  1. It was better than the original. Dear god did the original suck.
  2. Yup, but Jade Empire is a different take on the fantasy genre. Its not stereotypical swords and sorcery with dragons and elves and whatnot. I would like something that isn't swords and sorcery. I would absolutely love a good Steampunk game. A lot more over the top than Arcanum though. Something more like Chris Bachalo and Joe Kelly's SteamPunk comic series, with the emphasis on crazy technology instead of the battle of magic and technology
  3. The only moral issue when it comes to Gay rights is whether or not we persecute people based on a genetic trait. Personally I see no difference between allowing Jews or Blacks to marry and allowing gays to marry. When it comes to science, the whole moral thing is based on if there is a god. If it goes against "god's will" then its immoral, which is crap. God never said we couldn't genetically engineer things, or clone things, etc. anyway. Morality has already crippled psychological research because they have to inform you exactly what they'll be doing now, which spoils any of the data aquired.
  4. I've found that its not nearly as common after the patch, but it does happen. pre-patch it was every other conversation. Now its only 1 in 10
  5. Civ 3 is TBS
  6. Well I'm referring to the movie not the manga, maybe the manga is better. Haven't seen it. I'm also not a big fan of the art style in Miyazaki's films. His movies are pretty much the best Anime out there, but I'm not a fan of the art.
  7. Same. We need another steampunk RPG, with a graphics engine that can really show it off.
  8. Thats because he was the only one who wasn't a complete knob. I had hoped Vrook had died in the first game.
  9. I didn't like Carth, Juhani, Mission, Zalabar, or Hanharr. Basically I didn't like Carth because he was a whiny bitch, I didn't like Juhani because she didn't look like a Cathar, and was whiny. I didn't like Mission because she was whiny. And I don't like Wookiees. My top 5 in no order would be Atton, Jolee, HK-47, Visas, and Mira. I liked Atton because he was interesting. His back story and attitude were great. The whole Pazaak thing got annoying though. I liked Jolee because my favorite Archetype is the kickass old man. HK-47 was just damn hilarious. I liked Visas because: Cool design, mysterious, Miraluka are neat, good voice, just all around good character. Mira was just not the typical female character, but they didn't make her the kickass girl character either. She's the perfect blend of typical female character, and kickass girl character.
  10. Well, I haven't finished it, but from what I've read there are 3 different endings. One where you side with LaCroix, one where you side with the Anarchs, and one where you don't side with either and are in it for yourself.
  11. http://forums.obsidianent.com/index.php?showtopic=34065 http://forums.obsidianent.com/index.php?showtopic=34088 Wrong Forum.
  12. I know they've hired a bunch since they first started, and some people left as well, so instead of most of them being ex-BIS, its more like only half now. My statement just wasn't very clear. I didn't mean OE in general would be more familiar with it, just the ex-BIS guys. But then again, its been what? almost 2 years now since they worked with it? So I guess you're right.
  13. I saw that show. It was the one where Dennis Leary is the baseball lovin dad, right? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yup.
  14. Well a lot of the guys at Obsidian wrote the Mystary engine, so I'd think they'd be even more intimately familiar with that one.
  15. Well, Onderon was part of the EU before Obsidian put it in KotOR2, and Iziz has always been the capital city of Onderon. And Bioware was the one who put the Iziz reference in KotOR1, so I'd say either coincidence, or lack of imagination on Bioware's part. I'm leaning towards coincidence Also, obscure SW character roles: Carrie Fisher(Leia) played a nun in Charlies Angels 2, and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. She also played a hooker on a TV show once called These Old Broads. Billy Dee Williams(Lando) played Harvey Dent in Tim Burton's Batman. James Earl Jones reprised his role in the 2005 direct to video sequel to The Sandlot. The Sandlot by the way is a great movie, see it now.
  16. Get the PC version :D Darth Revan Robes replacement: http://www.pcgamemods.com/7685/ Revan Redemption Robes(Blue, or Star Forge Robe colors, for lightside) http://www.angelfire.com/crazy2/xclone_0101/images/rrr.rar

  18. Well, its not really a good statistic, but every Japanese exchange student in my high school could draw that well, if not better. (Akira really didn't have art that was all that great) We got about 4 japanese exchange students a year, 3 years in high school, so 12 out of 12 aint bad.
  19. Ok, moron. You want tactless? I'll give you tactless. You are not superhuman. The fact that you think you're wiser than Buddha shows you have more like 12 wisdom than 20+. Your ignorance of what we are discussing shows you don't have genius level intelligence. You may be strong, but you're not more dexterous than an olympic gymnast, martial arts master, and contortionist put together, no matter what your 20+ wisdom may make you believe. The first step to enlightenment is knowing you know nothing. I think you skipped that step. If you thought my first response was tactless, then dear god how will you respond to this. Also, using your modifiers I ended up with 23 intelligence and 19 wisdom. Which is aboslute bull****. You don't get bonuses to your stats for being able to do things. You are able to do things because of the stats you have. (Wisdom being the only exception, but keeping a journal, giving to charity, staying single, DMing, or playing a game won't make you wiser)
  20. While the first version is better, the 2nd version looks more like Carth.
  21. It would have been cool if all the Jedi Master conversations had as much depth as the first one with Atris. I loved when you get to the point in her conversation where you're winning the argument and she just gives up and pretty much tells you you're wrong and to shut up.
  22. I believe Blu-Ray and HDDVD are merging. Probably because Toshiba realized that Blu-Ray is a far superior technology and wanted a stake in it. But anyway, only one new format instead of two. Smart move by both Sony and Toshiba.
  23. I can somewhat believe your other stats, but Dex and Wisdom no. 18 is the limit of human potential without magical augmentation. Keep in mind 9-10 is average. Einstein would probably be 18 intelligence, not at least 19(inferring it could possibly be higher). We're going by D&D rules here, not house rules.
