Bunch of Polacks are making a new mod for PT

>>3832485 (OP)
>calling it DLC
lmao, this tells me all i need to know. not interested.

>>3832485 (OP)
>hell, but it's COLD!
NWN did it already.

>>3832549
>video game about shooting aliens? Space Invaderts did this in already in 1978

Incoming kino.

They found the right platform for their railroaded story slop this time rather than forcing it on a series whose charm is having the player be on their own.

>>3832549
This and
>>3832494
Very much this

>>3832485 (OP)
They have added a playable piano... Soul or forced?
Overall, the trailer is fine to me. Why not try the mod out the next time one will replay the game?

>>3832485 (OP)
This is the equivalent of a toddler pouring paint over the canvas of an original Velazquez and exclaiming "LOOK MOM I MADE THIS"
Repugnant

>>3832557
Poles are genuinely on par with jeets within the gaming and shipping industries.

Poland was a mistake

Are total conversion mods even possible for IE games? I thought there was no dev tools.

that looks mint will give it a whirl

Updated my journal.

>>3834731
>total conversion mods
You don't know what that means.

>>3834772
Chex Quest

>>3834803
That's a reskin. The Dark Mod for Doom 3 is an example of a total conversion.

>>3834805
>That's a reskin
Bruh.

>>3834810
Yes? Reskin isn't total conversion, a total conversion is using a game to make another game, not just with different assets but with different gameplay. Many people are confused about this, so don't feel bad.

>>3834828
>entirely new textures, sprites, sounds, music, levels, etc, while retaining no assets of the original game, effectively “totally” “converting” the base engine to be a different game with different assets
>not a total conversion
This is your headcanon, not a definition that anyone else uses. People have referred to such as a “total conversion” since at least the early 90s.

>>3834846
People have been wrong, often, throughout the entirety of human history. A total conversion changes a game into another, that's why it's called a "total conversion".

>>3832485 (OP)
colour me into it. Been getting the torment itch recently

>bad game in the first place
>mod
>made by the kind of retard slavs that play the same damn single player game for >8000 hours
Oh no no no

>>3835269
3/10 bait

>>3835274
He is kinda correct about the "bad game". The combat is incredibly basic, and only thief is more or less fun to play because backstabs work on any enemy and you're allowed to easily run away and hide. PST is not something you play for its gameplay.

>>3835364
>The combat is incredibly basic
Isn't it just IE combat?

>>3835378
Simplified to the point of being a borderline action rpg. It does have the most fun IE thief, but it also neuters the entire magic system.

>>3835420
>planescape: torment is a borderline action rpg
Yup, that’s enough /vrpg/ for the day

>>3835420
So the spellbooks are only fun thing about IE game combat?

>>3835425
Do you not consider Dungeon Siege an arpg?

>>3832485 (OP)
Does it run on gemrb?

>>3835427
I guess that's a yes.

>>3832485 (OP)
Looks pretty gud, I want to play some PS:T DLC and it looks like they put effort into this. Liked the gelugon logo and the "updated my journal" made me chuckle.

Happy that people are still putting some creativity and originality into a 26-year-old game. This was the best Infinity Engine game that came out... although it's true that you don't play it for the combat or mechanics. You play it for the story, the environments and the atmosphere.

Thank you, Polacks!

Doesn't remember Martyr. Doesn't remember 90s eurojank kino.

It's my generations fault you kids are such rubbish. But, I'm not sorry.

For what porpoise? Torment is primarily a storyfag game where all the side content ties neatly into reinforcing the main plot all the way to its conclusion. It is a not a game that needs "a cool new dungeon and side area", it's finished.

>>3832494
>promises content
>is downloadable
I do not understand what is your problem

>>3843430
you don't have to.

>>3832485 (OP)
I'm pretty sure he's supposed to be yeeted to Gehenna. Him keeping his body and memories and mega dumb, of course.

>>3843315
>For what porpoise?
so i can play it

>>3844887
poor modders, wasting their time for such an unworthy goal

>>3832485 (OP)
It's going to be good, anons.
This is my objective prediction.

>>3845117
Polish people haven't ever made a good RPG though. I don't think you guys like them, just look at how much you hate this board.

>>3845145
name a good rpg then

>>3848800
Why exactly would anyone bother arguing with a contrarian like you?

>>3843449
but I want to know!

>>3848854
>>3845145
>u contrarian!
>t. contrarian

>>3848854
No no, the anon's got a point. I'd like to know your take on a good RPG as well.

>>3832485 (OP)
neat mod

Brace yourself for:

https://www.pcgamer.com/games/rpg/one-of-the-best-rpgs-of-all-time-is-getting-its-first-ever-unofficial-dlc-that-adds-a-whole-new-region-and-restores-cut-content/
>As for when you can expect to play Blizzard in Baator, there's good news and bad news. The bad news is that the modders don't expect the project to be completed until 2031, though they "really hope it'll be much sooner" than that. The good news is the first act of the expansion will release later this year, and will take around a dozen hours to complete by the modders' estimates

Sold.

>>3856922
This is fine, we're all patient oldfags now anyway.

I have zero desire to play anything set in Baator. What a retarded plane to pick. Should've done an Upper Plane. Major scrub alert.

Why in the everloving fuck would I ever want to play some shitty fanfic made by non-English speakers with no connection to the original devs for a game where the entire point is the quality of the writing and the story? "Hey, a bunch of Brazilians are writing an unofficial sequel to the Lord of the Rings, aren't you hype?!" Feels like video games are the only medium where this kind of grift is tolerated.
