Don't mind me, just playing a great remaster.
Also, I managed to solve the paper pyramid puzzle for the first time. It was rather easy, though, it's just that apparently I never paid attention to what the paper was actually saying.
Lastly: Planescape: Torment has the most satisfying experience sounds ever created.

hmm

Can you tell me exactly, because I am really curious, what is the difference between the original and the EE?

Redone UI, zoom-scroll (these two are well worth the money alone IMO), TAB-highlighting, among others. Personally the first two are all I care about, the third is a nice bonus, and everything else is nice to have.

The high resolution and thus zoom-out of those EE pics compared to the original kind of take away from the game's charm somewhat imo. If only they'd remade the sprites instead in a higher resolution, but that would have meant actual work and loads of it...

Some people are dissapointed with Beamdog's marketing strategy regarding PS:T t-shirts [link] and it got me thinking: is there a good Lady of Pain t-shirt?

Nope, looks too lowres and the glowing is meh.

Hmm, minimalistic but it is non-recognizable (looks more like some redskin).

Rather good minimalistic pic suitable for printing.

Beamdog's variant, more details but still somewhat minimalistic.

Looking through the LoP artwork, I couldn't find anything else suitable for a print. So I went an' made one.

Yeah, it is not some top-notch art, but at least it brings us closer to having something (also, yeah, the face, I know, you're welcome to fix it +M). I might get back to it and fix everything I find wrong with it, but not in the near future.
P.S. Based on original PS:T wallpaper

EDIT: fixed image hosting fuckery, though I shouldn't have

Meh, that Bumdog t-shirt looks better from afar. It's just some vector crap when you look closely. I also saw in one of the streams that it has their logo on the back. Instant boner-killer and stopped me from wanting the t-shirt anymore.

Also yours looks like cheap clipart. Sorry.

I'd prefer one with a 3D render rather than some vector junk. Vector graphics are really not suitable for the Planescape tone.

That for example, on a black t-shirt. Fucking metal, dude!

Jeez, what are you, a peasant? You don't wear collector's t-shirts anymore than you open collector's boxes.

Fucking unbelievable! :rpgcodex:

The only thing annoying me is the text. The size of the proper text, even at the maximum, is not enough, and the size of the window is not very good either. They could've made the use of space better. Or did it semi customizable as they did with baldurs gate and icewind dale. For a game that is so focused on the text, It will be hard to play it all in that way, but maybe it is because i am used to play the modded version for so long. I still prefer the good old modded version over this.
