Their design approach was different this time around. Now, less than one year later, Daedalic has released Blackguards 2. The standards that Blackguards has set in encounter design will very likely remain an industry benchmark for generations to come. While the game consisted almost entirely of combat (and at least 40 hours worth of combat at that), the designers did their utmost to make every encounter unique, challenging, and – in my purely subjective opinion – quite simply interesting to play through. Blackguards's strengths, however, were in areas that had long since lain fallow in modern RPGaming: it offered a remarkable amount of freedom in character creation and development that put any party based game since the Realms of Arkania trilogy to shame. Blackguards was a well-received sleeper hit that offered players an intriguing combination of tactical turn based combat with a harrowing story of death, betrayal, and heroism, built on the foundation of the German “The Dark Eye” setting (in essence, a subtly tweaked and expanded version of the American “Dungeons and Dragons” system).īlackguards was not a perfect game: its provocatively challenging gameplay proved a turn-off to those who found no joy in complexity, while the game's laser-like focus on a simple, linear, yet wholly sufficient central narrative served to alienate dedicated explorers, romantic souls, and compulsive collector types alike.
After years of public exhortations, Daedalic finally made their first cautious entry into the RPG genre in early 2014. Imagine, then, what such a team of professionals, masters in marrying complex gameplay to transcendent storytelling, could achieve in the exalted sphere of role play gaming. Today, Daedalic are virtually the only remaining major developer of complex and well-written adventure games. In recent years, Daedalic Entertainment, based in Europe's cultural capital of Hamburg, Germany, has applied this work ethic to the adventure genre.
BLACKGUARDS 2 ELEMENTARIST TURBAN MANUAL
Sawyer? Germany's game developers have taken their work ethic from the manual labourers who built the Autobahn and dug the great coal pits of the Ruhrgebiet: they labour in the service of a greater good, striving tirelessly towards perfection. Even the greatest American games draw upon German talent: who could imagine a Planescape: Torment without Guido Henkel, or a Pillars of Eternity without J.E. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the quality of German RPGs: from the classic Realms of Arkania trilogy through the transgressive Albion and the ground breaking Ambermoon to the blockbuster Gothic and Risen franchises, the thread of German game design winds through the very DNA of role play gaming.

I do my best to describe the stage names, or at least give them useful descriptions. They are in chronological order for the most part (depending on which paths you take and when you initiate pillage missions). I have listed each of the chests I encountered that earned me the achievement.
Also, be sure you collect chests before meeting the criteria to complete the stage. This will help you spot them among the rubble. You can always use the toggle control that makes all interactive objects glow red. Please note that you cannot earn this achievement on the same run you attempt 'The Saint', as many chests are located in Faramud's pillage missions, which will void 'The Saint'. This is an easily missable achievement, as many levels cannot be replayed once they are completed.
