Tale

Eberron: Stormreach It's already out.

Cheers! No problem! You've gotten me in the mood to rewatch all three (Hurray for three disc special edition!) but I think I'll have to wait until the sun comes up and some people in this house wake up. For some reason they don't like having a booming subwoofer in the basement at 3am when they are trying to sleep. :aiee:" Chronicles is to Pitch Black what Aliens is to Alien. Except Alien and Aliens both focused on Ripley and the Aliens. Pitch Black focuses on the creatures and Riddick. Chronicles focuses pretty much only on Riddick. With some focus on the Necromongers.

I wouldn't call Chronicles a sequal. Pitch Black was a creature flick. Chronicles is meant to be a movie in the same universe focusing on the Riddick character.

I, for one, wholeheartedly welcome our new Chicken overlords. It's about time someone wiped humanity from the table, except me, and took proper control of the world. While also giving me a nice cushy job that pays well and has little actual work required. ALL HAIL THE CHICKENS!

"Entire forests" in NWN1 consisted of a wall with a tree texture.

On a private forum I visit, I like this quote. "I'm probably an hour from finishing, but just can't do it. I'd rather watch reruns of Hogan Knows Best...it just bored me right out." The thread that comes from was started because another guy just got to the desert and is immensely bored. Myself, I'm probably 3/4 of the way through and have been fighting boredom since the jungle area.

The secret to the beast? You want to do something, but don't know how? Ask the people who do. And for a fast learner, you have the entire NWN2 campaign to look at for an example.

That makes me almost want to play Fable again. Almost. The game was just too... off... for my tastes.

Never played freelancer, but I definitely have my own space empire. I don't rival any of the big factions and I'm scared to take on Xenon and Kha'ak sectors, but I can reach there eventually. Right now I do mostly serious pirate hunting. I destroy pirate stations in retribution for the sectors they've cleaned out and the stations and ships of mine they've destroyed.

Fun, but repetitive? It's a sandbox game. The combat is very action oriented and pretty fun. There's a lot of complexity, ship types, strengths and weakness (speed, available weaponry, weapon power, shields), a nice market dynamic (which I don't get too in-depth into, I just have my trader ships set up using automated systems). There's a lot of choices. A LOT.

X3: Reunion It's actually an old screenshot. I practically own that sector of space now, 5 factories hanging around and my player HQ.

Meet the Taleroth One, flagship of my fleet. An Argon Colossus, carrier class capital ship. Currently housing 20 fighters. Mostly salvaged from pirates and then recommissioned in my service. I have a rather simple naming convention. My capital freighter is named Milla One, my fleet of trade ships are Allizee One through Allizee Eight. My fighter fleet are named Wraith Shiptype Variant then they get an alpha or beta designation if they're fit well enough for me to fly in. My corvettes are Demonic One through Demonic Three. My sole capital ship is Taleroth One, though I'm working on getting a Split Destroyer for Taleroth Two. And then my newly acquired M7 yacht, only one in the game, is named simply... War.

Sammael, is there any chance you can PM me a quick how-to on giving these kinds of bonuses in your feats? I haven't actually looked into how to do it, yet, but posts on the official forums had me believing it to be complicated.

I guess I should throw Doctor Who on there, but I have a hard time calling that "ongoing" with the crappy way it is aired in the US.

I think +2 items are pretty appropriate at 8th level unless you're in a low-magic setting. I just want to take this opportunity to say: foiled

Character design aside, this was the best RPG of '06. Hands down. I have to heartily disagree. Final Fantasy XII has bored me and two of my associates to the point we just put it down. Whereas I beat Suikoden V and NWN 2 both without taking weeks long breaks (which I've taken several of playing through FF XII).

Bleach Death Note Heroes Closer Mythbusters Battlestar Galactica Smallville Dead Zone Monk Psyc Lost In that order. Lost hasn't been too exciting for a while. Second half of season 2 of BSG was not too good. And this third season is intermittent, but hopeful! I rarely catch Smallville, Dead Zone, Monk, or Psyc, but I try to when I get the chance. Closer is one of those shows that I try to watch with my mom every now and then when I'm down near where she lives. Lost was like that for the first season.

I hear good things about the AI in Company of Heroes.

Then on principle I have to dislike the idea. If the concern is for feats and not relative power, then I don't hold faith for it.

An entire race of bunny women that have high heels as a racial trait. ...

I was under the impression that +2 items is pretty phat loot for level 8.

Saw this somewhere: I do dogtags and a pocket watch. Does that make me weird?

Screw all the immortality naysayers. Waah waah, I'm afraid I'll have social problems. I'm not social as it is. All I can imagine is how much work I would get done! It's awesome!

I like my natural scars. Forehead, tongue, giant gash on my knee, and a significant gash on the underside of my forearm.

Most betas don't run particularly well on many people's PC's. Lack of optimization or because of in house servers, take your pick. I just started trying Vanguard out, myself, yesterday. I like the Blood Mage, time to try the Necromancer and Rogue.
