ANVIL
Steam

Your story takes place in the 12th century, you play as a former soldier in a realistic and open world, you will help the villagers around you. ANVIL can be played in the first view and the third view according to your choice. You will have the choice of 2 distinct classes; the order of the temple or Viking descendants. You will have to make reign order and justice for honor your God, that will allow you to obtain the trust of citizens so as to create solid relations with them. Your destinies will intersect and it will be yours to write the story for eternity.
ANVIL will gradually obtain new updates. All traditional features will be implemented, like cooking, fishing, make restoratives via herbalist system from plants with harvest, learn new professions like blacksmith, farmer, tamer for example. The PVE fighting system will be advanced with crucial choice of builds and weapons. Many builds and medieval weapons are planned (like flail 1/2 hands, spear, hammer, longsword and more) About the quests system you will find 2 main lines, the first will be the main story and the second will be the secondary quests. The follower system will also be advanced too, you will be able via a relation system to create strong relations with NPCs which can go as far as creating a couple. You can find the karma system in ANVIL, very important feature, if you get bad karma with bad deeds (like killing innocent people, robbing goods...) you will be heavily penalized to the point you won't be able to finish the game. All of this and more will appear over time, which is why the game is currently in early access.
