  1. I won't spoil any details about Cole other than that he is indeed a rogue. Agreed, for the most part, on the animations. They are still over the top at times but I don't mind them as much.
  2. Pork chitterlings, boiled for hours then lightly fried, with apple cider vinegar and hot sauce Please feel free to be jealous
  3. PC rogue, Sera, Varric, and Cole. Should be doable to have an all rogue party but I'm not sure how well that will play without a tank as I'm not sure how durable they are or how well their avoidance passives work in practice. It seems like with the right specs you can just ping pong the enemy between them but I haven't played anything other than mage.
  4. You can pause outside of tactical view, I think. I haven't played since last week but I'm pretty sure it's the ctrl key or something I haven't played any AssCreed games but replace that with The Elder Scrolls and I guess I would agree with that.
  5. Just off the top of my head, around this time last year That's not the answer to my question. He didn't point it at the cops.... He reached for the gun. Not a huge difference. I don't think white kids running around pointing guns (real or fake) at cops is a real statistic Buuuut as I mentioned a very similar incident to this was in the news about a year ago only the kid was white. I'm sure if you took 2 minutes to do a web search you would post less ignorant things.

  7. Back home in Tucson for a few days
  8. In terms of colds and flus, mostly they show up to work and get everyone else sick, leading to a lot of absent workers in a never ending cycle of back and forth contamination. Apparently many companies here think that's bottom-line profitable. I don't think I've worked at a place that didn't have at least 5 days of sick time per year...although I'm not surprised that it occurs, especially these days. Also, why did my quick-reply box suddenly become bright white? I usually go to work when I'm sick unless I'm near death and use my sick days as extra vacation. Of course, I work from home My reply box was the same because chrome was blocking something or other. Not sure if something changed with the site or my browser because I didn't care once I fixed it and also just lazy
  9. Pork belly ramen
  10. Where outside of that one Wynne scene that's all about her spirit keeping her alive? In Inquisition it has come up more than once already Not sure how often in earlier games but I'm sure it's referenced more than once
  11. I don't mourn the loss of health regen but I do miss the healing spells if for no other reason to keep some NPCs up
  12. Magical healing exists in some cutscenes so its removal was purely a gameplay decision
  13. I'm not very familiar with Skyrim or Oblivion but it does remind me a bit of FarCry 3 with all the capturing of locations and random activities. A lot of the activities are just finding things like shards and telescope-like things (the name escapes me at the moment) which prompts a fill in the constellation mini game. Also, some treasure map stuff and collect x of y or close all the breaches. Some of the platforming puzzles are a little wonky since you don't have very fine control over your characters movement but there isn't much of it. The few maps that I've been to outside of Val Royeaux have all been fairly large but even VR was bigger than I expected when I heard it was just the marketplace. My main gripes so far are that I spend so much time running from place to place and that the camera is still much too close for my tastes. The mounts help a bit with the running but you lose the banter which to me has been enjoyable so far. That said, I'm having fun with it even with all the content padding. The bottom line is that it isn't the game that I want Bioware to make but it's good for what it is
  14. Yes, but I wouldn't recommend it. It's hard to move your whole party around like that and there is a lot of running around
  15. How bad? Not terribad but it plays smoother with a controller imo
  16. I'm not a big fan of the keyboard and mouse controls. Considering just plugging in a controller
  17. I thought the one with Kevin Costner was decently entertaining
  18. I haven't seen any of the last two seasons of Supernatural. I have some catching up to do
  19. Yes, I'm going to be playing it from South Korea at 8 AM Denver time
  20. I think Sawyer is a good designer, possibly even a great one but I think we just have a fundamental difference of opinion on some things, balance and magic/wizards specifically. I'd like to see what he can do with another setting where I have less strong feelings about certain particulars like sci-fi or modern day something or other. I'm still looking forward to PoE even though I may end up playing on easy or cheating just to get the combat over with but that's not poor design as much as it's just not my preference. All my concerns may even turn out to be nothing by the time the game releases but either way I wish Sawyer and Obsidian nothing but success and will once again likely be first in line to back whatever they have planned next
  21. Take care Nep
  22. Welcome back LC!
