1. You are totally right. 2. I still love BG1/2 with SCS.

lol. I know, that was a joke. On the other hand... given the expected progress of this endeavour, I think it is save to assume that browser engines by then will be able to manage UE5 level stuff.

Yeah, why not? We will pick up someone for the graphics along the way. I'm a frontend developer, but understand next to nothing about current game engines, so can we make it web based?

Yes, that thing. That was incredibly dumb.

You are right. I meant fig. But wasn't that a kickstarter-like thing?

How? Nostalgia + larger, prettier But the point is not how, but how much and where. I saw ads for PoE. I didn't see one single ad for PoE2. I would have been an excellent target for the FB algorithm, but nothing. I heard about it from this forum and this forum alone. It took years before it showed up on my steam account. Then the odd choice of GoG. They could have known that Deadfire would not be easy to sell. Using it to "hype" GoG was not clever at all. OMG. This forum is the only place where I have to use english. So my english skills degenerated in the past few years.

The more I think about it, the more I come to the conclusion that there is nothing wrong with the game, setting etc. They just ****ed up the marketing.

Still here. Still waiting for PoE3. If it is not coming soon, we will have to make it ourselves.

I'm here. Once or twice in a year. It will be more often, when Pillars 3 is on the horizon.

Exactly!

"And I would be interested in directing Pillars 3 if I can figure out how to make it something I would enjoy that there’s an audience for. It may be that someone else would do a better job at that than me, though." I don't think that's true. If that game would not conclude the watchers story, I wouldnt buy it and if someone else would make that game, I wouldn't buy it either.

I don't know about others, but I have two reasons: First I just like the concept (You know the idea of learning a spell, than forgetting it after you spoke it. Gives magic meaning). Second Resource Management. I know the system is flawed, but on the other hand ... It's your fault, if you rest-spam.

Because there are people who have that crazy idea that having the ability to cheat isn't the same as having fun. And that's what an overpowered ability is: A cheat.

It's interesting that you say five grands, cause that's exactly what the average Joel Potrykus movie costs (The budget for "Ape" was just 3000). His rule is to stay under 10000. He once said that if he was given 1.000.000, he would make 100 movies instead of one. And in my opinion his films are very impressive. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joel_Potrykus

Now I understand. Schmetterling isn't the translation for butterfly (That's what you learn in school. Out of laziness I presume), butterflies are actually called Tagfalter in German as opposed to Nachtfalter or Motte.

Butterflies include moths. Both in English and German. Looked it up on Wikipedia, just to be shure. And I just realised: Isn't joy of living a common term in English? There is even a movie of that name.

My favorite one was always Backenbart. Yiddish has some cool German words in it, like schlepping (dragging around) or schwitzing (sweating), but I'm not shure if these are actual German words or if the Germans learned them from the Jews. By the way: I think joie de vivre translates to Lebensfreude, so in German you have both words.

Tell me more!

What really annoyed me was that Pallegina didn't even react, when I found out that the VTC is involved in slave trade. But she was really angry when I accidentally slaughtered the Bardattos and even more when I refused to do the main quest with the VTC (which should be kind of understandable under that circumstances, even for her).

That doesn't mean they have to be that sober. And to be honest, I always liked the funny voice sets best. Like the druggy druid in ID. There has to be at least one.

This forum was a nice little bubble in which you could debate, relax and forget that the whole world is doomed. Not anymore. I'll do the same thing as Josh: I'm out. I don't wanna be here when the rest of those creep kids arrive. Next thing will be daily posts about how SJWs ruined their masturbation experience.

I wish Josh could have made those games completely by himself on a mountaintop isolated from the world with as much time and money as he wanted to. I totally agree with him in almost every aspect be it story or mechanics. OK, I don't like classless systems, but his would have been great. Edit: All this stupidity made me sad.

I want them to build a circle and take out their cellphones. That's realistic behaviour.

Exactly what I expected.
