Tales of the Drunken Paladin: HOBOTROPOLIS

So is this a half joke - half serious RPG?

I guess that's one way to look at it.

The game was created for comedic purposes entirely, but as time went on the characters became developed and more human, which lends to moments of gravity. It is also very serious with regards to the nature of its craft; it is a very, very detailed and multifaceted game in any context, and so people who expect to play a "joke game" tend to be taken aback by the level of complexity.

Update: Patch 1.5 is uploaded, and is the latest and potentially final patch for the game until the first expansion is released (fingers crossed).

Thanks to everyone who's played and enjoyed TDP III (which now has over 2,000 downloads total!)

1.5.1 released.

Thanks, folks!

I just wanted to pop by and announce two exciting things:

1. Tales of the Drunken Paladin: Book III won the 2009 "Game of the Year" and "Funniest Game" awards from rpgmakervx.net



If you haven't played the game yet, now is literally THE best time to do so, because not only has the game been improved substantially from its earliest incarnations, but also...

2. Big Trouble in Little China, Maine, the first expansion, is officially due May 1st, in just over a week, and adds several hours of gameplay onto the end of Tales of the Drunken Paladin.

This game is the funniest thing I have played in a long time.

I could have sworn there were other posts in this thread that are now gone.   

Just wanted to announce (if I can) that the latest patch, V.1.1.4, is now available.

EDIT: Haha, the expansion post is gone. Maybe... I'll come back later. XD

lol, yeah sorry about that. The update to the new SMF 2.0 took us back several days, so a lot of people lost a lot of the last couple posts.

Hey folks, I'm having a poll for the game's difficulty. So if you've played, and want to toss in your two cents, vote here.

Whoops!

I have not been looking after my rpgmaker threads! Tales of the Drunken Paladin: Hobotropolis is released (a month ago) and adds over 10 hours of gameplay to the already-impressive 20-25 hours from the first two portions of the game!

I added a couple of new screenshots to the first post, so y'all should check them out. I think you might like this game!
