90s mechanic should stay in the 90s

Yes, we should get an amazing rpg with cooldowns, with retarded itemization where armor works more like your char's DNA determining muscle mass/iq instead of offering protection and deleting blows, where you never miss, but can only hit enemies at 13m with an longbow and needs to impale the enemy 40x in the head to kill the enemy... Then we can add RMAH and ""surprise mechanics" to BG3, where 99% of time you will get emoticons and, an battle royalle mode, modern mechanics are all amazing

The armor is enchanted. Permanence dates back to OD&D(see Greyhawk supplement)

On D&D enhanced armor gives non stacking bonuses. This is very different if every wizard in D&D world had the same INT and secondary attributes, working like clones and the difference between an strong to an weak barbarian is not how muscle mass they have. Is how enhanced their carnival looking armor are. At this point, are you playing an character or the gear that they are wearing? Are you playing an RPG or an Barbie Dressing game? He mentioned that 90s mechanics should be on 90s without saying why. Why people accept BS like it easily in video games but if an novel writer create an fictional setting where every necromancer is an clone of other necromancers, people will criticize? And yes, modern games are full of BS.

The game was revealed at Stadia's event, where Google also unveiled a controller.

Expect this to be gamepad focused, so... third person.

We can only hope.

Another pillows/pathfinder boring BG remake is not what this world needs.

Can we send you back to the 90s too so we don't have to read your retarded posts?

Bitch please. If done right, item management can be an integral and perfectly legal part of character development.
Newfags these days...

The problem is when you ONLY have item development and everyone without items are clones.

I never liked wow, but IMO they are transforming RPG's into barbie dressing games only to put RMAH or lootbox in the game... Is that hard to make character attribute like attributes aka measuring your characters capabilities and armor like armor aka offering protection and deflecting blows?

Old Man Zep-- is not ready to make a proclamation on this game yet (Shit or Not-Shit)

However, currently leaning to Not-Shit.
Even though Swen abandoned us after the DOS Kickstarter was complete. Sad Really
Though, that may change.

I also don't give a shit about RTwP or Turn-Based. What I do CARE about is if it's a fun game regardless of the mechanics.

Zep--
