  1. How about them BG3 rumours?

    I can understand the argument that, if gameplay is the major factor, then the game should be called something else. In fact, though, I just don't see why it's a major issue to the consumer. Of course they want to use the BG name to sell more games. That's the point. On the other hand, I just...

  2. How about them BG3 rumours?

    I agree with Monte, but I'd like to go farther. The Bhalspawn story wasn't what made Baldur's Gate such a great series. The series sported an okay story. It had decent graphics. It had more or less well done dialogue with a few bright and dim spots. It about as good a representation of...

  3. Company News Interplay update

    At the risk of sounding embittered, I'll spit on Interplay's corpse when it finally goes under.

  4. Game News Bethesda goes FOBOS on Fallout 3 discussion

    Hahahahaha It's the ol' fightin' fire with fire method. Hey, sounds like the plans good ol' Interplay had. After all, we should write off the community and come out swinging. I mean, come on! You have to be kidding! Try to work with the community who would be the best resource for...

  5. Community Bethesda developer on the FO fans reaction

    Yep, that's all I saw. Still, they join you and shoot at bad guys and get in trouble and slow you down and.... ugh. I hated them so much I stopped taking quests that resulted in anyone joining me.

  6. Community Bethesda developer on the FO fans reaction

    I loved the little pup. I hated keeping him alive. ...And, make no mistake, after the mid-game it was all about keeping Dogmeat alive. I would have kept him in my party every time if he weren't such a pain in the ass to keep alive and barking. I'd like to have a joinable NPC cat. Yes, it...

  7. Community Bethesda developer on the FO fans reaction

    okay, Tri, quit being a jackass. I kept every NPC I had the game alive every time I played. How? reloads, mostly. It was an RPG, and I just didn't stomach seeing my friends bite it. Whether you think it's a cheesy way to play or not, that's the long and short of it. Futhermore, I often...

  8. Community Bethesda developer on the FO fans reaction

    Fair enough, Arcadian. And I will vote with my wallet on Fallout 3. As for party control, a bit off topic, I'm like Alanc9. I prefer party control, but I've enjoyed a lot of ai controlled games. I think NWN is one of the reasons I'm leery of it.

  9. Community Bethesda developer on the FO fans reaction

    Personally, I didn't have any problem with the bulk of your post, Arcadian. I just cringe when someone says, "it's just a game." Of course it's a game! If it were a basket weaving sample, I wouldn't care about it. I'm a gamer. I talk about games. As far as giving Bethesda a chance and...

  10. Community Bethesda developer on the FO fans reaction

    So, my question is, Arcadian, what is it that's important enough to inspire a strong reaction? What is the benchmark and do you always follow it? "It's just a game." Sure it is, but gaming is my hobby. I'm not one of the people flaming over at Bethesda right now. I'm probably never going...

  11. Community Bethesda developer on the FO fans reaction

    I used to think that bad publicity didn't exist. However, when FO:BoS was nearing completion, management at Interplay was concerned about the Fallout Community. I don't believe for a second that anyone wants the Fallout community to come out in force against them. On the other hand, it seems...

  12. Company News Interplay just... won't... give... up!

    I'll have to see the game in its box, take it home, install it on my system, play, and finish it before I believe Interplay might be telling the truth.

  13. Development Info ToEE patch in QA

    I'm looking forward to see what modding project Co8 starts. Better yet, maybe they'll finish a large mod and we can extend our gaming experience. ...And I have no doubt that Co8 can't have worse writing than the writing Troika put into ToEE anyhow.

  14. Development Info ToEE patch in QA

    Anyhow, all the other crap aside, I found out here first and it was definitely news to me. Again, thanks for the heads up.

  15. Development Info ToEE patch in QA

    Great news. I've been running the Co8 patch and it's worked quite well. Still, I'm looking forward to the official patch also. *tips his hat at Exitium* Great job on that Co8 patch, though.
