Starwars Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Not gonna judge at this point but just looks-wise it looks bland as hell. I don't want to go back to the NWN style of 3d graphics for realtime w pause, urrrgh. Still, hope it'll be good. Wish it wasn't D&D but what can you do? 1 Listen to my home-made recordings (some original songs, some not): http://www.youtube.c...low=grid&view=0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoraptor Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Meh, sounds like NWN 1.5 and I loathed NWN. Will pay mild attention (primarily for potential lulz), expecting tepid at best SP and lots of dlc baiting MP emphasis. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

archangel979 Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 (edited) It seems it will have cooldowns. I don't like that. Probably only loosely based on D&D rules which means we get crap games like Neverwinter or D&D Online. Only 5 races and 6 classes.. I bet those 6 classes will not have subclasses like in D&D and will lack most abilities and spells. And they are going to sell more classes with small DLCs and milk us for all we got.

rjshae Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 I'm guessing they'll be Dwarf, Elf, Human, Halfling, and... Half-orc? What's the alternative to cooldowns? Uses per day? Meh, same diff really. "It has just been discovered that research causes cancer in rats." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigranes Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Uses per day is quite very different from cooldowns... come on, I don't need to write a paragraph on that, right? I think this is only based on D&D 5E and not fully D&D? A bit confused on that.

Meh, same diff really. Maybe like in PnP. WTF you make a D&D game and change its basics. And if cooldows are so fun, PoE is full of tho.. ups it is not! Cooldowns kill strategy and only leave tactics for combat. I can understand with these guys being DAO and ME devs decided to use cooldowns but I still don't like it in my D&D game. I at least hope character building options are going to be complex but I am afraid they are not. Edited February 13, 2015 by archangel979 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is only based on D&D 5E and not fully D&D? A bit confused on that. In the IGN interview they say it's "based" on D&D 5E so I guess they have at least some freedom here. And IIRC Baldurs Gate wasn't a "100%" implementation of D&D E3 neither. Either way, they have some "old" (pre-DA2/ME2) Bioware talent on board, so I'm mildly optimistic: Dan Tudge -> former game director and executive producer of Dragon Age: Origins Ross Gardner -> former technical director of Baldur's Gate, Dragon Age: Origins and Neverwinter Nights Jay Turner -> former author of Dragon Age: Origins and Mass Effect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjshae Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Uses per day is quite very different from cooldowns... come on, I don't need to write a paragraph on that, right? Right, but five uses per day is five charges followed by a day long cooldown, is it not? At least from a distance there's not that much difference. Breath weapons useable every N rounds? Is that not also a cooldown? Cooldowns have been around from well before computer games. So why the dislike? It's just a balance mechanic. The alternative, I suppose, are either unreliable powers, powers with a backlash, powers that rely on a limited resource, or powers too weak to be unbalancing when used every round. 2 "It has just been discovered that research causes cancer in rats."
