sorry....

 

[Daedalos]

The art really is next-level isn't it. Damn. Not so long now until release.

Get sufficiently hyped.

 

[Grotesque]

Will it be as buggy as Stygian al launch?

 

[fantadomat]

Sooo you could talk with your skillz, can you fuck them also? I always love lockpicking and pickpocketing,so i do hope for threesome.

 

[Mr. Magniloquent]

I'm trying to temper my expectations, but the goals and design of this game are very direct to many of the features I have wanted for a long time.

Let's hope the game survives its own hype.

 

[Optimist]

I guess it's just my ancestry speaking, but I enjoy these in-game lonesome vistas/ images of sitting dejectedly on swings with your pal so much more than oneiric Bosh-like stills.

Day 1 must buy

 

[Optimist]

Don't you just 'what?' at me and leave, Maxie

It's just that on the last few pages there's quite a lot of attention directed towards thought cabinet/ skill screen art. It sets the tone nicely, and I can appreciate it, but parts of trailer showing our main hobo giving a thousand-yard stare to solemnly decrepit environments drew me in so much more. They need some compliments as well!

oneiric

 

[DalekFlay]

I just want to say I think releasing this between Greedfall and The Outer Worlds was maybe a bad idea. But then again maybe I'm one of the few who plays both "2D" and 3D RPGs.

is it illegal for art majors to say 'dreamlike'

it's a conspiracy sponsored by Google

We don't use the f-word here, this a safe place. We simply say "Underdeveloped muscles".

 

[ArchAngel]

I hope the game will be well optimized and will not run like crap. Or at least they improve upon that by the time I can buy it.

I saw Maxie at a café the other day. He seemed upset. I asked him what was the matter. He said he'd just seen his crush. She'd gone off with an art major before he worked up the courage to talk to her. Now they're married with two kids, a boy and a girl. And a shibe, named Wally. He thanked me for listening and left. He forgot to pay for his coffee though so I had to straighten that out. I hope he's OK, he seemed really broken up about it.

 

[Butter]

And that art major's name...

 

[vortex]

We don't use the f-word here, this a safe place. We simply say "Underdeveloped muscles".

Or you can just say 'person has hidden muscles'.

Unprecedented social commentary.

Ultra Dark Toxic (TM) social commentary.

 

[Adidas-Clichèd Cringe]

Looks like some people are already getting offended by "terrible optics". I will be mighty impressed if the game manages to make both left- and right-wing political internet warriors mad.

So far i'm getting a huge leftist vibe from the game.

well it's made by communists

Inexplicable feminist agenda already hurt some butts on that tolerant board

 

[vortex]

Inexplicable feminist agenda which actually prefers men and respects men. Imagine the feminist outrage for this game.

My prediction is that it will righteously piss off stick-up-their-arse conservatards and liberal tolerati. People with actual radical politics of any variety, probably not so much. A good litmus test is that if you're likely to get offended on somebody else's behalf, you're in for a rough ride.
