What I will say is that I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and can't wait for the full game. I don't want to reveal anymore, since much could be subject to change before its final release. However, your excellent Journal will provide a few guiding hints. Torment: Tides of Numenera es un sucesor temático de uno de los mejores juegos de rol jamás creados. Don't look for arrows and flashing signs to tell you what to do next they don't exist. There is certainly plenty of variety and very little handholding. It has turn-based combat and a great deal of running around as you endeavour to solve a myriad of assorted quests. It has puzzles to solve, some of which have more than one possible solution. During the entire beta, I only had three forced combats I couldn't avoid, though there were several quests where resolving a problem using force was definitely an option.Īs with the original, this is a cerebral game and will likely not appeal to all gamers. Having said that, it was a pleasure to play a game where combat can be avoided if that's the style of game you wish to play. The developers are aware of this and hope to have it all ironed out prior to release. Your initial character choices and the additional choices you make as you build and develop your party will seriously affect your dialogue and potential combat options.Ĭombat is not the focus of this game, which was fortunate in the Beta, since I found the actual combat a little buggy and uneven. You will be reading and conversing with many people for many hours. Just like the original Planescape, this is a VERY text heavy game. When the game proper eventually begins you are introduced to your first two potential party members and you are ready to begin exploring and interacting with the world. Oh, for a good, old fashioned heavy game manual. At least once you reach the end of the opening sequence you have the opportunity to 'respec' your character, but it still would be beneficial to have more detailed explanations available. Hopefully, when the full game is released, there will at least be some 'tool-tips' to help and guide players unfamiliar with the Numenera universe. The opening sequence/tutorial/character creation segment of the game remains a 'work in progress' and was at times somewhat confusing, as there are currently few explanations available for all the terms being used. Talk to everyone, some of them more than once. Developers inXileEntertainment have announced they are looking at next year for their crowdfunded spiritual successor to Planescape: Torment. While some of these people are there merely to decorate the scenery, most will have a detailed conversation with you and many will offer a quest. Torment: Tides of Numenera has not been given a firm release date, having moved the RPG from December 2014 to the first half of 2015, followed by the final quarter of 2015, now we are into 2016. Each of the many maps is made for exploration and this is an aspect to be enjoyed there is something interesting to discover on all parts of every map there's very little 'empty' space and almost all the maps are crowded with people. The atmosphere also has been captured quite effectively, at least in the opening area of the Sagus Cliffs. The 'look' of the game is very reminiscent of PS:T from the architecture to the camera view I almost felt at home. I backed this game early because like many people here, I am a huge fan of Planescape: Torment and couldn't wait to try a new game made with a similar style.

Read the full notice on the Torment: Tides of Numenera KickStarter page.With the release of the new beta version being made available to all backers, I decided to download it and give it a spin. Lastly, Torment backers can check their account page to download a digital copy of the Torment comic penned by Patrick Rothfuss. However, with the beta release now available, we thought it was an ideal time to introduce a few. Previously, we have been a little quiet on sharing our characters with you, in large part to avoid spoiling them. Players remember many of the game's companions today for good reason, and with Torment: Tides of Numenera we are hoping to create deep, nuanced and interesting characters who you will be able to connect with, and in some cases, change. One of the defining elements in the original Planescape: Torment wasn't just its weird and wondrous world, but also its characters. Aligern, Callistege and Tybir are profiled on the Torment KickStarter page. In addition the the big bet a news, fans can get a first glance at three of the companions that will be include in Torment: Tides of Numenera. Those interested in trying the beta can purchase access via an add-on accessible through the Torment account page. Eligible players can log into their Torment account to access their Steam key.
