Interview Swen Vincke and Chris Avellone talk Divinity: Original Sin 2 on The PC Gamer Show

[Roguey]

The dude's voice is sweet music to my ears.

You like the effeminate Californian accent?

 

[a mod]

"Don't eat me, I'm a fucking Jew!
All this fat is to make high quality soap!
Not for eating!!!"

Keep eating those hotpockets, I have orders to fill. $100 usd for a single bar of botique soap is nothing to sneeze at.

 

[Neyuzivit]

Wasnt Avelone pretty fat in that old Obsidian pic.

 

[Bohrain]

OK... Something terrible just happened.

If any of you was looking for me in the past 24 hours... I wasn't here.

MCA ate me!!!

I do believe it was an accident, even though I yelled at him:
"Don't eat me, I'm a fucking Jew!
All this fat is to make high quality soap!
Not for eating!!!"

It was worthless... He didn't even chew!
After two seconds I found myself in the most dreadful place... His stomach.

A maze filles with pieces of shit shaped like monsters!

I fought them all... And survived to tell you the tale of MCA rectum.

But I can't right now... I need to take a shower first.

MCA... Please stop eating people!

Being eaten and shat by a deity makes you one according to Kirkbride so there is no reason to stop.

 

[Nael]

If I was spending time in Belgium I'd probably be bigger than a fucking house too. So. Much. Beeeeeeeeeeeer.

No Josh was fat and it was before Obsidian times

 

[abnaxus]

I dunno, does MCA look muscular or fat? Did he inject T?

 

[Mustawd]

lol the pcgamer guys does all the talking. MCA looks bored, I'm bored. why do they even have guests if they are gonna do all the talking themselves

e: @48:06 they finally start talking about D:OS2. let's see if the PCG dudes will let MCA and Swen talk

Swen seems super tired to me. Same thing with the kickstart video update.

 

[Roguey]

No Josh was fat and it was before Obsidian times

Chris either started out as fat or ballooned up while working on Torment.

His doctor told him he needed to change his lifestyle or he'd die, so he started lifting.

Chris either started out as fat or ballooned up while working on Torment.

His doctor told him he needed to change his lifestyle or he'd die, so he started lifting.

He said in an interview that he gained 40 pounds during Torment's development.

Umm...where is he? The dude on the right? That's more than 40 lbs bro...

 

[Roguey]

Umm...where is he? The dude on the right? That's more than 40 lbs bro...

Sitting in the center with his hand on his face behind the other guy with the hand on his face.

 

[Mustawd]

Oh. Yah, that's about 40 lbs.

Guy on the right is Dan Spitzley, programmer at Obsidian.

Also, I think MCA had already talked to the doctor and lost some weight at that point, he looks bigger in this pic from 1998:

 

[Roguey]

I was like "Where's Chris" then horror dawned upon me when I realized it was the dork in the cap and glasses.

[Russia is over. The end.]

Those almost look like school pictures. The nerds. They look like someone who can make a good game. Now look at modern game devs, and they don't look the part and they make shit games.

 

[Roguey]

Chris Avellone is ~27 in that pic and looks/dresses like he's ~16.

And the old man with the ADIDAS pants and backwards baseball cap is even worse.

[POOPERSCOOPER]

MCA is the only RPG designer who gets bitches.

 

[Roguey]

MCA is the only RPG designer who gets bitches.

I'd personally prefer to be around artistic jewesses instead of loud Italian-Americans.

[rahulkpoffical]

I see that Chris is picking up the iron again, together with a few snacks every couple of hours. For protein of course.

He looks like Mike Nelson doing a skit making fun of 90s X-Treme
