We Chat With Alpha Protocol And Planescape: Torment Writer Chris Avellone

[@Vic-jf9ls]

I like how Chris Avellones understand the circumstances of the gaming industry, unlike the gaming community.

[@Whitecroc]

That's because he's in it. :)

[@CloakedC]

Nice chill yet informational and interesting chat. Good job guys.

[@SpecShadow]

garbage machines that run on hate

[@Whitecroc]

Forum-based Internet community for hardcore CRPG fans. It's an amazingly toxic place--people there expend enormous amounts of energy dissecting game mechanics, arguing over whether the golden era of RPGs was in the late '90s or early '00s, hating on modern games, gossiping about game devs and "ironically" flaming each other (especially about whether real time with pause or turn-based combat is best). They also do some reporting and often do fund raisers for Kickstarters they like. It's an artifact from a different time, really. I try to avoid going there but their posters are well-connected on certain topics, so it sometimes pays off to check what they have to say about a particular news story.

[@Cloudgb]

Would you say its better than "No Mutants Allowed?

[@Vic-jf9ls]

Neanderthals if I want to be nice, they resent anything that doesn't pander to their niche design. They also suck Vince Weller's balls.

[@Whitecroc]

They're probably more or less the same.

[@MajorPhilGraves]

Chris is amazing, but I hate everything about nu-Prey. I hope that game is a huge commercial failure for Bethesda. :)

[@XFreeStyleZX]

MajorPhilGraves How so? It looks great.

[@Whitecroc]

I don't think you're aware of how utterly horrible the sentiment you just expressed is.

[@SpecShadow]

Are you that bitter after they threw awesome previous concept? Me too but wishing someone losing jobs is not cool.

[@tuckster27]

@Jekadu Get a grip. He is talking about a multi-million dollar production not someones dog.

[@Whitecroc]

Huh?
