Since we're dreaming here, how about making the stuck arrows work as a handle and allow for tripping the zed? Simple ragdoll. Would work for regaining range, somewhat fitting the archer playstyle. Of course would be reasonable to think of it as a secondary attack, but if we get those, a kick /...

The editing of the animations is not in the proposal; if you want to propose that, do so first, and then argue the merits. I'll count that as a proposal, this time. If they are to edit the animations to prevent, and thus replace, a machete swing, the damage can freely be made similar to a...

You are, though?

Oh, lol. Been playing werd for two decades, s and f being the "main use" buttons; sometimes I confuse them with defaults :P

Unless the mechanics are significantly changed, both. Tap F while clicking the face.

Icon?

I would miserably fail to define "art" in a way that would encompass everything that is considered* art, but not most of engineering. Luckily I don't have to ... :) *bananas taped to a wall

All of that is rather impossible to define. The first part is about "greed", but you also lump in "satisfying investors" - if investors aren't getting results, they won't invest, and thus there's no funding. No AI. Where that turns into greed is essentially a personal opinion, and can't really...

/facepalm /WTH If I left that as my reply, that'd be rather obviously .. unfriendly. But since this is a meta-comment, you'll have to decide at what level to apply that at, and for any counter-troll-measures out there: I'm just reminding him of his responses. Obviously. ;)

Heh, it's going to be an eternal struggle. Smart people might not buy slop; but if the slop is cheap enough to make, enough people will. Slop will prevail, whether we call it "mods" or "dlc".

Bash, silly, it's obviously Bourne Again Shell. That should help, right? :P

That part is expensive, at least for now, but pre-generating a massive discussion tree for every NPC would probably be well within a reasonable dev budget. Quality of writing? Ehh, the competition isn't too fierce in triple A atm .. :)

I think whenever an experimental is made stable, the selection "sticks" to stable. Only if you have several builds within an experimental (2.4 b1, 2.4 b3 etc) will you have an experimental selection update as experimental. Or something to that effect - probably also up to "whatever TFP is...

Latest experimental was the 2.4; as it was made stable, there is no experimental right now. At least my news feed doesn't mention a 2.5 exp being pushed.
