I finished the demo earlier today and its a pretty good length if you do all the side quests. Seeming to go up to and through the first main boss. Gamepley wise the main difference I saw was the ability to spend 5 stat points per level up over 4 stats. Oh yeah, found a weapon that upgraded itself after 25 kills so that was an interesting mechanic. Also there are socketable weapons and armor. It feels very familiar but I would call "much better in many ways" a stretch. I know some of you guys like being able to build a retarded mage or a weakling tank so that may have some appeal.
I d/l the demo last night and played up to the first quest turn in. Seems alright although the graphics arent my cup of tea. Didnt really notice it being any different from other games of this genre but I intend to play to the end of the demo so maybe that will change.
Those scores you see at the end of each match were simple D6 rolls. She would first roll to see who won and then craft the story around the result. Always amazed me how good her imagination is. All we did was come up with our characters concept and she ran with it from there.
The game has already been funded and will be made. Those of you that are uncomfortable pledging money before knowing if this or that will be included can always wait until the game is released, see if it has what you want, and then buy a retail copy.
Im curious about whats the issue with the above version of "boobplate". Female breasts extend out from the body (some more than others) and would require an accommodating suit of plate mail to fit properly, no? Or is the general consensus that regardless of breast size, all plate mail should be flat and just pancake the breasts?
So in your opinion, the game that explicitly states to be the spiritual successor to BG, IWD and PS:T is backed by people that have no idea what that means?
But nukes were always a weapon of last resort, you cant use them first without everyone else nuking the hell out of you. I believe it was in the US doctrine to use nukes as a last resort if / when the Soviets overran the Fulda Gap.
I want high level magic working up to god slaying levels by the end of the story / series. I dont care about finding a magic sword in a barrel but I do like encouters like in BG2 where you can stumble across a random room and loe-and-behold theres a Litch in there or a hard battle that yields the Staff of the Magi.
Some of the forum names are not correct I think. We'll have to fix that on the next update.
Its not me editing the individual poster titles. They are probably just copying whatever you give me to update so be sure its correct.
