    While the infographic certainly gets its point across I don’t understand why the author felt the need to use a slur in the name calling section. Feels very unnecessary when literally any insult would have worked like arsehole or even something simple like idiot or moron.

    Edit: I’ve struck-through my ableist language as opposed to outright deleting it as to not try to deny any wrongdoing.









  • Ah ok, I’ve never been on Codex before so didn’t realise they had mechanisms in place to verify such things. Thanks for pointing that out. Trusting that Codex have done their due dilligence then you’re probably right that Obsidian are just one of those companies that uses pre-alpha/alpha differently.

    With what the dev has said in that thread it makes me think their 2024 release date probably means an Autumn/Holiday release window rather than early-mid 2024 then.




  • Is there any proof this guy is actually an obsidian dev? I don’t just want to take his word for it. Especially when he says the game is still not in alpha when any game dev would know that traditionally an alpha is just any early stages of development upto when you start adding art or fleshing out the meat of the game. In alpha you are prototyping movement and gameplay mechanics in dev environments. Anything after that is beta. Only PR teams and consumers think of alpha and betas as basically a finished product that is ready to be tested and polished.
