is it possible you could upload the previous logo?

Done! A few notes on what we do and do not like about this logo:

how do you feel about medieval themes?

I would be concerned that such a theme would be too "backward-looking" or expected, but I don't want to shut down any interesting ideas before I see them.

do you have a website or a reference to products?

www.numenera.com

This is our first major release. Future releases may or may not be similar in look and feel, so we don't want the logo to be too tied to this style.

Worked on a concept as described and just submitted. Would love to know what do You think.
Best Regards,

how do you feel about initials or would you prefer the whole name?

i have submitted a design but i feel there may be something wrong with it, could you provide me with feedback?

I won't say no to initials if you have an incredible design. I think we'd prefer the whole name, but if we're blown away by an initials-based design, we'd accept it!
