I wouldn't count on it unfortunately. Hi Alan Welcome back, where have you been?
-
I admire the way you can simplify these discussions Ulquiorra. And its good to have you back and commenting, I was getting outnumbered by the anti-romance people -
I love the Saints Row games and the new GTA trailer does nothing for me. Really? I'm not sure if you are joking, I don't want to turn this into a SR vs GTA discussion but you can't possibly compare the outlandish and exaggerated gameplay antics of the SR4 trailer to the real living world of GTA5? Both look good but GTA5 is on a different level and it always has been? It's about what you're looking for in a game: If you're looking for gritty realism and going through an emotional roller coaster as the characters struggle with the morality of their actions, then GTA V definitely looks suited to that. Me, I want to cause ridiculous amounts of chaos and just have crazy, unfettered, over the top, juvenile fun. Having super powers, running around naked and punching people in the ****, and shooting aliens with a dubstep gun is definitely well suited for that. Well said, you have posted what I have been trying to say I think a while ago on another thread you also described the SR genre in a similar way and I thought " yes that's exactly how I see SR games "

Nah, nothing beats Isabela in her pirate boots. That's REAL relationship dynamics
-
I hear you, I don't think anyone is questioning how abhorrent the hoax was under the circumstances.
-
I do agree that SR looks cool but for me it looks like mindless fun. Aliens and Superheroes, a big change from the earlier games but yes it will be fun That's a good point actually and maybe why we disagree on what trailer appears more entertaining. I want to totally immerse myself in a virtual world where even the golf games take time and slowly build my criminal empire while exploring every nook and cranny of the GTA5 world. But swinging a bat at aliens will be fun but its a secondary objective when it comes to these types of games So this seems to be purely a debate around what type of game we prefer

I believe she committed suicide due to the shame of being hoodwinked and allowing the call to go through. I don't think she was fired. Did she take it too personally? In my books yes I think she did but it doesn't change the reality of the shame she felt. So the hoax caused her suicide and that is something the DJ have to live with

But you find me very funny, right Malc ? You always seem to laugh at my jokes
-
I clearly remember this tragic incident, but I am confused how she can sue the radio for not providing a safe workplace? The 2 DJ's played a hoax and then one of them is still off the air but somehow this is related to the workplace not being a safe place?
-
If I'd have to guess, it's probably because I can have a picnic with friends in RL, but I can't really kill people. Well....I can. But the last time I tried there were practical complications. But Trashman how do we know that a game where we can have a picnic in different outdoor environments wouldn't be fun. There could be exciting things that happen like maybe ants attack the picnic basket or it starts raining? Can you honestly say that you wouldn't be even a little interested in a game like that

Update #59: Developer Q&A with Polina Hristova
BruceVC replied to BAdler's topic in Pillars of Eternity: Announcements & News
Wow that website has some amazing designs around creatures, nice one Polina -
That's a good start and well done but in life we have to honest with ourselves. If you can't run more than 5 minutes you are horribly unfit. But you already know this and as your fitness increases your endurance will increase. Sorry if I sound harsh but I think honesty is the best policy when it comes to our general health. Keep us updated around your training I know. I run more than five minutes usually, just not at the pace my brother does. I'm unfit, there's no denying that and it is the reason I am doing this. When I run at my own pace, I usually run for half an hour. Still not good enough, but better than five minutes. Yesterday, I just wanted to see for how long I could keep up with my little bro without choking. I think 30 minutes is good so you obviously aren't completely unfit, I assume this is road running and not at the gym on a treadmill? Personally I think road running is harder than running at the gym

"little piker" The thought of a baby tossing holy water at zombies makes me laugh
-
Actually you make a good point despite the fact you are joking, what does it say about the state of our consciousness and society in general where we prefer to play a game that we get to kill people instead of a game where we get to explore the bountiful excitement of things like love and having picnics with friends? You have asked some salient questions that I think we all need to reflect on

@ Walsie Life is not about smiling especially when we have so much global political developments to discuss " I slept and dreamt that life was beauty but then woke and realized that life was duty "
-
You are obviously joking and even if you aren't its a funny post. But no I wouldn't buy a game like that as it would get very boring. I can stream porn if I want to watch something similar to what you are suggesting but not in a game.
-
That post made me laugh. But somehow I think living in a fantasy world and dealing with dragons, demons and demi-gods I would think the perception that people would have of your parenting skills is probably not a high priority

I have to say I thought that Viconia was smoking hot and I really enjoyed the whole Romance arc with her. That type of relationship is exactly what I am looking for in PE, it can be optional but allowed you to build a deep understanding and emotional bond with her. Really important when you are trying to save the world that you can experience a little Romance

Seriously Lurky I credited you with more intelligence than someone to make such an absurd comment or believe that any company isn't concerned with sales and increased profitability. Please read this interview and see the date, its trumps your link with its relevance and the date it was published. I'll quote the section you need to focus on Geraldo] For the future, it's Eternity, what do you see beyond Eternity? [Chris] We'd like to do more games in the Eternity universe. We have the expansion plan, we'd also like to be able to do sequels to the franchise if the initial one sells well enough. http://www.gameranx.com/features/id/15876/article/project-eternity-an-extended-interview-with-chris-avellone-rezzed/ Lurky what world do you live in if you can't see why any company would want good sales of a product? So yes the Sales question is very relevant to the longevity of PE. I didn't respond to Amentep because we have discussed his points many times before and I am sure he is well aware of my view. I would respond to someone who genuinely didn't know my answers
-
I have to be honest this was the type of response I was expecting. I am still surprised by the general desultory and lacklustre comments from most people. I think Rockstar have an absolute winner with this game. I can't ask for anything more from the series. There seem to be so many new things to do apart from the exciting main storyline
-
Me too. The protagonists from previous games were cardboard cutouts. There's literally nothing to like (or even dislike) about them. CJ had a bit of character but ultimately he was just another yo from da hood, completely interchangeable with the other members of the cast. Niko* has a story and motivation, although the other characters in the game were as shallow as the rest of the supporting cast from the previous ones. *Btw the name means "nobody" in Serbian. And no, its not a name anyone actually has. I must say I am surprised you didn't like GTA4 due to its strong ties to Serbia and the Bosnian War, its not often games incorporate that devastating war into there lore and characters?
-
Holy smoke Woldan but you never cease to amaze with some of your physical antics. I have always wondered what an Iron Maiden feels like, maybe you should build one, test it out and let us know the result?
-
Yet another excellent observation, we can only hope.
