    Hi It looks really cool. I am just wondering if it will stay all black and white or if when you actually start designing it will get revamped. I recently backed FF Adventures because I love FF and the art was so good. Will this have anywhere near the same quality? and what is the expected price range?

    • @ariongames8822
      @ariongames8822 9 днів тому

      It will stay black and white. All of the art you see here and from now on is "final", although there may be some tweaks to certain tiles etc. Personally I prefer the more classic B&W art for FF as that is what FF was always about. Artists like Russ Nicholson and John Blanche really epitomised the feel. The price is not quite finalised but is likely to be in the £40-45 range

      @@ariongames8822 Firmly agree. Nicholson's depictions in D&D's Fiend Folio (amongst his many other works) was such a departure for my young eyes from the shiny knight/damsel schtick, perfectly illustrating how I imagined the fantasy world looked in all its dangerous glory. Will always remain my favourite artist for RPG's. Excited to see it launch. My kids have been reading through my POD AFF Deluxe recently and really seem to enjoy Gascoigne's Titan setting so this bodes well. I hope there are reasonably priced shipping options to places like Canada so I don't have to mortgage the house to get it. heh

    Wasn't really sure the best place to leave the comment but have been reading and enjoying some of the new options (in my campaign, one character was an Arcane Blank and I had to house rule what that meant and I'm glad to see Natural Mage got a bit nerfed because early on it was rather minor but having played through a campaign with a later-on mage it started to feel a bit silly). The new spell casting options make a lot of sense and should make any magic character more interesting to run. However, there's a mention of "waning magic defense" at the end and it cites "Chapter 4" and I think I'm just missing it. I had been house ruling something like using extra MP to punch through defenses already and THEN treating it like an opposed roll but I'm interested in other options.

    Whoa! Wait, wait, wait!!! Are you Graham?!? If so… first: Thank you! (As a Yank who only discovered FF about ten years ago, sadly, but joyously). If I have your ear for a tiny moment…. Please consider a game based on the original, introductory FF RPG (ever, so slightly expanded….like…whatever ‘skill’ you like, or some such). There’s a great clone, called Spellzard! that does that, but you’re in a wonderful and unique position to do it full-force! (As a rules-lite guy AFF is still far too much for me, but “expanded FF RPG” is not. Is there a market there?) Thank you again for keeping this game alive! Cheers!

So you can create a character, open the new book and generate a quest, sub-missions, a setting that unfolds as you explore it, villains and will allow you to run through this as a solo adventure.
