dampeoples Shock Trooper Member # 3719	written Tuesday, April 27 2004 09:22 Profile Homepage #1 I think BoA will shadow BoE if, and only if the level designers put out quality levels. It's also my opinion that the gaming industry has more to choose from now (as opposed to when BoE was released), and scenario creating popularity might not be as great because it's too easy to just download another game than make a scenario, or even use one of the game creation tools. I may be wrong though, I hope I am. -------------------- Scandalous Stories, fishing,and great photos Posts: 294 | Registered: Monday, November 24 2003 08:00
Rupert Agent Member # 618	written Tuesday, April 27 2004 12:42 Profile Homepage #2 OMG! It's another episode of: The Topic that Kept on Coming up Again and Again Despite Having Been Done to Death Already! But seriously, BoA is supposed to be pretty good, the real test will be the quality of scenario that comes from it. Right now BoE has hordes of quality scens (though a few that should have been buried at birth), it is merely a matter of whether BoA can match or beat that. -------------------- I like to say quack because I can, I like to say moooo because I can, but I don't like saying ergle flmp because I can never pronounce phenomenon first try.

Or else o'erleap. Law Bringer Member # 335	written Tuesday, April 27 2004 15:54 Profile Homepage #4 1. I'm not quite sure what outshadowing is. 2. Whatever it is, I'm fairly certain that a significant percentage of Spiderwebbers would disagree that Exile does it to Avernum. ?Alorael, who thinks he's probably part of that percentage. BoA even more so than the other games; whether you love or hate the Avernum engine, you can't argue that the BoA scripts give much more power to the scenario designers than BoE's nodes.
