He must have really high standards for women.

That or he's gay.

It's not that the chick is ugly or something. Pretty sure it's someone's type (not mine). That's beside the point tho. She's not what I'd imagine if you said "sexy, sparky romantic heroine". She'd be great as a cold, spoiled, slightly sadistic princess :D

Everything is possible with the power of the make up, son(and graphical effects in this case).

But anyway. I see absolutely nothing wrong with that chick. It's a perfect sample of a healty, attractive female. If Vavra bangs better women than that on a regular basis, I'd very much enjoy hanging out with him when I visit Prague someday.

While we're waiting for the next update...

Vavra is a very...direct dude, not just in his political, Sargon-of-Akkad style views but generally. His Facebook comments are hilarious. For example right now they're doing auditions for actors and actresses and this is what he writes:

We're looking for a pretty young chick for the game, the problem is we can't agree on what is "pretty". This one for instance. Is she pretty? Is she a good pick for the role of a sexy, romantic heroine? Do you find her attractive? Because I don't. To me this photo looks like a mugshot of Angelina Jolie after being arrested for going nuts on crack and beating someone with a sledghammer."

Lol.
Do I assume right that they are doing auditions for voiceovers? What does it matter if she is pretty or not? Or do they modell them put them into the game as characters?

she's like a 4/10 in countries with actually attractive women

if you legit don't regularly see women much better looking women while walking down the street then you have to live in some third-world shithole and you should seriously reconsider your life

I can' t quite wrap my head around the logic here. You will enjoy hanging with him because he bangs better women than that on a regular basis, meaning... you want to hire him for a porn shooting? You will absorb his experience through proximity? You want sloppy seconds?

Just looks like a prettier version of Mount & Blade. Not sure what this has to offer over that game.

- very realistic (every square inch of landscape is based on photographs of the real locations)

Well, don't forget that the landmass is also compressed to make it more gamey.

I fear that the game will end up with the exact same feeling of aimless blandness that so dominated Oblivion. I hope it won't.

Nah, he just wants to look at the girls and imagine their mugshots.

So he can take me to the places where he can find those women, and maybe introduce me to them?

There's a big difference between seeing better looking women than that regularly and banging them on a regular basis.

"Hurr, let me here your old bro Vavra be your guide to find hot chicks, lad. Them hotties be our secret national treasure, we keep those clean and polished WHITE, ripe for picking to your heart's content but hidden, chained to the walls in the Deep Basements where no invader hoards can find them. Now go forth and make your days match the number beauties you can find and let no hoe from the surface world treat you like the privileged dick you are, Durr"

Not hot chicks, just the ones he bangs that are much better looking than that one in the pic.

If it's easy for him, I'm sure I'm gonna do alright.

It's not for voiceovers, just for "head models" (no idea what's the proper term). Vavra is actually recruiting through Facebook, saying anyone can apply. Candidates only have to be able to make a few grimaces pretty much.

Actually Eastern Europe is full of hot chicks, unlike West most are still not into Starbucks, McDonalds and getting drunk every day.. all the things that make you fat and ugly. Also genes are better.

I remember some half-swording demonstration. In some sort of pen arena or some shit. Might be mistaken though.

So does anyone who follows this game more closely than I do know if the combat system will include half-swording techniques?

Don't expect anything deeper than a few kewl moves for the cool effect. Half-swording-blending-into-grappling kind of close range techniques are very unlikely.

found it:

At around minute 9. The opponent uses half-swording attacking with the pommel. Didn't watch the rest but there's probably more demonstrations in the video.

This fucking game man, I might have to actually go and get a new rig just to be able to play this.

I'm running the beta ok with my ancient Radeon 7950. It's a relativelly old Cryengine, unless you're playing on your trusty 80386 you should be able to sail smoothly on medium details (the beta is far from optimized btw, just fyi).

How "complete" is the beta as of yet? Is there any content or just a hiking simulator?

I almost bought this game some time ago but changed my mind when I read someone saying all you do is run around on horseback killing things, except there's nothing to kill.
