I'm not even playing Civ4 anymore <_< Stupid HoI2. Hence why I was wondering if there were any reasons if I should pick this one up nevertheless. In any case, a GalCiv2 demo is coming out this week, for those who didn't know.

Additional question: how do you guys feel this game is compared to Civ4? In what ways is it better?

Yeah, some quick detective work found a similar conclusion. Too bad. Looked like a good potential purchase.

Okay, so the game is shipping to North America. Isn't this supposed to be a surprisingly good game? Why aren't you losers talking about it? Any plans on a demo? .... Does it use Starforce?

Well, it bodes better than Morrowind.

I am John Romero!

It's probably based on level. I'm pretty far in the plot, but it's only since I've been lvl 10+ (and not following the storyline at this time) that I've been seeing Dwarven/Elven equipment everywhere.

I haven't really seen any of that yet.

No matter your impressions on the game, for better or worse, some reviews are pretty pathetic.

Nick and me are *considering* DMing again for the Obs crowd. *Considering*.

It's not roleplaying unless you're a pyromaniac.

The last few Dark Brotherhood quests have gotten less interesting (since being a Silencer). A shame, really. I think the highlight of the questline was the manor one.

Wait, are any of you planning on being DMs for NWN2 once it comes out, in terms of setting up sessions for us forumites?

Obsidian dude Erik Novales did a presentation on the NWN2 toolset last week at GDC. Get the powerpoint here https://www.cmpevents.com/sessions/GD/S1628i1.ppt (spotted at NWN2News). There are some pretty cool slides in there. NWN2's toolset functionality is pretty impressive; makes NWN1's look archaic in comparison. I can't wait to start modding. But the game isn't out yet

This one will be hard to judge until we get it in our hands. First-person melee is one tough duck.

I would put it in the 60's or 70's, which is a step up from Morrowind's single digits <_<

Haha, I would throw this game into a ditch right this instant if NWN2 was released

Wait, you've got the wrong Shadowfax, alanschu.

Get in line, loser. I like to put on my Chosen One cape and save the world <_<

Well, they're pretty mainstream and have high production values.

Alright, finding the 4th star map was much more enjoyable than the other ones. That was a fun mission, actually. Good sense of urgency. Next up, some sort of ceremony. I'm not sure how far I am in the storyline, but perhaps there isn't that much left to it? Either way, I'll go finish the Dark Brotherhood quests first, just in case. Of the DB questline, here are the additional ones I've done: 1) Investigation hot sweaty loving hot sweaty loving 2) Poison 3) Manor

VAMPIRE NINJAS

I'm still using the default healing spell too

Which is why I'm not dismissing Bio's upcoming MMORPG completely yet. It'll be interesting to see their approach to it, and how far (if at all) they plan on breaking away from the current mold.

I'm lucky I didn't have that problem. The game runs fine. I don't know how the old BR graphics looked like, but I'm really enjoying the aesthetic appeal of the sprites here.
