<a href=http://gnomeslair.blogspot.com>the random Gnomes' random Lair</a> has published <a href=http://gnomeslair.blogspot.com/2008/02/ten-gnomish-questions-age-of-decadence.html>an interview with Vince D. Weller</a> about the upcoming <a href=http://www.irontowerstudio.com/>Age of Decadence</a>. Here&#8217;s a snippet:
<br>
<br>
<blockquote>7. Will there be dialog? Puzzles? Moral Choices? Naked goblins?
<br>
<br>
We've spent all our money on dialogues and choices, so we had to skip puzzles and goblins completely. Even though they look kinda hot naked.
<br>
<br>
Overall, dialogues and choices are the main aspect of the game and the main attraction. We have seven different endings and only two involve mortal combat. You'll be able to talk your way in and out of trouble, make allies and enemies (there are no default good and bad guys), and handle quests in non-combat ways using dialogues and text adventure elements.</blockquote>
<br>
Also, in the official AoD forum, you can find a new update concerning a new location the <a href=http://www.irontowerstudio.com/forum/index.php?topic=210.0>weapons</a> you can use on the fully clothed non-goblins.

Well, they are much more better than the unavailable quests, I'll tell you that much. We have over 100 quests (104 to be specific, but that could change), but your choices will filter it down to about 60 quests per playthrough. I'm glad to report that we have 0 FedEx quests and 0 "kill x monsters/Bring me x items" quests.

I actually think that those FedEx quests can be nice sometimes, if not overdone.
At leats they are quests than are kind of "realistic" ... or can be.

You know, while I enjoyed that comic quite a lot and am thankful for you pointing it out, I suspect the author has some serious issues. I've never seen so much disturbing cross-species sex. Beholder with goblin, Orc with human, half-Orc with human, halfling with human. Yuck.

Speaking of disturbing cross-species sex . . . I started reading China Mieville's Perdido Street Station after seeing the rave reviews over at Iron Tower's forums. I haven't gotten too far (~25 pages), but I was shocked to discover that the author was able to make a foreplay scene between a fat man and a woman with a huge scarab beetle for a head actually seem kind of sexy.

Oh? And wouldn't you like to experience crossing with female drow?
That's what I thought!

My favorite part was they are going to offer a boxed game with a full color manual and a map. I heard this before, but it still turns me on.

Actually I don't understand vd.
First, he says there would be lot of text.
Then, there would be no pop-culture references.
After seeing gameplay movie, we can state there would be no bloom, pixel-shaders etc.
And now, there would be no goblins and even fed-ex.

What a stupid game, how could anyone buy it?

I hope this is irony that I fail to see.
If not, then even Andhaira couldn't top this.

It's not irony, it's not sarcasm, it does not have double senses and it's not meant to simulate Andhaira.

Poor codexers, everyone thinks that everything has to be tainted with some ulterior motives.. Doesn't it hurt your brainz?

Sheep gave you more credit than you deserve. I doubt it'll happen again, so savour the experience while it lasts.
