Dragon Age: Inquistion
But is it an lgbt-all-in-one table so everyone can romance it, or just an ordinary table that by being such promotes bigotry and exclusion of the minorities?

Is Obsidian going to make Dungeon Siege 4?
I hope not (at least not in a while), I've just about had it with all things fantasy.

What are you playing now
Playing Cannon Fodder and having a blast with it. So many good memories come back to life with the rageinducing repetition through the insistence that nobody is allowed to die at least in the first ten or so missions.

Update #76: Music in Pillars of Eternity
I liked the track. I don't know how indicative it is of the rest of the score, but I do think it is a bit on the ordinary side of things, stuff that is good but also something you hear in more or less similiar ways in almost all other games of similiar nature. I had hoped for a bit more experimental touch; melody structures and chord combinations somewhat on the unfamiliar side, a bit of surprise in the choice of instruments and proposed mood, little touches that set the piece apart from the norm but can of course still be related to the scene on top of which it plays. Arcanum is something of an extreme example, but it's relatively unorthodox simplicity gave the game pretty unique mood and feel that wouldn't have been quite there if the score was not what it was.

Hacking gets you a long way in every direction, keep that in mind when investing your praxis.

RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS
@Keyrock I'm well aware that there are plenty of games out there. What I find boring is this slave to fashion thing that's going on. I can and will hope that the crowdfunded games deliver with their relative shoelace budgets, and I will have lots of fun with them once they do (if they do), but that doesn't change that every time I raise my eyes out of KS and indies, I notice that there's very, very little out there despite the market being bloated (concerning RPG's - I don't particularly care about other genres outside if few choice picks). I guess I'm just picky, but nonetheless, I find this to be extremely boring and ultimately a shame in that so much potential for creativity is left unused with everyone competing who does this one thing better or just trying to chip in to get their piece of the pie (I know that's a bit unfair and simplified, but the point comes across). And that's that really.

RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS
If my word isn't good enough for you, what can I say. Doubt away. And it's 6 games since I mixed Lords of the Fallen with Bound by Flame. Oh dear, two of that still makes 33%. But I'm not planning on buying anything, I said those two games have a chance. Them selling is no concern of mine. I vote plenty with my wallet, but me not buying **** games doesn't make better and more varied ones appear.

This is all the industry is capable of anymore (this game, Witcher 3, DA:I, Two Worlds developers pirate game, Spider's new game, Risen 3, and likely plenty more that I haven't even heard of -- all carved basically from the same wood). How profoundly boring. This is Spiders' new game. Hah. This only goes to prove my point, I mixed it with Lords of the Fallen.... Nah. Risen 3 and Witcher 3 have a chance (depending on several things), but the rest... nope.

Drop your heretic thoughts on CRPGs and RPG systems here
I'm having more fun with the gameplay of Wasteland than I ever did with Fallout 3 or New Vegas (though still less so than back in early 90's). I'd guess that could be considered somewhat heretical by todays standards.

I'm going to be watching out for this one. I've been waiting for Lemmings to arrive in GoG for quite a while and this looks sufficiently similiar.

Forced sympathy is the worst kind of sympathy because it's implanted rather than acquired. I'm kind of shocked you'd support such artificial and medieval methods.

Obsidian and the future. What can we expect?
That explains a lot, actually.

Obsidian and the future. What can we expect?
Yes it is. Very far; and gladly so. I'm not particularly keen on AAA titles anyway; they always seem too scattered around with their focus. Of course, though, that comes with it's own set of hopes and expectations -- DS3, for eg., was a mid budget game (yes?), but I wouldn't consider it a home run from any angle. Anyways, we'll see where this train goes eventually; it's not in the sunniest of places right now and there's no predicting if it will stop next, but... eventually.

Obsidian and the future. What can we expect?
Not asking for miracles; just hoping for something decent. I know how the market is (or seems to be for the most part -- Ubisoft did publish MMX). I'm not arguing. I've no desire to change your mind about anything, just trying get my point of view through whether or not you agree with it.

Obsidian and the future. What can we expect?
Meaning more so than before. KOTORII has/had half the game missing, NWN2 OC was a bad/mediocre game in general, Alpha Protocol was a complete mess from a gaming and development standpoint with one really big saving grace. DSIII was a solid, good fun game (Sawyer agrees). F:NV was great and South Park is well liked and a big success. Nope, unless we are counting expansion packs. As games they are a lot more solid. They're just not D&D, Star Wars D&D or Fallout (well except Fallout ) and their attached benefits (also in the gameplay department) Which is certainly a thing to be disappointed about, but saying the games themselves are worse is a bit tinted. I'm talking about what games they've made and are making, and how they could be identified; not so much about their problems at making those games. DS3, South Park, AW, Russian MMO... Compare that to Kotor and NWN, and even New Vegas as what kind of games they were. Certainly you see where this is going. There's a clear path in how this has been evolving. Anyway, like I said, it's not the end of the world, just a bit disappointing to see.

Obsidian and the future. What can we expect?
Of course they will. What can be expected from now on is a bit more complicated question, though. Good, detailed Games made with effort. That, if not completly rpg's still feature some interesting systems. Have no idea how AW will fare in that regard, but that is what I'm expecting from Obsidian since becoming a fan. Sure. However, the road has been a bit uneven recently to say the least and to trust a company logo on the box to deliver, is all. Unfortunate events, bad luck and everything, but nonetheless - it's a bit disheartening to look at where they are and know what they're capable of. I'm not overly worried about this, though, projects come and go, just saying what things look like currently.

Obsidian Project to be announced at GDC 2014
You take the role of a lone M1A1 Abrams with a world in turmoil and learn that you're destined to make a difference; along the way you meet interesting characters like T-72 and Leopard 2 (old models - low level) who will provide you with deep philosophy in armored warfare and have ambiguous agendas in the grand plotline about finding your place in the stage of global war. What can change the nature of a tank?

Can't say I ain't a bit disappointed. I was hoping the announcement to be at least something to speculate and have an eye out for. Oh well...
