Rewards skilful play and encourages to aim for it. Even makes the gunplay more strategic. Most FPS games compared to Witchfire is like comparing CoD gun play to Hunt Showdown gunplay: one is just spray and aim (every gun feels also same and very unrewarding) and other is about getting those headshots with correct gun and knowing how each gun handles in different distances and getting that kill in a fight feels so damn satisfying.
This overview of the Hunger gun literally shows us a damage bonus lol... Maybe you meant to say that the playstyle affects the guns' strength, which is what the weapons needed
THE ONLY PROBLEM IS IF THEY DONT HAVE FASTER ENEMIES THAT WOULD MAKE THE AIMING HARDER, IF THEYRE JUST STANDING THERE WAITING TO BE HEADSHOTTED, WHATS THE POINT.
That’s actually pretty cool! The game rewards you for your effective gunplay, kinda reminds me to Gears of War's active reload, glad there are finally more games doing that kind of stuff
What do you mean by finally? Those are people behind such classics as the Painkiller and Bulletstorm. Those are both highly regarded FPS games with true personality and fantastic FPS mechanics.
I’ve been trying to think of darkwatchs name for the past couple months! Thank you! We could really use a remake. One of the best games of my childhood
Doom meets Destiny vibes. These look like Fallen from Destiny, the playstyle feels very Doom-esque, and even the headshot animation from the pistol (which looks like a Vault of Glass drop) is the animation for headshot kills on the Fallen and others in Destiny.
The weapon system reminds me of the perks system in destiny 2, especially the perks on the Ace of Spades hand cannon Memento Mori : reloading after a kill will get 6 bullets with additional extra dmg
seems like after RPGS like Witcher, Cyberpunk and Dying Light, Poland is producting strong FPS titles starting with Painkiller and Mortyr through Shadow Warrior, Sniper and this among other latest titles
Don't forget about The Farm 51 which made Necrovision, Painkiller Hell and Damnation, Chernobylite and World War 3, and Techland which made Call of Juarez, Dead Island and Dying Light ;)
Finally some more gameplay of Witchfire! Can't wait for this to come out as it looked solid from the start. Not sure about that EA though hopefully it won't stay that way like 95% of Early Access games.
Like a wand, a gun is but a tool, a focusing point for the wielder. Should that wielder be more than human, well...then the focus becomes all the more important.
not bad, it reminds me of the gunplay from destiny mix with the one from doom, hell 1:35 it even looks like that when a warlock throws a grenade and even the ability looks like the warlock's solar melee
Watched this and was excited. Went to steam to wishlist and didn't see it. Found out its an Epic exclusive, oh well looks like I'm not going to be playing anytime soon.
This is the kind of strategic adjustments weapons need, no cheap +damage or whatever, provides some uniqueness to it.

@@wallysmart2432 it was a demonstration you hobbit
@@absence9443 He actually thought they would be just standing there 🤣
so happy to see classic FPS games are making a serious comeback
@@samantha_t99 the roguelike addition is actually enticing. To me. To each their own!
As serious as Sam
Barely a comeback
@@samantha_t99 that makes it 3x more enticing
@@samantha_t99 how do you know it is roguelike?
This looks like one of those games where you really struggle in the beginning but by the end you are living a badass power fantasy

Destiny has been doing the same thing for a long time as well.
The game Synthetik has some of my favorite weapon handling mechanics ever.
@@brandondennis7527 Counter argument, it's Destiny, terrible game
more FPS games like this pls! Finally developers are adding some personality and creativity to this genre 👍

@@boskee Ummm. Both of those games are really old.
@@JustinLesamiz OK?
@@boskee Yea, but they also made Outriders. Make of that what you will...
@@MyZ001 They didn't, they made The Vanishing of Ethan Carter which is a Fantastic Video Game
I’ll definitely be buying this when it inevitably comes to Steam
Same
Might be the whole year, and I’m gonna wait
If the game doesn't have a workshop there's no point waiting for Steam
@@kapitankapital6580 why does the workshop matter? I’m not buying games on the dogshit Epic games platform
@@Liam11433 it's literally identical to Steam except it doesn't have proper mod support.
This is literally Darkwatch's spiritual successor. I'm all FOR IT!
That game NEEDS a Remaster or a remake!
Damn that was a cool game, and one of the best hand cannons of all time.
Except it's not "literally"..... But we getcha
I’ve been trying to think of darkwatchs name for the past couple months! Thank you! We could really use a remake. One of the best games of my childhood
@@SuperLarrythompson Careful, his brain may explode.
Wish more games had trailers like this. Explain what mechanics are unique and/or spotlight your game.
Looks great, will be enjoying this when it actually comes out on Steam.
Time and time again these games are forever in ignore status until a steam launch is announced. FPS rougelites ain't exactly a starved market atm.
@@tastefulavenger what others are there?

Not even close. Did we watch the same video
Witchfire is from the creators of Painkiller. Main inspiration.
Destiny players when a shooter game has guns and movement 😮😲
So correct, wow couldn't describe this better than this
dope af, hope to put at least 50 hours in this, thanks ign and adrian
your welcome
@Adrian Arneson They were talking to me.
And when it's 49 hours long?
@@munchiesNcrunchies You're welcome.
@@munchiesNcrunchies what a helpful lad you are
Happy to see old school Arena FPS games making a return
The weapons having their own unique ability enhancements based on if you score critical hits is a super cool idea.
this actually looks fire it's like destiny weapon mods meet doom
Two of the best shooters in recent years collide, sounds perfect to me. Destiny gunplay is some of the best ever made, same goes for Doom Eternal.
@@Jake-0011 putting it that way really intrigues me trying it out, especially if it's just a straight story like how doom is
And thus, the new era of "Doom Clones" has begun
Why does this feel like what Wonderlands needed to be?
Heavy duty painkiller vibes from this one
Waiting for this game for about 3 years now, glad it is near its early access.
This game is giving me the old Painkiller vibes. Awesome!!!!
This looks amazing. Ill pick it up on steam or PlayStation if it's released for either.
Please come to consoles!
Withfire is the Hellraid we never got years ago, but amplified for the new generation
The weapon system reminds me of the perks system in destiny 2, especially the perks on the Ace of Spades hand cannon Memento Mori : reloading after a kill will get 6 bullets with additional extra dmg
Witchfire looks and feels like a Vermintide 2 Successor.
Yes, its a legendary/exotic/unique/ancient/godly item, no doubt highlighted in some sort of yellow or earthy brown/orange.
I've been waiting YEARS to see more about this game after the first reveal ages ago! I'm so pumped seeing what you guys have come up with.
please have an option to turn on damage numbers please!!
This looks great, nothing better than a FPS with punchy satisfying gunplay. Hopefully there's some great enemy's and level design to go with it.
This looks fantastic. Love seeing the insight from the creative director, more of this please!
the creative director sounds like Gustavo
why when you ads it is not centered its on the lower half of screen
This looks awesome! To the wishlist it goes!
seems like after RPGS like Witcher, Cyberpunk and Dying Light, Poland is producting strong FPS titles starting with Painkiller and Mortyr through Shadow Warrior, Sniper and this among other latest titles
When it comes to steam?
After all the bugs have been fixed
This looks like a solid "wait for it on Game Pass" title.
man, I've been looking forward to this for, literally, years
People Can Fly, Flying Wild Hog, and now The Astronauts. Polish developers know how to make creative over the top shooters.
Don't forget about The Farm 51 which made Necrovision, Painkiller Hell and Damnation, Chernobylite and World War 3, and Techland which made Call of Juarez, Dead Island and Dying Light ;)
Sounds like it really encourages skill based play. Hype.
why is the crosshair and ads not centered?
This looks so cool! Love the concept.
I'm definitely interested in this game.
is this game able to be wishlisted on steam yet?
Finally some more gameplay of Witchfire! Can't wait for this to come out as it looked solid from the start. Not sure about that EA though hopefully it won't stay that way like 95% of Early Access games.
woah, you're here, can't wait to test my a770 on witchfire ;)
Painkiller: Darkwatch edition
Yes, I'll be playing this with High By Fire as the soundtrack.
Looks waaay better than the last showcase from a few months ago, where it looked like a destiny like looter shooter with damage numbers flying up etc!
Hate to break it to you mate Borderlands 3 done that years ago
Like a wand, a gun is but a tool, a focusing point for the wielder. Should that wielder be more than human, well...then the focus becomes all the more important.
This does look like Metal Hellsinger but without the music
Adrian Chmielarz is total icon of polish gamedev. Hearing his voice is like lotion to my heart.
He maybe was years ago. Now clown from Twitter is more like it.
This game is going to be awesome.
Reminds me of Darkwatch on PS2. Been waiting for a similar game for while, WitchFire might just be it.
Darkwatch vibes!
Shadow Warrior 3 differences?
We need more fantasy games like this.
fantasy cyberpunk
Doom Guy: "So that's how my ancestors did it."
we have blood punch as well as a falter system, nice
cant find it on steam to wishlist?
This game is really starting to take shape. And it looks like it's cooking nicely in the development oven.
this game literally breathes DarkWatch on the Playstation 2, looking forward to it.
not bad, it reminds me of the gunplay from destiny mix with the one from doom, hell 1:35 it even looks like that when a warlock throws a grenade and even the ability looks like the warlock's solar melee
Will this be on steam?
Tried to wishlist but it's not on steam?
Launching early access? It looks great Sign….can you just finished it, and release it.
Been thinking that same thing since the og trailer how many years ago?
@@desertxpunk lmao like 2 years ago? Jesus you people are entitled. It's pathetic.
games tend to launch early access to fund development
this game is probably made by a small team that needs the extra funds and support from the community
They're not made of money.
If this is the main mechanic of the game🥱
But if this is just the mechanic for one type of gun, then this could be something epic
Do we know platforms for release? Any chance of PS5?
Is this coming to consoles?
Where is the Steam Wishlist?
FPS deserves this. It deserves more than aim and shoot.
Reminds me of the OG Painkiller
Bc its by the ex Painkiller devs actually!
@@Eric_Nomad_Hixtone spicy! 🔥🔥😫
For Sigmaaarr! Oh..ok.
See, this is all we ask for, a bite sized sneak peek at gameplay to get us invested or interested
This game Witchfire reminds me of the old 2005 game Darkwatch
added to wishlist a year ago. promised to release in six months. a year has passed. promise when now?
This gives me some Darkwatch vibes man...I love that
Watched this and was excited. Went to steam to wishlist and didn't see it. Found out its an Epic exclusive, oh well looks like I'm not going to be playing anytime soon.
oh nice a epic exclusive, let me get my pirate hat
Please come out on PS5!
Just remember guys, This is Epic exclusive
It's kinda having rogue-lite mechanic tinkered into weapon system✨
..and I'm sold.
When will it be released???
going to have fun playing this if or when it releases on steam
This guy can be a voice actor as a young Giancarlo Esposito.
UI was clean-
This is just like destiny 2. What is this a medieval Destiny? a prequel?
the muggle expansion pack is finally here
Will it come out for PS5?
Cool ! Will check it for sure !
Why offset crosshair :-(
Day one....following this one since 2017, very excited to see the results
so, basically energy weapons in ancient age
Been waiting for more info on this one, can't wait man this is RIGHT UP MY ALLEY!!!...
I'm getting strong Darkwatch vibes, now you have my attention.
Looks like Desiny 2 and the Handgun is the Picass from Cayd
Looks great and has actual gameplay mechanics being showcased? I'm very interested
Been waiting for like 10 years to know who to pronounce Adrian Chmielarz's name haha.
Reminds me of the Exotic hand cannon "Hawkmoon" from the destiny series
Man, this game looks amazing, can't wait to play it
Love weapons in games that seem bleh at first but if you know their quirks that work 10x better.
epic games only = see you in a few years
