Temple of Elemental Evil (Gameplay #2) (HQ Test Video)

One of the first gameplay videos I uploaded (on the 23rd of March 2008, to be precise) was "Temple of Elemental Evil, Gameplay #1". To this very day it remains by far the most popular video on this channel (about 11,000 views at the time of writing); despite lacking both sound, high resolution and HD format. Now, a year later, I thought I'd follow up my classic "Gameplay #1" with a few more TOEE clips.

This first one is simply a test of my computer's ability to record the game in 1024*768 with FRAPS and, as you can perhaps tell, I'm using a generic party assembled from the characters which come with the game. For the purposes of future videos I'll obviously be creating my own party.

does this game let you pause during play and plan your attack like bg and iwd

[Demiath]

@iFullMetalJacket It does much more than that; it's completely turn-based so there is no need for a pause option.

we went from classic games like this and baldurs gate to simple minded spoon fed crap like dragon age. Dragon Age is as deep as a kiddie pool and as easy as a crackhead whore on friday night.

@dwaynedibbly Well, the original release simply had lots of bugs and poorly implemented rules. The gameplay in both the patched and the unpatched version is identical, though, so adjusting to a fairly slow-paced turn-based style is something you'd have to do in either case...

Elmo and Otis FTW!

@Demiath care to explain why you wouldnt want to? I just started playing toee myself and I am still trying to get accustomed to this slow turn based style

fuck those fucking frogs

The changes are WAY too many for me to even begin to describe here (the list of fixes takes up about 20 pages in the release notes). It's simply a massive mod that gives you both better stability (=fewer crashes) as well as improved gameplay.

Thanks man. Also if you could give a small description of the changes ? ^_^

[Demiath]

It's not difficult to find via Google but I'll post the link in the video description.
