    It's all really not that easy. Just because combat is crap, the game doesn't automatically become bad. I see all the people always arguing how bad combat in Fallout or Arcanum was, but honestly, up until nowadays tymes, I never even thought abou it- in fact, it didn't influenced my enjoyment with the games 10+ years ago a single bit. Maybe I even felt it was a positive thing to - at some point while playing - becoming so strong, I'd own the random encounters in half a minute. What always really hooked me up, was the general atmosphere in the game, the stories and the experiences, the unique encounters you could have (getting Dogmeat in Fo1 or the dog in Arcanum, first time ever seeing and interacting with a super mutant, etc) .. but never the amount of balance in combat. Maybe I am too old and have seen too much, but I don't think a game ever got me again as hard as talking to Lou for the first time after I accidentally got moved to the Mariposa Military base, completely unprepared and by surprise. And here is a spoiler: The following combat scene was completely unbalanced. :>

    Well, I see it different than you people, because I create mods. Gamebryo is extremely powerful in this area, while the unreal engine is completely not.

    I wouldn't mind a first person Arcanum like game. Could even see this being done with Bethsofts Crapengine.

    I can understand the answer. If you haven't read up on all the codex drama and crying about Sawyer wanting to balance everything always, you might not know what exactly they ask here. /Edit: Just reading the interview. I've never before heard about a mobile fortress for Fo2 and these story elements. It actually sounds pretty awesome... and now suddenly it feels like even that was ripped off by Bethesda for their Enclave mobile command center in that one Fo3 DLC. God damnit. Suddenly I have the urge to continue working on my old Fo2 mod. Also that idea about hatching a deathclaw egg sounds awesome. So much better than what we got later on.

    Kentucky Route Zero is pretty awesome for as far as I was able to play it. At some point there had been some kind of puzze that I just couldn't get past. Didn't looked it up and at some point completely forgot about it. Will pick it up again at some point, though. Really loving the atmosphere and stuff.

    Maybe you can do money laundry on fig too. :> @vr: the future of 3d porn is now. :>
  7. Lexx
    Yeah, I've calculated a bit back when this figstuff started and with my amateur skills it looks like this: Long time investment with a possibly low profit margin. Now considering how long the games are in development before release and then they (probably) aren't making that much money in return... Well, it seems to be more a thing for when you don't know what else to do with your money.

    But you don't just invest with 20€ and I don't trust them enough to think about a larger sum. Also, I am no expert, but it isn't that easy and you can't "just" invest and be done with it, no?

    It's yet another website that wants all our data. Not going to register there either. Not going to give any money anyway.
  10. Lexx
    Can't play them either. The beginning with jumping from bad cutscene to bad cutscene was such a hard turn-off for me already.
  11. Lexx
    The Fallout Sfall Timeslip or that's just a coincidence?

    Wasteland 3 "kickstarter" (on Fig) just got announced. The codex is in lolz. http://www.polygon.com/2016/9/28/13081728/wasteland-3-announcement-fig-kickstarter-crowdfunding-release-date

    Started playing some Mount & Blade Warbands for a few hours and then switched to Fire and Sword. I can really see the awesome in this game, but it also has so many tiny flaws that annoy the hell out of me...

    Get your shait together and do something more productive. On the other hand, my younger self would probably tell my older self to f off.
  15. Lexx
    Loved the crafting system in Arcanum. :>
  16. Lexx
    Why are they running and jumping and screaming so much. Jeeez, can't they chill...
  17. Lexx
    It's under "Jensen Stories" - so exactly like the cut-out preorder mission. I guess I will pass and wait for a final "Director's Cut" version.

    Apparently a new DX:MD DLC is out (the one with Pritchard) and people are hating on it, becaus it is like paid advertisement for that multiplayer thing nobody plays.

    I still enjoyed the sewers in Bloodlines simply due to the lore placed in spots. Just goes to show, at least for me, that just a little bit of decent writing can go a long way. Too bad 99% of games can't even accomplish that. On retrospective I really wonder about the male Malkavian outfits, somehow they always seem to foreshadow events of the game. Pants only because of the beach, gas mask because of the plague, Hazmat suit because of sewers and party clothes because of the....party. Damn, I never noticed this. I mean, I never liked the clothes for the male Malkavian, but I also never thought much about it...

    Will buy it, but the name is kinda... mobile trashgame like.
  21. Lexx
    Wasn't it the one that came with a map editor? (read it in some very old pc magazine. That's pretty much the only reason I remember the name)
  22. Lexx
    Haha forget about that 60fps standard.
  23. Lexx
    That reminds me. On sunday evening, a 25 year old driver near my home town was speeding and cutting a corner, hitting a 17 years old girl on her moped, basically disintegrating her. Apparently the scene of the crash looked really, really bad, with psychiatrist and such being on the scene till deep in the night, caring for the witnesses and firefighters. Made me really angry, because I see so, so many people moving completely unaware through street traffic every week. Cyclists shooting over red lights, cyclists not even looking to the left or right before crossing a street, cars speeding in really stupid situations, etc. I just want to slap all these people.

    A driver with no insurance, heh. Me as a german, I've never heard of such a thing ever before. :>

    I am pretty sure SQ42 will *not* arrive in 2016. In fact, I seem to remember that it was already said to be something of early 2017 or similar. The next big chunk of information about come out at the Citizen Con on october. So we'll see what they are telling us this time.
