  1. What would an "innovative" RPG look like?

    D&D in pen and paper already has skills to support that kind of gameplay, it's just that d&d based cRPGs either don't implement them or butcher them. Bluff, Sense Motive, Gather Information, Disguise, Forgery, the extreme lot of Knowledge skills and so on. There is a definitive lack of magic...
  2. Game News The Witcher editor, patch and premium module released

    My biggest problem with the witcher is the fact that the side quests are, for the most part, completable in the same time as you are completing the main quest. You never truly are required to focus on any side quest because the mainquest will railroad you in a way that allows you to complete a...
  3. The horror...FO3 to be Games for Windows Live "enabled&

    Microsoft is dreaming of getting PC users to buy into the micro payment trend and they will prolly use the GfWL initiative for that effect. We first person shooter players on the PC always took for granted to have hundreds of free maps to play on the intarweb. Xbox kiddies are actually...
  4. Level scaling - a brilliant feature or a big mistake?

    The most important thing about BG2 "scaling" is that it didn't affect important creatures. Dragons didn't get weaker because you visit them in lowers levels while in oblivion there are absolutely no creatures ten times more powerful than you are which makes the world bland and uninteresting...
  5. Interview Mass Effect, trilogies, and epicness!

    I like neither ME nor Oblivion so I'll let you suck my cock, choke on the jizz and die the way you were meant to since you were born, reject.
  6. Your favorite RPG villain?

    Re: I liked ol' Jon This is why I was so pissed off with Bioware when I bought NWN1. BG2 isn't a stellar game but it was so big of an improvement over that shitty dungeon hack named BG1 that I thought it was still possible for them to better themselves again. But fuck. NWN1 was the worst...
  7. Bored killing X monsters over and over again

    About as entertaining as reading the forums of abovetopsecret.
  8. Interview Mass Effect, trilogies, and epicness!

    If you enjoy retardedness just go play some flash or java games on the intarweb and leave our RPGs alone. Hell, games that are all about that kind of gameplay are way better than any minigame we have to put up with anyway. The Incredible Machine for example. They just don't belong to RPGs...
  9. Alpha Protocol dialogues and screens

    What do you think you will get ? there is no debate here, it's purely a matter of good taste. I'm never gonna side with someone who thinks it's a good idea to make a dialogue system where you don't know what your character will say next and pretend there is no way to make a game nowadays without...
  10. Planescape: Torment speed run

    Yeah I don't see the problem with speed runs, they are done by people who obviously have enormous prior knowledge of the game and all its little secrets and the time to do one isn't much longer than any other pointless thing you people do in your pathetic lives unless you are kinda like a worker...
  11. Level scaling - a brilliant feature or a big mistake?

    larpingdude is just looking at having some lulz since Andhaira is banned. It's a troll. Don't feed it.
  12. Interview Mass Effect, trilogies, and epicness!

    Are you dumb ? the "gameplay through dialog" in Fallout and PST are implemented with lots of stats checks, it's your character who's doing his talking with his intelligence, charisma and so on, not you. In PST there even was dialogue lines opened if you had the right dexterity or strength...
  13. Game News New Fallout 3 Pics

    Jeremy Soule is the Hans Zimmer of the gaming world. He's not able to churn out anything that doesn't sound the same. You've listened one time to JS or HZ, you've heard them all. I want to kill a kitten every time I hear something that was touched by their dirty hands. Not surprisingly, I've...
  14. Your fantasy mash-up of engine and story?

    Don't. Just don't. Too much humor packed in a cRPG can distract you from the tone of an otherwise serious game story. I already hated in Arcanum the presence of quests like the Stillwater Giant, as much as I love the Monty Python I certainly DON'T want to see references to them in a cRPG, it...
  15. Games for Windows mag is dead

    I thought when I saw the title of the thread (i missed the "mag") that it was about the death of the xbox-live style initiative Microsoft is trying to shove down the PC too. What a disappointment. Don't care much if a stupid mag live or dies, they should all burn anyway. Their only purpose is to...
