Mask o' the Betrayer!
THAT WAS AWESOME My evil characters always choose Bane for deity and Baldur's Gate always made me a fan of Bhaal (I actually chose Bhaal for Deity in NWN1, but dead gods aren't options in NWN2 ), so this was incredible to me. Dear Obsidian, can we please

Someone make an Obsidian Steam group
I like the idea of you caving in and doing it yourself! Sounds terrific!

There's no such thing as "tastefully nude" in a computer game intended to recieve a T rating. "Tastefully nude" goes straight to M, does not pass go, does not collect $200 dollars.

Mask o' the Betrayer!
Because you lack a sense of humor? Seriously, you mention cheating up some stats. As I asked, is it possible you gave Kaji a level of Wizard? Which would have resulted in him picking up a familiar. Being called insane and implied to be a shroom-eating liar goes a bit beyond my sense of humor, I guess. I haven't touched Kaji. He summoned the rabbit down in the burrow, before I'd even tested the cheat codes. All I've done with Kaji is look at his stats and behaviors, and I might have changed the behaviors on the behavior chart. That's all. Try turning him to puppet mode. And abilities off.

That's what it sounds like you've done. In your cheating up his stats, you ended up giving him a familiar. Maybe you increased his level which may be paired with the Wizard default kit (as he's not supposed to level and would never use his kit anyway), which could reasonably result in him taking a familiar.

Kaji can't summon! He's a Rogue! Wait a second. When you cheated, did you give him a Wizard level? Perhaps unintentionally? Rabbits are on the familiar list.

Pet Rabbit? I think you've gone insane. You must have.

Was the Book of Vile Darkness a video game intended for a wide audience?

KOTOR III MMO Confirmed?
The site has the credibility of a duck. I know a source close to Bioware that told me they're working on the Firefly MMO. There's absolutely no reason why "a source close to Bioware" would give an official confirmation to some random weblog that can't even get a working frontpage.

The short answer: You use custom content, you ask the player to have an imagination, or you simply don't. It was revealed a long time ago that WotC didn't want revealing content in the game. So, the game doesn't have it.

Great, now after reading a Kotaku article I want to get Disgaea: Afternoon of Darknes.

What should I play next?
I have questions as to if someone even know what constitutes a "pure" shooter if they refer to anyone entry in Half-Life as such. The presence of puzzles in every iteration makes it more an FPS Action Adventure than a "pure" shooter. This to be compared with shooters such as Halo, Doom, Max Payne, Far Cry, Painkiller, and countless others where puzzles are wholly absent. Though they're generally not complicated as some found in other Action Adventure titles such as God of War or Prince of Persia where you may end up encountering a literal jigsaw puzzle.

I don't see what backstabbing murder has to do with hallucinations.

Games you are looking forward to
Phoenix Wright: Trials and Tribulations and Front Mission (DS) are scheduled to be released on Tuesday. Metadigital: Bioshock is not currently on the PS3 and there are no announced plans for it to be on that platform. Edit 1: Castlevania: The Dracula X Chronicles is scheduled for Tuesday, too, but since I'm so far behind my game (and book) library, I'm not going to pick it up. :'(

Pictures of your games
Due to the @#$%ing camera, I am stuck either playing Halfling or Gnome's. Should have gone with a Gnome! Halflings are a blight upon fictional worlds everywhere!

Mask of the Betrayer Redux
ARGH! Sunken City, at the end Back to digging in the toolset. Edit 1: I see the problem. It calls up Gann for conversation, but Gann isn't even in the bleeding group! The conversation fails a node, conversation drops, and the game breaks. Edit 2: Well, I quick fixed that dialog. Here's to hoping the override folder works as it does for other games. Edit 3: FUDGE YEAH! I'm good. Worked like a charm.

A critique of Obsidian from KOTOR to NWN2
I can't even consider 30 hours "short." Suikoden II is only about 20 hours, if I recall correctly, and it's one of my favorite games of all time. Long games threaten tedium. Unless there's something immensely compelling, players will get bored before they finish. That is to say you have to have a story and gameplay mechanics good enough to be one of the very best games of the year to pull it off.
