Don't miss series.

IWD has better spell animations, music and avatars.

You didn't like the full frontal nudity?

Israel is sure going to like being caught between two fires.

It looks like an upgraded version of NWN2. I like it. Also, the Archon lady looks like a female version of Teal'c.

BioWare has retreated to dry humping a while ago.

I looked up some characters on the Star Wars wiki and it uses this thread as reference.

Angry Videogame Nerd delivers.

The part with the girl and her Deep One mother, the entire Shoggoth puzzle sequence & the Flying Polyps were very unsettling, the rest of the game is mostly tense due to badly implemented stealth & shooting. The drab voice-over didn't help much either.

Your link doesn't seem to work.

How would that be possible? You win the world at the end of the game.

Troika did romance better than BioWare.

Pete seems to imply in that interview that Arkane cooperated in the development of Skyrim. That would mean a huge incline of the series.

I haven't even played 10 new games in 2010. 1. Drakensang: River of Time 2. Divinity 2: Dragon Knight Saga 3. Gray Matter 4. Two Worlds 2 5. Fallout: New Vegas 6. Mass Effect 3 7. Alpha Protocol

According to Inside Two Worlds, Southpeak delayed it til 28 January.

Does Solitaire on a work computer count?

I just want to kill a dragon dual-wielding Forks of Horripilation.

Time-based clicking?

Yep.

I find Baldur's Gate better than its sequel, due to the low-level campaign and limited possibilities for exploration. I still remember the large amount of absurd encounters one could have in random places (for example, the child looking for his dog who turns out to be a shapeshifting demon, etc). The boss fight against Sarevok is also much more compelling than Slayer-Irenicus, and almost impossible to win without cheesing. Not to mention Durlag Tower - best dungeon of all time. I also think Irenicus is one of the most overrated videogame antagonists, pretty much the Sephiroth of western RPGs. A mage who tried to reach above his station, predictably failed and then went on a mad quest for revenge against the world. Yey.

The combat sounds more like Dark Messiah. Maybe Arkane's influence? As for magic, as long as I can still create my own spells I do not worry much. Custom made destruction & illusion spells made the level scaling a non-issue in Oblivion.

I've been reading up on TES lore regarding thu'um. It seems Vivec had a inventive way of countering the almighty dragon shout. Please Todd, implement this in the game.

This sounds like something worth googling.

The Restoration mod is highly recommended if you plan to play Dark side male Exile. The chicks will then eventually literally fight over the Exile.

Great review. Here's to waiting another ten years for a TDE classical RPG. At least there's still Demonicon and Satinavs Ketten coming out to somewhat lessen the pain.
