Well-Actually War Trall Chessrook44 Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Extra Credits is an online video series hosted on PennyArcade's site that tends to talk about various gaming-related topics. Occasionally they do a bit called "Games you might not have tried" which looks at games that tend to fly under the radar and not get much attention. In the fourth episode (released today), they showcased Avernum amongst the other games they had. http://penny-arcade.com/patv/episode/games-you-might-not-have-tried-4 If you want to skip the rest of the games (Why would you?) skip ahead to 3:08.

Well-Actually War Trall Actaeon Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 I never thought of Spiderweb games as needing recent hardware before, but I suppose AEftP is pretty advanced by previous standards. Oh, crap. Play it cool, Dantius; here come the space cops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unflappable Drayk adc. Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Why not try keeping your system really, REALLY neat and tidy? Sorry, but I have that "Obsessive–compulsive personality disorder" problem, which makes me bothered when I see clutter. ------------ Anyway, try playing Avernum, You can tell back King Micah about killing Grah-hoth, because some ending just say you are a hero for centuries to come, so on, then the game finishes... But now, you can celebrate you victory by buying wines/beers that never affects you! ------------- -Ehhh... Nightwatcher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Student of Trinity Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Not having enough space can hardly be the problem. The problem is that there's too darn much space. We need to have a lot less. If Mars were within easy reach, for example, I could put all my old stuff there, and have more space in the basement. This would be better.

Half the reason I'm getting a new computer is because I had to play a SW game at anything other than the maximum graphics settings. Really, when that happens, you are obligated to upgrade.

I never even fathomed that a SW game would need to be adjusted to play right. I have an old, cheap laptop, and it plays A:EftP perfectly.
