Skaven game made by Bretons ? interesting
meh…
I'm allergic to this kind of messaging. A dunkey-style take from a Skavenhead or something like Penny Arcade's First 15 would probably land for me.
Game looks sick tho.
Too bad my dream of vitnessing a scene where you apporach a bartender, he gets shanked, and the guy who killed him proceeds to serve you as normal will go unrealized, but I guess asking for a Skaven game was already a tall order.
3:05? Miiliions? 😂😂
IDK why, but I thought that it was made by some small indie studio 1-10 devs max, thus got my attention. Seeing it is done by 70+ studio worries me, especially about the final price of the game.
oh right y'all made mark of the ninja: warhammer
Jesus so much chatting. That is not how you make an interesting trailer. Just show some more gameplay and keep the chatting to a minimum. Everbody knows how 2D action-adventures works
Mark of the skaven? sold
You know what's intriguing???
Deathmaster Snikch or anyone, with gameplay like Dishonored
Sigmar male
Much-much need-want !! Yes-yess !!
This is my most anticipated game of 2027. Getting to play as a skaven in that gritty, brutal world? Say no more. Take all of my warpstone, yes-yes.
why do i feel they are just reading somekind of script?
Mark of the Ninja-Skaven. Absolutely perfect blend. Love it.
Subtitles: On
This is the warhammer game ive wanted for a long time. I pictured it in a 3D environment and would play more like Shadow of Mordor but this is close enough.
"the first time in a Warhammer video game you aren't facing the Skaven you are them" I am sorry Mark of the Ninja guy this was not the first time you can play as Skaven…probably the first time you play as A Skaven, a lone Skaven, then I guess this is the first yes.
I don't care if it's AoS, I want this. We need more games from Skaven PoV. And stealth is one of my favorite genres. I will be all over this like stink on a Skaven.
Did I miss deathmaster IV
To the people who don't like AoS, I understand. I think Games Workshop probably isn't giving them a choice, though.
How exactly does this game visually differentiate Age of Sigmar and Warhammer Fantasy? I see many things that look 100% Warhammer Fantasy coded with nothing original added from Age of Sigmar. Yet it is marketed as an Age of Sigmar game. Why?
Not interested in any narrative explanation.
Only interested in the visual language.
Don't get me wrong, it's very intriguing, beautiful and all. I'm just super-confused about the misleading game plaquette. It's fine if you want to do a Warhammer Fantasy game. But calling it an Age of Sigmar game doesn't really help anybody.
It must feel terribly like living on a borrowed lie.
And what does this say about the Age of Sigmar brand?
The more I hear about this game, the better it sounds.
a skavenslave? somehow ranking up in skavendome?
When I saw the first trailer for this I said to myself this looks like Mark of the Ninja in Warhammer. Now seeing the lead from Mark of the Ninja is working on this I'm 100% sold.
Yes
Yes please!
I love the skavens, but the fact that the game will be about the AOS universe just puts me off playing it. It's sad.
take my money!!!!
plz i need to see more
lol not the first time your playing as Slaven
Mark of the Skaven
Chosing AoS as the setting was dumb as all hell.
I was already sold by the concept alone, but it keeps looking better and better
ill be pretending this is an old world/warhammer fantasy game but it looks fun
GIVE GAME MAN THINGS, HURRY NOW NOW
2027 is so far away 😢
My childhood playing Final Ninja has prepped me well I hope. Can't wait
Hâte de testé
Oh hey, actual Mark of the Ninja devs involved in this! Some pedigree to work with.
im so ready
AoS is an insult to all people who made Warhammer what it is ( or was ). But I hope for those people who like this abobmination that it will be a fun game
Age of Sigmar has potential for lots of games
I loved Mark of the Ninja. I'm going to love Deathmaster. But, when the guy described the Skaven player character as a predator, I realized that this game format would probably be perfect for an actual Predator game. One can dream…
Playing as skaven is always a treat
So basically Mark of The Ninja in Warhammer? Sold.
….I am horrible on stealth games lool
