  1. #2 seems like it would be the cheaper shipping option so I voted for that. Otherwise I'm not particular. Thanks.
  2. A few people get tinnitus pretty bad though, and it can impact the quality of their life. Personally I get vertigo from time to time, which can significantly limit my activity. You don't really get used to it; just learn to tolerate it.
  3. Yes, I was wondering that as well. It'd be a nice project for a team of artistic contributors.
  4. Hairbrained also benefits from having an established reputation by completing their first KS and publishing a follow-on. They have an established market, whereas OtherSide is new to the KS game.
  5. Well it's good, but... I've learned to wait for a few patch updates so that I get a more enjoyable gaming experience. So perhaps by the end of the year it'll be ready.
  6. I suspect that graphics junkies would be a more accurate analogy.
  7. These types issues are why I'd like to see a different game mechanic for purchasing the more powerful loot. For example, a private magic item auction held in a well-to-do quarter with some interesting bidders. First you have to earn your way in, and then you're not always guaranteed to get an item you really want. Perhaps you need to look at the list of items to be auctioned that day, converse with the bidders to see where their interests lie and estimate their probable wealth, use your lore skill to estimate the item values, then place your secret bids on one or more of the different items.
  8. Perhaps. But my posting yielded a more positive discussion, so I have no qualms.
  9. I suspect you're probably right. Has anybody successfully completed and released a Kickstarted FPS game?
  10. How about: give AV a higher deflection vs. ranged (+30?) and lower vs melee (+10?) scale down the AV deflection by the armor recovery speed Probably getting too complicated at this point.
  11. It sounds like you were mislead my the thread title and so I forgive you. Take care.
  12. Ah, we have a special guest from Trollsylvania.
  13. Considering that they are still balancing the beta builds, I'm not sure this concern will survive the final release.
  14. If nothing else, I have to say that the in-game characters in PoE look vastly better than in the IE games.
  15. Eat sheep and dye [wool], the grumpy Shephard's handbook.
  16. Well it's not exactly for a game, but this Kickstarter might be of interest to sci-fi fans: Save the Sci-Fi: The Next Generation Their goal is to track down out of circulation sci-fi books, clear the copyright, then scan them and make them available as an e-book. They try to do one book per month, and have restored 36 books thus far.
  17. Fair enough. But it's a two per rest, short duration spell that against any decent enemy that has a negligible effect. If you already wear heavy armor and cast AV, things look different though. You might even boost your deflection to untouchable levels. It's I think already a problem, that there are builds with so high deflection that they almost never get hit by certain enemies. To make AV halfway balanced, it should give diminishing returns I think. That is, if your deflection is very low, it should boost it considerably by perhaps 50 points, and if your deflection is high-end, it should only get boosted by perhaps 15 points or so. They could penalize the AV using the recovery speed of the armor worn and explain it away as some sort of interference effect.
  18. All arguments for point-based builds mixed with career starter packages, I'd say.
  19. Yes, I've enjoyed 12 Monkeys to this point. The last episode (when the lab gets attacked by raiders) was the best thus far. I've tried several times, but I just can't seem to stay interested in Helix.
  20. That looks like a 25% deflection improvement; in D&D terms it's equivalent to a +5 AC boost, or better than the +4 you get with the mage armor spell.
  21. n/m
  22. Are you suggesting that this is an EA project? If not, then your opinion doesn't seem relevant.
