A minor complaint in mannerism all in all (imo) are a couple of American-isms in the dialogue.

It doesn't capture a historical feel of Norse culture, but it captures a fun fantasy Norse feel, which is just fine by me. It has potential, and it could always end up being worse than the demo shows, but I'm personally not going to discard it just because it doesn't capture an 'authentic' Norse feel.
Yeah, I'd love going for an 'authentic' Norse feel, but we'll have to settle for the 'fun fantasy Norse feel', unfortunately. It's just a game, after all, not a historical lesson :p

Dev, I want you to put some Japanese girls in this game!!!

;)
Don't joke about that, one of the characters was supposed to be a Japanese slave :ROFLMAO: But I went for a French one for "historical accuracy" :p (Also, being French as well, I can have fun with the language).

I have never seen a game with so many male characters in it yet. Maybe because I am not into gay porn. This game isn't gay porn, is it?

What a shame the redhead is fake. Her hair dye is running out and her roots are showing.

Just joking. The artwork looks amazing and I will certainly have a look at the next update.
How dare you call her fake! Fi on you! Fi and shame!

Also, re: the men in the game. There will be no penis fencing whatsoever in Vinland.

I suppose, as I have nothing to say... that I shall leave this beautiful anecdote found from amongst the Bryggen inscriptions (Of which there are around 670 finds).

Lovely is the pussy, may the prick fill it up!

Im not up on my Norse history, but exactly how much of a connection is there between the Norse and Native Americans?
Well, Leif Erikson established a colony in Newfoundland (From which there are finds of iron-working from a forge, as well as indentations supporting the construction of log-houses), and it is possible that they went further inland. They referred to the Native Americans as Skraelings, much as they did with the Thule people and other indigenous peoples that today would be referred to as the "Inuits".

Initially there were amicable relations between the Scandinavians and the Native americans, With woolen fabric goods and amber being traded for Native american goods such as beads etcetera, but relations eventually soured. It is thought that the Scandinavians traded ox and goat milk or cheese products to the Native Americans, and because the latter were lactose intolerant it is possible that this is what caused a fight to break out.

Not long afterwards Leif Erikson and the rest of his crew returned to the boats and left, never to return.

Also, I'm totally going to steal this quote :D

Good choice, and one I hope I came across as agreeing with previously, it was a bit late when I downloaded it and responded to the thread haha.

Playing around with this setting is the fun of it all, and I tried the prologue again a little earlier, good impressions are still standing.

In regards to the font, I'm hoping you stick with it. I think the worst for most are -ic words since the font makes them look like a singular K, but eh, people will get used to it. It's surprisingly authentic and adds great flavour to the feel.

I haven't come across many fighting scenes in ren'py/DAZ hybrid games, I'm curious if/how you'll implement some.

Kinda curious what kind of gameplay elements you'll be implementing, any comment on that or will we just have to wait and see? :p

Really promising work so far though, wish you the best and I'll keep a keen eye on it.

Thanks, regarding the font, I do like it (of course, I got used to it), and it has not be chosen randomly. That being said, if too many people dislike it, and if it prevents people from playing the game because they can't read it, then I'll have to change it anyway.

Regarding the fighting, I've got a few ideas that I'd like to implement, but I might be technically challenged to do so :/ When the time comes, I'll ask around.

You might have seen that for now, the two main paths are Warrior and Scholar, and I'd like to comment on the gameplay you might expect for each path, but I won't. You'll have to be surprised, like everyone else :p Just know that the two should play very differently (if I succeed in rendering what I have in mind).

The correct choice is to call your MC Ragnar :p I hope we can pursue Freydis the whole red hair look :love: good start we need more Viking games on here.
Ha ha. Canonically, I intended to have the MC be called "Olaf Olafsson" :LOL:
As for Freydis, she's the very reason I've made this game in a viking setting. The world needs more redhead amazonian freckled eye candy :D

oH ... REALLY?!? -> "redhead amazonian freckled eye candy"

But ... But ... WRONG PANTHEON AND ... WRONG ISLAND AND ... WRONG ORIGIN STORY ...

Not to mention whole island would have to be "redhead amazonian freckled eye candy" packed;)

I heard there's an anime called Vinland that just came out with a mc named Thorfinn and his op warrior father named Thor. I'm not a weeb I would never watch anime.
