No offense, but in the eyes of most people here, that is what you do. Including your statement that everyone's an idiot. As you can see in the other thread about the magic system, in which you commented too, the more reasonable you are, the more reasonable are the answers. But this thread here was aggressive from the beginning. You list things that you don't like and make baseless accusations directed towards Obsidian. It's not a discussion, it is a bait for people to complain about Obsidian. Now they complain about you and it's your own fault, because you set the tone. I for one will not leave any useful response here. I'll do that on the other thread.

I like per rest as well. I understand your reasons for liking it, as I share that opinion. It was discussed more than one time. I even engaged in a few threads and argumented in favor of it. But in fact I have to admit: It's just my personal taste and it's hard to balance. I would have liked to see Obsidian try it. I would have liked to see at least one class built around it. But just because I really, really wanted it. It is not a good idea. To that point nobody found a good reason why it should be in the game and what's more important: Nobody found a good solution how to balance it and solve it's problems.

In the end I used that per rest slots for utility spells only, because I noticed otherwise Aloth became ridiculously overpowered. I could (and did) spam the same stuff in every fight. It was like trying to quit smoking but having a pack of cigarettes in the house. So I filled the slots with escape spells and other harmless stuff. Yes. But you needed most of them for the extended buff/debuff feasts that happened late game and didn't use most of them. And since when are D&D based games a good example of a balanced casting system? I didn't. My Aloth is a walking swiss army knife. He has every spell available in the game written in his grimoire and has learned a broad portfolio of almost everything useful. I can use him as nuke, summoner and melee mage without switching grimoires or relearning spells. I can make him almost unbreakable if I want to. But nonetheless he feels kind of generic. So what? What's the point of having different grimoires if they work like scrolls in D&D?

I also think, that's a good thing. I can't stand those brainless fireworks. The promise for Deadfire was: No more trashfights. In any case you can assume that they playtested that. I don't think the guys at Obsidian are dumb. You are talking about the grimoire and level up stuff, I guess? Personally I like it. As much as I enjoy having as much spells as I can possibly get, in PoE that wasn't much fun anymore, as you could very easily get all of them. No difficult choices, no compromise, basically every caster was the same. Your enemies often were very specialised, elemental mages and the like, so I asked myself: why? Why do they have just a few spells, when it's so easy to get them all? I like specialized casters, it gives them kind of an academic feel. What I would like to have is a caster that can use more different spells at once, but for a price. You know, like the third weapon set ability.

I love padding. I always play BG as one big fat megamod. I try to choose the installed mods carefully, as I don't want to play crap that only extends the game with cheap battling, but I love mods like Tales Of The Deep Gardens, that are lovely crafted, athough they have nothing to do with the main story. I hate it when a story ends. So BG2 was perfect in my eyes. Like Odysseus adventures or something like that.

Good idea. But he actually said "Mach die Beine auf Mama" (Open the legs mama), "Was geht mich deine Leiche an?" (What do I care for your corpse?) and "Yippi ya ya, yippi yippi yeah!" I didn't use parts of songs, as I didn't want music in there. I wanted it to sound like a real voice set. I was very proud of it back then. Mainly I built the character around quotes from "The Hamlet machine". "Ich war Hamlet" (I was Hamlet), "Mein Gehirn ist eine Narbe" (My brain is a scar) and such kind of stuff. He was a mysogenist psychopath with the secret desire to become woman himself. So he was kind of destined to find that short sword that had bonuses against women. I just checked, the soundset isn't online anymore. I'll put it back. Now I'm nostalgic

Does that count as a quotation? https://youtu.be/la6tOXPghCA?t=110

It was a quote. I do that from time to time. And it was directed towards Valsuelm. Not that it wouldn't apply to you too. Regarding car insurance and stuff: Seems that the only people in this forum who can agree to the OP are spambots (except for Fiach. What does that tell us about him?). Just look at the likes on the OP. You could have figured all of that out by yourself, but hey: It's Saturday and I have the time. Have you ever actually read 1984? You really should.

I love it, how you claim in every ****ing thread that the bull**** you post isn't bull****, but everyone except yourself is too dumb to understand. May I answer that once and for all with a quote? It was posted here not long ago... Oh, oh, wait ... I forgot. Stephen Hawking was a fraud. Everyone except for you is a fraud. Don't mind, I have another one for you. It's from a fictitious person.

Also some music, as that what this thread is about. Something new: Something old: Something borrowed: Left out the "something blue" part that I intended to do, cause I couldn't come up with anything else then Blue Oyster Cult, which was already posted.

Dude, that's awesome. I'm missing the metal pics from the first page. That was a nice combination, so here is a picture of cast iron panties:

I did both. But that was in the BG days. One of my favourite characters was a schizophrenic bard with a Blixa Bargeld - voice set, that I created from audiobooks and Hornbach-campains. I put it up for download on the BG-forums, but noone seemed interested. Maybe because it was half english half german. "Ich will in meinen Adern wohnen." I often made gimmicky custom made groups, like wizard or dwarf groups. Once I made a full playthrough with a group of Jan Jansens all with the same voice set. That was a whole lot of fun as they could create duplicates of themselves, so I had an army of Jans. It was awfully overpowered. But roleplaying was reduced to: What would a group of Jan Jansens do? I think, if I imagined the conversations, I would have gone nuts. I never really imagine conversations. More like an abstract interaction like a vague script for a movie. Don't know if that counts.

So there's this enemy. You have never seen them (neither have I), but you are convinced that they are a major threat because you saw some burning cars on TV. And of course you hate them. In capital letters. Have you ever actually read 1984?
-
That video is just disgusting. I've seen a lot of disgusting stuff in my life, mostly for fun. But that got me a feeling in my stomach that not even cannibal holocaust or the guinea pig series could produce when I was about 16. We are deservedly doomed.

I edited this post. Be more subtle please. So many better choices than 'you are stupid' ~ Gorgon

No, I just thought what you said meant that you are not. Of course now that I think of it, it didn't. You could as well moved there. And no, I didn't know that. I know **** about Texas. Maybe I should have known that too. When I think of Texas first thing that comes to my mind is the guy from The Simpsons with the cowboy hat, just like when you think about Bavaria (where I come from) you will think about a guy with leather trousers, maybe with a mug of beer in his hand. But the point is: Why do you think, I want to tell you where you come from or anything? I just didn't understand you, that's all. It's not an attack, it's not a trick. I thought that was obvious.
