  1. Play NWN2, it is a decent game, even OC isn't so bad as some people believe, and everyone agrees that Mask of the Betrayer is a masterpiece. If you don't play Dungeon Siege 3, you won't miss much.
  2. Original Fallout music was also quite different from PST soundtrack. It's good to see that Mark didn't lose his touch.
  3. I don't think that Chris is planning to finish his playthrough. Probably, he will stop when he reach Tarant.
  4. Baldur's Gate is one of my favourite games, though I've played it years after the release (unlike the others here). I liked the story and characters (Jaheira, Imoen, Kivan, Minsc, Dynaheir...), combat and exploration were fun and the music great (it was written by Michael Hoenig himself!). When I moved on to play Baldur's Gate 2, I liked it too, of course, it is a superior game. There were a downside though - BG2 was too story-driven, and sometimes it felt a bit restricting. And, more importantly, the story itself wasn't very good. As for Icewind Dale, those games are basically just dungeon crawlers. I liked the atmosphere in IWD, but never finished the sequel, just got tired of all the combat. They were fun to play, yes, but I really hope that Project: Eternity will not be an updated version of IWD.
  5. That's an excellent point. If melee fighters are overpowered, then playing P:E could be a nightmare.
  6. Not sure what does it mean, but it sounds intriguing.
  7. Yeah... When I replay Icewind Dale, I always choose this voice for my dwarven fighter. And I always have a dwarven fighter in my party.
  8. I agree that combat doesn't look very impressive, but otherwise, the game did have a lot of potential.
  9. Maybe more people will be involved on later stages of development.
  10. It seems that developers somehow forgot about this. It is also a matter of production costs, I think.
  11. Not this again. You know, I've bought boxed copy of KOTOR 2, played the game and finished it, and I encountered only one serious bug (when you meet Handmaiden on Telos). The game has bad reputation not because of the bugs, but because of the ending.
  12. And Fargo said that we won't have to rotate the camera... I hope that PE devs won't change their minds as well. I can live with that, of course, but this is just annoying, constantly moving it to see many small objects on the ground.
  13. Chris probably tried to play unpatched version gifted to him by the Codex (with the most vile intent, no doubt) and rage quit after one of the game-breaking bugs. No Arcanum footage for you, sorry(((
  14. it doesn't mean "eagle" orly? Белоголовый орлан = Haliaeetus leucocephalus = Bald eagle point being: there's no word for "орлан" in English. or, what's more likely, there's not enough of a difference between the two to be called differently, so it's the same thing, and Russians are overcomplicating it. I don't want to argue, but perhaps you should learn Russian before jumping to conclusions? On a side note, 'orlan' is probably not based on a Russian word at all and this is just a coincidence. We don't know who came up with it and why.
  15. Orlan is a strange word, it doesn't really sound 'Russian' though it exists in the Russian language and means not "eagle" (oryol) but a different bird of prey, that resembles eagle. Orlan and oryol have the same root (orl) but orlan also has suffix 'an'. It's unusual for Russian and also quite ancient. For example 'bratan' means 'bro', while 'brat' means 'brother'. 'Bratan' is considered informal or even offensive today but it was more widespread in ancient times.
  16. I'm not sure if I even want KOTOR 3 to be made. They would probably make something like Mass Effect 3 or Dragon Age 2, and I don't like those games.
  17. I've picked the last option. Let the man play Arcanum in pieces in peace and enjoy the game.
  18. That's a tough choice, really, because I liked most of them. Morte Dakkon Virgil Marcus Bao-Dur Something like this. And no Kreia, she was just annoying. Atton is Morte, basically.
