Judge Hades

BLARG! Does it really matter. I just have to have this game! (w00t) GIMME! GIMME! GIMME! GIMME! GIMME! GIMME! NWN 2, not the Witcher. I might get the Witcher depending on the reviews.

Absolute power corrupts absolutely and the human being is so easily corruptible.

I think you need to find a happy medium between the two extremes. Balance and moderation in all things.

The Third Reich had the backing of the Catholic Church (officially, unofficially they were quite appalled) at the time, but Soviet Russia is a good example. It is not the fault of religion or philosophy that human beings are cruel and demeaning to one another. It is the fault of ourselves for it is what we are; cruel malaicious beasts who takes delight in hurting others. It is our self destructive instinct that very very few people have risen above it. Religion is just an excuse to vent those destructive urges.

Probably not.

If I designed the NWN 1 story line I would not have used the Creator Races at all. Ancient evil equals lame. Been there done that, who gives a smeg. I would have used a brand new evil. An evil so new that they have only been in the Realms maybe 12 to 14 years. The Kir-Lanan Gargoyles. Born from the corrupted energies of the dead gods Bane, Myrkul, and Bhaal they seek to destroy all the gods and their "godslaves." A particularly strong leader could form a coven that could implement the Wailing Death which it decays and kills the soul of the inflicted and tranfers that spiritual energy to lead Kir-Lanan. They would use trickery to lure some of the godslaves to do their bidding but inthe end would kill them just as well. Hmmm... Also I would have it that the PC or PCs could actually get the Wailing Death disease and have it drain the character's stats as time goes along. I mean, you need to find the cure not to save the city but to keep your own arse alive. It wouldn't be automatic but would require a Fortitude Save in the right circumstances. I am beginning to like this idea...

Okay then, remake the trilogy on all platforms and do some story tweaking that it all meshes well together. Imagine going from K1 ending then going directly to K2. You wouldn't need that conversation with Atton to established who Revan was because the game would already know by accessing the save file.

I know but there is something in me that thinks it would be so freaking cool to zoom in on Sarevok's decaying corpse and still hack away at it.

Well the CE should have all three games on DVD (for PC, native formats for consoles of course), a Full Sounndtrack CD, and making of videos.

I wonder how long it would take to reconstruct all the Infinity Engine games to use the NWN 2 engine.

Actually it could be very cost effective. What they do is release K1 and K2 remakes with a spand of 2 months in between, then another two months release K3, then lastly make a Collector's Edititon that all three games are in one package with some added goodies. MILK THE STAR WARS BUGGERS FOR ALL THEY ARE WORTH!

Well, this might make the game cost a little more initially on LA's side of things bet with the advances in engine technolofy what they could do is rework K1 and K2 that it will use K3's engine and re-release the game as a full trilogy for all three platforms of PS3, X Box 360, and PC. In the long run they would make a killion on it.

These men are cursed. These forums are cursed. That game is cursed. That mouse is cursed. That turnip is cursed. These words are... *urk*

In some cases having timed quests makes sense. It makes no sense to me that the bad guys would just wait around for the protagonist to finally show up to face them. The bad guys are on a timetable. They have their own goals. They have their own needs. They are going to act regardless if your characters are there or not to stop them.

Unless you killed Bastila in K1.

Well, not a fan made one but anofficial one.

I agree with GoA on that.

Its better to have a "rocky" development than a "bullwinkle" development.

*Hades begins to sing* Dark Side Jesus sing this song doo dah doo dah Dark Side Jesus conquering all all the doo dah day long

What I like about Celerity is when I go all Kung fu on the baddies. I would kick one guy up in the air then do a rapid set of punches as he slowly falls. While I was at the Giovanni estate the vampire there and I both had Celerity going and both jumped straight up with Katanas drawn. We were doing some serious sword swinging while falling while his thugs fired their guns at me. Man, that was really cool.

I seriously hope that changes. I know we have butt heads on a few things but I think you did great work in IWD 2 all things considering. I am sure Obsidian Ent will definitely give you opportunity to make great games that will be fully worthy of pride.

Exactly.

Looking for credibility on the Internet is like looking for politician that doesn't lie.
