What the hedgefund is DSIII?

Precisely. "Don't worry old man. you're not an idiot. You're just a sinner. Have a beer."

Business?

It was the setting and quality of the work which made PST superb. Plus a willingness to focus game play on story and not punching everything in sight. Now, stop and think for a second. Do you REALLY think that console gamers are going to pump their bucks into such a game? Such a game might make money. But putting assets into that game, rather than seeking a mass market game would be commercially retarded. At least in terms of first and second order dynamics. There MIGHT be some sort of payoff in establishing a studio's brand, and fan loyalty/fan kudos. But I doubt it would justify the expense. Ironically such a payoff would be less valuable for someone like Obsidian, who already have gold standard classics in their brand.

Always keen to build bridges with my enemies I thought I'd post a thread which LoF and I can agree on ...at least in terms of the problem. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-south-asia-13264301 In brief, India is seeing a pronounced trend for families to abort female foetuses. Male babies are seen as stronger breadwinners and continuations of a family, while girls are seen as a dead end. So it struck me that this is literally a case of equal rights being denied and leading to MDK. I think that's pretty ****ed up, and underlines the need for a society to give equal positive potential to both sexes.

I just had a thought. Would it comfort those bible-bothering loons if we spread the word that the Rapture had in fact happened, just to other people?

It would if it started coughing flames out the top when action got really intense.

Sorry about delay in replying. thanks everyone for trying to grapple with this. - Yes the drive is recognised. I can access it and play music. - I _believe_ I used to be able to move files around on it. - I have tried disabling what I _think_ is file protection. 'Nothing' happens. - Error message reads: well, there isn't one. deleting, copying, moving are all disabled. Don't even show up in the right click list.

Who the fork?

That is properly genius.

Bugger. I just clicked on the damn thread out of habit, going through the forum.

Talking about that inflata-house I had the notion last night that you could use it like an arterial stent to support quake camaged buildings. Presumably.

Back from another wedding. Spent first evening wondering what offence I'd caused to have this rather cracking little brunette keep taking the p*** by excessively flirting with me. Last night finally dawned on me that she was serious.

I must say I was extremely disappointed with the absence of follow through on any of the characters (as has already been mentioned in this thread). These were very powerful people with powerful themes. Yet where was the story?

Reduced LOD, whatever that is, and no longer use quick save. I wonder if the quick save thing is something to do with STEAM? I have no idea. Just wildly speculating.

You take that back! That's my sister!

Ouch.

I intend to do some planking about midnight tonight, or as I call it 'streety resty time'.

I don't know about you chaps, but wild horses wouldn't make me look at a thread I'm being told to look at.

Given that, going by the rate of accusations by other members, we're all idiots anyway...

OK, I'm sold. Going on the to buy list.

he damn well isn't. Althugh his loser mates are. I had Drizzt chase one of my party around in circles while his companions were explosively pounded, before hammering him with 6 lower magic resistance spells, and a greater malison, as a prelude to massive misfortunate death. Didn't manage to polymorph him into a squirrel though. Now that really would have been hilarious. Could have given Boo someone to play with.

Well, here's hoping the update fixed the crashes.

On the plus side you don't have my problem of waking up and trying to just walk forward.

Mine keeps crashing like a pre-war biplane. Back to the bad old days of one crash every ten minutes or so. Driving me nuts. But it's also stopping me wasting all day playing it.
