Norway appoints Muslim woman Minister of Culture
When it comes to seeing "us" and "them, I think it's largely the same. Just that the definitions change.

Well Catholics and Protestants still get into it in Scotland

What are you playing now?
Finished off BL2, enjoyable experience much like the first game for me. Had more trouble getting to the last boss than I did fighting him. had pretty crappy corrosive weapons so the bots were a pain to deal with, boss didn't drop anything particularly neat - was one of those grenadier assault rifles, meh. Did rush through the zones, so I missed out on some sidequests, I expect they were just more "Jack is EVIL" type though

[Merged] Please make a console version!
Too much work, maybe. That and who cares about those console untermensch, etc., etc.

Level scaling - don't scale individual enemies, scale ENCOUNTERS
Well, depends on how they do it. I'm not too fond of the idea, myself - mooks just magically getting tougher despite everything else in the situation being equal. But if they do it with a cap based on the 'zone' it wouldn't be that ridiculous.

The "Boob Armor" and the whole Issue of objectification
I'm predicting we'll just get midriff baring sorceresses.

Achievements
I don't think achievements have really added much to the genre (or any games at that matter). Key point to make people attached to their platform accounts, mainly, aren't they ? As for them in the game - I'm slightly against them but if they do toss them in, maybe just make it a few for "real" achievements in the game - like a pacifist playthrough, or felling some optional powerful foe, etc.

What you did today
I dunno, if he just has that left, things are pretty grim.

What you did today
Can't say that I have. But yeah, you might want to see someone. Day of stuff going wrong for me - sick, hard drive died (managed to recover some files though - I guess the MBR is fscked) and now the sink stopper in my bathroom is also busted. Luckily I have one of those rubber stopper thingies.

BioWare Founders Retiring!
Wonder why their fanbase is like that though, most other diehard fans aren't so wacky. Dumb of them to write all those nasty words about that woman though, defeats their purpose so to speak as Bioware can show that as being victims of bullies, etc. Also there's no excuse for me calling CliffyB a douchebag ? What is this world coming to!

Most anticipated games of 2013
Hah, I forgot all about that (which is probably poor form of me since I backed it.)

BioWare Founders Retiring!
Eh, more a case of resisting being pushed into acting like one I think, outside of the usual proverbial guns to the head - work, etc. Most of the stuff I saw lobbed at that woman wasn't all that bad - usual stuff you see from football louts at least, nothing worth exceptional outrage to me at least. But I think the whole Indoctrination theory was proof enough Bioware's uber fans have a mental illness.

Things you'd like to see in PE that haven't been done before in a cRPG
Well, a failure ending would also be nice to see.

How Immersive & Involved do you want Character Creation to be?
Malcador replied to Industrial Scribe's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Can't really say I'm all to concerned by the method of making it, more appreciative of the world reacting to the stuff I've chosen, but I'd pick the step by step option

What do you wish not to see in PE
Malcador replied to BasaltineBadger's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Agree with minigames, never felt they added anything more than a skill check would be and I remember AP's hacking minigame, yeah. Also every party NPC having some sort of emotional or psychological issue (parental issues, guilt over dead family members, etc.).
