Too many well established games on that list for me to start getting excited about the coming months. Even Grimoire feels like a sequel....

Not really interested in any of the poll options, but I'm cautiously optimistic about Unknown Realm. I doubt it'll make it this year though.

With the talk about another beta and conference appearances "in the coming months", it sounds like Expeditions Viking isn't coming out in February.

Why no Caves of Qud? Not popular enough? From a dev on the steam forum: "We're probably 12-13 months out from a full release, we're planning on publishing a roadmap-to-release early next year." (posted dec 15, 2016) Game is very playable in current early access state.

I'm copying a list I made over at NeoGAF (Permabanned now). It includes incline, decfline, desudesucline and any other cline you can think of. I didn't want it to go to waste. The plan was to cover as many rpgs as possible. Are people interested in seeing this updated every now and then?

Expeditions: Viking
PC (Q1 2017)
Available on Steam Early Access
)Official webpage
expidition-vikingfix.jpg

Tactical/Strategy RPGs with turn based combat and a dash of resource management. I played Expeditions: Conquistador with low expectations having been disappointed by another SRPG I had played (Blackguard) but it turned out to be a far more engaging experience and I had a great time. The combat in Conquistador fell into the tough start but easy late game trap but the game was enjoyable and pretty short so this was not an issue for me. The writing and setting in Conquistador both surprised me pleasantly so I have been looking forward to more from the developers. I find SRPGs to be less common subgenre so it gets a bonus on hype points from me 8.5/10 Mephala hype points.

In For The King, every turn matters. Discovering new locations is paramount to success. Choose to split your party up and cover more ground, or stick together for protection. A sound strategy can mean the difference between life and death.
Fight and die as a party in fast paced and brutal turn-based combat using a unique slot system for attacks and special abilities. Find and gather herbs for your trusty pipe to heal your wounds and cure your maladies. Set up safe camps or brave the horrors that nightfall brings.
Collect Lore and use it to strategically and persistently unlock the mysteries and mechanics of the places you find. Amass trinkets and treasure that will help you on your quest. But remember adventurer, you do this not for the riches or fame but for your village, for your realm, for the king!

Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones is a supernatural horror CRPG (computer role-playing game) set in the strange worlds of Howard Phillips Lovecraft. Embracing the themes of pulp and weird fiction, Stygian will draw the player into a bleak journey from a ruined Arkham to the very depths of the Abyss.
The gameplay experience promises a mix of rich role-playing and turn-based tactical combat, in a 2D environment with an original, illustrative graphic style. In Stygian, you will create your main character from scratch, with access to several archetypal backgrounds, each with its own origin story, skills, traits, and belief system, the last of which determines how your character replenishes lost sanity as well as presenting unique dialog choices.

PC Gamer says PoE2 is coming out in March 2018. OK!
How's that a surprise? The fig page already says Q1 2018. PC Gamer probably just based their guess on that.
It will probably delayed for some months anyhow.

I'm surprised that they were given an exact date at such an early stage, even if it does make sense.
