Blarghagh

I don't recall the original, but Megaman 2 for the NES definitely has health bars.

Gfted1 beat me to it. Anywhere except Way Off Topic, I tend to read more than I post. I'm not one for speculation and most news gets posted before I get to it because I get by far most of my video game news from this board. It's much more reliable than gaming magazines. I'm sure if Way Off Topic added to my post count, it would be substantially higher. I'm sorry you feel that way. Have you considered using the ignore preferences to improve your experience?

Do you currently consider it an unsafe place?

Thanks guys, I'll do my best to prove worthy of the position. This community has been a part of my life for ten years now and it is, by far, the best community I have had the pleasure of being a part of - I don't take this lightly. I have no intention of bossing anyone around - I don't feel that's a part of what a moderator does. I agree. I suppose True Neutral could imply some measure of objectivity? But this is a really old screen name. Haha, thanks. I know what I'm getting in to. It's not my first rodeo.

Guessed my native language (Dutch) third, after Norwegian and English. Thought I had a standard American accent, or a US Black/Ebonics accent, or Singaporean. That's quite a group.

Game of Thrones... That was painful to watch. Ugh.

I felt Wolverine was reduced to a plot device. Any time he actually gets to do something it's relate exposition to the other characters and get taken out of the action, whether by his opponent, or by having temporal seizures. He spent pretty much every action sequence incapacitated.

Days of Future Past was surprisingly good. It goes a long way in fixing the franchise, but as a result of what it has to do never really comes together as a film about a team. Not the perfect X-Men movie, but a step in the right direction. And the Quicksilver sequence is the best sequence in the franchise since Nightcrawler attacking the White House. And looking at that post-credits stinger, looks like they're taking on my favourite X-Men villain next. Looking forward to it.

I don't see why everyone is surprised. The idea is thrown around several times in the books (Henry Wu laments that Hammond didn't let him make "better" dinosaurs) - in fact, the first novel confirms only a few animals had frog DNA, other gaps were filled using other types of DNA. There's even a Carnotaur in the Lost World that can change color similarily to cuttlefish. This has always been in the franchise.

I attribute this to Scarface syndrome. Walt is not the hero, but people seem to think he is. Her character gets seen as an annoying nag holding the hero back, but she's really not.

I just feel it doesn't fit in - for the same reason I have a mod on top of TSLRCM that removes Kaevee again. Bad dialogue, bad voice acting and encounters that just aren't that interesting. Don't get me wrong, I'm super impressed with the people that managed to make it, but it's more of a "try out once" thing than something that makes the experience better. More than anything it makes me think that while the ending was cut due to the rushed schedule, these things were cut simply because they weren't good enough.

For a Jedi Watchman/Sith Assassin, I've had good experiences going single saber and upgrading it to increase the crit range, maxing out critical strike and focusing on stealth. It makes the game a lot longer, though, because sneak attacking all enemies is time consuming and sneaking past them is a waste of xp points.

Sucks about the crashing. I'd help you but mine works great. Try the kotor2 pcgamingwiki page, they tend to know what causes problems. Regarding dual-wield or single saber, what kind of skills are you focusing on? What kind of prestige class are you going to take? If you're a more physical character that kills stuff with your lightsaber, go with dual-wielding two sabers because your damage output will be higher - especially if you take the speed force powers and learn the flurry line to give you the extra attacks per round. If you're focusing on killing your enemies with force powers, go for single saber with the Dueling feat for the defense bonus to minimize damage you take between casting.

Good luck with your situation, Labadal. That really sucks.

Dual-wield.

That's so cool - I had no idea. Thanks a million, time to take a whole new approach to my next playthrough.

Yeah, if you try to completionist this, you'll go insane. You will always be missing stuff. Anyway, the game is so eay that any build is feasible, so I'd say just do what you want and don't worry too much about stats. My last playthrough was a gunslinging Guardian/Weapon Master. :D Rosj - What do you get if you take a negative influence playthrough? I never tried it. I didn't realize you got different content from it. I'd honestly advise against the Droid Planet. The mod is impressively done and much props to the creators, but the actual content is awful - I feel the experience is better without it.

So, BioWare intended to make a KotOR 3 after they refused to make KotOR 2 because they decided to focus on their own IPs, recommending KotOR 2 be made by Obsidian instead. But BioWare liked KotOR 2 so much that they decided to make a KotOR 3, and then they decided NOT to do it and make Dragon Age instead, which up to the upcoming THIRD sequel is still a ripoff of KotOR 2?

Oh God of Progress, have you degraded or forgot us?

Quicksilver can be used because he's also an iconic Avengers character - however, they can't acknowledge him being a mutant or him being the son of Magneto. Current theory on the internet is that they're rewriting him and his sister to be inhumans instead of mutants.

With a name like that, I can only expect more awesomeness in her future.

I had to defend De'Arnise Keep with whatever the Keep provided, and I had to choose who became the top thieves guild in Baldur's Gate II. The final battle in Baldur's Gate 1 happened in a place the Bhaalspawn was familiar with. I'm not saying there aren't similarities, it's just that pretty much everything you say is so incredibly generic and in thousands of other games. It can hardly be called ripping off.

I haven't seen it, but apparently it was designed to wipe away The Last Stand and Wolverine Origins from the X-Men continuity, so I'm fine with it either way.

Trailer to Disney's Big Hero 6, loosely based on an obscure Marvel comic. It takes place in the portmanteau culture of the city of San Fransokyo and is about a kid who builds a robot and then gets asked to join a group of superheroes. Disney Animation Studios has been knocking them out of the ballpark recently, with Tangled, Wreck-it Ralph, Frozen and their oscar win for the short Paperman (which is magnificent) and this looks quite fun. I'm not familiar with the comic, but I doubt it's faithful because this seems nothing like a Marvel property, but I'm interested with how it will turn out.

Great, does this mean the virus from I Am Legend is also going to happen?
