in Planescape: Torment: Enhanced Edition
On April 3rd, 4 PM PDT we go live on Twitch with the one and only Chris Avellone, Lead Designer on Planescape: Torment and now Planescape: Torment: Enhanced Edition. Beamdog’s Lead Producer Phillip Daigle, will be joining Chris for an evening of RPG fun where we show off classic Planescape locations alongside all the new improvements that PST:EE has to offer.

The PST:EE team will be in the chat to answer your questions and give away prizes as Chris Avellone talks about his experience on Planescape: Torment: Enhanced Edition and the original Planescape: Torment.

    Fingers crossed there will be cosplay during the twitch. My sheringan have the perfect picture:
    Chris Avellone as Ignus and Phillip Daigle as Morte. Maybe Trent Oster as The Nameless One to round things up.

    ... I wonder if someone can even manage to pull off a Nordom cosplay as well. :wink:

    And he mentioned working with Beamdog on something else secret! I'm intrigued...

    "CA - The high Wisdom response at the end of the game is the “true” one (and there’s an Achievement for it to boot, in case there was any doubt)."

    Wisdom confirmed OP Beamdog pls nerf

    I'd like to but it's almost midnight here, I had to go to sleep :(

    Will we be able to watch the replay on twitch ?
    Looks like you're talking while sleeping.

    We will see what we can do.

    This went really well. Lots of prizes, lots of anecdotes, lots of questions, lots of cool spell animations.

    Did Phil once again spoil some nice little surprise like last time with
    the SoD stream and the death of Nüber
    :D

    I think this time they have warned beforehand each time they have been going to show a spoiler.

    At first this scene shows up so I thought it is gone now, and I am too late but it was not hopefully.



    Chris Avellone's build is true classic and I like it :smile:

    Nice poster, I want one! Might they go on sale somewhere? Who's the dev in the pic signing away?

    After watching that stream I'm now convinced Beamdog are working on a 5th Edition game in Planescape setting. How many times, since the PST:EE announcement, have I heard mention of how great a setting it is and what a shame it would be to see it go to waste? I read it in interviews and heard it again in that stream.

    Nearing the end of the stream I'm already thinking, wow, they are dropping massive hints about this setting continuing on. Then what really clinched it for me was at the end. Chris mentions how Nameless one can change his class at will and Phil responds that's how 5th Edition ended up being anyways, stacking levels. I guess we'll just have to port PS:T to 5th Edition or something.

    Or something?!? ha! I've totally convinced myself they are doing a brand new game in Planescape! :p

    Watching this made me want to play the game again. But probably won't do it just out of the notion that playing something I haven't played before is better than replaying a game I finished before (even though I haven't experienced all it had to offer).

    I've just finished to watch the livestream. I didn't understand too much, but it appears to me they just explained the game to new players. I liked the tablet UI and the observation that Planescape and Sanitarium are coeval; but I didn't liked they didn't legitimize the JRPG elements (magic clips; random encounter...) saying only they are awesome.
