To be honest the last centuries of the bronze age were quite exciting. There were events like the see people destroying nearly all remaining bronz empires, the fall of the Hettites and Minoans, the rise and fall of the Mycenae and the rising of the new iron age states like David's Isreal.
What is a bit strange to me, is the use of the name of Kyros for the main villain, all Kings with the name Kyros were pretty decent Kings and good leaders.
Despite the shitty effects and SJW propaganda i will definitely try this thing out.
I remember reading some Wilbur smith books, his Egypt ones where there was some fantastic battle scenes where one tribe is coming in contact with people with iron weapons and getting absolutely dominated. Imagine how demoralizing it would have been to block a sword only to have yours break...
I agree that that sort of "arms race" maybe set off against larger armies vs. better armed but smaller ones, would be an interesting setting.
Bullshit you haven't played minecraft?Bronze is stronger than most iron, so the guy writing that must have been retarded unless you're talking about them using copper because they didn't have enough bronze weapons for everyone.
Talking about the part where Feargus yells at people, don't know if it was streamed.

Its not a big step up, thats my point. The setting is generic fantasy, that it has an evil overlord does not make it kewl. Low standards, low energy.There's Midnight setting and Mistborn but not much else. Darksun maybe also fits. A big step-up from "Jolly band of adventurers stops evil maniac and his evil minions from doing something unspeakably evil".
If you play Sarevok and win, does not make Sword Coast non generic original unique.
I remember that post, but I didn't know about the livestream. Is there a video? And did MCA really say that?
Though I guess you guys are talking about the party party, not the end of campaign stream?
Oh my god, I had no clue taleworlds was on E3. They finally showed a siege gameplay!
Looks fucking sweet. Can't wait.
still no gameplay footage ffs
Thanks. People in this thread said it was right after they started singing, made it easy to find.I remember that post, but I didn't know about the livestream. Is there a video? And did MCA really say that?

https://www.twitch.tv/obsidian/v/38122969 I think that might be it. I wouldn't know where it'd be in that 6 hours.
I'm glad Josh hates loud drunks almost as much I do. This is one of the reasons why we're perfect for each other.lol everyone left and now josh is back

How did you get that from any of the material released about this game so far?+ Being lawful as a source of power? or some shit like that, might count if it doesnt come from a God
- High magic, with magic fights, since you need magic users to fight it will be spread enough to not call it low magic
- Looks to me like the general medieval, feudal setting, society wise, somewhere in temperate climate (on a big island...)
- Epic
- Purple Crystals and shit
+ Only human races, counts as non generic if they dont make em fantasticThere is some kind of bugbear in the party in the trailer...

It's not about what I want or don't want.If you don't want to see fantasy tropes, don't play fantasy games. It's not enough to make it generic, though.
You mean that it is most non-generic part in 101% of generic story.Being the high executor of the victorious Evil Lord isn't very generic.
You forgot cold iron for spirits.Nah, you're both retarded. Silvers for Monsters. Steel for Humans.
And bronze doesn't rust under normal conditions, that's why we have a lot of bronzework, and very little of ironwork.Indeed. That is the most idiotic notion deeply embedded in fantasy genre.
Distortion. It isn't a thing that made P:T what it is, it is combination of elements, that driven by the story, and if you remove a story the game will lose roughly half of it originality.- High magic, with magic fights, since you need magic users to fight it will be spread enough to not call it low magic

You could say the same about Darksun, Raveloft, Planescape (except society is generic XIX century instead of medieval, by the way how do you know that society is medieval?), Morrowind, Gothic, Wizardry and Dark Souls. Is making a non-generic fantasy RPG possible? Making it low-magic, non-epic and removing crystals doesn't work because then it's just a Conan ripoff which is also generic.
Sawyerism is the Heresy, Anti-Sawyerism is the Holy Inquisition.Still, something tells me this will be better received than PoE.
I think it'll be lovely if it isn't better received, as numerous Codexers finally face the fact that it's not some mysterious "Sawyerism" that turned them off of PoE, but the simple fact that it featured more active ability use than the Infinity Engine games did. Cooldowns, baby, cooldowns.
Although, maybe with just four party members they'll be able to handle that better.
Sawyer is now in charge of setting game design imperatives for the whole studio, so your notion that that would change our opinion of Sawyer is rather naive at best.
Told you. Anti-Sawyerism has developed into a religion. There's always an explanation.
