TSE1 was okay, but TSE2 is much better. The whole sidescrolling thing is less noticeable in the sequel primarily because you can run instead of walk, which reduces travel time between combats by a huge amount. There are many other improvements of course, not the least of which being major additions to the battle system that make it easier to control your characters, but if I would list everything that’s better in TSE2 this post would be ridiculously long.

I guess what I’m saying is that even if you thought TSE1 was a terrible game, the sequel is still worth checking out, because in terms of quality they’re in entirely different leagues.

What’s up, exxxtreme motion sickness gaming buddy? Log in to see images!

I have to take dramamine to play video games and I didn’t used to. Planescape’s 2D and story-heavy/combat-light.

God yes, it is awful. Log in to see images!

Still, it’s not a lot of money considering that it’s, y’know, Planescape Torment. I’d buy it at that price if I hadn’t completed it already. It’s worth more.

In other news, I need to mention The Spirit Engine 2 in this thread, because I can never recommend it enough. It’s a great game that has basically not been marketed at all, which is why you’ve never heard of it before. Did I mention that it’s a great game? Go download the demo here.

I’m very torn here. Normally I would follow the recommendation of a guy with as much Planescape cred as you without hesitation but then I hear Amasius say side scroller and I have to wonder if your brain is malfunctioning.

Well I recently *ahem* “got” borderlands and it’s been filling my needs quite nicely even at 8 FPS. About TSE2, does it have a demo? I’d like to try it out first, but I can’t get the site to load. =/
