We'll have to agree to disagree on the last sentence...

Dragon Age: Inquisition
They need to go completely one way or the other. They need to either go the full Shepard or full-on tactical. If they try to blend aRPG and tactical RPG once more, we're likely going to get garbage combat like DA2 again.I'll just say (again) that I found Da2's combat a lot more fun than the alpha strike heavy dao combat. Just because it had an isonetric zoom didn't mean that storm if the century wasn't the best call every time

Dragon Age: Inquisition
"We decided to take the best parts of combat in dao and da2 so we took the da2 system and slowed it down!" That's what it looks like. I'm gonna slit my wrists. Seriously, the one thing that made da2 enjoyable to me was the speed. Scorpion wins, fatality. What the **** am I seeing?

What you did today
It was necessary, what was Tommy doing when you shot the Coyote? Well, he was growling at the front door downstairs when they first started yapping around the grill. I was by the loft window upstairs. I had it open but I was back in the room about 1 meter from the window so they wouldn't see me. I watched them for about 5 minutes until a really big one came out and started pushing the others around. I figured he was my guy. Once I shot I think tommy went from growling to barking. I'm not sure. My ears are still ringing from firing from inside a small room! Dude, Peltor or MSA Sordin. I wouldn't dream of being close to a firearm going off without some these days, I suffered enough during my military service. You reminded me of someone. Austrian lawyer, 2 masters' degrees. Legs for days. Need to check up on her.

In view of the discussion on the other page, my view is that they are just following the path started by the previous administration. Cowing the people into submission with the antiterror show. And that's where my disappointment with the guy stems from.

I actually had to get one for an application earlier this year. It looked very boring.

Better than constipated and perspiring!

I don't think you've seen too many rises out of me over the years (a few, I admit) so you're not as successful at trollin as you think you are

And that's what I respect you for. Well, that and a few other things, but

I have a similar plan for the skateboarders who are obsessed with the stairs to my mother's condo. I mean, leave a few alive to pass the word, right?

But wouldn't sodomy be a rather favourable outcome to a date?

Edited: I don't like them because they come into threads about Bioware games to crap there and ram their agenda down my throat, as I said.

Don't forget to tell us how the date went. Well, obviously this is for a woman. But i think you chaps overestimate how hard a souffle is. Modern ovens, and thick glassware make them a doddle. And they are a very good way to deliver a taste kick. I don't really have an opinion on the difficulty, a souffle thread just sort of sticks out here. Personally, I go for nachos. Sets the initial expectations suitably low. Also, helps fetter out the ones who don't eat from the ones who exercise like crazy

Most of the gay people you meet won't introduce themselves as such, so... Frankly, the most ramming down the throat I have to endure is from Bioware haters, with straight white people standing up in affected moral outrage for the rights of every concievable minority a close second and gays themselves... well, not on the list at all.

Wouldn't it be nice to live in a world where we didn't notice that development companies offered options for straight and gay players? It would just be as normal as choosing to play male or female. That's the level of progression I want all companies and people to get to, a level where we don't comment at all about this topic as its so common. There's probably more gay gamers than straight female gamers, anyway...

Removed, pending confirmation quoted gaider post is not faked.

Agree on the dao aesthetic, the art direction for da2 was a cluster****, even I can see that.

I've referenced this before, but William Gibson wrote (in Mona Lisa overdrive, iirc) about how the fabulously wealthy are no longer human. That the daily struggle to exist is such a core part of out existence, that the ultra rich either become inhuman in a hannibal cannibal sense or start developing all sorts of quirks. Often they'll just create problems out of thin air. In personal experience, this also applies to extremely beautiful people, perhaps even more so, because they are used to getting things for FREE instead of just having masses of the commonly accepted currency. Now Valve seems to be proof positive that this effect also applies to companies. With legions of fanboys wanting to throw their money at them and ONLY them, they've had to develop all these odd perfectionist quirks just to have some adversity in their life.

Personally think one should target the recruiting grounds of the terrorists. McDonalds, Disney world, Harry Potter. Fat 10 year olds in strollers... Soon they'll start school shooting each other and leave us in peace.
