Keen Software House, the developers behind Space Engineers, has announced the new game in their Engineers series, Medieval Engineers.

About Medieval Engineers

Medieval Engineers is our second game about engineering and construction. The first one was Space Engineers and it is still doing very well.
Medieval Engineers is inspired by real medieval technology and the way people built architectural works and mechanical equipment using medieval technology. Medieval Engineers strives to follow the laws of physics and real history and doesn't use technologies that were not available in the 5th to 15th century. Players build cities, castles and fortifications; construct mechanical devices and engines; perform landscaping and underground mining.
Medieval Engineers brings three major upgrades to our VRAGE engine: structural integrity, natural landscape and Physically Based Rendering.

That looks cool but they already have an half finished game on early access.I am sure they will swear they hire a second team just for that as usual, but we all know how that turns to be .

Considering the lack of trainspotting-themed games, I think this title takes the crown of "Most Anorak Game in Existence"

Ah yes, the doublefine system of game development. And KAG does medieval 'engineering' much better :killit:

This. Watch Space Engineers fall to shit now.

Meanwhile, the guys doing Prison Architect are still releasing monthly awesome updates a year or so later.

EDIT: I'm still gonna buy both though. And if this has M&B's combat, I'm going to wet my little girl panties.

I found Space Engineers to be very boring. But I like Minecraft.
There is just nothing going on in Space Engineers, that is how much of an actual sandbox it is.

I'm not saying that the game is bad (I could only tell it is not my taste), but I think games (even sandbox games) should give players some kind of incentive or mission to begin with.
You don't have to follow it, but not having anything at all, I would say Space Engineers is more of a digital toy than an actual game.

But I wonder if this one could be for me if I did not like Space Engineers.

I'd buy this and space engineers if I thought they'd ever become games. But we all know Half Life 3 will be released before either of these make it out of Early Access.

I tried space engineers like a month ago and found it to be... well, ultra boring. There is nothing really happening in the game, unless you are happy just fooling around with space-lego.
