    How many people actually "hated" on Eternity's health system? A handful? Forum topics tend to attract people who have strong views on the topic. The loudest opinions expressed therein don't necessarily represent the majority view.

    To avoid an atrocity, no Space Pig plushie should go to a home with a dog.

    I think the butcher should sell that cow to science...

    Walkpathing that isn't broken during combat... There's not much worse than giving a character an order during a critical battle then watch them rapidly twitch back and forth because they can't figure out which way to go.

    Too much realism would detract from the enjoyment of the game. Certain game mechanics are clearly abstractions of tedious activities, such as transporting endless piles of loot back to base or healing severe injuries. How would it be fun to actually perform these acts? It's too much like work, and games are leisure time activities.

    Parents will probably dig up this picture when he's a teen just to embarrass the kid...

    It looks like our governments will need to deploy more bollards in vulnerable locations.

    Scientists unveil a giant leap for anti-aging NMN qualifies as a "wonder drug", I'd say.

    I enjoyed the injury system in W2, but I didn't like the long wait for the injuries to time out. For me, injuries add a level of gritty realism to an RPG. If they do implement it for PoE2, I would like to see a capability to remediate certain types of injuries. Like a magical cold pack for an twisted ankle, for example, or a steak for a bruised eye. Maybe a herbalistic approach?

    I think this change is going to further weaken the rogue class, but strengthen the barbarian. Opportunities for the rogue to flank opponents will be significantly reduced because there are now just four other party members available to double-up an opponent. In contrast, the likelihood of party members becoming isolated during combat will greatly increase, and the barbarian is the best class for handling that. I suspect that will mean the classes may need to be rebalanced again.

    Yup. In the end I always just wind up looking at the price of items and choosing the more expensive, unless I particularly like the cheaper item for some reason. That was the great thing about the old HERO/Champions system; you could tell directly how useful and potent a power was based on its point cost.

    Based on the new icons at left, I see the sticker brigade made another pass through the forums. At least that's what I call the folks who go around applying stickers to things where I work.

    ME:A needs a head bag mod. Or even three layered bags. That way we don't objectify the protagonist.

    This kind of makes sense though, doesn't it? Plus it makes the weapon more unique.

    Mmm. Well for me at least, what I do during pauses is the only interesting part of combat. Otherwise I might as well be watching a hockey game.

    Soul bound chain mail bikini armor... collect a full set.

    A possibility that occurred to me is that a combat recording, storing only the actions and probability outcomes, could be useful for debugging and fine tuning of combat. I.e. they can tweak the parameters, rerun the combat record, play it forward for a bit, then take over at a certain stage of the combat.

    For me it was hard to judge when to say goodbye to a soulbound weapon. There were so many fiddly little modifiers that make it difficult to judge their true value. In the end I just shrugged and kept using them.

    US courts have a say in how treaties are applied internally, but I don't know that they have a say on whether the government can exit or not. For example, the US exited the ABM treaty in 2002 with nary a peep from the courts.

    Sleep scumming is a nuisance; I have to thoroughly wash my face in the morning in order to flush out all the little bits stuck to the eye lashes...

    Time limits are the enemy of exploration. It just takes away an important element of the game, as I always feel like I have to blow through the plot without looking around. FO1 felt like that -- I couldn't just go randomly off somewhere, but had to constantly stay on mission. For me that ruined the experience, so I prefer to play it with the mod version that eliminates the time limit. They could add time limits as a game option, with a default of off, but then they would need to include failure consequences.
