Matthew Rorie Posted December 9, 2009 Posted December 9, 2009 Check it! Sorry it took so long to get this one up; I had a little vacay-shun in between the last one and this one. This time around, we have our Audio Producer, Mikey Dowling, tell us all about the process of taking a script and making it into an interactive cinematic sequence. Enjoy! Matthew Rorie
WILL THE ALMIGHTY Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 (edited) Holy crap! Edited December 10, 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!"
Matthew Rorie Posted December 10, 2009 Author Posted December 10, 2009 Holy crap! Yeah, and that's just one conversation! If you guys have any questions about the blog, feel free to post here and I'll poke Alvin and Mikey to respond to you guys. Matthew Rorie
Oner Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 Nice post as usual, keep 'em coming. Sooo... which one is the headslam option?

WILL THE ALMIGHTY Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 I love how these conversations look so much more complicated than Mass Effect's. "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!"
Pidesco Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 Right at the start, in the upper left part of the flowchart, there are what seem to be pairs of dialogue options that lead to one reply, each. What's the difference in outcome between these options? "My hovercraft is full of eels!" - Hungarian touristI 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.
WILL THE ALMIGHTY Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 (edited) I'm betting a small boost to influence/whatever other number they use for relations with NPCs at best, otherwise something it might be story related, like getting an advantage for later levels that they don't display on that dialogue tree. It's not like they can reveal the story now. Edited December 10, 2009 by WILL THE ALMIGHTY "Alright, I've been thinking.

Trenitay Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 That looks cool and complicated. How many conversations are there? Hey now, my mother is huge and don't you forget it. The drunk can't even get off the couch to make herself a vodka drenched sandwich. Octopus suck.
Raithe Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 Hm, more funky goodness... "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."
kirottu Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 Holy crap! I think that This post is not to be enjoyed, discussed, or referenced on company time.
Meshugger Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 Holy crap! I think that "Some men see things as they are and say why?""I dream things that never were and say why not?"- George Bernard Shaw"Hope in reality is the worst of all evils because it prolongs the torments of man."- Friedrich Nietzsche "The amount of energy necessary to refute bull**** is an order of magnitude bigger than to produce it." - Some guy
Bos_hybrid Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 Nice post as usual, keep 'em coming. Sooo... which one is the headslam option? No, the better question is: Which one is the bang her option?
Starwars Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 Good stuff. Listen to my home-made recordings (some original songs, some not): http://www.youtube.c...low=grid&view=0

Trenitay Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 That would change nothing for me. I'm still going to want a banging option. Hey now, my mother is huge and don't you forget it. The drunk can't even get off the couch to make herself a vodka drenched sandwich. Octopus suck.
Pop Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 Also here is a video, which, while it doesn't tell us anything new, has a few new little clips from the game, far as I can tell. Unless I'm not remembering when they released footage of the teenager girl. Join me, and we shall make Production Beards a reality!
Oner Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 I must be really bored and desperate for entertainment, this video was like water to the thirsty man.

Sannom Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 (edited) Wow, those animators are just... awful. EDIT: That mute chick is hot. Are you talking about the people making the animation for the game at Obsidian or about the two idiots in the video? Edited December 11, 2009 by Sannom
WILL THE ALMIGHTY Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 In the video of course. "Alright, I've been thinking.

Morgoth Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 Were those people in the video supposed to be funny or what? Rain makes everything better.
Pidesco Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 They might not be funny, but the lady was kinda cute. "My hovercraft is full of eels!" - Hungarian touristI 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.
Morgoth Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 She also had a voice like a man. Pidesco finds ladies with low voices cute I wonder? Rain makes everything better.
