A video from PAX09 about Elemental

from Elemental Forums

Almost an interview, but I'm not in the media.  Hopefully it'll shed some light.  My camera died about halfway through frogboy's presentation at 1pm today, however, I have plenty of elemental footage to share and HERE IT IS!

Instead of starting a new topic, here's a link to a low quality (compressed for size/bandwidth restrictions) video of Scott (BoogieBac) talking to a guy about the editors.

And for those of you that don't like my camera work, sorry... I'm a fan with a camera, not a cameraman/camerafan.

Edit/Update: Since this is still on the Impulse Community front page, here's the link to the other forum post I made with all of my links to WMV's longer than 20minutes

Hey Boogie!

Nice interview and very nice footage of the game. Don't have time to get overanalysing it right now but I'm sure over people will soon enough :)

Just one thing: "In the beta that we will be putting out next month..." ACK!!!

Yes, I was enjoying the footage up until the point:  "In the beta that we will be putting out next month...".

Say it aint so! 8O

Trust me, it'll be worth it.  Some things can afford the wait.  Impulse Phase IV is also pretty nice looking.  Can't wait.  Will have footage up tomorrow.

Thanks for taking the video!  It does a great service to those of us who are half a country away from PAX  :-)

Thanks for the video. However, I now feel a little motion sick. Between the camera swinging around and the game map being messed with.  Erghh....

Awesome, finally some in-game footage. I must say, that this game will be on my HDD for a very long time, that is for sure. :D

Reply #14 from Elemental Forums Top

Awesome video!!!! One thing I thought was really cool was the channeler's cape was blowing in the wind. I love those minor details. However...the volcano kicked butt as well :)

+1 karma for you. Thanks for sharing!

The game engine looks nice but after playing the CIV4 fantasy mod I wonder if the gameplay is a bit lightweight from what I have seen.

Reply #21 from Elemental Forums Top

I assume you mean FFH.  I have faith in Stardock.  I mean given that their last game like this was GalCiv 2, I doubt this will be light on strategic depth.

Btw, could you spot the hidden Yahtzee in that vid (Zero Ponctuation guy, not the lame dice game) ? :P

Also keep in mind that Civ4's own gameplay is "a bit lightweight" compared to Fall From Heaven; FFH is a mod that has taken years to build layer upon layer of new features and complexity onto an already complicated game. I have no doubt that Elemental will surpass vanilla Civ4's complexity, and also no doubt that Elemental will have its own mods that (years from now) will match or exceed what present day FFH has done for Civ4. You never know, there could even be an FFH mod for Elemental!
