Who wants to troll this guy in the comments?

It's always hilarious when norms get trolled by the Codex. Good job

I kinda like Polina's art. Look what she can do http://www.polinadesign.com/

I think this art is mostly shit. It's technically alright but it doesn't inspire any kind of feeling, it's...what's the word...oh yeah - banal, shit, boring.

The OP is pretty it mentions Sigil and Athkatla exclusively.

Then there is second post:

I want at least one big settlement. It always feels weird when a game has no big population center, it makes the world seem somewhat dead. Big cities are also great for having faction bases, shops, quests, and people to talk to all in one central location. Plus, big cities are great for allowing you to see the culture of the society you are currently in.

That's why I loved the Imperial City in Oblivion, or Denerim in DA:O. Hopefully Project Eternity has a big, explorable city as well!

Someone actually liked Denerim?

Will there be male rape victims in the game?

This game is supposed to deal with dark, mature themes, and what's more mature than rape? This is a serious issue and Obsidian has traditionally dealt with serious issues very well. I think Project: Eternity is a great shot for games to transcend some of their past limitations and begin to examine a traditionally-ignored reality. I'm very hopeful on this front.

Troll or what? Not familiar with this guy.

He has an interesting history of posts. I forgot what pseudo-philosophical stance he used to push and create wormholes of politico-theologico-moral explosions, since we have/had a bunch of those, like a Soviet-supremacist.

Damnit, it's gone.

Since Sawyer's insistent on putting rape into this game there better be some male-on-male stuff going on.

Boob armor - massive fucking LOL. It just shows that all those sugar coated words in interviews, about clash of cultures, factional struggles and shit is bullshit. You can't expect anything of depth from the kind of people who are ok with this juvenile crap they pass as concept art. Boob armor. Holy cow. This is golden. I felt like I was looking at Deviant Art page of some 10 year old little shitstain.

They fixed it, but yeah it's still disappointing it even existed as a concept in the first place and they were actually testing the waters to see if it'd slide through without comment (as if).

It's like in PS:T. Problem?

 

[Infinitron]

Lots of people trying too hard in that thread.

 

[Jaesun]

heh honestly I don't even remember. There was screen shake on critical in the IE games?

That's just transference.

 

[Infinitron]

Yes. And those twits are acting like it's some kind of Hollywood graphics whoring.

 

[Jaesun]

heh ok thanks.

 

[Roguey]

You could disable the screen shake if you wanted.

 

[Shadenuat]

Have you tried that?

No, because it's still WIP, and I don't believe NWN2 campaigns with it's trash encounters and hundreds of orcs are suited for that. But I wish someday Storm of Zehir got a mod like that As for PE... who knows, if moders are working on turn-based Fallout 3, perhaps PE will see that day too

 

[Nigro]

lol who cares about boob armor, this game will have female warriors in full plate armor fighting toe to toe against man...realism already is not something to be expected, besides always nice to see some boobs
