Fucking pathetic video though

 

[Zed]

I love the natural immunity Germans seem to have to cheesiness.

[Excidium]

P. cool.

[Hobo Elf]

Wow, some pretty steep decline here. They didn't craft the world by hand this time, and instead used a program to generate it. Fucking lame. Also tutorial islands.

 

[Phelot]

Oh God...

Still looking forward to the game, but apparently no one else is. Only 100 views for that vid? Did they try to bury it?

 

[Metro]

Terrain engine?!?! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! "If it's too big it gets boring." What?!?!

 

[Jaesun]

It looks fine. Overreact much?

 

[Metro]

What would the Codex be without overly dramatic reactions? I'm sure it'll be fine. I must believe in PB!

 

[Elwro]

Goddamnit. I loved PB's hand-crafted worlds...

 

[Excidium]

I'm p. sure it'll still be handcrafted where it matters, they just won't have to take care of every dirt road or terrain slope.

 

[Mangoose]

Eh, I'd only be worried if they were not hand-crafting the quests/NPCs.

They need to make fake gold coins look and sound more like real gold coins in videos and games. The sound of coins clinking in games doesn't sound like real coins clinking, though gold coins don't make as nice a sound as silver coins. Of course they aren't suppose to be high purity so I guess they shouldn't sound that good. Man I wish games have better sounding coins.

"If it's too big it gets boring."

Straight from the mouths of the developers of Gothic 3, my very favorite game among all of those I've realized I'll never, ever play through all the way.

 

[Metro]

Gothic 3 might be big but the content leaves a lot to be desired. Actually now I understand 'too big it gets boring' -- if you can't flesh out interesting content (excluding MMO style grinds, see, e.g. Varant and Nordmar) then don't bother putting huge spaces in the game just for the sake of having them.

 

[someone else]

If Gothic 3 had guns it might actually be fun to slaughter the 1000+ mobs in it.
