Infestation: OVERRUN - massive G2 mod (v1.02)
Aleister replied to Mea Tulpa's topic in Geneforge Series - Remasters
Really looking forward to playing this Mod. Currently working my way through a guardian playthrough, really enjoying the weapon shaping feature. Think that was a genius and well balanced addition on Jeff's part. Next playthrough I'm gonna use this Mod and play as a Shaper, really looking forward to the team building possibilities now I'm not limited to one shaping class while still being optimal. -

This is also an incredible resource: https://spiderwebforums.ipbhost.com/topic/26276-geneforge-1-index-spoilers/#comment-314738 -
Oh but what a glorious meme it is: https://www.reddit.com/r/virginvschad/comments/c0dff4/the_virgin_rebel_vs_the_chad_shaper_geneforge/

I apologize if this has been answered elsewhere, but does anyone know how to change the default attack from firebolt to for example searer? I know it was automatic in the old games but I cant figure out how to do it here. Thanks in advance

Geneforge 1 - Mutagen Graphics MOD
Aleister replied to mercy's topic in Geneforge Series - Remasters
That looks awesome, I love the blue! -
I didn't back the project but I would be interested in hearing what people who did added
-
Just finished up playing my first session of the demo now, the game looks great, really enjoying the slightly expanded on story elements and small extra additions. Feels nostalgic and fresh at the same time and I love it. Safe to say I'm super excited for the full version 👏

Jeff Vogel on the latest geneforge September update: " Over the next few months, as game systems get tested and finalized, we'll start talking about how Geneforge 1 - Mutagen will work. There are many changes between the original series and the remaster, and it will be fun to finally reveal some secrets. " The second line is what caught my attention. I know its an EXTREEMLY general statement but considering the identity of the GF5 protagonist is one of, if not the most, highly debated mystery in the series we were never given an official answer too, it would make a lot of sense if he would be including an answer to this in his reveals. Pity we'll still have to wait another half decade+ before GF5 remaster is released 🤣

If u get addicted to taking canisters like I did on my first playthrough the rebels side looks very attractive

[GF1-M]: The non-spoiler thread about Geneforge Mutagen
Aleister replied to alhoon's topic in Geneforge Series - Remasters
I'm so excited for this game. My biggest hope for it is that Jeff doesn't go too overboard on the changes because for me the nostalgia is what I'm most looking forwards too but I doubt he'll change too much. What else would be awesome is establishing a more concurrent lore. I know it's messy with multiple endings and all but as an example What do you guys think? Should Jeff pick a victory from each previous game and run with it on the next one of should he continue mixing whats "canon" up? -
Kickstarter has already reached almost 70k at the time of me posting this, at 75k we get the whole new area with quest chains etc. Needless to say I am heaps happy at the response this kickstarter has gotten and glad all the reward tiers are (almost definately) going to be met. I wonder what the new creation is going to be? And how many creations will be in game without the bonus. Just the OG 3 from each tier or will he include later game introduced ones like wingbolts and rhotgaroths

Really don't like the delayed damage with the animation, in the old versions the character would take damage upon being hit, now from the teaser there's a pause after the attack animation has passed through the target and then disappeared before the damage loads/appears. Also really don't like the softer art style, less hard straight lines and more curves. Seems like the arts just been copied over from avernum remakes and I dread the idea of the creations just copying over from monsters in there other games like drakons becoming avernum dragons etc. Please keep the unique quirks that get lost in the remakes so far. The video makes it look like we're going to be playing in an entirely different world and I hope he keeps most things looking the same just cleaned up a bit.

%100 agreed

Awesome, been looking forwards to this for a long time. Not sure about the name "Mutagen" though. Isn't that from ninja turtles lmao? Should rename it something more epic sounding in my opinion.

I have all of them, if you send me a message with your email I'll send them to u 👍

The only thing I don't like about this is that it means that Alwan and Greta spent both less time together and with the player. What your saying here makes sense, certainly simpler then what I've proposed. The reason I went with switching on the next island is because it allowed more time for the player to gain and use more canisters. Which makes their going mad more believable. Swapping sides earlier when they had more sanity would be less consistent with the nature of the player - at least as far as my version of the story goes. Edit: I just finished a play through of GF3 where I tested to see if this is even doable - it is. I destroyed the spawner on Greenwood Isle, helped the shaper on Harmony Isle, destroyed the spawner on Dhonals Isle, and arrived on gull island with the rebels initially hostile. There is a servile in the caverns of Gull Island that can put in good word for you and allow you to go to stonespire and receive the quest to kill kryryk. You can alternatively just kill him without recieving the quest and the rebels on gull island will still go friendly and give you access to the docks. Doing this will grant you access to the docks in Khors deep and travel to the Isle of Spears where you can join the rebels. Reguardless of how many times you undid their work on previous islands. Greta leaves you at the docks after destroying the spawner on Dhonals Isle and Alwan leaves you at the docks on your way to The Isle of Spears if you killed Kryryk.

I'm not saying you can't say anything, I'm just saying keep in mind (etc.). Although I do see the potential contradictions with me asking for feedback - and within that criticism - that I will defend, without turning it into a debate. I was trying to avoid debating the topic as it has been done previously on multiple threads. Alas you can't have your cake and eat it too.

Doesn't he? I thought that no matter the actions of the player if you want the rebel ending you have to kill him? And "canonically" the ending for g3 is the rebel ending? So how is it possible for him to be alive other then an inconsistency in the games? I agree that it is possible for any random who was modified and met Litalia, Greta and Alwan to be who sage lara is talking about. But what would be the point in that? Throw in all this suggestive information and go through all the effort scripting clues into the games just to go - nope, actually ur some random. Suggestive information is all we have to work off. Just because it isn't concrete or their can be alternatives means little. I feel the need to say again: This is just a theory, it's a flawed yet convincing look at the events I personally think transpired in order for the gf3 = gf5 main character add up. We could go back and forwards over the alternative possibilities and minor hiccups. But thats all been done before. I'm offering and vouching for a perspective. That doesnt mean I'm discrediting anyone elses. It is up to the individual to agree or disagree, so long as all the facts are accounted for, as I have attempted to do.

Awfully convenient hypothesis considering everything we know about the geneforge 3 narrative. Sounds a lot more like a vague recollection then a random stab in the dark. Edit: Not trying to sound overly critical of anyone's opinions or thoughts! Just try to understand that this theory is something I'm invested in, so I'm going to defend it in the absence of evidence to dispute it. Keen to hear what everyone has to say. Just as long as you aren't being overly critical for the sake of it. I know that it isn't bulletproof, but in a world where Khyryk's get ripped to shreds and dissolves only to reappear in the next game, and whole continents cease to exist across games we can only do what we can do

1) Ah my bad, although I did state at the start that this whole thing was just my theory. 2) Like you said, the GF3 protagonist fits this the most closely. And imo makes for the most interesting story. Besides have u read the bit about Sage Lara? What she has to say doesn't exactly leave room open for it to be anyone other then a previous games protagonist.
