melkathi Posted May 13 Posted May 13 At this rate their next release will be Elder Scrolls IX Remastered, because why not just skip ahead to where the money is? Unobtrusively informing you about my new ebook (which you should feel free to read and shower with praise).
Gorgon Posted May 13 Posted May 13 I remember how bad the Oblivion NPCs were, not the least bit nostalgic. It's an odd thing, this remaster craze where you faithfully recreate 30 year old bugs and technological shortcomings. Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.

Bethesda games are a great practical example of how good actors cannot spin crap dialogue into gold. To be fair to the people doing the remake, Bethesda faithfully recreate 320 year old bugs into their new games as well thanks to still using Gamebryo with renderer++. 1
HoonDing Posted May 14 Posted May 14 It isn't about the game, it's about being an echo of a much better time. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.
melkathi Posted May 16 Posted May 16 copy pasting: Starting May 19, Warhammer 40K: Armageddon, Sanctus Reach, and their DLCs will no longer be available for purchase on Valve's platform. However, according to announcements posted on Steam, you'll still be able to purchase them on GOG in their complete DRM-free versions, even after the delisting.

Given all that, it might seem a bit odd that Patel would want to make the move from one to the other, and for now we're left to speculate: Netflix has the resources to put a lot of money on the table to attract big-name talent, sure, but it's just as likely that Patel simply wants to get creative with a smaller team. Patel herself hasn't said any more about her reasons for making the move or what she'll be getting up to at Night School, and Netflix confirmed that Patel has joined Night School as a game director but declined to comment further.

melkathi Posted Thursday at 07:30 PM Posted Thursday at 07:30 PM The irony: We are remastering the original game but won't change things because we don't want to fix something that isn't broken - they say after making two sequels that changed everything that wasn't broken.

Shame! All the best to Carrie and thank you for her work at Obsidian. Sagani was one of my favourites of PoE1 cast (and that's a pretty stacked companion cast).
