Digital Right Management. For example: If Dungeon Siege 3 will use Steamworks, you must create an online account during the installation (if you have not one account already). The game (Dungeon Siege 3) will be tied to the online account forever. Henceforward you can download the game as often as you like.
Clint Mansell is awesome. Love his scores to Requiem for a Dream and The Fountain. But it's not like Jack Wall did a terrible job with the ME1&2 score. Quite the contrary.
There will be four different heros you can choose from. Each of them will be a different archetype. And we don't know if we are forced to take the other characters as companions.
Great trailer! I got MOTB vibe.
Alvin, are those paintings at the beginning the same paintings, or at least the same style, the game will use in the cutscenes to tell the story?
Maybe with the Onyx engine and the fantasy setting Obsidian can provide a more challenging difficulty level. But Alpha Protocols AI was like the AI of every game based on the UE3 engine. Maybe some games had a more balanced difficulty setting, but not a better AI.
Maybe I'm wrong, but I think those preorder incentives are a result of the admission of resale price maintenance in the USA. This result in a shift in non-price competition. And the publishers took that over to Europe an other regions.
Either the sites are not up yet, or Marten, Odo, Jayne, Leona and Vera are not playable characters.
Oh, I see they changed the silhouette of one of the playable characters.
The timeline is sweet. Wonder what Odo's Journal will be. Oh, and the third playable character (chick with guns) we have seen on the box art is confirmed.
Edith: Pre-order incentives.
