    Nonsense, the spirit stuff will save the potentially more interesting human conflicts by making it seem that BW didn't develop them enough. Instead of making a game centered around political intrigue and coming up short, basically BW needs to shift between two storylines to keep the focus moving so that their thin story isn't put to scrutiny. It has been that way since BG. Also, Volo is saying "No" a lot recently and it's just that; no elaboration. I think his spring is loosening who was supposed to keep him winded?

    I thought about that as well and I agree it does put a burden on the GM. The best answer I could come up with was custom descriptions to each player; kind of like the tale of the blind men and the elephant. They get a full picture with imperfect information based on their collective delusion. Schizophrenics might get false information(monster in room), delusions (you killed the monster), or paranoia (you don't know if the monsters are real). While OCD might get prioritized information such as the organization of the room, the smell, how dirty it is, and then see the monster in the room. I remember that the World of Darkness implemented something similar with different clans having to pass checks on their conditions in order to have successful rolls.

    This was interesting http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-26921743

    It also won't be close to hardcore because Obsidian would like more than a couple score thousand people to play the game. I think you're being too kind, if it was hardcore it would be reduced to hundreds. I really don't get people who like a grueling experience where the game mechanics work against you.

    You should check to see if it won't clash with the rest of your rig, if it's the same age as your card it might get you into trouble down the line. I remember having a few video cards burn out because the rest of the rig wasn't up to par.

    Wals how would you feel about the concept of insanity that it's unknown to the player? In RL a lot of mentally unstable people have no idea or a diminished awareness of their condition. It simply makes no sense to me that the player should have perfect information about their condition, for roleplaying purposes it would be interesting to see them try to figure out what's wrong with their character and try different strategies. On a related note, decay mechanics are absurd, slowly prevent any chance of success and turn out to be counter-intuitive since you can only play the game saddled with a dynamic time limit.

    I never really understood Wisdom. It's like DC saying Will is an emotion. It can be if you pass a Willpower check.

    You have somewhere else you need to be?

    Not really a CRPG opinion but: Tales of Symphonia is overrated and nowhere near being the best entry on the series.

    I guess she got turned into a vampire, cause Amy Acker hasn't aged a bit. Thanks Angel!

    It means that whatever picture is posted you replicate, when Woldan posted girls with guns so did you and now its redheads. It's a neutral thing.

    sorophx is like the stem cell of posting pictures.

    As someone who has had that same ****ing phrase said to him in real life for a whole ****ing year wish to healthily say: **** you!

    Technically yes, since schizophrenia is besides being a real disease also a blanket term for a series of unrelated mental symptoms manifesting on the same patient. EG: OCD because a pink elephant looks at you judgingly.

    Maybe an issue with their skybox?

    I don't know about the ones you mentioned but the first image I saw of the Project had a waterfall that was animated.

    That was a beautiful scene

    Winged Orcs; now I've seen everything.

    The only thing I've ever agreed with Ayn Rand is that love is the result of omission (although I also believe it to be caused by acceptance) that we love because we are oblivious or immune to seeing the flaws in something. The opposite must also be true and despair, cynicism and depression are the result of omission of virtues. To be honest I think depression and anxiety are caused by expectations, in the case of depression we have unfulfilled and possibly unrealistic expectations. Unless we are talking about chronic medical depression in which case tell your friend to get his/her ass to a doctor. Also, what does it say about you that your best friend is depressed? Be more amusing ya selfish mook!

    Remember, all military equipment is done by the lowest bidder. They may not think that it is cost effective and that tanks function well enough as is.

    Be wary of tornadoes and remember that there is no place like home....also red shoes wouldn't hurt.

    Madness is a blanket term for a series of defense mechanism the mind establish in order to shield you and deal with some situation. A complete loss of sanity or going into shock is possible, just as it is possible to come out of it. This thread has made me go into shock, I will post when I come out of it.
