Hold me, Sup Forums.
At least we still have all the actual good games made by 3DO.
Man I remember the teenage me getting mad boners from Xana. I think this game needs replaying.
Didn't they somewhat recently release a new M&M game but it was cobbled together out of recycled assets from other games? I specifically remember they used the guard model from Dark Messiah.
Everyone got boners from Xana.
Even if she was never more than a voice, she'd have been great.
The only recent game I'm aware of is Might & Magic: Heroes 7.
>dm is an ancient source game
>xana already has a nude model
>no sfm porn
I don't think rule34 applies when the subject is a literal semen demon
Can you wait a year? I'm learning stuff about Blender and SFM and I want to make a Xana model from scratch, in demon form, and that's going to take me quite a while.
I've heard that her model is somewhat tricky, you can't use it for sfm right away.

Godspeed lad.

She was better than phone sex.

sry buddy, dark messiah doesn't have the best first person melee combat
...
I love Dark Messiah. I play through it annually.
However, that being said, I think people are grossly overappreciating the melee combat in the game. Sure, it's really really good, but there are titles that easily beat it in terms of complexity and mechanics.
It will even take you more a while when you realise blender is useless for modelling organic characters and you need legitimate artist skill to do more than modelling tanks from 3 reference pics
Latest games where absolute shit. For me its dead since heroes6. Well, mmx was fun, despite being cheap and lazy

>the buggy mess of a game where everyone dances like a ballerina
>"B-B-Buh it's a feature, g-g-git gud!"
The only games on par with Dark Messiah are Mountain Blade and Jedi Outcast/Academy. Chivalry is slow and boring and what I remember about Condemned is that it's mostly parrying and whacking.
The Might and Magic franchise sure as fuck isn't about dark Messiah kid
If you know some other program that could work well with being ported into SFM, I'm all ears, user.
Thanks.
When I do finally make her, I just plan on making POV stuff, with her and Sareth.
At least hits have impact in those games as opposed to Dark Messiah, where enemies will only react if you have a charged attack. Of course, Dark Messiah is also completely broken thanks to the kick feature.
>post picture from the old M&M RPGs
>thread 404's before 10 replies
Dark Messiah is all about using charged attacks to hit at the right time. If you just spam or use light attacks they parry and fuck you up.
Except they don't parry. Enemies simpy don't react to your hits, even though their HP is reduced by those light attacks.
This is why it's inferior to other first person melee combat games, where all hits have an impact.
I used to fap to the idea of Xana wrestling me to the ground and having sex with me. I think she made me develop a femdom fetish.
>Except they don't parry. Enemies simpy don't react to your hits, even though their HP is reduced by those light attacks.
They do parry light attacks matey. What difficulty did you play on? You really shouldn't be able to kill everything just by spamming light attack.
Come one now, the might and magic series is not some magnum opus that can´t be replaced.
They even restarted the lore twice.

Saying that its soon going to be forgotten is like saying that Ultima is forgotten by EA
I recently played through it again. I was having a good time and at the same time was bummed out because I knew nobody would make a good sequel to it.
It's been downhill from here
7 is better
>You really shouldn't be able to kill everything just by spamming light attack.
Exactly, the light attack in dark messiah is awful. It lacks any and all weight and momentum to it and looks like you are brushing a feather against your enemies. Good melee combat games have their light attack be faster than their heavy attack, but slow enough to look like there is weight to it and makes them useful by allowing you to hitstop your enemies with it. Not always though, as that would be imbalanced, such as when an enemy's charged attack is already swinging.
Might and Magic X a year or so back
>Forgetting about Chronicles of Riddick
Its even older than Dark Messiah too yet it looks, sounds, and feels better.
Dark Messiah is the better game though.
>wRPGs
I couldn't honestly give less of a fuck
This is now a Might & Magic series thread.
...

Okay that's good to know user that's really a piece of information i couldn't live without and everyone most definetly cares about your sexual kinks.
...
I will wait for that user.
I will wait.
To sell the license to M&M allows someone else to make profit. And if another company is making profit, then that company can grow and may take a portion of ubisoft's market.
X was so lazy. So many of the assets came straight from Heroes V.
That's because Ubisoft outright refused to greenlight M&M X at first, so the devs put up a working prototype made out of assets from the previous games and showed it to them and they said fuck it, and released it.
