MasterPrudent Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 (edited) And it is the E3 stuff so there you go. EDIT: "Oh my God, just knock them down Brandon! It's a slaughter!" I love that the wildlife isn't ****ing around. Also they really do appear to have nailed the IE "feels". That cursor! The green slime! The way the characters have their little acknowledgement barks when you move them! Edited July 24, 2014 by MasterPrudent 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gfted1 Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Four weapons sets? Interesting considering there are only three weapon damage types (slash, crush, pierce)? "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hiro Protagonist II Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 (edited) The areas looks like BG. The inventory, character creation and dialogue box has an IWD feel to it. One minute It feels like BG and then it feels like IWD and then back to BG. It's like the two games have been blended into one.

Valorian Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 It's nice and pretty. I watched the character creation process (not many attribute points to distribute, though I suppose you could garner some by lowering attributes from 10 to . Then I summoned my immense resolve and stopped watching in an attempt to preserve the surprise factor. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WotanAnubis Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 So you pick your basic background during character creation and then get to flesh it out more as you're playing? Sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darji Posted July 24, 2014 Author Share Posted July 24, 2014 Oh look it is even the E3 build . Was that so hard dear Obsidian to show this to actual people who backed the game or waiting to get it released? I am pretty sure this will get now a lot of buzz and you have chosen the right people with Giant Bomb as well^^ As for the footage: It looks great, The dialogues system, the choices the writing was nice from the bits I have seen at least. The environments and over world look great as well. The character customization looks really in depth and with the background stuff I really hope the dialogue chances a lot as well. I am pretty excited about almost everything. Except one thing. After playing Divinity I am so sad that this is not turn based combat. The overall feel of the combat looks really fast and even kind of speed up in the Demo but I really have to play it for myself to be sure of it. That is really the only bummer I have with the shown presentation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArtB Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 (edited) Oh my God. It looks fantastic. Not gonna lie, I think I've just gone into full fanboy mode. I'm super-excited about the background options at character generation. It might not be very important, but I love stuff like that. Yummy.

Karkarov Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 I believe I noticed some skeletons with swords in the corners of that UI.... like something a user mock up once did hohohohoho...Great work by Josh on the video, and thank god it was Brad and Matt. I forget Rorie had worked there before so he was an obvious great choice for the video. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valorian Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Four weapons sets? Really? I thought the base is 2. Maybe the character raised the number with talents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stun Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 (edited) Impressions/tidbits I've noticed.: Giddy I am at the "vibe" of the whole thing. Visually, it's ToEE meets Icewind Dale 2, from a first glance at least.. -animations (running/attacking) seem ripped directly from Temple of elemental evil. -I noticed the ability icons are borrowed from IWD2 spell icons (I saw IWD2's Executioner's Eyes, Blood Rage and Destruction icons) Again, these are all good things. But I suspect that this is going to throw me off until I get used to it lol -I like that instead of having a health bar and a stamina bar, there's just a health bar and the portrait. -Inventory is still confusing me. I saw something shared (I'm assuming that's the deep stash?) But then I saw the individual character stuff, but only like, 6 slots? So... much scrolling will have to be done, I assume? -We'll be able to turn the floating UI things into a solid stone bar like the IE games! YES.

ambrusynev Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 It looks and feels like 21st century IE game. Quite happy about the option to choose between GUIs. Ok It's time to go back and finish Throne of Bhaal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like we Cryogenically froze Sawyer, Cain and crew for the last 12 years and just thawed them out now. And here they come with the next IE/Troika game!

And I did notice the same spell icons from IWD2 which is good to see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
