I don't know who they are, but so far Haste + Death Hex + Cleave = win. If Merrill had access to Creation tree, things would even be more broken.

Nope. Dragon Age 2 is a fun game, The Witcher 2 (despite its stellar graphics, entirely different second chapter depending on choice and interesting setting) just isn't. And in the end that's all that really matters.

Wallonian attempts to have Brussels integrated with their territory notwithstanding, Brussels would just keep remaining on its own. It is inside Flemish territory, but it is its own territory with its own government.

Keep in mind I'm speaking for the urban wastelands of my own country only, in particular the nation's capitol (ironically, also the captitol of Europe) where 2/3 of the population is of immigrant (mostly Northern-African) descent (incidentally, some parts of the capitol have 96% population of immigrant descent). Basically, in many cases it goes like this: little or no education -> no job prospects -> descent into life of crime and/or leeching off the social services. Most third generation immigrants also usually are arranged to marry a person of the countryside of their home-country, which is then brought to the country. This person usually only speaks the language of the home country only and is unfamiliar with Western culture, continuing the cycle. (There's of course also the cluster**** of French-speaking fleeing Brussels en masse and moving to Dutch-speaking communities bordering the nation's capitol, taking them over, but that's a different matter entirely. Let's just say if the Dutch-speaking weren't mellowed by centuries of being conquered and down-trodden by pretty much every major country, there would've been quite the historyof civil wars here).

Problem isn't really islam, since most third generation immigrants in Western Europe are just closet Muslims. The main problem is that they're not productive to society.

So why are you excited about Dishonored again?

Dark side, **** yeah.

I'm fully patched. From what I remember in DA:O, revenants were one-man armies that ditched out a ton of damage, were immune to pretty much all magic and had a very high armour rating. This is pretty much all gone... I can easily paralyze them this time around but even without they are not much more dangerous than a generic elite opponent. Then again, they also seemed to be special boss enemies in the first game that only appeared after breaking a special phylactery. Now they're just regular enemies.

Jensen is the new Shepard.

Since it should've been mentioned but hasn't so far: Wacky Wheels.

I (finally) picked up the game from eBay some days ago and am quite liking it so far, much more than DA:O. I don't give a crap about the recycled areas and enemies appearing out of thin air, after all Mass Effect had the same (it was even worse in this regard) and I got through that game so far. And it's not like BioWare has ever been known for stellar level/world design either, their strengths are elsewhere. Combat is really easy, though, at least on default difficulty. When did revenants become total wusses? I don't mind though, since at least this time trash combat is (generally) over quickly and tunnel length is limited, while in DA:O both tended to drag on endlessly (from what I remember). The voice-over of the female Hawke kinda grew on me as well. Hell, I might even pick up that Legacy DLC.

Same in Oblivion. Sort of, +10 player level isn't the same as a hardcoded level 20. Oblivion was a lot more fun playing with OOO when you could be walkign down a road at level 2 and suddenly come face to face with a minotaur king. Ooops. Suddenly running into a high-level creature out of the blue is ridiculous, it just means you die and reload. It's pointless. There should at least be a warning that there are high-level creatures around, like in Gothic 1/2 and FO:NV, where there are deathclaws not far from the starting area.

Same in Oblivion.

There's also Meet the Devs thread at Bethsoft forums, similar to the one that New Vegas had, for those that are interested.

I usually only notice on screenshots or in games with many cutscenes, like most recent BioWare games.

So I'm guessing it's no coincidence that Jensen (or whatever his name is) looks like Solid Snake.

Is that confirmed? I suspected it when , but it seemed to be trying to be very vague. Which makes me suspect that either I was reading too much into it or maybe the Courier isn't supposed to realize it, even if the player is supposed to.

It's kinda disappointing that at the end of Dead Money

Would it be that unlikely for Shepard to save the galaxy by opening a wormhole to the WH40k universe and sending in the Space Marines?

It's a bit unrealistic to expect Witcher 2 graphics in an open-world game, like those guys are doing.

Yes?

Screw that, they better still make a sequel because 1) it was the first shooter I bought in years and 2) the ridiculous cliffhanger ending.

FemShep 1, because she's Winona Ryder. Most likely won't get picked though, because of blondie.
