  1. "I don't disagree that GG needs industry support, but Obsidian isn't the right people for it. I agree with KaineParker that the media already treats Obsidian unfairly. I think it is because Obsidian is already one of the most "artistic" developers, but not pushing the "right" message with their writing gifts." FALSE.
  2. "in my experience the game is very light on reading or thinking." The game has a lot of writing. If there's any complaint to be had it's that dialogue is largely one sided. NPCs spam huge amounts of text and the PCs have one liners. L0L Youa re being talked to not in actual conversations. Lots of thinking in this game. More than the vast majority of games. L0L PE L0L DOS L0L WL2 is BY FAR the best game I've played this year. And, i don't foresee PE surpassing it unless Obsidian becomes miracle workers in the next 3 months. DA3 has a chance thoguh with its more cinematic approach though it won't have the old skool stuff I love because its made for people like you and the Obsidian forums.
  3. Beckinsale looks good but when I think 'hot' actresses she's not even in my top 100... Anyways... The Maze Runner - Good, entertaining movie. I was never bored. The acting could have been a little stringer, and the story could have been more developed, the main actress wa sunder used. I think it could have used 10-20 more minutes. 8/10
  4. Maybe have a few trading type quests too. ie. Help the Ranger citedal set up trade routes and the like and you are more successful with certain ranks of barter. But, the game can use a lot more of those non dialogue skill checks in the game just to add things.
  5. You think only West is the only 'culture' that fcouses on sex. Every cultture does. Even the ones that claim they don't. They're flat out lying. Children aren't brought by a stork you know.
  6. " If you think the NFL, the richest and most powerful sporting organization in the USA, wasn't able to obtain a video from an elevator of a casino " I never claimed this. Also, to me, the video chnaged nothing since we were all told very clearly what happened.
  7. They had already acted on it. They suspended him for 2 games (not enough) but the video came out with people obiously being horrified by the actual footage so they suspended him again for 6 games and the team fired him. But, people knew what he did. The police said it and Rice himself admitted to it. Even the Ravens and the league both stated that Rice was honest about what happened. He and his fiancee got into a tiff, she hit him a few times, he punched her hard, she fell unconcious, and then he dragged her out of the elevator. This was known prior to video but , of course, the video makes it more 'real'. Godell is just trying to to damage control because he knows he handled the situation wrong - both by the extremely short initial suspension and then suspending him for the same event a 2nd time which is gonna get the NFL in trouble. But, the NFL knew about the video, and they knew exactly what happened. The only difference is the public never saw the video.
  8. "No." Yes. "W2 is all over the place, it doesn't know if it wants to be a dungeon crawler or an adventure game" It knows exactly what it wants to be. A RPG. And, it's damn awesome at it.
  9. I kinda do but they should really raise the % bonus you get per point. It should be pointed outed if you run with 7 rangers and give them 4 points each on the skill that's 28%. You could 70% discount total. I think it should be raised to 5% per point and then they can raise prices so groups who focus on barter would actually beenfit from it. Maybe even get a boost to it by chr/int.
  10. "Freakin' NFL, when they're not covering up beating the crap out of women" While the NFL handled it wrong, there was no cover. It was known he had punched his fiance, knocked her out, and thend ragged her out of the elevator ebfore the video was shown to the public. So, don't make stuff up. Plenty of reasons to fire Godell. No need to make stuff up.
  11. "Actually this sighn meant: "God is great!". Do you has problems with this?" God isn't great. he is evil. He mass murders children so I don't praise him becausee vil should never be praised for being evil.
  12. Gaider is definitely one of those hateful white gamers - he hates BIO's customer base.
  13. Why? Old skool games have tons of replayability. I doubt I'll do as much replays as before because I'ma n old man and don't have the time to but it's possible. The game has everything needed to be 'replayable' unlike DOS which I actually tried to replay even making 2 new aprties but I simply couldn't get back into it.Even early on, two areas change quite a bit based on a choice you make.
  14. A group named ISIS may be around for an indefinite time but that's different than actually have power of large areas of land and runn ing it like some sort of pseudo government out in the open like they basically were/are.
  15. Yup. And, despite issues, it's friggin' awesome because of it.
  16. Boo hoo. While it be ncie for more info the oncept is not a 'gotcha'. Nice try though. Also, the manual tells you armour has strength requirements. That said, bugs wise, the braggarts will like to know that I'm getting more 'blue screens of death' that restarts my computer. LMAO
  17. Back to the Watson speech. of coruse, the usual idiots spin it the wrong. They're talking about how it was a 'message to men' which completely ignores the main point. the message was to EVERYBODY. Morans will morans.
  18. "All my members had a hit percent of around 40-60" Do you kneel before Zod? That adds like 10%. Also, making sure you are close/far enough to use the weapon at greatest chance helps. Submachine guns are close at clsoe range/crap at far range vice versa for sniper rifle. My sniper can shoot as much as 94% at far range and has horrid % at close and even 0% in meele. Also, leadership can boost accuracy pretty good too. So many ways to boost %. "Its primary effect seems to be on HP. (And, apparently, as an equipment threshold.) " It also gives you AP. "sadly/stoopidly, the equipment threshold is meaningful, particularly for front-line combatants. is ridiculous that a stat you might happily drop to 1 needs to be at 4 or 5 because of 1 piece of gear?" Boo hoo. You gotta make a choice. Besdies, if you lower your strength you can't carry much which means loading up on bullets/healing stuffs let alone stuff to sell could be trouble. Plus, con does matter since some nemies can do major damage so you need the hit points to at least take a few hits. Also, on top of that, you don't need high strength to get good armour. Plenty of solid armour chocies that require no strength so why you whinin' about it? If anything, theres hould be more limits. OMG! That makes strength important. There's a few real dump stats that cna be worked on. Still, I'd rather have 'unbalanced' stats than boring dumbed down 'balanced' stats. R00fles!
  19. Considering we live in a word that has forcefully pushed on everyone 'gender neutral' words in schools and normal speech it's high time 'equalists' do the same thing with feminism. Oh yeah, my bad, gender biased words are ONLY bad in reference to males. LMAO If equality between genders is what one seeks you'd think you'd find a gender neutral word to define it. Heh. In comparison, the word gamer isn't biased against/for anyone. It only means 'someone who plays games'. Not complex, not complicated, mot biased, not sexist. L0L FEminism L0L Why the hard on to keep using that word when a much better more fitting term is there to be used? Gender equality = or 'equalist' (which doesn't come off the tongue as easy since it's not commonly used admittedly).
  20. Because the word gamer inherently has nothing to do with gender or race or sexual preference. While the word feminism already has certain things inherent connected to it. It is inherently sexist just like plenty of other gender based words like masculine. that feminists ironically hate and repeatedly try (and successfully!) change.. L0L
  21. You two are tools of sexist feminists (yeah yeah I just called you sexist sexists). Don't be ignorant. I'm not 'mischaracteruizing' feminism. Feminism doesn't even know what it means. Ask a feminist what they mean by calling themselves - you have multiple answers. Ask a gamer what they mean when claling themselves gamers you'll know the answer - they play games. It's not confusing at all. On top of that, feminism is inherently sexist just as masculine is. I guess I should refer to strong woman as masculine right? That's rather sexist implying that to be striong you must be masculine. That's evil. That's the main reason wnhy I have an issue with the word feminism. If you take the idea that feminism = belief in equality it implies that in order to believe in equality one must be feminine which is sexist since it suggests that if one isn't feminine ie. a man you inherently don't believe in equality. That is evil. I believe in equality, and I'm not feminine. PERIOD. \Now, take your trolling elsewhere. Capiche?
  22. "No it wasn't playable for everyone, that's the point. Like the fact CoM_Solaufein game keeps crashing? Your own personal experience doesn't apply to everyone" I don't care about 'everyone'. I only care about my 'personal experience' BECAUSE it doesn't apply to everyone and just to me. Why would I give a crap if Solaufein's game keeps crashing? LMAO
  23. To twist this to the other big internet convo: You'll never read me say the following: "People threatening Anita with bombs and wrape are wrong to do so but..." No, they're just wrong even if I agree with other stuff. Bombs and rape is wrong. Period. No excuse justifies it.
  24. No, because the peopel twisting are such a minority they have no power of the word. As Watson explained, feminism is to tainted that even women are fleeing it en mass. 'Cause it is so now. I don't know any woman (all 5 of them lol) who proudly claim themselves to be feminists but if you talk about equality theya re all for it. However, talk to a fellow gamer none of them go 'oh that word is so bad." None of them are even aware of the online controversey. Gamer still means gamer to 99% of the population outside of the racist and sexist few. Feminism, on the other hand, is so hit or miss that you can't be sure what kind of 'feminist' you are talking about: When someone who plays games describes themselves as a gamer they literally mean 'i play games' not 'white manwho hates women and all other minorities' while a self described feminist can mean 'believe in true equality', 'hate men/embarassed to be a man' or even to the point that 'any intereaction with a man and a woman means the woman is being raped'. So, try again, since you failed on your agenda.
