《Legends of the Round Table》将把你的存档变成中世纪风格的书

The indie RPG Arthurian based game Legends of the Round Table has announced a neat update today - that you'll be able to turn your savefile in the Arthurian adventure into a medieval style book.

In the game, most things are presented in a Medieval style, often like illustrated manuscripts (though far better on faces), similar to how Pentiment did a lot of its visuals in Obsidian's seminal work. In Legends of the Round Table though, instead of being in a medieval monastery and town, you are leading the knights of the round table in various grand adventures and wars across the realm from Camelot, with them drawing on various Arthurian legends, as well as tales of chivalry in general.

Because of how the developers designed the game, and have now reformatted save files, it can be exported into a PDF form that is a story telling essentially your tale of Arthurian myth and legend. Given these are all based on the oral traditions and tales that were then codified in works done often centuries later, nothing makes the version you choose to tell of the fictional Camelot any less valid than say La Morte D'Arthur or other Arthur canonical works in many ways.

Due to the save files being changed to make this work, existing Legends of the Round Table saves won't work, so you'll need to make a new save file if you want to create a storybook of your adventures. The developers say that the formatting is designed to meet Lulu.com's general printing means but that they are making nothing from this, unlike when Cairn made TShirts based on players save files - it's just something they think is neat.

My experience with Legends of the Round Table is that it is a quirky, and sometimes frustrating RPG/Adventure hybrid with a lot of focus on elements of chivalry and the Arthurian mythos. Roleplaying is often at the fore, and impacts even how you conduct battles as if you fight unchivalrously it impacts your reputation. It's an unique game with a distinct look that is worth trying out (with a free demo still available) if you are interested in odd RPGs, Arthurian Myths, or now you just really want your own medieval style book.
