Officiell pressrelease om Eoris …

Redaktionen fick nyss en pressrelease från Visions of Essence.

Visions of Essence, LLC launched its new website for the Eoris Symphony art book and Eoris Essence RPG core book. This highly anticipated role-playing game has released a free Adventure for interested players to download and learn about the game and the system. Fantasy and Role-playing game enthusiasts can now enjoy this universe’s art, story, and game system.

Visions of Essence, LLC launched the new website for the Eoris Symphony art book and Eoris Essence RPG core book. This highly anticipated role-playing game can now be pre-ordered online. This new, next generation tabletop role-playing game (TTRPG) will delight both uninitiated and long-time gamers.

What is Eoris Symphony?
This is a beautiful, full-color, large-format art book with highly detailed paintings and artists’ comments.

What is Eoris Essence?
Eoris Essence is a premium-class, full-color, role-playing game core book that includes over 350 spectacular images, a profoundly intellectual setting, and a complete game system that gives players an incredible amount of freedom, unlimited character creation possibilities, and new features. In this book, players will find everything they need to start playing. There is no need to buy separate books or player manuals.

Eoris Essence in 3-steps!
Step 1 – Premium-quality Art
“We would like players to see Eoris Essence as a work of art, rather than just a role-playing game core book,” say the creators of the game. They have worked very hard to achieve excellent quality art in every page. In addition, something that is very particular about this game is that all the images were made by the creators themselves. This means that players will be seeing Eoris through the creators’ eyes. There is perfect harmony between the text and the art, which helps players have an accurate image of the setting and what it actually looks like. This in turn allows players to achieve a more realistic understanding of the general mood of the universe.

Step 2 – Profound and Highly-intellectual Setting
The Universe of Eoris is a high fantasy, profoundly intellectual setting that questions existence, the universe, and our place in it. Its storyline and deep philosophical and intellectual issues will result in a gaming experience that will provide a sense of transcendence, ultimately allowing players to submerge in intellectual and emotional dilemmas.

Step 3 – Game System
The system used is called the ‘Essence System’. “This system is not exclusively suitable for Eoris Essence; it can be used for different settings…the Essence System is exciting and versatile for both storytelling and combat gameplay,” explain the creators of the game. Through it, players may embody a regular everyday person (i.e. a baker, a writer, a merchant, etc.) or a very powerful warrior or mage. A unique aspect of the Essence System is that it encourages players to consider their Characters as real living beings with dreams, hopes, and aspirations. For this reason, the developers have incorporated several storytelling features that bring Characters to life and allow players to relate more profoundly to their fantastical counterparts. Through social interaction, for example, a character’s emotional condition may suffer strong changes (both positive and negative). As in real life, these changes will have systemic repercussions on a Character’s performance.

For more about Eoris please visit the Eoris Essence official website, particularly, the ‘Frequently Asked Questions’ section: www.eorisessence.com.

The preview and Adventure of the setting can be downloaded in the ‘Downloads’ section of the website under ‘Contacts’: see Second Contact and Third Contact.

"Ett Synnibarr för 2000-talet" var också vad det kallades på RPGnet. Det negativa mottagandet kan ha något att göra med att skaparna av allt att döma skapade sockpuppets som promotade spelet.

Re: Officiell pressrelease om Eoris …

Det de säger låter ju vettigt och så, men sättet det presenteras på tyder på att de inte vet ett smack om vad de sysslar med. Bara det faktum att de tror att "it encourages players to consider their Characters as real living beings with dreams, hopes, and aspirations" gör spelet unikt tyder på att de inte har någon som helst koll på rollspelsutvecklingen under de senaste åtta åren eller så.

Men de höga aspirationerna och att de faktiskt har försökt skapa ett tradspel med sociala regler gör mig något intresserad. Det vore schysst om man kunde få tag på en PDF för att kika närmare på det. Allting tyder på att systemet är keff, utom det de faktiskt säger om systemet.

Viral marketing i all ära, men det bårdar ju inte gott. Det luktar kalkon av det hela. Frågan är bara om det spöar Synnibarr, helt enkelt. Vet vi om skaparna dykt hoppat i vatten från höga höjder?

Synibarr är inte snyggt. Det är snarare likt Coriolis.

Hehe.

Jag vill se en dödsmatch mellan McCracken och Eoris' skapare. Helst med dödlig utgång för åtminstone McCracken, skaparna av Eoris ska jag inte döma innan de odlat porrmustasch.

De tar i så de spricker.. men det kanske man måste göra over there...

Jag tänker vara positivt skeptisk tills jag ser spelet i verkligheten... Även om jag inte tror det är min påse så väntar jag med att dissa det tills jag sett det i verkligheten. Grafiskt ser det ju påkostat ut, men inte alls i min smak.

Re: Officiell pressrelease om Eoris …

Most of the concepts in The World of Synnibarr come from Raven’s real-life experiences, trying to make the gaming rules logical and as believable as possible. He has worn armor, fought with weapons, dodged arrows, rode horses, participated in live gaming, run races, acted, performed magic tricks, jumped off diving boards, flown airplanes, fought in life-and-death situations, and fired guns, all of which makes The World of Synnibarr ring with authenticity.

Storuggla, it's from the book!

Coolt. Precis som man fantiserade om att göra när man var 14 för att få till det mest realistiska rollspelet nånsin. :gremlaugh:

Press-releasen lyckas med syftet att väcka uppmärksamhet i bruset. Så det är ju bra - jag tror att alla här numer känner till namnet på spelet.

Sedan att som okänd gå ut med så mycket varmluft utan någon backning gör det hela lite parodiskt. Nåväl om de hade haft några kända designers eller författare som kunde stå för produkten, men alltid när det bara står vaga referenser ("creators of...") utan namn så blir jag skeptisk.

Hade de tonat ned tugget lite hade jag gillat den. Nu är det för mycket - speciellt med avslutningen i boilerplate:n där de älskar alla jordens djur och växter...
