Those Who Rule - eBrothers LLC - Fire Emblem Inspired Tactical Turn Based RPG (Demo Available!)

Steam | Trailer | Twitter | Q4 2024 (Steam)

Hey r/Games! Those Who Rule has launched a brand new demo spanning the first 4 chapters of the game, and I'm excited to finally share it with this community. It builds off of a lot of familiar mechanics from the Fire Emblem games of old, and adds new twists to the formula.

* Fully customizable abilities: Characters start simple, but as they level up they gain a slew of abilities, up to a max of 15 (1 personal, 6 class, and 8 weapon/item). Your characters will grow from base -> advanced -> elite classes where you will get to choose between 3 new classes on each promotion, with each giving new weapon expertise, stats, and a passive and active ability. Class changes are the next thing being focused on in the November/December updates.
* Increased tactical options: With the introduction of a hex grid comes many tactical implications. Having 6 tiles around each unit, you can now flank and backstab enemies for better hit rates, damage, and special effects depending on your class/abilities. With this also comes zone of control mechanics to limit enemy movement, as they will look to do the same to you. The increased focus on abilities makes it so you can manipulate the battlefield by changing the position and inflicting status effects on enemies to negate their strengths to let your own units shine. With "elite" enemies being planned in future chapters, you'll need to utilize your full arsenal to make it through later maps.
* A low fantasy settings: Something I always loved about the genre, especially games like Tactics Ogre and FFT, was the more serious tone of the story, and I hope to incorporate that here. While not taking itself too seriously, the plot line drops the classic notion of good vs evil, and puts you in a low-fantasy setting where you'll have to decide between power and moral standards.




Thanks for taking the time to read this and I'd love to answer any questions you may have. The release date is still pending due to, admittedly, scope creep and wanting to implement as much player feedback as possible, but I am aiming for late Q4 of 2024. Cheers, and I hope you enjoy your time with the demo! submitted by /u/ThoseWhoRule
