GhoulishVisage Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 (edited) Here are the pictures of the two new sceneries and the two companion/npc pics for those who just want to see the goods.I think I missed a concept art somewhere though. Avellone's talk was also pretty interesting, but there was also a lot of stuff that was retreads of what he's already said.Edit: to save space and for those who might not want to see the companion pics before the game comes out.

lolaldanee Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 the black female is looking pretty interesting and unique overall the whole presentation just is pure gold, I've seen dedicated comedians do worse as far as entertainment value goes Chris is awesome at doing this kind of stuff, even if there has been little new information in the presentation for us well informed guys of course 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhoulishVisage Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 the black female is looking pretty interesting and unique I agree, I love that one. She's possibly an air-element Godlike, judging by the feathers. The companion portraits are Kaz's work, I believe. When in doubt, blame the elves.

Though the high collar, plate armour and her being black would also speak for Vailian. Maybe sort of both? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bartimaeus Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Thanks for posting! Audience seems a little tepid so far, but I always like listening to him speak. Quote How I have existed fills me with horror. For I have failed in everything - spelling, arithmetic, riding, tennis, golf; dancing, singing, acting; wife, mistress, whore, friend. Even cooking. And I do not excuse myself with the usual escape of 'not trying'. I tried with all my heart. In my dreams, I am not crippled. In my dreams, I dance.

SunBroSolaire Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Man, I want to play this game so bad. Those character portraits are so awesome! And the landscapes look amazing as well. I just want to go adventuring with those characters. At least we get a gameplay video soon, it's gonna be a long painful wait for the release.

SunBroSolaire Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Just read that Kaz Aruga did both those portraits, so huge props Kaz. Glad you're on the project 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PK htiw klaw eriF Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 What I like about the portraits is that they look closer to actual portraits than what was featured in the BG series. 1 "Akiva Goldsman and Alex Kurtzman run the 21st century version of MK ULTRA." - majestic "you're a damned filthy lying robot and you deserve to die and burn in hell." - Bartimaeus "Without individual thinking you can't notice the plot holes." - InsaneCommander "Just feed off the suffering of gamers." - Malcador "You are calling my taste crap." -Hurlshort "thankfully it seems like the creators like Hungary less this time around." - Sarex "Don't forget the wakame, dumbass" -Keyrock "Are you trolling or just being inadvertently nonsensical?' -Pidesco "we have already been forced to admit you are at least human" - uuuhhii "I refuse to buy from non-woke businesses" - HoonDing "feral camels are now considered a pest" - Gorth "Melkathi is known to be an overly critical grumpy person" - Melkathi "Oddly enough Sanderson was a lot more direct despite being a Mormon" - Zoraptor "I found it greatly disturbing to scroll through my cartoon's halfing selection of genitalias." - Wormerine "I love cheese despite the pain and carnage." - ShadySands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prometheus Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 (edited) I like the portraits. Though the high collar, plate armour and her being black would also speak for Vailian. Maybe sort of both? Race/ethniticity and culture are different things in P:E. So you can be a vailian and a pale elf. Godlikes have different parent races and types. She could be a vailian air godlike with the parent race ocean human. Edited November 14, 2013 by Prometheus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrimeJunta Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Those portraits are without question the best work I've seen in any cRPG. Beats even Icewind Dale. If I ever want to commission a portrait, I'll call you first, Kaz! 1 I have a project. It's a tabletop RPG. It's free. It's a work in progress.

Sensuki Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 (edited) Personally I don't think they *beat* Icewind Dale. They are more detailed and a different style. I still very much appreciate the IWD designs. What he has done is taken the BG1 style to the next level.

Airbrush a go go. These are more painterly and naturalistic at the same time, which is a tough act to pull off. Great expressions too, with lots of personality. 1 I have a project.

These are quite similar to what we had in BG, but much, much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sensuki Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 (edited) A couple of the BG1 portraits are really good - such as the Edwin one. But there are some less good ones as well. Btw that black chick is a godlike I'm 95% sure - look at her jawline - clearly peacøck style feathers are part of her face.

Karranthain Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Well, since we've already seen them - how about releasing high-res versions of these portaits, eh Obsidian? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
