Volourn

The rep in my pants. :ph34r:

I think K covered my post quite nicely. Thanks.

Hey, don't besmirch my bad name. :angry:

Well.. Fallout 2 allowed this, and you can do it in Fallout 1 if you "cheated" (debatable if it is cna even be considered cheating).

Colrom, true, there's been many casualties in Falklujah, but accoridng to the doctors after the toruble has somewhat died down the majority of said casulties were fighters not unarmed civilians. Monet was saying that the US was just bombing everywhere and anywhere. Sure, they used bombs but it wa stargeted bombing (of course even targeting bombing isn't going to be perfect). And, oh, for the third time, I do not agree with what happened in Fallujah at all. The US handled that entire situation wrong. No exuse for what happened; but there is no need to make things up to get the point across. True, the first post could e considered propaganda. But, the main point is while there is bad stuff going on Iraq (Fallujah, Prison Scandal as eamples0 there are also good things happening. That's the main point I take out of it. As for it being a racist/religious war; I'm sure it is for many people on both sides. But, if it was really one that why do many Arabs/Muslims either support the war outight ( see Kuwait as one and that includes a sizeable majority of Kuwait's popualtion)) or support in roundabout ways. Remember, the whole thing about WMD starting out with lies seemingly by actual Iraqis who wanted the invasion to occur. I think it's tad of a stretch to call this a race/religious war. You do relazie that in the majority of race/religious war; it usually ends up being mass genocide. As horrible as some things in iraq have been done; that has not happened. And, while I guess it is a possibilty I seriousy doubt it will happen .. Our fantasies? I have no fantasy of conquest and occupation. Please don't put me in any group that wishes or dreams about it. Thankyou.

You missed hte point . Youw er eimplying that the US was extrmely careless and was just unlaoding guns elft and riht. If that wer eso, there'd be THOSUANDS of dead Fallujahan CITIZENS. That is simply not the case. Your delusions are showing your ignorance. Once again, i don't even support the Amerikan attack on Fallujah. i think theyw ent too far in their repsonse. However, extremes and streches of the truth like you posted helps no one. Period.

Ahh.. The old 'I knew what they meant' argument'. LOL I love Intenet Geek Message Boards tm.

No. No, it won't. That is impossible.

Foss, how much is a lot? As I'm sure you know they were made by BIO so even though you were dissapointed in NWN, it's obvious if you mean you liked the BG alot, BIo has "amazed' you at least once (depending what you mean by amazed of course).

You haven't played the BG series yet?

TIE Figfhter is a stupid game. *yawn* KOTOR2 WILL CRUSH IT! WILL CRUSH IT TO DOOM! With ease.

It will be great. For the record, I would rate the original good.

You talking about Fallujah, Monte? First off, I don't think the US should have besiged that city anyways; but I seriously dohbt they were 'strafing civilian area' liek you suggets. If they did; there'd be a lot more civilian casualties. Way more. Anyways, topic on hand, thsoe are good things, but there are abd things going on as well. The mess with fallujah which looks to be being cleared up,a dn the awful occurances at the prisons as just two examples. So, meh, I say it's mixed.

Keep up the entertainment!

Really? I almost didn't buy the game because of SW. Go figure.

All true; but then again that description does fit KOTOR1 as well AND it was successful.

Well.. It is Karzak. he does it to get a reaction. Don't take it too seriously as Karzey surely doesn't.

And, Karzak. the biggest BIo fanboy this side of Visc and that side of Drakron.

Karzak is funny.

Yet you will buy it. Figures.

Beh. No one knows about the Evil Warrior tm, and the Old Man tm. You all suck. Anyways, as Grom poitning out Kazakian, SW names gives an initial bosst to sales; but it surely doesn't make bad games sale over the long haul. Sammael, sorry, but Targos is overrated. One of the ebst IE cities/towns? You nuts? Birchhaven, Kuldahar, the Barbarian Camp, Baldur's Gate,Athkatla, th Drow City, and Sigil are just a few examples of IE cities/towns thata re EASILY better that Targos. Easily. I agree with you. FO2, outisde of bugs, is easily better than FO1. Though FO1 is still great.

Opus thinks so. KOTOR's writing is far from perfect. i never said otherwise; but that's cool if he thinks PST writing is eprfect. Even though it's not even close. One of the most basic tenants of writing is to keep it. And, no, that doesn't mean dumb it down. It means, write what you mean in as clear and concise as possible. Basiclaly, words are preicous so don't waste them. This happened more than once in PST. Prime Example: The fool who spouted the hostry of the Blood War. That could have been shaved entire paragraghs and be true to its message instead we got a bunch of nonsenhical prose that added nothing to the story. Of course, there are examples in KOTOR that shows that that game also needed some improvement. Take the old man's story with the Evil Warrior tm's story. Why? Because E tm's story wer elong winded ones that added nothing to his character or the tale he was trying to tell. OM tm's stories had a clear, concise [purpsoe. He wins, EW tm loses.

Yup. That was the PST's biggest weakness as far the writing was concerned. People brag about the amount of text. however, what they forget you probably could have cut a good protion of that and the point would have been just as clear, and it would flowed much better.

I thought I already covered why I'm here. It's real simple. Inpout. Period. P.S. Am I really this important? Two threads in the same forum that have degenerated into 'what makes Volourn'. I'm just an Intenret gekk Loser. Don't get so worked up over me. Remember. the importnat thing is KOTOR2 is being made. geez, people. Get your priorities right.

No problemo.
