May 3, 200619 yr I don't thikn that Jade Empire would work well on the PC in the way the gameplay was set up for the X Box. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It would work perfectly for the pc. Hades was the life of the party. RIP You'll be missed.
May 3, 200619 yr It would work perfectly for the pc. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You would either need some serious changes or a gamepad. I have to agree with Volourn. Bioware is pretty much dead now. Deals like this kills development studios. 478327[/snapback]
May 3, 200619 yr Author Which is what Bio seems to be going for (unless it's all LIES). In any case, I've played enough, erm... console games with my keyboard. (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it)
May 3, 200619 yr Indeed it would. On the bright side if they do make a PC version there would be no longer any reason for me to keep my X Box.

May 3, 200619 yr I can see the conversion process taking about a year so it probably depends when they have started or will start, if ever.
May 3, 200619 yr You are blind. There are multiple interviews where BIO stated that JE on PC was a possibility. They *never* said it would *never* happen. Stop making stuff up. Wanting to stop a billion threads whining about them 'betraying' their PC fans or why there's no JE for PC is not the same as saying 100% no chance for JE on PC. Stop making stuff up. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> YOU'RE saying Im making stuff up.. IM saying Im beign creative. Thats your problem, you're always so thinking in negatives.

If there is no clear indication, asume the post is written in jest. This notification is meant very seriously and its purpouse is to avoid misunderstandings and the consequences thereof. Furthermore; I can not be held accountable for anything I write on these forums since the idea of taking serious responsability for my unserious actions, is an oxymoron in itself.

May 3, 200619 yr I can see the conversion process taking about a year so it probably depends when they have started or will start, if ever. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Graphics definately need an upgrade. They are not bad, but poor by the new standards. I have to agree with Volourn. Bioware is pretty much dead now. Deals like this kills development studios. 478327[/snapback]
May 3, 200619 yr Graphically, if they can up it to Oblivion or to NWN 2 level, and add in a pure PC UI and configuration, along with 10 to 15 hours of extra play time, then it would be a worthy addition to my PC gaming library.
May 3, 200619 yr "YOU'RE saying Im making stuff up.. IM saying Im beign creative. Thats your problem, you're always so thinking in negatives" You win just for this. :D DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.
May 3, 200619 yr Weh? Other than a "first post!", there's no source or link. How credible is this really?

Don't get your hopes up. I wouldn't care if they didn't upgrade the graphics at personally.
May 4, 200619 yr Neither would I but seeing graphics made for a TV screen doesn't look all that great on a computer monitor. They would need to fully PC-lize the game. JE with HDR, Bloom, and AA... *drool*
May 4, 200619 yr Well, AA can be enabled from your graphics card alone. I care more about playing the game than the graphics personally. It'd be nice, but not necessary. The only thing I'd like to see would be higher resolutions.
May 4, 200619 yr I doubt I would buy it even if it was released on PC - the idea of buying a console port quasi-RPG in a mish-mash oriental setting with last-generation graphics hardly rocks my socks off.
May 4, 200619 yr I hope they make Jade Empire Lost Chapters ala Lionhead. :D This post is not to be enjoyed, discussed, or referenced on company time.
May 4, 200619 yr and add in a pure PC UI and configuration <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You'd be lucky to get anything other than adding mouse support to the console interface and having them call it a "full reworking of the interface for the PC version" like they did with Knights of the Old Republic.

May 4, 200619 yr I find that somewhet misleading. I's that an actual quote? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yes. 3. What will be the main differences between the Xbox and PC version of the game? A: The biggest difference will be in the interface design. We are fully reworking the interface for the PC version of the game to take complete advantage of the keyboard and mouse. Also, we will of course take advantage of the different video cards on the PC, as well as supporting different resolutions.
May 4, 200619 yr Different videocards as in you aren't totally buggered if you have an Nvidia card. ROFL. RIP
