    So, when I was checking out games on a few sites I came across this gem called Age of Decadence.
    I liked how the people of the company only took pre-orders after they had given us a taste of what the game will be like and from what I can say the 2 demos are nice.

    COMBAT

    The combat is a bit comparable to Fallout/Fallout 2 due to the AP but didn't do too much combat due to the class I chose.

    DIALOGUE
    I liked how the enemy didn't forget what you said to them.
    Example: go to guard.
    1 ask for acces
    2 [disguise] you dare stand in front of a nobleman?
    [fail] bla bla.
    Then you choose the other option and (if not slain by then for lying) he says: I decide who gets to see bla bla and your lying didn't increase your chances.
    Or you get in the place trough another door and when you try to handle when caught by trying to lower the fee they just kill you for it.

    DETAILS
    The game is pretty detailed even now with traps here and different deaths here.
    One of my favorites was when I failed to trade with someone and the ending was something like this:
    You are still alive when they dump your body and you pray the gods that it will be over fast, but seems like they are too busy and your wish gets granted hours later.
    So the games depth/detail is pretty good.(if I'm right each preset class also has a different start)

    So yeah, you can at least bother checking it out.

    So it is a RPG? It certainly sounds intresting from how you and the developers alike, describe it. The graphical style is okay as well in my opinion.

    What is the purpose of the game? Is it some sort of open world sandbox type of game? Story driven?

    The demo doesn't feature lots of places but I think it will be like a sandbox game, as you have side missions (favors for people etc) and main missions.
    As I only played as a thief in the game I don't know if they all push towards one big picture or that there are minor changes in the game.
    If you think my description isn't good you should check the demo, you might like it.
    And if you DO check it out I'll just say 1 thing: pick your beginner class carefully.
    As a thief might have advantages when dealing with his own kind and an assassin with his/hers etc etc.

    The game has been in development for quite a while, a few years actually. I think I tried the demo two years ago or something. I am keeping my tabs on it simply because it has Fallout 1-2 feel to it in terms of AP and items.
