Sensuki

The Minimalist main UI does seem a bit out of place compared to the others, but as the devs have stated, there will be an optional backing panel for it. My concern is how the assets will scale to higher resolutions. Scripted Interactions and Interstitials seem to have been done at 720p which is the minimum res. These will be tiny at 1440p, which is a shame.

The 2D backgrounds won't be blurry in the game. That's most likely just jpeg compression raping the quality. Unfortunately no one has ever done a PNG / BMP upload of a screeny before. I think a lot of people would like 2D Paperdolls, but they would require a massive amount of 2D art time, this project only has 2 x 2D artists that I am aware of. It's crazy the amount of stuff that Kaz has to do, which means we may not get heaps of his portraits :(

We don't know if fewer maps includes area re-use. BG2 used the same area art for different interiors such as houses and whatnot. Those areas are included in the overall area count (which is over 275). If PE has 150 unique maps, that's pretty darn good. We already know that PE environment art has a lot of asset re-use, but I'm not sure if they fully use the same area art for two different levels.

Sounds like this to me https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/obsidian/project-eternity/posts/858080 Imagine that ball as a character.

I probably wouldn't even have entered this conversation if ManifestedISO said something controversial. What he said was completely normal however especially considering the context, and had several people arcing up about what he said. This kind of overzealousness ruins the flow of discussion on many forums, and it's something I find annoying. I thought it was appropriate to chime in here, specifically where previously I have avoided these discussions with a ten-foot pole because I come here to discuss Pillars of Eternity, not argue about social issues.

Why specifically? AFAIK it's a term that has become popular recently, and in my opinion it refers to people who white knight issues like racism and sexism (among other things) for the wrong reasons. RockPaperShotgun do it for the page hits, and I don't know if it's just me but when I read some of Nathan Grayson's stuff it just seemed like on top of being a popularity stunt he was trying to suck up to the female writer at RPS that was harping on about it as well to earn brownie points. I also use it to refer to the people who might have good intentions but take it way too far, as I thought was the case in this thread. If that makes me an idiot in your eyes, so be it. Doesn't bother me. Then again I come from White Australia and I grew up with Ching Chong Chinaman at middle school. So take that with a grain of salt if you wish.

Anyone who accidentally picked a weekend can re-vote. Regarding opt-outs. It should be fine if you're on a date with multiple people (no pun intended), but if you're the only person that got it there's not really much point opting out.

I think the color palettes for cloth especially could use some work, and a few more colors at least. The IE colors had a cool gradient effect as well where they were bright in the middle and darker on the outside. The PE ones do have a slight gradient but not hugely noticeable.

Most likely.

It's not a shockwave it's a circular blur effect, it's diameter is taller than the human PC model (which is extreme). All that is really needed is small, unique hit effect on the unit. You can see that they've been knocked prone. A shockwave to me is more like what the skuldr blur effect is, something in a line, or a cone. Like the Tauren Chieftain Shockwave in Warcraft 3. Lots of discussion on issues helps the devs make an informed decision if they don't already have a solidified one already.

One reference as far as I can tell. I used to like that show when I was younger, but that's just not my style of humor anymore. Satire or bust. Trailer Park Boys is the modern best comedy show, hands down. I would have got it as soon as you said that line. I know the main title off by heart Where a couple o guys that were up to no good, started making trouble in mah neighbourhood! I'm not sure why you would bring it up though. I have pretty high attention to detail for stuff I am interested in. The PE team asked for feedback and I'm giving feedback. So far PE is good, but if everyone just said "yeah nice job guys woo hoo" then that's not very constructive. Granted I was the first person to bring it up, but I'm not the only one that finds the knock down FX off putting. It's just supposed to be a simple mundane ability, with a simple effect. PE is as close to my dream game as it's probably going to get, and I'm probably going to be one of the most anal bunts (see if you get that reference ) regarding feedback because I want the game to be the best it can be. I am also a big fanboy of "the IE feels", so most of my suggestions generally fall into that line.

That's not true, people are not always the same as they were when they were children when they grow up, for a number of reasons. I dunno about you guys but SOME of the FX are over the top to me, just like the FX in Grim Dawn are way over the top with too many fluro lights. If I'm noticing that the FX are too strong, then I think that's a bad thing because that's something that rarely ever bothers me.

Green cannot be the default color of anything due to accessibility reasons, but I think it should be an option because of IE feels. The style of the circle (such as 1 pixel) is more important IMO. If you have IE circles and IE distinction between units, the game will "feel" more like an IE game. When I currently look at combat I see ToEE in real-time with not as good animations.

You just quoted a screenshot where the wolf Knock Down has EXACTLY the same effect, with a flame to boot ..... Watch the video and look at the WOLF knock down, it's the SAME as Calisca's. I have no doubt the torch has a flame effect, but so does Knock Down.

You can have the same date as someone else. I can't. You can't edit your posts after like 30 minutes. A moderator has to do it for me.
