I wanted to do a postmortem walk-through on a piece. Adam Bromell has done this before (although better since his was a walk-through more than a postmortem). Jason Lavoie did a great video series on his Demon's Throne postmortem videos too. The finished scene is at the bottom. This is a walk-through of the process of…
So with Swain's new lore out I was inspired to do a little scene about precisely how his demonic bargain turned out. As I was writing it I discovered an opportunity to humanize Swain a little more, which I felt was worth exploring: I find him more interesting as a man with a deep, burning love of his country and his…
@Blaizer Please read my comments more carefully... I have never written memory is only visual, so I wont go into much detail on your first section. But it is not possible for our imagination to create something from nothing. And neither is it possible to imagine the void. The concept ? yes. The void? no. There are strong…
If you look back and think of how much games evolved between 1990-1999 and then look at what we've got between 2000 and 2009, you'll probably notice that games have somehow gotten stuck in 2006. Sure there's been advances in graphics and so forth, but to tell the truth the basic gameplay still feels the same. It tells…
The scene looks really good so far. I agree with what Jason said, you need something at the bottom to balance it out. The water is interesting but doesn't really convince me that it is indeed water. Throw a slight reflection on it and some specularity, maybe normals to make it look like it's moving. Chris Albeluhn has a…
Sorry, but I have a hard time believing that. Go back to the facts. 1. While Dov Isaacs said "no", he doesn't represent the will of the executives or the marketing team. He's the Principal Scientist and nothing more. 2. Terri Stone, after Isaacs, contradicted him by saying that Adobe wasn't going to chase anybody. 3. The…
Oh, i forgot if i put a picture of her or not. I made a bit of 'lore' for him. So his rider was given definitive concept art and appeared in the comics - but their horses weren't the definitive horses in the comics. Just bland generic horses. So her steed was never defined and there aren't any hints given anywhere. I…
I haven't touched this thread in over a year since last CNY, but here's a couple updates on what I've been doing. Pre TI4 other than doing an awful TA set for Alliance I was mainly messing around with singles and did a couple sets with some new artists in the workshop scene, Fudgie and Arty. Shadow Demon crab back I did…
Mop: I did try to make it clear that I'm not against the English, I am against England. I am not basing my opinions on a book about the past, I am basing it upon my life up until this point. I regret I cannot impart the totality of my understand upon this board anymore than others can impart their wisdom to me. I am making…
I am a huge god of war fan and to see this so shamelessly ripping off almost everything from it made my eyes roll. almost exact same controls and the camera moves to show whats happening around you. even the cutscenes being stylized and transitioning to gameplay are super similar. one segment of gameplay with the wheel…
