The Black Whirlwind?

The manual doesn't really explain the talent tests. It's explained ratherwell (with examples) on the wiki The Amazon's quest is triggered at a certain point but with or without she will never say much.

Imoen became dark & gritty. She now kills people out-of-the-blue for no apparent reason. I'm afraid for such a trigger-happy companion in my party. I want rational, disciplined beings, not psychotics or emotionally tortured ones... hence I'll most likely use the dog, Wynne & the qunari.

It would be possible, though, considering April's very nature & what the White Dragon said to her in the prologue of the game (not to mention in Dreamfall). Btw, it's ironic that April has a (excellent) discussion about art similar to this thread with a pivotal character in TLJ...

Pacman is art because it has a soul. Or rather, several ghosts.

Microsoft should include that 'ROM check fail' game during the installation process of one of their OS.

Basically all tests in the game are 3 rolls with a 20-sided dice - skills/spells are all governed by 3 attributes and you need to roll *below* each attribute to be 'succesful'. If not, then your talent/spell prowess is used to try to 'bend' the checks into success... TP* & SP* are the remains of your talent prowess & spell prowess after the check... SP* is often used in spell effects and if it is 0 after a spell check, it's possible that the spell has no effect at all even though it cost 'mana'... I'm replaying the game as a 'warrior' so this time I can take along some other companions. Gladys can stay, though, as I quite like her occasional smart-mouthing comments.

That *would* be technically possible, considering what happens in Dreamfall... I wouldn't be surprised even if Ragnar was partly inspired by PS:T considering the esoteric stuff he came up with in Dreamfall.

Guess one must read it in context...

Or TLJ & Dreamfall forums... If Tornquist manages to somehow tie all loose ends together, it will be the awesomest story ever.

"Walking around without worries" seems a strange comment with all the annoying critters that are constantly on your back in Bethesda games. Anyway, I've finally decided to pre-order DA:O along with Venetica (which is also coming in November). Tee hee.

Link, please!

Maybe I should play it one of these days.

The Fleet-footed Ferret

It seems Safiya with the "Vampiric Feast" spell is the Win Button right there. That is, if them vampires wouldn't save against the spell anyway.

Vampire Ancients that can kill your entire party in five seconds.

I checked at my local game-shop and there the release date listed was 16 October. But strangely enough the game wasn't classicfied under 'RPG' but 'Action/adventure'...

Wasn't Aribeth quicker?

I've downloaded the Arkham Asylum demo so I'll see what all the fuzz is about with that game. Also, the new monster patch for Divinity 2 was just released (760 MB) and now finally the graphics can be adjusted to top-notch. Looks like a completely different game now. Pity they didn't fix the lousy ending.

Thought it would fit since that man is the legendary David Gaider.

Big Rigs movie starring Hayden Christensen, Megan Fox & Eric Roberts?

This pic would perhaps have been even more applicable:

WET seems like future Uwe Boll material.

Why, Lord, why are those Evony ads everywhere?

Dreamfall was so memorable that I don't even remember the name of the purple-shirted chick... only that she had an annoying voice. The victorious heroes staring in the sunset: Another RPG finished.
