Anyone playing Dark Side?

Hi everyone, I know its been since crosswords that Ive been around, but this place is really quiet about this game, 1C even more so. Why no dedicated forum for Darkside? No Mod forum? No comments in here at all on it from 1C?

Personally I find the game very entertaining, I skipped kings of the north, but I like this option of playing the dark side

Ive made a few small mods for it like all skills for all classes, but there is no forum for posting anything. Anyway just wondering where all the players are at.

I think people just got tired of the many-many ways 1C wants to "skin" the first game anew again and again instead of making a new one.
Unfortunately, since Warriors of the North, the quality has been in steady decline, the last two games were released in basically beta/alpha stage. I loved Legend/AP/Crossworlds, but never finished either of the new games - they were frustratingly bad.

Yes Im sure that is true, but dark side is still very fun, I haven't hit any bugs yet (premium edition) Maybe its because I skipped kings of the north and only ever played crossworlds that it doesn't bother me.

Personally I find it funner then crossworlds, but then I love the idea of playing the dark side.

I have started Darkside recently, and i like it. Didnt rush to play at release tough since most games are bad broken at release nowadays. Wariors of the north were indeed massive fail. It was just fkin copy and paste from legend. + ttey made it too long so it become boring.( game can be long, but now with such terrble copy and paste) Finshed it once and never goonna touvch it again. When i was playin one of basic valkyrie skil wasnt even working ..

Is there an editor for Dark Side? Or at least a way to make it work with the CW one? I tried moving the files and editing some things in the .ini but no luck..

I never bought Dark Side since i read so many complaints about the game, Another reason was that I made a huge mod/ expansion for crossworlds, and just got tired of kb for a time cuz I made over 100 hours of testplay the mod and solve the bugs.
And surely it was to late for that mod, seems like a lot of people disappered from this forum to other games, tired of how the new devs handles this game and just trying to milk out more Money from a great Product.

Dagmar - you should be able to use the editor from crossworlds for the game if you want to edit some stuff.
Move the editor to Dark side directory and then open up what u want to do

You have to find the maps to get to them (Ive been to all of the Islands and have them all open) I can't tell you where I found the maps that open those islands at as the game is so big I lose track of where I find everything, but they are there, you just have to find them.

I think the reason few have bought the game is they're waiting for it to go on sale. I'm pretty sure that's the reason.

Since so little is written of this game so far, they're afraid to buy at full price.

The game is a lot of fun and requires a different mindset than the others. The only problem for potential customers is the Vampire, the one I bet most will want to play. Getting him through the early going is a trial and a half while the Demoness is easy(but still fun) on Normal. After Portland is yours, she gets awesome mages and Heretiarchs(Dark Inquisitors that resurrect evil creatures).

I've stated why the Vampire is hard to play in another thread, but that makes it fun in that way.
