But this vampires, will proboblt not serve as npc, or companions but as monsters, so in the end if sparkling vampires will be includead even as a eater egg, project eternity, will be forver marked as that game that bashe stupid old unpopular teen book, Then why must this vampire be a monster o.O? It could be joke NPCs, or story-related character with his/her mini-episode. Just because Obsidian use Twilight formula, doesn't mean they have to bash Twilight with it. My suggested goal is to attract Twilight fans for the money after all Yeah I know but if this is just minor, character, than it will not atract anyone not even the most crazy twilight fan will buy a game just because there is a minor npc that is twilight like , besides, twilight fans don't like twili vamps because they sparkle they like them because they are hot, in that case just ad another hot male companion, make him bad boy to boot, and boom there will be fangirls, ther will be ....

I said it once, puting furry and lack of creativity aside, in the end all anthro races will be generelised, by players in to generic form, look at TES one of the more long runing series, that had anthro races almost from the start, they made long , deep interesting culture, and origins, Argonians, are supposed to be actualy realated more closly, to trees than lizards, khajits, form is based on the moon, and rangeing from normal cat, to tiger-man , and now to the point in the end they are just thouse lizard man and thouse cat man from TES, this is the problem ,with it no matter how hard you try it will always be that furry race of your game. Also people may point out that only minority sexualise, furrys but this is vocal again TES in morrowind there is hard to get book whoes whole point serve as eater egg, and the fact that whole joke is " hurhur Human-LIzard sex", now this is runing joke of series, there was in-game book sequal to that in-game book, and character of lizard maid has more fan-art than some of the plot critical charcters from game.

I voted for bro-mance , way better, than generic your main character therefore I am obligated to be your love intrest. Or maybe Match-mance, were we work as matchmaker and wingmen for our companions

If vampires must be included, then make them diffrent from generic, vamps. make them lovecraftian mist like parasites, or maybe just a zombies that were more altered then normal undead so that they can drink blood, or maybe go back all the way to the roots and make them beast like creatures, borderlining on being confused with werewolves

When I think about it I would really prefer if Obsidian would not include half-race, but give instead another sub race , or race I mean in the end all halves are always includead because if there are to races then obviously this race will boink each other and have babes, I would prefer if they would said that diffrent races can't inpregnent each other

two words, fair folk , make them weird, with weird culture, weird, food, weird dress code, and as such , give elves, imperium, big advanced culture, but make it weird, When human will see their cities, he should , feel something similar to , first european visiting far east. They should not understand everything about their culture think that some traditions are weird, stupid and so on but certenly see that this is something big, the game world shoudn't be just human world with diffretn cultures, traditions and so on... and there are also some elves, make them look like their history is equal to that of human nation, don't make them central point , but rather land of another story.

NO, just no , I mean no anthrophomoric race will be ever interesting, because even when developers, will spend months to make them in the end it will always, be human with wolf head, acts like human but have wolf friendship, end other such bullcrap, the only interesting beastmen that I know tried to change some thing in this topic are beastmens from UFO: afterseries,

what I basicly think is that if you want to put things in your game to make it mature, than it will probobly will not be mature, what anyone who deals with that thing writers, game developers, film makers should do is think what message I want to show through this story, and then just put it and don't try to be mature, you want to tell something about rape, something abour racism, something about religion than put it in, then try to put it in and don't think about it in categorys of is this mature enough or is this not mature enough, if some one makes story that tells rape is evil but dousn't show much sex, and if someone makes story where rape happens everywhere and all the time and is always described but dosen't try to say anythin about it other than it exist, then what story will be more mature with it's topic?

I like his hair, it isn't generic even if little silly its better, than typical hairstyle for characters. ( this is weird people want weird races with weird cultures, but when there is culture other than generic medevial fantasy everyone wants to change it because it is isn't part of setting)

Cthulhu humanoids, this is something I woudl like tentacles instead of hair, pointy teeths , but not necessary evil but with tendency for blue and orange morality. Myabe somethin elemental but not to much, or something bug like. Generic human with horns, and and tail from butt or aryan wet dream, tends to be slightly boring , the same thing goes with generic wolfs , and cats on two legs.

I don't see any problem with that character, he looks awesome, and at least diffrent then generic aragorn type that some people posted here, and really if hairstyle is the problem, really this hairs style is awesome doc had it and he travelde thorugh time.

I must say I don't think that people villife paladins to bash religion, yeah I think there are some examples of bashing religion, but not in case of paladins here I think it is done mostly because a person that do what is right for the right reasons, and is selfless, is an upiling , hell when you look on some of the classic examples of paladins in rpg they ussualy seem like compete Mary sues, so people decided to make them more appealing by giving them flaws, only that people like dark and brood brown and gray settings so it's easy to make them zelotic, hatefull, and corrupted, only that when you give them thouse flaws, then you don't really have paladin you just have a normal warrior who likes to pretend that he is saint, and this is my problem with paladins, they should be overall symbols of goof behavior their flaws should be that they are to faithfull that they can't see that other people are not like this, or they should have some conflicting views, of what is wrong or right while still trying to be this good guy ( here I would like to mention that I am talking about NPCs, if you want to play as corrupeted paladin than its's okay)

I hope people know that Knights of the Round Table is mythical, not historical. And as J Sawyer stated, the Song of Roland is a mythical writing also, about a military leader written centuries after the facts. So, can we rule out that Charlemagne and his mythical 12 knights of the round table had not to do with slaughtering of saxons in Verden? The Roland account is much more myth than reality, he was a military leader that followed the practices of "christianization-by-the-sword", a popular practice by the Pope's Church. So, i reinstate, from the historical perception, a paladin is a fanatic defender of their faith (and reign, and church), a defender of all that is good and right from his perspective (ie. slaughtering pagans is a good deed). Did I implie somewhere that I belive that KotRT or Tweleve Paladins are real? I just say that they pretty much ( in my view at least) serve the same role, as medival examples how knights should act , and a way to entertain courts of kings. I am clearlly aware that they don't exist, I just like this archetype and plays on it.

With greek monsters ther is one problem they are popular you don't need any research to get gist of them all, thats why while its really hard to make them properly, it is possible to make them really interesting but this art that is much harder than other mythological creatures, What I would like is maybe, something Slavic, ( also who said that Russian isn't slavic, Russians, are like archetype of Slavic, and I am from Poland , I am obligated by law to hate them ), or maybe African, or from America either North or Mezo

I would love to see some goody good good palandin but presented in subtle way I never did find whats so appeling with corrupted , evil characters, that everybody so much like, it starded in rpgs with examples of good behavior than to make them more realistic they made them overly zealotic and hammy, and more intereseted in order, and then that was to unrealistic so Paladins changed to corrupted evil warlords,( granted not in any cRpg I know here i speak only about pen and paper rpgs) I kinda miss some more traditional character model .

You know what , I for a change would love to see such character as villain, think about name one rpg where villain do things just for the evulz, I dare you

yep this guy above is the right one paladins were pretty much Knights of round table of France or rather teritory that was ruffly in todays france

please, no dragons or at least handle it in more orginal way than gigant lizard that we need to kill with informed ability about being clever, and inteligent, use some other creature, how about feyfolk, we never see any good representation of fey folk , usually they are made in to little fairys rather than slenderman monstrosites. AND IF you need to bring dragon, than took note from iron kingdoms, rather than classic DnD aka dragons, are great old ones of the universal eldritch abominations that don't even need to look like Dragons, why don't more people go this way?

wow, so deep... no, not really ,"life is cliche" is cliche sorry for this spam

the cliqe , that I want to see is an adventure, pure and simply, some type of journey from, simple zero to the great hero, the story doesn't need to be about saving the world , but I would like to see that form of progress, like in BG or NwN 2 we start as a peasnt/ shelttered child and at the end we have our own castle, and can face of god.( now if this happen I would prefer to not have battle, with him, gods fight are cheap in rpgs, the same thing is happening with dragons)

You are all aware that adventure guild is not requiered to have full party? From what I heard , you can construct party from companions in game and not once go to adventure guild , it is just a option for thouse who want to challange themselves with certeain class combination, or play just for the game and not story (belived or not there are such people). Also people need to stop using argument of immersion, just roleplay , In Icewind Dale you creater your whole party, and nobody talked, and still characters from this games have propobly more interesting backstory and motovation then my charname from BG. I swear on Bethesda forum I have seen situation when people say that because they can't bumps uglies and marry one character it breaks their Immersion

It is really not that important I mean in no infinity engine games was enough cursed items to make it matter, and I don't expecy much diffrence in this game . And just because I need to say it your signature..... so awesome ... just so awesome , I just want you to know it

I am not sure everything that makes a party member more independent ( s/he have his own story that is in some way part of your story rather than being that random guy who just feels like helping total stranger, and go with him on year long journey) but with this thing is problem, if this is scripted than what happens is Bishop from , NwN2 first playign: what?what? bishop why what will I do Bishop? ( imersiv) second : I should seen that comming this is so awesome ( not imersive but impresive) third playing : and now I will take all your stuff and throw few cursed items in there, ( not imersiv, not impresive) Anyway nothing will beat betreyer from Batten Kaitos

I would like to see, a squid /humanoid, race but maybe not the ilithid like, this was done to death and Ilthid themselves are just small wingless cthulu, maybe give them beak like face, with tentacle hair, and long squid hands? about trait, I don't want a whole race to have one trait, I am okay with main culture that shows something they value but is not universal, also I don't like warrior culture, and evil race of pure evil, what I would love to see is philosophy that is alien but understandable after giving it a look, and that is just expy of asian philosophy, quinari in Dragon age, at least in first one I don't know about second pull it quite well, and name it is just a name, I would also like to have lizardmen race, something similar to warrans in Arcanum , but here i am a little scepticall All that said it dousn't matter to me that much , I just hope it will not just be something that is human with animal head and a gimick , this main problem with all beast races in all game . To make it short, if this will be beast race, give them human face, with animal elements, maybe something like silurians in nuWho , do not make them klingons aka race that is basicly one thing and theri whole life goes around this one thing. Take diffrent cultures and mix them, you have a aquatic race that lives near coast mix three sea farring races, and from every one of culture take one thing, if it will be properly mixed it will be much more interesting than just proud warrior race .Also please no sparkly race, aka not half elementals, no half fey, godlike are okay but one race like that is enough I never liked genasi, in D&D because i feel they should have much more interesting way of thinking than just humans but with fance burning hair. But the most important thing do the thing that you as game developers and story creators feel will work the best, nobody truly understand story like it creator,
