"Doesn't install? What did u do to your gaming rig? Perhaps you could do with an upgrade?" Do a search. Read about my computer specs. It's NOt my computer - espicially since I had pretty much no bug problems with NWN2 when I first installed it. Now, afetr I had tried uninstalling and then reinstalling to deal with a silly toolset problem; the game no longer installs. At all. Because of this NWN2 is inching slowly to my crap 'it's a fun game once; but afterwards a useless game' list which I would have thought IMPOSSIBLE for a game that is gonna have modules and likely expansions down the road. I might try reinstalling it later; but I'm this close to just throwing the game in the trash which means no NWN2 expansions for me which is amazing since I'm such a D&D/NWN series whore. Hell, I bought POR2 knowijng full well that it had a 99% chance of being crap prior to release. To me, best rpg should go to either G3 or FF12. Probably FF12 when i think about it because I can't criticize it much. G3 has its bugs problems; and its combat while fun can be rathering annoying at times. FF12 may not have the 'best role-playing tm' (no Ff does); but overall; it does everything well to superbly. Nothing about it screams crap like G3 or NWN2...

"NWN2 is hands down the best CRPG I have played this year." Nah. I feel G3 is better, and it's story is actually good. NWN2 does deserve 'best npcs' though. And, voice overs, despite a few REALLY annoying ones. NWN2 doesn't deserve much else other than a shake of the head since it doesn't even install anymore. Gothic 3 has its bug problems; but NWN2 is ridiculousness! I think FF12 should have won 'best story'... G3 should win 'best world', 'best atmosphere', and 'best music', and 'best use of meaningful choices'. Khelgar most definitely deserved 'best npc' though except maybe Elanee.

Nobody.

Taks did it so well; he doesn't need any real help espicially from the likes of me.

Taks wins.

"Total sell out." Really? Sell out? How? Did 'YOU' pay Time off for this? One cnaa rgue that it was silly to give a generalized 'you' such an award as 'person of the year'; but to say it was a 'total sell out' is just as silly if not sillier. Perosnally, I do find it silly and a waste of time on their part; but meh; accusing them of 'total sell out' without evidence is immoral.

"Human rights hold a much more important place in Europe" That must explain the Holcaust, the conuqering of various continents like NA or Afriaca. Sorry; but Europe is the last palce to brag about their love for 'human rightys'. How 'bout the baby's right not to be murdered by daddy because it wrecked the video game? R00fles! Doesn't the baby have a right. The diea that you actually believe you are morlaly superior to me because you want to give a basic free pass to a scum murderer is silly. I believe it makes you morally INFERIOR as it makes you uncaring and inhumane towards the victim of the heinous crime not to emntion the others arround the poor soul. Anbd, the exuse that something must be 'wrong' with him is silly. Some humans can do relaly abd thinsg without having some 'sickness' that cna be diagnosed and then 'cured'. So, take your Europena arrogance and go wathc some videos and read some books about the Holocaust and what you did to the people of the NA continent when you invaded... mmkay?

"if we are civilised people living in a TRULY democratic country" I doubt yuou know what TRUE demcoracy. Going by a trued emocracy, the majority in this threa dwould win which means bye bye child murderer. I don't thinbk he should be tortured; but he should be punished and not felt pity for, and that includes up to the death penalty. Cold blodded murderers deserve nothing less. If it wa spossible to 'redeem' him then sure; but as otehr spoint out; this isn't a fairy tale wher ethe bad guy tm will see the error of his ways and reform.

Disgusting.

A. Yeha, that's disgusting! @article! B. R00fles @ Krookie!

I don't care if someone I know onlien dies nor should anyone care if I die. We don 't know each other so it's no different than a strnager dying. It's sad; but unimportant. Abnd, funny too. That may make me mean, uncivilzied, or cruel; but *shrug*. The internet is a cruel, cruel palce.

While what marcus did was definitely wrong; this case reeks, and this illustrates it: "The girl accuses Vick of fraud, saying he told he loved her, wanted her to have his child and that having a sexual relationship with someone her age was acceptable." Oh please. If this was 'fraud'; lots of people would be guilty of fraud. This is about money plain and simple.

And Mass Effect.

No, no. It's good stuff.

Shouldn't ME and JE2 (if it actually comes out in 2007) be under the Action RPG list? Afterall, that's what BIO themselves are calling those games. Hmm. I wouldn't be surprised if there is a JE2; but I'd be surprised if it comes out in 2007. I'd think that be a 2008 game. And, DA might make a 2007 release... Overall, good job on the list.

"Dead and buried, like Marino's Superbowl chances" LOL Even I have to laugh at this one! :D

I prefer Bush; but the numbers don't lie. However, fi we are disucsisng R0TY, we cna't rule out a few of the 1st year QBs. As for the Marino comment, that got old ten years ago. "OMG! marino didn't win a super bowl! L0L0L0L0LLIPOP" Talk about a joke that was dead and buried eons ago. :crazy: :crazy:

Well.. I'm slowly getting back into things. I'm now level 5, and finishing up questrs for Reddock before heading to Cape Dun. Hopefully, the game doens't get retarded again. I hate having to redo things with the same character. I want to get to a part of the game I ahdn't done so I stop with the deja vu. If all goes well, the game might get pushed ahead of both NWNs!!!

Rangers have only played 1 more game than pittsburgh. I believe Crosby missed a few games earlier. Crosby's lead won't last forever. Sorry folks, it's true; but he's still awesome.

" (which also fits your general's pre-made personality). " Shepard doesn't have a premade perosnality. Sorry, it's true. Only the character's race (human), position (commander), and last name (Shepard) are pre determined. Everything else is up to the player. "I think, the reason for some people not liking the transition to voiceover (me) is because it forces you to hear the character the certain way. With text, I can hear it in my brain. Even though the actual reply is spelled out, I have a way of imagining how it is pronounced, and I can hear what I want to hear, i.e. the "perfect" voiceover" Meh. That's the point of games. To be able to see the characters and hear them too. Otherwise, you might as well stick with pnp or text rpgs. "and/or sometimes outright terrible VO (Aribeth!)." Aribeth's VO is one of the best ever.

Yes. That is correct.

Crosby is a cheater!!! :angry: :angry: :angry:

"Party control in NWN2 is far inferior to the Infinity Engine games but it is also far superior to the KotORs and NWN1." That's because NWN party members wer enever meant to be controlled like automataions. But, yeah, NWN2 party control > KOTORs. NWN party members were set up like the Fo games except they had (usually) better AI.

"IIRC you can import your PC from SoU into HotU, but not from the OC to SoU." You can port the PC; but the characters won't react like you did OC stuff. And, if you port your OC into SOU; you'll obviously be too powerful for it. A lot of people whined about SOu being 'too easy',a nd then mentioned they wer eplaying a level 20ish character. LOL I'm not saying SOU is ahrd - it isn't - ; but at least be fair when calling it easy. Of course a camapign geared for level 1s up to level 12ish is gonna be easy for level 20s. R00fles!

"rated it a 5 in that other thread. So at least a 6." Heh. Was teasin'.
