As long as they make combat and guns better than in NW, game will be fine. No need them romance dramas.

Suppose there’s a question for what exactly would constitute for ”better”. Better for achieving what kind of experience.

I’d consider making it a ”better” FPS than New Vegas certainly an improvement of sorts, but a wrong kind of one (which turns the effect to the contrary).

I do not take it for granted that gunplay in TOW will be as good as in FONV (where it already wasn't spectacular). I am not an FPS expert or anything, but it looks to me like FPS gunplay is something that requires considerable talent and experience to make it feel good.

The guns themselves were fine in FONV, what was the problem? Great variety.

This game reeks of low energy, just like its has-been developers. Just looking at it or hearing its news makes me feel tired and sleepy. Its some sort of mystical energy radiating from the developers through their game. I was pumped to go running and then go to the gym and when I glanced at this game latest news I feel tired and sleepy now.

I wonder why they are doing all this press stuff when they have not even disclosed a release date? Is the consumer supposed to stay hyped up for 6 months?

Poor guys. If only Pillows Of Eternity 2 didn't severely underperform like it did.

Other explanation:

I think his kids are teens by now. A parents hell.
The Project Eternity livestream, where his son asked Alvin if he robbed banks, and the chat room people started jumping up and down about lolis when Feargus dragged his daughter out was nearly seven years ago. :negative:

It's still Thursday here, and also in Minneapolis where these guys are based. Given that the coverage was for a month, I think they did the interview today and will put it up tomorrow.

Pre-Order it ! Do it now we can even give you a 5% discount!
Obviously they are trying to maintain hype ( why it's there I don't know) to sell as many preorders as possible.
