    For the record, Steampunk Fruit Fuckers are awesome.

    That is sufficient for me to have faith in this noble endeavor.

    Godspeed, Gabriel.

    Oh....god.

    That would be the gayest shit. I'd rather control the more ridiculous characters than two characters who sit around playing video games. CTS etc. would be better.

    you just like CTS because you're a weeaboo

    I would much prefer Twisp and Catsby

    Oh suck a fuck, dogg
    It was just one of many examples, and Twisp and Catsby fall into the category of the more ridiculous characters.

    I was just listing some randoms really.

    CTS would be glorious, I couldn't agree more. Though, I do have a hard time wrapping my head around how he fits in a steam punk/lovecraft universe. Could be good though.

    there are no voices. We are using text bubbles like an old school RPG.

    The game is in 3D and is an RPG/adventure. We're not going for next gen graphics here, but it will look cool I think.

    I completely endorse this project with many American dollars. Plus, I'm really looking forward to seeing you guys in some steampunk.

    What I want to know is if there's anything in the works for the good Doctor and his evil spawn side-kick.

    A graphic novel...a book...anything. It's my favorite character, well, besides Frank. Frank is my dad if he worked at EBX. The 'Nam wasn't kind to either of them.

    Honestly, Dr. Raven Darktalon Blood is much more amusing as a concept that he would be with a dedicated storyline. It's the implied cliche story that is his strength.

    Annarchy will be a tomboyish character who sells papers on the corner shouting "Ex-tree! Ex-tree!" She'll probably carry a slingshot. This is how I see her.
    Also, one part of the story should involve a private investigator. All early-20th century stories worth a damn have a private eye.

    Private dick.

    If any story were actually made it would just drag the character down.

    It's satire. Satire is funny. Like the Elementstor Saga, it's meant to poke fun at something that's really out there and people take super seriously.

    The 1920s is hardly steampunk. Steampunk is like turn of the century end of the 1800s. Private eyes are much better in a post WWI setting.

    Not particularly. However, none of them really do. The art we've seen seems to indicate we'll see the characters outside of how we actually know them. To me, at least, that leaves it open for any of them to make an appearance.

    I think it's important that everyone understand that this isn't a game based around the comic, but that it will feature alternate versions of several of the comic's characters.

    I wonder how many references to old comics there'll be?


    Such as:
    The middle panel
    20060104h.jpg

    That middle panel is probably my favoritist thing ever to come out of the comic. Like, I still remember how hard I laughed when I first saw it and the memory is so strong that I start laughing again simply from remembering my jubilent howls. It's like happiness incarnate.

    Also, I'm excited to see how this game turns out. Although since it's episodic I'm going to have to debate buying each episode or waiting for a compilation (assuming there will be such a thing).

    I used to use that middle panel as a counterstrike spray. Someone post the film noir comic where Tycho debates offing himself.

    Give it time, the 3/4 isometric view looks fine with the current models. So long as they don't have many cut-scenes with close-ups on the faces this will still work. The Fruit Fucker is perfect though, aces on that one. Just waiting on the big iron versions with the rivets.

    To toss in my .05 worth, I think the biggest potential threat to this game being decent is them listening too closely to their fans and changing the game repeatedly to match what they think the fans want. If I were them I'd stay away from this thread like the plague and just focus on their vision for the game and it will either work or it won't. Actually listening to the drooling masses (including myself) is a recipe for almost certain disaster if they try to adopt and accomodate the wishlists of their fans.

    Stick to their vision, trust their own creativity, and let it sink or swim on it's own merit. Ain't no shame in failing on those terms and it's more likely to be good anyway.
