Cryticus

I do not like romances, not because of the concept I like relationship between diffrent characters and love , friendship , rivaly is one of them, It is just the fact, that all romances are pointed not to expand on character but rather so one fictional character could bone another fictional character, pure fanservice. What I want from obsidian is that they will concertrate on other aspects of relationship . And if we need to make romances than make them orginal, how about there is romance that happens but not between our hero and a companion, but between two companions and we serve as machmaker for them, hey it is romance

That was the idea, actually. It's one of the things that made that quest so memorable, in my opinion I must agree, the fact that we coudn't exposed the truth was the best decision they could make, this was one of things that actually change it from just another mystery to something orginal, in the end only you knew the truth nobody will ever belivie you and conspiracy is still going, it shows that your character is just a part of the world, and world do on center around him. That said I would like to see another quest like that, maybe not about conspiracy theory but something that spans whole game world

I don't exactly see a problem with lack of atheism, I mean if the gods I real and you know that they are real why would you not belive in them ? You as a character do not need to pray to them but should acnowlegde their existence, but this is not technicaly atheism, To make it short being atheist in world where gods are real and you know that they are real is kind like beliving in creationsim, it dousn't makes sense and only show that someone is stuborn ,and if it just about your own belife to be represented in game rather than belife of someone else them ,hey it is just a game I am catholic and yet I dont have any problem with lack of Jesus in P:E Just mine opinion, I could interpret what you mean in a wrong way, if so than I am sorry

This is really something that just need to be executated in good manner. Look for example on Bethesda Morrowind , we play choosen one , but for once he is choosen one of one religion that is technicaly just a sect, the prophecie isn't about saving the world just saving a group, and what i feel is the greates idea is that we arent choosen one because we were born the choosen one, we are choosen one because we do what chooes one was supposed to do.

Okay changed my mind this cliche could at least be rewritten .

I would rather have cliches, I am not of that people that think that just because something was done before it is infiriour to somethin that is new. Games are played to have fun, and story or characters can be cliqe, and very fun, NwN 2 was full of them, and yet I had much fun in playing that for example NwN Its about execution . As said making everything diffrent and uniqe, just for the sake of screaming look at , look at it I have race of three headed, four leged, six armed, rhinos with pig snouts I am so Orginal. Certain things just work , LotR is famous for a reason,

When it comes to mega dungeon what I would like to see is I think something that works like this. Every level of the dungeon is independent of other but have some ties to the over all story for the dungeon to show case it , I mean somethin like this level 1 city, that lives near entrece to some forgotten ruins of the haunted civilization they are attack by bunch of weird monsters from the ruins you help them and go deeper level 2 archeological excavation that have finded some mystical mc guffin level 3 a monster camp were you learn that monsters arent doing it because they want to level 4 mastermind lair. Basicly after compliting one lever you complyt it story and if you are willing you can go deeper to learn more

I don't really have any problem with soul being stand in for mana , mainly because they said that souls will be important and that already suggest that it woud not be simply name change for energy. Basicly I susspect that it may be something similar to lifestream in FF7 as in soul will be that mystical source of energy, THAT world is aware of and that can be interesting sort of modern play of concept of deal with a devil you get awesome power but for the cost , of the soul. That said it is only my owne idea and Obsidian my plan something compltly diffrent but hey speculation is speculation

I want something large, and maybe even needlessly complicated and I am here serious , I love to spend hours with character creation having fun with stats, traits, class, races, background, something in vein of second NwN , what I don't want to see is what bioware did with mass effect and dragon age 2 where you play one character who can be either jerk, good guy or a fool

I'm getting this sort of a vibe from your post: "There is only one type of Magic user, they're all evocation specialists that throw fireballs. Magic users specialized in Transmutation style magics, Illusion style magics, Enchantment style magics, Divinination style magics and many other styles of magical application do not exist, and never have existed, and because of the existence of one style of high damage magic user none of these other types should exist." Correct me if that was not the vibe you wished me to get. I'm not even for the idea particularly, I just think . . . there's something amiss in your view of magic users. Nope, what I mean is that in crpgs and even in normal rpgs, no class should make other class obsolit, mage my practice illusion, mage my practice destruction, mage my practice conjuration, the thing is to make them orginal so that illusion mage can not do everything better and more than thief

God , please, no, mages are already shown as high damage dealers, and tide turners of battle, giving them another abillity to make them better sneak character than sneak characters , also argument that magic is extordinary is stupid by that logic mages should be immortal best fighters , best thiefs, best at everything, and also immortal

played them all and everone i completted at least twice, Baldurs gate II four times, hell, I even somehow ended with three diffrent cds with Baldurs gate , so I think this isn't situation like Wasteland, i am pretty sure that any one who have ever been remotly interested in Rpgs must have played at least one if not all IE games,

Yes I liked to have non humanoid companion, liked Dogmeat in Fallout, I liked Ed-e in Fallout new vegas.That said I must say I have something to say that, if this dog is supposed to take place as a member of party, that i will pass, we will probobly only have seven companions, wasting one slot on non speaking companion even if it is non humanoid , will fill like a wasted, what I would like is to make them in vein of familarias in Baldurs gate 2 with slightly bigger talking option, or maybe if we have a player house we can have a animal companion, in there, as form of Npc, Also maybe not dog, dogs belong to fallout, and been usead in DA:O , in Fable 2 and 3 , personally I would like a ferrot, or a parrot, or a hamster, or goblin buttler yes a goblin buttler , Obsidian do hear us we want Goblin butller.

This my sound weird , but what I would like to see in PE is not something that hasn't been done but rather reverese something that has been done, rather than making it another subverison, aversion of some fantasy trope like it appears are latly popular and for me kind of boring, I want it to be basicly, a good story, with simple but interesting characters, some good, some bad, not everone is neutral, or making it grimdark, I was having most fun in second Baldurs gate because for me it wasn't trying to hard to subvert things , it played straight and simple story from zero to hero, and have sometimes very simple characters, Minsc is basicly big not so bright guy who have equaly big heart, and yet I feel he was much more interesting then for example Fenris from DAII (I like to harp on this game , i dont know why?) then again it is just what i feel.

I don't doubt that, I just wanted to say that good story dousn't need to convey any deeper meaning or, such

I voted for special death animation only for bosses and special characters , I don't need that much gore just to know that things are dead. Even for my immature self death scene from Baldurs gate when person hitted with dagger would explode in to pieces, or. dA:O where after killing rat you are completly from head to toe coverd in Blood are little to much

I don't want the game and characters to be treated to seriously, I really hate when games try to desperetly destroy every single humors thing just to try pretend that they saying something deep, Baldurs gate didnt try to make too much of a deep story, it was generic history from zero to hero about chosen one...of many and from all infinity enginee games this was the most fun to play there was balance Planescape also have forms of humor and could get away with trying to have deep story because the story was generlly very good to follow.

Inqusition has arrived to perform its duty, in the name of god emperor of mankind , and by grace of Golden throne of terra I procleim exterminatus And to not make it completly a spam this is obviusly troll thread that said I don't have enough money to plege more, and I dont think obsidian can change it as everything I wanted already is supposed to be in the game wait no I can plege more but they need to use plot convieniecnce and make it so that Minsc, Mort, and Khadgar have ended up in PE world, yeah

Am I the only one who hopes that this godlike race allow me to play cthulhu spawn with face tentacles rather than tiefling, hmm, on the other note I just realise that obsidian is secret evil organization of evil geniuses that want from me to became robber, because every update makes me want to plege more and I just simply dont have enough money

I usually do romance sub plots sometimes because I am completionist but usually because they just start and this is I think main problem with them characters that are romanceable when romance sub plot kick in feel like they were desgine not as characters but as love intrest, I always play a good guy and when I talk with character that I like I chose nice options and then bum suddenly everyone want to bone my character , it is somewhat off putting not to mention the fact that in some plots of crpgs romances don't really have sense. So personally if Obsidian don't want to put it in and just feel like they are obligated to put in because of genre than by gork and mork they should not put it in!

I want a robot race , yeah steampunk droids, warforged etc, yeah, i am so lame . But back to the point I don't want demonic because they usually played as some tragic race, or card carying villians, I don't want anything that is bassicly human with animal head, this type of fantasy species annoy me the most and I dont even know why so pleasse no worgens, scallies, , I dont want small races because in most games they are shown as dwarves that arent dwarf enough to be a dwarf if this make any sense.and undead are expy bags you do not talk to the undead, really only thing thing I am okay in this poll is orcs (because green iz da best) and maybe insectoid race but even them are ussualy quite clique

"We coudn"t come up with good and orginal title that contains world soul.... Yeah we know, but lets be true to our selves you all going to call it project eternity any way....." The game

Few things I would love to see are some special unique mini bosses(I just like unique things to kill ) And mainly if they come up with some of their one little critter I woudl like to see them acnoulege existence of this creature in culture of country or race if you have some wild running lizard insect thing that is stand in for wolf in one culture than I would like to see this creature have some form of impact on this culture, proverbs mentioning it, them appering on coat of arms etc.

The game is about souls something that can easily be connected to gods. Personnaly I was always in fantasy games more interested in religion as organization than center being of their belief. If I would have to chose hover I woudl like to see maybe something in vein of one big oversoul (Brahman ,Manitou) but with rennesance catholic pomp . But as I say this is supposedly game about souls, so they may use one god like being, DnD style gods of everything, pantheon that is one but know under diffrent name and combination with diffrent cultures, or maybe oversoul thing. Tl:Dr As long as they don't go lazy route of god of fire, god of water, god of earth I am happy

I agree in most games witch hunters and inquistion types are shown as doing it purly becase they are corrupted and evil rather than making it becase of the fact that they are scared. In real life this fear dosent makes much sense but in world full of real magic , look at the Warhammer universe inqusition is corrupted but their have a very good reason to hunt witches ( they can bring a bloodthirster to wreck chaos on world)
