Bill Bisco Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 So one of the ads for Black Wyrm Lair led us to this site: http://www.blackgeyser.com/ It looks like Baronius is behind it via this site: https://sites.google.com/site/towerofbaronius/ At any rate, it's very cool to see another Baldur's Gate inspired game in the works. I hope this can be successful! Link to comment

Cahir Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 What's with Baronius anyway? I see a lot of hate towards the guy... Is it something he did few years back? It must be, cause he's not very active lately AFAIK. Link to comment
lynx Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 Just forget about it, nothing to bring up. Link to comment
Jarno Mikkola Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 What's with Baronius anyway? I see a lot of hate towards the guy... Is it something he did few years back? It must be, cause he's not very active lately AFAIK.Hopefully this is nearly impartial... but it's not. Understand, none of the answer to this are. So take them with a proper amount of salt. There's the forum flames wars he was involved, which all feel nice and all that, not. And there's the Improved Anvil defense he was organizing, which includes waging war against the G3's BG2Fixpack, and that sort of stuff. Refusing to(and encouraging people to not) update to later versions of weidu.exe just cause Weimer checked out of the mod making community, and somebody else had to do it, so the community split .... And one time locking most of the BlackWormLair's forum content behind a series of pre-payment requiring forums walls. He has done good too, it's not all bad, but you won't hear that much about that.

Almateria Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Also, the Improved Anvil mod is probably the only mod worse than Saerileth. Link to comment
jastey Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Wow, this is impressive. Differences aside, I wish him best of luck with this (and I am jealous about his courage! :-) )! Link to comment
cmorgan Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Two words... "Derek Smart" Edit: sorry - I'm an old guy - reminiscing about comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.strategic on the early usenet - and I am not as nice and forgiving as Jastey is. referent: urbandictionary now has some very unsavory links. Taking down the link immediately. sorry. I do wish him well creating a legitimate stand alone game. The Grey Clan Episode 1 was one of my favorite additions back in the day. Perhaps he can get cash from it. Link to comment
Graoumf Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 I would prefer to see The Broken Hourglass released. Welcome back cmorgan! Link to comment
cmorgan Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Heya, Graoumf! I would really like that too. Link to comment
InKal Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Also, the Improved Anvil mod is probably the only mod worse than Saerileth. hahahhaha ;DD seriously, no. it's not that bad. ;] Link to comment
phordicus Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 IA is only what Weimer's Tactics would have become if he (W) had kept updating. It's not "tactics"; it's "how can I exploit the rules for cheese". Fortunately, there are still modders who abuse the engine and scripting limitations and call it "strategy", so min/max'ers can rejoice! Link to comment
