  1. It seems to me as if they react, not always but sometimes. I just got a Gene Tonic that quiets footsteps, actually. I would definitely disagree with "straight up" shooter. The hacking systems, choices, and plasmid and weapon advancement (I've only read about advancement from the tip screens, not experienced it so far) would make me more prone to calling it action-adventure.
  2. They're not meant to be scary! They're meant to be tragic, if anything. An objective in the game is to They don't attack you, ever. Their bodyguards don't attack you either. Only ever if you attack first.
  3. Didn't say he was evil, just that he was a villain.
  4. I doubt there's a relation. Didn't he leave WotC in 2001? I'm reading that on the wiki entry for him.
  5. The more I see Sand explain it, the more I dislike it. 25 spell levels can be reasonable depending on how it's implemented. I don't like all the merging of skills. Moving silently and hiding are often seperate activities. Listening and spotting are also different activities that not necessarilly should be joined. Largely, it seems reasonable in that they are related. But it also seems a step backwards as it is less detailed. On the other hand they're wanting to make it more accessible and quick to set up.
  6. It's what happened with Biny's assault on the auction house repeated. What happens is there's a boss who casts a debuff (in this instance it is one that is transmittable), he cast it on a Warlock's pet, so the Warlock stored his pet. Normally, this debuff is not meant to leave the raid instance, but since the Warlock stored it on his pet, he carried it out. A prepared raid can have druids remove the debuff. An unprepared city will largely not have a clue what is going on.
  7. That doesn't look like Colin Baker. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Bakercolin.jpg
  8. Yeah, Bloodlines also has terrific voicework. We are getting rather spoiled. I remember a comment from the Making Of CD that came with Lunar for the PS1. The voice actor for Ghaleon said that to be a good villain you need to annunciate and make it sound like you're in love with the sound of your own voice. I think that's what was so good about David Warner and why the British make such good villains. Look at Alan Rickman, too! Someone should peg him for some villain voicework.
  9. Not just any sausage. A ****tail sausage. About an inch long, probably shorter.
  10. One of the best things about BGII is that they had David Warner doing Irenicus. That was some of the best voicework I've yet to see.
  11. Only thing I know is Deep Silver published X3 and I love X3. However, that should have absolutely no bearing on this game. Pre-edit: F' teasers.
  12. Daaave's not here, man.

  13. "He sent me PM after PM of things that shouldn't be mentioned."

    Yes, it should. In gross detail. Spill it.

  14. I never feel low on ammo. It's kind of typical in that I'm almost always full. Maybe it's the way I play, though.
  15. 5 little sisters rescued. I didn't think it would be done this way. Very excellent.
  16. I think we should all just use the same avatar. Just to screw with people. Who's with me?

  17. That is awesome!
  18. Oh. Well, that sounds fine. Jerkface.
  19. I didn't see a thing telling me I could hack the door.
  20. Medical Wing question: Try to keep the spoiler answer to a minimum. Area I'll find it in, whether or not it's easy to miss, etc, please.
  21. Part of the problem is people viewing it as an argument. That's irrelevent to the point I was making. For the purposes of this forum, I used argument, because that's usually what happens here. If you want, just replace the word argument with discussion or debate or somehting similar. Whatever you want Tale. The point still stands. I think my point still stands. Jerk or no jerk, when people come into it determined to convince others their beliefs are wrong, that's usually when it gets out of hand. That point is true, but it isn't about people veiwing something as an argument. It's true regardless of what you're going to call it, and I agree that it's part of the problem. I just don't think you should single out arguments. People can have religous arguments, and religous debates, religous discussions, religous talks, all of it. Your point can be applied to all of it. I disagree on that point. I consider debates academic, discussions social, talks social as well. Arguments are specifically about trying to make someone else believe your point of view. Often emotional, aggressive, and not based in reason. They are anti-social, anti-productive. I cannot say the same of debates, discussions, or talks. It is when such transition into an argument that they become a problem. Wait, what point are we tossing around here?
