I've heard people claim they might.

You're right.

Please remove all voice acting from future BioWare games so we can roleplay even further - like, we can even imagine how NPCs will react to us.

I know you're joking, but I just have to say: given that there's a seperate voice volume slider and a "always show subtitles" option...you could do this in Origins today. Hell, maybe the die-hard will do just that for DA2. I dunno.

Well, I was also considering how voice acting and cinematics can be a limiting factor in terms of writing.

If you guys were to make a game with no voice acting (or animations) at all, would there be less linearity and more content as a result?

EDIT: (In terms of story writing, that is)

Bioware's next RPG will consist of nothing more than a black screen.



You imagine everything that happens. The ultimate amount of freedom.



Retail price is $60, and reviewers believe it will get universal acclaim and be the game to top Ocarina of Time as the Highest Rated Video Game Ever.

[IronVanguard]

Pfft.

No no no. The next RPG of theirs will be Real Life. They'll used old EA tricks to patent it, they sell it to us by the millions.

Bioware will go crazy and make a roguelike

**** yeah, Bioware should make a NWN esque game except not because it would just be a fancy and easy to use version of RPG Maker. You can script the dialogues and everything yourself and it would be built to do so.

Lets get married. Right now, you and me.

Nothing slows down the pacings of a debate more than marriage proposals

[Wowlock]

You forgot the kneel before propose , that doesn't count !



Besides we should have a priest here. Someone call Revered Mother.

LPPrince is a mike hawke heretic, he would be cast into exile before his holiness grants an audience

[condiments1]

You go too soft OP, I dare Bioware to produce a experience such as this with their current system.

The only way that I can see this as a limiting factor in terms of storytelling is if it is limited by the budget (which it is, mostly likely). The only other thing it limits is the player being able to project themselves onto characters to an extent, which I gather some people like.

 Recall that before video games, every single piece of literature and writing was done in this more linear style, and some pretty damned good things were produced. Granted a video game will never be narrative in the same way a book is, as it has interactivity to replace that, but worrying about a more focused main character being a problem for storytelling seems kind of backwards to me.

Yeah!

Or what if they removed all audio and video from their future games so there would only be a black screen and we would just imagine our own story. Yeah, that would be awesome.

[IronVanguard]

I think DA:3, instead of scripted dialogue, should use an AI from each character, and you type out your responses and it's tone, that is then spoken through another AI running a text-to-voice program.

And your words and choices cause the NPC AI to change and react in a human-like, AI sort of way.

Mind you it may take a bit of quantum technology to produce it, but hey, that's nothing.

[Onyx Jaguar]

I see this black screen idea is catching on

You could say that you are the Dr. Frankenstein of Mike Hawke

No matter, it would just mean that you would be given a strict death rather than a gulag

Sten-"No. Ok maybe. Yes, very much so."

[Onyx Jaguar]

I meant to say swift death, but I like the sound of a strict death. Sounds fatal

I'm still disappointed that this topic wasn't what I at first expected it to be: an angry fan challenging Gaider to a write-off.



"I, Stalky24, hereby challenge thee, Davith Gaiderth, to a write-off. Does thou accept?"



That would've been so epic.

[IronVanguard]

Only if the challenger was good.

Quick, someone with talent challenge him! There can only be one!
