Man, I can't remember the last time that I created a new topic.

Anyway, I'm not sure if this is in-line with the forum rules (don't worry, it is Eberron-related), but I just wanted to let you know that the RTS/RPG hybrid PC game "Dragonshard" has a single-player demo out now. For those of you that don't know, the game is based in the Eberron setting, so check it out if you want.

You can find it here, no registration or anything required:

Tried it out. Glad they finally did the single player demo release. I've already enjoyed the multi-player version many times. I really like how it's setup. The dialogoue was a bit choppy though. The female pally is fine, the dwarf oracle is hohkey, the theif is typical and warforged is fine. It's mostly the theif's interaction with the others that gets stupid.

I'm not really happy with their representation of a sentient PC warforged though, he looks nothing like the usual kind. The titanforge too was a bit odd at first. I thought it was some turtle like thing at first with a shell, but upon zoom in inspection it just hunches over...a lot.

However, the major point, gameplay, is great. I'm pretty happy with how things look so far.

I believe the multiplayer demo has been closed, sorry. However...there's a real shortage of dedicated testers these days.

Go to this thread, and e-mail Betatestadmin. If you ask nicely, he'll probably let you in.
