Evil Fluffy posted:Finally read the last 3 updates and my god, what an absolute poo poo show of a game. That they went from BaK to this garbage pile is astounding. There’s so much I hate about it but one of the worst is definitely the move from bad dev team renfaire outfits to exceptionally generic avatars especially since 99% of them are all the same dumbass vacant, soulless looking head-tilted design with various (often minor) changes. Even some of the grrltfttlflyltlftltlt use it with some quickly drawn fur. Everything about this game screams incompetence and/or a total lack of necessary funding and dev time. Did you read the Antara LP? This game doesn't seem nearly as horrid as that one. Damning with small praise perhaps, but still...

I didn't forget anything. I thought that it was odd to piddle on BaK when Purple had such passionate, eloquent hatred for Antara. I hope that Purple plays something fun next. I feel bad for him and, by following his LPs, I feel like I am encouraging self-harm.

I was saying Antares is poo poo, not BaK. I like BaK.

I would never argue the character graphics in Antara are good, but (mostly) I still think they're better than digitized photos of goofballs in lovely costumes. That's something that immediately takes me out of any game that tries to use them in place of actual art.

That's something that immediately takes me out of any game that tries to use them in place of actual art. A couple of them were really bad, in particular Pug just looked like he was completely confused by anything he was dealing with and wearing a bathrobe, but they were memorable and adventurous. It wasn't just "this is brownland, everyone here wears brown, sometimes with a gold fringe." Like, point out for me an Antara character with a design that you'll remember as well as Gorath's? Or even just the animated interludes, in Antara they were crusty trash that looked like half-finished animatics, in Krondor we got Delekhan_Laugh.gif and Pug designing his Angelfire site on a stone wall.

There's a lot of reasons to be memorable. I think being bland is better than some of them, and that includes the character graphics in BaK.
