Preview An Authentic Account of an Embassy from the RPG Codex to Larian Studios

[Crooked Bee]

Sure. Can anyone remind me the date though?

 

[Metro]

Dragon Commander should be turn based.

 

[sea]

Awesome preview, extremely in-depth and detailed. Why can't we get coverage like this more often?

 

[Zed]

Awesome preview, extremely in-depth and detailed. Why can't we get coverage like this more often?

because this is a hobby for staff and codexers - not a business?

There also wasn't much to cover before.

 

[Grunker]

I think sea was asking why we didn't get more coverage like this in general (i.e. from professional sites and such)

 

[Zed]

I think sea was asking why we didn't get more coverage like this in general (i.e. from professional sites and such)

in that case, almost the same answer (but in a different meaning): we are doing it for a hobby. more enthusiastic, more interested, not really in it for "page hits", etc.
1) multipage write-ups isn't worth it for bigger outlets unless it's some moral thing, feminism or some shit.
2) because their readers wouldn't appreciate long articles - they want to-the-point shit.
3) because game journalists aren't gamers and don't know how to discuss games in-depth.

In which case Zed's answer applies as well.

EDIT: FUCK.

I'm pretty sure sea had that answer in mind when he asked the question ...

Not that I don't agree with you.

March 25.

 

[A user named cat]

You guys need to send a sacrifice respectable member to Cleve's bunker next for an article.

 

[Jaesun]

Yeah. Send commie. They are BFF.

 

[catfood]

I vote for commie as our official ambassador.

 

[evdk]

I vote for commie as our official ambassador.

He will have to wear a wire, unless you want to use the missing person report as a preview.

 

[GarfunkeL]

As if radio waves could penetrate Cleve's bunker. Besides, commie couldn't get past the automated defences.

 

[Kz3r0]

DU is an Aussie, just saying.

 

[Broseph]

DU would not sacrifice himself to Cleve. What would happen to the Codex?

 

[evdk]

Cleve would run it wearing DU's skin.

 

[Jaesun]

D:

 

[Broseph]

 

[kaizoku]

Cleve will spare him if he rides a turtle.

 

[Outlander]

Fucking hell! It's stuff like this that males this site prestigious.

 

[OSK]

Great job being so in-depth, but too milquetoast.

You can't blame him for that. He's Belgian. It's in his blood.

 

[Mangoose]

I wonder what else is in his blood today, given that they are neighbors to Holland and yesterday was 420

The most in-depth Divinity Original Sin preview ever!

Who could expect that one of the most detailed & extensive hands-on reports to be released would come from somebody whose day job does not involve pretending he knows anything about games?

Meet Gragt.

He played Divinity:Original Sin, he played Divinity:Dragon Commander. Then he decided to write down his experiences. We predict a great career in gaming journalism. Nice job Gragt!

Here's his preview (warning: do not put something in the oven when starting to read this!)
