G3N13 Posted February 7, 2004 Share Posted February 7, 2004 Well...console games ~ crappy games as the controls do limit the complexity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KC-Tang Posted February 7, 2004 Share Posted February 7, 2004 Thanks for stating the obvious. I do hope they have some good beta testers / Q-teams to point that out (hint hint :D) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Teatime Posted February 7, 2004 Share Posted February 7, 2004 What I take offense to is console games that are ported to the PC. They suck at least 10 times as much as they did on the console as a result, regardless of base game quality. Recent example: the Xbox game DE2 (which Ion Storm still won't admit isn't great.... which gives me nightmares about thief 3, or 'thief deadly shadows' as the drones at eidos are calling it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Annah Posted February 7, 2004 Share Posted February 7, 2004 Hmm ... I think this thread looks like "Pc Rpgs Are Dying Or Dead" from "Gaming and RPG Discussion". So speak there about games made first on consoles and then "moved" to PC and how bad they are. So don't try cheating with making a lot of posts heh "We all live under the same sky ... but none of us have the same horizon" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawl Posted February 7, 2004 Share Posted February 7, 2004 Yeah I really hope that Obsidian will make good games but I also think that the games will be good as the company has so many good developers and so on. And writers. So I really wait for the games they will do. As I can believe that they will be nice RPG's for pc. PC RPG's haven't died and want be if it's up to me. okey thats it. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volourn Posted February 7, 2004 Share Posted February 7, 2004 Let's allow them to make their first game at last before we start the hangings... DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exitium Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 This one's a given, Axel. I'm pretty sure the Obsidian boys have the very same thought on their minds.

Megatron Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 I think every developer does. But sometimes money/deadlines get in the way. But yeah. Try not too add dumb romances, one type of gameplay, a comedy sidekick, datapads/journals, rats or a console port and it could be good >* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Rei Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 Doubt Obsidian will ever make a crappy games... well i'm sure they wont make anything thats a huge pile a s**t. maybe a few but i'm also sure they'll soon be known to create some of the best games ever. hmm.. eh.

Phoenix Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 The current project by Obsidian is their first game, they surely want to make it as good as possible, since they need to establish themselves as respectable new game company. Also, if they scew up the project, they also screwing Bioware... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Megatron Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 Yeah. Judging from deus ex 2, the crappy video, title and general BAD VIBES I think it'll be bad. Why haven't they released any screenshots yet but managed to finish a rendered movie. >* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Volourn Posted February 8, 2004 Share Posted February 8, 2004 Phoenix: I doubt BIo would be screwed as they already basically threw one of their small time co dveelopers in the trash can when it was apparant they failed to meet BIo's standards. SOU was supposed to be done by another company; but BIO landed up taking over and the other company got credit for animations, spell effects, and the cutscenes. LMAO BIO don't fool around.

Exitium Posted February 9, 2004 Share Posted February 9, 2004 Does that change the fact that they wasted millions during the development and eventually came up with a half-assed toolset and not a game like everybody was hoping for?
