Unfortunately it only goes back six months on http://tools.garry.tv/steamchart/?show=240760&range=180 So we miss WL2 release by five days. But five days after release WL2 was #6.

While I get the concern there is really nothing anybody can say constructive on this topic until we actually play the game. Come back a few days after release and ask about this again.

Third World people playing this game have no problem coming up with names.

I always study the setting and find names that fit in reasonably well.

My understanding was that the Stronghold replaced the house. Like 'upgrade your house to a FULL STRONGHOLD' But it seems we do get both, and in the same place at that. Nice.

Why does it go up and down like some sort of sinusoidal function?

Awesome! Come on Obsidian!

Yep. Please do this once you get your hands on the actual game.

IWD was so much fun. I will always have a soft spot for my group of adventurers. Ah well.

Well thats messed up. Not happy. Release date has been the 26th of March for months. We are getting it on that day. Nothing to be unhappy about.

Yeah that was rather amazing. Don't we want people to post their custom pics here?

72 Hours to go!

Spoilers?

Man that takes me back. I definitely remember typing 'no pressure Obsidian' on these forums back then (back before I accidently locked my old account).

I tend to drink tea or coffee and eat grapes or apples. Fruit makes for nice gaming finger food. A few times when I was particularly addicted I have tried to eat meals while gaming and that never goes well.

English steals vocabulary from everybody. Anyway its use here is from Yiddish which means an honorable person, so since massive Jewish immigration from Eastern Europe to the United States.

Wow really? Nice!

Yeah I am doing hard mode as well.

The Blood Elves really had epic eyebrows.

Man this 'no romances' nonsense is just off the hook. These people have written some of the best PCs in history are you freaking kidding me? Man Chris Avellone makes a few self-deprecating jokes and rumor mill just goes insane. Obsidian cares obsessively and deeply about their PCs.

SW:TOR was a MMO so we are talking orders of magnitude greater amounts of content and variables. I don't think much can be directly mapped between the two genres. As for the marketing stuff well they are getting stuff out there to all the game bloggers...er...I mean press and various internet gaming personalities. Paradox is not going to be able to do things like take out TV ads and that sort of thing so that will have to do.

Sorry. Somebody lit up the Bioware-signal.

It was one of those plots that was awesome until they revealed more about it, then it just kept getting dumber. But that is true for a lot of plots. And I am referring to both ME and SC3 here.

Mass Effect was great for what it was. But it was not for me. I played the first one and the second one and knew it was going in a direction I didn't like. ME2 and Dragon Age Origins Awakenings are the last two Bioware games I plan on ever playing. Now that is not say that...wait did you just say Star Control 3 FTW? Oh dear God.

Again don't worry plenty of Bio fans still here.
