I'll echo Sensuki's statement, attribute points are a bit low. Why can't I be reasonably intelligent, fairly perceptive and good at people skills at the same time? -
Eh, seen worse. Like the one with the scraggly-looking rapist Santa Claus. Anyways, I've learned my lesson since then, and don't skip on my sleep time
-
I'd chalk it up to a hallucination induced by sleep deprivation. Have I ever told you guys about the time I hadn't slept enough in a long time and seen a huge glowing purple spider descend on my face?
-
And, to add insult to injury, I will now link to a blog post about why actual play records such as this are awesome. (I will get to continuing someday, I promise.)
-
Since my fire mage has the Haste-equivalent spell, Madora has become my biggest damage dealer. (Rain being a sensible choice more often than not doesn't help said fire mage do her stuff really efficiently, so she's usually buffing.)
-
I think the B or V button does exactly that.
-
If I had to guess, I'd say it's probably because unless you actively try to recall them, you forget 90% of them in minutes, but by writing them down, you're training yourself to try to remember them upon waking.
-
No, look at my post again. I never mentioned IRL. You put that on the end of my post. You've just proved my point. You're own bias has put that on my post and now you see it as IRL. You could have rpgs where an NPC is crippled but still could romance that NPC. You asked whether he'd "go out" with a girl in a wheelchair; since I remember no RPG romance where you could go on dates with your chosen partner, I assumed you meant RL. (Admittedly, I'm no expert on CRPG romances.)
-
But it is kind of a relevant question, and you blurring the lines with questions like "would you date a wheelchair-bound person IRL?" doesn't help.

Erm... you can craft elemental arrows and elemental weapons that let you interact with the elemental fields. Also, certain skills and talents let you do elemental damage with a warrior or an archer. The talents are indeed somewhat lacking (nothing witchery-based? really?), but the attribute mins are fairly forgiving, especially considering the fact that you can equip lots and lots of (also craftable) items that increase your attributes.
-
Do you think Viconia, Jaheria, and Aerie would really fight over Justin Bieber They are fighting over the PC, despite the fact that their ideal partner is so radically different, a single PC could never be a good match for any two of them at the same time... so, one has to wonder about standards.
-
Erm... how exactly?
-
I'm afraid I don't quite understand you. Could you define what you mean by "gimmick" in this context?
-
I dunno, I pretty much already play Black Crusade as Rogue Trader with weirder locales and added HERESY.
-
Those are called "hangovers" I'd agree with you except: 1) I only drank 4 beers yesterday 2) I don't throw up when I'm hungover 3) I sure as hell don't feel this bad, this many hours after drinking four beers. They should have cleared my system hours ago. On the plus side, although I can't stand up, and keep vomiting I can type much much more accurately. Strange. Alcohol consumption and lack of sleep does tend to increase the risk of migraine. I'd definitely check in with a doctor ASAP, though. There's a whole lot of nasty things that produce these symptoms.
-
To be fair, Black Crusade is pretty much geared for fairly short campaigns where players will burn out rapidly and devolve into chaos spawn if they aren't careful... True enough. Which is a shame, IMHO. It has the potential for so much more.
-
Somewhere there was the context...... Anyway, people have different tolerances for dark humor and that sort of symbolism, and that's ok, but the picture isn't laughing at child abuse. It was still fairly tasteless, methinks, but YMMV, obviously.
-
Meh, balance has never really been a concern in Black Crusade. As much as I love that game, it has to be houseruled to hell and back in order to be playable.
-
Yeah, rangers are really awesome in this game. Using special arrows, they can outmage the mage, and on top of that, they have their own incredibly useful abilities, too (Mute jumps to mind immediately).
-
Now that's an interesting viewpoint I haven't considered before.
-
But the chances of the PC stumbling across a veritable menagerie of bisexual/pansexuals like in DA2 is silly. Absurd. Mathematically it is exceptionally unlikely. Not quite astronomical as there are billions of stars in billions of galaxies with an unknown number of planets to them, but still. Silly. Well, that problem is easily solved by making bisexuality the norm in your setting.
-
You left out Metrosexual Emo Elf.
-
I dunno, they're promising us a fair bit of branching and nonlinearity, so you probably wouldn't get the same story twice (based on the extent of said branching and nonlinearity, you might even get two fairly different stories - they did this pretty well in Alpha Protocol, I have no reason to think they can't do it again).
-
I sense another story worth telling...
-
That, or tooltips, or an in-depth tutorial or whatever. A reasonable expectation, although I personally wouldn't think the devs intended to release the game without any of those.
