Demonicon - The Dark Eye
Just wanted to give everyone a head's up that this game is pretty broken in 3D. The shadows are a mess and there is a halo double image around the character. I already tried the profiles for Prototype and others for this game. What a shame as I enjoyed Drakensang and wanted to play another Dark Eye game in 3D.

I hadn't heard about this game before, however it looks interesting from the trailers i've seen. I tried Drakensang recently but it's aged badly, even in 3d, but I heard the games were good, so I hope this gets fixed too, there are never enough RPGs to play in 3d :)

Drakensang 1 and The river Of Time are really good RPG, and look good in 3D. Must have IMO. I'm not sure about this Demonicon, since it has not been developped by the same studio.

It's more of an ARPG than the others were. Early feedback I have read, since I haven't got to play it much yet, is that it is fun to play despite the dated visuals in the game. It uses the same engine as Arcania:Gothic 4. That game had broken 3D and it appears this game has the same issues that one did. One of the people that frequents this forum, and I apologize because I can't remember right off hand, fixed many of the issues for that game. At some point shortly at release the devs for Arcania patch the game to make it 3D ready and it rendered the Helixmod fix unnecessary. I don't think the devs for this team will do that. I already posted a thread on their forums and they said it wasn't really supported. http://forum.kalypsomedia.com/showthread.php?tid=20250

It probably depends on whomever did gothic iv feels like doing it again. Probably an enthusiast who did it in free time. Generally what happens with indies. They often happen year(s) later.... problem is there no incentive since nvidia never updates ratings.

Sorry, I should have been more specific. I believe it was Helifax who made a Helixmod fix for the game at launch that fixed many of the issues: http://forum.nordicgames.at/showthread.php?173965-ArcaniA-3D-Vision-Friendly-Patch The devs released an official patch a short time later where they fixed the issues directly in the game assets. I am not sure what is different from the version of the Unity engine that Demonicon uses to what Arcania used so I don't know if the fixes are the same. The patch that Helifax made was on Megaupload so it's basically not obtainable.
