    Thanks for the update.

    The secret fear of middlemen and hacks everywhere. Pretty much this.

    I think that this forum could use a few subforums, to better organize the topics and to improve readability. I'd also make searching more efficient. Here are a few proposals : 1) Story forum, for anything related to characters, dialogue and storylines etc. 2) Design forum, containing anything concerning combat mechanics, quest design, character system etc. 3) Art and graphics forum. 4) Possibly a general forum? What do you think?

    It would appear that the publishers are beginning to see a future where they aren't needed. The horror!

    And as further proof that equipment can look both practical and amazing :

    Some stretch goal ideas : http://forums.obsidian.net/topic/60038-george-ziets-as-a-possible-stretch-goal/page__hl__ziets http://forums.obsidian.net/topic/60122-stretch-goal-hire-justin-sweet-to-make-portraits/?do=findComment&comment=1188511

    Some more great works :
  8. Karranthain
    Yeah, I agree. I got strong Warcraft vibes when listening to the soundtrack (the choir, the general "epic" feeling).
  9. Karranthain
    Yeah, some culture could use those, it all requires is some consistency.
  10. Karranthain
    Yeah, a truly desperate measure
  11. Karranthain
    Muskets could also be used as clubs in a pinch.
  12. Karranthain
    Yeah, or swords alternating between slashing and piercing damage.

    This is how they worked in Darklands, for the most part. You could have someone with a Brass Handgun continue to fire during combat, but typically you used them immediately as party/volley fire to mangle the most heavily armored target. The guns simply took too long to reload to use continuously, so party members would usually switch to melee immediately after. Hope it works the same way in Eternity! Makes firearms unique and opens up interesting gameplay options.

    Vita Mortis Cario! Or something like that...
  15. Karranthain
    Well, the poll's redundant now, since firearms are in the game. But here are a few idea on how to make them unique and interesting : http://forums.obsidi...s/#entry1193908

    Absolutely. But 10-15 seconds is a long time in a fight, so the player would have to make a decision - is it worth it? To further complicate things, it could be interruptable...
  18. Karranthain
    I think they could go with Mark Morgan (not sure how he'd do with a straight fantasy though) or maybe Kai Rosenkranz of Gothic fame. Though I think Alexander Brandon would be the best. I really like his MotB soundtrack.
  19. Karranthain
    Agreed, I'd even argue that it's way more important than the music.
  20. Karranthain
    It could be the very last stretch goal - it's not that important, but if it wouldn't be made at the cost of anything else, sure why not?
  21. Karranthain
    i always liked this pic but is this book levitating cuz i can see his hands holding it also left arm is somewhat strange Yeah, the arm's slightly too long I think. Still an amazing piece of artwork, however. I particularly like the armour design. And the fact that the portrait screams "Icewind Dale".
  22. Karranthain
    I'd be interesting to see what Mark Morgan does with a more regular fantasy. As for Justin Bell - the pitch video soundtrack started with some nice Icewind-ish inspiration, but I admit I'm not a big of Warcraft-esque choirs in the later parts.
  23. Karranthain
    This topic needs more Justin Sweet :
  24. Karranthain
    That's another good idea.
  25. Karranthain
    Yeah, that's another nice thing. Weaves in nice opportunities for some not so obvious spells. True enough, but I think it'd be bring some interesting opportunities. It could be a high chance of failure instead?
