    You're one of very very few posters worth reading in the ukr/rus war thread. :-)

    Encounter design is king

    Ignoring or even threatening to ignore someone for disagreeing with you is pretty damn shameful, just fyi.

    Azarkon vs the Cult of Hardcore RPG Fatalism - can hardcore RPGs sell better?

    Not that different - we're still talking about turn based RPGs here. Less than 15% of players even played DivOS co-op.

    Azarkon vs the Cult of Hardcore RPG Fatalism - can hardcore RPGs sell better?

    That's what difficulty modes are for. Design the game around hard (your real audience), then make a normal and easy (storymode, whatever) to reel in less skilled masses. It significantly widens your pool of potential buyers with almost no investment.

    someone should inform Larian that turn-based combat is terrible for sales!

    Game News Underworld Ascendant Update #17: Melee Combat Info, Playable Prototype Available to All Backers

    Very interested about this. I'm always had nagging sensation they bit off more than they could chew, especially as simulationism can easily devolve into an overcomplicated, unbalanceable mess. But a prototype is a good sign; well see. Anyone with prototype access, feel free to slake the info...

    Game News Underrail Released

    An early access game actually finished? How can this be?! UnderRail is great as long as you don't expect planescape level writing or quest design - this is a combat driven game. But can you imagine the sheer incline if Styg used the engine to make a story-quest-cnc based sequel? With the same...

    Game News Underrail Dev Log #43: Release Date - December 21st

    As much as I love Underrail (GOTY, etc) the game has a significant weakness which I'm surprised few people have raised here. (DISCLAIMER: I haven't played too far ahead so as to not spoil the full version - things may get better later on.) I feel there is a relative lack of Fallout style quests...

    Game News Pillars of Eternity: The White March Part 2 coming late January

    Hoping that PoE2, when it's eventually released, will be to PoE what BG2 was to BG1 in terms of sheer improvement. PoE was pretty damn mediocre IMO.

    Game News Underworld Ascendant Update #12: Prototype Gameplay Footage, now with commentary

    Why does it feel like everything is moving through syrup? And yes that FoV, barf. Hopefully this is not too reflective of the final game.

    Stellaris - Paradox new sci-fi grand strategy game

    I have to reluctantly confess that I'm getting hyped about this.

    The Saga of Firedorn Lightbringer: Obsidian caves in to the SJWs

    Not to sound like a white knight or anything, but is there really nothing more interesting to discuss here than the looks of a tranny?

    Pillars of Eternity Thread [Pre-Expansion]

    Love many things, but the writing is pretty underwhelming in places - too long-winded, sluggish and overwrought. What happened to "brievity is the soul of wit" exactly? The writing's not always like that; Durance for example, or the other companions I've met so far, but the general feeling is...
