LOL! Credibility. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It makes sense. I mean, if NWN2 lost 2 points for being a few months late, how many points do you think FO3 loses for being a few years late? :D <{POST_SNAPBACK}> sidenote: think about SW episode 1-3

Mission - A becouse of B

<_< LINK I so hate that people always think charisma=beauty. Even a goblin can be charismatic if he has LOTZ of power (or a pact with a demon)

Play Arcanum. Swords with a bit of technology thrown in. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> More than a bit. Seeing as it has steampowered-armor in it. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> translation: Power Armor

Dark Troll?

The system is balanced, but not very logical. I heard it explained that a Wizard reads all the magic mumbo-jumbo except the last word which is the "Salenu samatka!!" part they shout when they spell and that starts the actual spell. One thing that is very strange is how they can read an entire scroll of a spell theyve never seen before in just a few seconds and cast from it all in the same round " <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Because their high intelligence helps them out? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> and arcane knowledge, its like a language of its own

So a class that is apparently cursed with frequent memory loss is also tasked with keeping track of a myriad different ingredients. "I wonder if it was the firefly gizzards in the fireball spell or if it was cinnamon..." Sounds like a disastrous combination to me. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> not if you create a character based on the funny site of wizardry 1. make it to look like an old man 2. make it semi-senile 3. make it talkative 4. get him on an adventure with lot of players who thought he is a powerfull archmage, and already payed him for his services PS: of course he starts like anyone else on level one...he was once an archmage, but forgot how to be one :D

as i said the armor profiency is it all albout, like in real life, your character will get used to the heavier, bulkier ones. (get on lvl1 light armor, lvl3 medium, lvl9 heavy) also he/she has to try to make it possible to cast spells in them without problems (get on lvl 12 still spell) so if you manage to find an armor what does not modify your casting chances, Great! BUT if not, then you can still cast one level differenced still spells, and that means lvl 5 spells on lvl 12. So whats the difference between normal mages and armored ones in 3.5 ? -armored ones have either an elven (or similar) magic-friendly armor, or they cast one spell lever lower than others (but thats no big difference on lvl11-13) -armored ones are....well, armored, and with some nice, hastened, damage resistant (or whatever full plate armor you find) you are more able to survive great fights (and armor looks ussually nicer than robes too...and its SHINY!) -don't forget the nicest, first priority of armor: defense. You will have high AC, like fighters As mentioned i also like to combine this with elves, they have profiency in rapiers (good critical range), longswords (most powerfull/legendary weapons are longswords), crossbows (can pierce in real life full body armor), and of course longbows (the best ranged magic weapons are ussually longbows) Also there is a bonus to this char design in MP: an enemy of you will think you are a warrior before you burn his backside with some chain lightnings, or summon some hordes of monsters on him

minor spark of hope gets bigger that there is an other version with less problems

"...NWN2 allows one to become one of the Nine ..." And this is simply wrong, it shouldn't be possible to be one of the nine <_< so it becomes a 'ten'? or you just kick out of them one and take the place? only a step further and the prestige class allows you to become a God ....or a prestige class to bacome Elminster or Drizz't The Nine are unique, as all other identities, SHOULDN'T be able to do that. ...The only overpowered possible prestige class i could think about to be is the 'Bhaal Spawn', and I really suggest to change 'the nine' to 'chosen of mystra', it would be much better.

get Sorcerer on Cha 16, you increase it later on all 4 levels other points at char creation mix it as you wish it ( i ussally go with average ones), but I suggest Int to be atleast 14, and increase social skills from the bonus skill points some interesting caster: if you decide you want something not usual, get a 12-16 strenght, and get all the armor abilities on the appropiate levels, if you don't find any nice 'o% magicmakesboom' armor (and i guess you won't), then you can switch on lvl 11-14 to normal magic heavy armors with the little help of the still spell metamagic. I play this kind of 'Armored Battle Mage' when I play an elf (quite nice with an elven chainmail/full plate, and saves a feat) This way you also don't need to multiclass, so you don't lose precious caster levels My suggestion for a little hotheaded, but intelligent elven mage: sorcerer: Str: 14 Dex: 10 Con: 12 Wis: 8 Int: 16 Cha: 15 (improve Cha all the times, a bigger Int at start means a bit more skill points on the earlier levels, better than the other way around, and a mage gets a good will save, so no problem that -1 from the low Wis) The real and only thing why a wizard could be better that you save up a lot of ability points (could decrase the Cha till 8 - gruffy warmage-), and put those on Int and the physical scores. Hope i helped a bit PS: I ussually do the sorcerer way, and pretend im a dragonblooded guy/gal...in NWN1 I always got 10 lvl-s in that drake class

Yes. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> don't forget the lot of tourists who buy cosmetics (and anything else) in europe, even if its the same as by them at home.

One question: Why the heck are you in this community then? PS: Don't say becouse you love Hades, that doesn't work now <_<

What's Intertron? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Errm ... the internet. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> So why not say "Internet"? Why "Intertron"? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> T.R.O.N. ?

add hungarian to the list

don't think those aren't there, they already released a patch, and work on the second

It is? Where? Everyone I have spoken to says that it won't arrive until tomorrow. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> in the stores friend, in the stores. some people already had their first heartattack

high-tech can be included, but it should be OLD high-tech, like powersuits or plasma guns, witch have already been included

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Exactly, the problem.

as i said Gamestar here has a copy. i also talk about the rp, the GAME part :ph34r: a very last spark of hope: maybe the version i have isn't the same what goes into the stores? not too much of a chance there <_<

being optimist isn't same with having high expectations, what i expected was: Having a game atleast with the same possibilities as NWN (NOT), a better graph (NOT by chars), and it should know what the so named premiums and expansions did too (NOT, no horsies and such) ...if you think about it, hoping that a game knows atleast that much as its previous episode, isn't weird

I don't get 300 in a year...or two if i count right

If you know what i ussually write, and in what style, you know that i am quite an 'Ultra-optimist', my negative reaction should now show HOW much I am disappointed :'(

he isnt a sith or jedi so its not quite right to vote him/it

it seems NWN2 can't even do what NWN1 could <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Quoted from the same thread at the Bio boards: I think the dude has a very good point, and some of you doomsayers need to lighten up. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> 1. not quite true, it was one block, but those could have looked like 3 same faces with 3 different hairs 2. absolutely not true, had some characters with black hair and a silver lock, or even more possibilities 3. true 4. it depends on what you mean 'accessories' 5. that was actually better 6. much better graphs? maybe dogs look better or the goblins And for the end: i did not originally mean only the graphs, you have less possibilities in modding (doh i admit WHAT it can do is easy to make with it) the Hungarian Gamestar has already a copy...and I am not dancing around becouse what i have seen till now (but think on it: a second part of a game should be more. more in story OR graphs or something, not less. What you can't do in NWN2 what you were able in NWN1 -not mentioning clothes, only char- are modifying weight, having tatoos...and having female/nice faces <_< )
