I think the level scaling system might be my only real problem with it. I don't like what Sand calls the "hand holding," either. But, that's simply because I enjoyed it in Morrowind where I would have to travel out, explore, and search for the dungeon my quest wanted me to go to. Then after exploring it, I would sometimes found out I'm in the wrong danged place! This was never a problem, because every dungeon always really interested me. With the level scaling, dungeons don't interest me. The bandit at the front of the dungeon is only slightly less interesting than the bandit at the end of the dungeon. There's no interesting items to find laying around, no glass daggers resting on altars. It's all rusty iron. I can't decide if the reason I always just jumped A-Z using quick travel and the arrows was because it was convenient or if it was because I couldn't find anything worth doing on the side.

It's not meant to be for self defense, it's a hunter's license.

God of War Dang this game is fun. So many great Action Adventure games on the PS2. Action Adventure is the one genre that rarely seems to fall short.

It's awesome.

The thing I didn't like in the demo is I couldn't do anything without 2x the number the enemy had. They've got tech 1 fighters, so do I! I send out 5 to take out their 5, they lose 1, I lose 5. Maybe it's just the way the army is set up, en masse, it's not unheard of. However, it turned assaulting positions into lagfests on my computer.

GG party politics.

Of course you can't do anything with that attitude.

I blame you, Sand. If you suspected it was going on, it was your moral obligation to do something. -.-

An user review of some of Obsidian's products
Tale replied to ouiouiwewe's topic in Obsidian General
KOTOR 2 was noticeably better than KOTOR 1. The only downside of it was the last area. NWN2 was worlds above and beyond NWN1. NWN1 was a game I considered crap until 2 expansions passed and then I only found one of those expansions to be any good. So far, OE is showing a lot more ability than Bioware has been for a while and since they're pretty much the only two companies in the domestic "non-action non-MMO" RPG market, a lot of hope is going on OE. -
Ethics play a large role in designing any experiment. Please, tell me how you can set up an experiment testing global warming without trying to intentionally cause it's increase. "The thing is, we don't know enough about global climatology to prove that the planet is undergoing a warming process." We don't know enough about anything to prove anything. Especially considering the scientific method is actually a method for disproving and that failure to disprove does not constitute proof. "And even if that is the case, there's a fair bit of evidence that points to cyclical changes derived from variable solar activity." And a fair bit of evidence that it's not significant enough to account for what is happening. But that's probably just purposely misinterpreted, too. Al Gore's not the only person in the world that believes we're causing drastic climate changes. Many scientific organizations share his belief: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_op..._climate_change I guess the American Association of Petroleum Geologists are the only ones who aren't corrupt or stupid. Oh, and these guys: http://www.co2science.org/scripts/CO2ScienceB2C/Index.jsp

Yeah. I mean, there's no definitive proof to back that such a thing as "global warning" even exists, but if Al said it on TV, it must be true, right? Finally, someone that knows their stuff. If by definitive proof, then you mean "a scientific experiment whereby global increases in temperature can be shown as being the direct result of carbon dioxide emissions" then, you're right. There is no definitive proof. That whole ethical dilemma of increasing global warming significantly enough that you can look directly at it and say it was because of your contribution of CO2 is preventing this experiment from occuring. Besides, where would we get the control? Do you have a spare Earth lying around? However, there is a metric %^&ton of correlational data showing a positive relationship between CO2 levels in the atmosphere and increasing temperature.

The issue of global warming needs all the attention it can get, desperately. Ignorance and apathy towards it is too great. The amount of pollution this single event will generate is nothing compared to the pollution that has been released, is being released unrelated to the event, and is still going to be released unless people's attention is on the problem and people start seriously doing things about it.

Baldur's Gate - whole series for ten quid
Tale replied to Walsingham's topic in Computer and Console
Dang, it's quid. I don't think I have any lying around. -
The Steam version's bugs are the reason I haven't bought this game. I've also heard there's expansion material that's not included? Or is my Alzheimer's acting up, again?

hi-five! It was worth, at least, the one watch.

Anna Nicole Smith was nowhere near the icon that either Marilyn Munroe or Princess Diane were.

Vanguard The hardest part about a FFA server is keeping track of all the people you're making a point to gank every time you cross them. I made 63 copper in profit counterganking today!

No, because that would be epic dumb.

This is why computers don't run the legal system. Because human beings ask the obvious question of "what exactly happened?"

In this case, sure? Why not? How many Nazi soldiers were tried for fighting on the front lines?

Read what I said. The war does not have to be legal for deployment to be legal. Now read it again. His order is deployment. What's illegal? In his mind, the war. What's legal? His order, the deployment.
-
That's the only way to break his chain of thought, but that's not how the law works. The war doesn't have to be legal for the deployment to be legal.
