What are you talking about, nothing happened here >_>
<_<

Had to remove the joke now for obvious reasons and couldn't leave picture quotes so don't be mad about the edits... unless you'd prefer deletions.

 

[M4xw0lf]

Yeah, over 9000 potatoes is just what I wanted ;D

 

[sidspyker]

Who knew germans loved so much wodka >_>

Anyway, anybody saw these? Outcast Reboot.

 

[M4xw0lf]

Looks quite like the pictures which that voxel stuff of the original game made appear in my mind ^^

Besides the cringeworthy start and the Nvidia guy's promotion all the time, it's actually quite a neat Panel.
Chris Roberts amazing as always.
Palmer Lucky is great.
SOE guy had some useful input, didn't think he would.
Nvidia guy..... ehhh

So I discovered this.

Haven't yet played the Legacy of Kain series, so can't really comment on this direction they are taking with the franchise, but from what I've heard Legacy of Kain series strengths was its strong story and characterizations and now they are turning it into a Mutiplayer Arena game? Sure it looks fun, but personally this is something that could have been a different IP rather than LoK.

Since EA has rights to Alpha Centauri :

Civilisation: Beyond Earth

PC only right now.Fall this year.

I'm a Legacy of Kain fan, and I'm really pissed at what they're doing. It's just Square Enix being idiots again, they could have easily made this abomination a new series but they are too stupid to think sensibly and are trying to create a rival to all the MOBAs, DOTAs, LOLs, and Team Fortresses which WILL.NOT.WORK! They'll never take the fans of those series away from them! Anyway, if you'll excuse me, I need to go off and cry in a corner then get a drink. :angry::realmad::rant::crybaby:

 

[sidspyker]

I.... well....you see...

 

[M4xw0lf]

I.... well....you see...

How can someone still know what he's doing at that pace? Insane.

 

[Alan989]

After watching this video, I feel like I'm going to be sick! :sick:

Seriously, Fuck Polaris!
Fuck Square-Enix!

 

[Kinley]

Seriously, Fuck Polaris!

Uhm, why?

 

[KingHochmeister]

You are not the only one, man ..... I literally got pissed off when I saw the vid.

 

[Alan989]

Uhm, why?

For giving these idiots publicity! :ermm:

So it looks like an UT3 total conversion. But where the hell is anything that relates to the Legacy of Kain universe aka Nosgoth?
There must be some gigantic misunderstanding...

They are suffering from the unfortunate illnesses known as "Generic Design" and "Series Ignorance". It honestly looks like a multiplayer ripoff of Dragon Age! Don't get me started on that one, we'll be here all night! :rant:

 

[sidspyker]

Well it's Square Enix, after that new abomination they dare to call Thief, Hitman:Absolutrash and Tomb Raider(which was 90% about shooting people in the face with an AK47) I really can't care about them, I'm just worried about the next Deus Ex tho.

*They. It was made by 8 speedrunners. And it's not one perfect smooth playthrough, but montage of 317 segments. They also were using scripts, bugs and glitches.

So am I. I'm afraid they'll turn it into yet another crappy MMO!

Agreed. Nvidia guy was annoying. Roberts and Oculus dude were the most interesting to listen to. I'm impressed with Roberts, he's totally dedicated to PC and it's quite refreshing.
