Wrath of Dagon

Actually the only way I might not be disappointed is if I expect a shooter. I'm sure it'll be terrible as an RPG.

Actually legal immigrants from anywhere do very well here. And most illegal ones too.

I don't know, how many illegal alien street gangs do you have in Sweden?

Who cares about the story in a shooter?

It's going to be a radical departure for Bioware. You will now have a choice of 2 entirely different buildings!

I was talking about homicides, the total is mostly suicides. With more people having guns, obviously suicide by gun would be higher, doesn't say anything about the total number of suicides though.

Depends on the culture. Mexico, where guns are completely illegal, has double the gun homicide rate than US. Switzerland and Israel, where everyone has an assault rifle, has similar homicide rates to the rest of Europe.

Generally a fairly balanced build between offense/defense is the best, as has been said. For a dodge build, it helps to put a little more into dodge than into the weapon, until close to the end, when you can pretty much dump everything into dodge. Also don't forget you can increase you skills during combat, when you kill someone you immediately get skill points for them, and also you get bonus points for reaching ranks after you talk to the arena master. I always save before I allocate my points, so that if I have trouble in one area or the other during the battle I go back to the save and re-allocate. I've had a pretty easy time with dodge/hammer, except the Ordu, but they're also easy using the right strategy. in the new (R2) build. Yesterday I almost beat them, but I screwed up with the spearman. I think I might have figured out how to do it, I'll try again tonight. Edit: It's also crucial to remember to loot the equipment off the fallen bodies.

The Ordu fight isn't bad with hammer/dodge if you use a light hammer and chase the archer first and do as many fast attacks as you can, since he's hard to hit but not well protected otherwise. You can also equip a buckler since there're are no penalties to dodge or hit. Any other shield is counter-productive IMO because of the penalties. Once the archer is dead, the swordsman is pretty easy as he's easy to hit.

No, environmentalists really do want to stop economic progress and redistribute wealth instead, I've posted this before: http://m.guardian.co.uk/?id=102202&sto...define-humanity

You think that's broken?

I think you can use the tavern in Redcliffe as a permanent storage facilty. You have to talk to Bella (I think that's the waitress' name), not sure if you have to get in her favor and/or arrange that she runs the tavern.

Be sure to set the video options to the resolution of your monitor, looks tons better than the default.

Yes, that graph shows the longer UK waited to fight, the worse off they became, and the war was inevitable anyway, unless they wanted to become a German vassal. That was Churchill's point. He was going to use poison gas if Germans invaded Britain also. Everyone used poison gas in WWI, and the only reason they didn't in WW2 was fear of retaliation, not moral principles. Churchill made many mistakes, but he also did many things right and brilliantly, he was a real risk taker. For example he was instrumental in the development of the tank, and came up with the floating harbors, the Mulberrys, used in the Normandy invasion. As far as Gallipoli, he was more responsible for the Dardanelles, which was the naval operation, while Gallipoli was a land operation, since he was the First Lord of the Admiralty. Even there, if the war cabinet made the decision to attack Dardanelles when Churchull first proposed it, and thus the Turks wouldn't had the time to mine them, the operation would've succeeded. But no question Churchill had a lot of hare brained ideas. Someone said he had 100 ideas a day, 4 of which were good. And of course his leadership did save Britain, when everyone thought they were finished, and he was a very strong leader, certainly not a figurehead at all.

Amazing ignorance of history. It was Germany that was extremely weak at the time, German troops were under orders to withdraw if confronted during the occupation of Rheinland.

Finished DAO and I have to say I'm quite disappointed with the room clearing simulator.

If you're having crashes when clicking on the arena master, try standing a little further from him (2 squares I think). That might help. Something they're working on but haven't been able to reproduce so far.

Hillary and Obama, that wacky couple, promised the developing world $100 billion a year if they'd sign on to the treaty, to compensate them for damage CO2 is causing them or some such.

Sure it can, just has nothing to do with AOD.

The Third Law of Golemhood:

That whole storyline didn't make much sense to me, and seemed very contrived.

All of a sudden I feel much better about our new evil overlords.

Oh, OK, thanks. I was hoping I could find that out during the Orzammar quest, to help me make the decision.

These days, it's the art style that matters. You need talent to get a decent art style, not a million "artists" to do a billion hi-res textures. This is how you get from this: To this: 2D game, has nothing to do with anything

What? Instead of 10,000 repetitive battles and 10,000 Codex entries? What kind of crummy RPG design would that be? Btw, how do you find out what happened in the Dwarven royal family? I took Bhalen's side and didn't see any of it.
