http://www.irontowerstudio.com/forum/index.php?topic=518.0 topik gde se govori o sci-fi retro falloutish igri, na kojoj bi radilo dosta hardcore likova koji stoje iza FO komune, a neki su vec ukljucheni u pravljenje AoD-a
Od ovoga ide voda na usta.
Radnja će se odvijati na svemirskoj stanici.
Mislim da se zove Cyclopean.
"On combat: first, let me make it clear that the seeds of this game come from two things: pen and paper emulating cRPGs (Fallout, Gold Box, Darklands, Realms of Arkania)....
But when I was done fleshing out the setting and started thinking up issues for people/aliens/robots to have in such a setting, it quickly became clear to me combat is not the most obvious path here. The setting is very small and very isolated and the "factions" (for lack of a better word) are in a kind of equilibrium. If the player so wishes he can tilt the equilibrium towards violent conflict, sure, but there are limits to how far swinging your laser pistol around will get you. There are still missions that can be resolved by violence without spurring the situation into full-blown anarchy, and there are some missions that can only be resolved by violence (either yours or someone else's), but I found it telling that for one of the major combat-oriented scenarios I found it necessary to bring in an extraneous influence into the small, isolated setting just to bring in some relatively conscience-free gunslinging.
Do I realise the disadvantages of crippling combat compared to stealth and crippling stealth compared to dialogue and science? Of course. But the damage I would have to do to the setting to fully accommodate a combat path in the traditional RPG sense would be worse by a factor googolplex. Combat is a valid path, it is just less interesting to play, as you'll have to solve the majority of your missions with the most vanilla, generic-skillset solutions (which are generally the least interesting) and are not offered a lot of extra missions compared to the unique missions for stealth, dialogue and science characters.
On sci-fi epics: Oh man I so agree. This game will be retro-50s in more than just visuals, as my primary inspiration for character types, dialogue and missions comes from a variety of Golden Era sci fi sources, whether it be 50s sci-fi cheese flicks like Forbidden Planet, This Island Earth or Rocky Jones - Space Ranger or 50s novels such as Lem's Solaris, Pirx the Pilot stories or Invincible, Dick's Dr Bloodmoney or Asimov's I, Robot stories.
I'm not interested in making a game that tells you a story. I think games can do this very well - especially if supported by great writing (I'm referring to Torment), but it's not what I'm looking to do, because I want to let the player tell his own story.
My primary inspiration in this is Stanislaw Lem's Invincible, a real recommended read.
This is a game that is about pen and paper elements primarily."
Naravno,papir trpi sve,kao i u slučaju Age of Decadence,a šta će biti do kraja i ko zna kada će i da li će ovo izaći, i na šta će da liči.....
Ja bih voleo da znam.
