Flouride Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 Still no Collector's Edition in Finland... Wrong topic? Haha, yes Hate the living, love the dead.
Oblarg Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 All I've gathered from the articles that have been released so far is that DA2 will be worse than DA:O. Seeing as DA:O was pretty bad to begin with, I'm not too excited. I think I'll pass on this one.

Seeing as DA:O was pretty bad to begin with, I'm not too excited. I think I'll pass on this one. If you thought DA:O was bad to begin with, why would there even be a possibility of you liking DA2? Same company, same team working on it ... I mean, I would have figured it wouldn't even need saying that you'd pass on the sequel to a game you didn't think was good to begin with.

Volourn Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 Yeah. no doubt. He'll probably buy DA2 anwyays and trash it just because. I like those type of internetz people. DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.
Purkake Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 It would be much more economic to continue trashing it without buying it...
Starwars Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 If only there were more people like you on the Internet Volly. It might actually be a decent place. Listen to my home-made recordings (some original songs, some not): http://www.youtube.c...low=grid&view=0

But it gave him the opportunity for a dramatic [exit stage left]!! You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep. Have I ever said that? Reapercussions
Monte Carlo Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 Yeah. no doubt. He'll probably buy DA2 anwyays and trash it just because. I like those type of internetz people. I just decided, inspired by Tigranes, that I could save myself forty quid by playing IWD instead. And have more fun.
Wrath of Dagon Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 A sequel can easily be better than the original, it's just a question of whether one has any confidence left in Bioware at all. "Moral indignation is a standard strategy for endowing the idiot with dignity." Marshall McLuhan
Morgoth Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 People were complaining about Bio's "decline" before ME2 and DAO came out, and what happened? Everybody played it and liked it. Rain makes everything better.
Purkake Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 I have confidence that they will continue to iterate on the existing formulas. Having unrealistic expectations won't help anyone, Bioware is not going to spontaneously decide to do a hardcore PC-only Baldur's Gate 3.
Wrath of Dagon Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 Confidence would be they'd try to make a quality game, has nothing to do with hardcore. People were complaining about Bio's "decline" before ME2 and DAO came out, and what happened? Everybody played it and liked it. Not everybody, I didn't like DAO and never got ME2 (the demo was awful btw). "Moral indignation is a standard strategy for endowing the idiot with dignity." Marshall McLuhan
Thorton_AP Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 Yeah but you don't think that KOTOR has Fedex quests
Purkake Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 (edited) Quality and personal opinions are two quite different things. Bioware aren't making games for you, they're making them for a large group of people who enjoyed the previous ones. I'd cut my losses and look for other companies' games at this point. Edited August 23, 2010 by Purkake
entrerix Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 i think bioware is on a huge incline not decline... neverwinter nights and jade empire kinda sucked, kotor was pretty good, mass effect was pretty good, dragon age was very good, and mass effect 2 was great, of course, when you put baldurs gate in the mix then biowares quality looks like a roller coaster ride... which means we're headed for another dip... so by my awesome math dragon age 2 and mass effect 3 will suck bioware is now on a huge decline!! (see what i did, i did it good) 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.
Monte Carlo Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 Bioware's pedigree is impressive, even I will admit that. But it is Starbucks. It will have it's Starbucks moment, and if it is clever enough it will ride it out.
Raithe Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 Well someone else is working on a new iteration of Neverwinter (using the 4th edition DnD ruleset) but as a co-op online thing rather then either a single-player or as an mmo... but I forgot where I saw the news article and interview on it right at the moment.. "Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."

May I direct you to the appropriate thread, good sir?
Tale Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 People were complaining about Bio's "decline" before ME2 and DAO came out, and what happened? Everybody played it and liked it. To be fair, those were the first two games I've particularly liked since Throne of Bhaal. KOTOR was good, too. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
sorophx Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 I liked Hordes of Underdark. it was short and had that Planescape: Torment vibe to it. oh and you had the option not to fight the final boss, gets brownie points Walsingham said: I was struggling to understand ths until I noticed you are from Finland. And having been educated solely by mkreku in this respect I am convinced that Finland essentially IS the wh40k universe.
Wrath of Dagon Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 Yeah but you don't think that KOTOR has Fedex quests Name some then. Quality and personal opinions are two quite different things. Bioware aren't making games for you, they're making them for a large group of people who enjoyed the previous ones. I'd cut my losses and look for other companies' games at this point. All value judgments are subjective, my opinion is that Bio games have tremendously declined in quality. I have cut my losses and not planning to buy any more Bio games. But yes, I'm still going to post in this thread whenever I feel like it. "Moral indignation is a standard strategy for endowing the idiot with dignity." Marshall McLuhan
Purkake Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 No need to make threats, I'm sure you're going to post in all sorts of threads in the years to come.
entrerix Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 oh snap i forgot about hordes of underdark, that game was actually pretty good. WAY better than vanilla NwN 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.
