Nice one.

 

[Sensuki]

Pretty much asked questions that have all been asked before but at least Chris likes to elaborate on stuff.

 

[Roguey]

Project Eternity, for all you fans out there wondering, will be on sale sometime Second Quarter 2014.

It'll get bumped to third or fourth.

people say epic all the time and it makes my teeth hurt

don't ever work for a game developer or you will die

do you mean this in the sense of your normal workaday colleages calling the coffe especially epic and todays sunrise as epic, or do you mean this in the sense of the directors and the managers always being like "we need epic scope" and "this scene has to be properly epic"

both

i banned it as a descriptor for a while because it was really out of hand.

Every time someone says Epic, get out your phone and play Faith No More's Epic. Eventually they may understand.

 

[Infinitron]

Didn't they replace it with MAJESTIC back in 2011?

 

[Sensuki]

I see his point to be honest, these days epic is one of those marketing buzz words that usually means shit.

Jesus Christ talk about loaded questions. What a shitty interviewing technique.

they've got all of the forums as sounding boards, why get a focus group? I do like "The Eternity Chronicles" though. TEC for short.

I hate "darkness over shadows" or whatever derpy name it was. TEC: Dyrwood would be just fine for me.

"The Eternity Saga" so elder scrolls gets bumped out of the acronym

FYI, it seems you need to be logged in to see the file.

 

[Duraframe300]

We're planning to build some of the first Endless Paths levels in the upcoming milestone

 

[garren]

How about you show us a piece of the game while you're at it

 

[~RAGING BONER~]

this game won't be ready before 2015

Hmm, that's true. DarkUnderlord, can you make it so that guests can see attached images too?

 

[Xeon]

Does that mean he logged in to his old account to see the image or does he have a secret account?

 

[Crooked Bee]

He didn't log in to his old account. So it must be the latter.

 

[Delterius]

DU will need to buy a new server just to store the next years worth of shitposting and bickering that this thread will accumulate. The Potato market is doomed.

He didn't log in to his old account. So it must be the latter.

coffeetable posted it on SomethingAwful, he probably saw it there.

Is done.

 

[cherry blossom]

It would be nice if they could come up with a "... of eternity" type of title that signified the game, and future games, as small parts of a larger tale. Sort of like The Elder Scrolls.

Prophecies of Eternity? Also nice abbreviation: POE.

 

[Ninjerk]

Echoes of Eternity?

 

[Sensuki]

Do you reckon the Player Stronghold is above the Endless Paths?

The Location itself won't be called "The Endless Paths of Od Nua" on the map I don't think, though I could be wrong.

Hopefully they put content in the above ground parts of the ruins as well like Durlag's Tower, even if minor.

Oh, there's something above it, all right.

 

[Ninjerk]

Probably an altar to rape
