Obsidian's Pillars of Eternity [BETA RELEASED, GO TO THE NEW THREAD]

Minsc is overrated, Boo is a much better character.

 

I cant wait what they reply to this

 

These people are incredible. I like how this last sentence is related to the preceding one.

 

I hope so. Though he could've just brofisted the use of the word 'faggots'.



But I see plenty of Mrakvampire's type on the BSN as genuine posters, so it wouldn't surprise me if he was serious too.

 

The best part of people always dropping the 'x is the best y EVER' is when they misspell x.

 

Seems kinda difficult to judge the whole Stamina/Health thing until more is known about the Health side and rest in general. I would assume low health should probably impact maximum stamina as well (if not, it should). This could all work out fairly well if implemented correctly. Rest would need to be very limited. If it is, they may end up creating a system decidedly less forgiving than the IE games (especially on Expert, where stamina loss would certainly lead to death).

 

Shit, I'm trying to fight the good fight on that horrible place but it seems more difficult than trying to make a point on GD.

 

Rahelron:

DA2 did it right?! What the fuuuuuuck?!

 

DA2 did it better than DA:O. I wouldn't say 'right' though, as there was still some very annoying things (most companions love you!), but at least it was possible to go into pure friendship with everyone, and there were some companions who nope'd any attempt at romance.

 

The influx of Obsidian dolts will serve as very admirable and appropriate references for how Obsidian will write and characterize their INT 1 character.

All of the people commenting on that lass yesterday are male virgins and sexists, you heard it right there bros.

 

Me Obsidrone, you Jane.

 

Obsidian should have romances. But all the dialog should be written as 1 INT dialog. For both the PC and NPCs.

inb4 Roguey.

Still, many of the comments were neckbeard virgin territory. So I guess he's (she's) at least half right. Chat was full of shit regardless of whether it was "sexist" or not.

 

Let's be perfectly honest, the comments in the chat were shit. And I would not describe Obsidian's going along with it as handing it well, but whatever.

Why am I even reading that forum..

 

I wonder if they'll add cameo's from their own games though. With all this Biodrone Minsc talk you might start to wonder if Kreia pops up somewhere in a tavern.

 

That's so Codexian .

 

I think it's certainly a more likely assumption than the alternative; that dozens of muscled investment bankers, still aching from passionate loving sex with their nubile doctor wives, simultaneously sat down at their laptops cradling their beloved firstborn children in their beefy arms and began a shrill cloying campaign to get some kind of reaction out of a blurry woman stood at the back of a room on the internet.

 

I'm disappoint, no one took my bait with war veterans, should I repost it, gents?

 

The tactic I'll be using is stating what i think about an issue with strong argumentation and then NOT reading the replies. If there's enough people making sane comments it MIGHT somewhat change the terrain. That's the only way to keep one's sanity. And discussing with retards is pointless.

 

I agree with this. Everything that happened there was ok-ish(the green shirt girl thing was retarded though), but the children shouldn't have been there. WTF was Feargus thinking?

Anyway, MCA was a god. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

 

I think the key here is that "Health" does not regenerate (just "Stamina"). They also said that spells do not heal Health. Honestly, this could work out fairly well if they can minimize rest abuse (this is key). In the IE games, you could get to max everything by spamming rest and you could stay at high health with smart potion/spell use. It sounds like in PE, you have to carefully manage two health pools. This could be interesting.

 

And to initiate all romances your character has to walk up to a target and start petting his/her hair while making out with the back of his own hand.
