Bleh, I really, really hate to say this, but... I also wish Prometheus never happened. The movie had so much potential that was just wasted with silly crap. Such disappointment. I have no hopes for Prometheus 2 and if the new Alien movie had to be "adjusted" to fit Prometheus then it gives me a really bad feeling...

Yeah. They usually teleport right next to my ranged folks, who can't really stand a chance against them. Though, at least it forced me to become a little more creative in combat. Had to fight like 5 and more of them at once, which resulted in me using all availble skills I got for my magic dudes. Also I learned to like the chanter with his skeleton spell who die like flies, but distract the enemy for a few seconds.

Indeed, but style uber alles. PS: Also found out that the icon is used for two helmets. The Frog Helmet (which is the correct one) and another full face helmet, which is the one I posted above. So that's where the confusion came from. /Edit: lel.

Ok, swapped armor with Kana now too and it indeed happens. So... yeah... better don't swap armors like this, just in case. /Edit: A bit deeper down on that reddit thread:

I am a little disappointed with the amount of armor visuals, though. Feels to me like there are only 5 different sets. Also, and this is the most biggest disappointment i had in a long time... First I was like "oh god yeah!11" and then suddenly "nooooooo". /edit: Wuut. Just checked it again. It must have been a bug, because now it is correct and exactly how it should have been. Such madness. Game is now 11/10.

Nope, tested it. Double clicked various items and my stats do not change. Even made a new character just for testing and it stays all the same. At least my ranger character noticed no change at all. PS: I found out the game puts your savegames in "sub folders" in the menu. So if you start a new game with a new character, the savegames won't mix up with your other saves. cool.

Am I the only one who is getting a kind of Arcanum vibe from Pillars of Eternity? It almost feels like a pre-Arcanum to me, the world turning into a more steampunk-esque setting within the next 100 or so years. Or maybe it's just the music. Damn, I want to replay Arcanum.

Wait... "if you really loved this game"... The game is out since a few hours and we can already say stuff like "If you really loved this game"? Same for the negative reviews. How the hell is that possible so short after the release? Sometimes I don't know what's wrong with people.

Created my ranger character with wolf companion. But I am thinking about restarting and getting a deer companion. Not sure yet. Wolf is kinda a cliche.

Just from reading the topic title I knew this is a oby post.

By the way, wasn't there something about a Making of for Wasteland 2 as well? I don't think I have seen anything else of it than one short video years ago.

Just took a minute of time to think about this... ... Damn, I didn't expected that I really don't care about any of this. Is it because I am getting older and such things simply don't bother me anymore? I feel disconnected to any recent internet drama. Please someone explain.

What kind of drama is going on?

I still don't really know what to think about this game. How will it work? Does it have singleplayer? How much fake is the walking on planets and space stations? Will it be an MMO like Eve?

Wish the amount of my riches would be this much. :> First thing I'll do is to move out of my current town. I spend way too much time on driving to and from worm, imo. After that I'll think of something else.

If everything works out as planned, I will get a truckton of more money from next month on. I will have to work a bit more, but it is worth it for the first time in years. Damn, what will I do with all my new riches?

Damn.

So I finished the first workday again after a 2 weeks vacation and for the first time in months I dream again... And the dream is a mix of The Walking Dead (watched latest episode yesterday), Battlestar Galactica (finished the show for the second time the day before yesterday) and a woman I haven't seen since 8 years now. I don't know what is wrong with me.

Yeah, it looks pretty rad. Will try it out as soon as it's a bit further down the development road.

Wasn't it March 26th or something like that?

Me personally I never liked this ENB stuff. People are turning their games into a dark blurry mess, which by the love of god I can't understand why anyone would want to do it. Yes you are hiding the ugly edges with blur and darkness... but you also hide everything else. You can make pretty screenshots with it, but I never had been able to play with that stuff. /Edit: What the game is lacking is true object / environment shadowing. The world would look less... wrong... if it had better light and shadows, imo.

Finished New Vegas again yesterday night. Did some stuff different this time and got highly confused with the ending. It's not the first time I did the Yes-Man ending, but this time it was totally different. Had to go to a different terminal, walk a different path,... Maybe this happened because I really planned to go with Yes-Man this time? Last time it was the NCR part where I decided in the last minute to doublecross them. A bit weird, but not bad, considering I have played through this game like 5 or 6 times already.

That's another thing being changed with a later patch. At first you were able to do the Goodsprings questline against the Powder Gangers and *still* be able to enter the prison and do stuff for them if you avoid killing more gangers on the way there. Now if you want to do the prison related quests, you'll either have to do the Goodsprings stuff in favour for the powder gangers or skip it until after the prison. It's impossible to sneak past all the guards, so you will be attacked at some point.

Just because I am currently replaying New Vegas as well (savegame says 36 hours again, heh)... I am using the "New Vegas Configator" (yes, it's written like that) to pimp up the graphics a little bit. Increased the grid loading from 4 to 8, which results in LOD models not being replaced that fast anymore. Usually you never see the Freeside sign this far in the distance (it always annoyed the hell out of me that it was poping up like 10 feet in front of me): And the damn water at the Dam: Since day 1 it also annoyed the hell out of me. It is pretty much invisible 99% of the time you walk around in that location, which probably was the reason for it to be removed with a later patch (it's in my game again due to the uncut mod, if I remember right. Though, I am 100% certain that there had been many more structures on the Dam than there are in the game now (wooden stuff at the rim, etc)). Sadly I can't crank it up to the max... no normal PC can handle that. But setting the value to 8 is still possible for me without noticing slow downs. Sorry for the off topic, just had to get it out into the world right now. :>

What exactly is in this game that it might be 100 and more GB of disc space in the end?
