YES - gather your party

 

[Ninjerk]

Everyone losing their minds over gathering party sound.

 

[Branm]

stronghold again??? zzzzzzz

 

[Ninjerk]

They are mic'ed very poorly.

 

[AN4RCHID]

That cave environment looks great. Character models are showing up much better against the backgrounds now too.

 

[Seari]

Characters can't die in scripted interactions. fucking sucks

 

[Ninjerk]

Ninjerkfl: wouldn't it be better if the camera was behind the characters like dragon age

 

[Sensuki]

Much better gameplay demo - it was also good to involve the others - Tim, Brandon etc talking

 

[Ninjerk]

Tim Cain looks bored.

 

[Sensuki]

LOL@first question HAHA

 

[Branm]

AI = patch / expansion....Awesome??....

 

[Duraframe300]

[Duraframe300]

Sawyer recommends BGII

Roguey

 

[Ninjerk]

Josh recommended BG2 and vaguely insulted 2nd edition

 

[polo]

So Patrick Rothfuss is in the game, awesome!

 

[Athelas]

Jesus, that guy sounds like he's about to burst into tears.

 

[Ninjerk]

"...so like can u have a necromancer"

 

[Sensuki]

Looks like the non-moving reticles and weapon set/quick item slot bugs have been fixed. Also liked the change to stance in the inventory. Need to go back and look for other changes.

 

[Roguey]

Josh's playing is truly exemplary.

He was playing on normal but that's fine.

Characters can't die in scripted interactions. fucking sucks

This isn't a Sierra adventure game.

 

[Starwars]

Questions were disappointing unfortunately.

The stuff they showed off in-game looked fucking awesome. I cannot wait to get my grubby hands on this goddamn game. Nice to get a quick look at the stronghold stuff and the companions sounded pretty fun.

 

[Abu Antar]

Yeah, the showing was great but the questions were really bad this time around. They were better the last time.

 

[Sensuki]

Josh's playing is truly exemplary.

Is it? He was hitting himself with his own spells and not using any active abilities - might be ok for normal but that's really suboptimal playing overall. That said, it was fine for the demonstration because someone actually trying would have beaten those fights in half the time. Combat is really fast.

 

[Infinitron]

So, Roguey, did you notice Josh recommending Baldur's Gate 2 as the ideal introduction to the Infinity Engine games, and talking about Divinity and Wasteland 2 as inspirations but not Shadowrun

 

[Infinitron]

Oh my, whose hat could this be?
