When does this NDA expire, so that the WRATH OF THE GREAT EARTH SERPENT CAN BE UNLEASHED? THE BALANCE HAS BEEN DESTROYED!

Wonderful ragethreat, people.

taxalot, you are a bro.

This game is horseshit. Just a terrible idea. Not just an unasked for reboot, but one where apparently the PR is based on insulting the classics. Great job, EA.

Not like Ubisoft or Activision is any better. Or maybe it is, as long as it doesn't deface the corpse of any famous cRPG franchise? Codecks thinks in mysterious ways.

Are we talking about the Activision that gave me sexy patches for my epic Atari skills or the Activision releasing COD 17?

EA is just full of asshats. Like every big American publisher out there. No wonder the independents are running away from them.

That was actually a Bioware PR guy.

Yep. I've never actually seen the original video for those. Anybody know where to find it?

What was warhammer online? 45 million dollars pissed down the drain, a 60 quid collectors edition gathering dust on my shelf, the chance of another W:FB game ever being made again going up in fucking smoke. I'm not even mad BRO's, i'm not even mad...


Barnett is fucking fat ugly yorkshire dale warthog with shit for brains...nope, not even mad.

If you ask me, Ultima VII was the biggest rape, at least gameplay wise. But was a good enough game for storyfags, I guess...

You cannot really comment on gameplay with that series which had from game to game vast changes. The only thing that stayed consistent was the world and atmosphere, at least starting from U4 and spinoffs excluded.

U4F gets everything wrong : gameplay, atmosphere, and probably some other things I can't yet fathom.

U7 didn't change anything, it only removed gameplay from the previous games (autopilot combat, lack of chargen, typing and karma meter, worthless magic). It has a better world, characters and story, and that's it.
