Malkavian, ****(GA+***G)ASJG darn it.

Best game ever this, best game ever that. You lot have obviously never played Oblivion.

You could drop by and visit ~Di at the same time, too!

Shhhh, we're not allowed to talk about PST on these forums, or one of the mods is going to hunt us down.

Soundtrack is all that matters. Though I want MCA too.

Why are you so pessimistic? Because people like bok, jags, jim and calax live there. I mean, who WOULDN'T be suicidal?

He didn't ask 'who should I murder?'

In before lock.

You mean, aside from an unmoderated spamming spree?

Maybe if you hadn't named it Arx Fatalis.

We all know who would win the 'worst mod ever' award. :ph34r:

I mean, we've survived Battlewookie, right? Hi Battlewookie!

They should add a real :darque: smilie. /suck-up

I mean, er, yeah, he changed his name.

Puberty.

Yay! More rational and intelligent people to moderate over us!

Mutual exclusion is a myth.

Can I be renamed to Gray_Jedi_Knight1?

Have you been taking screenshots? It's not like I've been, like, you know, preparing an AAR or anything, like, chill? PBEM.txt

'Dialogues' become boring when they're freaking monologues. It has to be interactive in more ways than just 'go on, please, please just go on' virtually all the time. Dialogue has to feature a gameplay element, in which the player actively interacts and plays a part in said dialogue, not just be an exposition device. The conversation with Atris (I timed it! 45 mins!) is one of my favorite scenes because it WASN'T a monologue. You were defining your character at the same time as being fed relatively large amounts of information about your past. Would it have been more fun if it were full of narrative such as 'Atris leans back and strokes her chin, her icy glare piercing your eyes with hot sweaty hatred'? I'm not convinced. MCA isn't wrong, though. Economy of words is important. Be too overly verbose, and the player isn't even reading what you're writing. In which case, you've already lost. The thing, all that energy being spent on narrative and descriptions I would rather have invested into further character development and relationships, especially with party members. The amount of input those dudes get during dialogue is very appreciated, but please sir, I want some more. There's a lot of room for more interaction there. This was done much better in KOTOR2 than in PST, in which, intraparty interaction was pretty minimal - it was basically 'you and me' relationships. I'd give up narrative for this, especially when ample narrative isn't really that optimal an option anymore.

I want NWN2 DD mods.

That was the highlight of my day, Dark_Raven. Thank you.

That is indeed quite a puzzling question. I would go as far as claiming it is a VERY puzzling question.

I'm too busy being a profit

Shut up, the companies are doing us a huge favor by selling at such undercut prices, so don't you ever undermine that dedication to their customers.
