Magic System Discussion
No, its not a new 3rd edition. 3.5e is basically the same old crap. It is part of Monte Cook's variant Player's Handbook. Head to www.montecook.com to check it out. I think you would like it.

Magic System Discussion
That is one of the things I liked about Monte' Cook's magic system in Arcana Unearthed. Each spell, besides spell level, is set up in three broad catagories. Simple, Complex, and Exotic. Simple spells tend to be not as powerful as Complex or Exotics, and exotics tend to be fairly powerful for their level and require a feat to learn to cast them (like Exotic Weapon feats). With in each spell you have the base power, which you cast at the spell level. Diminished power, allowing you to caste the spell at one level less, taking a lower level slot, or at heighten power which takes up a higher level slot. Also you have so many slots per day but you don't memerize spells. You have a separate number of prepared spells per day, but you can use up all your slots on one prepared spell. It is a fairly nice system.

System Requirements for the PC version
I played KotOR 1 on a Athlon 900 CPU and a GF2 MX400 decently enough.

Sweet, sweet Torment
Well, to be honest PS:T is the first CRPG that I have played that uses the Amnesiac Plot and does a pretty good job of it. I also have to agree with VOlourn that PS:T is not the complete package. Far from it. FOs and to a lesser extent the BG series does a good job of it. PS:T is one of the best CRPGs ever made, but let us not be blind to its many faults.

Best Price on Kotor2 Pre-Order?
Probably not Fearless. Once they have it they need to ship it out on the date of release and that is usually by mail or Fedex which will take another couple of days. At the earliest you would be getting it a day or two after the stores get it, on average.

What's your favorite fantasy/si fi world?
Damn typoes. Yes, Kingdom not Kingsom. Grrr... Yes, Star Wars is fantasy because if you remove the Force the story of Star Wars can't work, but if you remove the science aspects of it it can still work. That s one of the things I worked on Concrete Kingdom. If you remove the magic aspects of it the stories and campaign does not work. If you remove the science aspects of it the story and campaign also ofalls apart. That is what marks Science Fantasy from just regualr science fiction and fantasy.

KotOR II soundtrack
Man, the soundtrack of KotOR 1 was pretty damn good. So what is good ripping software to extract the music? I bought the game, I should be able to listen to the music when I feel like it.

How much later would you like K3 to take place?

Kotor VS TSL
My problems with the game is purely based on its game mechanics.

What's your favorite fantasy/si fi world?
I like Concrete Kingsom. It is my own homebrew sci fi/fantasy that I use d20 Modern as the rule base for.

Designer Ramblings: Romance
In my opinion those teen magazines are the worse for kids. People should do whatever they should do to make themselves happy, as long as no laws are broken. If you are happy been skin and bones, go for it. If you are happy being plump then go for it. The only person you have to live with is yourself. Everyone else be damned.

Story Vs. Combat
- Why are you here?
I don't know why would any want to rule the world. Man, can you imagine the paper work that it would involve.- Designer Ramblings: Romance
Maybe, maybe not. Who knows? I don't.- Designer Ramblings: Romance
FHM?- Designer Ramblings: Romance
Most famous women are in the skin and bones catagory so it would be a hard search.- Best Price on Kotor2 Pre-Order?
I say best to wait til the game is out for about 4 to 6 months. You can get it cheaper by then and a patch or two might be out by that time.- Designer Ramblings: Romance
Depends on what you define as fat. As I said, I prefer the classical look over anerexic supermodels. Disgustingly obese, no, but more than skin and bones.- Why not get a degree?
So far my degree has been worthless.- Designer Ramblings: Romance
Well, that is your perogative, Drakon, but I prefer substance over surface value. Also I find dumb women unattractive.- Designer Ramblings: Romance
You talk to a woman first and get an idea how they are like before asking to go on a date. At least that is how I did it.- Designer Ramblings: Romance
Actually the type of women I am attracted to wouldn't be classified as "hot chicks." I prefer a woman to have more of a classical look and be rather cerebral than the typical society's view of what is hot: The brainless anerexic type.- Dragon Age?
The new me? Nah, but I am refuse to let myself be taken in by lies and hype any more. Game developers need to simply state the truth about their games and come clean if they make a mess of things.- lord of the rings - battle of pelennor...
I think that might be a little too much, but then again... :D There are times when a movie needs to be put away and no longer messed with. Let Jackson move on and not let him be trapped in what Lucas has done to Star Wars. - Why are you here?
