Running on AGS, so the Mac port of the engine might work....

Actually, Gary can only record as fast as his fax machine prints out his script. So we're OK there.

The point of the narrative editor is to be able to edit the text in one central database for all the places it needs to be called from (translations, in-game, etc) on-the-fly. This means that if the voice actors come up with a better line, ad lib a bit, or changes need to be made last minute, that Scott and Mark can do so without going through multiple locations, avoiding possibly missing particular changes. Indeed, one reason we needed to update the narrative editor is that the old version made it easier for duplicate copies of a line to exist. It's not to edit text (that is being recorded; some text - like UI text - will not have voiceovers) after the voice actors get to it. The text likely won't be edited except for minor spelling/grammar fixes after VO is recorded.

I...what. What is going on here guys.

I'm guessing Tom Hardy is Vohaul, so who does that make Shatner?

Renegades doesn't look like Trek, if anything it sounds like Nemesis. Acting is a little overboard and writing could use a ton of work. Makeup is good but that doesn't make it Star Trek. Insurrection is basically an extended episode of TNG so I usually let it slide. First Contact is definitely good.

How do we keep getting on this subject? (Who knew that Space Quest fans were so polarized on the subject of feminism and political correctness?) Can we try to keep it on-topic here please? There is already a thread for the feminism and political correctness topic.

If I were a SpaceVenture programmer, I would sprinkle random nonsense throughout the code to keep the fans of 20 years from now amused. Oh wait...

Well, that and the fact that Roger was hanging out with Latex Babes by SQX suggests that their marriage didn't work out too well, for one reason or another. The arguments that VSB and Inc make seem as valid as any other in that context.

That's probably because the guy two posts above yours designed a lot of the animations in TSL but had nothing to do with Moebius ;) I helped kickstart Moebius, largely to help the adventure game revival along. I haven't played Moebius yet but didn't really get a good impression of POS's stuff when I played TSL, so I will probably give Moebius a pass as well.

Split the feminism and PC discussion to another thread. Carry on.

Or the robot from SQ4/SQ12 just shoots you.

To be fair, there is a bit more going on in that scene than is shown in the video (this won't be PlumberSim 9000). As Gareth said, the scenes shown have been carefully edited to not show spoilers, so you aren't seeing the whole thing. This is supposed to be a "typical" example of puzzles that the player might encounter, not an example of plot exposition.

No, they haven't specified.

@Decaffeinated Jedi just reminded me of the dystopian document thriller Papers, Please. I highly recommend it.

That somehow reminded me of "The Stanley Parable", a lovely little game which I recommend.

In the first post...

Pretty sure the issues are unnecessarily conflated. The author expects the Two Guys to be perfect and is shocked when they are real people. Then they criticize other journalists for not appreciating it when authors experiment with their games. Sounds like a double standard to me, but I don't think the author expected SpaceVenture to be an action game (or that they think it will be).

Nice find!

Uhh...where does it say KQ8 anywhere except the German releases?

You can toggle source code and type out the quote tags the old fashioned way. ;) Yep, absolutely.

That's from 2012...no it's not real.
