Eclecticist

I remember the first time I played through Vampire the werewolf was damn tricky.

I just played through Bloodlines for the third time, finally as a Malkavian. It wasn't quite as rewarding...I forgot how much emphasis was placed on combat.

No wonder Sawyer fluffed on IWD2...he was too busy trying to be cool.

I keep telling myself to play through KOTOR II again but I really just can't be stuffed.

I used to love this game but I haven't played it in at least two years... The combat was kind of spastic, though. Never got into it.

Does anyone know how to fix a compression error when trying to install? My CDs used to work fine.

I prefer to play through the game properly.

North by Northwest is one of my all time favourites. Can't get enough of Grant.

I can't play NWN anymore. It feels so soulless.

I love this game. But I am extremely annoyed. I went to reinstall it and apparently my CD3 is corrupt. GAH! I don't want to have to buy it again. GAH!

The Infinity Engine is responsible for allowing many a marvel to enter my pants region.

Yeah. I would totally recommend that.

Deus Ex. I'm saving blings.

That'd be me.

Yes, the first one was better.

The only thing that film succeeded at was spectacle. But even a film based on visual stimulus cannot function properly without a decent story.

I saw Pirates of the Carribean 2: Dead Man's Chest. It was terrible. You would think that sequels with hundred-million dollar budgets could at least procure a HALF-DECENT SCRIPT for Christ's sake...it IS possible to make a Hollywood-friendly Epic with big fights, slapstick comedy and CGI whilst still maintaining a functionable story. PotC2 just jumped all over the place. Depp got very little opportunity to do ANYTHING with his role as Jack Sparrow...actually, all of the characters were extremely one-dimensional and what little conflict there was in the script had such poor (and at times, random) execution that it didn't feel like conflict at all. BLAGH. To top it all off the film didn't even end. I will go and see PotC3 as I believe in seeing things through to the end so you can judge them in their entirety, but I am not going to be looking forward to it with high hopes.

Now now, that's not nice.

I love TLJ. I really want to play Grim Fandango, too.

The news post was blatantly and very obviously a joke. I mean come on...

Good idea for a thread. My first console cRPG was Phantasy Star. My first PC cRPG was Baldur's Gate.

This is great news. English NoTR! PLEASE!

Apparently Starcraft on the N64 worked quite well.

The story is the most important aspect of any cRPG. The adventure aspect has to be strong and the plot needs to drag you in. I can't take a game seriously unless I am sucked in by the plot. I can enjoy it, but not take it seriously. Secondary to this is affecting the gameworld through choices, character creation/evolution, enjoyable combat and rich dialogue.
