Arkan Posted November 11, 2009 Posted November 11, 2009 ...but what happened to the Alien game? "Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger." - Herman Goering at the Nuremberg trials "I have also been slowly coming to the realisation that knowledge and happiness are not necessarily coincident, and quite often mutually exclusive" - meta
Deadly_Nightshade Posted November 11, 2009 Posted November 11, 2009 It got put of perpetual hold - id est it got canceled without them calling it canceled. "Geez. It's like we lost some sort of bet and ended up saddled with a bunch of terrible new posters on this forum." -Hurlshot

entrerix Posted November 11, 2009 Posted November 11, 2009 a dark sun rpg would be FANTASTIC Killing is kind of like playin' a basketball game. I am there. and the other player is there. and it's just the two of us. and I put the other player's body in my van. and I am the winner. - Nice Pete.
Volourn Posted November 11, 2009 Posted November 11, 2009 It be alright, but the setting itself is overrated. Ooo.. a desert. Big deal. DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.
entrerix Posted November 11, 2009 Posted November 11, 2009 It be alright, but the setting itself is overrated. Ooo.. a desert. Big deal. lol! you can make anything cool sound lame when you say it like that! Killing is kind of like playin' a basketball game.

Volourn Posted November 11, 2009 Posted November 11, 2009 Yeah, seriosuly, I like Dark Sun. It's a solid setting. I'm just pre countering those who will come rushing in to claim how awesome DS is simply because water is 'rare'. Big deal. DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.
Musopticon? Posted November 11, 2009 Posted November 11, 2009 Yes, because the rarity of water is exactly the reason people vow for DS. 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
Volourn Posted November 12, 2009 Posted November 12, 2009 Actually, it is for a LOT of people. I've heard the argument that DS is so hardcore because water is so rare. L0LZ DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.

Hurlshort Posted November 12, 2009 Posted November 12, 2009 There was a Spelljammer game back in the day that was just awesome.

Raithe Posted November 12, 2009 Posted November 12, 2009 hmm.. actually... yes.. I still have the Spelljammer box with the old 3.5inch discs stashed away in a wardrobe.. Dark Sun.. good yes, but the thing that worries me if that is the game.. it'll be the computerised version of DnD 4th Edition... which just.. I shudder at the thought. I'd say Dark Sun was the hardcore because the mix of: a> rarity of water / metal b> a sensible reason for why the cities had overpowerful mages (who also happened to be overpowered psionics, worshipped as gods, and with legions of fanatical followers) c> any other arcane types having to keep their magic secret or be killed in a variety of painful manners.. (which also made spell research awkward) and the whole they pushed that you had to pay attention to spell components... (which a lot of d&d campaigns tended to let slide unless it was expensive/rare components) d> it was one of the few official settings that really encouraged high fatality for the players... "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."
WILL THE ALMIGHTY Posted November 12, 2009 Posted November 12, 2009 (edited) More steampunk. Please, I beg you. EDIT: Or something Lovecraftian, that would be great. Edited November 12, 2009 by WILL THE ALMIGHTY "Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons. I'm going to to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!"
Jaesun Posted November 12, 2009 Posted November 12, 2009 A World Of Darkness game would be awesome! After they finish the Star Trek RPG of course. Some of my Youtube Classic Roland MT-32 Video Game Music videos | My Music | My Photography
Tigranes Posted November 12, 2009 Posted November 12, 2009 Didn't we have this thread before...? I'm actually hunkering most for either a school/academy setting (Bully) or a Byzantine one - opulence, religion, political intrigue, but without the technology slant of steampunk, the all too familiar Victorian setting, or fantasy and apocalypse (Age of Decadence). Just seems like we've seen a lot of steampunk-ish stuff lately, anyway (though not an outright proper steampunk game). Let's Play: Icewind Dale Ironman (Complete) Let's Play: Icewind Dale II Ironman (Complete) Let's Play: Divinity II (Complete) Let's Play: Baldur's Gate Trilogy Ironman - BG1 (Complete) Let's Play: Baldur's Gate Trilogy Ironman - BG2 (In Progress)
Humanoid Posted November 12, 2009 Posted November 12, 2009 Buy, steal or otherwise gain the Darklands rights. No elves, no dwarves, no magic. Failing that at least copy the character creation as close as possible. L I E S T R O N GL I V E W R O N G
