A plot suggestion
If you start out on the dark side though there should be an option to stay on the dark side. I still think being able to choose the good or evil path can still be an option and satisfy the people who don

The forums are back
That's what I was thinking the delay was. They closed down the forums, because they wanted to bring them back up with a brand new section on the new game. Maybe even changing the format to match the new game, etc... Pipe dreams I guess. :angry:

Who's doing the talking?
I agree with Di, I would much rather have more gameplay than more VO. Even though I like good VO, balancing issues, story, combat system, roleplaying options, etc.. all have more importance. VO is just eye (or ear) candy. Although, I

Relations with Interplay- Fallout, Baldur's Gate
Z have you ever thought that there probably is no love between IPLY and Obsidian. Black Isle was Feargus' pride and joy, do you think he was happy resigning? Not only that Obsidian needs to make a name for themselves, they do not need to affiliate themselves with old IPY titles like IWD, BG or Fallout. And, sorry FO fans but I want something new and exciting, I don't want to see obsidian being a retro game publisher. FO, IWD and BG are dead.

You know, I think I've got to the point where I just don't care about IPLY anymore. I could care less if Hearve gets sued. I don

What game element is most important to you?
Many things, but a great story is also a must. After playing ToEE I forgot how important a story is to keep me interested in playing. There was no desire to keep playing in ToEE because there was no story pulling you along.

To sequel or not to sequel..?
Improved tweaks to an engine are all I require. Like mentioned above if I'm playing a sequel then I expect some things, and one is similarity in the engine/interface/combat etc... Now, if a sequel is 5 years or more from an original then I would expect a new engine, but if it were only1 or 2 years, then I would probably just expect tweaks to the original engine.

Women Over 40 Biggest Online Gamers
Women Over 40 Biggest Online Gamers - Study By Ben Berkowitz LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Think teenagers are spending all night long playing online games on the computer? Wrong -- it's their mothers burning the midnight oil. AOL, a unit of Time Warner Inc., released a study on Tuesday showing that U.S. women over the age of 40 spend nearly 50 percent more time each week playing online games than men and are more likely to play online games daily than men or teens. Of those women over 40 who had formed online friendships, AOL said, more than 20 percent converted those virtual connections into real-life relationships. Fueling the arguments of those who say that gaming takes away from other activities, 44 percent of the women over 40 who responded to the survey, conducted by Digital Marketing Services, said they spend less time watching TV or movies, reading or being physically active because of their game play. More than a quarter of those women, the survey found, play their favorite games between midnight and 5 a.m. Women in the poll tended to favor word and puzzle games. About half of teens surveyed reported spending more time playing games than reading and more than a quarter doing more gaming than homework. AOL also did research on gaming habits in major cities, finding that people who play games online in Los Angeles are far more likely (31 percent) to form off-line relationships than the national average (18 percent). Atlanta and Boston were the most game-happy cities overall, at about 8 hours per capita per week, the survey said. The survey was conducted online with 3,613 respondents between mid-December and mid-January, the company said. -A pretty small study, but believable, my mom plays card games non-stop. Also, pretty funny about on-line gaming is turning into real life relationships for these women. I think online gaming might put Matchmaker out of business. :D
