Morgoth Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 Risen 2 new screenshots. Looks like Fable 3. Rain makes everything better.
C2B Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 (edited) Feargus on PS:T 2 So what does this mean for the chances of a sequel to the adored PC RPG, Planescape: Torment? Urquhart was surprisingly candid: “I remember right after finishing Planescape: Torment I spoke to Chris Avellone [Obsidian creative director] and asked what he wanted to do, and he was like, ‘I don’t wanna do a sequel!’ We haven’t talked about it in ten years, but it might be different now. But a lot of revisiting old games is about saying, ‘okay, that worked in 1999, what would work now?’ And how would you do it again?” “It would have to be done right, otherwise the fans of the original would be pissed off” But while it’s not entirely off the table, Urquhart does have concerns that would have to be addressed: “We’d have to think a lot about it, because it would have to be done right, otherwise the fans of the original would be pissed off and new people wouldn’t get it. That would be terrible.” http://pc-mmo.nowgamer.com/news/5797/obsid...-torment-return Its also a six page interview. So can anyone get it when its out? Edited May 12, 2011 by C2B
entrerix Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 i think planescape as a setting should be revisited with a quality game. but a direct sequel to torment is a bad idea imo. leave it alone, its a classic. 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.
HoonDing Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 (edited) What's funny is that the "eternal" Blood War has officially ended in FR after Asmodeus owned Azuth and became a god. The baatezu won. Edited May 12, 2011 by virumor The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.
Tale Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 i think planescape as a setting should be revisited with a quality game. but a direct sequel to torment is a bad idea imo. leave it alone, its a classic. Either would be fine. The first was about a serial amnesiac. The reset button practically writes itself! "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
Sannom Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 What's funny is that the "eternal" Blood War has officially ended in FR after Asmodeus owned Azuth and became a god. The baatezu won. That's Neeshka's grandfather side, correct ?

entrerix Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 the FR jumped the shark when 4e was released. you hear that 4e? you just got owned. 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.
Tale Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 Blood War was stupid, anyway. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."

No PS:T2... just no. A separate game in the planescape universe is something that could work, but really... I don't want to see some Oblivion-esque type of game, even if it has nice writing. Edited May 12, 2011 by Lexx "only when you no-life you can exist forever, because what does not live cannot die."
entrerix Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 Blood War was stupid, anyway. no YOU are stupid, blood war was great background stuff. in my games you better believe its still going on, and will for all eternity. (insult was for humor purposes only - not a real insult) 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.
Tale Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 Your FACE is great for background stuff. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
entrerix Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 Your FACE is great for background stuff. hell yeah now that's what im talkin about! 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.

I don't want to see some Oblivion-esque type of game, even if it has nice writing. Why in the world would it end up as Oblivion-esque type of stuff? Did I miss something and Bethesda got the D&D license? Edited May 12, 2011 by C2B

Did I miss something and Bethesda got the D&D license? cause there is now a big market for those games Killing is kind of like playin' a basketball game.

Tale Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 (edited) I fail to see how it's a big market when only one developer/publisher is doing it with any frequency. Get back to me when EA, Activision, or Ubisoft is capitalizing on it. Edited May 12, 2011 by Tale "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."

Lexx Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 (edited) I fail to see how it's a big market when only one developer/publisher is doing it with any frequency. Well, then let's call it action-esque permanent-shootery-hack and slay type of game. Edited May 12, 2011 by Lexx "only when you no-life you can exist forever, because what does not live cannot die."
Tale Posted May 12, 2011 Posted May 12, 2011 (edited) http://www.americanmcgee.com/2011/05/12/ne...-amr-and-alice/ EA is bundling Madness Returns with a remaster of the original on EA store for the PC. Finding it on the actual EA store doesn't describe the original as a remaster. And even the console versions come with a digital download of the original if purchased through EA store.

HoonDing Posted May 13, 2011 Posted May 13, 2011 Actually, tieflings are supposed to have demon blood, and cambions devil blood. Asmodeus is a devil. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.
