Baldur's Gate Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance series released on PC

[FriendlyMerchant]

I never actually played Dark Alliance. I only played the spinoff game "Champions of Norath" and "Champions" Return to Arms." Now there's a game that knew how to design characters

More importantly...

what a neat game if the balinse hadn't been so broken. But I doubt they'll fix any of that

Wasn't Norrath a title MCA worked on?

Senior Designer on this game, and Level Designer on CoN.

Huh, I always thought this was just a coincidence but it was probably entirely intentional now that I realized this.

That's EQ btw
TSS expansion, came out about a year or two after CoN iirc

DA games are solid action rpgs. They are what they are. Of course, the modern version with the IWD crew' of Dark Alliiance was pure zhit. They, like most modern devs, don't get while those older games were liked.

 

[janior]

why those games are disliked? they look very good

Too busy jacking to share it?

Champions of Norrath was pretty sweet and definitely showed a progression from Dark Alliance. It's too bad they didn't keep doing them, they were better than a lot of the ARPGs kicking around now.

That's some quality shit right here. You'd think Everquest had more porn but I guess that stuff started with WoW.

... or most of it was lost with time?
Maybe they were scattered all over the (old) web, unlike these days where you get a bunch of sites to drop all that crap and forget... until it resurface later.

The first part is more polished, when it comes to the quality of graphics, but the sequel is more fun to play thanks to the necromancer being included as one of the characters. At the end he becomes a one man army who can reanimate and obliterate everything. When it comes to items, they are very basic compared even to vanilla Diablo. Finished both of them through emulation. I need to check Champions of Norath as well, since it was on my list as well.

Champioms should be better done since it came after and was made by the same. All thanks to Bis being little bitches trying to throw them under the bus and steal credit for their work. A common theme for BIS/INTERPLAY. EVIL

It looks so cutely-rough-hewn my joy-stick is all trembling from nostalgia-anticipation. Also, no dashes were harmed during the writing of these two sentences.

if this sells well then hopefully they'll be able to fund shadows of amn 3: godhood

trust the plan

 

[SumDrunkGuy]

Champions next plz and thank you.

 

[SumDrunkGuy]

I doubt they'll port it. Champions od Norrath is not Baldur's Gate. It's Everquest!

Oh who cares? Everything else is the same. Same engine, same gameplay, same developer. Everything in Champions is just done better. If they don't then all this Dark Alliance port bullshit was for nothing. People don't want Dark Alliance they want Champions.

 

[Abu Antar]

Not the same publisher.

 

[SumDrunkGuy]

Here's the petiton make sure you all sign it:

https://www.change.org/p/time-warner-remaster-champions-of-norrath-for-ps4-and-xbox-1

Let's get this train moving buddy boyos. And I'm not even worried about Return to Arms because the sale figures of CoN with force them to remaster it. Let's go Champions!

 

[Volourn]

Petitions are for punks. I wouldn't even sign a petition that demanded the 10 hottest women in the world have to have sex with me. Lmao

 

[SumDrunkGuy]

Sounds like Dark Alliance 2 doesn't offer much in the way of replayability. Just a unlockable Drizzt douche and some other random fag, plus a higher difficulty (first game is the same way). What is the point of being a Diablo 2 clone if you're not gonna offer a near infinite loot grind? That's the entire point! Hard pass.
