GameBanshee preview and interview

[Starwars]

Sorry, I heard the cries of the Obsidian forums in the wind and I got here as fast as I could. Alas... I was not fast enough!

[Sannom]

Doesn't inspire a lot of confidence and it's just the last of a string of bad news. Still holding high hopes for the game, but I fear this will be Alpha Protocol: the Fantasy Hack'n'Slash version. Prove me wrong, Obsidz, pretty please. Just this time, prove me wrong.

 

Optimistic version : the higher up realized that releasing the game so close to The Witcher 2 was not a good idea.

Pessimistic version : the game is a bug mess.

[Starwars]

I doubt that the Witcher 2 has much of an effect on this, it being a PC only title and Square-enix being a console-focused company. I guess that there will just be additional polishing.

Hunted: the Demon's Forge comes out on May 31st. Isn't that a co-op hack 'n slash as well?

I don't think hack 'n slash commonly have cover systems.

Uh? Hunted has a cover system, similar to GoW or Mass Effect. Or is it news for you?

More likely they didn't want to go against L.A Noire and The Witcher 2 etc. June isn't that bad with competion.

[Labadal]

A shame, but this gives me time to finish The Witcher 2.

Has DSIII been a "recipe for disaster" since it was announced last year, hasn't it?

They're gonna release a new character trailer today though right? Unless the schedule changed with the delay.

Uh? I don't see any update on the site. Am I missing something?

 

As for the character trailer, who knows at this point? I certainly hope they still release it, but they may have decided to shuffle the marketing strategy with the delay. A little more exposure wouldn't hurt...

Other Sites have posted it. Apparently they set a time stamp for the information to be posted.

No new character vignette. Good way to raise the anticipation for the game.

Making the steam announcement strongly again may yield more results since 3 Games for 1 is a pretty good deal. So this week got somewhat covered.

Steam pre-order is up

The offical way to play online is down anyway. They may just be refering to that.

There's still LAN/Co-op though, right? It's likely just that they wanted to specify that the servers are offline, because I can't possibly imagine a reason to cut features from DSI/DSII for the pre-order, it just wouldn't make sense. It does sound very lulzy though.

This has been known for a long time already.

Well having Dungeon Siege 1 could allow one to play one of the best cRPG mod/game to grace us in decades, Lazarus and the Ultima 6 Project. Though no one knows if the STEAM version will work with it yet.....

[C2B]

Can anyone who preordered tell us whats now up with DS1+2? Is the multiplayer code completly away or.....?
