Tale

I was thinking more about a research assistant in the Antarctic. Because I have no musical aptitude. But then again, neither do most DJs.

I fail to see how any assumption made without any evidence can be considered reasonable. Unless we count the Bioware Lucasarts deal as evidence! Then it's reasonable. .>

I think I'd like to work at one of the poles. I wonder what job openings are available.

This is my complaint against Vista. Of all of Vista it sounds like there's only one feature that would be of interest to my demographic (mid 20s gamer). And that's a feature that was planned for DX 10 but eventually cut. I doubt Microsoft even bothered doing research into what consumers wanted when they designed and built Vista. Or if they did, they didn't bother asking any of the gamers. All we frelling want is a smaller OS footprint and increased performance, for the most part. Smaller install size (less bloat), is up there too.

I'm thinking about re-upping my EVE Online subscription. I want to try out the new Amarr Battlecruiser and finish my training for Command Ships. I'm dying to fly in a Damnation, Absolution, and Harbinger. Holy crap, they have Heavy Interdictors now? WANT!!!

It's a new magazine over information about sequels they'd like to see. It also talks about Gears of War 2, Hitman 5, a new Tomb Raider, and an Elder Scrolls MMO. Most of it is just them saying what is already known about the prospects of these games. And it's the old Feargus quote about how they would like to make it.

I need to go ahead and add The Longest Journey to my list, too. (hi-five, Mus?) I might also put PS:T on there, but have only played through it once.

It's Archie, isn't it?

Twin Towers tetris is one of my favorite gifs.

I'm a fan of the color purple.

Now Tale is thinking about Natalie Portman in a bikini holding an AT4.

**** yeah, he's playing Trials and Tribulations.

An imposter!

The article said nothing except that Obsidian wants to make it. The picture consisted of the old Nihilus face shot.

The nice thing about Shadowrun, to my mind, was that you could take from it what you wanted and leave the rest. I always see it described as a fantasy-cyberpunk hybrid, and I suppose it is, but the games we ran way back when I was 13, and the online MUSHing I did in the system, always focused much more on the cyberpunk aspect rather than the fantasy stuff - of which there's not really all that much. Yeah, there's elves and orks and dwarves and trolls, and yeah, there's magic, but it's not exactly like it's medieval-era fantasy archetypes wandering around 2070s Seattle. I really do wish someone else controlled the rights to that game, though. Always thought it's the most ideal system for an MMORPG ever created. Fantasy doesn't mean medieval. Once you start breaching into elves and magic, you're well into fantasy. You got off the bus and set up shop in fantasy. It's the difference between the cliche and the archetype. The medieval world that looks back to LoTR for inspiration is the cliche.

If we're getting technical, is the 'RPG' the launcher or the projectile itself? RPG is the entire weapon. It is both launcher and rocket. RCL rounds supposedly more closely resembles conventional artillary shells.

If the only way to progress is to change into a playstyle you're not into, then do what I did. Say "I beat the game" and stop playing. I got three pieces of Felheart and a Staff of Domination before I realized I don't want to stay up at night raiding and the PvP wasn't fun enough to do too often for long.

That would have been a good idea, except we can't murder each other over the internet.

I hate you. http://forums.obsidianent.com/index.php?sh...st&p=799992

Who said it had new spells? 1.12 supposedly has 20 spells on the list, though. Edit: HAHA! People on the forums say that there are new spells that aren't supposed to be in yet. That's awesome.

You mean like how you made the same offer on page 1 of this very same thread? And then in PMs said "haha, I don't actually have it." Sure, let's work something out.

Didn't we already play this game, you jerk?

I wish I could play Arcanum next. No new ones on Amazon and all used copies are asking $50 for no box or manual with slightly worn discs.

Can you try PM'ing out different invitation codes to people who want to get in?
