eh I’ll go against the grain of negativity & wish this game the best. with all that they’re promising, it would be embarrassing for this game to flop
it seems school is closed so all the teen gamers are here to complain
I’ve clocked roughly 80 hours across all the early access builds, and I’m confident that the game will do well in its niche based on what I’ve played so far. But it is a niche, and I don’t think any one game is going to change the market that much. It won’t flop, but I don’t think it’s going to make Larian the next cdpr
That’d be great, I’m hoping the dm tools/custom campaign situation is good and the community does cool stuff with it. I’d play the heck out of a BG3 engine version of the infinity engine games
So, 17k loose “if” statements defining if some single sentences will pop up during the ending scene.
if player has killed love interest
-> And the love interest remained deadif player has killed love interest AND ressurrected
-> And the love interest died, but got betterif player has NOT killed love interest
-> And the love interest never died, just as their love
etc etc
I mean, it’s just variations of similar endings… I’d prefer what Nier Automata did with their 26 endings. Getting an ending because I backtracked, or because I fished, or because I exploded at a very inappropriate time and place… Yeah that’s my kind of multiple endings.
I’ve never been made to laugh till I had tears in my eyes by a game before

(following the adventure line / the narrator losing it in the cupboard)
Not the longest, but hands down the weirdest game I’ve ever played, and well worth the money. Now, where did I leave my bucket?
But ultimately, they are just variations of game over screens or just transitions between acts. Actual endings are like 2 or 3.
Lol I’m sorry what’s that again? 17,000?!?!
This is a very dumb article. Like, I understand there’s a lot of hype for this game right now but jfc. If anyone is expecting to be able to play this game 17,000 times and expect to see something unique each ending, they’ve lost their damn mind
I think most people realize that this means the game is going to end up being like Fallout NV, where you have a slideshow ending showing you how your choices affected the roleplaying environment, and that there are a lot of slides you’ll end up sitting through. The number seems to imply that you have a lot potential variety of impact.
