Development Info Dragon Age dialogues leaked!

[Jasede]

It might come as a surprise, but what is viewed as "gay" in Western society may not be "gay" in Japan.

Effeminate pretty boys, for example.

In Japan, "gay" is associated with body-builders, tall, burly, muscled men that sweat a lot, not scrawny metrosexuals that take care of their looks and read vanity fair.

 

[Shoelip]

Most of the characters in 300 were probably gay... well they would have been if 300 had any historical acuracy whatsoever.

The setting sucks, the dialogue sucks, the skill system sucks, seriously.

now i only need evidence, aww just wait till you played it, you`ll agree with me.

IMHO, both of those are gay...

With the exception of the demons, it was quite historically accurate.

That seemed serious.

I dunno. The typical Greek man being what he is, the soldiers in 300 should either have looked like they were wearing a sweater or spent a LOT more time shaving each other like a pack of monkeys. Not that either would make for pleasant viewing, but we are talking historical accuracy here.

 

[MetalCraze]

will there be retarded mini-games, Mr. Gaider?

 

[FrancoTAU]

I think losing a World War really warps one sense of sexuality.

 

[Sir_Brennus]

Why is this a news-post, thoughI know the Codex needs content, but why can't you - we - report something interesting instead?

I don't know. Why can't we? What RPGs are in development?

Serious post in a generally unfunny thread:

- Chosen: Well of Souls (aka Frater)
- Escape from Paradise City
- Legend - Hand of God
- Day Watch
- Dungeon Hero
- Winterheart's Guild
- Hard to be a God
- Hellgate: London
- Legends of Dawn
- Grotesque
- Rise of the Argonauts
- Not the Time for Dragons
- Numen
- Tales of Walenir
- Avencast - Rise of the Mage
- Dungeon Siege - Space Siege

'nuff said.

 

[Jaime Lannister]

But he's still a pussy compared to Chris Avellone.

They both post on RPGCodex, right? I think that's a call for a showdown.

We only have this little jab at Dave Gaider.

But yeah, a showdown would be cool. The creator of PST versus the maker of BG2 - an epic battle with already known results.

 

[Jora]

'nuff said.

Probably every single one of those games will be garbage.

However, some lazy newsposter should really write that Darghul newspost I've been demanding for ages. Wolf Mittag has talked a lot about how he has imporved the game instead of just porting his old DOS version to Windows.

Tim Cain also posted here. So if he will join... well... results will be even more known.

 

[Lumpy]

MCA can easily pwn Timothy with his cartoon skillz.

Oh... but... hey - Timothy still has games that are better than anything that MCA created!
And... and Tim's face is one of icons of fallout.exe (and fallout2.exe too btw)!
And where is your Chris, huh?!

 

[Lumpy]

If you don't think PST is better than Fallout...

 

[aries202]

Ok, that's it.

The Greek men in 300 were not Greeks, they were Spartans. The Persians under Xerxes actually had women in the government and such whereas in the Greek city states people, women were denied the right of citizenship asnd thus public service.

And the Spartans actually lived under a strict military rule, more akin or similar to a fascist state that the democracy in Athens.

So, let's pretend that Athens is the EU and Sparta is the US for a moment? Se any resemblances??

Oh, mand obviosly Dave was joking :D in the linked thread... and continues to joke and jest in this thread

And yes, an interview (or a showdown) with both Chris A. & David G. would be totally like .. awsum...

 

[Helton]

You're saying Spartans weren't Greeks, then?

 

[sabishii]

Not quite sure what he said, because he said both:

"The Greek men in 300 were not Greeks, they were Spartans."

and

"The Greek men in 300 were not Greeks, they were Spartans."

 

[sheek]

and

"The Greek men in 300 were not Greeks, they were Spartans."

 

[Elhoim]

Besider they were not 300, but 7000 lead by 300.

 

[KevinV12000]

Guys, guys, guys, c'mon. I come here because I know the posters here are much more intelligent than your average gamer forum. So it pains me to see you guys making the common mistake of confusing

a) the 300 gay lovers that made up the Theban Sacred Band

and

b) the 300 Spartans who defended Thermopylae

Let it slip any further and the next thing you know you'll be playing some damn console game thinking to yourself "yeah, this ain't so bad."

Hold the line, codex. Hold. The. Line.

- Chosen: Well of Souls (aka Frater)

Frater? You don't mean that shitty, low-budget Diablo-wannabe that came out some time ago, do you?

*list of action RPG, action games with RPG elements, and games that really shouldn't be called RPGs*

Are you trying to make a point that there are more action RPGs in development than the market can support? Nicely done, old boy.
