Interesting...I wonder what features of Dyso it will take, if any.

Funny how hyped it is? Why is it so funny, Mr. Inside Scoop?

@Mael:

go look at it it is hella hyped... i mean come on "core engine" ? LOL and also, it says the mod is under development by Dubisoft and other third parties (if you look at the credits they are jon and drudley) that is so freakin hyped lol

@Hurin:

Oh you know, the standard stuff... Emote wand... "mask of the gods" aka DM wand ... probably some annoying resting restrictions but i expect nothing really creative

Nah, if I was really picking on someone it'd be a lot more mean-spirited. This is more in line with a little parody and some deserved parody at that. Darkshadow, I've never seen you or the DF crew making any big claims or engaging in the hype-machine. I've not seen instances where you guys would make it a point to get into IM talks with folks about how great you are at module design and so forth. You guys have been pretty straightforward and "humble" in approach and thus most people could care less if you make a typo. The typos in this case are more an easy foil, but not the reason for behind it.

It's for all the unfinished and unrealized hype, glory and then running away and bailing out that came before. When you walk around tooting your own horn on how you're gonna make all other modules obsolete and then fail to deliver ... and then come back months later saying the same thing, but now with a new project (forget the old hype, this is the new real hype!) ... I can see where some people, myself included, would be skeptical at best.

You can't exist in that sort of super-hyped-up bubble talking about how you are the God of NWN Scripting and have one module you quit on, one you gave up on, and then start out with a third and expect the same rhetoric to still work. Were it not for all the big talk from before and then even more I've been shown leading up to this I'd really have no opinion on the whole thing at all other than "I wish him luck." I still do wish him luck ... but that doesn't mean I can't also say "gee, haven't I heard this all before?"

Hey ... it could all turn out to be true and maybe we should all quit working on our own projects now because we're really just wasting our time if it is. That is what all the written evidence would seem to indicate. Any takers or volunteers? I didn't think so.

Thanks for the explanation Conrad. I didn't mean that to be mean-spirited either, but just wanted to point out that nobody is perfect. I guess I have this habit of sticking up for people....maybe I'll try to be more cynical in the future

And if Gesh's project gets off the ground Im betting that it will have more players than yours and ours put together.

Hey Drud are you allowed to share any info of what you guys are testing?

If only they knew indeed!

Hahahaha, I am glad I stopped by to see how things are going here, still the same as always... regardless I'm not going to say anything, they can see when the time comes! But I can promise you one thing... its not hype. Not at all.
You'll see one day... until then... game on.

ok look, it IS a hype. It is developed by Dubisoft (aka Geshtal) and other third parties (aka you and drudely) theres one hype right there. next we have this "core engine" aka NWNX2 + some database and the "core engine" is mentioned a lot LOL theres 2, besides, as Conrad said, Gesh's previous work just wasnt what he cracked it up to be so what do you expect us to believe?

What are you talking about?

Dysotopia or Rebirth, 'cause Rebirth isnt really abandoned in a way, since he took everything he had made from it and put in Myhrr, so it's more or less just a name change.

Shadowleaf · Mon 11/10/03 5:02am

well maybe he did but its still really hyped

Maelstrom696969 · Lamer Joined: 18 Dec 2002 Posts: 1837

Sounds to me like some people might be a bit scared and/or intimidated about what's "comming"...

HAH!

I look forward to see what Myhrr, the same as I look forward to any MOD that has a hint of being interesting. Geshtal is good at a lot more than just scripting, when it comes to the realm of 'puters 'n' programming 'n' such.

I mean, jeez. God forbid that you might have some more people with good experience to swap info with, and - O! THE HORROR! - you might learn something!

Swap info with? Obviously you haven't tried working with Gesh...
Or other people that were supposed to work on the same project but ran off without a word. Apparently most mods developed are topsecret and swapping info carries the risk of building something worthwhile. Trying to combine two mods also erodes one sided-friendships and causes lower backpain from metallic objects jammed in there. Just a general healthwarning.

Shadow has there ever been a mod that you liked.... mostly all that i hear from you is that you are there for the people O_o... which is the only reason I went to Arkainia until I got griefed severly by some asshole who will remain unknown to the general public.
