Yeah that would be an.... odd arrangement.

I kind of hoped he would rope in his band members.

 

[Marquess Cornwallis]

A metal cover with piano and vocals only? o_O I could get in my band, but they all have actual day jobs...

Do an Elvis number then. "It's Now or Never" would be kind of fitting for just before the end of the campaign.

 

[ForkTong]

I'm better at the Elvis 70s songs. Not that good at "O sole mio".

 

[MicoSelva]

I'm a huge fan of the 6 char party as well.

How would that fit into summoning elementals? Haven't You mentioned that the engine supports up to 6 party members in one of the videos?

 

[Gragt]

Modders will fix it.

 

[Jaesun]

Not if it is hard coded.

I've been watching Swen play with Angry Joe and in all honesty it looks like they're having a lot of fun!

I hope he doens't do all that chroma key stunt on this one, just gameplay footage & comment, or he'll take forever to edit & upload the video...

Do it man, try to record something and put it up for the kickstarter finale. I'll put in an extra 6 bux if you do!

I feel like in one of those 90' good hearted movies where the underdog team of a random sport is playing the match of their life and there is the usual ending climax to emotions&feelings.
I can't pull more money out of my pockets (not sure I still have pockets anyway), but I'm really crossing my finger for those stretch goals.

Redeem yourself, Joe!

2nd part of Ohmwreckers preview:

 

[Diablo169]

Angry Joe will likely be positive about the game, despite his shortcomings he does like the older style RPGS as well.

 

[BobtheTree]

What's the actual limit it can handle? I mean, if you're playing with 5 bros, what happens if everyone summons an elemental and hire a henchmen, going to insane 18 menbers in the party?

I know the infinity engine set a limit on how many summoned creatures you could have at a time. I imagine Divinity will have something like that as well.

 

[Arkeus]

ForkTong, i am REALLY hoping that the Flee button, as well as the pyramids, don't make the fighting irrelevant and too damn easy. There really need to be something that makes the whole 'teleport away when in danger and come back full-life against crippled enemies' not THE tactic.

 

[Zeriel]

The sailor pronouncing "ethereal" as "cereal" is great. I don't know why some people hate Larian's humor--it's mild enough that it doesn't smack you over the head with it, just the way I like it so it doesn't interfere with the narrative.

 

[Jack Dandy]

Seconding Arkeus.

However, from the Stream I remember Swen mentioning that this is NOT how the final version of the game will work. You supposedly have to run to some place on the map, and can only activate it from there.

Care to confirm, ForkTong?

 

[Jaesun]

It is a Pre-Alpha build.

 

[Arkeus]

It is a Pre-Alpha build.

I know, and i know there will be a special system for fleeing, i am just hoping that Fleeing, as well as clever use of the teleporter pyramids (for unconventional fleeing), doesn't utterly negate any difficulty.

Just finished almost 3 hour session with @AngryJoeShow. Quite an adventure

I don't think he would have played so long had he not liked it.

Well, he is Angry Joe.

 

[felipepepe]

Damn, upload that quickly! Need money for 650k (and 666k) goals!

 

[Lancehead]

Do we know (or have any idea of) the $ 666,000 stretch goal?
