Preview Torment Kickstarter Update #42: New Gameplay Video - "A World Unlike Any Other"

[Azeot]

it is still being developed, so I wouldn't concentrate too much on details like walking speed, polish and such. The general feeling is what matters and that is...

Oh geez, hiver is arguing with smudboy on YouTube. You go, hiver.

 

[Maculo]

A rare moment where the youtube comments provide some gold. My favorite so far:

early on RTwP was actually winning until random uninformed crowds popped in to vote.

I've been following the game for quite some time now, and I must say I'm disappointed by a few elements : this is supposed to be a game set in the far future, yet people still fight with armor and swords. Just like any fantasy RPG. Pity. And the artstyle, though quite unique, is brought down by really, really, REALLY dated graphics. Will still follow, though. If the story and writing are exceptional, I might pick it up, but only at twenty bucks. I got the WItcher 3 at 50, and couldn't justify buying this game for the same price. It's not on the same level, at least in my opinion.

reading youtube comments gives me suicidal thoughts

hiver You are a real bro! I mean it. Thanks for fighting the good fight vs. that imbecile smudboy. I was gonna jump in but... then I remembered trying to explain to him the rationale behind TB combat on the user voice forums and he just doesn't get it, or he is one damn good troll. Let me know if you ever need my pitchfork!!!

I knew he worked on MotB. Thats literally the only thing wikipedia says to me about him which recommends. There is fuck all info about him on the internet. So he made one expac for a game you like and has also had his hand in a fair amount of rubbish. Time for me to get on the hype train then. Thanks for the information showing me your skills at making baseless assumptions.

One expac? Motb is the only thing that turn NWN 2 worthy of anyones money and the closest of making a good RPG Obsidian ever got. If you didn't play it, go there NOW! Don't forget going on an evil playthrough, MoTb is one of the few RPGs where the evil playthrough is really worthy of your time. Kevin and Ziets were the project lead and creative lead. If Torment keep that quality for a whole game... ohh boy.

 

[DeepOcean]

What? Hiver on youtube comments? Man, I think he will need to keep "imbecile" for easy copy paste because he will need that word alot on youtube.

 

[ZagorTeNej]

Is Hiver prosperized? Haven't seen him post lately.

 

[Jasede]

Well...

It's not PoE!

ps that combat looks retarded, what's with the janky movement?

 

[UnknownBro]

I just saw graphics and animations. How is the gameplay? HypeTrain indeed.

Will wait for the game to release before make a comment about it. Wasteland 2 was a huge letdown, and no Mr Brian Fargo, I will not pledge to your BTIV before I see a good game released by InXile. Thank you very much.

N-no, this is just early alpha, I'm sure it will get better.
Heh heh...

 

[Crescent Hawk]

Yeah well considering Wasteland 2 animations, I expect the worse, POE actually surprised me with its smooth attack moves and idle animations.

 

[Lady_Error]

I'm sure this game is gonna offer a decent challenge.

Who's the narrator in the trailers?

It's Squidward. The voice sounded familiar to me as well, until I realized that it was the voice of the narrator/Kelemvor in Mask of the Betrayer.

Uh, no. It's videogame audio legend Alexander Brandon.

Who gives a shit about smudboy?

Butthurt, disillusioned biodrones are still biodrones.

but am i the only one hating the pale look of the characters? and their walking pace is so fake, it's like watching a guy walk on a treadmill, 2 meters in one pace.

Off topic but are you Gylfi.Fenriz.Conquests and have forgotten your password by any chance? Do contact DU if so.

 

[Gylfi.Fenriz]

OOT yeah that's me, sir. Yes i must have reset password and changed username, did that reset the post count? I don't mind it at all...

hah. I DID reset a password but i did it for an account (this one) i didn't even know i had. Isn't that funny? No.

yes, let's be fair.

PoE chars suck too. But that's just me, i suppose, i never liked 3d on 2d. But you gotta give some 3d to people or it will look too much retro, as Corey Cole was explaining regarding his game (cause i asked him why didn't you just use AGS)

But, who cares, challenge is more important.

 

[Mangoose]

I'm so ready for the phase-based combat.

 

[Andnjord]

Hot damn, the style, the weirdness of the art design, the ToEE style combat!!

Jesus H tip tap dancing Christ, this better be good!

 

[Grotesque]

maybe this will finally be the game that will make me feel glad I threw money at.
maybe.

1000 posts, and 500 brofists, and 50 ejections later he shall be the ancient veteran of the Codex.

 

[jagged-jimmy]

My plan was to wait for Torment release before pledging to any other inXile games. (Their 2 games cycle was financed - the company kickstarted, the rest is a matter of quality)
But Fargo is getting me again... All this hype.

Also not sure, if i want no RPGs at all or mediorce RPGs from inXile - it's a tough call.
