Volourn

"They did it because they wanted to make a distinction between a warrior and rouge (in da:o a warrior did everything better then a rouge)," But, this isn't true.

"Their greed level, it's over 9000!" WAAAAAAAAAA! A business wants to make money. WAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

"Cloony was bad because of the script, kilmer was just dodgy throughout his two." Kilmer's films weren't good but Kilmer himself was fine. Clooney was just plain bad. Clooney is not even close to my favorite actor and I find him over hyped but it felt like he wasn't trying at all. And, from his comments since, he pretty much all but confirms that it was basically a pay day for him. Kilmer at leasts eemed like he was trying despite the subpar writing. I laugh when I see people bash an Affleck film and espicially a performance of his. I can't remember even one Affleck film that is w that I left not enjoying to some degree even that christmas movie or the much beloved Gigli.

"Probably not to what salvatore was during those days, but the last two efforts by him I read sucked hard vacuum." I can't say. haven't read him in a long time. I haven't really read much in a long time til I started again a few months ago. "I echo ranged and dual wield weapons for warriors please!" Agreed. It was dumb to ban them from warriors in DA2. It was completely illogical.

Nobody can be worse than Clooney. Nooooooooooooooooboooooooooooooodyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Affleck is awesome. I'm sure the fanboys will be butthurt but who cares about him. I tend to like even his unpopular movies including Gigli. so *shrug*. I'm sure he'll do a good job. Too bad about the movie title. In other unimportant news... Mortal Instruments: City of Bone - Entertaining movie that covers old ground but with some new mixed in. Dissapointed in how vampires were represented but enjoyed the pseudo step father and the best friend. Lead was solid in your typical lead in these type of movies. 7/10

"Mickey McMickey" 'Nough said. L0L "My problem with the ending is that you're given 4 options, but no matter what you pick you get the same ending with negligible variations" False.

"Probably." Not even close. Salvatore has written some damn good books. It's not his fault 9well.. in some ways it is) that some people have gone extreme in their Drizzt love. The Dark Elf and Icewind Dale trilogies are damn good reads.

"That said, between ME 2, DA 2, and ME 3, I've come to the conclusion that BioWare has forgotten how to do good endings." ME2's ending was fantastic. DA2's ending could have been way better. No doubt about it. This so called BIO 'fanboy' hasn't even finished ME3 so haven't perosnally experienced ME3 ending but what I've seen from the whining is the whining is over the top stupidity.

"Yeah that can be a problem. But if the companions are written well, as in not whining, daddy issue free, not farting comedy side kicks, that risk should be minimized." Havinga choice of companions is always a good idea. Even with the limited npcs in PST it wa snice to have the option to throw the worst ones out. Plus, alignment/moral differences as well. ie. No way would a paladin want to travelwith Edwin very long. In DA, I killed that stupid assassin and it would stupid if I didn't have enough npcs to fill the aprty simply b/c I killed a guy who tried to murder me like we do all through games. L0L Plus, having 9 characters will not limit them to 10 lines. DA companions had TONS of lines as did DA2 and all 3 MEs. Or any other BIO RPG.

Toodles.

"I ain't playin'..." Mission accomplished. Another win for the good guy. See ya wouldn't want to smell ya.

."hehehe...waitin' fer Volourn ta show up; dwarf's got some freakish Spidey-sense when anyone bashes the BIOweenians...hehehe" Does that include when i bash them? Only a troll like you would troll the way you do.

Good update and nice monster. Hopefully, those interns are getting paid. Kanada has issues with companies taking advantage of interns who do the work of actual employees but don't get paid under the guise of 'teaching'. Still, good stuff.

I bet if I had wrote Dog murderiong Sten or Morrigan, you sickos wouldn't even blink. "This kiddies is a red herring, where the poster purposely ignores the main point in his/her response and starts to wax poetic about something completely irrelevant in order to support his post. We are arguing Dragon Age Vol, not Baldur's Gate." yet, you have no issues when others bring non DA games up. Bottom line is that DA has more strategy, tatics, and options than most RPGs even (espicially) the precious BG. P.S. That character looks stupid espicially the hat.

"I'd say that what made warriors redundant was their inefficiency at controlling aggro, warriors were poorly done in DA:O." No. They were poorly done in BG more likely but the fanboys just can't see it and are delusional.

When did you? How over the top in my reply do I have to go to make things obvious?

Even so, Dog's personality was just your typical loyal pet. Now, if he had betrayed you for the Darkspawn because they gave him better doggie biscuits that would have been a sweet twist... or if he had raped Sten (or Morrigan) in the camp.. that would have been different.

You believe in assault. I believe in filing assault charges when someone attempts to injure me with something that could kill me. Dempster is a coward who can't even admit he did it on purpose. The fact you believe that A Rod deserves the death penalty because he did some drugs is laughably disgusting. L0L

How did dog have an 'interesting' personality? Zevran's personality equaled slit throat, and Sten was a one dimensional loser with no depth. Also, anyone who think mages do all the work in DA obviously don't know how to play the game.

DA > BG Anyone who thinks BG had more tatical and stategical combat to either D is fooling themselves. I mean BG fighters had no combat options at all while DA series warriors had all sorts of abilities.

"When someone suggests a woman being mutilated is okay because she's a bitch, c***, or whore, my initial reaction is that their opinion of the character is strongly influenced by their misogyny. Likewise, if you stated you Anders was a f** that got what was coming to him, I'd probably assume you were homophobic despite the fact that finally getting to kill Anders was a high point of DA 2 for me." This is ridiculous. Okay if you call a scumbag male a bastard I will have to assume you hate all men and are bashing all men as well. Some women are bitches and some women are awesome. Some men are bastards and some men are awesome. DEAL WITH IT. Saying so doesn't make one sexist. As for the gay slur, I agree that is uncool and I personally don't use it but someone who doesn't use doesn't neccessaruily mean they are a homophobe espicially cosnideirng I hear quite a few gays use that kind of language when insulting hterosexuals. L0L

"If a story can make a player feel bad for a mad, mass-murdering pyro" You felt sorry for that loser? I laughed at his patheticness and terminated him pronto. What disgusting piece of crap. No symapthy whatsoever. One of the worst npcs ever.

"Its good that you had fun with the combat but I wouldn't go so far as to call it deep." I didn't call it deep. I said it was more tatical than most RPGs. HUGE difference,

"we're likely going to get garbage combat like DA2 again." DA2 combat was hella fun. Anyone who thinks otherwise is wrong. There was more tatical strategy involved than most pure RPGs.
