*summons Volourn* Awakening > MOTB

Before the deluge of DLCs, I played a melee/unarmed character and it was pretty fun... but with the DLC inclusion of Albino radscorpions, Feral ghoul reavers & Super mutant overlords (not to mention the tribals/hillbillies from Point Lookout) I doubt it would still be possible to play without abusing the Chinese stealth suit.

The game doesn't end after finishing the main quest, right? Would you mind answering my question? I'm really curious about that. Haven't really had a chance to test it (I put traps in doorways and lure the enemies over them, rather than trying to use them as chokepoints), but I think it's the same as in the previous game. But at least now warriors can learn a 'Taunt' skill that alleviates the 'issue' a bit. Then again, enemies run through party members in Dragon Age as well...

Spamming some more Drakensang.

I previously forgot to mention Divinity 2: Flames of Vengeance.

Finished Drakensang: tRoT yesterday. Will replay as an Elf or mage... there were a few instances in the game where I really wish I could've hurled a fireball or use the paralysis spell, which Elves can't learn. Not to mention unlike the first game, NPCs will react differently depending on class/race of the PC - so there's a lot of replay value. Even playing as a thief/rogue is worth it now, since there are many instances during the main quest where violence can either be minimized or completely avoided using sneaking, thieving & social talents.

My human noble would've jumped the gloating bastard when Loghain took him along to Eamon's estate. And any other character would've jumped Ser Cautherine for calling the PC a churl. For a dark heroic fantasy, there's never a Renegade interrupt around when you need one.

Most kids come into contact with violence from a very young age. Visit any playground at schools, and count the kids fighting. It's basic human instinct, fueled further by violence seen on TV. When I was a kid, we'd mostly emulate the A-team... later came the Power Rangers... nowadays it must be Pok

The best FemSheps can go with is Garrus... but of course scalies might not be for everyone. Try a Sentinel for a good all-round class. If one runs out of ammo, one can destroy everything by using Magic Missiles Heavy Warp/Heavy Overload... cooldowns will be only a couple of seconds with the right upgrades too. Take along Zaeed & Miranda and combat gets pretty trivial. I'm surprised by the old man, in fact... just like Shale in DA:O he has a good deal of input during missions... and is pretty much unstoppable.

If he doesn't die, I'll kill him.

Witcher 2 ME 3 Drakensang: Phileasson expansion Dreamfall Chapters

A better idea would've been to remake Severance: blade of darkness and make it co-op. It's kinda the best hack 'n slash fantasy game of all time.

That's why the most satisfying part of a Paragon playthrough is tell the Council to shove it. I wonder if this will have some consequences in ME3, like random encounters with Spectre agents trying to eliminate 'rogue' Shepard. *chuckles*

That dragon looks a hell of a lot better than the ones from Gothic 3. I'll be giving the demo a try.

Drakensang 2 review

If not for the "Square Enix", I'd think that was a Peter Molyneux presentation.

Do the horns on the helmet go upward when he's happy to see someone (or something)?

Does one need to have the previous patches installed to install 1.5?

Try killing Fawkes at level 30. He even survives a mininuke to the head.

I'd like some impressions myself. I'm still on the fence about getting it or not... I'm rather sick of DA's combat system & setting, hence not really looking forward to fighting Epic Gnolls Genlocks. Also, judging from the trailers characters didn't seem very interesting. Not to mention, there are no romances. EDIT: well, if patch 1.03 is required, I guess that settles it.

I'm doing a re-run with a Sentinel. I've been giving the Arc Projector a work-out and the weapon feels a bit overpowered. Not only does it clear entire rooms of mooks, even YMIR Mechs get vaporized very quickly. Maybe the next DLC will be the BFG 9000?

Just like Ahmadinejad's remark about "wiping Israel off the map", this reeks of another case of the Western media seeking to demonify a Middle-Eastern leader by quoting out of context.

It would be hilarious if in their next TES game, Bethesda would give M'aiq a few lines about people incessantly whining about their writing.
