    [​IMG]An interview about Age of Decadence with Iron Tower's Vince D. Weller can be found at ePressDeck, which answers amongst others the question what a CRPG is.

    EPressDesk: On your website your game, Age of Decadence, is described as a CRPG style game. Can you tell me a little bit about what that means and what sort of games you can compare it to?

    Iron Tower: The way I see it, role-playing games are about using your character's skills, abilities, and knowledge (as opposed to your own) and being able to make decisions fitting your character (as opposed to following a linear storyline with little or no input).

    Basically, a true role-playing game is *your* adventure set within a flexible story arc that supports different decisions and offers different paths and outcomes. You decide what to do and how to do it, and your actions affect the story and alter your options, creating a different experience with each replay.

    I don't think I can compare it to anything because it's sort of a 'one of a kind' game now. I'm not sure if it's good - in fact, I suspect that it's not - but what's done is done. So, if you feel like playing something different tonight, download the demo (283 MB) and see for yourself.​
