No it doesn't. 3D has now surpassed 2D by a great deal. Please stop this nostalgia bs.

 

Not really. Neither technology is superior only the artistic capabilities of the developers are what counts.

 

Planescape Torment had high quality artwork which looks nice with widescreen patches. Dragon Age for example - doesn't. It looks randomly generated 90% of the time. Its between passable and ugly.

 

So nothing has been "surpassed" because the essential quality - design - is a constant not dependent on technology but on talent. And its either good or bad.

Asking that in a thread about Good Old Games?

It's a novel on wheels.

 

Ug, thats what Im afraid of. Ill probably buy it "just to have it", and see what all the hubbub was about from you guys.

There are still people here who haven't played Torment? It's compulsory playing material, heathen!

 

As I said, I played them all. I want something new and fresh instead. Any recommendations, dear Obsidian comrades?

Knock yourself out.

 

EDIT: Would be nice if they added NOLF next...

They should add Drakan: Order of the Flame & Tomb Raider: the Last Revelation + Chronicles. My discs are scratched.

 

Also, Rune & Heavy Metal FAKK 2. Those games are a ********* to run on Vista.

This is nice and all, but my original copy from 10 years ago is still going strong.

my copy from 10 years ago works just fine, but doesnt it have a disc check? i'd pay 10$ just to get rid of that so i dont have to lug discs around with my laptop if i wanted some torment or bg on the go

What about, one of the best games ever?

 

Oh, thats definately the vibe I get from almost everyone. Its just that certain comments weigh more, like Gromnir calling it "navel gazing", which is the worst possible reading for me.
