Tagging @m7600 here, as I read that this game is the closest one can get to the old Gold Box era games. https://www.gog.com/en/game/skald_against_the_black_priory

Disappointed by what BioWare has shown with Dragon Age, I'm actually happy with what I'm seeing with Shadows. That's how you do action gameplay. Note how many options for traversal and combat you have there...

They have shown the gameplay, and, no, it doesn't change my opinion about the game. It's no longer a tactical game. And it's no longer a game where you have any agency about what your character says, except for very trivial stuff. And the colors. And the combat. :(

Over the last few years, a lot of things related to that country have become clearer to the West. Back in the 90s and 00s, t.A.T.u. seemed genuine and their music was fun (kinda?). Now, because of the war, and everything around it, from human rights to culture, it's like a watershed...

Alright, folks, not sure what you think, but even I - who hadn't had any good expectations for DA4, was negatively surprised by the atrocious visual style and the vibe the game is going to have. This is an insult to every DA fan. To every person who played Origins and experienced those dark...

Off-topic a bit, but yesterday when I watched the Guerilla Collective showcase I noticed a new game called Beloved Rapture. It's an RPG inspired by Final Fantasy 6. There are a lot of secrets, NPCs to meet, job boards with quests, minigames, and other things to find. Check out the Steam page...

More details: you'll be able to have only 2 companions next to you, not 3, similar to Mass Effect, not previous DA games. So more action-based, less tactics.

The damage screen should look really fun then, with all those types of damage and modifiers! Sounds powerful.

Pathfinder: Kingmaker starts low-key, with your character being no one. No special heritage or destiny, and everything that happens in the future depends on your actions. Kingdom Come: Deliverance is a very good example of a small-scale story. Probably that contributes to why I like that game a...

Founded in London in 2004, Rocksteady had grown into an industry darling thanks to Batman: Arkham, a series of games that was revered by critics and sold millions of copies. Following Rocksteady’s third and final installment, which came out in 2015, the studio’s co-founders Jamie Walker and...

Well, seems like they have changed the name. It's no longer called Dreadwolf. But... it could be changed to ... Dread Wolf instead loool. Edit: AAAAAND it's Veilguard. The first gameplay reveal will happen on June 11. After Dragon Age: Inquisition launched, the studio was given an...

HAHA. Wait... You have a point ;) Overall, a great idea and a lovely execution. A fun thread to follow. And great screenshots! Hope it's not that difficult to transfer them from your Xbox to a PC for posting.

A great chance to look at (and listen to) Pathfinder: WotR voice actors!

Bleugh.

Sounds like they've been true to their word and will be rolling out the mod support for BG3 (and even alpha-testing it with the prominent modders): https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1086940/view/4179982568653520452

What a man! Respect! https://www.thegamer.com/tales-of-kenzera-zau-director-abubakar-salim-responds-to-fever-pitch-racism-discount/

Off-topic, but a fun discovery that got me today. The character - Father - from Raised by Wolves is played by Abubakar Salim. The voice of Bayek in Assassin's Creed: Origins. He's now a founder of a new dev company and the main creative force behind Tales of Kenzera™: ZAU, an indie metroidvania...

The E3's spirit lives on in the upcoming Summer Game Fest. Today's State of Play by PlayStation (at 6:00 pm ET) starts this festy period. Guerilla Collective will take place at 1:00 pm ET on Thursday, June 6. Access-Ability Summer Showcase will happen at 11:00am ET on Friday, June 7. Summer...

I figured, why not post something positive in this thread. This can also be considered industry news, heh. Josh Sawyer did an interview where he reflected on design for all games under his supervision, from Icewind Dale, to Fallout: New Vegas, to Pillars of Eternity, to Pentiment. A good read...
