Incline Chris Avellone Appreciation Station

[Fairfax]

They also speculated that Beamdog might do Arcanum: EE :/.

Seemed like the guy was kidding, though. He didn't even know who owned it, and MCA basically said "good luck getting that from Activision".

MCA said he (they) would prefer if Nameless One could also be a woman . How much did they pay him to say that?

He's talked about that in older interviews as well.

When Chris Avellone replies to (or likes) your twitter posts


Not that I know anything about that or how it feels, just hear rumors.

MCA also mentioned that the original actor they wanted to do the VO for Morte was Steve Buscemi.

Another thing that Philip Daigle mentioned is that apparently the M in PST's logo was supposed to allude to a person getting crucified. That lines up quite well with the existence (and later removal) of Christianity themes in the game mentioned by the Tim Donley at some point during this interview.

how delusional you are.

 

[Fairfax]

Hey, Fairfax, wanted to apologize – I’ve been silent for a while, mostly because of work (PSTEE, Divinity 2, and other unannounced stuff) and because I had to do other interviews (for work, which will become apparent).

So if you see some interviews cropping up, they were either (1) recorded and transcribed – like Glixel (which I did at GDC) or (2) I had to do them for a project I’m on.

I'll be gone next week (at Reboot, with Tim Cain and T-Ray, talking about Fallout), but I'll try to get in gear when I return.

Interview will be back on track soon.

 

[Neanderthal]

Nice to see T-Ray mentioned for once, even though he twoc'd my Highwayman.

I have Avellone and Cain both 'ignored.' Not sure why, not sure how.

No livestream for both.

Any clues at to whether these will ever hit the net?

If it's anything like last year, it might take a while, and some might not hit at all. But maybe those Croats will improve this year.

Are all the panels from last year available? Could only find like 10 of them on youtube. Guess it was the ones that were live-streamed?
Hope the two panels above come up, even if the Fallout one is likely just a bunch of stories they've told before elsewhere...

Some other stuff on there that sounds interesting but isn't livestreamed too. Dave Gibbons one and Chris Taylor's Total Annihilation retrospective especially.

 

[Infinitron]

I don't think they livestreamed anything last year.

Livestream? It's going on here: https://www.twitch.tv/rebootdevelop

Currently Croteam co-foduner is talking about meaning of life.

Or if you mean MCA panels, like infinitron said few posts earlier:

If it's anything like last year, it might take a while, and some might not hit at all. But maybe those Croats will improve this year.

 

[PlanHex]

This G2A panel is hilarious. I should've bought popcorn.
