  1. Now all you have to do is add the Droid factory back in and finish the rest of the game.
  2. I can't believe you're still whining about this, Visceris. This has to be a new record.
  3. The RPG Codex was certainly not the only site to pull an April Fools joke. GameSpot had 4.
  4. You're making fun of our writing skill? You, of all people? Please take a good look at yourself in the mirror. You are free to believe that, if you find such thoughts comforting. It was an April Fool's joke. Nothing more, nothing less. I'm rather appalled by the lack of a sense of humor and/or intelligence displayed by some of the posters here pertaining to their reaction to the aforementioned April Fool's joke.
  5. You're really taking this hard, aren't you, Visceris?
  6. I hope it's not a console-only title, or I wouldn't be able to play it. I would be really dissapointed if it were only developed for the console and not for the PC.
  7. Thanks, it sounds great. I'm looking forward to it, especially the 3rd person combat. I was afraid it would be a first person shooter or worse, a Morrowind combat clone.
  8. Where'd you get the idea that it was first person?
  9. Homoeroticism at the Obsidian community? Whoda thunk it?
  10. Careful Gromnir, you post there quite a lot.
  11. You just have to start a thread, there's no rule against that. A lot of 'general discussion' happens in preexisting threads, stuff unrelated to the subject of the thread, even. You'll have developers from Bethesda describing some of the features of Oblivion in a thread related to Troika's demise, or something, heh.
  12. You guys can come over to the RPGCodex. Beats the heck out of the LucasForums, Bioware or "Mistress' Lair". Feargus and MCA post at the Codex, and quite a number of the members on this forum already post there, anyhow. We're not power-crazy mod-happy lunatics, so discussions are pretty free, and we don't lock threads when the pages mount up (that's silly!) The community can be kept alive. edit: I hate to sound like a vulture but I'd hate to see this community dissapear because of the boards shutting down.
  13. It'd be nice to keep the forums open, to be sure, but I think that this allows for community websites and forums to blossom. As Killzig said at the RPG Codex: "Save themselves some bandwidth, let the fan sites handle the forums. Maybe they can foster some good feelings that way. Not that they need to. Just think its better when a company doesn't have their own personal forum with their own little goon squad making things a nightmare." Frankly, I agree with that statement. If any of you need a new home, there's always the RPG Codex. We don't ban for any reason, either. Moderation is minimum, so any discussion is unprohibited. I hate to sound like a vulture, but there aren't too many places to go to that cover Obsidian's RPGs like KOTOR2 and NWN2 as much as we do that support open discussion on other matters, with included participation from the developers (Chris Avellone, Feargus, etc).
  14. I'm very much looking forward to this title. JE seems like he can churn out a solid title.
  15. Hahaha. I sincerely hope you win the award. You definitely deserve it.
  16. Are you saying that Arcanum had poor gamebalance or that it was hard? The first I can agree with... it had one of the crapyest systems i have ever seen, but it definetly wasnt hard... ...hmm... I think I just answered my question.... ohh well <_< <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Poor game balance. It wasn't hard, but BMC was impossible for gunsmiths with no followers. They got really screwed because the enemies resisted all their attacks. The system was just horrible, since you had only 1 point to spend on your stats as well as skills. It wasn't balanced at all. The combat made it all the worse.
  17. Piracy's pretty rampant, but good games deserve your money. Buying pirated won't get you the cool manuals or whatever else besides the games that come in the box, either.
  18. I usually save it for the games I really want to play. Bioware's games, with the exception of NWN, were worth buying, IMO, as well as many of the games that Interplay and Black Isle Studios released. I've also got all of Blizzard's titles.
  19. In my local currency, RM100 is US$38. Of course, standards of living are much cheaper, so while the average person might make RM2000 a month here, it's just like making $2000 dollars somewhere in the United States. But when the whole transfer rate thing kicks in, it's a real pain in the ass, especially to import stuff like games, because we end up paying an amount of money that would feel similar to how you feel if you had to pay US$235 dollars for a game.
  20. I feel pretty ripped off because I put down RM235 (Malaysian dollars) on it. Technically that's only 235/3.8 because of the transfer rate, but it's equal to 235 US dollars, at least for me. That sucks.
  21. I think that the real losers in this whole situation are the customers who bought Bloodlines and the people who worked at Troika. The bosses definitely aren't losing much, but lots of people are out of a job because of the mismanagement by the higher ups and their inability to get any new contracts. The customers who bought Bloodlines are essentially doomed to playing an unfinished game that won't be patched because the BL team got laid off. Whether Activision wants to finance a new patch is meaningless, since there isn't anyone to do the job. edit: In other news it looks like some of the rabid fanboys at the codex ( http://www.rpgcodex.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=6348 ) are really pissed off at my comments and are trying every single angle to discount my remarks.
