanderson.

[@TheMordgan]

This game's art is amazing. Wow. Wishlisted it.

[@rebeccac7125]

This game looks neat! Thanks for playing 💜

[@magnusio5292]

I get a Heroes of Might and Magic vibe, and I LOVE IT!

[@TAKOssrb]

oh i am not the only one think like that huh..

[@TcpIpNut]

That's beautiful art. The Mistborn and Stormlight series by Sanderson are awesome. I've enjoyed them via Audible.

[@S23K]

I’d say the genre would be “Heroes of Might and Magic -like” if anything

[@ronnymo501]

Dominions or MoM more like it. With art like the Witcher game…

[@Darkmagician923]

Thanks for sharing the game, but as feedback learn a bit of strategy! A unit with Global buff is worth a lot while it is not strong by itself, because that +2 is multiplied by 6 (a total of +12 attack around the table). Also, that big fight easily won happened because the knights dashed into the slow backline while their big guy was into your backline - using the charging card made all slow enemy units useless while your entire force was focused on the big guy in the middle. If this game has multiple playable factions and custom maps, it has potential to be as big as Heroes, might and magic, but with different player base.

[@AVCadar]

The game’s art style is inspired from artists such as Alphonse Mucha, from the Art Nouveau movement. And the art is indeed GROGEOUS! 😁

[@goodwrittance7579]

It's called art nouveau. Very well realised, too.

[@longo9595]

The male narrator sounds like Peter Marinker, the voice actor of Kaathe/Frampt from Dark Souls 1

[@oliver_twistor]

Gorgeous art and great voice acting. I wish there will be options to make the friends and foes more distinct. As it is now, it's very hard to distinguish who's friend and who's foe in the battles.

[@zenithquasar9623]

Art of this game is so great!

[@burjisazrael4164]

Looks very promising. Thanks for the introduction.

[@b.heaven9234]

Art looks very gorgeous, but it somewhat blends too much with the UI that it somehow a detriment. Take that Retreat card, or the stats on the 5 minute mark. Everything look highly stylized that I was not able to immediately grasp the numeric information at a glance. It would be nice if they can solve this somehow without compromising how beautiful things look.

[@yunarose84]

Just started watching, already digging the German names

[@Corusame]

How have I just discovered this game? the art style looks fantastic. Definitely keeping an eye on this one

[@peterbos5059]

The male narrator also narrated Anno 1404

[@phero2]

I've seen this before, one of the most beautiful games I ever saw. Had performance issues though.

[@gentleshark972]

The style has a lot in common with the art nouveau movement. Prooably inspired heavily by it. That and a lot of other contemporary artists.

[@amca68]

Looks like it will be a lot of fun.

[@DrSmurrie]

Looks like exploring the map in this does pay off pretty well. I have a feeling you could've really exploited Pip the Adventurer if he indeed buffed cavalry by 2 power as an artifact unit. Perhaps it was a in reserve thing or you accidently didn't up dragging from garrison to your army when there was space in the unit.

[@catbert7]

Brandon Sanderson is the GOAT

[@termopylae5506]

Finally. A game i might actually buy!

[@legiongames4188]

This has so much promise.

[@shesh2265]

probably going to buy this game just off of the first impressions Im having from this video

[@Sitz_Krieg]

OMG the ANNO 1404 Narrator!!!

[@Chronomatrix]

omg the artstyle is soooo good!

[@TomasCyr]

Wishlisted

[@MonkeyBalor]

Art reminds me a lot of Banner Saga. Looks wonderful.

[@T-Dog8778]

This game appears to play like the App Game Mini Warriors. Sick

[@khurramwadiwalla4922]

I will totally forget to play the game while admiring the artwork. Wish there were DnD games with this kind of artwork.

[@ericjeker]

Played the demo and it was really a great time. The art is amazing. Top of wishlist game.

[@danisob3633]

oh god stormlight archive is my fav series. u know what to do next HEHE

[@Jeff55369]

This seems kind of similar to what the magic the gathering rts hybrid was trying to do, but this seems much more smoothly implemented.

[@Ieson75]

Looks interesting.

[@Malentar]

this looks amazing, like a more detailed banner saga vibe, I'll pick up a acoy

[@florin-andreirusu6424]

Mistborn IS AWESOME!

[@Alexandragon1]

Thx for the video!

[@TehSuperbeast]

grogeous my dude

[@Batman-bh6vw]

Grogeous Odd caught in 4K

[@starjadiancloneinvestigato1772]

and the game looks good too

[@milamberpuc7059]

Lovely art style indeed also great voice acting 🎭 😊

[@photonsword]

I just finished the mistborn books, they are great!

[@blazepond5518]

the art reminds me of the boardgame Inis, really nice

[@ChristopherOdd]

YES

[@e.s.p4918]

Hey would love to see another Xcom 2 modded series, just finished the 2022 playlist, thought it was great

[@valk7310]

the game is now on kickstarter :)

[@The_Desert_Tiger]

Well this has heroes of might and magic vibes.

[@bas_6983]

Maybe the lance of tannavs (spelling?) should be equipped in the reserves slot, as it looks like a loot wagon (somewhat)

[@MetrosFinest]

This is dope.. I like it....💯

[@legomojo]

This looks really cool. I wonder if it’ll come to consoles? Also, “Jager” is pronounced, I assume, “yay-gurr” from the German “jäger” and ”jaeger.” Edit: oh it IS on console. Awesome.

[@grilledflatbread4692]

You had me at kingdom management

[@WolchBot]

Voice actor reminded me of Ashley Burch

[@Cosper79]

How is it a guy that plays games with half a million subscribers and I've never heard of him. That's just crazy.

[@ChristopherOdd]

hi

[@shawnreed343]

Y'know, to me, I'm pretty sure the voice actress is Ingrid in Fire Emblem: Three Houses.

[@dougcookie3426]

Duddddde look at this game....amazing

[@CPT_Nelson]

I'm halfway through the video but! Hero level cap is 3? That seems pretty low unless there's a mechanic that I have not seen yet.

[@Slvrbuu]

You know, the auto-battler style would actually be well suited for a 'god game'. Wherein you're not actually in direct command, but as a god you can bless and curse. Maybe summon mythic units. Kind of an idea that just crossed my mind. I really want a good god game. :P

[@dakotarandall7580]

Unrelated, but mentioning Sanderson means I MUST comment. Have you read or listened to Stormlight?

[@tomkempf8460]

Looks like a more casual, more polished, Dominion 6

[@amarjamakovic1297]

The narrator is the same guy as in Knights of Honor.

[@QuotidianStupidity]

Could be wrong, but the male narrator sounds a lot like the one from Witcher 3

[@yunchunsa]

Looks promising

[@madarchmage1151]

I like this. Thank you

[@akenon5901]

The 2D art is a true delight, the cloud effect however makes me sad..

[@Stand_By_For_Mind_Control]

Well color me intrigued this game looks interesting.

[@Timlagor]

Unwinnable battles suck. Only acceptable if it matters how much/fast you lose.

[@sweetcherypi1847]

Could that artifact be put in your Reserves?

[@eXistenZ15]

The male voice over is the same one as the campaign for Anno 1404 I think

[@duaneclark7108]

Can you slow down the battle speed in the game?

[@makgreaterthenyou]

Thats the Anno 1404 narrator right?

[@dallaswarren6554]

Cortana? For voice actress?

[@Zifferony]

The voice actor sounds a bit like it could be the person who did Cortana in the original HALO. I forget her name.🤔

[@irubberyouglueonethousand5384]

Wish you could play this on Mac or Xbox

[@jackal327]

Prettier hero hour

[@thanatosdriver1938]

You had me at auto battling, but I hope it doesn't disappoint on that front because it's the only one I care about

[@amol1608]

isn't the narrator the guy from Anno series?

[@marcksvel]

The silence, huh?🌚

[@xplodrox]

Looks fun but lacks of details, like blood decals, permanent bodies and more battlefield details, the animations and units desing are nice. But, overall unpolished.

[@mhjmstultiens]

JRPG presentation?

[@Lukuigi]

Sounds like the VA from control

[@shujinzo]

Is it cortana?

[@BeefySleet073]

She sounds like Cortana

[@heyskra]

Bob Hope?

[@nameisbad]

the whole teleport your whole army into one spot shit is dumb to me, immersion breaking even.

[@EDHDplaygame]

like mini total war eh...

[@exe-h8x]

thos voices are the same at anno 1800

[@xinimon]

The auto battle seems to easy, are there more difficult missions? You are claiming towns like nobody's business

[@anggaihzap]

That’s a long title

[@jafsterlordbib]

Grogeous?

[@King.Zero.Mission]

I'd play it on a mobile or a tablet, but I'll pass on pc. Plus I hate card games for some reason so it's a nope for me. XD I tried to take (Grogeous) from you Odd and KZbin comment found out a misspelling. Gorgeous though however, I tend to avoid all games that mention gods or holy beings. I don't wanna be dammed, with all due respect.

[@LotusBlade-e6v]

So this is worse version of free to play Art of Conquest without actual unit control during fights that looks like Heroes of Annihilated Empires but without proper city building. Okay...

[@nullpexception]

Not for me.
