DS II was as much story-driven as Dragon Age: you had to save the world from an Ancient Evil in a Giant Fetch Quest, but there was a (ridiculously predictable) twist in the end. Characters were pretty fun as well, there was even some banter depending on party composition. So yeah, I can't see what's so surprising about this news.

I wonder which referee will ruin the World Cup this year. In 2002, there was , last WC Australia was scandalously robbed after an Italian dive. France shouldn't even be in this year's WC, after the handball against Ireland.

Anyone rooting for North Korea? I wish they were put in the same group as South Korea. Tomorrow is Engerland - USA & Nigeria - Argentina, could be interesting.

Most RPGs give XP for killing monsters and solving quests. Not so with Elder Scrolls & DS, unless I'm remembering it wrong. A warrior can cast a level 1 nature spell many times, and become a better nature mage, etc.

Didn't Divine Divinity came out in the same year as DS? That game struck the perfect balance between Diablo's combat system & Dungeon Siege free-form character advancement. Not to mention, fully interactive open-world.

DS games don't even have a typical XP system, it's more a 'learn-by-doing' system like Elder Scrolls. XP is gained by casting spells, or hitting things with a sword or bow, IIRC. Only difference between DS1 & 2 was that DS 2 introduced powers with cooldowns.

Why am I reminded of Morrowind?

Witcher 2 explained

Creating an attractive female in FO3 didn't take that long for me. Try making a good looking Imperial chick in Oblivion. Nearly impossible. But as for males... the yokel-meter is even higher than in Dragon Age.

Since this game takes place at the end of the WWW period (~1900?), are there any automobiles seen in the game? Is it possible to scoot around in a Ford-T?

They actually came very close to Damascus in the Yom Qippur war. Would've solved a lot of problems if they had continued... it's pretty similar to G.W. Bush bailing out from attacking Baghdad in '91.

If anything, Israel has more support now than then. They pretty much defeated the entire Arab world on their own in '67. Imo, best thing to happen for peace right now is for Israel to invade and capture half of Syria and make it the new Palestine.

Deep Roads or Orc Caves, which is worse and why? Discuss!

Why would they've agreed to that? Israel is their Canaan.

Israel making peace with Hamas would be like the US making peace with al Qaeda. Not going to happen.

Doesn't NV take place a couple of decades after FO3?

Divinity 2 had bunnies... and if you killed a certain amount, a Killer Bunny would appear, Monty Python style. Nothing can ever beat that.

Bloodrayne is okay, Bloodrayne 2 is Boll's worst movie. And that's saying a lot. I don't think he did Silent Hill... that movie was quite good. Neverending Story.

OK. Looks like I'll be playing with a girl again.

Looks pretty terrible. Nothing can beat the first MK movie. MK belongs to the 90s and the 90s only.

Barrels of Fun

I vote the maze before reaching Sarevok's lair in BG1 as the worst tunnels of all time. But I always like the maze in Spellhold. Some fighting, some cool riddles, some drama. I also like the tunnel fighting in the Witcher, since they're pitch black and even with a Cat potion one can't see more than two metres ahead... makes for some great atmosphere combined with ghosts, graveirs & vampires.

That was a fun movie. Haven't thought about that one for years.
