Indie RPG News Roundup, December 26th
Looking for some indie computer RPG goodness in the post-Christmas, pre-New Years week? No? Well, I've got some for you anyway!

Depths of Peril
At Soldak's site, they have two new short stories of the myths about the origins of the different races:
Myths of Origins: Barbarians
Myths of Origins: Lumen

Eschalon: Book 1
The Linux version of this much-talked-about, much-liked turn-based RPG is now available. Linux gamers, rejoice!
Eschalon: Book 1 Linux Version

Age of Decadence
There's a second (pretty hefty) combat video for Age of Decadence. Here's the YouTube version:

There's a higher-quality version on the Iron Tower Studio site. The text descriptions of the combat are visible in this version, which requires an updated MP-4 codec to view. But the text is half the fun - nicely grisly. Click on the Age of Decadence logo in the linked message to download it. It clocks in at about 45 megs.

Enjoy!

I just played the Eschalon yesterday so the windows version is also available... I was totally impressed btw , but I haven't played many RPG-s in my life so far
 
Yeah, Eschalon is very impressive. The story wasn't quite as involving as some other RPGs, and I do find I'm a sucker for a good story :) But in spite of that, it's a great game, and pretty compelling.
 
Yeah, the story was the weakest part of Eschalon. I am trying to free up some more time so I can go after another RPG. Age of Decadance looks very good, it is like a mix of Final Fantasy Tactics and Fallout with a NWN graphical style. The turn based nature of the game may make the third person camera a lot less like work. I am ancious to see how this one turns out.
