karka Posted April 23, 2006 Posted April 23, 2006 (edited) The words people and persons are not used in exactly the same way. People is by far the commoner and is used in most ordinary contexts: a group of people; several thousand people have been rehoused. Persons, on the other hand, tends now to be restricted to official or formal contexts, as in this vehicle is authorized to carry twenty persons. I really suck at English.

BicycleOfDeath Posted April 23, 2006 Posted April 23, 2006 True. If he doesn't like the game and wishes to judge it's purchase on inaccurate information*, that's fine by me. It's not going to effect my enjoyment of it. *According to Mr. Sawyer. Stand Your Convictions and You Will Walk Alone.

Hassat Hunter Posted April 23, 2006 Posted April 23, 2006 (edited) as much as many thinks the nwn oc sucked, the nwn oc is the primary reason nwn sold over 2 million copies. is not like Gromnir were a fan of the nwn oc, though it weren't as terrible as some suggest... it were still pretty disappointing. in any event, and we feels the need to repeat this yet again, nwn sold +2 million copies and over 90% of purchasers never used any mp features or the toolset. 2 million copies sold is not a failure.... no matter how bad some thinks the oc sucked. How many copies did Black&White sell. How many of these where due to the name Peter Molyneux? How many gamers where dissapointed? I know alot of people who own Black&White, yet NONE like the game a bit... No, Atari. We can not blame the great Obsidian. Brainwash detected. Possible cure: 100 hours of Daikatana. That will fix "grandeur issues" or so I heard... When I buy a game I buy it based on what the developer puts into it, not mods. I didn't buy BG for Dark Side of the Sword Coast, I didn't buy Neverwinter Nights for Dreamcatcher, and I am not going to buy Neverwinter Nights 2 for any mod. Agreed. If there is NOTHING in the game from the devs what makes me buy the game, only the community created stuff why give out $50 to those Devs? Rather wait till the price dropped; there is a clear list of "good mods (help seperate the crap from the *must play*" and the issues in the game are fixed then... EDIT: Oh noes... fast filled 10 pages. Wouldn't it be time to lock it and open part II and fill that one in 1 hour too?

Darque Posted April 23, 2006 Posted April 23, 2006 What about games patched at release i.e. v1.1 gets shipped? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'd still wait a week just to see some first impressions. Bulock or Chapman said that there

Gromnir Posted April 23, 2006 Posted April 23, 2006 (edited) In any case 20 hours is short for a CRPG. People are saying that shorter games are the norm now and I agree, but that doesn't mean that the norm doesn't suck. Bottomline the question we have here is a 20 hour CRPG worth $50? In my opinion it is not. Especially if that game is going to follow the same route of leveling as its predecessor where people were reaching max level a good time before the game 's end. 20 levels in 20 hours is stupid, plain and simple. There is no excuse for it. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'll be waiting regardless... I never get a game until after the first patch is released... well excluding console games of course. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> good for you. makes you a more enlightened consumer than most. as for GD and his question 'bout whether we believe the bio numbers that put the non-oc applications at something less than 10%... am not sure, but we wonders why the biowarians would undervalue their sp download numbers. how would that benefit bioware? "How many copies did Black&White sell. How many of these where due to the name Peter Molyneux? How many gamers where dissapointed? I know alot of people who own Black&White, yet NONE like the game a bit..." b&w did not sell over 2 million copies... and regardless, you and others keep ignoring the succesful expansions that nwn spawned. if nwn were as hated as you thinks, then why were the expansions good sellers?

Hassat Hunter Posted April 23, 2006 Posted April 23, 2006 That is good, it means it should be near bugless on release. 25 doesn't really looks like alot to me.

HA! Good Fun! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Does not matter. There is no way for them to track it. Maybe less than 10% bought premuim mods but the sites that hosted user made modules\haks had no affilitaion with Bioware and therefore there is no way to know what percentage of gamers made use of custom made content. The CEP alone had more than a million downloads. It is an untrackable metric and whoever said it was whistling in the wind.
