Tale

I think they look better than Baldur's Gate II portraits. I have to import a Neverwinter Nights portrait every time I play it, nowadays. Though I had trouble finding good ones in Neverwinter Nights when that was first released, too. Baldur's Gate 2 portraits fell into two categories. Complete ponce or identical twin of a party member.

The display of alternate morality systems and conflicting culture shift in Morrowind...

It's very unresponsive and clunky to use, though. But I like the use of color.

A few of them were nice. The ones that had you go look for someone or dump bodies. "I need potions" can rot, though.

That is a nice looking UI.

I would make a distinction between a fetch and carry quest that opens up a new area at the destination and a fetch and carry quest that does not. For the former, it's functionally a key that helps you progress. For the latter, it's just making you waste time travelling between two distant areas.

But once you destroy everything in Guerilla, what next? Though I did love that game. Destroy these two buildings! *run into one, destroying stairs so nobody can follow* *nuke the building next door* *jump out window and nuke the first building* *FLEEE*

I threaten lots of people with death. It's practically my hello. But yeah... I'd be kind of scared of that woman. RSPCA charges should hopefully suffice.

The problem with the Mako is largely that there is absolutely no credible threat to it. The Council doesn't need Spectres, they just need a couple of Mako drivers and they could end every war ever.

Whose brilliant idea was it for each of the sections of Mad Moxxi to require nearly two hours? GEARBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOX I'm not even sure if you can save without having to restart. That'd be stupid to not be able to, but I don't want to risk it.

My point exactly.

You think Fedex guys can't open boxes?

I revoke your right to hold opinions.

What's funnier is that they actually hold the trademark for "droid" The droid (Motorola Android phones) specifically mention using it under license. Which I thought was bizarre when I saw the legal. I support enforcement of the trademark in this case, since it's using the Jedi name, but "levitating" is utter nonse.

Is it that bad? I haven't replayed ME2 since before the Hammerhead was released, but I never imagined...

That was kind of awesome. I initially thought that Masq was getting his ass kicked once the High Templars started showing up. Then I double checked his pop...

I just realized that Grom isn't on the list. He'd make a wonderful Sorcerer.

Only if he's bigoted against his own kind will I accept this indignity.

Halfling? HALFLING! RABLGRBLARGHLAMBASTEDFLABERDAGNABIT I hate Halflings.

Like what? Did they have you buying new versions of the exact same spell every 7 levels when I wasn't looking? Class trainers? Was raiding implemented? Mana? Health regen between battles? Remove the need for sleep/extended rest altogether? Everytime I see this, the only similarity between 4E and MMOs they can bring up is balanced play and the fact that the Fighter isn't doing only auto-attacks anymore. Which is hardly taking a cue from MMOs and more recognizing a blatant problem of old editions and fixing it, something MMOs just happened to beat them to. Even the trinity system is a classic of D&D back to 1e. It's just more necessary now since the group Wizard isn't going to one-shot the enemy before the Fighter can even engage.

I think it's more likely that the idea it's aimed at MMO players is utter nonse. Similar to how people claimed 3e was aimed at Diablo players.

How can one claim that a game built on D20 is similar to a TPS?

I take offense to all three of those descriptions. I've never been accused of being hip or cool in my life. And I've not touched an MMO in over a year.

Who you calling "younger?" 4e is the only PnP RPG I actually own books for.

o/ Excellent. If we have enough, I might do a succession game. Otherwise I might do a solo let's play to drum up general interest. Been wanting to story out a sky fortress game, anyway.
