CURSE named as 'Best Upcoming Mod'

[dissonance]

I had no idea this even existed.

I think most of its recognition was obtained from ModDB alone. I'm not really sure if it's on any other websites other than its main site.

Honestly the only reason why I knew of this mod prior to it winning this award was because it was on the front page in the recent updates column at ModDb a while back. It didn't look very interesting at the time, but I had no idea they were incorporating monsters like that worm demon and such. And the fact that they make it give off the traditional scifi tone makes it more appealing in a sense.

Also, yeah, that sky effect looked pretty fucking cool. I almost shit my pants the first time I saw it.

I don't know what you guys are talking about, that curse mod is pretty cool looking in action...

That one video with the sky effect and the wormdemon was impressive. Thats about it.

the mouse-controlled mace is pretty damn sweet too.

Remind me of Dark Messiah , but with a HL2 feel. This is not a good thing.

I actually liked Dark Messiah. ^^

Dark Messiah is an awesome game.

This looks a bit ... in between. The sky effect and the worms are awesome, but all the rest is pretty boring.

It all seems rather wip right now, for sure, but it looks promising at the least. I love the animated worm texture, and the worm monster is pretty cool (though I find that he would be easier to make with the worm texture already made.)

It's rather nice, but it right now the biggest problem is that it lacks:

• Interesting Lighting, Volumetric lighting and just more interesting lighting ideas.
• More custom sound effects
• idle animation and firstperson animations on movement
• Lacks more enemy diversity, beyond that of typical cliches.

This mod certainly looks interesting, especially since it is one I've never heard of before.
