Bazy Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 More of that please. Super interesting. Also did we lose all hope of a the Arcanum playthrough?
Sensuki Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 I enjoyed the leads video too And apparently not. There's a good article on that here: http://www.rpgcodex.net/forums/index.php?threads/chris-avellone-tells-the-codex-about-his-current-work-on-pillars-of-eternity.96561/

Bull. An Arcanum LP would definitely improve PoE:s quality, simply by tutoring the developers in what quality is and should be. 2
Starwars Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 Arcanum is one of my favorite games but there isn't much that PoE would stand to learn from it in my opinion unless you were to completely redesign the game into something more similar. Anyways, would certainly like to see more of the meeting videos. I also found it interesting. 1 Listen to my home-made recordings (some original songs, some not): http://www.youtube.c...low=grid&view=0
Abel Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 Interesting, it must be. Unfortunately, hard to understand even a tiny bit of what is said here. And yeah, Arcanum is great, even if far from flawless. Would be a great idea to craft an Arcanum II someday
Havelok Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 I am sure we will get a lot more "in-house" time with the camera once the Making-Of documentary is released. 1
Adam Brennecke Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 What else would you like to see? What did you like? What didn't you understand? I can make more of these, but they do take me down for a few hours to edit them. The documentary should have plenty of discussions like this. 5 Follow me on twitter - @adam_brennecke
Freshock Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 I would love to see a video (maybe a series?) following a member of the PoE Team during one day - but I understand that would take a lot of time. 1 My YouTube
Sensuki Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 (edited) It would be cool to see another development meeting either before the next patch, just to get an idea of some of the stuff being worked on OR after the next patch - to see the aftermath of the first wave of feedback/bug reports.I understood everything (but then again I know more than I'm supposed to - I know what "The Heralds" are, and recognized all the area names, etc ).

Havelok Posted February 20, 2015 Posted February 20, 2015 I can make more of these, but they do take me down for a few hours to edit them. Don't you guys have interns? . If I lived near the studio I would totally copy edit causally shot cellphone footage for free.

Bazy Posted February 20, 2015 Author Posted February 20, 2015 (edited) More of the same. No need for the editing/effects/explanations. Just cut the video when needed. Save the starwipes for the documentary. Or just get some interns. Edited February 20, 2015 by Bazy

"God. Damn. It." ... "Sigh. Dammit." ... condensed into a 20-sec clip, mostly as you look at the monitor, forum on-screen, with your face buried in your palms. No but seriously though, that sounds awesome. livin' the dream 1

You could always do an Office Space-esque spoof of everyone trying to get their stuff done, and people walking around bugging people about putting the new cover sheets on their bug reports. Maybe someone engineers a virus to take all the rounded fractions of a percent of damage from the game and store them up on a flash drive to become over-powered. 1 Should we not start with some Ipelagos, or at least some Greater Ipelagos, before tackling a named Arch Ipelago? 6_u

ManifestedISO Posted February 22, 2015 Posted February 22, 2015 Watched that for the first time. Super-interesting is right. I'm guessing hand-sanitizer from Target center-table. The engaging part was the sociology ... how a room-full of people with a common goal act and react to one another ... looking down, looking up, doodling quietly, quelling questions, calming qualms, assuaging fears, clicking pens. Fascinating. All Stop. On Screen.

Oh, come now... don't ruin his cam-do attitude. 6_u Really, though, I suspect that, right now, a helmet-cam of the office would just look like Starship Troopers. Just a small team of people blasting away at bugs before time runs out.

I can make more of these, but they do take me down for a few hours to edit them. The documentary should have plenty of discussions like this. Don't know if the "What didn't you understand?" was a reaction to me saying i didn't understand a bit of what was said in this video, but i feel it's no harm to explain briefly why i said that. Actually, the only reason why i didn't understand 80% of this video, is because of this US accent, and english language . English is really hard for french people. You guy produce such alien sounds with your mouth lol (how is this even possible to speak like "that"?). For me, as a french guy, and with Russian, English may be the hardest language to speak/understand when spoken. That's all i meant here. In comparison, Spanish or Japanese are wayyyyy easier, particularly Japanese (which i love), since it sounds "quite" alike french (saying "Daijobu" is far easier for me than saying "I'm ok"). Well, i guess i'm off topic now :D.
Leferd Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 I don't think Adam was referring to you. I think it was more of a general rhetorical regarding whether if their discussion was too esoteric or technical for the layperson outside of the game development community.

So, the general question about the interstanding of it makes more sense now. 1
