Re: Suggestion regarding enemy/NPC behaviour

I'm not sure if this was mentioned before but I think someone mentioned the possibility of the AI having weapons (naturally) but some of them, trying to prove how tough they are, will duke it out with Turner hand to hand if he's not wielding a weapon. if turner draws his own weapon though, the othe...

Re: My idea, better than any other

Am I the only one here who dislikes the bodybuilders-and-supermodels-fighting-in-their-underwear aesthetics found in so many computer games?

Considering that OG doesn't/won't feature humans, it would be nice if it could be free of that crap.

Perhaps there could be a way(s) for the player to instigate NPC fights.
Getting chased by wolves? Just lead them to a rabbit outpost then slip away and watch the carnage from a distance.

Re: Why There Absolutely Can Not be a Mouse Faction

I for one rather enjoyed reading the Redwall books as a kid. (Come to think of it, isn't that fellow still churning them out?) The resemblances between OG and Redwall don't strike me as something to worry about. The major similarities: 1. Anthropomorphic violence. 2. Pre-gunpowder technology. 3. Som...

Suggestion regarding enemy/NPC behaviour

Apologies for the looong post. I'm only ever concise when the occasion calls for verbosity. One thing that has always disappointed me in all computer games - be they FPSs, RPGs, you name it - is the very simplistic behaviour displayed by non-player characters (NPCs), enemies in particular. The gener...

It may be of interest to you folks that a couple of the ideas suggested here are already planned features of the game. In particular, the idea that each level/area should have multiple solutions. Hmm, lets see. Other stuff that would be extremely cool: - A spiked chain or flail weapon. This could go...
