Heh, so far the only thing I noticed about the kid and the knife after was running into the kid while his dad was yelling at him. Then I got to be involved in telling the dad that the kid hadn't stolen it. Out of curiosity, was there any major differences depending on your responses to the kid when you handed him the knife? ie; if you had survival at the level to tell him about being practical and safe with it while getting ready to be an adventurer and not just wave it around?

Heh. Snippets from authors that amuse...

I was balancing on whether this deserved to go here under music, or in the funny things thread.. but, since it's all about the cover version.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x-GLzEscCX4

Taking a break from PoE after I noted a weird thing. Act III, I got the return to face Lord Raedric's Challenge quest, turned up, I came, I saw, I killed his ass. I got an exceptional reputation boost with Gilded Vale, picked up the loot, looked around took the exit down through the keep, and suddenly got hit by a large reputation penalty to Gilded Vale. No idea what caused that. Quirky.

I've been enjoying my run around with my Cipher a fair bit. Especially with Detonate. It's fun.

Heh. I have to admit that Lord Raedric's Keep is a bit annoying. I snuck in, had the disguises, wandered around, talked, conned my way past things.. Went down to the catacombs and killed the undead and all that. So everything's going fine, a little bit of management but not any stress to handle the fights.. Then I get to Lord Raedric himself.. and holy hell, party wipe multiple times. I definitely think I'll have to wander off and come back with a full party and another level or two....

PoE. It might sound a little strange, but I have to admit now that we've got a story to go with it and companions to meet, it's much more gripping than poking around the beta was. My cipher drifter is being very rational, diplomatic, with occasional bouts of benevolence (and the odd stabby moment....)

Well, from all accounts it was a verbal argument, and about 30 seconds of actual physical back and forth. The production guy went to A&E (ER) for a split lip. Apparently, the police have now requested the BBC hand over details of their investigation in case of potential criminal charges should be brought.

The Citadel was a large amount of fan-wankery. Really entertaining and amusing, but still what it was. It had a lot of feel-good, a fair few laughs, and some nice Hoo-Rah! moments. And it was totally, utterly aware in itself and what it was doing. That's what made it work. From what it sounds like so far about Jaws of Hakkon, is that it's basically throwing you into the same old, same old. On a game that had a lot of that same old to begin with. But we'll have to wait till there's more out about it and some actual reviews of gameplay. Nothing about it cried out for an immediate acquirement, so , eh.

Top Gear has worked because Clarkson, May, and Hammond are entirely sincerely enthusiastic about what they do, and happen to act like they're still 10 year olds given the keys to the kingdom. They banter, they don't worry about being politically correct, and they have a lot of fun arsing around with cars, engines, and generally bouncing off each other as they figure out what's good about a car.
