You would think that Obsidian would have learned this lesson from the complaints about K2 forcing lame characters to do a quest or be in your group. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Or maybe those complaints weren't as numerous as you would like to think they are. If people were really that adamant about forced party members in an RPG, they probably wouldn't have added them.

Good luck with that. Anyone know where I can find this?

Well, the idea is that with your satellite TV, you can get NHL Centre Ice. I think it's crap too. I hate seeing the 'Off Air' on the other Sportsnet stations I get. If it wasn't included in the package, I'd drop everything but Sportsnet West, since there's no reason for me to watch anything on a different Sportsnet Channel. The only reason why I would consider getting them is so that I could watch different hockey games, but they don't let me do that.

How much profit should they be making then? Making games isn't cheap, and if your game busts, you lose lots of money. Yeah, a game like WOW could probably charge less (not that it charges a whole lot), but why would they? They have millions of people playing right now, that find it perfectly okay to pay what they currently charge, so I see no reason why they should stop. I think you're out of luck. I doubt I'd do any differently than any of those companies if I was in their shoes.

Except that this doesn't follow the logic of the D&D universe, where it's possible to "hide" in plain sight of someone. Or be hidden in the middle of a flat tarmac in the middle of the sun. Heck, you can not-so-magically disappear from the view of someone while fighting them.

What?

That would definitely seem to be the case, given that these types of games went away from that formula, and don't seem to be going back any time soon.

Poor Volo. You should know that it's not uncommon for people to not bother commenting on things they like. It's the stuff that pisses people off that makes them vocal. This is undisputable.

Ah, I have had that happen before. However, if you feel like exploiting bugs that allow companions revive because you lure away the combatants, then I don't really see what there is to address. And people certainly were suggesting that they'd rather run back to the temple. Go back and read Pop's post. The issue was not about people reviving during a fight, but people reviving period, so I'm also not sure how I wouldn't be addressing the issue, when you seem to have confused the issue. You mentioned the revival of people during fights as an annotation to your complaint about reviving in general.

Perhaps. Don't place too high of expectations on the chap though. He's been through a lot, but he's still willing to try and find ways to contribute to your cause.

Your party members should not be reviving during fights. I have never seen that happen, unless my Cleric casts a resurrection spell on them or something. I disagree about it not lending itself to fun. I had a blast playing through the OC. And I don't find it to be a big break in the immersion. At least not any more of a break compared to running back to a temple to revive the person.

Perhaps I am not libertarian, because I do not feel that foreign aid should be stopped, particularly in the moment of a disaster.

I was not referring to the . Indeed, the finds a way to lend a hand.

Are you talking about the quickspell list you get by hitting F?

You see, all it looks like this decision has resulted in is eliminating the tedious journey back to the temple. And if someone gets gibbed (permanently killed), for most players it simply means it's time to reload. Yes, some people may be inconvenienced by it, but since (as you stated) all it really does is eliminate the need to waste time running back to a temple, it doesn't necessarily add all that much to the game if you stop and think about it. The only situation where it would make an impact is if you don't have access to a temple (say you're stuck in a dungeon). At which point, it becomes exceptionally easy for a game player to put themselves in a situation that becomes unwinnable. Especially if they are an inexperienced game player and have a bad habit of overwriting saved games! In the end, I think it results in less frustrated gamers, as I'm guessing only a small minority will consider it to truly be a detriment.

I didn't fix up the Golem either, but I'll suspect it'll take up a spot. And jags, that NPC will help you in your adventures, but I will not say how

Pffft, the old school Nintendo style music makes that better than the Lion one. I can almost see myself playing Megaman to that soundtrack.

I completed the Tor quest and held onto the shield as well. It's the only one that I noticed however.

Well, I was able to solve the problem by using the Dual Core Optimizer. Though if anyone would know how, that'd be great :D The only way I can think of is to load up the program, ALT-TAB, and then select a processor affinity and remove a core, but that seems clunky. Oh well, I can play again.

That link should be a bannable offense.

I just bought Splinter Cell: Double Agent, and I'm getting a wierd stutter while playing. Some people have commented that disabling the second core for the game fixed the problem. The thing is, I have never actually needed to disable the second core before, how exactly can I get Double Agent to only run on one core? Thanks!

Just more people to crush!

Sorry JB, I have doomed you to bad jokes and an insistence that his precious Maginot Line can hold up against the german aggressors in HOI2. What have I done!?!?

But being Republican means being against gay marriage homosexuality, abortion, and non-marital sex, or am I wrong in this? :ph34r: <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Not necessarily. THe party I'd probably vote for would be Republican, because I'm right wing economically, but I'm far left socially. Which I guess would make me a libertarian. And I am not against homosexuality, abortion, nor non-marital sex.

Where have you been? Old news! Soon Joseph will be CEO, taking it away from you!
