What was in Part 1?

I'd like to know that as well but I can't find any information on it. Apparently, it doesn't exist.

Besides some non-Black Isle RPG's on the list... why put the manual in the box of a game not included in the game (collection box) and in some cases are totally not of Black Isle (Giants )?

Giants was Interplay. Maybe there's a connection?

It's worth it just for the Lionheart manual. Yippee.

I never played Lionheart. How is it? Sucky?

A Black Isle compilation without Fallout titles? Crapilation.

Maybe Bethesda will release a compilation including:

 

ES Arena

ES Daggerfall

ES Morrowind

ES Oblivion

Fallout

Fallout 2

Fallout Tactics

Fallout 3

KOTOR3

 

I thought they had already done a FO1/2 and FOT compilation.

 

LionHeart has its moments. It wasnt done by BlackIsle but by Reflexive. And if you think KOTOR II was unfinished, well your in for a real treat.

KOTOR2 was unfinished???

You mean the guessing wasn't part of the game?

 

But how could that be with Obsidian at the Helm and LucasArts at Starfleet command?

 

I'm confused. Oh wait! Is the confusion part of the game??? (w00t)

 

<_<

Lionheart is the worst Black Isle game made. It is right up there in my top 10 stinkfests.

Got that right.

What makes Lionheart so bad? Unfinished? Something else?

Well lets just say that so much effort went into the first chapter that there wasnt much left for the others.

 

Some people hated it because it used SPECIAL (in real time no less) and SPECIAL is seen as some sort of sacred Fallout thing by some.

 

Black Isle didnt actually make it either. They published it but it's made by Reflexive (guys who made SW:Away Team). Had the whole game been upto the quality of chapter I it would have been a fantastic first effort.

fallout 2 were black isle's first game development. black isle not develop fallout 'cause there were no black isle at the time.

 

HA! Good Fun!

Real time combat :D

It was very fast. But you could get used to it after a bit of practice.

There was a speed slider that can be used to slow game.

Thought that was a patch addition ?

Yes.

I wish they'd release an infinity compilation in the UK, having everything on DVDs would be nice.

Lionheart was a lot of fun for the first half of the game. Then once you think to yourself "Hrmm, this is actually pretty good, I guess Reflexive sure showed all those people who were bitching at them to make a real RPG rather than an Action RPG" then BAM next chapter hits and its 90% combat for the rest of the game.

 

Their reasoning for the first chapter being so good was that they didn't expect everyone to do all the quests in the first chapter. They figured people would do some, then come back in the 3rd to finish the rest. Meaning not only had they never made an RPG before... but they never played one either.
