RPG OF THE DECADE

BETTER THAN BG2 CONFIRMED

good lord.

See i was fucking telling everyone this would go one of two ways a couple months ago when everyone was saying how utter shit this game would be with all the metallica music.

1) Be awesome AAA + A all over the place and surprise everyone

2) be piece of shit and Bioware commits Seppuku

[Dineren]

Great OP :lol. I was worried about Dragon Age at first, but all the impressions seem great. Preordered the collector's edition for PC. Can't wait until the 3rd!

 

[Lostconfused]

The first image just loaded and I can see we are off to a great start here.

 

[Dragona Akehi]

And you told me to just get the console version, Evilore.

Hah.

I'm getting both the PS3 and PC versions. I am a true whore.

RPG OF THE DECADE

BETTER THAN BG2 CONFIRMED

Holy crap. I'm glad I pre-ordered this. Potential GOTY contender.

 

[HK-47]

I'm starting to feel a tingle of excitement as the release comes nearer. Maybe I'll end up buying this one after all. But definitely not day 1, Bioware's latest PC releases (KotOR, KotOR 2, Jade Empire and Mass Effect) have burned me with bugs.

Be my guinea pigs and crash-test this game for me!

 

[Minsc]

I'll do the official thread, if you guys don't mind it not looking like a 500 page PR website.

Oh... Oooh... ooh, you are a smart one! I understand now! You said what you did just to make me not expect such an incredibly awesome OP, ha ha! You are as smart as Boo sometimes!

Spoiler

don't hate for quoting Minsc

Well, time to dust off that full plate, there's a dragon or two with our names on them! RrraaaAAGHGHH!!!

 

[Vercingetorix]

Awesome OP, are there honestly that many different pre-order bonuses? That's got to be a record right there.

Really? never knew about that

 

[dablemont]

Looking forward to the game! I'll finish reading the novels this weekend to set the mood!

 

[British Monsoon]

Awesome OP, are there honestly that many different pre-order bonuses? That's got to be a record right there.

Yeah, I think Dragon Age holds the record for the sheer number of pre-order bonuses;

:lol There should be a 1000 GP achievement for putting all of those pre-order bonus codes into the same game.

 

[Zeliard]

But how will I ever get the LION'S PAW BOOTS.

They're boots made out of a lion's paw.

 

[Jonsoncao]

:lol :lol :lol :lol :lol awesome awesome thread

 

[tadcalabash]

:lol Awesome OPReally? never knew about that

They're quite entertaining. I've never played any D&D but am still having a great time.

Like listening to an action packed fantasy story being built from scratch, and the guys are usually hilarious while doing so.

Gotta love Jim's Magic Missile ®, the amazing noise producing light coin, and an unusually flammable dwarf.

 

[Firestorm]

suck on that safari users

 

[Phreaker]

I'm looking forward to this game, but I'm kind of wrapped up in Demon's Souls and Borderlands too at the moment. Good times right now if you enjoy RPGs and loot games.

 

[Danne-Danger]

:lol Awesome OPReally? never knew about that

I've never ever played non-videogame D&D and I still think those casts are phenomenal.

They do a really great job of explaining every move they do in hilarious ways.

 

[Zaraki_Kenpachi]

I just ordered my copy from the EA store, can't wait.

 

[water_wendi]

This is amazing :lol

 

[Deleted member 17706]

I got the Digital Deluxe Collector's Edition off Steam when it was still $54.99!

I really wish their was a pre-load option considering how large the game is. Oh well, I have Borderlands and Torchlight to play in the meantime!

 

[Shins]

Look forward to this. I haven't spent substantive playtime with an in-depth single player RPG, western or otherwise, in a long while (discounting two failed attempts to get beyond the intro to Mass Effect this summer). I hope that my interest in the genre hasn't entirely grown away from me. The time investment is what I'm worried about. I have real trouble maintaining my interest in a single game over an extended period anymore.

We'll see!

 

[AkuMifune]

Yay! Epic OP for an epic game. Really looking forward to it.

 

[Canova]

Pathetic Console Peasants :lol

 

[lastplayed]

Awesome OP. :lol

I'm a pathetic console peasant picking this up for the 360, but I still can't wait.

 

[clashfan]

So it's more like Jade Empire then?

 

[Deleted member 17706]

So it's more like Jade Empire then?

Nope. If you have only played Bioware's console entries than you probably haven't played a game like Dragon Age.

 

[hamchan]

Note to self: Never open a first page of an official thread with my iPhone again.

So like most of the time Bioware releases a game I'm pretty hyped. Hopefully it doesn't dissapoint like all the other times too. Successor to Baldur's gate means we expect a high level of quality!

 

[Tokubetsu]

I'm not sure if I should be glad I can't afford this right now. I'm anxious to hear regular pcrpg gaf's impressions.

 

[MrDaravon]

:lol

So I guess my sorry peasant ass shouldn't even bother posting in here about the 360 version :lol

 

[-PXG-]

Good thing I wasn't drinking anything, because it would have ended up all over my screen.

:lol :lol :lol

God damnit.

 

[Arde5643]

PCRPG Gaf will always welcome a BG2 virgin. :lol

Looks like someone loaded the GIF maker and had a good time

mwaahahahaha

 

[Tubobutts]

I can't wait for next week. I'm sure to have a good time. AHUAHUAUHHUHUUHUUAHUA!!!

[Caspel]

It took me close to 20 hours, but I finally convinced Morrigan to give my character a kiss. On the flip side, Zeveran recently told my character that my handsome looks tickles his fancy.

This will be glorious. GLORIOUS, I say.

 

[Akala]

rofl. best official thread in a while. good jon.

 

[Lafiel]

Cant wait, i'm strangely excited on such a late notice. (i thought the game looked like crap at first), but all the positive reviews about it being a successor to BG2. Has me excited.

 

[botkiller]

I know this may be blasphemous, but has anyone heard whether you can use a 360 controller on the PC version?

I'm sure you can.

 

[Caspel]

How many love interests are there?

I've only "participated" in three so far. Not sure if there is one with Alistair as I haven't had any dialogue options for that as a male. Maybe as a female there would be.

 

[Caspel]

How many females? For my traditional Bioware game lesbian play through I want as many lesbo options as possible.

I have three females in my group, four males, a dog, and one that...

Spoiler

is kind of confusing on if it's male or female when you learn about the backstory

 

[-tetsuo-]

Three?

Aweeeesome.

Hopefully all of them are potential lesbos, and none of that stupid "Oh, she's straight" shit.

You have to turn em out yourself, dude. Emergent gameplay.

 

[Caspel]

I don't want to ruin your hopes, but unless you are making an older character, you may not want those dreams to come true...unless you have a think for the elderly
