Update #70: New Year Project Update
Says the person who is a landsknecht! I have a trick I tell my students to use when encountering archaic words in their readings that they think they can never pronounce and hence never remember, which seems like a good strategy for single player gaming environment. When you come across one of these words that blows your mind, just try to say it out loud. You may not even come close to pronouncing it correctly, but that is fine. Once you create an audible version of the word, you will remember the visual markers better. I know it may offend some of our "nerdy" sensibilities to say something incorrectly, but in the long run it will be more enjoyable as you won't be searching for the meaning of the term as much as you will have an easier time remembering it. As an aside, the name of the order of paladins reminds me of the name of a nice French I had the other week. mmmMMmmmmm..... Knights of Camembert...... :D That's why I didn't use Landsknecht as my nick .. ;-)

Update #70: New Year Project Update
Am I the only one who can't cope with words like "Elardh Dwr", "Frermas mes Canc Suolias" or the name of the banshees? I wish I could, but whether my head nor my tongue knows how to handle these. Will there be something like a pronounciation guide in the collectors edition of the game?

Update #47: Odds and Ends
Maybe tone it down to one feather? I'm a fan of silly hats, don't mistake. If they're in I'm giving everyone in my party their own unique silly hat to wear. But there's such a thing as TOO silly. I think the leftmost pushes it a little over that fuzzy line. don't think these hats are silly. actually, they are designed on a historical basis. just google "landsknecht" and there you are. BIG like for the hat plumes! http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-71nroCq-p6M/T5WlxWg_NmI/AAAAAAAALYc/3Ub5lm87GYc/s1600/MB-007.jpg http://www.kriegsreisende.de/neuzeit/neuz-img/landsknechte_3.jpg

I liked Sand from NWN2 as well. his arrogance, his intelligence and his lawfulness ... and of course his neutrality
- Favorite non-combat skills

Armour & weapon designs - a plea (part II).
HumanFlesh+5 replied to Karranthain's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)'Cause they look cool and don't exist in the real world. 1) "cause they look cool" is subjective, many people would dispute this. 2) "don't exist in the real world" - neither do shoulder pads made of living radioactive jelly eels. Are those fun? I think they're quite retarded, as are spikes and massive shoulderpads. Try this for an extraordinary experience - wear massive shoulder pads with 2 foot spikes and lift your arms. We'll all be happier if you do. i really agree with you. but give radioactive-jelly-eel-shoulder pads a try first :D

Two handed swords
What about single weapon fighting style. It kind of was there in BGII but way too weak. i really like one weapon fighting style boni for rogue ... i don't think a dual wielding rogue is that realistic. even though D&D seems to like them.
