Find the differences!


Hi Kommanders!

Who are the “real” Heroes in the upcoming episodes of Fantasy Kommander?

 

Before you try to answer , have a look at these images...

 

MarkusEW2 Marcus
MARCUS
(FANTASY KOMMANDER - EUKARION WARS)
MARCUS
(FANTASY KOMMANDER 3)
EladenEW Eladel
ELADEN
(FANTASY KOMMANDER - EUKARION WARS)
ELADEN
(FANTASY KOMMANDER 3)
YumakEW Yumak
YUMAK
(FANTASY KOMMANDER - EUKARION WARS)
YUMAK
(FANTASY KOMMANDER 3)



As you can see we have 2 versions of Marcus (the Humans Hero), 2 of Eladen (the Elven Hero) and 2 of Yumak (the Dwarven Hero)...

 

Why?

Because as I told you in the first episode of this Diary we'll release two (connected, but different) games:

  • Fantasy Kommander 3
  • Fantasy Kommander – Eukarion Wars

These games will be very similar, but not identical.

 

They will have in common: Setting, Game Rules, In-Game Graphics.

They will have different Heroes' Concepts, Artworks, Multiplayer Feature, Length.

The Artists that drew the heroes are different, but the heroes and their stories don't change from FK3 to FKW.


In order to revive the FK Series on the free flash market, we decided to develop Fantasy Kommander 3. This free to play game will support the release of Fantasy Kommander – Eukarion Wars, which will be a huge game in comparison to Fantasy Kommander 3.

The storyline of FK3 will have a little connection with FKW and I suggest to the fans of the serie to play FK3 before FKW.
Anyway, FKW could be played as standalone. FKW will be the only game with the multiplayer and will be 10 times bigger than FK3.

 

FK3 will have only 1 Adamantia campaign with 5 main battles and 2 “side quests” (I added these kind of battles after your comments guys ;) )

FKW will have many different campaigns and you'll have the chance to be a Kaos or Adamantia Commander.

FK3 will be probably released in Beta version here on AOG... we hope soon!

 

And now, as always, some questions for you:

  1. Do you prefer “Marcus FK3” or “Marcus FKW”?
  2. Do you prefer “Eladen FK3” or “Eladen FKW”?
  3. Do youprefer “Yumak FK3” or “Yumak FKW”?
  4. Was this explanation about the differences between FK3 and FKWclear enough or now you're more confused than before?

 

As always, feel free to ask me anything!

Citazione Pastrami:
Well, I don't mean to be negative, but it seems like developing 2 parallel sets of art assets in different styles is a waste of resources that could be spent expanding the game.


Don't worry this work doesn't touch the gameplay development ;-)

Which looks better?
Mardus: FK3
Eladen: FKW
Yumanc: Both are good. FK3 for the grittier but also odder one
FKW for the more heroic and clean one.

1. Both unlikely for me. FK3 Markus looks like Leonid from 300 movie. EW Markus looks like glamour star.
2. EW.
3. EW. Because FK3 Yumak looks like bodybuilder before competition.

Marcus: FK3 style.
Eladen: FK3 style, but maybe with a slightly modified pose? If she brought her left arm forward some it might look less ackward. FKEW version looks great, but does seem to be showing off a little too much feminine wiles & the hair style looks... more mysterious in FK3.
Yumak: FKEW style. He looks a little starved in the FK3 style... like maybe he hasn't tasted ale in a few weeks. That's sure drive a dwarf nuts.

Citazione fergusferret:
two versions of each character.

markus ew looks like he couldn't use the sword he has his hand on and his armour looks like it was polished up and fitted just for the photograph opportunity. He also looks neater than a seasoned commander probably should.

Markus fk3 looks like he can handle himself in a fight and has the sort of look about him that says he is in command.

Eladen ew looks like she is trying to show off her attributes a little more than she should be but then she is an elf so it could be that she uses her charms a lot.

Eladen fk3 looks a little awkward and stiff as if she is not at all comfortable with her pose or the clothes she has on.

Yumak is the consummate fighter in both of the pictures.

all in all I prefer markus fk3, Eladen ew and Yumak fk3.

Your explanation is not confusing as such but does differ from what I was expecting. I had expected some information about characters and races in the ew version along with a bit more information about the races in fk3.


In the next episode of this Diary I'll start to talking about Races and Armies.

It's a long long way... :-)

Pour les personnages masculins je préfère FK3 mais pour l'elfe je préfère Eukarion Wars

I seem to like the FK3 artwork more.
But apart of Marcus the other ones are okay, too.
I think I simply really don't like the FK-EW Marcus. He doesn't look like a hero. More like some kind of perfectly groomed villain... ;-)

As for question 4: Not confused. But a little irritated. I'd like the same artworks for both games more. It would fit the description and would be a connecting point.
But it's really okay. I don't even know if I can expect much in the way of 'closeness' to the hero in the campaigns. Will depend on the story...
