    This trailer looks really really promising, I was wondering if anyone has seen it yet. I know a place where it can be seen but I'm not sure if I can post the link since it's been illegally put out on the net.

    Yup, saw it just this morning. It's *great* to say the least.

    Why the heck don't they give off screenshots of it if it looks that fine already? I mean, there's no way they'd get a negative response from the gaming media for something like that.

    The spell-effects, animations and monsters looked so great that it really looks like a new generation RPG. That trailer just made ToEE jump clearly ahead of Lionheart in my waiting list.

    I haven't seen it yet, and if it is not allowed to post the URL here, you can always PM it to me. ;)

    No, you can't link to it publicly here, I want to keep good relations with Troika. Not to mention I'd just get asked to remove it anyway.

    And they don't give out screenshots of it yet because WoTC haven't approved them yet. Every screenshot has to be approved by WoTC and the publisher before it can go out... I don't know why it's taking them so long to do it though. Possibly WoTC had issues with something and that caused the delay...

    Is Troika or anyone else going to make a demo of the game any time soon?

    I believe that the demo will be available for download when the full game gets released.

    Is the game in 3d or is it sprite based, like the Infinity Engine?

    The game uses 3D models on pre-rendered backgrounds, so it's a combination.

    It looks like an incredibly detailed 3D though.
