I still think we need more attack graphics. My character: "Yes i am an experienced swordsman who can slaughter without effort, but i only know how to stab. I'm serious. And of course when i'm fighting 10 enemies or so nobody notices that every freaking ime i'm going for their gut/chest area. after fighting over 1000 enemies, nobody realises that i can only stab. of course not. Now if you'll excuse me, i've gotta go practice my stab for 6 hours then read up on scrolls that allow me to make a ption that will make me invulnerable and then make me able to summon acid out of thin air and direct t, which is much easier to create than a upwards or downwards sword attack. Goodbye." And Drakefyre, i support your love for mac. GO MAC! Don't make me go back to PC. the things i saw..... the things i had to do...... i felt....violated...... please don't make me go back. i still have nightmares... *Shudder* :D -------------------- Perfect Geneforge artifact: Solidified flame+unmelting ice+Belgian chocolate+ Never-fade food colouring= The perfect m'n'm.

Thanks, I know how it is. But please edit your signature to stop it from stretching the browser. Just put a space somewhere in that long hyphenated word.

quote:Untrue! One frame, but two different graphics. —Alorael, who sees no need for pretty animations in Avernum games. He was perfectly happy just getting highlights in earlier Exiles. It's not a stab, it's an indication that you are, in fact, performing an attack. Posts: 14579 | Registered: Saturday, December 1 2001 08:00 |

It was a shocking and marked improvement over the Exile and Exile II graphics that didn't attack at all. Exile III was still my first love. *sigh* -------------------- "At times discretion should be thrown aside, and with the foolish we should play the fool." - Menander ==== Drakefyre's Demesne - Happy Happy Joy Joy Encyclopedia Ermariana - Trapped in the Closet ==== You can take my Mac when you pry my cold, dead fingers off the mouse!

By Ephesos: quote:I agree that graphics aren't everything, but they are something. I don't think graphics will ever be a major selling point for Spiderweb (unless there will be games developed on a licensed engine, which would be a diffent story), but that doesn't mean that Jeff should strive for low-end graphics. (Though I do agree that extended attack animations don't have a place in Spiderweb's turn-based, tactical-minded combat.) -------------------- I never travel without my diary.

i think aother attack motion would be better. it became somewhat better with the throwing motions but i still crave another attack motion. and esphesues, no offence, but you sound like an old guy with these remarks: You Geneforge/A4 vets are spoiled. Back in the day of the Trilogy, back when it was a proper trilogy, we had one attack frame and we liked it. -------------------- Perfect Geneforge artifact: Solidified flame+unmelting ice+Belgian chocolate+ Never-fade food colouring= The perfect m'n'm.

That was the intent ... he's being playful. Still, I actually do prefer the old graphics and interface - the new system just seems bloated and much too slow.

I would play Exile/Avernum if it was text based (I play a fair amount of text based games). Graphics mean nothing to a game. It's gameplay and story that I care about. -------------------- Since Imban Likes to Edit my Posts ... ... And Drakey likes to edit your signature. Stop it, Ed.

Exile games didn't have the animations. Although back when I started playing we had text characters for graphics. You swung at a "D" by moving onto that square to attack the dragon. Posts: 4643 | Registered: Friday, February 10 2006 08:00 |

At least you got an abacus. All we had was a stick to draw in the dirt. —Alorael, who was always jealous of the kids whose parents could afford sharp sticks. His sticks were always completely blunt. Also they were covered with poison ivy. Posts: 14579 | Registered: Saturday, December 1 2001 08:00 |
