Historically, Paladins weren't religious zealots; they were esteemed knights of the Court of Charlemagne. Their particular qualities were heroism and chivalry, rather than just slaying evil creatures. Obsidian has just moved away from the particularly LG D&D-bent of the class and made them more general. I'm not really seeing a problem with that.

With the more limited spell selection now, I'm hoping they'll introduce something like metamagic manipulation. I.e. sacrifice one aspect of a spell for another -- more power for smaller area; more range for easier resistance, etc. That will give us more choice in how to apply those limited spells.

What we call the beginning is often the end And to make and end is to make a beginning. The end is where we start from.

I propose a softcore mode. It's like hardcore mode except you only suffer a petite mort and you have to use a name like Lance Hardwood.

Didn't the Watcher gradually rediscover a past life though throughout the story? At least it seemed that way.

Plurale tantum

I'd much rather have a PC game ported to consoles than vice versa. As long as our available choices aren't reduced, it's no skin off my back.

wow that's an beauty orlan there. i really hope she's a fully companion.. or being made into one at least in the expansion DLC. Forget it, man. You'd just end up with fleas, and then you'd have to delouse the entire ship.

Hiravias needed a rabid hamster spiritshift form.

That half-time show was too bland. There was too much going on, it just felt cluttered and fluffy.The interlude with Timberlake at the piano was the only good part. Less is more -- they should go back to basics and have the artist try to make a connection with the audience.

When you're in combat though, don't those fancy magic visual effects get washed down for visual clarity? I mean, they look really good but I suspect that's probably not how you're going to see them in game most of the time.

Yeah, but the point is you're almost certainly not the pilot of that particular mission. Typically you're a random Joe Shmoe with some skills. Even a Watcher should really just be that: an observer with a unique perspective.

Having your choices significantly influence the outcome of world-shaking events just seems to over-blown to me. You're just a small part of a much bigger picture. Perhaps at most you can change the destiny of a town or city, but that should be about it... unless you're playing a god.
