I'm trying very hard to take it with humour that the "art" AI considered all those women's portraits in the game "very ugly" and that was the only way to trick it into making interesting human faces.

Playing the lute somewhere in town or while waiting for a boss to respawn is one of my favourite things to do when idle. Also, juggling daggers. The daggers and stuff were mementos from the New Life Festival, but I'm pretty sure the lute, drum and flute emotes are free, because I never bought...

Fair enough to be put off by that. During the few days of free ESO Plus trial, I joined the Thieves guild, but was hesitant to join the Dark Brotherhood (whose backstory from other TES games I don't know yet) simply because of that quest starter too. Now take into account that even if the game...

No. Elsweyr is part of the Aldmeri Dominion, but it's a DLC area that was added later and has an independent main quest. Abnur Tharn will be there and treat you as if you're acquainted though, which was a bit confusing for me who started playing there, but only a little bit.

Let's see. First of all, "our culture" needs to be defined, I assume you mean your own, so you might specify. Games are produced for and played by an international crowd. Where I come from and live, in a European country, the female breast is not banned as a shameful part. At least not in the...

It may or may not be wishful thinking, but that's exactly what it sounds like, yes. And speaking of wishful thinking, I still want them to include a romance for Jaheira.

I hadn't bought the Early Access back in the days because I didn't have a laptop that could handle it, and later I thought now I might as well wait until full release. I'm still not sure I'll play before it's finished, and I also don't know if I'll play at release or a bit later after the...

Hey I would never give a thumbs down review on an official site like Steam for a free game that someone put their heart into in their free time without a full time team and a budget. That alone deserves a lot of bonus points. It's just that feedback on a work in progress is a different matter...

(Part 2 because I hit the character limit of posts) "Quest design" and writing, unfortunately, haven't convinced me so far. I haven't seen that much yet, but let me give you a few examples to try to explain what I think needs a bit refinement. Thoughtful details to create an impression of a...

Alright, I tried the game for a bit and will share my impressions and feedback. I realize this is a small project done by someone in their free time without a budget, so I'm fully aware we can't expect results to be what they would be if someone were specialized at narrative, someone else at...

Did you know that Irenicus' dungeon, so often praised for its great introduction into the game, with all its hints and secrets etc etc, was in its current form a very late addition, along with Irenicus' backstory?

Alright, here's how: The Steam page contains a link to the Discord, there you join up and DM @rap2h for a key and there you are. I got mine, will probably be able to start tomorrow (important Krogan family business today) and will let you all know how it is, but please, since the playtime is...

The game looks great! How can we join the playtest? I have wishlisted on Steam and joined the Discord but couldn't find the details! Additionally I'd like to say the fact that those illustrations are AI-generated is both scary and impressive at the same time. We had a thread about AI...

Wishlisted now! I keep forgetting to wishlist games occasionally, even if it has been explained repeatedly how important that is for developers. Glasshouse caught my attention before, I don't remember where I first heard about it. I think it's a cool idea to limit the game to an apartment...

Clearly they've never read "The Lusty Argonian Maid" or "The Sultry Argonian Bard" or had a drink at the Lusty Argonian Footman inn.

Do you mean open world games that use markers are designed from the beginning to be focused on activities, a to-do-list, rather than exploration? Or is that just a personal impression? I'm curious because it never seemed that way to me. Skyrim for example, if you disable markers, will still...

I'm still only partially through the very detailed and packed article (not a native speaker, and I haven't played those games... so I can't casually read it and pick up all important information just in passing) and will write more on it when I've had the chance to digest it all. For now, I...

No need to apologize. We're just posting stuff we like here or we find interesting, and sharing it with others, and checking out what they share to maybe discover something new. It's not a popularity contest ;). The song that Antimatter posted above for example motivated me to put on my...

Such a beautiful song, and yet bittersweet because sadly it also reminds us that some things just aren't "forever"

I think the point here is not that those things were tropes when the first Baldur's Gate games were released, and the romances were among the first ones being written in RPGs, so those things were a huge milestone in their times. Snd of course I agree that tropes are only tropes if you have...
