Yeah I thought Kevin Michael Richardson did a good job in his various BG roles.

I am a fan of narrative story telling like this or through Darklands style COYA segments with books and whatnot in the game world fillling in the gaps or providing flavour.

Looks like fucking Baldur's Gate. Even the stances of the NPCs is 100% Baldur's Gate. That gives me a major fucking hard on.


yeah... but will it have this?



I hope this kind of storytelling will make a comeback.


I forgot how bored and "I don't want to be here, but money is money" the BG narrator sounded.


Polish dubbing of BG games is as usual superior.
:outrage:

Enjoy the Revolution! Another revolution around the sun that is. 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
Fun linguistic fact: in the middle ages, "thee"/"thou" was the second person singular and "you" was second person plural, but also used as a form of respect as in other languages. It's just that "thee"/"thou" fell out of use.

Of course, all this doesn't mean that BG did it correctly, as there were characters such as Safana who had much more archaic speech than the rest.

Another fun fact: the narrator is Sarevok's voice actor. I think he sounds solemn/ominous rather than bored. It's obvious he's trying to put some intonation in his speech.

Safana? The slutty thief chick? You might be confused with somebody else.

Gamespot has an article for PE going up tomorrow

Also, I have a cool thing going up tomorrow morning on Pillars of Eternity, so BOOM!

I reckon there's a 6AM press embargo or something, we may see a whole crop of articles arise. Perhaps even that Beta update.

If a miracle happens and you ever bother and try reclaiming your brain, know that it stays hidden in a crease of your large intestine.
