Nameless - One Orc's Saga is a single player campaign RPG that I have been developing for quite a while now. It is designed to be similar to the Frozen Throne Orc campaign - easy to jump into and play. It does not utilize extremely complicated systems, but still uses unique elements.

This campaign includes two maps at the moment - a Prologue and Chapter I. Together they constitute about 3 hours of gameplay.

You play as Nameless - an orc who awakens in a dungeon with no memory of his past or who he is. After befriending a fellow prisoner, the two fight their captors and work to escape into the wild.

FEATURES
-Guide Nameless and his allies through a dungeon and the wild.
-Utilize unique spells and abilities, all of which are, to some extent, trigger-based - none of them are clones of existing abilities
-Fight dynamic bosses - they don't just sit there and autoattack!
-Join up with up to three other heroes along the way, for a total party of up to 4 completely unique and new units.
-A weapons and armor system
-Unique items
-A developing storyline and engrossing world

By the end of the Prologue, you will control two heroes, Nameless and Sigismund. By the end of Chapter I, you will have a choice of up to 5 heroes. Your party can contain a maximum of 4, so choose wisely.

As mentioned under Features, none of the abilities used by your Heroes are clones of existing abilities. For example:

Nameless' Abilities:
Not-So-Trivial Pursuit: The Nameless Heroes moves so fast between two points. The action occurs so fast that it seems to take place instantaneously. All enemies within a small radius of the Hero's starting an ending positions take damage and are stunned.

Inner Focus: The Hero enters a state of extreme focus. While activated, the Nameless Hero gains a chance to dodge attacks and deal extra damage with each melee strike. Drains mana until deactivated.

Nerves of Steel (passive): Increases the Hero's life regeneration rate and reduces the damage he takes from enemy spells.

Sundering Maelstrom: The Hero strikes at nearby targets for a short period of time, dealing damage each second and reducing their armor.


Sigismund:
Divine Anointment: The Templar appeals to the Heavens to aid a single ally. The target is healed and gains an armor bonus for a short period of time.

Crusader's Benediction (passive): The Templar's attacks are imbued with the Heavens' favor. Each melee strike restores mana to the Templar and his nearby allies. Undead attacked in this manner take extra damage.

Penance: Can be cast on an ally or enemy. The target recovers a significant amount of health over a short period of time, but cannot attack, move, or cast spells for the duration of the spell.

Aegis of the Archangel: An Archangel descends to aid the hero and his allies. Nearby enemies are forced to attack the Templar, and each melee attack made against the Templar is reduced by X. The reduced damage is reflected back to the attacker.

Please note that all of these features and spells are IN THE CAMPAIGN and FULLY PLAYABLE. Future chapters will include more hero options, different environments, and more items. Each future chapter will also be 256x256 in size, and perhaps larger.

I think you level up very slowly and it is not rewarding enought.
and items are weak.
There's few thing to boost your characters.

Too bad Rao, you gotta move! He's actually pretty easy if you know the strategy.

I did move, but we just didn't regenerate enough mana to get enough health back to deal with those constant slimes.

I thought this thread had been eaten by the forum, but I guess there's a posting delay.

Anyway, there have been several updates to this campaign. Both the Prologue and Chapter 1 now have more items that drop from various destructibles and units. Chapter 1 also has a Rez system (similar to the Frozen Throne Orc campaign resurrection stones).

Also, this campaign is on The HiveWorkshop, and has been uploaded there. That page has a comprehensive list of the update changes, and comments by people who have played it.

Just as I get through half way of Chapter one TT.
I like this campaign as well but I think the cinematic dialogue could move a little bit faster.
