Will both games be released at the same time, or will you finish Redemption first and then The New King?

Welcome on the board!

We will first finish Redemption.

Thanks Corv.

I am looking forward to it very much, as everything I have seen so far is great.

Another thing I was wondering about though, how will party members be handled? I remember it was a real pain in Morrowind when someone was following you. They often ended up stuck and I was afraid to accidentally kill them Smile

Dont worry, the companions wont be scripted like in Morrowind - so they won tbe annoying anymore, but a real help.

The Morrowind companion system seemed okay to me. My only problem was them running into the path of my weapons at times. If the AI is better, a better AI in regards to FFI would be a relieving upgrade all on it's own.

Well, if you didnt get annoyed by the following "system" then youre a seriously patient player Wink

May just be style, I dunno. I don't run into problems with the 'following system' so much, probably because I use roads more often than running through forests or mountains. I only run off the trail if I feel like fighting monsters, and that normally doesn't happen when an NPC is following me.

So far, beyond a couple mods, I've only ever had companions where the NPC needed to go directly to another place. There was never much of a need to go hunting and thusly running through trees and stuff, causing them to get lost.

Ok, then I understand why you didnt run into problems yet... But in our 2 projects you will have real companions and not only quest-related followers. So its important that they dont get stuck every 10 inches Wink

Well, just as long as the little buggers don't go "I'm hungry! I must have food!" then I can put up with anything.

They WILL do that - you dont have to feed them manually, but you have to have food with you... And since we have a great cooking system you will have fun making food, trust me Smile
