Steam 社群 :: Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon

1.0 release date announcement!

4 月 25 日

Hey Everyone!

Another HUUUGE update today!

But before we go into details, let us start with a big heartfelt THANK YOU from our team! We received tons of amazing support from you, and it is extremely satisfying to the whole team watching you all play and enjoy our game!

We know it is not perfect yet, and rest assured that our team is 100% committed to ironing out all the bugs, crashes, or optimization problems. We already made 4 smaller technical patches and expect more soon!
Most importantly, we have fixed the majority of the issues that were crashing the game in some players' cases. We are continuing to work on the technical state of the game and performance!

NOW! To the big news.

We are extremely excited (and quite stressed, too :D) to announce the 1.0 launch date for Tainted Grail: the Fall of Avalon!

Here is the launch date trailer!

Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon will launch on Steam, Xbox, and PS5 on the...

23rd of May, at 5 pm CET!

Third Person Perspective

As you can see from the trailer, our team has taken in your feedback, given their best, and managed to implement a TPP view! Note that it will be available when the 1.0 version is released!

Let us highlight that while it will be playable, it is FAR from perfect, so we genuinely recommend playing in First Person View (this game was designed for FPP). But we know there are people who have problems with the FPP view, so we worked hard to add it as an “accessibility feature”.

It wouldn’t be complete without a new video from WolfheartFPS — this time diving into the thrilling Third-Person Perspective mode!
Take a look!

1.0 is COMING! 23rd of May; save the date, book your calendars, and take some free days at work… :D

As we have communicated before, with 1.0, we will do one last save wipe, and that’s it!

From there on out, you can fully experience the game, finish the full main quest, and enjoy exploration of all 3 huge regions.
We estimate the game to take around 50-70 hours to complete (main quest + a selection of side quests), but if you want to see and collect everything… well, prepare for a bit more :D

A few most important highlights of the full version of the game:

Access to the FULL game! 3 huge regions to explore (Misty Horns of the South, Cuanacht bathed in sun, and snowy Forlorn Swords)
50-70 hours of gameplay
Full, branching main story quest with hundreds of different endings
200+ side quests
250+ unique NPCs
400+ unique weapons, including shields
55+ unique spells + 14 soul cubes
75+ dungeons
100+ unique enemies, including variants

Supporter Edition

We have also prepared a special Supporter Edition of the game! You’ll be able to grab it once the 1.0 version is released.

With this edition, you will get:

Digital artbook (a few examples below)
OST from the game (a few track examples below)
> But most importantly: the one and only GOLDEN HORSE ARMOR!* <wink wink>

Now, you might ask yourself: why would I need a golden horse armour in a single-player game, especially if the horse is immortal? Good question!

Anyway, this pack will be 9.99 USD and is 100% not needed to play the game, but we will be extremely grateful for any extra support!

To be honest, we could add some more “cosmetic stuff” to the premium edition, like a beautiful Kelpie mount our team has created. But we decided against it. It would be kinda silly in a single-player game, wouldn't it?

Instead, you will have to work hard within the game to get to the Kelpie mount as a reward ^^

So, all of the cool stuff will be in the base edition of the game, but if you feel extra generous and you want to flex your wealth, there is always pointless, beautiful, golden armour. Golden, but modest.

*this joke was much better without *certain* remaster shadow-dropping on our asses :D But since we already had it prepared for quite some time…

On a serious note, it is so good to see Oblivion coming back with such a style! It is one of the games that shaped us when we were kids / teens, and continues to be a huge source of inspiration. BIG congratulations to the team responsible for the remaster! We can’t wait to get back to Cyrodiil ourselves, but for now… well, we have a game to finish first! And we are honestly doing our best to deliver something unique that we hope you will remember for quite a long time ;)

New, cool stuff!

Now! We are also adding TONS of amazing stuff to the game. Seriously, the amount of content in 1.0 is quite crazy. If you told us this is the final scope of the game, once we started working on it, we would laugh really hard :P

But here we are! And we cannot wait for you all to experience it.

Our team is going full speed, and your support is really helping us get through the hard time of getting the game *actually* finished.

The biggest screenshot dump ever, to pump up the hype a bit! :D

Achievements

On top of that, we have prepared for all of you some serious challenges in the form of quite epic achievements to get!
So, you will get quite a lot to do on 1.0! ; )

1.0 Beta?

Oh, you made it till the very end of this lengthy update?
That must mean you are quite interested in the game, hmm?

How about giving us a hand and helping with 1.0 Beta testing? We are starting it TODAY.
You can apply HERE[forms.gle]; selected people will get access to the full game (still with some missing content/bugs, etc.) and our secret Discord room, where we gather all the bug reports, feedback, and everything related.

To anyone with the time and willingness to help, we would be extremely grateful!
We'll start contacting the selected people no earlier than Monday, 28th. Stay tuned!

Now, back to making the game!

This feels almost unbelievable, but it’s less than a month to go… Let that sink in :D

Stay safe, and stay tuned, travelers!

Oh, and before we go: Patch Notes 0.9e!

In the meantime, we managed to sneak in another small hotfix! We know you are all very busy with another RPG that has just been released, but we have some very good news for you.

The main crash that has been plaguing you since the release of 0.9 should now be fixed \o/ (usually changing scenes, opening inventories)
If you experience any crashes after this patch, please let us know what you were doing and how often it happens, as it would be something else that we would need to track down
We have backported the fix for crashes when using a gamepad on locked choices mentioned in the previous patch notes

And another long-awaited change

Windows Defender snapping our game should be no more! We've begun signing the game with a trusted source that should prevent any future antivirus shenanigans

Two more significant fixes

Fixed white screen on game load with UI visible (Turns out DLSS does not like the number 3. Don't ask us why)
The patch note pop-up that was meant to show for everyone playing v0.9 did not display on hotfix patches (0.9a, etc.). We really wanted to make sure that everyone launching the game knew about the save wipe for 1.0. Unfortunately, this bug snuck in. We're sorry for this

And a tiny cherry on top

Your base movement speed stat should now save and load correctly. It completely reset after a load. oops

Revenant Armor too powerful/cheap

I really like the array of armors to choose from but found the ones the smith from the keeper castle gives you too powerful. Early on you receive these really fast and can craft them even faster. The stats they provide combined with the upgrade mechanic lead me to never switch of the Revenant armor set. That's a shame since most other armors you'll encounter throughout act 1 have really good designs and promising effects but are just too weak compared to the ones you can craft. What would help is locking ...

This game has left me with a problem; I know there's going to be one more wipe with the actual final release of the game, and I don't want to keep diving into early access to spoil myself on what the game will be, so I haven't played this game in like, over a month, but I can't stop thinking about it. Right now, I'm playing another, recently released game that is very good, that will probably be a contender for game of the year, but even then, I'm still thinking about Tainted Grail: Fall of Avalon. This review is my attempt to explain why I'm so hooked on the game.

Gameplay - This game has done what other companies who shall not be named started to do with games like Morrowind and Oblivion, and later betrayed with games like Skyrim and Fallout 4. I won't go into all the fine detail to explain why this is, but trust me when I say that the actual gameplay mechanics for this game, are far more refined and polished than anything to ever come out of the aforementioned, unnamed studio. If you are looking for the highest expression of quality of games like the Elder Scrolls series, this is it. Right here. Differences in weapon types are actually meaningful beyond superficial differences, spellcasting is truly unique and impactful instead of being nothing more than a cudgel with which to strike your enemies (and even there, it works better than it does in Oblivion or Skyrim, where endgame magic balance is so skewed against the damage-per-magicka equation that it's ridiculous), and crafting offers worthwhile advantages without creating infinite damage loops. Also, fewer bugs and crash conditions than those other games. As far as gameplay goes, this isn't just a love letter to games like Morrowind, it just plain surpasses them as a product. I could go on about just the gameplay, but if you've played those other games, and played this, I won't have to explain what I'm talking about.

Ordinarily, this is probably where I would start talking about another aspect of the game, like story, or sound design, or art direction, or stuff like that, and those are all great, don't get me wrong, but the game is the actual part that you play, and it is for that reason that I wanted to focus on the gameplay, and not worry too much about everything else. Yes, the story is very well-written, at least so far. While the Elder Scrolls games basically all had the protagonist be someone special (Nerevarine, Hero of Kvatch, and Dragonborn) due to some special accident of birth that marks them out as having a kind of divine virtue, the protagonist of TG:FoA stumbles into something resembling a curse, and the way in which it happens, makes a large portion of this narrative very personal (I'm honestly not sure who I should trust, not because everyone around me is untrustworthy, just the opposite in fact, because I have good reasons to trust and believe several of the characters, despite them being at significant odds with each other). There is just as much of an attempt to escape one's fate as there is to fulfill a calling here, and that lends layers and depth to the story that those other games just don't have. There's also a lot of other things going on that have convinced me that the writers for this game, are themselves very well-read.

At the risk of sounding like an insufferable snob, if you're looking for a more grown-up, better-realized take on the Elder Scrolls formula of gameplay, this is it.

To the devs: please, don't take my comparisons to mean that your game is derivative. It's not. While there are several similarities, there are also significant differences, and it's clear to me that you've taken what was good about older games, and grown the formula in your own way. After playing this, it is my hope that Questline becomes synonymous with 'Scrolls-likes' in the future, and that your work becomes the standard off of which other, similar games are judged.

Patch Notes 0.9d

4 月 16 日

Update on the state of the largest crash and Antivirus issues

Crash on texture loading: we seem to have found the core issue within the engine. We are now waiting on Unity to do a full investigation and a fix on their side. We will keep you guys updated on this as we learn more
Antivirus: We are working on having our game signed by a trusted source that should fix the issue permanently. Technicalities taking a bit longer than we wanted so it didn't land in this patch

Critical

One of the crashes that occurred with STP enabled should be fixed. We're really interested in whether people with this setting enabled see a big decrease in crashes especially on Inventory opening and closing. There are still other crashes that we're working on as well but related to other systems
Internal fix but it could have been a cause for some odd behaviours in random game systems. Some methods were improperly invoked twice in specific scenarios.
The madness invoked by the wyrdness was found to be a bit too wyrd. Fixed Wyrdnight enemy buffs stacking and not removing correctly when you loaded a save on which they were already applied.
Overriding saves had a critical issue that was likely the cause for some saves breaking and other odd save issues. Should be fixed now

Gameplay

Hob has been caught breaking the NDA. He promises that won't happen again (Some dialogues that should have been locked were available)
Fixed Master Craftsman skill having no effect aside from UI
Upgrading items and lowering armor weight now correctly takes your resources based on the shown value instead of the cost of upgrading to the next level

Misc

Summons are now a bit calmer when wandering around without a target. They were dancing a bit too much
Some more corrupted saves should now be accessible if you recently decided to attack/murder friendlies
Fixed dropping items in your equipment screen actually dropping your fists instead of the item in the slot. Oops

Some fixes we want to share that will land in 1.0

Issues with summons deciding they don't want to continue their journey with you.
Crashes when using a controller to select locked dialogue options or move past the last choice
Upgrading equipped items will correctly apply its changed special effect stat boosts. in 0.9 you need to reequip the item for the full effect
Falling below the ground on dismounting

This game gives me that old elder scrolls itch of "hey whats over there"... 7 hours later "hey whats over there"...
And every time you ask the question, I wonder if something is over there, under there, in there, on top of that.... the answer is always YES and its cool.

Final Build after Hard completion

Here is the build I had after finishing Tainted Grail Fall of Avalon on Hard which was my second playthrough, the first one was on normal difficulty. I chose a medium/heavy armor approach with this build. Magic especially the Phantom Push helps a lot again...

Patch Notes 0.9c

4 月 4 日

First a mention on issues we're still working on

We're still hard at work to track down the crashes on texture loading. Progress has been made. We hope to handle it for the next patch but it might take a while longer
Trojan/antivirus issues: we'd like to reassure you that this is a false positive, we're looking at a potential solution that will eliminate the problem for good. We'll let you know once we're further in the process. This may popup again after this hotfix. Apologies if it does, windows machine learning really doesn't like us
And lots more issues from everyones bug reports. Some will land in 1.0, more critical ones will be pushed in hotfixes ASAP

now off to the changes

Critical Fixes

The fireplace should no longer be part of the international space programs experiments on instantaneous travel (death and unexpected movement upon exiting fireplace)
Another fix for duels locking the player in dialogues forcing game close. Summons have been sternly reprimanded
Some corrupted saves should now be available again so take a look if your case was handled. We have a bunch more on our list for fixes in future patches

Gameplay Fixes

Settings
- Fixed movement keybind overrides being reset upon game restart
- Fixed Steam Input messing with PlayStation DualSense inventory opening
- You can now set your target FPS with vsync on
Mages attended a required maths class. The pain was unbearable. Power In Swiftness talent now correctly adds magic power based on movement speed above 100% instead of counting the base movement speed as well.

Misc Changes

The game will now only call an external platform for deciding your default graphics settings once, after save wipe, instead of on every launch.
Fixed some audio leaks that in rare cases caused the game to stall
Fixed a rare io exception when loading save files
A rare case where buttons became uninteractable should no longer occur
Credits have been updated
Added lots of missing translations for:
- Dialogue with Hob in Sunken Village - all supported languages
- Prologue readables - Japanese & Czech
- Readables that can be found in the Horns of the South region - all supported languages
- Missing "technical" translations - Japanese & Czech

Combat needs to be completely revamped

Combat is way too clunky. Half the time I miss and every time they literally sail across the room like a bullet and hit me without fail. Also, what were you thinking to have this clunky of a combat system yet at the same time expect me to take on three enemies at once? This has a lot of potential but as of now your combat system alone is keeping me from ever buying this game. It's just not fun to fight and we're talking the tutorial prison level. I mean it's 2025, a game shouldn't feel this bad....
