October 25, 200619 yr Once NWN2 is out is Obsidian contemplating an Apocalyptic style game? Anything on the lines of FO or Wasteland? Edited October 25, 200619 yr by Maximous
October 25, 200619 yr I'll be happy if it's apocalyptically good. "My hovercraft is full of eels!" - Hungarian tourist I am Dan Quayle of the Romans. I want to tattoo a map of the Netherlands on my nether lands. Heja Sverige!! Everyone should cuffawkle more. The wrench is your friend.
October 25, 200619 yr Technically Fallout and Wasteland are POST-Apocalyptic. Instead of doing that vein of CRPG a true Apocalyptic game would be cool. You can be a character experiencing the apocalypse as it happens and the point is that you and a few stragglers are trying to find ways of surviving it. It oculd be the basis of a good trilogy. The first game leads to the apocalypse, the second is the apocalypse, with the third is the post apocalypse which your character now finds him or herself in.

Walsingham- "Sand - always rushing around, stirring up apathy." Joseph Bulock - "Another headache, courtesy of Sand"
October 25, 200619 yr Apocalyptic can also mean just a looming sense of foreboding and the feeling of all deteriorating and going to hell. Or the exact opposite. For example, Alpha Centauri was pretty apocalyptic, finding a new purpose for teh human race, attaining new being and perhaps even godhood. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears. I had to fight against blood thirsty wolves and rabid penguins to get my food. Those who were too weak to survive were sent to Sweden. It has made me the man I am today. A man who craves furry hentai. So let us go and embrace the rustling smells of unseen worlds

OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
October 26, 200619 yr HL2 is an excellent example. The world hasn't gone to hell yet, but will pretty soon do. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears.

October 26, 200619 yr Kind of like the Half-Lives but in a CRPG.

October 26, 200619 yr I read a book recently called Swan Song. It started out showing brief glimpses into the lives of the main characters, then, nuclear apocalypse. It then showed the initial struggle of these main characters to survive in this new world, with some of the remnants of government or various organizations trying to help the survivors and such, and new organizations rising up. Then it skips ahead a few years to show the results of all that and to eventually reach the climax and the hope for the future. It was a pretty good book. Death was one of the main characters. The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.

Then he killed a priest and took over his body and stabbed people with his cross. He was super evil. The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.
