  1. He also wrote Planescape Torment, which is an RPG but has tons of dialogue and narration not unlike a book. It was even jokingly added to VNDB 7 days ago.

  2. Whoa! While I might not recognized the other writers, You mentioned just Chris Avellone among them. That guy usually only write stuffs for RPGs! Have you played the Infinity Engine games, Pillars of Eternity, Or Pathfinder Kingmaker by any chance?

  3. Yeah Steam decided to tag the Steam version as Adult and with that it is out for german customers, even though the game is censored on Steam. But there is the option to buy from Mangagamer without an creditcard. You can mail to [email protected] to ask for payment though PayPal. You just need a Mangagamer account and Paypal for this.

  4. Planescape Torment in VNDB?! The Hell?! Really?! Is that for real?! Never heard of that until now lol! And here I though most VN/Eroge readers/players are anime weebs who just transitioned to playing/reading anime games. Glad to know I was wrong lol! Anyways... Planescape Torment, despite being a RPG, it has less combat and you'll spend most of the time reading. I think Planescape Torment is the game that solidified Chris Avellone being a great writer in the CRPG community making himself a name. It's one of the few games in its time that is narrative heavy. It even rivals Baldur's Gate in scope of its writing. however Baldur's Gate is tons much more fun to play than Planescape Torment, since its not successful financially but it does have a cult classic status. of all the Infinity Engine games, Planescape Torment is the only game that I wasn't able to complete since its too much narrative heavy for my liking as a kid back then, and I'll rather read an actual book than read stuffs on the PC not that I hate reading... Planescape Torment lacks character customization which is such a let down, that's why prefer playing Baldur's Gate or Icewind Dale series any time of the day. A great CRPG should be balanced containing decent amounts of both gameplay and narrative. having too much of the other only makes an CRPG dull and boring... Hmm... too bad Chris Avellone is no longer with Obsidian Entertainment due to personal differences. nevertheless he still works as a freelance writer. he even wrote stuffs for Pathfinder Kingmaker and its upcoming sequel Wrath Of The Righteous. I think he also wrote some stuff and design some levels in Wasteland 2. Such a great guy! So Planescape Torment the only game from Chris Avellone that you've played so far?
