A little tip for people trying this that I didn't figure out until later. On the bottom left, next to the world map icon, there is an icon that turns on visual cues for things in your range of senses. I found lots of lootable bodies, graves and other things that way that I'd not have otherwise noticed.
Thanks for putting this up, as one of the voice actors in the game its great to see it and read some of the great comments !! it was fun to work on and the team are amazing.
I must admit, 'grimdark' is the key to my heart these days. Give me games about eating bugs in the Polish forest while wolves chase you, I'm all for it. Give me more games like Fear and Hunger lol.
I like how Splatt just left that 1 guy having his sanity slowly destroyed while *everyone else* got to stay in the firelight, inside the camp, and taking turns drinking and relaxing. Everybody else gets to relax and recover, and that 1 poor bastard is just being *completely* neglected, even though his portrait and sanity bar are both flashing to show he's not doing well.
This game looks dope as hell. You can feel the passion from both visuals and audio. The voice acting is pretty darn neat and the ambience and setting give off that Tainted Grail vibe with some Slavic inspiration in there! If it pushes further upon that "unknown" mystery and horror element we might be in for a treat!
This game is insane! From what I understand is that Team17 is the publisher and COVENANT the dev team is made up of some of the same team that worked on The Witcher 3. It has those vibes through out the game. Can't wait to play the full game!!!
This game looks amazing. Not only are the cut scenes very clean but the gameplay animations are also beautiful and flow naturally. For sure going to pick this game up if I can. We need more games like this. The passion and effort put into it is just refreshing.
Poor Leontyne was grabbed to fight wolves while carrying reeds and then left behind when the rest ran onwards, making her get out of torch range, thus losing sanity. Splat was clueless like always. I hope the finished game has some kind of "to arms" button that makes your villagers take their resources to a storage and then gather in a central location.
I can't believe I'm about to be that guy but, the spiders you're seeing are most likely Western Spotted Orb Weavers rather than St. Andrews Cross spiders. The former are very prolific in North America, the latter is from Australia.
That was very polite to say "Luxory of your time" 🙂 Thank YOU for your time, doing the videos. I got a lot of inspiration from your videos, bought some games, and had a lot of fun ! Namely: Rimworld, V Rising, Salt2. I was eying Everspace2 a lot, but I am still to "cheap", the price is a grudge for now. A short time back, I was super picky and never even tried new games. Early Access is zero problem, I treat them as finished, assuming I will never get to a point where there's an "end".
Just finished the demo, and lets just say that I wish Splat had kept going for like another 15 mins. That last choice definitely gets this game that Grimdark title.
5:44 Splattercat coming up on a pile of corpses "Can I loot this thing?" "Oh yeah, look at that, we got 50 bucks" "See that's why you always check, you never know". ... And this is why he's not invited to my funeral.
Now this I like. They managed to put quite a lot of character into some gameplay we've all seen before. Every aspect seems to be expertly crafted too . Thumbs up!
Very excited for this game, although I do wonder how much customization you'll have over your gord. The videos I've seen so far seem to have buildings unlock as part of tutorials/story, havn't seen anything offering choices between buildings or upgrades for them and such. Hopefully that's part of the final release.
Finished the demo earlier today. They definitely talk about building upgrades in the full version (and there are some graphics assets that show, which indicates they are already in development, just not in tutorial/demo yet).
If I had actually been given this task by a warlord, first thing I'd do is 'accidentally' let that pompous dwarf Edwyn be eaten by wolves. I can tell just from seeing and hearing him that he'll be trouble.
I almost expect a certain white-haired monster hunter upon a horse to make his appearance within the camp. Been waiting on some gameplay from this one and it looks promising. I also do love the narrative and the cutscenes are great. I just hope the game doesn't play like Frostpunk where you are forced to play a certain way or are punished heavily for it, such as having to completely restart the playthrough until you do what the game wants you to.
Really? Team17? Like "Worms" Team17? Good gods!! I thought they'd folded back in the late 90s/early Oughts! Nice to them still up & fighting. Many a long hour spent with Worms back in the day, and Alien Breed as well. xXx
It's amazing that we are getting all these nice games, Aliens, Gord.. please devs more RTS with these creative twists, like imagine they remake XCOM to be more like RTS with slow-motion instead of turn based game 🤓
Hey Drongo! I'm really enjoying the BAR content! Thank you! Can you do a video on hotkeys, autogroups, and basic controls? There's so much to learn for a beginner to the game.
It almost feels like you are spying on my wishlist, this is among the many demos I have downloaded from Next Fest. I am actually playing the games while watching your videos, love Hammerwatch 2 so far.
Honestly, when I first saw the trailer I was pretty indifferent about it, but the little crumbs of story have me hooked! I’ll be looking forward to this game coming out
I was expecting another city builder but it looks more like a RTS with some RPG mechanics. Splat's vague titles strike again... I love persistent elements in a RTS campaign and the presentation is great so now I'm interested.
You're killing me with the Project Zomboid music voice in the background lol. Because you're so right. Keep up the great work, love watching your videos.
Oh we havent had something like this in years..im excited. wish i could like hear better though...gotta be tons of atmos and ambience music i cnt hear..voices r hard to understand too but i assume they r good
Splat I don’t think you’re seeing St. Andrews Cross Spiders, their habitat is in Australia and Tasmania. They were also spotted in China. But I didn’t see any mentions of them in California.
Splat, every time you describe where you live I can't help but go "no wonder you just stay in and play video games" and want to start a "move splat" fund
I’m getting Darkest Dungeon vibes from this. Maybe it”s the sanity mechanic combined with building a hamlet but yeah. It’s no bad thing I’m getting Darkest Dungeon vibes from this. Ergo I think they need to keep nailing the dialogue pf the characters as the narrator of DD was, IMO, it’s best feature. “Exsanguination should be considered a virtue.”
Team 17 is the publisher not the devs and thank god for that. As soon as they took over for Black Matter on Hell let Loose, everything started going to shit.
This game takes place in a fictional setting. If it was supposed to be exactly like medieval Europe it would have taken place in a real European setting.
"You know the games is serious when you hear the song whohehehehohoho" Splattercatgaming June 2023 XD too much. "Lay eggs on you", influence of the last alien game played hummm........!
Going to new places and exploring new things is very natural but mostly for men/males. Curiosity is a special character enhanced in males - the seekers of pray and new territories, while females tend to the family and home...

THIS COMMENT!
Thanks for putting this up, as one of the voice actors in the game its great to see it and read some of the great comments !! it was fun to work on and the team are amazing.
Bravo sir! Voice actors deserve due credit for the often outstanding and unsung work you put into titles like this.
I must admit, 'grimdark' is the key to my heart these days. Give me games about eating bugs in the Polish forest while wolves chase you, I'm all for it. Give me more games like Fear and Hunger lol.
does "darkwood" count?
@@raidermaxx2324 Darkwood is very much one of the games I had in mind lol.
The animations are so smooth, and the lighting, every thing about this seems very polished. Great job devs.
LMAO DO YOU EVEN HAVE EYES? It looks like it was footage rejected from Assassin's Creed Valhalla

Well, after all these are people who used to work in CDPR on Witcher 3 game.
"You're either going to get bit by a spider or you're going to find a dead guy. Don't go out there." 🤣🤣🤣
I want to know if the spiders are responsible for the dead guy. Cause that’s what it sounds like.
This game is insane! From what I understand is that Team17 is the publisher and COVENANT the dev team is made up of some of the same team that worked on The Witcher 3. It has those vibes through out the game. Can't wait to play the full game!!!
Probably why the music sounds like witcher 3.
Yeah, i just posted a comment mentioning that 😊
Team 17 recently took over development duties for Hell Let Loose and everything started going to shit so it's good they are just publishers.
yep deffo how i got the witcher feeling from the music, intro, artwork and atmosphere
Hope Team17 don't fuck it up like they did with HLL...
Mead was a vital resource for keeping the people hydrated as drinking water that wouldn’t poison you was very rare.
That's a common misconception, water generally was cleaner back then.
This game looks amazing. Not only are the cut scenes very clean but the gameplay animations are also beautiful and flow naturally. For sure going to pick this game up if I can. We need more games like this. The passion and effort put into it is just refreshing.
I am very impressed with the voice acting, especially Edwyn's. Absolutely brilliant.
Thanks for bringing this game to my attention.
Poor Leontyne was grabbed to fight wolves while carrying reeds and then left behind when the rest ran onwards, making her get out of torch range, thus losing sanity. Splat was clueless like always.

looks great! but...those trees are flapping crazy in the wind, but the hair, clothing, fire and sound tells me the air is completely still.
Just finished the demo, and lets just say that I wish Splat had kept going for like another 15 mins. That last choice definitely gets this game that Grimdark title.
5:44 Splattercat coming up on a pile of corpses "Can I loot this thing?" "Oh yeah, look at that, we got 50 bucks" "See that's why you always check, you never know".
...
And this is why he's not invited to my funeral.
Now this I like. They managed to put quite a lot of character into some gameplay we've all seen before. Every aspect seems to be expertly crafted too . Thumbs up!
Man I'm feeding the dwarf to a beasty the first chance I get
Well color me impressed. Was very surprised by the quality of the cutscenes and voice acting.
Very excited for this game, although I do wonder how much customization you'll have over your gord. The videos I've seen so far seem to have buildings unlock as part of tutorials/story, havn't seen anything offering choices between buildings or upgrades for them and such. Hopefully that's part of the final release.
I would like alternative routes like frostpunk, but perhaps thats too much to ask.
Finished the demo earlier today. They definitely talk about building upgrades in the full version (and there are some graphics assets that show, which indicates they are already in development, just not in tutorial/demo yet).
Incredible visuals on this one! Thanks as always for the consistently great content!
Welcome? Yes, thank you. But I want to be welcomed to the Nerd Castle. There ever and always my heart dwells.
Lol I like how splatt improvises with the mead part. I had to rewind to make sure. That was really good.
“Alcoholism is moving our society forward” true words have never been spoken🍺
Great video as always. Only thing missing was the welcome to the nerd castle 😀
Very cool looking game - I love the style, and really enjoy the cutscenes and voice acting!
A dark fantasy settlement building and survival horror, nice !
my man leontyne slowly going insane gathering reeds.
I was waiting for Boghdan to say, "sit awhile and listen" like the guy in Diablo I.
Edwyn is a prime candidate for defenstration. Repeated, if needed.
If I had actually been given this task by a warlord, first thing I'd do is 'accidentally' let that pompous dwarf Edwyn be eaten by wolves. I can tell just from seeing and hearing him that he'll be trouble.
Really cool production quality for indie game! And dialogs and animations inside cutscenes!
The short guy sounds like he voiced Ikit Claw from Total War Warhammer
I almost expect a certain white-haired monster hunter upon a horse to make his appearance within the camp.
Been waiting on some gameplay from this one and it looks promising. I also do love the narrative and the cutscenes are great. I just hope the game doesn't play like Frostpunk where you are forced to play a certain way or are punished heavily for it, such as having to completely restart the playthrough until you do what the game wants you to.
I've been loving these games that have been using perspective changes and UI changes to allow for better implementation of mechanics.
This game looks gorgeous!
Really?
Team17?
Like "Worms" Team17?
Good gods!! I thought they'd folded back in the late 90s/early Oughts!
Nice to them still up & fighting. Many a long hour spent with Worms back in the day, and Alien Breed as well. xXx
>
I'm picturing the dead marshes from LOTR. Splatty, don't follow the lights.
It's amazing that we are getting all these nice games, Aliens, Gord.. please devs more RTS with these creative twists, like imagine they remake XCOM to be more like RTS with slow-motion instead of turn based game 🤓
i love how tyhe guy fails to notice that one pesent was cosntantly losing moral by working out side ;D
Hey Drongo! I'm really enjoying the BAR content! Thank you! Can you do a video on hotkeys, autogroups, and basic controls? There's so much to learn for a beginner to the game.
That intro alone already is amazing!
Finally!!!! I’ve been waiting for this for so long. I love your channel splat
The obligatory post-2020 box ticking in these games is so silly and just obliterates emersion.
With that intro my first thought is "Right I need to succeed here so I can overthrow that dude"
the intro looks like the witcher 3 artwork. nice!!!
13th warrior reference had me sold on the game!
I haven't watched that movie in such a long time. What was the reference?
It almost feels like you are spying on my wishlist, this is among the many demos I have downloaded from Next Fest. I am actually playing the games while watching your videos, love Hammerwatch 2 so far.

Holy crap I died when he did that OOAOAOO
the art style of the cut scenes reminds me of ancestors.
The cool thing is they got Jim Cummings to play the voice for The Chief of the Tribe of the Dawn
I've been waiting for this one. Thank you!
Oh we havent had something like this in years..im excited. wish i could like hear better though...gotta be tons of atmos and ambience music i cnt hear..voices r hard to understand too but i assume they r good
I'm so down for this. Wishlisted for sure.
Young Gandalf is looking great.
The St Andrew's spider looks like the Yellow Garden spider from around here in Pa
This game gives me a story based RTS feel like warcraft 3 did. Where the story progresses and each new map has more stuff you can do.
Bro the "ohhhehhoahhh" guy intro got me good hahahaha
I cant believe after you survived the piggies that you continued on into the woods after that lol.
Don't leave the pallisades! Lest you become out of your Gord!
I played this demo and I cant wait for the full release
This looks awesome. Will have to see if they are on GOG
Splattercatgaming is a Crow Fisher
Watch out for them "wooves" 🤣
Looks great
Never been this quick on the draw before
Looked up the spider... regret. Never will I step into a swampland if those bastards are there.
Heyyy splattercat hope you're doing well
That's Witcher soundtrack 1:1
Splat I don’t think you’re seeing St. Andrews Cross Spiders, their habitat is in Australia and Tasmania. They were also spotted in China. But I didn’t see any mentions of them in California.
If the logo of Frostpunk and front image of a t-shirt of an average metalhead had a baby then it wouldn't be far off from that of Gord's
I was thinking the logo looks just like Frostpunk out of the corner of your eye.
Thanks for showcasing! ^^
That intro has uber Age of a Empires 2 vibes. Instantly reminded me of the campaign for ghenghis khan.
As of my first impression, this looks interesting!
Like only because of that first Splattercat sing: *OOhhAAYHHhhOHHhh!!!
This game looks cool as, cheers Splattercat for letting us know this game is out.
This interface is *extremely* Frostpunk. Typeface, style, it's identical.
This is a game for me.
Ill wait for full release on Steam
That Game has The Witcher Vibes. I bet a lot of inspiration was drawn from the story
I mean, made by some of the same people 😜
Splat, every time you describe where you live I can't help but go "no wonder you just stay in and play video games" and want to start a "move splat" fund
00:44 please release as a ringtone.
I.
NEED.
IT.
I’m getting Darkest Dungeon vibes from this. Maybe it”s the sanity mechanic combined with building a hamlet but yeah. It’s no bad thing I’m getting Darkest Dungeon vibes from this. Ergo I think they need to keep nailing the dialogue pf the characters as the narrator of DD was, IMO, it’s best feature.
“Exsanguination should be considered a virtue.”
12:04 I actually loled 🤣🤣
Pretty sure Edwin will be the dead guy out in the reeds
the guy who narrates the intro sounds exactly like Syneros in expeditions rome
nothing good is out in those bulrushes. you either get bit by a spider or find someone else who was bit by a spider xD
I swear Boghdan has the same VA as the character from the tutorial in Stoneshard
Was really hoping Edwyn (the fat emissary of the king) would get eaten.
Team 17 is the publisher not the devs and thank god for that. As soon as they took over for Black Matter on Hell let Loose, everything started going to shit.
'where were the guys with the spears!'
This game reminds me of Banished. Interesting.
Huge potential. I love it so far. 💞✌😊👍
0:35 Thanks, I almost choked on my sandwich 😂
and the next afrocentrism game
??
This game takes place in a fictional setting. If it was supposed to be exactly like medieval Europe it would have taken place in a real European setting.
Been waiting for a while for this game. I'm looking forward to this
"You know the games is serious when you hear the song whohehehehohoho" Splattercatgaming June 2023 XD too much.
