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

The space bar or a targeted left click on the continue bar would be my preference for continuing text.

 

I can think of one person who fits that description

edit: beaten by Infinitron.

These posts are either a Roguey troll, or Roguey is actually upset that the backer portal is not up yet (qq).

Lol.

 

Agreed.

 

Enter never bothered me.

edit: Chris Bischoff (Stasis) does Twin Elms

 

Dammit Mr.Chris! Stop making us excited

 

Was just coming here to post that.
It was based on the awesome concept art found here: http://forums.obsidian.net/topic/64667-update-68-art/

 

If the backer portal is not released today, I will be seriously disappointed.

Show Spoiler Hide Spoiler

 

The backer portal is nice and all but I don't really care wether they release it today or not. What I really want to see is a gameplay video and loads of new info.

 

Obs and Inxile must definitely put Pyke as a stretch goal in their KSes next time.

 

They'll both be delivered in the same update so the traffic from the video can convert to purchases in the portal.

 

Yeah deffo.

 

Eh, just use numeric enter?
After long years of lost computer gaming, my right tumb mutated so I can press it while holding the mouse.

 

I've played the IE games more than any other RPG, so I'm quite used to their control scheme. I'd be annoyed if I couldn't replicate it in Eternity.

I just take my hand off the mouse for dialogue if I'm gonna speed through it.

 

oh no, how terrible

 

Having fun patronizing every third post I make? Feel free to keep doing it, I think it's funny

I thought you were mature age?

 

lol, how old do you think i am

and its hard not to patronize

 

The control scheme of the IE games was very good. There's some functionality such as right click+hold to rotate party formation that would be clunky if mapped to anything else. Dunno about you but going from an IE game to NWN2 or Dragon Age and it's like what the fuck have they done to the controls.

Enter to skip through dialogue isn't such a big deal (space probably would be better, even) but the general mapping of actions is pretty much as good as it gets for a mouse focused game.

 

Well I use my mouse hand to press enter during dialogue, I don't generally ever move my left hand when gaming. You can also click continue with the mouse, but if you want to do it really fast to skip through, taking mouse hand off the mouse is faster.

 

You walked right into that one coffee.

 

Brandon Adler had enough time to post about some screenshot some guy made, but not enough to post "Hey, portal's ready."

Going to be fantastic when nothing happens today either.

 

you were crying about it yesterday
