I get that this is a harsh world, everyone is fighting for survival, not much space for the meek. However, if EVERYONE is trying to cheat you, then mistrusting becomes an easy choice. So, the suggestion. Doesn't need to be for the demo, it can be in the next areas... Why not add one or two innocent encounters, where trusting someone is the right thing to do? Why not add an honest and innocent character, even if a minor one? This will leave the players a bit off-guard, since they're not expecting it, and the contrast between this small candle of innocence and the brutal world around it will only reinforce how everyone else is crooked and jaded. It's a matter of contrast.

Without knowing any details, i would agree with this assesment and suggestion.

The rest seems just bloody awesome so far.

So when am I getting my review copy, VD?

 

[Mozgoëbstvo]

Worthy wait is worthy. Don't spoil your appetite.

Paid beta reviews, how convenient.

That was a joke Surf...
Black, i hate your new avatar. Just wanted to let you know that.

Damn, sorry. Even after a year around here, I still fail my irony rolls from time to time.
The quote seemed only a bit too unjust for me, since the beta is very well done and naming all those feedback reports as "payed" seems retarded.

Don't worry, I'll update it to the new version once the new XCom is out.

Black just likes to do these little exposes on VD and Co from time to time

ugh.

Yes. Each town has its own endings (so you'll see them in the demo), plus the global endings for the world at the end of the game.

So we get to see the game endings in the demo?

That's the best kind of demo there could be. The last 10% of the game.

You will see some town endings in the demo, not the global endings.

Where's my February update? They have sit around doing nothing for a whole month? Fuck this shit, it's vapourware.

Don't be so edgy, you might cut yourself.... On the other hand... do go ahead and cut yourself.

 

[villain of the story]

Sure sure. Now go back to the kitchen and make me a sandwich, StereoVille hon. Womenfolk like yourself aren't privy to the nuances of sarcasm, it will only hurt your head.

VILLAIN FIGHT

Volley of Turd Stories needs to stop mimicking the 2008 version of Null-tool.

More impressions. One very dear to my heart :

Just finished a playthrough as a merchant, without a single fight. This was MARVELOUS. I wrote down a few things, one of which is certainly a bug, and made some screens with typos; will post in the respective threads. But my "general feedback" is that the game is GREAT!

Im calling dibs on merchant letsplay suckers!

It's shit if you can't sell characters into slavery.

 

[Smashing Axe]

Selling folk into slavery would be a particularly satisfying end to an adversary, yeah. C&C also if they somehow escape.

 

[Black]

It's shit if you can't sell characters into slavery.

I can see it helping to advertise AoD- "A VIDEO GAME PROMOTES SLAVERY AND SUPPORTS TERRORISM".

Fallout 3 already did that. Including children slavery.
And I don't remember it atracting any attention from the histerical media.

- Added bodycount reputation when killing in dialogue mode.

 

[Corvinus]

Got to say I look forward to this game. If what I've read so far about it is the truth, it pretty much sums up my expectations of a quality RPG. And quality RPGs are rare these days.
I don't mind waiting for it.

Good because it's vapourware
