    I do that occasionally with Steam sales, and then most of those titles sit uninstalled and unplayed, or only played for 20 minutes. So I know what you mean. We could build a fire, sing a couple of songs. ...not in the mood for "real" playing of any game this morning, but I did try continuing farming for one of BL2's Axton heads. A very easy to get to/kill enemy drops it (under a minute for each run), and I swear I've killed the thing 200 times and so far it's dropped 4 legendary Cradles and 1 Maya head. It's Legendary gear drop is more common than the purely aesthetic appearance head. That's getting a bit ridiculous.

    The lack of anything interesting to watch on 800+ channels of TV and a couple of mostly-sunny days is making me long for baseball season. At least Walking Dead starts up again soon.

    That aspect has actually been discussed a lot already, in all the other threads. At any rate, it's more about what direction almost all previous romance threads get turned toward, rather than any original intention. It's been a while and things are slow, however, so as I said, we shall see.

    What is a "Videa?" ..... I had to say it.

    I gave up on my Mech after having to listen to her scream every time she caught on fire. Drove me bonkers, and not in a good way.

    For some reason, the image of a cat's face and front paws peeking out of a kangaroo pouch came to my mind. Probably means it's about time to get back to snoozin'. Happy day/cheers.

    I think I'd feel bad for the many suddenly out of work (or at least less work to be had) voice actors. Altho I can see it for some of the smaller bits, like background chrs. and other noises. But for main/player/companion type chrs...I hope we're still a really long ways away from it. Just my opinion.

    Hubby and I took a pair of 34 chrs. into the Hammerlock DLC. We liked that the design of the areas felt a tiny bit more like the first game, and the Witch Doctors made things a bit more interesting. I'd say we enjoyed it, but at the end, here's my husband's statement about it: "I've had enough of this DLC...I'm disappointed it was so short." ....we finished it in like 5 hours. Didn't do all the side quests, maybe half of them. And we're usually the sort of players that take at least twice as long to finish a (first-run/blind) gaming thing as most reviewers/many seem to do.

    Kulyok's? *Google* Nope...just plain old vanilla BG1 Xan. Never got around to BG mods, really. I should some day....I just haven't.

    ... I'll let it go for now, so the poll can have some results, as long as the thread doesn't turn into the typical romance-topic direction/debates. We shall see. Carry on.

    --Xan --Atton --Boone ....I loved them all to death in their actual games, but mostly, the humor value of those three in the same room would probably have me lol'ing forever.

    Poor Chris Taylor. I always liked him. Only played Dungeon Siege's tho, none of their RTS. That said, the mixture of genres sounds a bit weird to me. I like both action-rpg and some RTS, but mixing the two I'd have some reservations. I generally haven't liked games that mix genres too much, so it would depend on exactly what level of that they're really doing. I'm having a hard time picturing it.

    Cheating to that extent, imo, does ruin the "fun" of a game. At least, in terms of item hunting. But I don't even use the keys. I freely admit I used the bin file cheat once to check that chest out/what its potential really was (2 legit keys don't do it), but I'd rather just find stuff on my own. I'm weird that way. I don't even like trading, heh. All I used willowtree (BL1) for was inventory space, because I'm a collector. That said, the current trend in games such as these to have drop rates (even for the not-the-highest-tier stuff) that are insanely low/rare is becoming a bit annoying.
  14. LadyCrimson
    If I can understand it and whatever is used/created feels appropriate for the culture being presented, I'm fine. I think I'd rather not read a whole lot of thee's and thy's, however. Perhaps a few characters where that's part of their idiosyncratic personality or something, but not everyone in the world.
  15. LadyCrimson
    I'm still annoyed about the inventory (or at least the town bank) space. I know you can either cheatengine your way or use some game glitches to store more stuff, but then I'd always be paranoid that some patch would = a lot of stuff lost or something. I'll stick to having 12 mules instead.

    My favorite Liam Neeson crazy scene is still the "pink elephant" one from Darkman. Classic.

    I started to make a comment about JJ doing a SW film, then remembered I no longer care about new SW films. So instead I'll just wish good luck to him with that. Being rather stuck in bed this week I saw a lot of trash TV. It's amazing what they'll make a show out of these days. I also saw Taken 2 last night. Just as silly as the first one, if not moreso, but there's still something about Liam Neeson lumbering around like a tall, handsome Quasimodo kicking butt and acting all super serious that entertains me. Altho, this was the first film where I felt like he was starting to look a bit too old. If there's a Taken 3 I have a feeling Neeson won't be in it. Which is probably a good thing. For him, I mean.

    Back to some old classics? Haven't played anything myself last week, maybe I'll get around to the Hunt DLC for BL2 this weekend.

    Deeper Dungeons is the best. I love the levels with all the tunnelers. Am still slowly making my way through a solo game of BL2. I failed round 5 of the Ore Chasm arena 3 times (7 waves, only got to 6th wave, grr), so I've been farming the lava dragon for gear and leveling up a bit more. The first 4 rounds of that arena were pretty easy, the last one became crazy. Especially when you're trying to get the critical-hit sub-goal.

    I'd prefer it in some kind of video let's play chunks, whether on YouTube or elsewhere. Essentially, so I don't have to feel like I have to be sitting down to watch at a certain time for a certain number of hours. A text Let's Play with screenshots here in the forum (or elsewhere) would also be pretty cool, imo. Or heck, maybe even both ... one sort of complementary to the other. ....I guess it doesn't matter a whole lot to me, as long as the timing ability to watch/read it is flexible.

    There was a forum software update. It's not technically "messed up", but in quick reply it no longer seems to show the tags ... I only see the 'boxes' in the WYSIWIG "preview" area. Something about saving in HTML vs. BBcode or something probably. If you turn off BBcode mode (the paperclip in the far upper left) you can see the tags then.

    Jay Wilson: no longer to be working on Diablo 3 and will be "transitioning" to other Blizzard projects instead. I am not surprised. http://us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/7592242994

    omg, when the poor wizard is paddling on his barrel, makes it up the ladder only to be dragged down the hole again, I lost it. So funny. They have "death animations" in today's games, but they largely seem to involve "body part gibbing" or dissolving and little else ... I definitely miss stuff like in that video. Varied, often humorous.

    Seems like these days I'm the only one who likes the Covenant series. I read it when I was 13 and it's still one of my favorites. The fact the protagonist is kind of a self-absorbed, diseased jerk who doesn't know how to handle things half the time is one of the points and it does become important. Plus there's a lot of other characters in the series that are awesome, like the Giants. But I do understand not everyone likes protagonists like that.

    I know you don't have to move your head ... but people tend to do it instinctively when watching something takes up all their vision - especially when including their peripheral. It's like how people wearing headphones tend to talk really loud even tho they don't have to in order to be heard by others. I know people who still move their heads when playing on a monitor. I mean look at the 2nd/3rd guys in the video. They're moving they're head all over the place and that's when not doing any combat/adrenalin.
