i dont understand how can anyone dislike spiders... they are addorable little things that avoid contact with humans as much as spiderly possible. it would be nice if all insects had that mentality, especially flies and mosquitoes.

i for example dont save very often... if certain games had no autosave function, i could play for hours only to die and have to restart the whole thing. i dont want games that do not allow me to save whenever i want, but i just dont use it if i get too into it. however i certainly do not pretend that since i dont have the habbit of saving every 5s the save system of the game should prevent others from doing so

AD&D doesn't have real-time combat either. Planescape: Torment and Baldur's Gate are based on AD&D and are RTwP games. Mindblowing, I know. Anyway, Torment was "marketed" as a spiritual successor to Planescape: Torment during the Kickstarter, but that is not what the backers will get. let's see. torment was a game about the journey of an immortal nameless amnesiac in search of his past. 90% of the gameplay was about his interaction with the world and people around him and how these interactions shaped his character in the attempt of the one who gave him immortality to understand the nature of men. combat was a minor part of the whole, meant to provide some chalenge to a game that played more as an adventure, and was what it was because the more combat oriented BG and IWD had the system ready. and about the contradictions, since combat is not the important part it doesnt really matter if it is TB or RT, so you cant just say "the game is ruined because of the combat system". arcanum had a combat system that sucked in both RT and TB mode, yet it is hailed as one of the best RPG ever

here's what i would like. PE is set in a fantasy world with a developement level similar to our 17th-18th century. how about for the next KS they move time in the same world forward? puting the new game in a time similar to what our 22nd century may be for a cyberpunk experience, or push it to 25th century for a space opera. thinking about it, they could even use late 19th century for a steampunk look

Torment ruined by turn based combat system... implying Torment is about combat

I'm really not that worried by how people capitalise it, everyone knows what is meant either way which is the important thing. It really was more of a question about why people capitalised it that way since it was illogical. Got a sensible suggestion (ta, Hurlshot) so I'll go back to laughing at the people who do get very upset about things like lower case o's. there are native english speaking people who swap they're with their and think it's right... o or O in an acronym is the least of the problems the english language has

i dont thnk they said anything about that so far. what im more interested about, is if we can get the option to finish off or spare enemies that droped to 0 stamina but not 0 hp... at least those of sentient races, sparing monsters and animals would be meaningless ouside of quest requirements

well if any famous actors are among the backers and want to volunteer for a few voice overs i would not mind, but i dont think it's going to happen

they dont. look closer, they blow to pieces and are scattered around

i didnt even bothered to look... if it's not there you may proceed otherwise just ignore this post

in the end, the game does have a system that should satisfy everyone you want to change your decisions every time you dont like the result? just play normal mode you can hold back the urge to reload if something does not go your way? play any mode you want you dont want to change your decisions but can't resist the urge to reload? play trial of iron the people of the 3rd category are the ones that usually care about save scumming and think that everyone should play with certain saving restrictions just because they need them

considering that part of the team will have nothing to do after a certain phase of production, they may as well get to prepare a draft for the next in house IP for a next kickstarter. that means the next ks will have more to show from the start... hopefully

i did mention in a very old thread that they could have easter eggs like: a character portrait from PE will decorate the wall of a house in torment or a mosaic in an old church in PE will show a landscape of torment and such. so mostly decorative stuff that you may or may not spot as you play, but no concrete interaction... it just doesn't fit

so? someone wants to play like this why deny him the option to do so? if you cannot resist the temptation to scumm, it's your problem and the rest of us who can resist or just want to scumm, dont have to pay for your sin by being forced to play the way YOU want to

there are a lot of difficulties when it comes to porting a game to consoles. the game itself uses a light engine and is mostly 2D so hardware is not an issue. however to make a port you need the licence for the console BIOS and OS, the agreement of sony or ms to make the game, you need to follow the console maker's pricing policy, and you need to adapt the controls and UI to fit the pad, because let's be honest here, who would plug a m&k on a PS4 to play a game? if you want m&k controls you just play it on pc... the console's main point is to sit back and relax with a controler

here's save scumming logic in a nutshell i save i make a choice i do not like the result i load and change it ... the game should have a system to prevent me from doing this, because if i reload to change the choice it breaks immersion genius!

since i backed torment i got my free copy so i did not think much about it. if you have backed either torment or wasteland 2 it should be available to you from the inxile site. if you only backed PE, wait for someone who knows or try asking at the inxile forums as well so old in fact, it barelly has any graphics

i use chrome and i did it last night with no problems

i found it quite easy myself. so easy and clear in fact, that i find it hard to believe there are people who have problems with it

for me it was ok. i got it all done in one go, with no errors

that may be an indication of the AI's quality?

that's strange. on youtube, the video quality sucked... everything was blurry. on the eurogamer embeded youtube video it was looking sharp and clear of course the good thing is we can still use PE for short, just the P stands for pillars and not project now

if you are refering to my post, i did not ask anything. i simply stated that the use of this method is possible and within budget if they want to give a graphical representation of emotions

in a combat scene you can clearly see an enemy's arm fly off after Geralt's attack
