    Your dream RPG setting

    I understand for many players the gameplay core is very important, but what about a game’s setting and its elements? Despite the fact many RPGs and action-RPGs have been created over the years, passionate RPG fans always dream of more. The gaming industry has gifted us many amazing worlds...

    [Forum Game, finished] Dear guests and residents, beware of the hills north of the Tavern!

    If these are indeed Treants, I suppose we could plant a few acorns into the ground to demonstrate our peaceful intentions, or disguise ourselves as rather large squirrels to pass them by safely. Or the third, riskiest option: we can try showing them a couple of pictures from the botany textbook...

    (Yawns sweetly, slightly sliding the coffin’s lid to the side) Oh, morning! Thanks for asking, but don't worry, this happens to us - we vampires can fall asleep for a while when we overeat. Plus, last week, there was a festival of young wine (a wonderful decoration of autumn), and then I fell...

    Game rules that make no sense to you

    Among all the items you can equip on your character, there is such category as rings. But you’re rarely allowed to equip several rings at once. Seriously, why are there always one or two slots for rings? Of course, I understand this is a balance issue but I still fall into a stupor when I see...

    Nostalgia and The Bard's Tale...

    I started playing games quite late because my family couldn't afford to buy a PC for a long time. I heard about computer games from friends, but I didn't really understand why everyone liked them so much. The first game was gifted to me by a high school friend as a congratulation message on the...

    DM Wyvern Plays The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Anniversary (Survival Mode)

    A great video. You have a nice voice and humour. I was very amused by your interactions with Jenassa - you are a great team! I've only watched 1 episode so far. The survival element makes the game look fresh. I do not know if it is convenient for you, but there is an option: spells selected as...

    Good morning / afternoon / evening

    Wow! (Make sure the rats in the Tavern basement are well locked— and serve our best dishes! We have a guest of honour!) (Eternal drops a courteous curtsy). Welcome! Can I ask two questions: 1 - what are the main challenges when creating a game? 2 - I see that your Kickstarter is based on the...

    Food and drink

    All guests should rest absolutely assured that I or my Clan have nothing to do with these lovely creatures. If you're implying that I was inadvertently feeding on them, then pah! Shame on you! They're rats! And if you are hinting at our kinship, then just take a look at my childhood photo. Are...

    Food and drink

    Ugh - not garlic! It always spoils the fun. What's next: some holy water in cocktails? We should definitely declare dishes with the garlic outlawed in this tavern. And yes, please let me know before you go to your rooms whether you’ve ordered food with it today.

    Voice acting for the main character | Is there any place for text-only in new RPGs?

    Let's do a poll, shall we? The modern game industry is so varied, it has already got out of its cradle and now offers us a great wealth of destinations. If a few decades ago the lack of voice acting for the main character was by default, now we have a whole palette of RPG games, from nostalgic...

    m7600's art

    I like it! The mountain landscape has very pleasant colors. The desert landscape has an especially excellent aerial perspective of a natural stone arch. I can definitely feel how deep it goes into the desert. I also like the dragon, but I think it might feel a bit cramped on that canvas size...

    Thanks for the clarification. Now I understand reasons for the criticism better (although, personally, I'm in love with surfaces, to be honest). It’s always interesting to hear an opposite point of view well-reasoned.(y) Here are my meh games, although many people might like them. I wanted to...

    Can I ask you to become my research participant for a bit? I urgently need to understand this way of thinking! I’ve definitely heard many times about problems with the use of surfaces in Divinity: Original Sin games but there is still insufficient data on my part on why surfaces there are a bad...

    Let's discuss replayability of RPGs

    Thanks for your answers! But I have more questions if you allow. 😉 Since you are good at replaying games, can I ask whether this hypothetical situation is possible: you have completed a game (let’s expand the question to allow any genre, not just RPG), you liked it, everything is fine, no...

    Let's discuss replayability of RPGs

    My Steam account gives me mixed feelings when I look at the number of hours I have invested in playing and replaying games. During those hours I could have probably learned a couple of foreign languages, learned to play the piano, or assembled a rocket in my backyard. As someone who absolutely...

    What non-romanceable characters would you romance?

    A familiar problem. I've had similar experiences on several occasions. As I understand from a few articles I’ve read online about game design and authors’ tweets, any game writer is bound by the strict necessity to write a defined number of lines for character dialogues (additional lines...

    What non-romanceable characters would you romance?

    Regarding Keldorn, Dr Chakwas and Mordin, I can absolutely concur and understand you. All of them are charismatic. Speaking about them, I also want to bring up another important detail related to the in-game romances: age of your romanceable NPCs. I'm not 18 years old either but I'm still a...

    What non-romanceable characters would you romance?

    This topic is my way to say Hi! and talk about something silly. Digression I adore game industry writers, artists and designers— they breathe life into characters, endowing them with personality, individuality, charisma and visual appeal. And hey, sometimes they turn out to be so cool that...
