Tacticular Cancer: We'll have your balls

  1. Having trouble staying logged in? Note: We are rpgcodex.NET not .COM. Trying to login via .com will cause issues. Make sure you are on rpgcodex.net to login and all will be fine.

    And if the Password Recovery doesn't work (there was an error transitioning accounts during the upgrade), use the "contact us" link right down the bottom right of the forums and harass us about it. Include your account name and its e-mail address (or whatever parts of it you remember).

    "This message is awaiting moderator approval": All new users must pass through our moderation queue before they will be able to post normally. Until your account has "passed" your posts will only be visible to yourself (and moderators) until they are approved. Give us a week to get around to approving / deleting / ignoring your mundane opinion on crap before hassling us about it. Once you have passed the moderation period (think of it as a test), you will be able to post normally, just like all the other retards.

Fuck everything, we're doing five blades

    This crap is supposed to apply to production values, isn't it? So what exactly are they going to do in order to elevate themselves above the current AAA? Facial mo-cap on every actor? Epic setpiece every 2 minutes instead of every 5 minutes? I have trouble imagining it.

    Knowing Microsoft, they're going to waste all that money on stuff that is completely irrelevant, but don't worry, marketing is gonna fix that. Worked with Fable, Halo 3 and Gears of War after all, too.

    But noo, can't spend a liiiiiitle money on Obsidian's project.

    Cunts.

    Well we know that AAAA game of theirs won't be an RPG after they cut Obsidian's funding like that...

    Are they going to make this internally? If yes, expect them to shut the "studio" down immediately once it's finished, unless it sells 10 million units in the first month.

    FFS.

    They ruined FASA, they ruined Ensemble, they ruined Rare, it's like Kwanzanian corporations can only ruin but never build something good.

    I believe we should stock up some '11 vintage CoD3. It's gonna be highly valuable to culinary gamers of the world of tomorrow.

    Ohhh fuck, I totally forgot Digital Anvil.

    Microsoft should have stayed out of the console buisness, everything would have been better.

    Well, if someone had taken a good to average game from 10 years ago and put it in a barrel and you opened the barrel today, it'd look like a masterpiece, so this might actually be a good idea.
