Pause the video to simulate "/with pausing"

Whilst I see your point (underneath your unnecessary attitude), I wonder how you come to the conclusion that taking a **** needs to be included because of having to have a camp resource. Regardless, to me it isn't about having it be more "real", sure about the complexity, I kind of want some complexity, a.k.a. depth.
A, I think it adds more tactical features and decisions. Should I use the wooden sticks for Torches or for a Camp fire? (Decisions, decisions)
B, Danger and preparation (Light sources).
C, Setting a Camp requires resources. "Camping out" does not. Setting a camp implies that this is a place you'll return too. You could set the camp up in one location on the map, and when you want to move the camp forward you'll gather it up and set it @ new location. It'd cost resources to set a fire, just as it'd cost resources to craft herbs (a Camp could serve as a general "go-to" place for crafting various "on-the-field" items)
D, "Fun" is "Perspective"
C Scenario:
I enter a dungeon, clearing the "LZ", I set up a camp (not resting or anything) move forward, take down some monsters/enemies whatever and then I go back, gather the camp together and move it forward. A mobile Command Center~ Pack Mules could serve this function as well. There could be areas where the "Camp" doesn't even fit physically (even more mitigating "where" you can Rest).
Recently saw "The Postman" (A classic movie nowadays with Kevin Costner). For inspiration:
EDIT: And the most important scene in that movie includes a freezing man and a zippo lighter.

The game does not need to simulate those elements of the economy in order to tell its story. Just think of them as being located on the parts of the map you can't visit. EOM.
But can the audience relate to the story if it floats within some sort of societal void? Does it feel convincing, and resonate with people, or is it just another fairy tale in some fantasy paradise? Personally I think the idea of "Oh, this stuff is just going on elsewhere, and you'll never witness it" is quite unimaginative, and could be applied to nearly any thread here.
Depends, does the farmer work on a large farm where there's 100's of workers that after their workday go home to Big City 1 where you can meet them and get the explanation of how it all works? Baldur's Gate had 2 areas just outside that had farmlands, Nashkel had farmlands as well, Friendly Arms Inn had some cows.
In Might & Magic 1 food is just "Food", with no explanation to it at all. Sometimes you only need to show 5% to immerse the rest of the 95%.
How much needs to be explained versus how much do we fill in the blanks?
-
How and why?
EDIT: Motivate.
-
Actual darkness in dungeons without a lightsource? Yes please. A game where torches actually means something would be awesome.
Torches aren't just Torches but a limited amount of wood that you can carry with you for camping resting as well? Weighing tons. Either you've got 12 torches in your backpack (as you wouldn't be able to carry more on 1 character) or 1 camp for 3 torches. This way you'd be both conservative with using torches and, more importantly, abusing the "Camp" function.
Could "Camping" cost resources?
Yea, that sounds real fun.
I can't gauge if you are being sarcastic or not.
I'm still curious about that... could "camping" cost some sort of resource?
Food or some "wood"/light source.
In Might & Magic Food is just a "number", you don't get to choose if you want apples or beef, it is just "Food = 12" and that's that. Simplistic and works for immersion (simple and rocking it). It would make resting less abusing. "Can't rest because I don't have enough resources"~ heck, if you don't have enough resources you could rest as well, but it'd up the ambush encounters by +50% or something (with resources you'd rest with 25% chance of random ambush/encounter or something~conceptual thoughts).
What do you guys think? Would it cause more problems than it is worth?
-
In before the "Knock knock" jokes.
Will you be able to barge your way in? Will you be able to "trick" your way in? "I'm a government official and we have heard strange rumors about this house! You need to leave so we can make a full inspection!!" (Lying)
Sales pitch? Jehovas witness? (I can see that as a joke, some NPC walking around knocking on doors trying to spread some religious propaganda)
What with the written word not being in the game, "door-to-door salesmen" could be running around handling business.
Could you send off one character to sell "vendor trash" items like this? *Parties in Cities

*ahem*
Will there be Dragons?
*ahem*
Will there be Dragons?
Dragons, dragons everywhere!
Please, don't include them. Lizards are good, even dragonlings, but not full-sized dragons in yet another game.
Deathclaws!
But yeah. Dragons are alrdy pissin' every1 off.
Not mentioning that now every kid knows that they're nothing more than a primitive people's interpretation of ancient flying machines.
Yes.. NO Dragons and NO Demons, too, please.. at least not the Balor/Balrog etc. types.. we've really seen enough of them.. I think, that especially a greater variety of mystical, natural or even unique creatures would be very welcomed.. for example I really loved the giant toads in TToEE or Myconid/Plant-like creatures (except Treants and Shamblers).. what about Fauns, Manticors and Centaurs for example, special "creaturized" Worms/Snails, .. or even "lovecraftian" creatures?
One single Dragon can really set a tone in any fictional work (Smaug).
13-14 Dragons ruins it and makes Dragons boring (Skyrim).
How would the inclusion of one or two dragons (and not more) affect your experience of the game? A Full-Grown Dragon (in whatever way it is) in my opinion needs to be "Epic", Legendary and Rare. Not something you stumble upon in your first dungeon to say the least.
Hormalakh brought up this, and although it isn't entirely true for a Dragon (but it could be another monster/object) I can see it being more interesting if some "Ancient Beast of Wisdom & Destruction". Who doesn't want to cook and eat a Dragon's heart and gain an insightful Dragon's Wisdom?

^No, I understood your point but came up with another idea instead of blindly agreeing with you (that doesn't mean I don't agree with you). Did you understand my idea?
I'm speaking about running as an "ability". Similar to a Spell, you click to use it then you click in which direction you want to run "Hey! Run that direction!" or "Charge that enemy!". Still keyboard+mouse controlled. Let me try to explain in words:
You click the ability, a ring appears around your character (How far range they've got on running) you click at the edge of the ring and your character runs that way and that far. With pausing you have enough control to do it on all of your characters, what I am trying to do is not "Let's do this!" but more like "Hey is this a solution? Is this a solution? Is this a solution?".
Poll to take into consideration as well.

What's happening in the video? Gragas is the fat man in purple~ throwing what looks like a giant wine bottle. Amumu is the small green guy/mummy guy. The red line and mark on the small guy is Caitlynn's ultimate ability (Shooting a sniper shot). Gragas uses an ability to make him dash and take the damage of the shot (saving Amumu from death).
EDIT: In short; Gragas doesn't just dash, he saves a party member because he can dash.

I'm personally on the side that likes the art. I think many of us thought it was going to be more beastial (myself included) but seeing what the concept art is thus far I'm getting a grasp of what kind of world P:E is in conceptual genealogy, and a like-sized grasp of what Obsidian is aiming for. There are going to be Godlike races after all, could beastiality be tied to being some of the Godlike+Race?
A Human with the fish skin like Aumaua, a Half-Race to many but really a Human touched by one of the Aumaua Gods. Or an animal God has touched a Dwarf, making him more furry, beastial. How will the Godlike races affect the appearance of the core races?

What if it is a "Dash"? Burst speed forward to a location. Then it can be in any direction (like Zelda and friends), if Running/Charging/Dashing is a "ranged" ability. EDIT: Then it could be like you, the player, is telling your character "Run that way" and they'll run for a bit (dice rolls could be included, "slipping on a banana peel" or if their morale is high they could even run faster).
-
"Oh crap oh crap oh crap oh crap oh crap!" is always fun just to take a quick breather where you think you are safe for a second or two and then "Oh crap oh crap oh crap!!!".
Something that feels like an ordinary dungeon, you go down and defeat the dungeon boss, that either transforms into something or defeating the boss causes something to happen that chases us through the dungeon. That could work. The safe spot could even be getting outdoors and still being chased for a bit before finally getting away.
-
Wha...? You misunderstand (I made myself misunderstood again? Pfft, it happens, sorry), all I'm saying is: My dream is to see Obsidian succeed.
And I am not saying that I will not play game because I dont like look of one race? Ha. And why are there forums If I dont post my opinions about it? And why would Obsidian public these arts if they dont want us to discuss it? And I am not forcing my opinion to anyone.*looks at my post* I'm sorry if I conveyed some sort of doubt in yourself some way that I did not intend for, but I don't see how you think I questioned anything of this. I'm just saying that "expectations = bad".
EDIT: (Opinion) The coloring of the Naga like creatures (that you posed) could fit as a skin tone for the presented WIP concept art.

You're drifting somewhere strange. What I told about you are controlling one character (for rare ones some short-timed summons without any active abilities, as an addition) and you are focusing in controling only your hero abilities (4 at a time + ones from items) and be aware of 20 or so enemy skills from which less than 5 are dodgable by positioning (not breaking the range). All that is for half an hour of gameplay, and more so, you are familiar with all possible skills and most of behavioral patterns already. Completely different gameplay.
That's all about user interaction and attention focus. And that's why exactly such games have 4 or so abilities, and not say 10 or 15.
Btw, my younger brother is gold-ranked in LoL, so don't lecture me on it )
Yes, I am controlling 1 character out of 5.
Let's play a game of BGEE and invite 3 friends. Same bloody thing in concept (controlling 1 character out of 5). That's all I really wanted to say.
I am not suggesting that the pacing of the League should be implemented. Obviously it won't (what with pausing and 6 party members). It makes sense to be able to dodge spells and abilities. No, seriously, it does. Someone is raising his two handed hammer to crush me? Like hell am I going to stand there and take that. Oh snap the enemy is throwing a fireball spell or an eruption from the ground? (Brand) Am I just going to stand there and take it? No. I'll be doing my best to run away from that. Likewise, is the enemy just going to stand there and take it when I throw apocalypse on them?
More League parallels:
I am also focusing how I can support the team best and where I should stand and position myself so I can aid as many as possible at once. So no, I am not focusing on my champion abilities I am focusing on everyone's abilities. I press tab to be "aware" of what items my team members as well as my opponents choose, I am aware where everyone is on the map and I ping/SS for my team mates etc. etc. but that's all part of the competitive play. I am not lecturing you, I am telling you how I play. Two different things, but I s'pose it could be lecturing as well if you want to see it like that.
I am not saying that dodging should be pre-dominant, but that it should definitely be a part of the experience and "How can you make that better?". There are tons of instances in Baldur's Gate where I need to dodge (manually, I have to click one party member to go somewhere else or else everyone gets affected by a group spell/AoE spell).
It already is a part of the experience in the old games, am I misunderstanding that you want it to be removed?
I just want it to be better (opinion). EDIT: And more active (opinion).
Percentage to direct aim and static aoe ones?Doesn't matter if there are direct aim/homing skills 70%-30%, even if there are 30% skill shots in LoL that's roughly 100 Abilites. Even some of the Direct Hit Spells can be used as a Skill Shot by themselves (Shields mostly). That's not even taking the Items with Activated abilities into considerations.
Well. You said that yourself. And what is that anything other than button mashing - timing clicks to milliseconds?I explain this further down but:
Timing = press button at the right time in the right situation for the right moment (once).
Button mashing = Press, Press, Press, Press, Press, Press, Press, Press!!! God of War springs to mind.
Pretty much dislike when I had to do work simple script could do better.Obviously we are split here. I am using my entire party (manually) without scripts. I have no input on this.
The game as a whole - isn't. Dodging direct click skills in half-second interval of their flight by activating tumble or golden hourglasses - is button mashing definitely. And I don't want such things to form the combat in PE.*nods* I don't know, button mashing sounds "negative". It is like pressing "X, X, X, X, X" on a PS3 controller when in fact (In LoL) it is more like having the mouse pointer down the lane to escape downwards at the same time as having your finger on "W" with being ready on "E" as well as "2" for an item and "F" for Flash and "D" for Exhaust. Keeping an eye on the minimap at the same time etc. etc. yeah I think you get it but, that's just what I wanted to say:
Button mashing = X, X, X, X, X, X, X, X
LoL = Q, Q, W, E, R, D, F, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 as hotkeys/buttons/abilities. Might be some more.
Whilst I don't want a League of Legends combat to form the P:E one, I'm merely stating that there is lots to be inspired by (that LoL does very good!!). How can you take something from League of Legends and use in and tweak for P:E?
Both fireball and horror would hit the one was targeted. Not to cluster your party when aoe is involved is completely other thing than dodging individual bullets. Mechanically wise and gameplay-wise altogether.Both Fireball and Horror are Skill Shots as well. You don't have to "Target Enemy" (click on enemy), you can "Attack-Ground" (Like Catapults in WC3 or Siege Tanks in SC2). They were skill shots, there are more similar spells like that (Bless is one too). Okay I'm not 100% about Horror but I am 100% about Fireball and Bless and other various spells that you can press "on ground" and not on the enemy. My Druid in IWD has a Tsunami/Wave spell that shoots a wave in the direction I am aiming it (regardless if I aim it on an enemy or if I press on the ground).
[Name one rpg-like game with better AI considering positioning and map travel.Haven't really thought about it, excellent rebuttal
DotA for WC3 had better AI handling no doubt about it (late DotA Wc3). The bots were actually challenging. But you are correct, can't really think of any. I personally think that Baldur's Gate has a more interesting AI, but in terms of positioning and map travel? Hm nope can't think of one. Doesn't change the fact that the AI in LoL sucks (in terms of skill level. It is a walk in the park, the hardest difficulty in Co-Op vs AI feels like Casual). -
I wanted a reptile non-humanoid water thing shark owl Aumakua turtle Hawaiian giant dream character but seeing that this Obsidian's concept I'm digging it. Either you follow Obsidian's dream or you follow your own and get disappointed (another form of it is "having expectations") *shrug*
Though at first glance I thought they were just humans, upon further inspection they are different... and hey, I like it
they seem cool. Can't say too much more as they don't have any fleshed out Lore yet. But for some reasons I think the Samoan/island coastal discussions might play a part in it, with their already vague "revealed-by-Obsidian" Lore.Good job Obsidian

Ah okay, yep, I pretty much knew I misunderstood the question but went with it anyways. Thanks for explaining
It is self-rewarding when you manage to dodge that difficult ability. Blitzcrank in League of Legends, he has a powerful hook ability (he throws a hook forward, and if he grabs you he'll pull you too him where all his friends are standing). It is so rewarding to be able to dodge that ability, then counter-attack whilst this ability is on Cooldown. That's really the only reason why dodging is awesome.
Likewise there is a character called Vayne who can tumble (in League of Legends) and whilst doing so becomes "invisible" and you can't damage her, a Magic Missile being shot at her and she does the "tumble" thing right when it is needed to negate all the damage would be an awful lot of cool as well. With the Pause, however, dodging might be very easy.
First thing: LoL is based on single hero play, and each hero has roughly 4 abilities. And there are 5 heroes at max which you are facing at half an hour time span. So it has completely different gameplay.
Next one: even in LoL there is not prevalent amount of abilities that could be really dodged. Direct hit abilities could be negated by becoming temporary invulnerable which is button mashing and bad for D&D inspired stat based game game, imo.
The last one: the game would be stat based, so dodging should rely on character stats, not player input. If player-controlled dodge ability would be implemented it would be action-rpg hybrid with dexterity as dump stat. Why ever I need it, if I could do everything manually? Stat based spell dodging = ranged touch attack.
The very last one: LoL have one of the most complex bot AI-s in such games, dedicated and attuned to small bunch of maps. But still it's pretty stupid, and deals pretty badly with positioning against unique-mechanics abilities.
First: Wrong. It is based of 5v5 gameplay (DotA) and party setup (it is most likely inspired by the IE games) and teamwork is the most important part of it. Sure, I only have control of 1 character, but together we are one unit. Riot games have started with this "Pro-Tip" stuff during the loading screen and one of them is "Do you value individual skill above teamwork?". With the abilities I have as Janna (as an example, she is a support champion) I control whether my team mates take damage, if they are low on health I can save them, heal them and push away the enemies so on and so forth. However, I play League of Legends like it is a sport (not for entertainment only). Pro-Player
Second: Wrong. There are tons of skill shot abilities in League of Legends. There are 117 Champions. I do agree that it could mean getting a temporary invurnability, I'm not saying that it'll be "instant casting" and super easy to "time" exactly when you should use the ability. Perhaps it takes 1 second just to "activate" it to enter 1 frame for a millisecond so you negate the damage. The point wasn't to become invulnerable, the point is "timing". Actually being able to Skillfully dodge damage. Would you be able to do it constantly? Probably not. It would require you to stay focused in the battle. And not just "Rook to D-7". Chess is fun though.
Don't misunderstand League of Legends with button mashing, because it isn't, it is very tactical. It is more aggressive and more action than the IE games. The IE games are way more passive. Both of these games draw their roots from Chess. Each character in the party serves a function and you have a King and Queen.
What do LoL and the IE games have in common?
Dodge = Yes both of the game employ manual dodging from manual placed spells
Placement = Placement of manual spells (more modernly called: Skill Shots) or thrown potions
Positioning = Positioning is super important!!
Scouting = Setting up wards and having a fast agile ninja like character (Rogue in the IE games) to scout the jungles in LoL to check for enemies.
Focus Fire = Who do you need to focus to win? The enemy Wizard? The enemy Archer? Who do I protect that the enemy likes to focus?
Gear = Buying items and Equipment to tactically make your party better, to gain additional effects, to gain additional item specific abilities and so on and so forth
Mastery = Skill points, in the IE games this would be equivalent to Proficiency (the IE games are just more simplistic).
Teamwork = Teamwork
Third: There are some abilities in Baldur's Gate that requires manual dodging. A Horror spell only hits those who are within the radius, so whenever it strikes I always scatter my party members away from it. Likewise when an incoming Fireball comes at me. So this is already in the IE games, I'm talking about innovative and new ways (as well as updated ways) to handle it. It is not about LoL mechanics being applied to P:E, but BG mechanics being updated and applied to P:E.
Fourth: Riot games have hardly touched the AI creation and it is soo bad, it is mostly just a "Tutorial" and/or Practice Ground for testing out new builds. Facing the bots is only Ego stroking and nothing else, they suck. Unless there is some fan-made killer AI out there (I haven't looked to be honest). Actually now that I think about it, the AI in League of Legends is utter crap. I could probably win 1 against 5 bots.

Honestly it doesnt make any sense that they would be affected by oceans. Logicaly no race evolve in such small area as coast of Dyrwood so we can expect that they live in other areas of world as well. So lets say that there are Dyrwood clan which have affinity for water. Personaly I dont see much connection to water in their look.
To Osvir
If I show you banana and tell you that its orange you can call it orange all day but we all know its banana.
"It doesn't make sense/logically" followed by "It makes sense/logically". Why even include "it doesn't make sense"? Like you say, their species are probably not born and evolved in the Dyrwood area of the world. If they are anything like the fan-imagined Samoan tribal Aumaua that has been discussed earlier, they probably come from a series of islands in the middle of the ocean (Like the Philippines/New Zealand).
"Personally I don't see much connection..." the concept art isn't colored yet, they seem to have on their foreheads and down the side of their faces some sort of "darker" shading as well as on their forehands stomach, legs etc. etc.. What about that shark-fin on the Barbarian (the one with the axe) on the head?
If you show me a banana that we call an orange (if we call it "orange" there is obviously something about it that makes us call it "orange"), most likely it is a different type of banana with its own set of rules and digestion in the Eco-System.
Doing some coloring....
Dreads = Algea hair
Looking with a zooming glass it looks as if this guy got a Shark fin on the head. So these are Shorcs (Sharks), so their mentality might be closer related/inspired to that predator rather than Orc mentality. Short fuses and snaps/bites easily and quickly (like a Shark).
-
But I'm all with Ieo on this one, it's not really desirable for a game in this style. For one, it'd be impossible (time & cost) to make a world large enough to incorporate any form of realistic differentiation in geography. Not to mention that without fast travelling systems it'd take you hours of walking through beautiful, yet pointless, terrain to get anywhere, and implementing a fast travelling system kind of defeats the point of making it seamless to start with.
Well, Fast Traveling like TES and Fallout 3/NV is in concept like the IE fast traveling. When you find [Location] you can fast travel to it. I thought P:E would have a fast traveling system from point A to point B but I might be wrong? (Update #15-#16) Where in any of the posts in the thread is anyone talking about removing the Fast Travel feature?
Regardless, I'm on the same page.
Nor would it make sense because You'd need a realistic space between geographical regions for geological formations and climates to have logical progression (and it sounds like PE will have significant geographical range).I think it would make excellent sense, "it makes no sense because it logically and realistically does make sense" is what I read from this quote (hence the S).
Yep.
-
Personally, I don't like what the Aumaua look like currently - if that is truly the Aumaua concept sketch. They need to be less like orcs and more like Aumaua. If they're orcish, then just call them Orcs. Don't play this name game without good reason.
It depends on the coloring. They could be "human" colored, looks like they will have "blight" (don't know a better way to explain it), one certain color. I hope turtle-ish. And like someone else said, more like Aumaua and less like Orcs (which looks what we are getting).
*looks at Hormalakh quote, looks at underline*
Personaly I was expecting more from Amuaua. From these 2 concept arts they look like half-orc so why not call them half-orcs when they even fill same role/style (stronger and larger humans)
Because they are Aumauas, and not Orcs.
EDIT: Don't mean to be rude but I think it's important to say: deal with it.

First concern (technical): if you wish to actually track spell projectile movement in game mechanics - you should create a new entity for each spell projectile, not simple visual decal on it's flight (completely different mechanics from currently present). Or make each projectile small moving aoe effect. Both could lead to further concerns and bugs.
The color of the incantation, the symbols that appear on the Wizard as he is preparing to cast could be different depending on what type of spell, both technically and in gameplay this could be an easy solution. You'll know that the spell being cast is an offensive spell before it is being cast and will be able to prepare with it.
Second concern (gameplay): Why do you think it would be right if you could dodge most of spells at all? Ever heard about dodging magic missile? First lvl spell is clearly homing one. Why not the others? Btw, there are spells in D&D that could be dodged and require ranged touch attack to land a hit. And they are clearly balanced with that in mind (Melph's acid arrow for example).It is self-rewarding when you manage to dodge that difficult ability. Blitzcrank in League of Legends, he has a powerful hook ability (he throws a hook forward, and if he grabs you he'll pull you too him where all his friends are standing). It is so rewarding to be able to dodge that ability, then counter-attack whilst this ability is on Cooldown. That's really the only reason why dodging is awesome.
Likewise there is a character called Vayne who can tumble (in League of Legends) and whilst doing so becomes "invisible" and you can't damage her, a Magic Missile being shot at her and she does the "tumble" thing right when it is needed to negate all the damage would be an awful lot of cool as well. With the Pause, however, dodging might be very easy.
How do you make the AI using the same dodging techniques as you can without making encounters tedious or way too challenging? Same thing with Disconnecting from the spell, how does the enemy use it?
-
I don't know to be honest haven't experienced it myself, but from reading comments and looking it up it seems that this necromancer will follow you around (it seems to be a bug/glitch thing, might be a part of design as well.. I read something that you have to take down this guy in some special way because he respawns even if you kill him).
I also pulled the bear example out of my butt. I'm not informed about how far the average grizzly bear would pursue
Probably like this (I edited in "grizzly" and did the S thing over average in the quote). Though, this is Hollywood:
Most bears (animals) are rather docile, shy, and friendly (towards us, they can be pretty nervous around us as well, which is totally legit considering how we treat many other species), but like all primitive animals if you tick them off or go too close to their cubs they are going to be mean.
-
I'm hoping for lots of skill shots, and skill dodging. I'm hoping I will be able to pause and put up a barrier or a "root" that blocks the passage and obstructs the incoming fireball. Hence why Magic Missile is important (because it curves around obstacles like that). Perhaps even wash the fireball spell away mid-air with a tsunami spell, or even cast a tornado spell that catches the fireball in mid-air and dependent on a dice roll it'll either continue (and go towards the enemies) or backlash and you'll have a fire tornado coming at you. I'm hoping for "Directed" spells as well (no skill shots, click on enemy and the spell will be homing in on the enemy).
I would also love to be able to run away from slow moving spells:
-
I disagree with you about case (a). I believe that bears -- and most other creatures -- defending their lairs or homes would not normally pursue you once they've chased you off, if for no other reason than that it would leave their lair undefended against the next band of murder hobos that comes along.
And even if they don't run away I wouldn't like to see something like this :S (important imo)
