OXM - Ascend does some interesting and inventive new stuff, but lets start with the basics - this is an action role-playing game where you'll play a warrior the size of a small Godzilla and slaughter vast monsters in the name of your god.
GR said, "Remember Ascend: New Gods? Not too many people do. Signal Studios, or better known as those who brought you the Toy Soldiers franchise on Xbox Live, introduced the action title to the world during Microsoft’s 2012 E3 press conference. The game has been slated for a 2013 launch date, but little has been seen of the title, which will allow players to “wage war for your God as a brutal Caos warrior on a unique journey to Ascension,” since last year. However, a new trademark filed by the Xbox maker may be a sign that the game has taken on a new moniker."
They've also dropped the trademark for Ascend: New Gods, seemingly. Could be just the new title.
If its a great game, its a great game. A turd name doesnt stain a great game, right?
I wonder if this is one of the titles where the rumors of "MS games being six months behind" comes from?
Whatever it does I hope they keep the gameplay of "multiplayer-focused, turn-based strategy game". Games nowadays could use more of a variety and I have always been a fan of turn based games.
MTB: While at PAX East this year I had a chance to get my hands on Ascend: New Gods. I had seen the trailer, but other than that didn’t know what to expect. I am happy to report that I was pleasantly surprised by what the game has to offer.
Paste: "Yes, it’s free-to-play, but don’t sleep on Ascend: New Gods. The latest effort from Signal Studios, the developer responsible for the excellent Toy Soldiers games, is an interesting experiment in both design and business models."
This game looks pretty good and its free 2 play. Which makes it even better.
Nothing is New under the Sun, just repackaged with New Names to make them seem Original.
Return of the Nephilum: The Worship of False Gods, the Unholy union of fallen angels & ancient humans, creating "Giants" or "Nephilum". This is a very demonic & Evil game.....a complete "abomination".
p.s- I can hear the mockers, the ignorant masses , with little understanding, its ok, my feelings aren't hurt one bit, go ahead, deny the Truth....& mock....., to your own peril.
