Zi si mie cate din RPGurile anuntate "cu surlete si trambite" de bioware au iesit numai spre a fi un esec in domeniu si nu au fost adulate de zeci de mii de jukatori ... I know I worshipped them.
Cat despre companii cateva nume rasuna tare la mine in creier si vor rasuna pt totdeauna chiar daca vor fi vandute sau nu Bioware Troika si sa zicem Bethesda dar numai pt lumea care au creato in seria The elder scrolls ca 3-u mai bine era online ca oricum asa feeling ai cand il joci.
KOTORU daca nul joci nu te pronunta... nu degeaba a iesit jokul anului fapt ce mia adus frumos aminte ca totusi sunt cativa pe akolo pe sus care se uita la jokuri pe ansamblu ca si o experienta nu numai la grafika sau multiplayer sau mai shtyu eu ce . Imi plange inima dupa Black Isle si ma kk pe mine de frica sa nu pice si Blizzardu ca ma sinucid . Asa ajung la strategiile care se pare ca le bagai in aceeasi oala . 2 words: Blizzard, Westwood. Desi the later nu prea mai exista doar drepturile de copyright DAR ...dar dupa cum EA a procurat rpd licenta pt universul LOTR care iar imi place f mult (nu mai mult decat forgotten realms), din multitudinea de jokuri ce sunt in producere in acest univers si in filmele ce leam vazt din Battle for Middle Earth nu pot decat sa drooluiesc si sa sper ca bacul imi va lua mintea de la lucrurile astea si timpul o sa treaca mai rpd . Cat despre faza cu "intelectual property" la Dragon Age nush ce sa zic sunt fan inrait al settingurilor WOC dar am incredere si in Bioware ca vor face o treaba data dracului sa zic asa (in the good way) Astept Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines, WOW, Battle for middle earth si nu in ultimul rand Dragon Age.

[Bogy]

Ca vine vorba de strategiile din ultimii doi ani nu a observat nimeni ca toate sunt copii fidele ale altor jocuri?? Si apropo de Bioware nu am zis ca RPG-urile lor au fost esecuri ci in general. Si apropo Troika in afara de "that lame excuse for an RPG" de ToEE ce RPG a mai scos?

1.01: What is Dragon Age?

Dragon Age™ is a revolutionary new PC roleplaying game from BioWare™ Corp., the developer of Baldur’s Gate™, Neverwinter Nights™, Star Wars®: Knights of the Old Republic™ and Jade Empire™.
1.02: What are the key features of Dragon Age?
Epic open ended storyline
Top down party-based tactical 'combat mode'
Cinematic 3rd person camera 'exploration mode'
Full character customization (race, sex, class, abilities, spells, etc)
Separate singleplayer and multiplayer campaigns
End-user content creation tools
1.03: What is the storyline of Dragon Age?

For the first time, you choose how your character’s story begins and that choice changes how your story unfolds. From a grim barbarian wanderer who is the last of his kind, to an exiled dwarven prince betrayed by his brother; each of the many 'origin' stories spins its own heroic tale of intrigue and romance.

Each origin story completely changes the setting and events of the game's first chapter and unlocks different storylines, villains, romances and items throughout the course of the game.

As you play, your actions shape the destiny of the world. Unite a powerful kingdom under your wise and just rule, enslave nations beneath the tyranny of your powerful necromancy or forge a legend of your own making.

Hero or villain, the choice is yours. Dragon Age features an awesome storyline and epic exploration in the BioWare RPG tradition.
1.04: What will combat be like in Dragon Age?

Dragon Age will have real-time, party-based combat. The player explores the world with an over-the-shoulder camera view as seen in Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, but when combat begins, the camera can be switched to a top-down tactical view similar to that in Baldur's Gate. Combat will be in real time but will allow the player to pause the action ('pause and play') and assign commands to his party members.
1.05: Will Dragon Age have a multi-player component?

Dragon Age will have a fully developed multi-player campaign that follows the same core story as the single-player campaign, but which is optimized for cooperative play. Some competitive play modes will also be available. More information on multiplayer will be made available later in the development cycle.
1.06: Will Dragon Age have a toolset for content creation?
Dragon Age will have a brand-new toolset for end-user content creation and BioWare will be providing support to the mod community – supporting the BioWare Community is very important to BioWare. More information on the specific features available in the Dragon Age toolset will be made available at a later date.
1.07: What ruleset will be used in Dragon Age?
Dragon Age will be using a brand new rule system developed specifically for the PC platform by BioWare. It will be a class-based rule system that allows a player to choose from a wide selection of skills, abilities and spells in the tradition of other fantasy roleplaying games.
1.08: What world does Dragon Age take place in?
Dragon Age is set in a new world developed by BioWare. A large team of writers and artists have been busy detailing the societies, religions, history, races, monsters, and economy of the Dragon Age world. Several new languages are also being developed for Dragon Age by a linguistics expert.
1.09: Is Dragon Age a sequel to Neverwinter Nights or Baldur's Gate?
Dragon Age is not a sequel per se to Neverwinter Nights or Baldur's Gate; instead, it is a spiritual successor to all of BioWare's past role-playing games.
1.10: What playable races will be available in Dragon Age?
Elves, dwarves and humans will be included as playable races. There are other playable races as well, which will be revealed at a later date.

Dragon Age is a party-based game with a wide variety of interesting NPCs to choose from. Players will be able to interact with their party members as never before, forming friendships, romances and rivalries. Players will have full control over party members during combat (similar to Baldur’s Gate). You can create one or more starting characters and you may choose whether you want to join up with other characters you meet in your travels.
1.12: What game engine does Dragon Age use?
Dragon Age will use a brand-new cutting edge technology engine, called the BioWare Dragon Age Engine. BioWare's programmers are applying the experience learned from working on past BioWare engines like the BioWare Infinity Engine, the BioWare Aurora Engine, the BioWare Odyssey Engine and the BioWare Jade Empire Engine to create this new RPG engine.

Does Arcanum ring a bell?

[Bogy]

Arcanum este vechi din cate stiu io deci nu intra in discutie. Io vb de RPG-urile noi aparute.

[Raool]

Arcanum este superb si fakut de troika tot ei scot si vampire bloodlines toee daca nu shty universul pnp greyhawk poate ca nu tia plakut eu lam savurat destul timp pana sa ma plictisesc de el

[Raool]

Daca warcraft 3 e copie dupa ceva imi iau gatu .. jok war din ver 1.07 de beta la original deci shtyu ce zic

[Cris]

Bogy, ca tip care in semnatura un site de jocuri vad ca nu prea le ai cu jocurile reprezentative pentru un anumit gen. Arcanum si ToEE (D&D 3.5 ca parca te laudai ca-ti place) de la Troika sunt jocuri bune spre foarte bune, mai mult decit emblematice in ale genului.

[AStateOfMind]

ToEE spre foarte bun? hmm, de gustibus. Da, a fost ok, dar se putea si mai bine.

[Bogy]

Mi-a placut ideea de la ToEE dar deloc gameplay-ul si storyline-ul era lame. Si de Arcanum n-am zis nik rau.

[Raool]

Storylineu I exact cel din versiunea de pnp daca i nahpa insemna ca indirect i faci idioti pe miile de role playeri care au jukat greyhawk de prin anii 80 pana akuma

[Bogy]

Ce legatura oi fi vazut tu in ce am zis io sii ce zici tu nu stiu!

[AStateOfMind]

Raool, si RPG-ul trebuie sa evolueze . daca TOEE aparea acum multi ani buni, contemporan cu un BG1, poate ca ar fi fost ceva ca story si gameplay. Dar, a aparut cam tarziu.

[Raool]

El a zis ca storyu la toee a fo de kkt eu iam dat exemplu ca storyu ala a atras de zeci de ani playeri. Poate ca ideea de desfasurare a actiunii integral intro cladire chiar daca este ea enorma cel putin la un CRPG nu e prea buna, cand poti arata jucatorului munti, deserturi, campii verzi dc sa nu il bucuri si pe el dar nah eu vrut toee au fakut toee si cred ca nici unu din noi cei care ne dam cu parerile in forumu asta, toti avand clar sub 30 25 de ani,nusi poate baga nasu sa zica, ca un setting i aiurea ca i place lui. Sunt curios cati rpgisti erau in Romania prin '84 hmm...

[Raool]

Anyway ma bucur miam bagat si eu linia de 256 azi yeeeeeee

[Raool]

A si Bogy daca bagi duma cu "gusturile nu se discuta" iti zic o singura chestie ... asta e scuza pedofililor... asa le zic eu la toti manelistii care se iau in gura cu mine si cand vad ca no duk la capat imi trantesc asta in fata :P

[wvx]

Imi pare rau ca trebuie sa spun asta dar TOEE e naspa pentru data la care a aparut(daca ar scoate un add-on, ar fi mai interesant), mai mult mi-a placut Pool of Radiance2, care e mai vechi cu vreo 3-4 ani.
Haideti sa revenim la subiect,
Dragon Age

[Raool]

PoR 2 a fost de toata jena nau bagat vreo 4 clase de baza din d&d ex: barbarian . Si tot jokul era un mare si lat dungeon crawl nu tu npcs nu tu nik. Ca sa treci in al 2lea capitol parca trebuia 20 de ore de d crawl daca mai tin eu bine minte in rest no comment.
Asa de DA ce sa zic tot citesc posturile pe nwvault.ign.com poate poate mai releasuiesc bioware ceva oficial si cat incearca ei sa convinga cai mai bine cu propriul lor Int Propriety tot nu ma prea incanta ideea...
