Spellbreak Isn't JUST Another Battle Royale 

Literally subscribed because your the first RU-vidr who actually explained what spellbreak was in a coherent way.

Finally we have a big youtuber to show the world what spellbreak is!!

shred the gnar

This is a BR I could play

How many players can it sustain that's all that matters in a battle royal game

That has to be a balancing nightmare

Skybert It would be the same with any mmorpg combat .....

So like crowfall?

Not really. You gotta take AoE/Ease to hit into account for every single skill. You gotta fine tune classes around movement and how telegraphed skills will be. Now do that for multiple skills. For multiple classes. Now put 20 people together shooting at each other. So yeah, it's a LOT more complicated than most MMORPG combat. Which is why most try fail abysmally at balancing it.

BDO is exactly that, just has its own problems.

Just out of curiosity, have you actually played it yet?

@@PengestAsian i have but the performance is kinda dissapointing in my opinnion atm, when i started playing it it didnt feel like anything from what i have seen in the vids i watched haah might be me but ill wait a little longer till i play it more.

Thats how i feel I NEED THIS

trust me... its not that good

Same really

what is this, a dark souls spell?

what is this, a fart bender want to lift THE BOULDER?

Ok it will do 8 then!!!

@@gobzanuff5078 I got that reference.

@@technicallytruth8756 yea me too everyone else didnt though

Join the club of people who can't stand BR but want to spellsling :P

That's how I feel 2 It made me want to play Magicka Wizard Wars again

this is like fate/stay night

Very fun, even my brother who doesnt like br likes playing it

It really is, i got the key a few days ago and have been playing it. I hate typical battle royale style games, but this feels so.. different. In a really good way. Definitely suggest anyone apply for the key as I got mine rather quickly and its quite polished for only being in a pre-alpha state.

I prefer "skiddadle skidoodle"

Alakazam!

The correct term is avada kedavra.

Actually its pronounced 'LeviOsa'

Would spellbreak be on console

Is it free??

No I don’t think so..

Fortnite success I believe is largely to do with that simple fact that the game is free to the extent of playing

That's for sure

Its free

It's called cell shaded graphics style. I think it's a japanese thing. It seems really suitable and appealing when your videogame is set on anime characters. It imitates the hand-drawn art feel very well. I first saw it on PS2 with those dragon Ball z games, but not pretty much every anime game uses it.

Yes! Finally somebody noticed.

yeah i love cel shaded games. one of my fav art styles.

Ikr it's my favorite art style

First time I came accross cel shading was jet set radio for Dreamcast in 2001. Great game too. The Dreamcast was highly under rated. Not having a DVD drive and the ps2 coming out the following year spring of 2002 was it's death knell

Give it 10 years lol I'll settle with some unique PvP modes in the short term

Fevir if the devs are like DE then maybe they can repeat warframe’s miracle and join mainstream in 2-3 years. With modes like open world pvp, seiges, etc. Just like BDO but without it’s shitty devs/publishers and unnecessarily good graphics

whats the point of warframe without it's combat?

dude that'd be fucking amazing

@@fartloudYT farming? fashion? basically what it is now? warframe doesn't have an intricate combat system anyways

Chicken Nugget lolololololol

bruh

I do too I’m so sad it ended and we weirdos gotta stick together

Sameeee bitch

Chicken Nugget I hate you for this comment sm

LOL

are u still alive???? ps. i love u plz dont leave us

Nah, he is on target...

Or maybe Fevir is just "over-shilling" this game

@Fevir If you're really hyped about the "in-depth" mage combat games, aside from the two you listed in the video, you've gotta check out Lichdom: Battlemage (on Steam). I'm super hyped about Spellbreak, and I see a little bit of Lichdom's DNA in here with the left and right hand casting as well as spell combinations.

TheCoolj1212 it's the art style

Basicly everyone in the spellbreak discord xD

I was just going to post that!!

Anyone else think that's not a coincidence?

It’s mostly just the grass.

802 Garage how’d it turn out

this.

Gigantic failed because of the lack of promo and because they never optimized it. The game required large RAM, limiting the number of people who can actually play it.

@@QuickMoba Let's not forget Motiga was literally stuck in development hell, first because of microsoft forcing them the focus on Xbox and Win Store which forced Motiga to focus on getting it to work on thoose platforms. And then later getting stuck on the Arc launcher before finally coming to steam, but at that point the game was already known and most people had just lost interrest in it.

@@QuickMoba Motiga idn't get to do important things like optimization because they had to meet the requests of perfect world and Microsoft. They had nowhere else to get money so it was their only choice

Except Gigantic was unique at the cost of being good, not good because it was unique. It didn't play well, it was poorly optimized for it's entire "lifespan", and it's only big draw was that it was sort of different from other similar games.

Splitscreen and then this is godmode

Crisisadvantage eeww splitscreen

Try Elder Scrolls Online

Wilhelm Wurst couch party is godmode

STOP If you want an MMO like this there are TONS of them out there Spellbreak is actually something new.

How I can play the pre-alpha?

@@subroowka1356 they have a website and a Discord. Just Google 'Spellbreak game' It's in the videos desc

How long did it take to get accepted into alpha and how hard is it

I agree with you, my only gripe with this game. I just feel it suits itself best outside a BR

@@BudderKing4u it took me like 2 weeks to get in, however this was when less than 20k people were accepted. Before reaching the 100k took my friends like a week or so because they were giving keys fast. Now I don't know how long it would take to get the key, however if you really want to give it a try just sing up on their website and wait as I don't think it will take long.

harry potter doesent shoot ice or fire from his hand you obviously know nothing about harry potter smh

Barry Allen r/whooooosh

@@nativesky_ you're right lmao i don't know shit about harry potter

@@nativesky_ no shit

Nah it's more like The Avatar:

Already looks OP

@@syundown6005 meh, it's a swap combo. Freeze into heassnipes are more broken imo.

@@tehtehkhantengames8580 Sounds great lol

But gigantic has an amazing artstyle, other than that gameplay is just the same as the range characters, sad that there's no brawlers.

Rubix lets hope it doesnt have the same fate... i dont want another game i fell in love with to die

Exactly what I was reminded of I really hope this game has the same feeling as Gigantic...

The french discord server of spellbreak is actually managed by old gigantic fans xD i had the chance to talk with an admin, who said that thid was the first game really appealed to him after gigantic

@@DinglePinky Surely they could just add melee spells like what Wizard of Legend has plus it seems you can still use some of the ranged spells in close combat effectively.

Is it gonna be free to play, cause I'd actually rather it be paid for and know that what I'm buying into doesn't have shitty microtransactions, but I would love it to have a great community just from the gameplay standpoint

Weeb

@@maxgrzeda5065 paid games have microtransactions all the time

ScourgeTheInfernal when will the game go into beta?

ScourgeTheInfernal I am going to back this as well

totally agree. I´m a founder too but never played battle royal before.

Same story here, never touched a battle royal but here I am.

Same story here. So much potential

It already is

You're gonna be waiting awhile. Battle Royale is dead already. No one cares since rdr2 and f76. I've seen about this game maybe once? I see more about bfv. And CoD and BF are both introducing BR with their new games and no one cares. Everyone is too busy flaming Bethesda.

@@Zanenoth is this reply from 6 months in the past? f76 is hated and blackout has been praised as the most polished and great BR experience period, ONLY rivalved by fortnite and both too different to truly compare. you REALLY dont know what youre talking about...and if RDR2 doesnt get its online in check, its going to stay where it is, a single player game.

1. Online multiplayer has already been announced 2. You’re tripping if you thing fallout isn’t popular my guy

I want an xbox version

It plays better than it looks too

Agree

I started a week ago, played 4-5 games a day so far (not that much time). got killed very often but no idea how the other player do that. But you will get better by playing the game and understand how it works. I´m not a good player but getting better makes fun. Got 1 Win so far.

Well i think this game aims to the people that like skill based combat like in mobas or mmos like me, o hope it IS a high skill cealing game , like he said on the vídeo it is not aimed at battle Royale playeres

The only barrier to entry is the player's skill and their willingness to improve. The best competitive games are the ones that encourages players to dig deep and master the many different types of mechanics and secrets within the game. A perfect example of this is fighting games, where the design rewards players who are the best. Assuming the game is properly balanced around expert player skill, if Player A puts in the work and time to master their gameplay, and Player B does not, then Player A will win everytime. Games made with this philosophy in mind usually end up becoming the best games of all time. The problem with modern games like Fortnite is that they're built on pandering to the instant gratification generation, aka, the people who expect things to be handed to them without actually working for it. This mentality originated from the mobile market, where the market consisted of casual players who were given instant gratification through Skinner box design and microtransactions. Game devs failed to understand that the mobile market and gaming market are not the same, so they infested gaming with shitty mobile market practices. This explains why I never liked Battle Royale to begin with. It was a genre aimed at casuals and balanced around casual play. Randomized elements prevented the best players to win everytime, which makes combat very luck based.

There is quite a high skill ceiling but the floor isnt actually that rough. There are a lot of things in the game you can use to ease the learning transition (you'll see at some point in the video a player uses something that allows them to see player silhouettes through walls) and definitely playstyles that are much more forgiving.. cough conduit

Same

Right

Honestly same

copy the three replies that came before me

@@zylsa1168 lol, i get what you mean, i think so too!!

Its pre alpha...

Is Fortnite not mechanically intensive? Sure there's traps and such, but in Spellbreak you have abilities that can stun, freeze, trap, other players while dealing some damage over time.

DinoMight Studios not so much imo

Skyy I mean, if you actually play Spellbreak, it’s not that hard to hit someone when throwing a giant fireball at them or shooting them with blasts of air or throw giant toxic gases. I’m not the most mechanically skilled player, and this game is a lot of fun and is easy!

It looks to me like one of those easy to learn but hard to master kinda games

Fortnite is insanely more intensive? The building in fortnite alone adds an entire mechanic on top of the game, in this one you just have to be reactive and quick

Omfg I didnt think anyone else knew ab forge lol

This remind me so much of the fate anime series...They should add servants xd

Oh. Funny you mention them, I helped them as a community mod for a minute. They were located in CA outside of SD

You can't compare this to warframe because it's it's even a battle royale

The thing is this does not look appealing to the average gamer

Well it all depends on the marketing for the game for it to take off

@@marvinberry4581 It doesn´t look appealing to the average gamer ? The average gamer nowadays is 8-14 and this shit looks exactly like Fortnite only in "cool". If you present it decently and it´s not buggy and inbalanced AF it will definetly go somewhere.

You have a point

Fortnite is popular beacuse of the colors, and it easy to figure and easy to understand look, this does not look easy to play, this is a game that will need skill, skill based games will die quicker.

Sanryu lol rip

Save one paycheck, boom instant computer

@Mr BuzzKill This is the most stupid thing Ive read in a while...nowadays you have to pay easy over 1000$ to have a medium decent pc...a console costs 400$ and you dont have to buy new parts to play the latest games like you have to do when you are using a pc

Buy a console forget about pc.

@@iam_eden That's not true. You can buy a dell optiplex, and throw in a GTX 1050ti for 300 USD and have a pretty decent build. You also don't have to pay for XBox Live or PSN to play your games. PC is definitely more affordable in the long run.

Lol what just when i was reading this he said the fact about magicka

Wouldn't surprise me if they added a staff/wand special weapon within a couple of months.

Fortnite needs to get sued, lest they won't learn their lessons

@@stanley5544 With that logic, you might as well sue every game that came out after pong.

Fuck fortnite that game is a disease I am glad I didn’t fall fot😒

@@stanley5544 you think epic games consists of like 5 people or something or its a little kid who needs learn their lesson? LMAO... the game is literally free and making billions. They can do whatever the f*ck they want

no need bro its free!

Its free to play lol

All they need is to add is a floating grimoire

Hell Yeah

Do play Black Clover on the ps4 as well?

Is that anime any good?

Hello my fellow weeb brothers.

@@TuriGamer shut up weeb it will

Was thinking exactly the same thing

💀💀💀💀💀💀

It looks very similar to Zelda

Zelda looks much different and better. Not hating, I just can't see a comparison.

Do games even do full releases anymore jkjk

If it releases in early access like fortnite it can have more frequent updates

Most PC games never come to console so most likely no but it's not impossible

hakim Noriman probably but it will take at least year after release for pc

Bekolops TV lol no it is releasing on console and switch

Joe Black it is lol

@@camg5774 you need a new hair style 🤣

They might take the system and make a single player game.

Seijin dude, stop complaining, this is the current game mode and it’s still in pre alpha

Ofcourse it is... why would they release on mobile or nintendo...

@@chrisfaber8072 well i meant i hope its on xbox ps4 anf pc all together

@@connor964 its only going to be on pc, it'd play like aids on console

@@buckfutters wait how do you know that its only for pc?id probably play bettet on pc but why not console could be interesting

@@chrisfaber8072 I would want it on the switch it would be fun to play this on the go

Fortnite is cultural.. at least in it's success. It's not about competing or beating fornite - it's just being able to grab an engaged audience

Dihan Islam hell yeah

Dihan Islam slapping broly

Oh yeah yeah

Nani?! I would buy it 100% sure

thats exactly what i thought lol

I love Cuisine Royale due to it feeling actually good aiming and movement wise.

@Captain Twice unless your packing a gtx 970 or higher your gonna be getting shity frames right now anyway so no rush

Thats what i was thinking but im pretty sure we wont get it...

Lol. Nope.

Same. We can only hope so. Most games don't even care about the console players.

@@supremacyeverything6988 get a pc and slap on a controller I know alot of people that do this

Looks like too many things to fit on a controller, just get a pc

thats what i love because botw's artstyle is amazing

I want to know too, but i wouldn't mind paying for this game.

They haven't decided yet

no details yet, I hope for their sake it is

Bharavi Garlapati id buy it for sure

Is it gonna be released on steam or will it be on another store?
