[Excidium]

Looking good.

 

[Lightknight]

Well, there wont be any orange grass, but he really needs a proper artist to get the colors right. Those engine exhausts look very odd.

 

[Marobug]

what the fuck

 

[someone else]

Too much colour, I prefer my space to be dark and cold.

 

[Korgan]

Can't wait for this. Man, this game sounds like it's taking the best things from Space Rangers, Star Control 2 and Escape Velocity, and I loved all of those.

 

[laclongquan]

I can imagine gameplay is a bit like Depth of Peril.

 

[ortucis]

I don't get it.

 

[Satan]

Depth of Peril in the space. Just as banal shit boring like all his previous copy-pastas.

 

[Elwro]

Depth of Peril was a banal-shit-boring copy-pasta?

Graphics were fine and there was a very good opportunity to tell a interesting story in a good RPG. But it all went down the drain when the game ended up being nothing more than a Quake 3 tournament where AI was not only after your head but ater your quests as well.

So yeah, if you like racing against computer to complete generic quests in a generic world, you will love it. I don't, so I never touched any other game from the developer (since the same feature is actually mentioned in bold like it is so awesome and super and fun.. IT ISN'T).

 

[Micmu]

We don't need no INDIE action "RPG"s. what the fuck. soldak can smoke my dick

 

[Jaesun]

I was hoping this would be turn-based.

 

[circ]

Looking good.

Looking like crap you mean? Some kind of LSD rainbow afterburner colors and lensflare thrown in here and there.

 

[Excidium]

I mean it looks good enough. Needs some polishing and stuffies of course.

from your mouth to god's ears bro!!!!

 

[Lightknight]

from your mouth to god's ears bro!!!!

Crom doesnt grant requests or listens to pleas.

 

[Kane]

Am I the only one who read "Djin's Curse" at first glance?

 

[Jasede]

You guys are a bunch of retards.

Here comes something that might be as fun as Privateer and you complain it's ugly and not turn-based. Go die in a fire.

his previous games were banal shit boring. why would i expect something awesome now?

I have never played Privateer , am I missing something? I probably passed on it before because i'll assume it's not turn based.

 

[Jasede]

You deserve to sit in the stupid corner then.

Why should a game whose main attraction is a changing, emergent universe be turn-based? Real-time adds pressure. Din's Curse is excellent precisely because of this element, and other well-executed ones.

And a Codexite who hasn't played Privateer is no Codexite at all.

 

[Jaesun]

Oh ok.

EDIT: There was never an Amiga port for it so I missed it. I had my Amiga 500 until 2002.

Still playing catch up on games that never had an Amiga port.

:facepalm:

If only you added a few buzzwords like visceral and adrenaline packed too and I might have taken you for Todd or Pete.
