Ah. But what if the existing toolset includes all of the capabilities that would enable someone to create something that perfectly matched your idea of what a sewer should be?

It's probably a bigger issue with the event itself. I'm not sure how I would feel if someone immortalized by brother's accident by taping it, and then let the viewing world see it. Especially considering his accident would probably make many people go "OMG! That was totally awesome!"

Spoken like someone that's never lost someone. And if so, never witnessed it.

If Obsidian took their city tileset, renamed it to the sewer tileset, would the game then include sewers?

Just because you're jaded about it doesn't mean everyone else has to be.

Errr...you say that like it's a good thing.

Absolutely! Your grasp and understanding of it is truly impeccable.

Would you be happy if someone you cared about was killed in an automobile accident and someone posted it all over the internet?

What wouldn't make it a real sewer?

Kudos to spider for seeming to have a grasp of the intent of affirmative action.

I agree. It's essentially mandatory firing of what are presumably qualified men, or the end of the company. Edit: And I don't believe in women's rights, Lucius. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Or the hiring of more women.

Hahahaha.

The impression that I get is that people are optimistic that they'll have the ability to create a sewer level that looks and feels like a sewer level, despite there not being a sewer tileset.

Hahaha. Would you by any chance have a link, or at least some info about that one :D

We should be trying to make some trades quick then. Only a Mike Milbury would send us DiPietro for Jani Rita straight up! (well, maybe a 1st round pick to Edmonton as well)

People aren't calling Obsidian liars. I'm willing to bet that you can maniuplate the toolset effectively enough to create a very atmospheric sewer. But apparently to Volourn, it's only a sewer if it was made with the "Sewer" tileset

It becomes an issue when you don't have infinite resources. And the longer the game gets, the increase in cost goes up exponentially. Well, according to some (Kalfear), WoW is a poor knockoff of implementations that were copied from other games and all that. To be honest though, as much as I'm a fan of WoW, it really isn't that deep of a game. Quests and all that are very similar, and don't really affect the gameworld at all.

At the same time, I also found Fallout 2 to be a significantly more buggy game. It was still great, but I found ways to break it much more than the original Fallout. It's stuff like this that I've been trying to convey to Roshan about his "cheap and simple" addition of 15 hours of RP dialogue.

I really enjoyed it, and am playing through my third time just now. I do think it becomes too hack and slash towards the end, but that always seems to be the case in most CRPGs

I've yet to play Thief 3

I dunno. I remember having full inventories of +4/+5 items...for an entire party of 6. Not only that, but I could slay vampires (and dragons too) at my leisure.

I think you're just splitting hairs for the sake of being confrontational.

I'd consider BG2 to be the grand-poomba of receiving phat lewt.

Again, what's the difference between sewer-like and an "official" sewer? Particularly from a gameplay point of view.

Sounds like the NWN2 has a bit more substance to it however.
