  1. ^^^ Choosing an outside publisher allows Obsidian to stay focused on their core business -- developing games.
  2. Presumably the prices will come down at some point, and there are always sales to consider. It may just be a matter of being willing to wait long enough.
  3. Very sad news about Chris Cornell. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2017/05/18/soundgarden-frontman-chris-cornell-dead-at-52/ Fame is overrated -- sounds like he was pretty lonely, even with a wife and kids.
  4. At this point, any updates are going to have release date marketing implications so I'd expect they will be providing notifications from that perspective. If they start showing all the neat new features too far in advance, potential customers may lose interest. I'm expecting then that we'll only get infrequent updates, with more shown closer to the release date. Just a guess.
  5. Here's a fight scene in the sewers with a third combat animation added:
  6. Never heard of them. Guess I'll wait with cautious optimism...
  7. Could be horrible. Or it could be decent.
  8. Battle formations would have to be a thing first in order for that to work. As it is, they mostly fall apart on contact with the enemy. Yes, in the shifting tides of battle, lines change and reform. But fighters should benefit from conditions that don't especially favor the barbarian, if only to distinguish the two. Veteran fighters should benefit from fighting as a team... barbarians not so much. If you form a line with a fighter, you should be better off.
  9. I think that trained fighters should really benefit from being in a fighting formation. Their abilities should benefit those arrayed in the same formation. They gain this somewhat with the Guardian ability, but more could be done.
  10. Kid's going places. Not anywhere interesting, just places.
  11. I'm a fan of McCain. If he hadn't chosen Palin, who turned out to be more of a reality TV star than a politician, for VP I likely would have voted for him. Of course, those were the days when I liked both presidential candidates. Memories! I too was a McCain supporter, even though he kind of sold his soul to run for President. I still have much respect for him (and for Obama).
  12. If Donald Trump were just an ordinary government official undergoing security clearance, do you think he would receive it at this point? I have to think the answer would be "Hell no!".
  13. ^ There needs to be an option for non-combat resolution. Like a dance off.
  14. For less important dialogue entries, they could always turn to the Tim Allen school of grunting communication.
  15. Future engineer...
  16. DM mode: like four butterflies, our heroes emerge from a mysterious chrysalis state some time after being summoned to the site against their will. They find themselves in excellent health, but oddly enfeebled as if completely drained of power and experience.
  17. Not sure about the timing of when the Windows fix for this became available, but remember when people were turning off Windows Update in 2015 to avoid the automatic download of Win10? I wonder how many of those folks have now been hit by this cyberattack?
