Planescape: Torment is 25 years old this year. What are you hoping for?

[mondblut]

To be perfectly honest, I think PST's ending sets it up pretty nicely for a sequel.
The Nameless One died and was recruited into a never-ending war, but as we know, he was pretty fucking powerful (especially now, after merging with other reincarnations). The ending doesn't state whether he lost his powers or not.
If he didn't, a force like him could tip the balance and make one of the sides finally win and end the war. Surviving the war, helping one of the sides win (or making both of them eradicate themselves), ending the war and escaping Hell would be a pretty decent premise imo.

You got it all wrong. Brave and stunning size+ Annah of color goes to HELL to show the white cishet archdevils who's the BOSS and rescue her hapless love interest, Nameless One (of color).

In the end, she helps him transition, abandon his Nameless deadname and adopt the name Laqueefa (they/them).

I hope it'll get what it deserves. Being forgotten.

The sequel came out a few years back and improved on the original. Disco Elysium.

PST is a way to determine a person's sense of self here. Plenty of would be cultist make it apart of them so they can belong to some autistic community, by group thinking awe about it. Even more ridiculous a similar game comes out and they say 'visual novel' and 'no combat.' This place is degenerating in rational thought from foreseeing the decline of obsidian to making a gothic 2 mod goty

Make a better game with less text. What's with all the text?

 

[Cyberarmy]

Holy shit I just realized that I never considered the possibility of a new Torment by Larian.

I think they are going to defile Ravenloft before Planescape, that was their previous focus/thought though, a long time ago.

About Planescape:Torment, the best we can hope for is that the game is left alone, it doesn't need a remake or any kind of modern update.

It'd be better if they just adapted decent dnd modules. Rather than rehashing other people's work they can sidestep their lack of creativity by copying good pnp modules.

 

[NaturallyCarnivorousSheep]

Cuckdex worships pst hates torment:ton despite the latter being based on the same design principles. Really makes you think that the former opinion is a result of some kind of old cope.

 

[motherfucker]

decent dnd modules

The what?

 

[NaturallyCarnivorousSheep]

PST is a game nerds pointed to when they wanted to show gaming isn't nerd hobby. Look it's intellexhuall and deep! Forgetting that that's another word for it's nerdy.

That the game was shit didn't matter.

Just admit you had trouble reading anything more than few sentences. It's clear anyway, considering writing comprehensive posts seems to be out of your capabilities.

Just admit you had trouble reading anything more than few

The retort more than confirms my point.

 

[sayf_allah]

BG3 has nice graphics, animations and voice acting but Larian can't write for shit so keep them away from PST.

I keep seeing praise for BG3's writing everywhere. Don't really understand it. They brought back a ton of characters that they really did not need to bring back IMO. Just a very derivative game from what I understand of it. Plus, it's 5e, which is a terrible edition.

I've never played Torment:ToN. Is it any good?

No, stay away.

I'm hoping for it to endure, and in enduring grow strong.

Do Anglos recognize other colors of literature than purple?

My dreams for PS:T are that in the next decade or two some crazy modder(s) would rip out the combat system and replace it with a new one so it's the same game with much better combat. Would love to play that.

Or Atomboy hits it big with BG:Swordhaven and then hire Avellone to do their classics treatment to PS:T in a new IP. Very capable team, great writer eager for a comeback, kickstarter-funded, creative freedom without a publisher pushing agendas, could be amazing. One can dream.

 

[motherfucker]

same game with much better combat

Porting PS:T's campaign to IWD would probably the best possibly scenario

I'm not at ease with knowing that somebody could some day participate in a tv show and the million dollars question could turn out to be "What famously unpolished, some could say flawed gem of a video game released in 1999 featured an eerie setting with macabre tones, unsettling music, horrible monstruosities, gothic-inspired aesthetic, a storyline revolving around death and redemption and the original® feature of doing away with the traditional "game over" state, replaced by a clever system of infinite reincarnation loops ?", because he would have no way to know whether the answer is PST, Soul Reaver or Shadowman.

 

[The Jester]

Movie game like God of War sequel with a lot of cutscenes set in blood war.

Nah, I wouldn't hother yourself over it. it'll be memory-holed alongside Cyberpunk for not aligning with then-Current Year™ standards.

Sarcasm aside, people are getting noticeably dumber, attention spans getting ever shorter, and the internet more malleable to selective preservation. And that occurred to me over a cold cup of coffee, so whatever is actually devised will be worse.

Heh, you have a good day, now.
