Obsidian's Pillars of Eternity [BETA RELEASED, GO TO THE NEW THREAD]

[tuluse]

What I learned from watching the stream yesterday:

I wish I was drinking buddies with MCA.

Tim Cain seems super chill, and I could imagine spending hours just talking about RPG mechanics with him.

Josh Sawyer hates people.

There are some surprising hot women working at Obsidian. Once again Obsidian > Bioware.

Anonymous people on the internet will say stupid and/or inappropriate things, oh wait I didn't learn that at all since it's been common knowledge for 20 years.

 

[Shadenuat]

Someone need to FRAPS that steam-stuff, seems it usually happens when I'm asleep already really want to see MCA getting killed by wolves right after heading down from zeppelin in Arcanum.

BioWare! Get in here immediately!

Yes my master.

There are not enough brofists in the world for this!

This is bullshit, as my post was clearly funnier.

Oh Master, years ago we made this game called Baldur's Gate and then basically stopped making these kinds of games to make them more next gen and on consoles and in 3D, to enhance the cinem...

SHUT UP!

Who the hell is this Obsidian? Did we ever work with them?

Oh yes Master, they once came before your greatness and proposed making a new classic cRPG Ultima series but you in your infinite and evil wisdom laughed at them and shut the door in their face. Since the marketing department found that classi...

SHUT UP! Oh yes.,,,,, I remember them. That...Feargus fellow. Classic games! HA!

Dont wanna burst your bubble, but romances or "adult romantic interations" as i think it was put in the interview are confirmed to be in the game.

Also, you underestimate what a romance between characters can do from a storytelling perspective, Dialogue & Inner party "banter" was what made "old-school" RPGs for me. Thats Why BG & FO are my favorite RPGs of all time.

Why all of those idiots think mature relationships = romances?

 

[Brzęczyszczykiewicz]

Bioware had romances subforum?

Why all of those idiots think mature relationships = romances?

Because some people think that sex makes everything "mature".

 

[LeStryfe79]

Damn, they OWE us an update!

It's because they think that when they'll finely get some booty* they will be all mature and grown-up.

they won't.

That was rhetorical question, or something.

BTW you should all PM Tigranes over at the forums to tell him your issues with Tale or any other mods. People say Tigranes is a bro but I suspect he is just the minion assigned to spy on us.

If he can help reign in the other mods it will prove his bro-hood.

 

[Semper]

Josh Sawyer hates people.

oh, come one... why all this picking on josh? he even announced that this would happen.
he simply ain't one of the party folk and he's not alone. brian menze played the whole time with that plastic leg; that rabbi kaffeepott just stand there kissing his cup; that other dude browsed reddit almost the whole time; scott just stand there and did nothing, justin too. admittedly they laughed/smiled more often compared to josh, but that's him. he's more of an introverted guy and probably needs his closest friends around to really feel relaxed. all those fucking comments about his mood made it even worse.

despite the fact that he doesn't like parties he showed up and that's worth a

@suejak: your comment was hilarious :D

BTW the first time the kid entered (the one that wanted to become president lol) it was alright, it made for some funny moments atleast.

Agree, I'm tired of dealing with Tale. Deletes my posts and other codexers but leaves the romance crowd to make all the passive agressive insults about people against them they want. I might get banned because I'm arguing with Tale again for PMing me. Only mod who keeps PMing me about my posts, probably only one deleting them too.

Over 100 people in that damn thread. All from Bioware because that romance section got shut down. Thread is moving a lot faster than it ever did before.

Well, someone keeps deleting my abrasive off topic posts too, but without even the courtesy of chewing me over the PM system. I am sad.

 

[hoverdog]

If we get a Stronghold, maybe we'll get a Lady/Lord to marry as well?

Maybe you can decide to have encounters (as in the Witcher) as well.

And you children start as PC in PE2.

And they meet the unclaimed children from you affairs from PE1...

now I'm not sure if you're serious or just trolling. bsn version of Poe's law.

Why, serious of course, can't see any trolling..

oh for fucks sake

 

[oldmanpaco]

Tale deletes anything he thinks is combative. Of course since he thinks everything but unicorns and lollipops are combative he deletes a lot of shit.

And he is not to happy with the sexual imaginary behind lollipops. Once he works it out in his head they may be out as well.

I just posted that I found it suspect that this thread is full of a bunch of people asking for romances after Bioware forums were closed and how they got their forums closed. Made a comment "We don't want your kind around here." as a kind of joke and entire post was deleted. Could have edited out that sentence if they wanted to. I don't see anything wrong with not wanting people who got the romance section shut down in their forums due to arguing around.

Also made a post after that showing how there were over 100 people in the thread and had to be from Bioware and they'll just continue to pollute the thread and forums like they did over at Bioware that got those forums shut down.

I don't remember what the other codexers posted, but it was pretty tame.

Wtf, their mod-team is in shambles. We need someone like Brother None there as a mod.

If it makes you happy, some post of people complaining about me making fun of Biodrones also got deleted, although that was probably because with my posts they made zero sense.

 

[oldmanpaco]

My post about unrequited tranny love was deleted.

Also my post about lizardman sex.

Also my post about ogre endowment.

Also my posy about STDs. That one hurt because they were in Wastleand.
