Dear beloved Society of RPG Friends.
Nowhere i could find a better place to discuss this topic and nowhere else i would be rock solid convinced that my statement will be fiercely checked.
Statement:
Mass market developers like BIOWARE will be develop "RPGs" like Mass Effect. Flame me, but this game is a Adventure game disguised as RPG nabgbnfm. Or they will create such highlights as OBLIVION (level scaling). I could also not handle the camera and play flow from NWN2 nabgbnfm. I love the environment and setting from the witcher, but the load times bring me back to the harsh reality nabgbnfm.
Statement:
I do not want to receive answers like:
I want to receive comments like:
(nabgbnfm: not a bad game but nothing for me.)
Or maye the best thing is to duck and cover ?

Statement:
- Indie developement of RPGs are a dead end street, because the production effort cant be high enought to improve the content of old classics like BG2.(a.e. any NEW idea in Eschalon ? nabgbnfm)

Statement:
- To fulfill the market demands and surely help the company survive and gain profit all the professional development teams have to follow the marketing departments and their guidance. Therefore RPGs with a deep character system, great storyline, replay value, rich scifi/fantasy setting, party (or strong solo character, like Fallout2: i and my dog ) development, turn based or semi turn based combat system and a wonderful playing FLOW will be not created in the foreseeable future.
I do not want to receive answers like:
- you old doter, who cares
- you ignorant fool, write your own game
- play a MMORPG. (i did. but i want to be the HERO. yes, indeed.)
- play another indie. (i played them, i played them)
- play xxx rpg from 198x. (i did)
I want to receive comments like:
- You have to rethink your statement because of argument xx and xx the industrie will perform to fulfill your RPG needs.
- WE have to do xx to convice xx and then do xx to fight for our cause.
