tajerio Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 (edited) Gotta love mustache boy's drawn-on mustache. Oh dear. C'mon, he looks cool. In sort of a shady porn actor-y way, but still. He does kinda look cool, but he would look a lot better if his mustache weren't drawn on with the same pencil he used for his eyeliner. Edited June 26, 2014 by tajerio 3

Gromnir Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 there is a dorian thread at bsn, but it appears that it very quickly turned into a gay-romance thread, so we kinda lost interest in reading further than page five of 240+.

Orogun01 Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 What would a fake France be without a stereotypical fake French man; from now I dub Dorian sir LePew. I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"* *If you can't tell, it's you.
Humanoid Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 Bethesda games have constantly massively outsold bioware games. Better to follow their mass market appeal. Besides NV already showed they do it better anyway. Despite the pro-romance equals more sales crowd likes to claim, romances have not caused bioware games to sell more or nail the mass market. No no, it just goes to show that the, erm, "physical" side of romance (via mods) sell far better than the emotional side of it. 1 L I E S T R O N GL I V E W R O N G
Barothmuk Posted June 26, 2014 Posted June 26, 2014 Damn, all these new characters. They're so... so... Bioware. They're like a mean parody of Bioware characters.

AGX-17 Posted June 27, 2014 Posted June 27, 2014 (edited) RPgs will better off without those losers. I don't mind romances (because they tend to add solid C&C and hot babes)Bold emphasis my own for reasons that should be clear given the following: You know 99.999% of humanity now considers you one of "those losers" thanks to that statement? there is a dorian thread at bsn, but it appears that it very quickly turned into a gay-romance thread, so we kinda lost interest in reading further than page five of 240+. HA! Good Fun! A gay romance thread? On BSN? About a douche with a fauxhawk? NO. ****ING. WAY. Lesson to be learned: Don't be a ****ing ****, get a real mohawk or just carry a sign saying "I will gladly take anything up the ass you have on offer." Edited June 27, 2014 by AGX-17

Nepenthe Posted June 27, 2014 Posted June 27, 2014 Damn, all these new characters. They're so... so... Bioware. They're like a mean parody of Bioware characters. Yeah, I had to do a double take at this guy. I'm going to have to change my expectations to something like a fantasy version of the original batman series, apparently. You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep. Have I ever said that? Reapercussions
Meshugger Posted June 27, 2014 Posted June 27, 2014 Just to point out the level of ridiculousness about that character's description and design, we can start by looking at this guy: See him? Notice his dignified, but yet slightly arrogant composure? That guy sure looks like stuck up nobleman, living in his secluded ivory tower all while he fails to notice that the world around him has moved on. Well, let me introduce you to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marquis_de_Sade this is a guy that were too revolutionary for the french revolution, this is the guy how amassed massive orgies while writing literature, this the guy who had sex with 14 year old girls in his 60's, all while practicing sodomy with his male servants just balance things out. Where do you think the very words 'Sadist' and 'Sadism' comes from? Still, all while this guy who was debouchary incarnate, manages to give a more solemn and serene impression in his portrait than a caricature french guy of a fake France. 2 "Some men see things as they are and say why?""I dream things that never were and say why not?"- George Bernard Shaw"Hope in reality is the worst of all evils because it prolongs the torments of man."- Friedrich Nietzsche "The amount of energy necessary to refute bull**** is an order of magnitude bigger than to produce it." - Some guy

Serrano Posted June 27, 2014 Posted June 27, 2014 With any luck it's just the quotes that are bad. I mean Mass Effect 2, Dragon Age Origins and Dragon Age 2 all had less than perfect marketing campaigns. It's usually the gameplay interviews with the devs that show off what is good about Bioware titles and a trailer or two to get people excited. The "Awesome Button", hard rock music video, that video interview where someone was talking about cannibal Hawke ect are all par for the course.

Bos_hybrid Posted June 27, 2014 Posted June 27, 2014 Despite the pro-romance equals more sales crowd likes to claim, romances have not caused bioware games to sell more or nail the mass market. Can you provide some links to support that because I don't believe it. Romance is one of main reasons that a large segment of Bioware fans support there games. But I can't say its the only reason because many people would still buy there games if Romance was excluded. I guess you would have to do a poll where you have 4 factors and you ask people to rate them in order of significance around what is the most important consideration when they buy an RPG? Romance would obviously be one of the four Romance is a niche Bruce, not a mass market draw.

You don't know that though. Sure, he looks a bit silly in that picture but he may have good lines and a good voice actor. He may actually look okay when you're playing and he may have some great armour. He could be based on the old fashioned gentleman archetype rather than the smug rogue who annoys people rather than amuses and the picture may not reflect that. We don't know very much about what he or the pirate will actually be like until we see them in-game. Edited June 27, 2014 by Serrano 1
