1191 AD. it's the last year of the last crusade. you a knight,sent to the holy land to conquer it !


Author's Note: being a game about big politics and wars I wanted to first and foremost explore the PHYCHE,, of a typical crusader being sent from different countries in europe in this era. like how was it REALLY like, u know...like the PSYCHOLOGY of it all... inspired by movies like 'El Cid', 'kingdom of heaven' but also with a twist of the story of don quixote I hope maybe with some darksouls elements thrown into it..haha exploring his/their doubts, beliefs, hope, frustration, thoughts, values and so on, more like a journey into their very minds, their inner world more than the raging wars and world around them... you will question your loyalty in this game and to whom will you end the end swear your allegiance to? Christianity? money? power? land? islam? your choices will be many so is your challenges ahead brave crusader! will you lose all hope in the holy land and succumb underway more mentally than physically or will all of this just make you stronger than ever? will you question your orders or blindly follow them? blindly follow your Catholic faith or challenge it honestly? how will you deal with the locals? kill them? befriend them? stay away? marry a local or go back home and marry? or stay single? will you be an evil murder machine or be decent? will you forge alliances or stay out of it all? yeah I really hope and plan to make this a great game, a game of self discovery more than anything else actually mixed with all the other elements of history and reality of the times. and maybe also take on the huge question why the western world vs the Islamic world... (THIS IS LIKE A LONG TIME PROJECT THAT MAY NEVER BE, BUT MY PLAN IS TO MAKE IT COME TRUE, ITS JUST A TEASER AND LONG TERM VISION FOR THE FUTURE, A HUGE PROJECT I FEEL, IF NOT FEEL FREE TO "STEAL " MY IDEAS (it's not like I have any copyrights anyway, lol) IF I CAN'T MAKE IT SOONER THAN I PLAN TO FINISH IT SOMETIME MAYBE AROUND SEPTEMBER 2025...) as always thank u for YER time, have a good one.
