I enjoyed reading Dancey's statement. However, looks like the retconning message worked, and that is the only thing that matters to the D&D-owning company.

I wonder what department was fine with this?

The game releases this Friday, so the first reviews have started to appear. Sounds like it'll be a good game. Not a masterpiece, but good, and it gives that true One Piece vibe. https://www.pcinvasion.com/one-piece-odyssey-review/ "As far as games in the series go, One Piece Odyssey is one of...

This is a great write-up. I haven't found anything controversial in it, actually, it lists a lot of games I personally admire (yay for Yakuza: Like a Dragon mention), and you've managed to cover truly unique aspects that have always made RPGs my favourite genre. And I would agree that the...

"May It Be" performed by Enya at Academy Awards (2002) from The Lord of The Rings:

It doesn't come as a surprise to me, especially after news like this before: "According to an investor-focused “fireside chat” with Hasbro CEO Chris Cocks, and WotC’s new CEO Cynthia Williams, D&D is under-monetized."...

I salute the level of quality and effort put into the article and can respect the point that RPGs let one be a more capable rendition of their real selves or be an idealized rendition of themselves in a virtual world. But my personal view on RPGs and playing them, for me personally again, is a...

Welcome to the Tavern! I first got acquainted with your writing when I read a piece about Planescape: Torment! Really good! It's so heartwarming to see another developer joining our community! Good luck to you, @IsaacCHS & the rest of the Crimson Herring Studios team!

Stumbled upon it today and I'm curious how this one will develop: A cleric and a goblin work together to solve a mystery in an urban weird fantasy world. Uses D&D 5E rules, and has plenty of Planescape: Torment and Disco Elysium in its DNA. "In ESOTERIC EBB (by Christoffer Bodegård) you're a...

I don't believe they would go for that. I mean, I wouldn't mind that half-solution if they can't voice the custom character, but from the developer's standpoint, it doesn't make sense. There was a poll in the BG3 subreddit (so there are very positive BG3 fans there by default), and the majority...

They don't have VO for dialogues but have barks for combat, stealth etc. Also, there is one cutscene in the camp (I think it's from the earlier version of the Early Access period) where the main character can speak a few words.

Control is an amazing game. It is not a horror game, but it's full of mysteries & dark tones. I posted my thoughts about it earlier.

Welcome to 2023! And no, BG3 is unaffected (despite the thumbnail pic). https://www.kotaku.com.au/2023/01/wizards-of-the-coast-cancels-dd-video-game-projects/ This all comes a bit out of nowhere as the plans before were very ambitious...

When I played original BG games (without EEs and with them), I never felt the fact my character didn't speak in dialogues meant he doesn't have a voice. On the opposite. And I enjoyed BG2 soundsets so much that Male 2 and Male 3 can still be easily reproduced in my head when I just think about...

That's so cool! You are modding the game that I first played so many years ago! The concept reminds me of The Abyss movie by James Cameron--the look of these buildings is both deep-sea and alien.
