Preview An Authentic Account of an Embassy from the RPG Codex to Larian Studios

[Zep Zepo]

I'm down for day 0 (alpha) co-op if anyone else is in the Alpha (assuming the alpha has that feature).

Zep--

 

[evdk]

Dude, this is INCLINE.

Oh, it's mostly my butthurt at being to busy and chickenshit to play with other people, thus being reduced to impotently seething at other people having fun

 

[Aldebaran]

Dragon Commander too? It's not that I expected anything great from this title (when I was looking at the demos), but the least thing I expect in a game controlling flying dragons is gay marriages...


"Hey we have this cool feature built in with naked boys doing it with each other, don't you like it? It enriches gameplay so much and we only had to remove some useless combat and tactical skills instead. Love and Peace everyone!"

The halls of Brohalla will forever be open to Gragt, but the name of wretched theSavant shall be stricken from the book. He shall be condemned to live out eternity in the Swamps of Decline and the muck shall cement his neck to the ground. May the rats-who-died-in-basement-quests forever bite out his eyes.

Seriously imagine Andharia, Liberal, Hiver and Nomask playing the game together....

Liberal plays games? Seriously?

 

[Clockwork Knight]

Argument system + building kit + Codex multiplayer...hmmm.

"Ugh, another quest to kill giant rats? Let's go"


"What's wrong, Liberal? I thought Source Hunters were supposed to be charitable. I say we stay and help the old lady. [Influence: sucess]"


"FFS"

 

[Arkeus]

 

[Haba]

With some nice loverslab and romance mods, this will be glorious LP material. The Warp, it's song... is calling to me

Seriously imagine Andharia, Liberal, Hiver and Nomask playing the game together....

I'd rather not.

 

[evdk]

NO.

 

[Haba]

OH YES

 

[Ninja Destroyer]

If every of the 6 players can talk privately to another, making secret alliances it will be very interesting. "The hammer of power is mine!", "No it isn't, we are all equal in the team", "FFS, someone has to take it", "Brb, must feed my cat",

 

[evdk]

OH YES

I am Lot in that picture.

The Divinity franchise is the kid, Haba is the hairy apelike monstrosity.

Just use steam chat + mumble/teamspeak/ventrilo

 

[Clockwork Knight]

I've always liked how that kid (and others, according to the text) is nuked alongside the evil people. Fuck you I'm God and I'll use a giant laser cannon to kill everyone at once, because I can.

The kid had sex before marriage, man. Salvation is only for the pure of heart, sinners need not apply.

There is also Lot's wife who spent a virtuous life in Sodom, resisting the many temptations of the place for decades, only to be turned into a salt statue for just one tiny peek over her shoulder. That said the Eternal is probably not as bad as we think, and instead this was probably a friendly gesture on His part to remind Lot that in his haste he had forgotten to take salt for the hardboiled eggs he packed in his picnic basket.

 

[Mastermind]

Dammit Larian, why make your elves a bunch of whiny hippie pussies too? Isn't Dragon Age and Witcher enough? How much dick can elf asshole take before it ruptures beyond repair?

 

[King Crispy]

Ask Legolas.

 

[Roguey]

Constitution is NEVER a dump stat unless you're a filthy savescummer.

There's no reason at all to put points into vitality in Divinity 2 and if you do so you're gimping yourself. Health increases on level-up and through enchanted equipment, anything not being put into the damage stats is a waste.

Try to imagine a dwarven society of whiny hippie pussies. Or lizardmen. Or undead. Or imps. Or...

Yeah. Someone has to be the free-loving hippie, but unless there are fairy people in the setting, then the elves have to be it.

No race fit that role in Morrowind. Morrowind is also the best RPG ever made. I'm sure the two are related.

The only possible saving grace here is that Larian's more likely to just mock everything than preach, but I'd still like to get back to the days when RPGs weren't trying to stay relevant to the issues we face today™.

 

[Zeriel]

Speaking of co-op. I was asking during the livestream earlier. Apparently the modules made with the toolset will allow up to 6 people in co-op.

Kodex dungeonkrawl, anyone?

Genuinely good turn-based combat with full party control and a comprehensive developer kit is like a dream come true. It's NWN, except the gameplay isn't shit. Which is basically Nirvana. If we can edit spells/abilities too, this is going to be beyond amazing.

Yeah, it'll be the very definition of incline:

Dicksmoker's Crushing Fist
Lesser Hormone Therapy
Greater Dickstorm
Summon Greater Faggot
Phelot's Watermelonification
Jaesun's Hack and Slash
Crispy's Lesser Pedophilia
Hiver's Rage
Azrael's Wall of Text
HHR's counter-vaccine
Draco's Browing Fist
Infinitron's Brofist Absorption
Asperger Cloud
Roguey's Remote Sight
Librulification
Dick Blade of Dicksaster
Avellone's Swinging Cock
Avellone's Dickjunction
Andhaira's Horrid Dicking
