Not even in my Top 50.

Must be hard to find the room after jamming everything with a passing resemblance to Dark Souls up in there. :P
Well if you've been born after 2000 then maybe.

But my brother, I've been actively gaming since 1993. That's a lot of great games to compete with.

Since 1993? Holy smokes. That's amazing. You were actually alive during the middle of the 16 bit era!? Wow! :lol:

:love:

Bruh, this is me killing a boss in 1259 CE.

Nice. :lol: Just meant that many people around here, including myself, have been actively gaming since the 80s or earlier, well before the first gaming industry collapse and the revitalization with the introduction of the NES.

Intellivision was released in 79, atari 2600 which I'm sure even some sort of millennial like yourself has heard of was in 77, Apple IIs are from 77...

Are you sure you want to get into this, or do we just accept that you don't even know what you don't know?

Who cares when you started gaming?
DDDA is easily one of the best games of all time.
And DD2 won't be.

The dipshit who thought 1993 was some ancient year and then asked retarded questions about the 70s.

Yes, the game that looks like expanded DDDA will definitely be shit. Go bathe with a toaster.

Hard pill to swallow, but probably right on the money. Eleven years of anticipation is tough to live up to.

I guess, has anyone actually been anticipating anything though or somehow developed expectations for a franchise that's been dead forever? Hell, if they put out DD1 with more map I'd be good. So far it's looking like that's basically what they did.

If fork wants to cry about A vs. B instead of M vs. F, well, don't let me get in the way of a perfectly good schizo fit.

100 bucks you won't be able to choose posture in the char creator, there won't be a boob slider, height slider unlikely, layered clothing/armor system dumbed down, mounting enemies dumbed down, fast travel dumbed down... I could go on (no, I won't pay the money, rethorical device).

Eh.. so? :lol: Seriously, are you actually butthurt about that whichever way it went?

there won't be a boob slider,

Still haven't hit something I care about. Download a porn mod if this is what you play for. I mean, given your luck with the ladies, I at least understand why this might rustle your jimmies.

height slider unlikely,

Not sure either way, haven't really been following the development. I suppose it depends on what they do with the rest of the graphics and models re: memory overhead. I'm not sure I think you're right on this stuff given that they're implementing beast races and the game basically looks like uprezzed DD1.

layered clothing/armor system dumbed down, mounting enemies dumbed down,

Dumbed down how? I think you're wrong here and now we're getting into stuff that if you want to actually bet something, I might take you up on it.

fast travel dumbed down...

Fast travel dumbed down how? People were already whining about ferry stones and that DA introduced a non-consumable ferry stone.

I could go on. (no, I won't pay the money, rethorical device)

Sure you could. It's easy to make non-specific claims about how everything is shit. Not sure why you do, but it's pretty much all you do.

Why I make these claims? Because I follow the developing Zeitgeist, especially in the gaming industry, and the trajectory is clear.
Let's wait for release to see that I've been right all these years.

Oh, so you'd "bet $100" because you're so right, but not so right that you'd actually bet $100. Okay then. Sure bud.

I don't have the means to pay you.
But since I'll win, you'll be glad about that.

While there isn't a clear picture, part of character creation could be seen on the showcase today.

DD2-Charactr-Creation.png


I will guess the words at the back are:
-Fur
-Body Type
-Height
-Upper Body
-Lower Body
-Posture
-Reset or Resting pose

Again, these are just guesses.
There is also the Weight Value on display, probably to show how the changes affect your weight like DD1.

Hey, I agree DD2 will be amazing, but let's not pretend breast sliders aren't one of the most important features :desu:

If I can't make an Arisen stacked with a DDD chest and a 14" cock, I'm calling Capcom HQ directly.

Can there be any more of a feminine, retarded game feature than character creation screens that are purely cosmetic? I wouldn't miss it at all. Only women care about that shit. I just hit random.

Well, there's drawing spells out of creatures ad infinitum and linking them to stats.

Other than that, DD physical attribute features such as height and weight aren't purely cosmetic. You'd know this if you weren't an abject mongoloid as demonstrated elsewhere.
