    What's with Bethesda games and their prison fetish?

    Prisons are simply one of several ways to implement blank slate pasts, a way to explain why protagonists start with the worst weapons, have to fight the weakest enemies first and are ignorant of current news.
    It's the same like the "backwater farmer" in many RPGs or the "loser stuck in a dead-end job" in a lot of modern fiction.

    Arkane Studios is developing it...and they made Arx Fatalis begin in a prison even though they were not owned by Bethesda. Anyway, I can't wait. This game has the potential to become a classic.

    But a tesla gun is so much more efficient....

    "So.....you managed to create steam/magic powered walkers but decided to mount an archer on it?"

    Esp for crowd control......

    Why not a flame thrower or a tesla chain lightening generator.....

    That'd be alot cooler than an archer....



    Just feels odd, I'm pretty sure the idea was us viewers were suppose to be like "dude that's bad ass, telsa bow walkers!"

    but for me I couldn't take them seriously.....

    Mainly cause the "hero" seemed like a very practical professional, the enemies just looked like goofy impractical peacocks.....

    Still I'm gonna look forward to slapping around these peacocks

    Screenshots look pretty neat, makes me think a lot of the style of BioShock infinite at least in the environments. In fact the characters look pretty BioShock-y too. So do the weapons, I like the style but it's a bit uncanny.

    Perhaps the mask?

    Either way that's pretty sweet box art. I hope they use it for console editions as well.
