Pillars of Eternity Beta Discussion [GAME RELEASED, GO TO NEW THREAD]

[Athelas]

The Infinity Engine nostalgia will be driving the sales on this. I expect it to do very very well.

Does bonescraper have some kind of point? Does anyone actually want "AAA" obsidian games?

No, i want them to stop begging for money, and stop counting on luck.

I want to see what an unrestrained Obsidian can do. Like Fallout: New Vegas without the F3 baggage.

Did you just quote IGN?

And D:OS is nothing like BG anyway. I know it's personal opinion but really: story is shit, graphics are for 6 years old, combat is console gimmick crap.
No idea where anyone would find even the slightest vibe of BG/IE games in D:OS.

[Athelas]

Armored Warfare is a CryEngine game set in a sci-fi future where tanks rule the world.

 

[CyberWhale]

Next Obsidian MMO - World of Mechs.

It's called Alpha Protocol.

PoE will sell more than any other kickstarter game.

 

[LizardWizard]

D:OS was mediocre and had no where near same pre-release hype. Of course PoE is going to outsell it.

Letting Paradox handle all the boxed/Euro side of things was a pretty suave deal as well.

 

[Nihiliste]

Downloading this baby now. Don't have time to play until next week though, going on a ski trip this weekend. I'm reminded of my inner nerd when I realize I'd almost rather play PoE

at least I won't have to feel guilty about staying inside

[ArchAngel]

Am I only one that feels like this Armored Warfare crap is not learning from mistakes of the past where Interplay was earning money on RPG and wasting them on non-RPGs?!

 

[Mastermind]

How are they wasting money? Someone is paying them to make it.

 

[imweasel]

D:OS was mediocre

Have you checked out which game is our RPG of the year, newfag?

(hint: it's D:OS)

 

[GrainWetski]

No idea where anyone would find even the slightest vibe of BG/IE games in D:OS.

They haven't played the games they name drop. It's only there to make their marketing seem legit.

Even here you have people that think they got some mythical "resident RPG nerd" that lives in their offices to play this. People are gullible.

 

[Nebuchadnezzar]

Pillars of Eternity > Divinity Original Sin

Oh shit, Codex regulars just got out-edged by the new guys. Time for us to turn over the baton I guess.

 

[TheEntitledOne]

Waiting for a Rance +PoE crossover.

 

[ZoddGuts]

D:OS sold around 800K in 6 months will see how PoE compares 6 months from now.

People whining about the theme again? Didn't we do that last month? I'll repeat what I said then: http://www.rpgcodex.net/forums/inde...er-keys-available.93694/page-329#post-3736974

I think it's been improved since then, too.

I don't hear anything wrong with it per-say.. I do admit it is pretty forgettable compared to some of the classics / greats I have heard before.. That doesn't mean it's bad though.

I haven't heard of half the games on that list.. What the fuck is Robocraft? Unturned? What?

 

[The Fish]

I've spent fifteen years waiting for a game like this and now I'll probably complete it within five or six days and then not bother touching it again for several years, even if it turns out great. What the fuck was I hoping for during all those days spent on fucking video game forums and fantasizing about an incline? Six moderately enjoyable days? Fuck everything.
