We can definitely consider it when deciding what to make next. After all, when it comes to halflings you can learn all that there is to know about their ways in a month, and yet after a hundred years they can still surprise you at a pinch. :gandalf:

I dont like proportion betwen Evil and Good/Neutral characters but thanks you add at least 1 Good :)

Satyr OP af. Not only he steals followers for free, but he also avoids fights, ditch items and got 2 4 at the start. Where's the weakness?
Ok i find the link to all characters bundle:
https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/10257/All_Characters_Bundle/

What suck in DLC character content is a lack of possibility to Disabel/Enable particular DLC characters in Talisman DE instead just "all or nothing" decision. You must decide and use "Standard characters only" or "Use All Characters". There is no option to MIX them as you like (so disable DLC characters which you think are OP etc. but keep the rest).

There is a lot of DLC chars which I dont like. If I will purchase new ones and gonna use them then I will need to enable option "Use ALL characters" so I will have DLC chars in game which I hate (I use "random 5 from pool" option when playing).

It sucks. It blocks me with new DLC chars content purchases.

We've definitely heard the request to be able to disable certain characters, I'll talk to the rest of the dev team tomorrow and see how feasible this is :heart:

All these characters will be included in the all characters bundle once they go live too!

Thank you, I think it would be one of these improvements which helps to sell more DLC characters now in the future + make players happy :)

Looking forward to the new characters, I'm old school Talisman player, so I remember two of them and I think the vampire was from 3rd edition white dwarf magazine. Three characters I would love to see are:

The mystic - Not strictly a character in the original 2nd edition it was a Advanced Character that you could upgrade your current character to, but it had such a novel ability I think it would make great addition to 4th edition.

Warrior of chaos - 2nd edition version, Just something so cool about this Character, watching your stats go crazy high.

Goblin Fanatic - 3rd edition, I would pick this just for fun, rolling 2 dice in combat and try to avoid a double

Sure nice characters and such. But what about fixing the 'XP not being granted almost all the time' issue ..?

Yep, I remember the Vampire from WD for 3rd edition. Glad to see this character coming back.

Isn't this ability the same as using the Flail from the City?

I do remember the fun of this one, especially since you were Strength 2, so if you din't use the ability, you were absolutely useless in combat...

It really shouldn't be that hard to implement, if the dev team can repurpose the UI for choosing characters when setting up a game. You can just turn on and off characters like you do for alternative endings.

They might want to include the option Character Pool to do this, with the default of all characters enabled.

The real challenge would be a deck editor, which could be cribbed from the My Collection interface in some way.

However these are done, can you be consistent and have all of these default to everything on, and work on saving them between games? It's generally easier to turn off the options you don't want, than turn on the ones you do want, in any of these types of pools...

Can we please have a Classical Overlord character. Like Sauron from LOTR or The Overlord from this game. "Overlord + Raising Hell trailer" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b3qYHrPTPM8

Edit: By the way. Awesome Characters for Talisman SO far. I love all the different characters we can play as for Talisman. :D

@All.
How do you think An Evil OverLord should be like in Talisman? I think he should have some game mechanics that deals with his Minions. An OverLord is not an OverLord with out some form of Minions. :3
