Who needs maps and hexes for pen and paper games?

Trying to enter the Larian Vault now that backers can (theoretically) manage their pledge. Must be a lot of traffic, because I'm going nowhere

I agree with Drowsy. After all, if we wanted to kill real creatures for XP, we'd stay in the tutorial basement and kill rats!

Why are you taking Leisure Suit Larry Reloaded to court? It is innocent.

Me. Dark Sun is one of the most boring and dull setting like...ever. I thought that was Greyhawk... or Forgotten Realms... or was it Mystara... or any other generic fantasy setting.

Not a lot. With the thumb on the inside it moves slightly to the outside. But right now I am still suffering from overexertion at the gym so moving anything is a chore.

I didnt get past the starting island in Two Worlds 2. I just couldn't bear staring at the main character any longer. Something felt off about him.

It helped that it was one of the more interesting campaign settings. It actually gave writers somethign to work with.

The only problem with loot I am having, is that as a Seraphim there is too much variety in looks between different pieces, so that sometimes I look as if my character dressed in the dark while stumbling through dimensional gates.

At least with Sacred you remember the name of the game Not sure what that says about Kingdoms of Amalur Seriously though, the story of Sacred and Sacred 2 is so weak, there is nothing to feel invested in.

Sacred 2 Gold runs fine. There are the odd broken side quests. But with so many of them, it hardly matters. I played a bit today. My seraphim is lvl 33 and I am thinking of finally going and finishing this act I am in (I think act 6).

I think with NKKK's posts you need a disclaimer for the times when he isn't

Aussie government should spend less time protecting their people from games and more time implementing anti-dropbear measures. Dropbear attacks are steadily rising, if they don't do something fast, there'll be a full blown dropbear apocalypse. Or so I hear

And the goblins were priceless with their battlecry of "Schnell, hackt ihm den Kopf ab, ich brauch einen neuen Aschenbecher!" which translates to "Quick, cut off his head, I need a new ashtray!" (goblins would speak german even in the english version)

Sacred 1 had loads of good ideas and hardly any of them worked. With Sacred 2 they tried to fix that and create a game that had options that were meaningfull and weren't just there to give the impression of choice and a chance for players to waste skill points. I can't remember the level of my Vampiress... hundretsomething I think. The theoretically big thing of changing shape based on daytime was made mood though, since she had such a high life drain on each hit, that she could stay in her vampire form, even during the day without any side-effect, as long as there were enemies to fight. Probably the only character to whom not fighting was potentially the deadliest thing in the game. Sacred 2 was far from a Diablo clone. No more than Sacred 1 anyway. What it was, was an attempt to take the ideas of the original Sacred and remould them into something that works.

Your honour, I am innocent! All I wanted to do was have something interesting to post in the "What you did today" thread!

That's my train of thought. Though it hasn't been healthy for my sex life. Maybe I should just change my taste in wimin though Still, you sound a bit like Yoda. Drunken escaped and regrets, to the dark side lead they.

Yeah. My cat would probably say "Franchise? Who needs a franchise? We have a couch in the living room, chilling out on that is far more awesome than any franchise."

Sacred 2 changed quite a few things from the original game. And while I loved the original, I found myself suprisingly fine with all the changes. The story is pretty forgetable, but that is also partly because the game world is so vast, you forget there is a story at all.

Tempted to buy the franchise?

Guess better a green shirt than a red shirt?

Working on concept sketches for teddy bear pirates.

I try to pretend that it's the Math Gran Prix that drives the price up in that bundle

Some of the character quotes in that game are priceless as well. "And all that without using Linux" being a great one form the Temple Guardian. Though the best must be the seraphim pondering about deleting her inventory if you are afk for too long..

Went to the gym. Decided to try out their 30 minute power abs group thingie. Was a bit strange being the only man among eight or so rather young women I do wonder though how showing up at the gym in a tennis skirt seemed like a good idea to one of them.
