The general simplification when it came to weapons/moves/combat score and boss fights.The latter got so bad with the pull chains that any form of regular movement was undesirable. Just so I understand what you mean are you saying that using the chain pull strategy made the boss fights too easy?

I have just finished the latest version of DMC (Devil May Cry) and I loved it. I'm not sure why more people don't rate it more highly. The aspects of the game I really enjoyed include The interpretation of the world beset by demonic forces who seek to control humanity. If such things were real that's exactly how they would operate. Controlling the media and financial institutions makes sense There were a huge number of combat moves and ways to make Dante really effective in combat When you died you weren't sent back too far in the game, so there wasn't this sense of frustration around death The narrative was interesting. I liked the way Vergil recruited Dante and the reasons around who they were and why they opposed Mundus If you played this game what didn't you enjoy about it?

Nice one with the weight loss, I've lost 4.5 KG since the beginning of the year. But I have started going back to gym and I'm doing 60 minutes of cardio a day. That sounds like a delicious spread you did for your friends You seem to be quite the accomplished amateur chef How dare you sir, I am no amateur! Are you a qualified chef? I was making a joke. Okay but you could have been a qualified chef, which is why I asked

Bethesda was downright lazy in Skyrim. The dungeons? Handcrafted my ass. It's the same design over and over. I haven't played Skyrim yet, I've been waiting for the Legendary edition but I will assume that nothing beats the laziness of the dungeon creation of DA2? Even I noticed that and I'm generally not critical at all

GB why don't you come live in South Africa? You can bring Tommy and we don't have the money to afford programs like Prism so you won't have your privacy compromised? I have to say I think GD would ****ing love South Africa. He's got trade skills. He could buy a big bit of land. Great food, great wine, decent beer. Plus if you get angry you can walk out, climb a tree, and punch a giraffe. Well said my friend As usual you skilfully demonstrate your impressive ability to combine humor with facts in your posts, nice one

You're not the only one "Least likely to be absolute arse" Holy Smoke, that is awesome Who did that?

That's a bunch of really glowing reviews of the hands-off demo. Hopefully that level of quality reflects on the final product, and throughout, not just in one area or act. They're making a MASSIVE world that, from all accounts, dwarfs Skyrim, so it will be a tall task to populate the whole area with interesting things to do and encounter. Hopefully CD Projekt RED can pull it off. I have faith in them. Keyrock you said exactly what I wanted to say I can't believe the number of really good reviews this game is getting, for me this is inspirational. I'm now even more excited

And you weren't raped or murdered? Hm, my sources on RSA are inaccurate! Yeah, I barely managed to survive this trip

Relationship/Romance Thread IV
BruceVC replied to Tigranes's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
Certainly not if she doesn't make sense within the setting and its values, or if she's weaker as a character than the others, being thrown in there for the sake of it. Well I think that is obvious isn't it? Surly for a character to be memorable and to be part of your party you would have think they are appropriate to your gaming experience Ladies like Fall-From-Grace, Viconia and Isabela were all valuable additions to the party and also worth Romancing or trying to Romance -
I love my barbeque, I often watch the Food Network channel and you see these various food documentaries where people travel around the USA and visit various places that specialize in barbeque. I have seen places in Texas, Kansas, Tennessee and the Carolinas that do these amazing barbeque Ribs, Brisket and Streak. They always leave me salivating and hungry Oh and smoking meat looks very common in the USA. We don't smoke meat much, we typically do them straight over an open grill

I went for lunch today in Pretoria which is another city about 60 km from where I live in Johannesburg. I had some of the BEST spare ribs I've had in ages. Meat falling off the bone and a delicious barbeque sauce. Its doesn't get much better than that

The system is legal, so the point is moot. The logic "if something ends up where it shouldn't" is bizarre. There is no guarantee that a surgeon won't accidentally sew up a scalpel in your abdomen. There is no guarantee that a policeman won't confuse you for a suspect and detain you. There's no guarantee that you won't get ran over by a car next time you cross the road. See the pattern? But if surgeon or policmen do something wrong he is controlled and will be punished, who control these agencies? + System is maybe legal in US, noone asked me or EU if we are ok with it. I starting to think that you are that type of american who thinks America is tha best and can do whatever you guys want Chilloutman you do realize that Prism is probably monitoring what you say about it right now? Don't be surprised if men in coats come knocking at your door later tonight and say " we would like a word with you"

Relationship/Romance Thread IV

No, all members of my party must be useful in combat and add value during the quest. But this is a thread about Romance\Sex so that is what I thought we were discussing? -
Relationship/Romance Thread IV
BruceVC replied to Tigranes's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
Ah, but what makes you think that there will be some party member you're attracted to? I mean, I get that you push for sexy women with stripperific outfits in the game every time the topic arises because that's what you like, but so far, the art style hasn't gone in that direction. Imagine that all female characters in your party were in that style. Imagine that they were as attractive as Cadegund or Sagani, which you haven't shown much interest for. Even worse, imagine that the women of the party are of the more bestial races, like orlan or aumaua (or some sort of deformed Godlike). Would you be okay with that? Just curious to know You are 100% correct, if all the females were like Cadegund or bestial races I would be disappointed because mentally I would battle to make the mental connection that my characters would be attracted to them. Don't get me wrong I want a variety of females characters. I just think an Isabela type person can only enhance the game? -
Hi. I'm. William. Hague. I. Try. To. Sound. Like. Churchill. But. End. Up. Sounding. Like. A. Bad. Impression. Of. Captain. Kirk Meh, the real Churchill would have advocated gassing the arabs for being brown and uppity, per Iraq. Okay funniest post of the week award go's to you

Its never over the top if you are not included. Its just one of the things human beings aspire to and desire to achieve

Wow that is pretty cool, I had thought they'd allow it to be free as long as you're not failing horribly - sort of like a scholarship or something. Pity you live in Canada hey Malc but at least Canada is the land of the " Moose and the Caribou" That's better than free education. Ask Ros the last time he saw a Moose?

Hurlshot when we use to go on trips in our RV my dad use to let us attach a rope to the back of the RV and he would pull us on our skateboards on the quiet roads, that's something I'm sure your kids would enjoy?

Your character looks like quite a hottie, nice one

Wanting that doesn't always make sense though and you don't want to create some sort of checklist a designer has to go through because that sort of handcuffs them, no ? Guess it's just foreign to me to want a protagonist that is like me in order to enjoy a game. No its not unreasonable, in fact "those people" want exactly the same thing. I'm glad you can empathize with them
