Bioware :9~ Trepsie where are you????? I am so buying a 360 |
I hate Bioware for selling their soul to the XBox...
|
Damn you. I was saving for a PS3 but the 360 is coming out soon and the games look great.
|
Too many hype.
Look I played Shattered Steel and so I played their first own IP game and it sucked, there was some nice details here and there but it reminds me of Jade Empire (that I also played) were they simply cannot make a setting that feels like a real world, all their success have been using other people IPs. Come on, they are trying to sell you a FPS/RPG/RTS game here ... was Republic Commando good (I dont mean fun, I mean good)? was Fallout Tactics good? Imagine a SW:RC/FO:T tactics hybrid and you end up with a pretty good idea of how this turns out ... and as a RPG company BioWare appears to be unable to come up with anything new in relation to story, I bet they will come up with their usual "romance option". |
I'm not a BioWare fan myself...
|
I read it as a FPS/RPG, not like Deus Ex, VtMB, or Hellgate: London. More like a squad based shooter, like Ghost Recon, that type of combat, but there are also upgrades, npcs, quests etc...
The RPG elements were played down in the interviews and marketing. Where as the games mentioned above, aren't really FPS games with RPG elements, because aiming and movement are not so important. I'm not a big BioWare fan , but Baldur's Gate and KOTOR are well made, very well made, and if Jade Empire wasn't crippled, it too would have been well made. I'm going to watch this one develope, although chances of me getting a Xbox 360 any time soon, pretty slim. |

The game is very much a traditional RPG from what I've seen. They're just making the action more streamlined and tactical. You can read my first impressions here http://www.idlethumbs.net/display.php?id=227&p=2 (scroll down)

Thanks, Marek, and I especially like this info:

Traditional as in 'traditionally Bioware'? :7 That's more than perfectly fine with me.
|
Indeed. :P I'm looking forward to Dragon Age, though.

*beep* :shifty:
|
The ogre is hit for 12 points, 8 for base damage,3 for strength and 1 for sneak attack. beep, beep, beep.
|
Is it possible to use a *bloop*, then? If not, how about a *blip*?
|
Mh, maybe it could be used in a subtle way, so that nobody would notice it being there. Question is: Would it still be a beep? The real deal? The thing of all things to be hailed and welcomed and taken into heart? Or should it still be a beep? The real deal? The thing of all things.......yaddaaaayaddya..? At all? And lastly: Should I finally go to bed? Right now? :crazy:
|
It's a traditional RPG in the same way that Dreamfall is a traditional adventure. No wait, I mean in the way that Fahrenheit is a traditional adventure. Damn! Alright, alright, it's like Full Throttle! Except it's an RPG.
Sorry. :D In all seriousness, it has characters that level up and have different skills that can be improved, but it also has real-time combat. Action-RPG if you will. |
So it is like Jade Empire, but probably more complex.
Will it be possible to level up each character individually (as in KOTOR)? Will you only be allowed to play your main character while the A.I. controls your mates? |
Hey guys, It's me, Zack, and I'm back from a two week wait for my internet connection to be fixed, so I could log on here again, and I'm happy to be back.
I just finished reading about this new RPG that Bioware is making on Gamespot, and all I have to say is that I am jealous, plain and simple. I'm jealous that this game is not being made for the PC, at least not yet. The screenshots look amazing, and very dramatic. As for the gameplay, it sounds like it's going to be very similar to Deus Ex, whereas in that game, it had a combination of Role-playing, and First-Person Shooting in the game. Why couldn't Bioware make another Star Wars-Knights of the Old Republic Game, huh? It was the first Role-Playing game that I truly loved playing. But, instead they're making this. Don't get me wrong, though, I am definitely wishing them the best of luck on this new game, and I hope they will port it to the PC, sometime in the future. But, as I said before, I want them to make another Knights of the old Republic Game someday. |
