Thanks, 2013! Raven's Cry is a 2015 Role Playing Game (RPG for short) taking place in 17th century Caribbean (pronounced Caribbean). It follows the adventures of "Chris Raven", a pirate caught up in the crazy, mixed up world of the high seas and driven by vengeance. Chris's crew has been killed, and he means to get even with those what done the deed. The game follows the exploits of Chris as he shops around town for better boat things, buys rum (pirates love this), swashbuckles, and acts rogue-ish. The game boasts a rich skill tree to customize your pirate exactly the way you want, along with a combat system of sorts. Full voice acting, 360 degrees of movement, a plane of polygons whose vertices move in step with what would be considered similar to water waves along with water-like textures creating the illusion of water utilizing bits on a computer; it has everything! However, Raven's Cry has a metacritic rating of 29 out of 100. The patch notes tell an interesting story, one filled with missing voice files, spelling errors, and bugs that make the game unbeatable. Set sail for fun! I'm judge "Complications from Scurvy" reinhold, joined by my two first mates Diaper "Poop Deck" Chris and Major "'Why is my rum gone.' - John 'Captain Jack Sparrow' Depp" Tom, the Men Sailin' Seas. We will be posting video let's plays in a way befitting of a pirate: on YouTube! YarTube! In 60 FPS! Frames Pirate Second! We will be playing the unpatched 1.0 version for as long as possible, so join us, won't you, as we journey through this video game and meet all the colorful characters along the way. judge reinhold fucked around with this message at 21:42 on Jun 21, 2015 |

If Golden Compass taught me anything, it's that boats and any gameplay involving boats is going to end in disaster. Also that god is dead and a polar bear killed him or something.

The devs have been bombarding me with e-mails advertising this thing for about a year. Glad to see their proficiency in avoiding spam filters doesn't extend to game scripting.

I think you activated Chris' limit break. It's a little-known fact pirates could in fact use citrus and rum to overclock their body and bend reality, becoming a dervish of death. I hope it happens again so I can youtubedouble this music in: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nWU-ULmQj54 Seraphic Neoman fucked around with this message at 20:06 on Apr 3, 2015 |

Chris, the pirate. CHRIS. The pirate. You know, there's a reason why people remember Blackbeard the pirate and not Eddie the pirate. It's cause a normal-sounding name is not pirate-y enough.

Telekinetic murder and enemies who don't really want to fight you. This is going to be amazing, I can already tell.

I bet no pirate takes Chris Raven seriously based on his name alone.

goatface posted:rip Anthony From what I've seen of the game elsewhere I'd say it's not a contiguous world. Instead it's multiple large-ish zones separated by a map travel screen where you sail around (as an icon) and maybe run afoul of some enemies. So more like the original Fallout or maybe even the Wind Waker sequel they made for the DS? Not sure if you can just go anywhere you want or if you have to wait for locations to be unlocked.

The main guy's voice sounds like someone doing a frog impression (assuming the frog was a pirate with hook legs). I can't wait for Diaperbeard Chrisbeard to demonstrate his impressive boat captaining abilities again in the future.

gently caress this game is intense! Never have I seen so many cutscenes that just have a model walk to a point, stop for 10 seconds, and then suddenly start to do stuff. It's like somewhere off screen is a director yelling out 'Action!"

Chris Birdman must weigh the heavy cost of tipping over a paperweight symbolizing something I guess
