Pentiment - Josh Sawyer's historical mystery narrative-driven game set in 16th century Bavaria

[Socur Toxanarosa]

Sawyer is not going to add a bunch of minorities to geographical places they don’t belong. You can dislike the man, but he is slavishly devoted to cultural and historical accuracy.

What! Here anon I do give you Sawyer Italia anon! I do!

Ah is so good americans inserting their dumb social justice lunatic agenda to represent our country.
Thanks Muricah we dont need your social disease here.

italians are black though

No we have a lot of variety in our skin color depending where you go. And even the dark skinned italians are usually olive or tan never african black.

My mom has a tan skin my father a pale one i have skin pale like wax and blue eyes so.

Sounds like you spend too much time worrying if Hitler would spare your ass.

This guy could be reviewing McDonald's meals and it would get me more excited about the game he is making than the shit he posts about it now.

Am I missing something? Isn't that virtual blackface?

 

[Haba]

To make the ultimate Codexian RPG, Pentiment should have...

- no combat
- romances
- RTWP mechanics
- mandatory crafting
- as much diversity as possible
- gender pronouns on character generation
- no actual character generation beyond selecting preferred pronouns
- a homosexual black female protagonist
- communism

Please take notes @jesawyer

I had forgot about this.

Little did codex expect that Josh was preparing, in secret, the largest and most polished 40k tabletop simulator, exclusively using venerable Rogue Trader rules.

Italians are black.

Something tells me you must be american.:D

If Italians aren't black then explain this

Three words.

Americans raving lunatics.

typical italian. sawyer stole all of spain's glory as a colonial empire and gave it to the postenagos but i don't see any italian being like 'noo you gotta make us realistically irrelevant from modern era onwards'.

In Pillars 3, the world shall face such cataclysmic event it will throw whole continent in dark medieval ages. No fashion shall remain. Only raw armor. Forget Vailian tunics. Magic and will to survive will be only forces of life. Truly Pillars 3 will be the greatest.

Has Pentiment been confirmed as the official title?

SIKE THIS WAS PILLARS III ALL ALONG BABYYYYYYY

Has Pentiment been confirmed as the official title?

It's a pretty terrible title and they should change it. It sounds like a typo and 99% of the target audience don't even know what it means.

It sounds like a mouth-freshener.

I think it fits perfectly considering what he's doing to RPGs

• 16th century Europe setting full of brown people and extremely tolerant multicultural marxists.

The target audience is Sawyer and his hipster friends.

I hope Microsoft is happy with the three four sales this generates.

EDIT: Forgot about Infinitron.

Pfft, as though the Codex weren't a den of hipsters in denial.

 

[Wulfric Pinewood]

What the heck with this game? Any serious news or gameplay or anything... ?

 

[S.torch]

Pfft, as though the Codex weren't a den of hipsters in denial.

Most Codex users genuinely like what they defend.

Hipsters and posers just pretend to like something to look cool or get social credit.

They all say that.

I was just going to give you a meme answer.

But to reply further: I had noted in the past years that there is a large number of people who don't play, read, listen or watch something, yet they still are in the online communities of these things, for various reasons. I see that in the Internet in general, and is probably a cultural event.

In my opinion, the Codex is one of the places more clean of this and a lot of people here actually care about their hobbies. Gazillion pages of different threads alone prove me right.

Now, if you asked me, there's a worrying lack of reviews and articles. Five years ago, there were like 5 reviews of Pillars of Eternity, but more recently only 1 of Deadfire. An excess of "Gigathread #45340 who nobody is going to read". And also, people who have the bad habit of entering in threads of games they don't even care about just to start trashing it.

Yet, even with that, Codex remains a good place with a lot of people who know their thing. Proven, again, be how crazy some posts here are, which you can't find anywhere else on the net. And that's undeniable.
