Hellfell Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 (edited) I mean, who would want to keep such a horribly looking companion? Make him a young bald female monk if you want to create an original NPC companion but for the love of god take this old peasant away. Thank you. p.s. Oh, and the slippers.

Jojobobo Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 I think you're wrong Hellfell. I think the real reason people are desperate for romance in this game is Forton. Just look at that bald shiny head, those slightly rheumy eyes - I defy you to find a stronger image of raw sex appeal. 26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agelastos Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 As long as he has an interesting personality and doesn't look like Random NPC #23, I couldn't care less... 3 "We have nothing to fear but fear itself!

Osvir Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 (edited) To a start I was all against Forton, then he grew on me and I'm not sure why. There is wisdom, and concern, in his eyes. He could just be an emotionless master assassin as well *shrug* EDIT: Resolute. Edited November 12, 2012 by Osvir Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hormalakh Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 You know nothing about the character other than what he looks, and in a concept sketch at that.

Ieo Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 I posted in the original Update thread containing his concept art that I'm pleased there's an older character. And in fact, I want him to speak in fables and allegorical riddles. Possibly like a tripped out, partially stoned Yoda. 10 The KS Collector's Edition does not include the Collector's Book.

Hellfell Posted November 12, 2012 Author Share Posted November 12, 2012 (edited) One thing is an older badass, another thing is an elderly weaksause. Forton is the later. Har!

Sedrefilos Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 (edited) I have no problem with his looks (OK he doesen't look epic but i never judge anyone by their appearance).

Amentep Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 *Knock, knock* "Who's there?" "Forton" "Forton Who?" "Forton is a lot of weight!" ... Maybe you had to be there. 7 I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet?

FlintlockJazz Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 One thing is an older badass, another thing is an elderly weaksause. Forton is the later. Har! Just look at his sorry face Edair looks older as well, but he actually looks older in a 'competent, world weary' way to me. I like having older characters in games, especially as I get older myself, just not ones that look like Forton... 3 "That rabbit's dynamite!" - King Arthur, Monty Python and the Quest for the Holy Grail "Space is big, really big." - Douglas Adams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Explosion Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 It's the hair, isn't it? I agree. Here's my rendition of a better Forton (feel free to use this for the final game Obsidian) Yeah, that's much more better. 30 Pretend what I wrote was actually really witty and/or deep.

Osvir Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 (edited) You know nothing about the character other than what he looks, and in a concept sketch at that. How can you say anything at all? You can look at his picture and deduce his stance. Pictures speaks more than a thousand words. If you look at Forton, how do you imagine him being? Let's say... make up a character, personality and appearance, how would Forton and this characters relationship be? What would Forton have to say to you, based on what he looks like in the picture?

Pshaw Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 (edited) I'm ok with Forton. The idea of an elderly yet still hard as nails kung-fu master is cool to me. I'll admit that I'm not a huge fan of his concept art but that's just my personal preference in art not because he's 'ugly' or anything like that. I kind of consider him to be the Heihachi of this game he just needs to get that hair sticking straight up rather than leaving it down. Edit: I guess he'd need a bad ass mustache as well to pull of the Heihachi look. Edited November 12, 2012 by Pshaw K is for Kid, a guy or gal just like you. Don't be in such a hurry to grow up, since there's nothin' a kid can't do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wulfic Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 I dont like that a white man is a monk. He should be Asian and his name should Wei Yungshu and he should be bald with dragon and kenku tattoos all over his body. He can stay old and bald its ok but this hair just sucks.
