Mocking always worked better anyway.

Gonna answer you in a PM so as not to clutter the thread. TL;DR: She has not right to tell me how to be a feminist either, so fuck her and her bullshit.

Sounds like some mansplainin'. You best check your privilege.

Torment has passed Wasteland 2 in funding, with 13 days to go.

Here's an idealistic plan: https://torment.uservoice.com/forum...k-xile-shared-unity-engine-team-between-obsid

Black Xile (Shared Unity Engine team between Obsidian/InXile)

An official Unity Engine team that combines the efforts of Obsidian/InXile to produce a modified UNITY engine/assets for future projects (As well as Torment+P:E) and improvements to existing projects and editors.

Both companies already share workflow tools and middle-ware solutions from work on wasteland 2 and P:E and formalizing an RPG engine production team would improve the velocity of any projects involving the use of the UNITY engine.

This would leave more budget for both teams to spend on the holy trinity of Story, Art and Gameplay (Which would be individual for most projects).

This team would not only be responsible for getting the most bang for buck out of the latest UNITY build for both software houses but also administrate a UNITY store (In a similar way to the steam workshop) to sell (Approved) player modules/mods to the profit of everyone involved.

That's.... interesting.

That's.... interesting.

Actually it's obvious and probably something they were doing anyway.

We will have a city (or two). We will have portals to other worlds and places.

Two cities? Oh my.

 

[~RAGING BONER~]

i voted for it...whatever makes the development of incline run smoother.

 

[Lancehead]

Considering the game's not a combat focussed game i.e. not a lot of combat areas, two cities wouldn't be surprising.

Take Mario for example: do you think he would have endured all those punishing situations consisting of ghosts, carnivorous plants, lava, and fire breathing turtles if there were no princess?

What if Peach had ulterior motives? What would be the effect on Mario, or the player living vicariously through him at that moment? What if Peach's character had known Mario before his memory loss?

No quest markers: https://torment.uservoice.com/forums/197950-game-ideas/suggestions/3775053-no-quest-markers

This is probably a given, but I'm voting for it anyway.

 

[~RAGING BONER~]

how deep...how philosophical.

who knew that stomping Bowser was just the in-game metaphor of a lonely nerd getting his own heart stomped on by his IRL love interests? it just makes you think man, it just makes you think.

Do we really need posts pointing out every stupid thing Bioware and Bethesda do and reminding inXile not to do it? Don't you have any confidence in these guys at all? If I were inXile I'd be insulted by posts like this. I think they get it. I think they know that their audience is not 3 year olds with Down's Syndrome or something indistinguishable from that like Bioware and Bethesda fans.​

 

[Lancehead]

No questlog would be my idea, if I can be bothered to write it on their forums. Have a journal that collects all the information gathered by the player. Replace questlog with a notes section and let the player write all that needs to be written, with easy access to the journal to look up anything.

Or perhaps that's too un-PS:T-like. Eh.

 

[DalekFlay]

I can't go down the "so hardcore I don't want a quest list" road with you. No markers of any kind though, please.

This needs more votes and support

https://torment.uservoice.com/forum...-bold-and-challenging-literary-and-i#comments

Get on it.

Its not that i think the team will just succumb to all those horrible mass market suggestions that are overflowing the uservoice with their braying but this is a very important issue and should be strongly communicated.

 

[evdk]

Not that I do not appreciate the sentiment but these latest suggestions are on the level of "make an awesome storyfag cRPG, please. PS no Bioware!" Well, no shit.

 

[hiver]

Yeah well, no shit but, many dont understand in which way this should be achieved. And if you have any extra votes that is the place to invest them.
And a comment or two to strengthen the support and intention isnt that hard to do.

Dont do it for me, god or the country.

Do it for the incline.

move your lazy arses!

- its not even my post ffs... -

Yep. It's pretty much insulting to the inXile team.
