SadExchange Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 I did as well. I would think they'd have more popularity and advertisement if they had done the kick starter after releasing the enhanced edition but here's to hoping they do release it before the end of the kickstarted to garner more support towards the second half! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chilloutman Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 when should enhanced edition be released? tempted to get it for some reasonable price I'm the enemy, 'cause I like to think, I like to read. I'm into freedom of speech, and freedom of choice. I'm the kinda guy that likes to sit in a greasy spoon and wonder, "Gee, should I have the T-bone steak or the jumbo rack of barbecue ribs with the side-order of gravy fries?" I want high cholesterol! I wanna eat bacon, and butter, and buckets of cheese, okay?! I wanna smoke a Cuban cigar the size of Cincinnati in the non-smoking section! I wanna run naked through the street, with green Jell-O all over my body, reading Playboy magazine. Why? Because I suddenly may feel the need to, okay, pal? I've SEEN the future. Do you know what it is? It's a 47-year-old virgin sitting around in his beige pajamas, drinking a banana-broccoli shake, singing "I'm an Oscar Meyer Wiene" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SadExchange Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Recently on Twitter, it was stated as "soon" but that can be a long time in Dev time, but I would think a smart move would be to release during the kickstarter to let people see what they can do.

Gorgon Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 The character design bothered me. I know that's a relatively strange concern, but there you go. I was also kinda disinterested in the main story. I guess I prefer characterisation and interaction over a grand imposing plot you are whittling away at throughout. Grand plots always seem to disappoint, at least in CRPGs Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marelooke Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 (edited) "Reserving" a physical box, but I'm very likely to drop that down to minimum to get the game if they don't address my concerns over the Linux port. EDIT: pitch sounds bleeding great, btw. Didn't bother watching before pledging since D:OS1 was pretty sweet, so this was a pretty sure bet as far as I'm concerned. EDIT2: the Update Song is always gonna be bittersweet now Edited August 26, 2015 by marelooke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreyFox Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Backed with a little hesitation. I am curious to see how that MP/AI NPC **** is going to go down...if my bitchass NPCs just start running around and being asshats and jackwagons I'm going to be extremely pissed. The game (for me at least) should be about my character and his/her journey I don't want the NPCs to start stealing the lime light or the thunder... It's like everyone whose played PnP has played with that DM/GM who inputs his NPCs and they are god like, do all the damage, know everything, and make it totally stupid to even bother showing up to play because the DM/GMs NPCs are just going to dictate **** and run the show so why am I here? Hope it doesn't turn out like that but I could tell Bubbles and some RPGcodex guys having some similar thoughts/reservations...I unno man...this one is like either the best or worst idea/implementation ever...it could go WAY bad.

Humanoid Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 To be honest I just blind-backed it at the CE last night (it was late!) without reading any of the details, so I have no idea what most of these potential issues are about yet. Reading the Kickstarter page now. Doubt it'll make any difference because there's such huge gaps between tiers that there's no real decision to make between them.

The true nature of freedom is such, that the human mind is unable to comprehend it, so we make a cage and name it freedom in order to give a tangible meaning to what we dont understand, just as our ancestors made gods like Thor or Zeus to explain thunder. -Teknoman2- What? You thought it was a quote from some well known wise guy from the past? Stupidity leads to willful ignorance - willful ignorance leads to hope - hope leads to sex - and that is how a new generation of fools is born! We are hardcore role players... When we go to bed with a girl, we roll a D20 to see if we hit the target and a D6 to see how much penetration damage we did.

Instead of saying "Tell the guard you come from a royal family" I am used to "I am from the royal family let me in" The amount of replies/text is clearly not the point.

GreyFox Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 FWIW Swen replied to me in a PM on the kickstarter. Hi, Thanks for your question, it's a good one. We've been trying a new form of dialog for player input, and although it looks a little strange to begin with, we we've actually found that it makes it more immersive, rather than less so. If we gave your character a pre-made style of speaking, then you can only play in that one style, whereas if you have more general text, it's much easier to project yourself onto the character. It's something that we're trying out for now, and may change depending on player feedback, but for now it seems to be working well. I'm asking him about NPC AI a bit more see if he says anything.

At least I wasn't the only one who was like that. In response to my NPC AI question he just said that "game play will take precedence" I don't think he understood what I was saying about overpowering NPCs and how that can ruin the point of a main character.

Humanoid Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Considering the quality of the dialogue in the first game, I'd give a chance to the new system they're trying. Granted the happy medium is just to write *more* dialogue options, but if there's only going to be two options in a given branch for example, I'd prefer the generic and unspecific responses rather than the extremes the old system had. A big offender was the dialogue between the two player characters, it was either sickeningly saccharine sycophancy or Jerkface McJerk jerkiness. 1 L I E S T R O N GL I V E W R O N G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
