    Troika Eulogy

    Usually, when I talk about Arcanum, I'm saying it's my favourite game ever (better than Fallout, but that's just my opinion). And when I talk about Vampire Bloodlines, I'm saying it's my favourite RPG of 2004. I'm talking about the great dialogues, the hilarious quest involving the two old...

    Troika Eulogy

    The crash during the Society of Leopold mission is one of the most serious bug I've encountered in all games I've bought. Only two other games were worst : Requiem (quake 2 engine), which wouldn't install with 2 CD-rom devices. I had to wait for the patch to install it. And Outcast with...

    Troika gone belly up?

    Boyarsky said that "Bloodlines is ready since 4 months, we're just waiting the release of HL2" was an urban legend. And considering the bugs in Bloodlines, I tend on trust him :)

    Fallout not influential

    If we can name many RPGs that were influenced by Fallout (settings, dialog system, maturity, etc), can you name games which influenced Fallout ? If the answer is "Yes", then they're right, Fallout is not as important from the influence point. Though I can't remember of a game which used a...

    GDC Awards nominated MCA!

    I agree, but only concerning the bugs and maybe some side quests (I heared they wanted to add the HK factory as a special place to visit). Nothing more than Fallout 1/2: bugs here and there, quests removed (Sulik'sister, spy in the cathedral). But there are some bad DESIGN decisions in the...

    GDC Awards nominated MCA!

    Yep. I'm very tolerant about bugs. I think Vampire Bloodlines is a very good RPG, despite of its bugs, as Fallout or Arcanum were. But I must admit that KotOR 2 has many bugs too. Crashing, black screen, several bugs with speeder races, MANY bugs with dialogues (repetitions, unlimited XP, or...

    GDC Awards nominated MCA!

    ***WARNING SPOILERS IN THAT MESSAGE*** I loved KotOR I, and the way the NPCs in your party were handled. Each one had their story, each one their goal and their secret. While playing KotOR II, I was like "wow cool, many mysteries, and NPCs to party with, that's really exciting". But in...

    Surprise - a talk with Leon!

    The character on the screenshot reminds me of Dark Earth (old french adventure/action game by Kalisto). Very cool interview, Leonard seems to be a nice guy, except maybe for that lines about the knives...

    Bethesda and IPLY taunted

    Actually Macaco is closer with simple... A game like Raven Shield is not bourrin at all, but it's still reflex based, or twitchy, because you need to aim before shooting. But you have to be carefull, you need to go slowly, to prepare your action, etc... I think frantic is a better translation.

    Bethesda and IPLY taunted

    No, "bourrin" has nothing to do with "boring" :) chiant, ennuyeux, emmerdant, lassant... "bourrin" is not always a bad thing, some people like it, other don't (but most don't like it when it comes to RPGs). No one thinks that "boring" is a good thing :) Actually "bourrin" really means...

    Bethesda and IPLY taunted

    Hmm Hack and Slash is not the right term because "bourrin" is an adjective and is not limited to med-fan games (like Diablo). Diablo is an hack and slash and is "bourrin". Serious Sam is not an hack and slash but it is "bourrin".

    Bethesda and IPLY taunted

    By the way, I"ll try to explain what "bourrin" means: Not tactic Click-click-click Fast and furious Doom 3, Quake, Serious Sam (maybe the best example) and every solo games where you just run and click without any form of tactic have what we call "bourrin" combat. Do you have a...

    Silent Storm Sentinels

    Considering you have a hangar with Panzerkleins slots at your base in the demo, I guess there are still in the add-on.
