clearly what we really need is icewind dale 3

 

[glass blackbird]

Really, though, think about it: people love the writing/stories from BG, and a sequel to that is just going to piss people off. Dragonspear is a good example of this; I don't think people would have been happy with that regardless of quality because it's fucking with characters they care about.

What do people love about Icewind Dale? Combat and good encounters, and a story that gets the hell out of your way. Perfect for modern CRPG developer, all you have to do is make tough fights and put snow everywhere and you're good. Don't even have to write party dialog!

 

[Lilura]

Funny how many of you nimrods worm out of the woodwork when BG3 gets mentioned. even 'tards I've not seen posting before. so many newfags! For a moment, I felt like i was on RPGWatch where most of you should be wallowing.

Aren't you happy with your current gen crap like the Kickstarters that claim to be BG spiritual successors?

I hope BG3 comes out for one reason and one reason alone: it will get more people playing the first two, which means more hits for my blog.

But I wouldn't play it like you desperados.

What a disgrace you all are. SHAME.

You wouldn’t play it because you no longer enjoy playing RPGs. By the way, that was a depressing revelation. I write about things I don’t enjoy purely to get more eyeballs, too, but that’s because my employer pays me. And hey, if your blog helps pay the bills, that’s great. But let’s have no illusions here: when we write about subjects we have expertise in but no passion for, purely to grab eyeballs, we are hacks. I beg you, if you’re going to blog about your hobby, pick a hobby you still like!

 

[Tigranes]

Did somebody say balders gate please please read my blog did you know i have a blog about it oh god please read me i need it

 

[Lilura]

"Please read my lowly shitposts and witless jabs at Lilura. I need it. I don't even have a blog and I have no impact at all!" - Tigranes , in this sphere, a non-entity, a Nothing.

That is not the definition of a hack. And that's not what I do.

 

[you know what time it is]

Well Owlcat isn't happening (alas), if it's inEptile or Obsidian - it's going to suck, the only half-decent option is Larian, but idk. Doubt anything good will come out of this.

 

[glass blackbird]

v2 patch of grimoire will replace screen with new one reading baldurs gate 3

 

[Dreed]

i was

Shame on you Lilura, I expected better from you

 

[Modron]

clearly what we really need is icewind dale 3

But PoE is Icewind Dale 3.

 

[MicoSelva]

Even if BG3 is in the works AND it is a proper RPG like we want it to be AND it is being made by people who have the budget & skill to make it right... Who cares at this point. It is a pie in the sky, compared to Kingmaker, which is a few (big) patches away from being the BG3 we need right now.

Get on with it, Owlcat!

 

[Abu Antar]

The Black Hound was never meant to be. Let sleeping dogs lie.

 

[Murk]

BEvers

Boobles, that you?

re: topic -- I fucking hope not. Let the name and the franchise remain, Beamdog raped it's corpse enough.

I'd rather Larian stick to working on their own ideas and keep trying new things. Just get better writers than whoever they put on OS2.

 

[YanBG]

BG3 sounds great, but i hope it's not too much like OS2. Maybe they should hire a smaller studio to do it old-school.

 

[a cut of domestic sheep prime]

Even if NWN 3 is in the works AND it is a proper RPG like we want it to be AND it is being made by people who have the budget & skill to make it right... Who cares at this point. It is a pie in the sky, compared to Kingmaker, which is a few (big) patches away from being the NWN 3 we need right now.

fixed

I like the game too, but BG it is not.

Just so everyone knows the score, Tigranes' claim to fame is what's linked to in his sig: a written Let's Play of Baldur's Gate on the Obsiditard forums.

Where, btw, he has nearly 11,000 posts.

That's right, Tigranes posted a Let's Play on the Obsiditard forums instead of on the 'Dex. He also has more posts on the Obsiditard forums than on the 'Dex. Over 3,000 more.

What a faggot.

In contrast, I have 1 mil views per year blog packed with authoritative BG write-ups that people are gonna be referencing for the next 10 years at least. I also don't post on the Obsiditard forums.

Thus, Lilura wins and Tigranes loses.

Larian denied it . Inxile ? fargo would have said it, obsidian or some very shitty third rate studio.Well that doesnt prevent us to click on lilura's blog link, she will feel a lot better to have IP from all around the world, its a bit like doing humanitarian help.

 

[Shadenuat]

He was working there.

Obviously meaning Microsoft is buying Obsidian to put them to work on #BGIII.
