Sex aside, that model would apply to 95% of RPGs. NWN 2 perfectly fits the mold, even. R00fles!

Morrigan crying? That was unexpected.

First time through I also got killed a couple of times during the shutters part... because I thought I had to hurry or Garrus' health bar would be too far depleted. But of course, it simply gets refilled once all shutters are closed. Next-gen health regeneration, and all that good stuff.

Only with Mr Sandman perk you can kill unnoticed.

It might be possible by editing the configuration xml file under C:\Users\ %username% \AppData\Local\Divinity 2\Profile in Vista or C:\Documents and Settings\ %username% \Local Settings\Application Data\Divinity 2\Profile in xp.

Knock down them thugs using Aard, and Vesna will one-shot them with her puny dagger. Always amusing.

Drakensang: am Fluss der Zeit

I felt as soon as one got the Battle Tower, the game went downhill pretty fast. Too much endless combat, too few witty dialogue & quirky humour.

As a soldier I used the second tier sniper rifle a lot, but the Vindicator battle rifle is just as good. But nothing really compares with the Revenant machine gun. Combine it with the appropriate ammo power & at medium range any enemy gets vaporized in full automatic mode.

For the two or three people that might be interested: an expansion pack for Divinity 2 is coming, named "Flames of Vengeance" (and has been confirmed on the official forum). Link (in Russian) It seems the cheesy ending will be fixed after all.

You reminded me of how I always wished to kill the Chantry hag that spouted "Magic exists only to serve man, not to rule over him" each time I passed by the Chantry in Denerim.

Qunari seem a combination of Fremen with their philosophy, and Seanchans with their attitude towards magick. And they have cannons. Can't forget about the cannons.

Baldur's Gate. Low-level campaigns are soooo much better than all the epic level cheese. I had forgotten about the area with the basilisks and wondered wtf was going on when I noticed my party members' portraits suddenly went disappearing one by one. Good times.

I had previously hoped on a story for DA2 involving a war between the Black Chantry of Tevinter (blood magic FTW) & the White Chantry of Orlais, but this doesn't seem really possible. A war between two nations of Thedas would just be an invitation for the Qunari to attack them in their weakened state. For the same, the Qunari aren't really in a position to break the status quo, since that would just unite the major powers of Thedas and they'd might even lose the islands they had conquered x years before the game. Unless of course a major Qunari force would arrive from their home continent overseas...

So the US bombing targets in Afghanistan & Isra

Next DLC - Mass Effect 2: Racer.

Do yourself a favor and play with a lady. They don't look fugly, don't run like somebody pushed a stick up their arse & their giggle after wasting enemies is even sexier than Leliana's.

Enemy wizards needing 'epic gnolls' in order to protect themselves, is a bit ridiculous. At epic levels, any enemy wizard should be able to rape an unprepared party, like in TOB. But in MOTB everything comes down on spamming level 9 spells or the occasional Vampiric Feast... it's not even strictly necessary to cast protections or buffs on the party, which is pretty lame.

I believe that was what she had intended. Problem was that Araman killed Lienna (or whatever she was called) and started a little revolt in the Academy of Shapers & Binders.

It's still possible to permanently die, depending on the choice.

I really liked Dungeon Siege 2. It plays like Baldur's Gate on speed & has voice-over even worse than Oblivion, but it's mayhap the only other game (along with the Divine Divinity games) where the hero(es) get majorly screwed over in the end and the entire quest turns out to be for naught.

I thought it would be about the other Chris Taylor. ?

Only when my boss isn't looking over my shoulder.

After literally devouring Myrkul, the PC's stats & abilities really should've become akin to a Greater Deity, and made it possible to topple Kelemvor later on in his home plane (IIRC Gods can otherwise only be killed on the Prime Material Plane). Imagine having the option to become the new god of the dead as a sort of neutral or good ending, aside from causing Ultimate Kaos by destroying the wall. WOTC could've then considered this "new dead god" ending to be canon (let's face it, Kelemvor was a major pansy anyway).

Is there a mission or encounter involving Corporal Toombs? Shepard received an angry e-mail from that pansy in my first Renegade playthrough, but it never became more than that.
