Will this be like MYZ ?

[[Ygg]Azarhiel]

I will be a little brutal here.

Is this game will be like MYZ aka :

- short narative driven story
- no character creation
- not being able to grind stuff and being limited if you die too much
- unbalanced combat with uncontroled difficulty spikes
- no endgame, world feeling empty and no replayability

I did not like MYZ because it was too harsh on the player, did not have any depth in character building and felt boring quickly...

And I'll add also, If this turns out to be a puzzler like MYZ was I'll happily ignore this one.

There is no point for end game here. It’s a story driven game. Not all games need end game and the world to feel alive. Myz was no puzzler you could approach each combat in many ways depending on your team and setup. Unbalanced combat??? I played myz on hard and it seemed quite easy as long as you use the tools the game gives you. On this front I think you are both out of luck. Look on youtube the devs had an interview a few weeks ago and they confirm it will expand upon myz.

cheers! care to share a link on that interview ..?

You can find it on youtube. I can’t copy the link from yt app. But I found something even better. Half an hour gameplay from shacknews. https://rpgwatch.com/forum/threads/miasma-chronicles-alpha-preview.53660/

MYZ is an RPG in the first place, i will never understand the limitations of MYZ and now this game. But i can safely say that i'm not interested...

For me an RPG is about building a character and its gear (done with farming and customization...). Nothing of that was in MYZ despite it having a TTRPG book counterpart.

If some people play anything like that guy from shacknews no wonder now they have an easy mode. Maybe they should have an ultra easy mode too. That guy plays so bad…. Not using cover not picking loot up from the ground after the battle. Etc. Anyways a new preview link: https://www.rpgsite.net/preview/13300-miasma-chronicles-looks-to-be-a-promising-upcoming-tactical-rpg

I agree, he is playing really bad. I watched and i guess it is not a bad game. If i can finish MYZ and that is a big IF because i'm not really hypes to play it), maybe i'll give Miasma a go in the future...

Is it safe to assume then that this is not another MYZ ruleset game told from a different perspective? Or in GM terms a new campaign.

Was kind of hoping it wold be tbh.

While it is a different world settings, i'm pretty sure there will be systems that are present in both games

Haters gonna hate. Move tf on if you don't like their games.

MYZ and Corruption 2029 were both dope games, especially considering they came from a pretty small team.

i'm not a hater !! Don't need to be rude !!
I prefer getting the information that i need before buying the game yes...

MYZ did not click with me the first time, i'll try again and maybe i'll like it for what it is...

Thanks for your honesty here YggAzarhiel!

We'd like to think that Miasma Chronicles is a somewhat spiritual successor to MYZ, but turned up to 11. The team have certainly learned and grown a lot since then, and Miasma is certainly the game that is the sum of all that growth. Expect a larger narrative focus, lots of exploration and really edgy and rewarding combat - honestly, it's pretty cool.

Of course, we'll have loads more to share and show with you soon, but in the meantime check out the brand new Character Trailer which should give you a glimpse into the world we've made

Interesing vid.

24:47 The double damage bonus, when character is hidding, seems unbalanced to me. Shouldn't it be (crit) hit chance-rate related instead of heavily damage-related? Let's see if also the on-screen listed calculation of hit probability and critical chance stay hidden in the final new game compared to MYZ.

edit: made it more clear

[drusca]

Why should it be hidden??? You need it.

Thank you. Could you share more general details? Upgradeable weapons? Game length? Replayability? More characters?
