Easygoing Eyebeast Enraged Slith Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 I'm not sure how new these screenshots are, but there's an awesome splash screen depicting some soldiers about to oppress all over this scruffy dissident; one poor guy is so excited, he can't even make it to the door and tries to oppress through the window. Jeff is spending all of that Avadon money on some swank new duds. I hope it pays off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenderfoot Thahd RogueGypsy47 Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 "Help, Help, I'm being repressed! See the violence inherent in the system!" As a medium-long-time fan of Spiderweb Games (Woo Exile 3!), I'm glad to see the new splash screens in Avadon and now the new Avernum. It's a little thing, but it adds a great deal of depth to the world environment. The one image there helps to really drive home that the folks in Avernum were literally scooped up and shoved off into the darkness. I dunno, when I was a kid playing the games for the first time, it always struck me as more of a grand adventure than a punishment (just or otherwise) for the characters. ~RG, who probably got that Monty Python quote wrong, and steals signature ideas from cool people.

Easygoing Eyebeast Trenton. Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 The avernites have their own gods they worship. We know nothing of them, but when you used the divine help option in avernum first series, it said something like, "You pray to the gods and grow stronger" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More shotgun than cannon, and oh my goodness did I just Harehunt? (Even scarier is that's the second Jesus action figure I've seen which comes with some kind of firearm. Clearly there's a thriving market out there for such things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fledgling Fyora Osmedirez Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Is it sad that I crave this game more than any other since March 8, 2011? (and that was a huge, huge disappointment let me tell ya) Action Jesus is a solid Hell Yes. But I want to see what the new art for the non-humans looks like. (I've always felt they were ... less than awesome.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
