If that were true marvel capeshit would be engaging, too. But it's not.

Special chosen one heritage is a tired plot device. It's pretty fucking close to the bottom of the barrel.
You're being overly brutal, my friend, but I can see your point.

I agree that the 'special superpowered chosen one' plot device is located pretty close to the bottom of the barrel.

But if one's taste is located at the very bottom, it does feel engaging and intriguing.

Ohhh yeaaah, chosen one bad. Case in point: PST, BG, Dark Souls, Kotor are all shit games. Edgy! You're so edgy, wow, like House MD. All girls will want you. Just keep on with your nasal whining and you'll absolutely see a girl's pussy some day, I'm sure.

I'm on an actual spaceship. No joke.

You're just being weird at this point.

Codex Year of the Donut Serpent in the Staglands Dead State Divinity: Original Sin Project: Eternity Torment: Tides of Numenera Wasteland 2 Shadorwun: Hong Kong Divinity: Original Sin 2 A Beautifully Desolate Campaign Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire Pathfinder: Kingmaker Pathfinder: Wrath I'm very into cock and ball torture I helped put crap in Monomyth


In this third segment, the great Winston Douglas Wood chats about the final Phantasie games. We chat about some of the more intriguing mechanics such as limb loss and parents for your characters. We also talk about the development of Phantasie IV in Japan and why it wasn't released in the US. Finally, we chat about Star Command and its relationship (or lack thereof) to SSI's other SF games such as Buck Rogers.

Winston has never actually played Phantasie IV!

One more episode left. Matt will be recording the interview with Brian Heins tomorrow.

The Outer Worlds - now on Matt Chat and therefore a classic:



This episode is the first of a 3-part series of interviews with Brian Heins. Project Director of Obsidian. In this segment we chat about The Outer Worlds, focusing on its setting and what's innovative about its CRPG mechanics.

Brian says he's the "content director" on an unannounced project that won't be revealed for a couple of years. A "large RPG", currently early in preproduction with a small team.

Cut flaw from The Outer Worlds: If you rejected taking a flaw three times in a row, the game would have given you the Narcissism flaw. :lol: He seems to hint that something like that might be added back in an expansion.

He's a bright guy, fun interview.

In this episode Brian and I finish up with The Outer Worlds before moving onto Tyranny and taking some questions sent in by some of the dirtiest rats I ever took an ax to.

And the panels will be back, but I'm editing them down into individual panel vids so that it's easier for people to find what they're interested in. I'll begin reposting them a bit at a time between now and when we start doing our monthly LockDownCon chats in August.


Did anyone watch the Matt panel while it was available at that link?

Hmmm, Matt sounds like he doesn't have his next interview locked in yet.

Oh:
