Painfully slow to open this page. Not nice to assume everyone has the same access as you do.

She looks younger than her WC1 representation, yet her hair is shorter. Maybe it just hasn't grown out yet. Definitely faithful to the original hair though. I like it. Nice touch keeping her favourite earrings.

Sorry for not knowing the industry lingo, but what is a 'bullshot'?

Maybe not a great idea to put so many large images in one post. That aside, the first few give pretty strong links to the original. Although the size of the car (assuming it's not a toy car as it seems the right size for the human slaves) throws of the sense of scale. The impression I have of...

Not overthinking, just confused by the mistake. Both Sharpshooter and I settled on 'betting' and you confirmed it, so that's the end of that. Sorry, I must have mis-read your original post, I thought you mentioned merchants but you didn't.

Interesting perspective! The meaning you mentioned is usually phrased as 'gambler' in English. The word 'better' is most commonly used to mean 'more good' than something else. But I think you've got it, as 'I am betting that this is what the final Drayman asset was initially designed to be...'...

I think this post needs fixing... The link in the original post is malformed, and also contains a typo 'earier'. I'm not sure what this is trying to say. But overall this is an interesting story. I remember on my very first play-through, I already felt a bit uncomfortable doing missions for...

Yeah, it's a bit of a mix. In Thrakhath's sprite below there's dithering applied to his shoulder armour pieces but the red cape has clear colour banding.

That's great to know. Just with the talk about open-source publication, I wasn't sure how much you had used from previous efforts. At least from my perspective, the concept of sharing efforts in open-source is a relatively recent idea. Most people just want the binaries to use so it sort of...

I recall in the early days of our community, HCl and others did a lot of work in reverse-engineering and extracting information from the game files across the series. However, I recall those efforts were largely distributed in closed binaries (though I do remember seeing a bit of documentation...

I didn't notice that. Reference to intro scene: https://www.wcnews.com/news/update/7376/

Apparently not. I think I found links to the games on the EA site via the PC Gaming Wiki. As for the sale generally, I mainly noticed because EA games on Steam were being advertised as a 'publisher sale', 'up to 90% off'.

A scan of the poll archive suggests yes, but then it looks like it was only a poll option three times.

I noticed this only a few days ago, but I didn't see any 'sale' price on my web page (browsing from Australia). I thought this was the 'new' EA price. Otherwise I would have thought to mention it here. It's a pity the EA application is such a poor experience compared even with Origin. Since the...

So there are references in Privateer 2 as well? I never noticed that either, but then I don't recall if I got into the random missions that much.

Thank you for this in-depth catalogue. I appreciate VGM more than some and I have actually become interested in some games solely from musical first-impressions, albeit that wasn't the case for me with WC.

What? Really? That's an odd thing to gripe about.

I do remember that scene, and it's a shame that implied benefit never got implemented as a counter to the Speradon path. Still, a fascinating story about an otherwise-forgotten side character/actress, thanks for the analysis.

Oh my, I don't think I ever made that connection for ESK... nice!

Am I right in understanding the extensions to the background images to support wide aspect ratios are not from the original data? At first glance I thought they were...
