Quit being a dick to rats.

It really is a JES self insert then.

Should have went the other way around and shaved the stache but kept the beard

 

[Modron]

Nein, you can't have a beard without a stache unless you're amish. Just not a good look.

He should become a benchmark for "on a scale of 0 to Soyer, how fag are you?".

All those years of name-dropping Darklands in his list of inspirations, and this is the outcome?

Pathetic.

Are you saying this doesn't remind you of Darklands?

It's hard to take you seriously if that's the case.

Darklands had better fonts.

Game studies with focus on queer and transgender studies

Oh boy.

Hello based department?!

 

[hivemind]

wish I studied that

I wish you studied that too. Then you couldn't afford a home or internet.

Pentiment is Obsidian’s best game, and it’s barely a game.

I liked it, though

edit: I take that back, alpha brotocol is clearly their best

Some people make fun of this game's name.

ireallyreallyhatesafemode asked:
Would a spiritual sequel to Pentiment be called Palimpsest? Are there any plans or ideas for one?

The original non-working title of Pentiment actually was Palimpsest! Microsoft legal sensed potential difficulty with securing that name so I renamed it to Pentiment.
And no, I have no plans to make any sort of sequel, spiritual or otherwise, for Pentiment. I always intended it as a stand alone story. It may inspire ideas (hopefully not just for me!) in the future, but I'm happy with where we've left it.

A sequel to Pediment should maintain the architectural theme; I recommend Pilaster, though this isn't the only possibility.

If nothing else I can give Josh a thumbs up for making a one-and-done game. That's increasily rare even amongst indies nowadays.

He probably has ptsd due to how much this place bullied him for Deadfire and will never make a sequel ever again

Pediment 2: Impediment

Or, perhaps a reference to Sawyer's self insert character(s): Pederast
