I'm not sure whether I'm looking forward to the horrors of 3rd edition D&D.

Was the Greater Deathblow glitch ever fixed? IIRC activating Greater deathblow (which kills everything with less than 12 HD in one blow) on a fighter, then shooting an explosive arrow into a group of illithids/demons/beholders would kill them all on the spot. Almost all enemies save dragons & bosses have less than 12 HD, so in any case Greater deathblow >>> Greater whirlwind. R00fles!

I finished Secret Files: Tunguska and am now playing Nibiru: age of secrets in preparation of Secret Files 2.

I still have no idea what Belhifet is supposed to be. A baalor? He looks more like a crossbreed of a rakshasa and a minotaur.

Actually in BG you need to press two buttons to win the game: CTRL + Y

I hope somebody brought Protection from Undead scrolls. Isn't there a demilich somewhere?

Beholders, Glabrezu... awesome.

Is that one immune to spike traps?

I predict the third level of WK will be the end for many intrepid adventurers.

Portal, the Citizen Kane of videogames.

They added those stupid puzzles in Episode 2 because otherwise Mr Freeman would have nothing to do but occasionally shine his light & watch how Alyx tears up everything. I'm sure the designers of Mass Effect 2 were inspired by it a lot.

Polygamy didn't die at all. Islam is the fastest growing religion, condones polygamy and is slowly taking over western civilization by means of immigration and outbreeding the native populations. Make of that what you want.

The gameplay is no longer party-based, and it's doubtful the one companion one seems to have in the game can be directly controlled. That's a big change compared to the previous games. DS2 had conversations and even party banter, that's no big deal. I'd guess the few hardcore DS fans that are still around would want nothing more than DS3 to have the exact gameplay as the previous games, but only with better graphics.

The Global Caliphate disagrees.

Do yourself a favour and play a true FPS like Far Cry or Painkiller.

I checked and I missed quite a lot. Watcher's Keep: Taralash +4 (bow), Firetooth +4 (crossbow), Dagger of the star +4, Angurvadal +4 (longsword), Usuno's blade +4 (ninja-to), spectral brand +4 (scimitar), shortsword of Mask +4, Ixil's nail +' (spear), Erinne's sling +4, Staff of the ram +4 Regular SoA: Mana bow +4, Boneblade +4 (dagger), FLail of ages +4, Dragon's breath +4 (halberd), wave +4 (halberd), cutthroat +4 (shortsword), staff of the woodlands +4, Sling of Arvoreen +4, Carsomyr +5, Warblade +4, Soul Reaver +4, Crom Faeyr +5, Spear of withering +4.

If the game will feature more than 4 women, it'll be Gothic in name only.

I wonder how funcroc even manages to dig up previews from Belgian sites.

Cool. I never played Heart of Winter.

Wyrm's tooth is my favourite dungeon in the game. Lower Dorn's deep... not so much. Malavon, the Elf chick with the Fire giants & especially the area with the 10,000 greater mummies are pretty tough here. Looking forward to seeing it.

Does she eventually make up her mind about having you fulfill her slave-domina fetish or not? You can change her alignment to True neutral. No no, I'm talking specifically about her habit of teasing you with "I know you want me, pet ...eh I'm getting bored, leave me be." dialogs. That little game of hers stops right after sleeping with her. Then she instead starts trying to push <charname> away by spouting vulgar lies about her past. Or something.

In SoA, the only weapons better than +3 are Carsomyr +5, Warblade +4, Cutthroat +4 & one of Drizzt's scimitars. Irenicus summons two baalors & two glabrezu in the end fight, but I don't remember if a +4 was required to hurt them (I think a +4 was only needed to hurt demogorgon & mariliths in ToB). In Watcher's keep there's several +4 weapons, though... like staff of the ram & spectral blade that Jaheira can use.
