  1. Out of curiosity, where exactly are you getting this information? Please don't say that when someone has their location visible it's more often than not European when the vast majority of people don't have their location visible. That is the well known fact to everybody, who is visiting this forums on regular basis, in last few years...
  2. I'd say that's because most of the people from central Europe that would be interested in this project don't need a translation either. That is unfortunately not true. Lot of people over 30 who love RPGs games, unfortunately do not speak english good enough to enjoy text heavy games, but I know that translation to my language would be absolute waste of money, the spike of sales would not justify the effort. Sooner or later some fans make translations of the game to local language. That's what happened with BG1,2 and PS:T. Most of the fans purchased these games after fanmade translations few years later. EDIT: And as a fact, every single translation to my language absolutely ruined the immersion for the people who played the game before in English language... Even if they marketed it as a "professional" translation... One of the worst experience in gaming I have ever had, was to hear Grunt in Warcraft III speaking my local language...
  3. Not all of these RPGs were "great" nevertheless I have enjoyed them a lot. Every single Infinity Engine game Fallout 1 Fallout 2 Fallout 3 Final Fantasy V Final Fantasy VII Final Fantasy IX Final Fantasy X Final Fantasy X-2 (Yes I am one of the few guys who actually played this game, instead of whining about the it's girliness because the ATB system was THE BEST in all of FF games) Final Fantasy XII Menzoberranzan Dark Sun Knights of Xentar Demon's Souls Dark Souls Star Ocean 1 Star Ocean 4 Atelier Totori Last Scenario Arena Daggerfall Morrowind Neverwinter Nights: Hordes of the Underdark Neverwinter Nights 2: Mask of the Betrayer Neverwinter Nights 2: Storm of Zehyr Lands of Lore Albion Dungeon Master Stonekeep Suikoden Suikoden II Al-Qadim Entomorph: Plague of Darkfall Jade Empire
  4. I am in a same group, like you with the difference, that our group is completely new to PnP. We played little bit with beginner box, and we are slowly learning new rules from the core rulebook, to spice up our games. And me as a GM, I am trying to learn some stuff from one IRC Pathfinder Society group in Australia. Awesome guys and very friendly towards PnP noob, like me. It helped me a lot to have our local games running faster The only problem is 9 hours time difference, so I am able to play with them only once or twice a month :/ I would like to ask If you already had some sessions, or if greylord find this post, that what kind of modules or adventure path would you recommend, to virgin roleplayers I read the Crypt of the Everflame module, but unfortunately, I do think it is little bit complex for newbies Another choice I have available at the moment is the Master of the Fallen Fortress and Council of Thieves Adventure Path... And of course few other free to download modules from Paizo. (If you have a very good recommendations, I will not hesitate to purchase that as well)... Any recommendations would be awesome, thank you all and to mkreku: Nothing beats the experience to see adult guy to roleplay Barbarian with INT 8, who does not have a clue what is a difference between dog and an elephant trying to solve a mysterious murder and interrogate the suspect :D One of the funniest experience in gaming I had last few years
  5. What about if they put these two things together: small prologue in a place specific for your race, and then some narrative intro, which will tell the story for your character, how he happened to get into the center of the story?
  6. Resurrecting this, so more people notice this thread and write down their thoughts on this idea....
  7. The most terrible thing about your post is, that this statement makes you the most romantic person on the Obsidian Boards
  8. /respect Man I wish I was some top manager to back PE with $10000, but for now, it must be enough $160 right after I get my September paycheck :/ Got few unexpected spendings this month, so PE will have to wait few more days :/
  9. If I am correct according to the picture on our money, even Tahiti is part of Europe
  10. Maybe if Valve would be doing open world FPRPGs, your statement would be valid.
  11. As spider said, branding all EA **** with bioware name is good idea, because Bio is still very strong brand and to be honest, name Bio Austin brings less bad will that would bring EA Austin amongst gamers. So this is just logical... If they sold 2mil + of each game it is Income of 120mil for a single game... ME2, ME3, DAO, DA2 and SWTOR = 600 mil income, but you have to add costs for development, distribution, server maintenance, and not all of these 2mil copies were sold at 60 bucks... and of course the bonuses for all the high management members... Soooo in the end I really can not see more than 200 mils back in pure profit and I am highly optimistic with this wild guess (and I tried to account all the DLCs and projects 10bucks ripoff to add to this number)... In 5 years... So they will be ****ing happy if they get even with the buyout in less than another 10 maybe 15 years... If this is not a prime example of terrible investment by a publicly traded company, which is trying to maximize short-term profits, I do not know what else is... Edit: And if the development cost of SWTOR was really 150mil+ as rumours say, then the number made in 5 years would me more allong the line of 100millions... How the hell it is still possible that CEO did not step down yet...
  12. IMO, killed or assimilated is the same in the end, your soul cease to exist...
  13. Thanks. I cant wait to hear the announcement especially after Feargus mentioned some announcement about DRM free
  14. I think, this would cut into budget even more than different starting locations...
  15. This is very subjective... I for example always play in TES cats or lizards. Playing elves and humans is stuff of past millennium...
  16. Unbelievable! I wonder which publisher that was. wow... Just wow...
  17. PE Stretch Goal nr.2 achieved with little bit over 40k backers yay
  18. More Project Eternity goodness... http://www.pcgamer.com/2012/09/18/project-eternity-update-has-more-info-on-character-creation-races-parties-and-story/
  19. The reason is that 4 out of 10 of my favourite games of all time, were created by Obsidian/Black Isle is that reason enough?
  20. Anyway, they were bought in October 2007, as we have soon October 2012, so presumably they 5-years contract surely expired...
