Yes! I've still got that rules book somewhere around here. Never played it but I loved the art and just reading through it.

Biomutant reads a bit like "Cybercomputer", lol it's a little redundant.
But it's not like I don't get they want to differentiate it from the countless mutants in games and pop culture.

Ok this came out of nowhere and looks fresh and interesting.
Looking forward to seeing more of it.

Damn I'd be willing to buy games which looked like that and BioMutant.Yeah, especially the After the bomb stuff:

You both make me so happy. Those are names I haven't heard/read, since my friends and I played this stuff in middle school!
Anyway...I couldn't be anymore "in" for this, if I tried. Simply because this game reminds me so much of these tabletop games!

That's awesome. I used to just roll and create so many mutant characters. Never had anyone who wanted to play though lol. Lost that book in a move or 2 ago. Shame...
Yeah, especially the After the bomb stuff:
Cheers to all of you who remember this! I thought I would be the only one to remember! Great stuff

Holyshit that protag looks INCREDIBLE

I know I mentioned Thundercats earlier but this even further fuels my desires because it reminds me of Castle Plun-Darr background art. Someone please make a TC game!Yeah, especially the After the bomb stuff:
I dunno. While it's cheesy and seemingly lazy, it also kinda fits if a certain amount of cheesiness is what they are going for. How it reads to me is this: a piss-take on genre standards that doesn't take itself too seriously.

Does it mean "not"? Because it might be a clever way to get people interested b/c of open world action rpg but ends up being a hidden items visual novel game lol.
I don't seriously think it means "not", just so it's clear haha.
It's definitely a breath of fresh air. If the gameplay is also unique then I'm in.

So, from his outfit, at least we can see that:
- his right eye can probably do some tricks (like detective mode or some sort)
- his main weapon is a melee weapon (the sword is maybe just one of many varieties)
- he has a secondary ranged weapon with various ammo types
- there's a cricket buddy that can be used for spying
- he can swim and glide (?)

I keep thinking of the eye patch wearing weasel from that Dawn of Dinosaurs Ice Age movie when I see that scan.

I want to be interested in this, but all I can think about is when the fuck did "Protag" become the cool way to refer to a title's protagonist?

like you've never heard people shortening it to Protag?
If you don't know his/her name do you want to type "protagonist" or "lead character" every fucking time?
I live pretty well with the long-dead super magical Romes of JRPG and I don't really get tired of it--I just sort of accept it, like the beautiful, magical artifacts it leaves behind, and move on. I do kind of wish the west would get over our world as the previous, dead world thing though. IDK why post-apocalyptic does sour initial impressions for me a bit now and that other similar trope above doesn't.
(I do end up enjoying plenty of post-apocalyptic content--I just wish people'd move past it).

Lmao. Good ol Brian Jacques.
Great series of books.
Bought the whole collection when Brian Jacques passed away~~~
I've wanted to go back and read a few of the books I really loved but a little worried they won't hold up well as an adult. I devoured those books as a kid.

Yeah, sure. I'm down with this idea. Need to see it in motion though. The developer is headed up by an ex-Avalanche lead.
