Oerwinde

I was reading Nextwave and had to post this:

Well its all mostly just buildings. I haven't got many props, and no NPCs in there yet, so it doesn't lag very much. Loading time is on the longer side though.

Ok, so refusing to go off and murder innocent women and children and taking a stand against injustice and dying for your beliefs would cause people to look upon you in shame? I'd totally be a draft dodger. If Canada became some sort of crazy imperialistic war machine, I think I'd skip out and go to australia or Ireland or something.

The only vaguely noteworthy event at work tonight was this guy who wanted to use the bathroom. I said "Sorry, they're closed for cleaning" and the guy is like "I just have to pee" and I'm like "Sorry, closed for cleaning" I mean, I'm standing there with a mop, half the floor is wet, etc. Eventually after I tell him its closed 3 or 4 more times he gets pissed off and just shoves passed me into the bathroom. So I continued mopping while he was taking a piss. Shoving the mop under the stall door and such, making sure to be as annoying as possible. I hate stupid people.

Christmas is still a month away, what are you a mall? HA, I'm hilarious. Seriously, welcome to the boards.

That one is as big as it will go. The north gate and docks will be the same width from east to west, but not as wide north to south.

The towel dispenser in the bathroom at my high school had the label "Intentional misuse may be harmful or fatal"

The funny thing is, Quebec has provided most of our political leaders. They have run the government for a good portion of its history.

WoW has about the same amount of customization that NWN2 has. CoH/CoV has HUGE customization levels. You never see two people who look alike unless they're friends who purposefully made similar costumes. Or if they'r'e female characters with the witchblade costume. There are tons of those. And for some reason they always tend to win the damn costume contests.

Also I take it your reading Nextwave? :sigh: can't find the cover from the "not a cival war tie in" issue. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I've read the first issue and laughed my ass off. I have the rest downloaded, and I'll be picking up the trade when it comes out. Oh, here's from the latest email from Warren Ellis on Bad Signal:

I agree. Some of the portraits were awesome, mainly the elves. They had some decent looking halflings and dwarves also. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Most of the male portraits were crappy. I'd say about 85%. The majority of female portraits were good though. Too bad I don't play females. There were a lot of pretty good custom ones, too bad I never found a single portrait that matched how I pictured my character. And when I finally found one that almost did, there was no way to duplicate it with the crappyness that was NWN1 heads. I mean seriously, what was with those damned mustaches.

Oh yeah, nothing can stop him. He doesn't do quite as much damage, but he can't be touched. He's always the last one to die. In my fight against the end boss him and my main were the only ones to survive, and my main only survived due to large amounts of potions and healing spells. Khelgar only needed a single lay on hands for the whole fight.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well, the easiest response to like 90% of the complaints is: "We wanted to focus on the single player aspect" The only major problems outside of the many multiplayer issues were the AI/Pathfinding and engine optimization. As long as you used the top down view, the camera wasn't really an issue. Oh, and to the topic of the reviews getting worse, as both threads on the topic have been closed: I find that all the negative reviews tend to be like "this is awesome, this is awesome, this is awesome, this is awesome, this is awesome, I can only get 12 fps. 5/10"

You aren't still sore about the Flames beating out the Canucks in '04 on the way to the finals are you? " <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No, they deserved it. I even rooted for the flames for the rest of the playoffs. I'm still sore about the bet I made with one of the cooks at work in '03 when the Flames beat the canucks and I was out a case of beer. Also: Canadians strongly reject Quebec nationhood Seems everyone except francophones who live in quebec think its a dumb idea. Francophones outside quebec think its dumb, and anglophones inside quebec think its dumb.

Actually, I believe Montreal is one of the more federalist areas. Quebec City is the separatist haven as far as I know. Though I don't live in Quebec so I may be wrong. Wipe that out and we're good. And while you're at it, get rid of Calgary. Who needs a city of 1 million that takes up the same land area as new york city. Especially when its full of poser cowboys... and the flames...

they can leave but they have to leave behind all the parts that voted non in the last referendum. Meaning southern and northern quebec. They get the little landlocked nation that will be left over.

After that happened, now the BC premier is campaigning to have the first nations people declared a nation. Then eventually the asian community of BC will want it too. And there isn't even any sort of benefit from it.

Some armor have helms set in the armor properties, which change when you put on equipment of that type. So a helm will be set in the armor properties so if you wear that armor and no helm, a helm still shows. But if you put a helm on, your helm changes to that one. Maybe you had the helm on already, then put on an armor with a preset helm.

Just got the trade of Desolation Jones. Awesome. Thats all I can say. Me and my girlfriend are going to Comic Con next year because Warren Ellis will be there for the first time in 8 years, and likely won't be going for at least another 8.

Without cheating I managed to get up to 20th level for my non ECL characters by the endgame, so its not that bad. Once I did that I cheated to get my ECL characters to 20

Oblivion sucked. NWN2 was good. Thats the main difference between the two.

Being huge box office blockbusters negates cult status. Star Wars is not a cult film, neither is the matrix.
