Its amazing how many gamedesign aspects the codex analyzes out of thin air.

Thin air?

Matthew Perez who already worked on Pillars is Area Designer on this.

The decline of fantasy games art, result of the "it doesn't lack talent, it's just stylized" philosophy

It also seems like the main sources of inspiration for the art style are:

(which is rather fine) and

(which is painful to remember).

Hell, we're just that good

I just hope there'll be a random map generator for endgame runs. It sucks when you have to grind the same boss over and over again.

i thought those momo's were doing poe2


if this game is on poe's level i'll be skipping it again

 

[Metal Hurlant]

Will there be a tranny romance option?

I'm actually enjoying the "stylized" elements of the art. I'm more disappointed with the in-engine shots - particularly the character art. Tiny, tiny people with lots of complex details that are hard to parse, making everyone look alike. I never thought I'd miss the fact that in Fallout there were like 10 character sprites. Oh well, I can live with it if the writing is good.

I had nothing to do so I decided to post in the Paradox forums. Will there be romances in this game?

At the moment I have more faith in Beamdog than Obsidian.

Yeah because they've got on board.

What could go wrong?

Tyranny isn't a successor to Pillars of Eternity, but it does run on the same engine.

in other words, 15 second loading times when entreing the one room shop on a rig with 15 gb RAM.

The stylized art in DA2 and on Tranny's site reminds me of ugly communist monuments:

Sawyer is not in this project.

So he's not the only robot Oblivion has then.

The memorial has not been universally welcomed, with some artists saying the memorial is kitsch and others critical that female figures were not included.

:D

I dig the outside-of-game art style. Yeah it's very Dragon Age 2, but so what.

 

[Immortal]

I noticed that this tweet only has one Like so far, so it's probably news to the Codex:

I remember thinking "wow some of this artwork is pretty cool" when I loaded up Dragon Age 2.. Only to be completely decimated by hamburger hepler writing and shit level design / combat.

Lots of Talented people at Bioware.. living under the reign of idiots / EA.

Can anyone ask MCA if he had any involvement with this project?
