The recently greenlit Dead State has been a topic of conversation here at Greenlit Gaming for some time thanks to its interesting concept and strategic flair. We were fortunate to have the opportunity to speak with Brian Mitsoda of DoubleBear Productions about the game and their plans to make it the best survival experience possible.
This episode of Playing Roles takes a look at the origins and design of tactical-RPGs, and how a niche sub-genre in role-playing games is slowly growing in the modern day.
Love the genre but most suck. Nothing has topped Final Fantasy Tactivs yet and I assume nothing ever will. I just bought Blazing Souls Accelate and it too pales in comparison. Of course there's a few other gems like Tactics Ogre and Fire Emblem is usually solid but the gennre needs reinvigoration from a Final Fantasy Tactics 2 already.
IncGamers reports that Dead State's Early Access demo has been updated to beta form, adding in a whole lot of new stuff. 75 more locations, 35 more allies...
IncGamers' Peter Parrish enters the world of Dead State, where a man can be killed for a romance novel and some decent toilet paper.
