Tropico 3 Dev's Action Title, The First Templar, Revealed

Ever wanted to play as a "noble lady" who's been proclaimed as a heretic in an action adventure title? Haemimont Games hopes that's high on our bucket list. The minds behind Tropico 3 and Grand Ages Rome have been revealed as the developer behind the newly announced The First Templar, an action title with a cooperative twist and no cover system to speak of (yet).

Got several friends absolutely addicted to the Tropico game series. Might have to check it out.

Shrubberies: check.

Lol @ Last Templar in title.

remember the last Templar action game?
ya, it failed so hard.
 at least that dude had a great helm on. I would not want to play as a rubberface.

"Lol @ Last Templar in title. "

If I get a quest revolving around chopping down a tree with a herring. I would only be mildly surprised.

 The New Testament: Total Warrior

I don't know why, but it reminds me of The Wheel of Time.
And that's a good thing.

Interesting, "historically accurate," eh? That could be...kinda awesome, if they do it right.

Even the visual style looks retro!

How dare they! Completely ripping off the next call of duty game, CoD: Medieval Warfare
Shame on them..

"  The New Testament: Total Warrior "

gooooodmooorrrrrrrrniiiiiiiiiinnnngggg TROPICOOOOOOO i am JUANITOOOOOOOOOO

Wait a second, which side had Cave Giants in the Crusades?

I pray for steam achievements .

This looks really good. Haemimont has made some good RTSs over their time as big shot developers, and not to speak of Tropico 3. I'm really excited. This might be worth looking more into.

If for some strange reason there was that radio dude in this game it would be day 1 buy for me but I doublt it so wait and see how it turns out. "

Im excited about the drop in drop out multiplayer part. I love me some good button mashy coop action rpgs.

Could be interesting, unless they announce that the Noble Lady is actually a magician or something stupid.

Yes, it would be worth buying the game just so i could stab him multiple times. Preferably in the face. Or the throat. Whatever causes him to shut up faster. "

Noble lady? I'm obviously missing something - I only see two grizzly bearded men. Wait... eww...

I got Tropico 3 when it was 75% off on Steam.  I should actually go play it some time, I liked the demo of it.

Looks kinda cool, not diggin' the health bars though.
