Mr. Teatime Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 I'm hoping that Obsidian will have the balls to make a PC only CRPG with Chris Avellone flexing those same muscles that he used to make PS:T.

Volourn Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 No, the world doesn't *need* any game. That is just blatantly untrue. Another PST game would be nice; but is most certainly not needed.

Mr. Teatime Posted February 8, 2004 Author Share Posted February 8, 2004 No, the world doesn't *need* any game. That is just blatantly untrue. Another PST game would be nice; but is most certainly not needed. I guess you don't like PS:T in the way I do, then. Need is always relative. We don't need food. Only if our goal is to live do we need food. We don't need to avoid having our limbs sawn off - only if our goal is to keep limbs in tact. We don't need money, only if we want to buy things. Do we need art? Do we 'need' Shakespeare? That's a debate I'm not going to get into, but for my definition of 'need', in the same way we need the best contemporary art be it music, literature, or whatever, I *need* a game that is as fantastic as PS:T, and not another ****ing bioware NWN expansion.

Judge Hades Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 I prefer a more open CRPG experience than soething so closed as PS:T. It was a good game but it had many many many weaknesses. I prefer a game that has the solid story like PS:T but as open in character creation and exploration as Fallout 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volourn Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 Teatime: I don't like *any* game in the way you do. No game is needed and that includes NWN. Games are not *needed8. They are wante. Neither you or I will perish (and neitehr does the world0 if our favorite games weren't made; or another one is made in their spirit. That is silly fanatical talk.

Morgoth Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 I'm hoping that Obsidian will have the balls to make a PC only CRPG with Chris Avellone flexing those same muscles that he used to make PS:T. Please. The world needs games like that. Set up a paypal donation fund and I'll pay you money to make such a game. If you really have THAT money, do yourself and the world a favor and spend it for the really serious problems on this harsh world. So I must agree with Volo, games like PS:T are surely welcome, but not absolutely necessary. Rain makes everything better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldnt fund the game but I'd certainly pay at least double the normal price of a game to get a product nearing PS:T's quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadowstrider Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 This notion that games need to be on either, console, or PC is getting tedious, and old. Simply because previous console games have been unlike games you might like, doesn't mean they can't be done. I actually disagree with your requests, more out of personal bias, because I hate requests that are "I want this, screw everyone else." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exitium Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 They're all good choices. I think that if the game turns out to be KOTOR2, they'll probably enjoy the support of Jeremy Soule who also did the score for KOTOR. Exitium RPG Codex - the premier avant garde gaming news site.

Aeon Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 i honestly don't care if they make a PC only RPG or a console RPG. the two genre's are becoming increasingly similar. it looks like even japanese RPGs are starting to take some ques from western ones. the best musical directors in the indutrsy are the guy from Rareware, Martin O'Donnell (Bungie), and Jesper Kyd (Hitman 1 & 2). IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO Yeah, I'd also vote for Jesper Kyd. I thought the music in Hitman 2 was the best I had ever heard. Although I also loved the music in Max Payne 2..

Simply because previous console games have been unlike games you might like, doesn't mean they can't be done. I actually disagree with your requests, more out of personal bias, because I hate requests that are "I want this, screw everyone else." Exactly. All you can ask for is that they do their best making a good game. Just because consoles so far don't cut it for you doesn't mean it's an inherant property. If they can show consoles how you'd prefer all the better. In that reguard I think KOTOR showed others some possibilities out there. Spreading beauty with my katana.

Please. The world needs games like that. Set up a paypal donation fund and I'll pay you money to make such a game. I agree. When you make something or multiple platforms you have to make it friendly for each platform. And the biggest problem with this is player input. Dumbing things down for a controller can prevent all sorts of keyboard options, and make things sloppy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeon Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 i don't think that putting an RPG (or any game really) on PC and a console is too bad, as long as the controlls are corrected for both platforms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definately. IF they can do that, then I don't care how it's released. Just don't screw the PC crowd, granted I play consoles and PC games... I just prefer the PC format because of the interface.
