Today I keep hoping that a) the deviantHEART dating thing at deviantART is an April Fool's joke and that b) the April Fool's on GoG isn't an April Fool's :/

Goblins can be awesome like that. Never underestimate the cannonfodder Had a goblin pull off something similar in WHFRP. PCs started looting corpses without checking if there are no more enemies. Goblin steps out behind the door and stabs the fighter: As it's a backstab it ignores armor. Roll for damage: 6 (ona roll of 6 in WHFRP you roll another attack and if that hits roll for damage again. Every 6 after that you roll for aditional damage). Rolled another five 6s and finally a 5. checked the crit table, the goblin had driven his short sword up between the fighter's legs and into his groin: nearly instant death as the blood comes gushing out.

I guess the main difference is that SR3 takes ridiculousness to the border of tastelessness, blows up said border with an exploding mascot and then bashes tastelessness over the head with a purple sex-toy.

Seems to be more of a Minecrafty thing.

You must have left a few uninhabited systems near your empire? Uninhabited star systems have a chance to spawn pirate fleets of a strength reative to the adjacent empire's. Colonize everything near you and you'll be fine

Hmm best DLC for me so far has been Missing Link for Deus Ex. Haven't tried any FNV DLC yet...

I can't remember anything specific happening to Meandor. He was in some wierd state of undeath in AoW2:TWT. He seemed to have returned to lfe in SM. But I'll finish my playthrough of the series before 3 is released anyway to have it all fresh

If the reason to back the project is the hope for the kind of writing one enjoys, then the team having writers one doesn't enjoy is, in my opinion, the best reason not to back it. After all, I have yet to meet a person who believes Planescape Torment was the most awesome game ever gameplay wise and needs a spiritual successor on those grounds. The word "doom" was of your choosing by the way. The question is whether we believe it is a project we personaly will enjoy - though maybe for you it's more a question of whether everyone else on the internet will share your taste In general I feel Black Library has been loosing quality as a whole. And in my opinion the Slayer novels should never have gone past the original short stories that fit the characters - Games Workshop chose to milk the franchise for cash and Mr. Long is the person they paid to do so - a dirty job but someone has to do it, I'm sure. Still, I for one felt that there was a distinct drop in quality between the last Slayer novel written by King and the first written by Long. Though my opinion is admittedly biased, as I am a fan of the old games workshop writers from the early days.

Is that the Black Library / Games Workshop "author" who's one novel I tortured myself with I threw in the recycling bin? Then it's part of the reason I am very reluctant with pledging myself. Going to read through all the updates carefully and possibly pledge a few minutes before the end of the campaign.

There was no hand holding in Planescape Torment. Even the times when you assisted/guided npcs on their personal journey to less-brokeness, it was very much optional, far from having a whining Alistair forced onto you and took more the form of discovering a neat new facet.

Finished King of Dragon Pass.

Let's hope its not such a disappointment as The Cave.

And you, Earth-raithe remember not to confront Planet as an enemy, but rather welcome its mysteries as gifts to be cherrished.

I wanted to post that link Link-thief!

They always do that for every big game and I hate it as well Should be a bannable offence *grumble grumble* That said, this post is titled: "LEIA IS CHEWBACCA'S FATHER!!!"

Ask not what you have done today. Ask what you will do today. So I will go forth and clean the litter box.

Don't know. It's sounding less interesting to me with people finishing it too fast

They are nothing close to Master of Orion or Space Empires. I had fun with Starcraft 2. But I prefer Dawn of War (1) when it comes to RTS games.

Streak, thats the word I was looking for!

Ah so the SSRMs aren't actually used?

I'm a bit confused. People keep talking about SSRMs and then talk about long range. aren't SSRMs Swarm Short Range Missiles? So shouldn't you be using SLRMs?

For me it wasn't "getting tired of it" that was the problem. My problem was "being tired" and the game just was too demanding of my brain cells - trying to predict my opponent's moves and set up my orders accordingly.

Wait, wait, wait. Escort missions that don't suck? That's practically unheard of. Are you sure you're feeling alright? I take it you haven't played Frozen Synapse then, Key?
