I think this particular incarnation of the topic has derailed a bit too far and reached the end of it's usefulness. It's also reached the post count limit. If people want to continue discussion on the theme, feel free to start a new thread.

Dear Borderlands 2 - please stop giving us nothing but rocket launchers! Thank you.

"Girl" sung by Davy Jones. Sometimes those simple, repeated melodic style songs still hit the spot. I'm still sad he's gone. Next up: "I Think We're Alone Now" via Tommy James & The Shondells

point out the genuine unique discussion on this board regarding a crpg feature or issue. duh. HA! Good Fun! I was going to say something similar. At any rate, any time you have huge influx of new users to a single place, it's likely there will be a period of a lot of duplication of topic themes/posts for a fair bit of time. Most people like to put their own two cents in, in their own words.

I like characters with unique (or oddball, or weird etc) personalities/quirks. I don't necessarily care about them being non-humanoid in appearance one way or another, especially for an isometric game.

That would be more often than I was originally expecting/thinking, so nice to hear. Nice interview, thanks for linking.

I'm not a big fan of fantasy dwarves/gnomes myself, but more for personalized reasons, so I just ignore it.

Hm. I think one can be "fanboy" "fangirl" without also being a blind puppet, or whatever. I'm definitely an Obsidian fangirl, who'll support them through almost anything where I can, but that doesn't mean I support them blindly or think they are/have been perfect. It's more that I staunchly support their potential. Sometimes that potential doesn't turn out to be in the direction I personally prefer, but that's life. But I do know what most people seem to mean by the term. I just see it as...the internet has a way of bringing out and magnifying any .... stubborn nature ... that every person can have to some degree or another. It's not like a real-life conversation where people get tired of yapping and stop, to likely not be continued when they wake up the next morning, or even next week. Unlike on the internet, when people wake up, log on to social sites, and can keep right on going. eg, the internet makes it all seem worse than it really is, if that makes sense. ...I think I'm rambling.

It's from one of the doodles MCA made during the KS countdown stream. Heh. I'm with Hurlshot on this one ... I've never had this problem. I'm terrible at cleaning out the fridge so I've had jars of jam that are a year old...which I wouldn't eat, but there's no visible mold in them when I finally get around to tossing them out. Perhaps you don't keep the fridge setting cold enough?

Forum software these days can give me such cut and paste headaches (espec. w/links). Think everything's right now.

Proud Members of the OBSIDIAN ORDER OF ETERNITY:

A long time ago, in an Order far away ... a post limit was reached and surpassed. Part6.

at that Avengers pic. Something I noticed a long long time ago, is the difference in films re: how they will film women vs. men in motion. Even when fully clothed in 'boring' pants and t-shirts. Camera angles, distance range, what the camera's center of focus may be. Ladders are an obvious example, but there's other such situations. While this doesn't bother me at all personally, it is rather amusing, because once you notice it, you can't help but notice it all the time forever more. And no, I don't mean all films/shows/directors are like that. But it's common enough to observe pretty frequently. There is plenty of over-idealized male stereotypes in entertainment, some of which is just as silly as the female stuff, but the ... cultural? ... association focus often does tend to be different, like that Avengers pic is trying to point out I think. For which I'm grateful. I may be female, but I have no desire to see a bunch of guys gratuitously running around in nothing but jockstraps anymore than I want to see women running around in thong underwear for a costume. Except, sometimes, for comedy.

Artist portraits with ability to import my own custom ones, like in BG1. I'd prefer they weren't completely (constantly) animated. I always find it a little weird/distracting to see npc avatar icons moving around out of the corner of my eye. But if they were, something akin to what Might and Magic 7 did would be tolerable. Slight eye shifting and reaction expressions to being hit in combat or diseased and such. Altho, in M&M, those open-mouthed expressions were pretty silly, heh.

Don't really care too much myself. Depends somewhat on the narrative and way the game is set up, like mentioned. But overall don't mind if it's included. If it's not, I'll often re-load save games just to quickly check stuff out if I want....then start a new game.

The season opener of The Walking Dead was most excellent. Lots of zombies/action, made some chr./plot points & hints without tons of filler...good set up for what's to come I think. Hopefully it'll stay in gear and not turn into a snore-filled dead zone of a mid-season like last year.

Today I've been unable to decide on a new forum avatar. Sometimes it takes me a while to find the one I'm going to stick with for months, making me feel like I have multiple personalities. Hm...wait a sec...maybe...nah! Other than that ... it's Friday, so that means game weekend with the spouse. *boomboomkersplat*

I'd like a reward tier with a giant paper poster of the ewe wearing the conical mage hat.

I don't use VATS either, so....I guess I shall attempt it with a lower level chr. Was thinking I could use old chrs. to at least run through the DLC's, even if I don't have the game-stamina for an entire replay.

I do not want to farm coconuts (or anything else) over and over, personally. I'm not sure I'd even want quests where you get coconuts, turn it in, the guy says "well now I need 30 parrot feathers", so you do that, and turn it in, and then are told "now I need 50 hairs from the tails of gorillas." Those work fine for grinding MMO's/action-rpg's, but...yea, no. Even if a lot of quests in PE can boil down to fetch ones, I at least want them to not be exactly the same task. If they're long just because it's going to take me "forever" to march to the map location where something is located, that's ok. Or if they're long because there's a part1, then after some other plot/main story point is reached, you can access a part2, and so on, those can be interesting if the reason for it feels like something you did had an effect on something. But if it's like that seemingly unending "Braiinnnnns" quest in Borderlands1 1st zombie DLC ... no thank you.

I'd help if I could, but the only thing I know about cheese is that sharp cheddar is never 'sharp' enough for my husband. He loves sharp cheddar and occasional other cheeses, but our buying practices tend towards the mundane...what's in the supermarket or local deli mostly.

That one might actually get me to pull out my wallet instead of just think about doing so.

I have forgotten ... is there a "recommended" clvl for the DLC's? My memory seems to believe you could do HH fairly early if you wanted but DM was more for lvl20's and above or some such? The others?

Not a fan of da bunny slippers, I take it?

For future reference: you need to remove the 's' from https. I think that denotes secure server (for YT at least) and the auto-embed doesn't like that.
