  1. Dragon Age's advertising has always been terrible. More melodramatic or NEW **** than the actual game turned out to be. Not that Origins didn't at least try to be dark, edgy, and brooding. They were just smart enough to toss in three characters that were actually FUN to balance it out. I only count 2, who's the third? Ohgren, Shale, and Alistair. Though Alistair's kind of a part timer. So maybe 2 1/2.

  3. That's not saying much. The official NWN campaigns killed my childhood.
  4. Sienna Guillory. Sienna Miller played The Baroness.
  5. I might like to see an Eberron game. Still unsure of how I feel about 4E realms. I like 4E itself, just not sure how I feel about the realms. Maybe it's just Cordell's writing for his novels that turning me off.
  6. 1 is the better game. Though I like lots of the features of 2, like mounts.
  7. I actually liked the previous two. For different reasons. The one was decent in its own right. Two was decent for a very very awkward straight adaption of the third game.
  8. I believe the official word is "it's the same tools as Dragon Age, we're looking into making an update."
  9. Jovovich is the only reason I didn't walk out on the last Resident Evil movie. Extinction, I think? It was so bloody awful. I've never even considered walking out on a movie before. Someone'll have to put a gun to my head to get me to see Afterlife.
  10. Hilarious.
  11. I seem to recall a claim that the coloring is meant to evoke previous sci-fi works. We've mostly seen the Blade Runner inspired areas. Notice the asian influence. But I don't remember where I heard that, so it could be completely wrong.
  12. But Starcraft >> WH40K Starcraft takes itself seriously. WH40K > Starcraft Sense of humor > Serious business
  13. I've tried replaying Longest Journey. It goes a looooot slower than I remember. And it's forever before you get the hilarious sidekick.
  14. Depends. When he examines them, does he find a shot that went in and out?
  15. Wait, is this the previously leaked behind closed doors gameplay?
  16. Still Dorfing in the fortress. This one hasn't been destroyed by a goblin ambush yet, but I expect the first to occur today. I hope I'm prepared. RAISE BRIDGES Just need to make sure the moat is ready. The guy who likes to fish outside is probably going to die. Maybe I should reel him in and just assume they're waiting for the chance to strike. After this fort dies, I'm building a sky fort.
  17. What did I do wrong oh dwarfy gods? Was it the lack of armor? They had weapons, I think... They definitely had training! A single ambush crushed EVERYONE. The flood entrance was a failure due to bad timing. I think it killed more of my military than the enemy. I guess I'll go with the standard drawbridge routine. LAAAAME And maybe I'll get my outside area set up before the ambushes. I was halfway done!
  18. I imagine that siezing profits (which are future profits at this point) is a lot harder. You basically have to repeatedly check in to get them. Seizing the inventory can be done up front and you no longer have to deal with them.
  19. Fantasy ME? Isn't that redundant? Sorry, sorry. That's just my bitterness at Space Opera. I'll skulk away now.
  20. I now want to build a sky fort in DF. Build a high tower that leads to a base on which I build a new fort high in the sky. That way, if I ever get particularly bored, I can just mine away the base of the tower and watch it all fall.

    He got Urist McDwarf (Dwarf Fortress) pretty quickly.
  22. They're not removing overhead from PC. Just consoles won't have it. Heck, look at Bos_Hybrid's post. They're working to keep tactical view for the PC. And were working on camera angles specifically for it.
  23. They're not treating the PC version any way in particular. They're treating all versions. The worst you can say is that they're trying to make it more like Mass Effect, which reflects on the better reception of Mass Effect. Not poor sales of DAO's PC version.
  24. Can you cite a source for it selling 'poorly?' As opposed to simply it not selling as well as the console versions.
  25. It's not sandbox, though. I seem to recall mkreku is a gigantic fan of Gothic.
