The Witcher
Why was it directed at me? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Because I completely misread your post I guess it was more towards Rhomal "

Vampire Masquerade
So $50. x 100k = 5million. Seems like a lot but minus the retail stores cut, minus a few million from development costs, then the developers cut... I dont think the publisher made much to brag about. And thats assuming all 100k units were at full price which we all know isnt the case. Here in Boston about a month after release it dropped to $39. from $49. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> 100k units is not that much at all. I don't even know if it made 100k...I remember seeing a number a while ago that had it around 80k.

NHL is back
As an Oiler fan I have to watch my team play Calgary, Colorado, Vancouver, and Minnesota 8 times each.

Oblivion: PC Gamer Praises in Preview
I agree, and find the game world to be more interesting if it seems more alive.

Bloodlines
That it is. I do stealth kills with it as much as I can, mostly in Grouts Mansion. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Where did you get the Katana for Grout's Mansion?

Vampire Masquerade
I think it struggled to sell 100k units.

Replayability of games
We are cursed men. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It's not the memory that is the problem. It's just the type of person you are I guess. I have an excellent memory, and usually have no problems remembering the details of a plot. But I can still play through a good game many times. In my mind, a good game is a good game

Actually, Diablo doesn't have respawns unless you leave the game.

Fallout 2 Query
They were a huge fan of Clint Eastwood's Spaghetti Westerns too. But I think I recognize more Monty Python references than anything else.

Icewind Dale 2
You could use the wilderness skill to decent effect, even if you put zero skill points into it. Though you likely needed a boost with some attribute modifiers though. It rolled a die of some sort (d20 I imagine), and even if you failed one time you could keep trying until you succeeded.

Vampire Masquerade
I don't know....I heard about the game long before it was out...when it still had multiplayer. PC games don't tend to be marketted all that much to begin with.

Canadian Election
It's just rhetoric during election campaigns. The current Liberal Government has lots of dealings with the United States. It's just stupid fear-mongering. It's a stupid thing to do because it's not like the US president isn't going to hear about it.

Canadian Election
Then what the heck are you talking about?

I'm glad I'm interning this semester :D

FFS it's not a PnP game.

So in other words you're just trolling the thread.

Norway
no, i don't think so. it will make them worse. that's what i meant by the resent. anybody that poured his life (specifically his) into an equal position alongside a woman that is there simply because the law requires it will harbor great resent. further, opinions of said women will be ignored more often than not and they will have accomplished little other than an increase in pay. taks <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Except that it has been working. The resent is a short-term cost. It's not going to have immediate results, and those that implement it don't expect it to.

RTS Fans: Medieval 2 Total War Announced
I haven't touched it for a long time either...I think because it's too addictive. Though I'm just addicted to Civ at the moment.

Fallout 2 Query
Hmmm...what is that Silent Dead perk? I can't remember my Perks as my small arms guy. He did have a perception of 10 though, which would probably help in spotting you

Fallout 2 Query
It is good. Though I'm sure my small arms specialist will annihilate your unarmed guy

Is a truce possible?
And where is their empire now? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Many of those colonies peacefully ceded from the Empire. She is right, your original comment was dumb. It's not like the US soldiers are holding people at gunpoint (your words) saying have an election, and forcing people out to the polling stations.

Icewind Dale 2
I remember playing it with 2 characters as my friend. I was a Fighter/Paladin and he was a Drow Fighter/Mage I think. I just took the Fighter levels to get the weapon specialization feats though, I think he was a bit more balanced class wise.

The only decisions you have in combat in KOTOR are whether or not to use a feat/item.

What are you playing now?
I was never patient enough with unarmed fighting. I always preferred blowing holes in people with the Gause Rifle. I could snipe them in the eyes before they even knew I was in the area.
