"In fact, most dungeons in BG2 are absolutely nothing special, just like in Eternity - and I say that as someone who loves BG2." WRONG. "Expecting a BG 2 amount of content from a 4 million dollar budget seems rather nuts to me." I doubt BG2's budget was really any bigger considering ity was a sequel that took 2ish years and it released in 2000 or 2001(?). That said, PE's size and amount of content is overall fine. "Yeah I'd say POE falls in between BG 1 and BG 2 in terms of content quantity, and I actually think the quality of the content is better than both. Either way, to say this game lacks content is just insane." Better than BG2? Nah, but otherwise I agree. BG1 does some things better than PE but overall PE is the superior game nostalgia aside. But, it should be consideirng a bunch of RPG developing rookies made BG1! It shouldn't be a huge accomplishment.

Oh, so there is no issue with muslim extemists at all. Why is Islam the ONLY religion that seems to be off limits when it comes toc riticism and bashing? Christianity and cathlism surely is bashed way more than Islam. Same with Judaism. Both of those are targets of hate in the west more than Islam. Because, if someone gioes after it all the crybabies come tod efense and whine that it's just aa small subsection that's an issue not the whole group but when a ChristianCatholic/Jew does something wrong (usuaully far less violent than this) it's guns ablazed for those same people. Check out the reaction to the pizza place in Indiana who said in a pretend situatiion than may not make pizza for a gay wedding. They were attacked non stop with harassment, bullying, death rates, etc. And, all of Cathoilicism waas painted with the same brush and labeled evil and 'must be eliminated' cause it is evil. I get it. Not all muslims are extremists. To that, I say duh. Most muslims are like most people and just want to live their live in peace. hwoever, there is definitely something smelly in the Muslim religious practice. This is FACT. It has to be dealt with and not ignored. But, hey, let's pretend that Muslim extremists aren't mass murdering a bunch of inocent people INCLUDING a bunch of innocent Muslims becasuse they don't practice the religion in the same sick and twisted way.

What are you babbling about?

Anyway, I am investigating the punk(s we were sent to find by stronghold psycho... eventually got to me the guy who supposedly turned us into the chosen one aka The Watcher. He goes all psycho and gets all the super crazies and golems to attack us. We kill them in self defense then proceed normal.. the guards and other patients are neutral. we confront the witchdoctor who was doing experiments and told him we're gonna tell on him ('cause i am mr. honest) anyways he gets mad and attack.. go to leave.. the two other animancers in basement + assistnt are still non hostile... however, go to top floor and everything there is now hostile (and weak). so.. is this some sort of bug or is it supposed to happen this way b/c we ended up killing patients and/or the experimenter 9the statue guy did ask us not to to 'pole' the patients but most of the patients. If this a bug it sucks.. if it's the way it's scripted to work ouch seems weird since the guys in the basement are still on my good side.. i did notice the detective people seem to know about what happens there (not exact details). also, animancers just outside of building also aren't hostile.. just the ones on top floor.. hmmm

Uh this thread was meant meant for the spoiler story section damnit.. move this please. .. damn newb i am

"I wouldn't take them at any value. Id just rest." resting is for lazy people who just spam stuff without thought. i'd like to play as long as can w/o resting - prferably only resting in between dungeon romps or when characters actually get tired.

lll SPOILERS BECAUSE OF STUPIDITY WRONG FORUM DOUCHEBAG!!

So.. there are health restoration talents in the game that look to cool.. only to find out they give you back garbage levels of less than 5) (as lose as 20-30ish).. The idea behind them is sound but to waste a talent on such garbage when your character total health can easily reach 500+ is silly. This needs to be boosted for this talent to be worthwhile. I saw it on one of the npcs and I was gonna take it for my character but not now as it be a waste. It should be 100+ a boost from might + level maybe. That is all as The Volourn has typed.

*FART*

Huh?

Yeah, they did.

Both of those games had lots of dungeons espicially BG2.

"I would like to see the possibility of sharing items between weapon sets. Very concretely, if I build a sword-and-board fighter, I might want to change between weapons, without swapping out my shield. That doesn't seem to be possible now..." 100% THIS! Other stuff - more rewarding exploration - created characters at inn should be at same level as main character (I am currently using the actual npcs but it seems silly to nerf allies that you have to pay for) - smart xp handouts - more C&C - more 'unique' items like that shield baord that you can use as a secondary weapon - the whole stronghold needs reworking (NWN2's is way better) - seperate sneaking and trap removal/open doors - being able to sneak individually - spread out x p for killing enemies (ie. most of the time the first map you encounter a certain enemy type you get the max hp) That is silly. - humanoid/named enemies shoudl give xp (ie. those gold paladins give you none but one of the xfarts gives you xp? WTH - no xp given for entering an empty house. That's just dumb - multi classing (yeah this would take a lot of work so I doubt this is possible til expansion sequel) but an enchanter/ranger could be a neat combo or a druid/barb. this leads to more variety

People who feel the need to rest after just a coule of fights are just not good (no matter the difficulty). There should be a time limit on rests - 1 or 2 times a day max.

"But it is a tough job," WAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!

Paladinsa re awesome. Mine rarely gets hit and does pretty good damage too.

Surely, someone managed to sneak out of town while you were on your rampage...

"Yeah, this is the reason I kind of prefer to watch European hockey. I just wish the best players didn't always go where the money is (NHL) because the best leagues and the best fans seem to be in Europe." No.

Worse case scenario is they ignore PE's good ideas and take all the bad ones. L0L

"Obsidian is a pretty decent sized developer though, so keeping the lights on and the paychecks going out is no drop in the bucket. They are still going to need to keep a few projects going at once. " People don't seem to get that. They view Obsidian as some second rate basement dwelling group of buddies. It's a company with 100+ employees. One just has to look a thte credits for PE to see this. People show such disrepect towards Obsidian a company that has made multiple million+ selling games. They have employees to feeds and expensive bills to pay.

"He also needs to realize that you won't go very far in an American media house if he thinks his humor should be based on anti-Western and anti-American sentiment." Kidding right? Most of the successful comedians in the West make a habit of making fun of Amerika. LMAO Just aslong as you attack the patriarchy and not women or minorities. Then you are in trouble due to the 'feels'.

"Raedric strikes me as a harsh man, a cold leader. He's someone who is capable of making though decisions and committing sacrifices for the "greater good"... even if that comes with a heavy cost. He is both ruthless and mad, but also the ONLY man in Gilded Vale who is TRYING to liberate his land from the curse. He believes that in killing some people now, more lives will be saved in the future. Its a though decision with no guarantees of success... but I think a small chance is better than none, and Kolsc doesn't look like he will do squat about it." He murdered his wife. He also coldly murders the people he pretend to be protecting. That's poor leadership. His leadership is being attacked by all fronts - even those 'loyal' to him have a raher low opinion this includes the animator witch in the dungeons. The guy is a poor leader. His cousin is not perfect but he seems to be better. Heck, Raedric's own guards flip flop to his cousin without blinking an eye the moment you kill him. He can't even inspire their loyalty. LMAO

Eh. Most enemies can't even damage my paladin significantly. He's a betetr tank than the fighter. So much so I let him get aggroged and have 5+ bash him while he laughs.

"To think Bioware wasted 200 million on SW-TOR....." They likely made more profit than Obsidian made /makes for PE. Gotta spend money to make money. That said, 200 mil is ridiculous number though have my doubts since people seem to like to pop random numbers when quoting how much SWTOR cost to make. L0L btw, The expansion was pretty much guaranteed during KS since backers at certain levels got it.

"And no, the "it's EA's fault" excuse doesn't help me since EA gave Bioware a lot of freedom" This is a blatant lie. Everything BIO has done is 100% EA's doing because EA is BIO. This is fact. That's good and bad depending on how one views their games but EA owns BIO so they make the final call. PERIOD.
