  • Temple of Elemental Etc

    So... I need the assistance of those 'polytoner who always have thier finger on the pulse. When is this excellent looking game coming out in :

    a) The US version in the US
    b) The US version to export
    c) The UK version
    d) The German version.

    Because.... I'm dying to play it, and I need to know if I should order from the US, order from the UK, wait for an export version here in Schwabia, or just wat longer and get the German translation (and wait forever for patches too)

    Did I mention I'm DYING to play it?

    Yes, I checked the offical web-site, and the "Infogrammes Atari" forums, but they were soooooo vague. Does anyone actually know when its coming? I heard the end of September...?

    Icould have sworn I saw another thread about this. This is a computer adaptation of a 1st edition DnD campaign, right?

        Yeah, I thought there'd been a thread about it too.... perhaps its simply a thread on another topic that got hijacked, co I couldn't find it.

        So... tommorrow in the US, means I could get it posted to here by the weekend... at a "small cost." No news about Europe yet though

        Harry, its a adaption of a very old campgain for 1stEd rules, updated to 3.5Ed rules, and is promising to be the best thing since BG2... we shall see, eh? It has to be better than IWD2 and PoR2.... (not that I'm bashing those games, I played them to death, but...)

        Temple of EE is unusual in that it features the return of turnbased combat (as it should be) and alignments that really make a difference (they say)

          I may check it out. I haven't had a really good DnD game in a long while.

                  This is pretty cool, and I hope this signals the beginning of a trend where they adapt those old modules.

                  I can remember lots of those great old modules when I first started playing at 11. Keep on the borderlands, Tomb of Horrors, Queen of the Demonweb Pits.

                      Hmmm, could be worth a try.... awfully huge download though, and if I unlock it, then I still won't have the game CDs.... but perhaps...

                        Just been looking on the Atari forums. Looks like another MoO3 folks, talked up to be wonderful, with so many cool features great graphics, increadable never-done-before-in-a-game-stuff etc. but all the comments on the forums are REALLY negative. For some reason Atari wanted a teen rating, so all the children were cut from the game (although the quests and dialogue relating to them was left in - must have been last minute) Also many interface problems reported like changing spells to be memorised is fussy and hard to get at, the game has no containers, so you run out of room to carry stuff quickly, potions cost more to identify than to buy an identified one in the shop, no mini-map, runs slowly even on high-end computers. I'll give a personal opinion when (if) this demo ever finishes downloading, but after reading through on the Atari boards, I'm not so optimistic about the game any more.

                          The comments in game forums are always really negative. The week after the game comes out 99% of the people who enjoy it are too busy playing it to go and argue with whiners on some forum.

                          Ignore everyone and play the demo for yourself is always the best policy.

                              Indeed it does, and there's the same feeling on the Atari ToEE boards now, as there was on the Atari MoO3 boards then... the game was hyped, and then didn't deliver (enough). What can you do?
