Do you want firearms in Project Eternity?
but in WOW technology and magic or on par, thats why they coexist in relative harmony, and a hunter with a bow does the same damage he does with a rifle

Sex and Romance Poll
Not all Obsidian games and they were bad in those too. And they probably had to include them because publishers wanted them. h the evil publisher is at fault when a game has features i dont like, nevermind all the other fans that appreciate said feature and the devs who felt they wanted to include it you need to realize that the world doesnt revolve around yourself I think you're projecting and you should take your own advice. I never implied the world did. I've been saying it's Obsidian's choice and that they're not fans of them and it's pretty obvious they're pretty bad in general. You're just upset because you might not be getting your romances. There's always DA3. And if you can't wait for that, you can fire up the Witcher and look at your sex cards. unlike you im not campaigning for the exclusion of features that a good portion (majority if this poll is to believed) of the fanbase enjoys because i personally hate them the presence of romances (which is really only a subset of npc relations - do you dislike all of them?) doesnt affect you if you chose to ignore them, yet you want to deprive others of the pleasure. that is a sad attitude

Sex and Romance Poll
you are a sad little man. all the obsidian games had romance in them, why is it so outrageous to assume that this one will as well?

Sex and Romance Poll
So instead we only focus on some hack and slay for people who can't get a good killing spree done in real life and need to compensate for missed army time? This doesn't even make any sense. I play RPGs where I kill monsters because I can't kill humans in the army? Are you serious? exactly, it doesnt. that was his whole point, to show you how ridiculous your argument was

Human supremacy in Eternity world
humans are a popular choice for a playable race because it allows players to easily identify with them so getting rid of humans entirely would be hard however one could turn the usual human supremacy on its head and make them a minor subjugated species struggling against a seemingly almighty oppressor - this could be the aforementioned ilithid slavedrivers, or a favorite of mine, a race of evil sadisic overlords like the drow

Is the camera going to be locked? :(
if camera absolutely must be locked due to 2d backgrounds, at least let us inspect the avatars close up from any angle on the character screen they said models would be 3d so that should be easily doable

Sex and Romance Poll
inner-party relationships are mandatoy if your aiming for a realistic and mature world however think about it, a group of 4, 5, 6 (actually, how many willit be exactly?) out in the wilderness and dungeons for weeks and months all by themselves - theres bound to be romance and sex eventually, and resulting jealousy and rivalry. it would be nice however if it werent all focused on the PC. relationships should evolve naturally between all party members, and if the PC tarries too long he might find himself the odd man out without a partner, at which point he needs to slay or otherwise dispose of a competitor to claim one for himself which can result in many potentially interesting roleplaying opportunities

Gather Allies in Four Sides of the World to Fight the Ancient Big Baddie?
tropes to avoid: -ancient evil rising -hero has amnesia -village peasant turns out to be chosen one but since MCA will be writing this its safe to assume that none of this will be included, or will be subverted in some way

So, realtime with pause...
same here. turned based makes sense for handhelds because of reduced cpu power, but since this will be a pc exclusive there is no reason to not go real time I give you one reason: having a deep tactical combat like in X-Com, Jugged Alliance and Tactics Ogre (sacrilege, a console game !!!!) baldurs gate and icewind dale also had good tactical combat while being real time with the added benefit of being more immersive. it depends more on the encounter design than what system you use Not as deep as the games I mentioned (tactically speaking) . And, belive me, if you know all the balancing issues of AD&D (as I knew when I bought Baldur's Gate, having played AD&D for years), you can win 9 out 10 encountes using the same tactic. Slightly different story for IWD... however this game will not be AD&D so that point is moot obsidian have all the freedom to create their own system that is tailor made for RTWP and that offers the same or more depth than a turned based one

Stretch Goal - hire Justin Sweet to make portraits.

[Merged] The races of the world, Please something other then Elves/Dwarves/Orcs/Humans?
dwarves and elves are pretty boring and overused but how about drow and their equivalent duargar dwarf counterpart? obviously they cant use these names as they belong to AD&D but they could use the same concepts drow are very underused in rpgs. they featured prominently only in NWN underdark expansion and had some minor appearenes in other games so there is a vast potential there and it would fit the mature tone that obsidian said they are aiming for

- Purely isometric, or mix of isometric, third-person and cinematic?

For devs - bad communication is hurting the project
be that as it may, this is their DREAM project, wher they can do everything that publishers dont allow them to, and its their only chance so they should be 1000% behind this doing whatever they can to promote it and get more cash so Im also surprised that there is not more activity from MCA and the crew d days after the KS went live
