    Hey, at least they're all fully armoured, which is quite rare in itself

    I would venture to say that adventure is far more integral to the RPG experience

    I'm in favour of old-school portraits. They just ooze personality and quite often are simply works of art. And you have an option to use whatever you like with custom options. Check out this topic as well : http://forums.obsidian.net/topic/60122-stretch-goal-hire-justin-sweet-to-make-portraits/ I think you'll love them if you like the IE style character art.

    Speaking of Varangians : It's practical and looks absolutely amazing and menacing at the same time too.

    Reading these forums one might think that Project Eternity is actually a dating simulator, not an RPG. Sorry, but I'm a bit fed up all those romance topics - there are far more interesting topics to discuss - be it mechanics, the setting etc. etc. This game doesn't need romances.
  6. Karranthain
    Fair enough. I'm not giving up just yet!

    No thanks, I find VA more effective when it's used sparingly (case in point: Fallout, BG2) - those rare moments were really memorable.
  8. Karranthain
    Funny you should say that, your avatar is using Justin's portrait. Or just trolling there?

    It's not a question of budget, it's a question of an artistic choice. Just so it happens there's plenty of "cinematic" to go around.

    I will make a topic about weapon and armour mechanics shortly. Thanks for the support guys, it would appear there are many of us

    I am pretty much sure a lot of people would pledge, say 8k, for a custom portrait done by Justin. And here's more: Let's make it happen guys!
  12. Karranthain
    Let me add some more to persuade you!

    Actually, I'd like to point out that there are plenty of weapons of European origin which are underutilized in the games. Case in point, how often do you see: 1) Halberds 2) Spears and pikes 3) Rapiers 4) Basket hilt swords like that one : 5) Military flails 6) Repeating crossbows 7) Billhooks And there's plenty more. Some of those were in the BG and ID games, but mostly neglected in the modern cRPGs. That said, I wouldn't mind some exotic weaponry as well (like various sabres etc.).

    Melee combat is much more satisfying - weapon reach, grapple, coup de grace, attacks of opportunity, etc. etc. And that's only a start. The system was awesome and really promising. But it only made combat even more frustrating as encounter design sucked. Yeah, the encounters could've been better, especially in the later parts of the game. But like you've said, the system was really amazing. If done properly, it'd be a real treat.
  15. Karranthain
    They could add another pledge tier, with a custom portrait made by Justin. Could have even a few stretch goals encompassing more portraits. The more the merrier, and it's a very tangible reward.

    Yeah, he even expressed his desire to join, even if jokingly.
  18. Karranthain
    Add Justin Sweet to that and this game could be a Kickstarter record.
  19. Karranthain
    Agreed, Dak'kon's design was great. When you think about it, there's no way better way to differentiate this game from other fantasy titles than to have realistic (not overly so, obviously) weapon and armour designs.
  20. Karranthain
    Imagine having Dak'kon, Kreia and Kaelyn in one party.
  21. Karranthain
    Umm... I guess. It's been eternity since I last played any of those games. But I reckon that could work pretty fine, presumed you add a the queue system. I can't emphasize the importance of that enough. Since it's reeeaallly important :D
  22. Karranthain
    I think bringing George in would definitely convince a lot of people to pledge.
  23. Karranthain
    Do I need to say more?
  24. Karranthain
    Thanks, but no thanks.
  25. Karranthain
    I'm very much against it - I think I'd rather have a longer, more satisfying solo experience instead of a half-baked (because that's what it'd amount to at best) multiplayer.
