The funny thing is that *I* already won the console war.

I don't know what Eldar's talking about, but I'm all for going after him with a pitchfork.

Depends what he means by 'assets', and by 'all'.

Pics!

When I think about DnD made in real-time, I shudder too! Then I cry myself to sleep.

Don't put words in his mouth.

No, ninjas eat YOU for breakfast, while sleeping.

Maybe if you're not a ninja. Loser.

Well, the fact that some players can't ponder CRPGs as being any fun without combat/violence is fairly telling. It also showcases, perhaps, how the medium is still in its infancy.

Just finished Chapter 1. My first impressions were how beautiful HDR (from the intro) actually is in this game, as opposed to just having the game set on the Sun like most other games abusing bloom do. Frankly, an intro made in CG would have been a step down. Check it out here http://youtube.com/watch?v=3XXjAWUCqYc&sea...e%202%20episode The banter is a lot more condensed, but it also kind of makes the monologue even more obvious. Not necessarily a bad thing, since that's how HL works. I'm definitely seeing the appeal of more devs doing episodic content if it means more condensed gaming time. We'll see if Obs follows suit with DD mods for NWN2.

And that's how we like our games!!!

The sad thing is that all the games you're mentioning are or are coming soon to PC

..... I don't know what you're talking about.

I think you should murder him for good measure.

What do you think is easier to produce mass amounts of? Dialogue that doesn't make players throw the game away in disgust, or lots of stuff to murder and ravage?

Anachronox is awesome if you can stand JRPGs.

Yeah, combat never feels forced in games. "Nice hat!" "You will die!!!"

Btw, no radial menu in NWN 2. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Thank God! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Read here http://nwn2forums.bioware.com/forums/viewt...475550&forum=95

I dunno, I haven't been following it really since I finished it so many years ago, so I have no idea which mods are good and whatnot. In terms of XP, there should be a way to play it, I just didn't really look into it. But that's just me being lazy/awesome.

Just bear in mind that Wizzie8 is very combat-intense, some of which can become quite tedious when there are too many underpowered opponents and you have to wait for all of them to make their move. Otherwise, very fun and challenging combat system. I love the 'personality' system. Though, actually, I tried to reinstall it at some point, but it doesn't seem to work with WinXP.
