Discussion: the PoE beta xp system
I now how it is on a phone man, I'm convinced auto-correct is an evil force out to destroy mankind. I agree with you. If you are not enjoying combat, getting a pat on the back every time you kill isn't going to make it better. I can't wrap my head around playing something you don't enjoy just to get an in-game reward, because I play video games to have fun. *shrugs* As it is, Objective XP is the best system for Obsidian's stated goals for PoE. The arguments have been had, the points have been made, and the Dark Lord of Balance has decided that Objective XP is the way PoE will go.

Wasteland 2 Kickstarted
"I kinda do but they should really raise the % bonus you get per point. It should be pointed outed if you run with 7 rangers and give them 4 points each on the skill that's 28%. You could 70% discount total. I think it should be raised to 5% per point and then they can raise prices so groups who focus on barter would actually beenfit from it. Maybe even get a boost to it by chr/int." No.

At the risk of sounding like a troll....are you guys trolls?
You are now dead to me. DEAD! Nah, I kid. I'm kind of like you on "For The Man Who Has Everything". Both had been hyped to me before I read them; loved WHATEVER HAPPENED TO but wasn't crazy about FOR THE MAN. Well I was supposed to be dead according to a series of articles. I find myself liking stuff that others dislike and vice-versa. I don't like Byrne's FF either, and most other folks seem to hold it in high esteem.

So, when Quinn posts stuff on Twitter about her abuse or Sarkeesian 'quotes' stuff there as well, you're ok with doubting that, correct ? I was told that was a big no no.

They use the easily influenced to spread the misinformation, not all information is false but don't think for a second there isn't an orchestrated campaign to align people to either side. Stop being manipulated No I don't believe Twitter comments, I need real links that I can verify. Have you ever known me to post Twitter links So you aren't convinced Quinn in being harassed. Good to know.

I want to read this book. The text is from the introduction to "Whatever Happened to the Man of Tomorrow?" by Alan Moore from SUPERMAN #423 and ACTION COMICS #583 (both September 1986); it was intended to be the "last" of the "classic" Superman stories as DC was rebooting Superman (by John Byrne). It was the last regular issue drawn by legendary Superman artist Curt Swan, had inks by George Perez and included the last Superman work of long time Lois Lane illustrator Kurt Shaffenberger. And its probably one of the best Superman stories ever written (IMO). Collected as a stand alone trade under the WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THE MAN OF TOMORROW? name; as a Hardback under the same name but with the addition of the other Alan Moore Superman story, "For the Man Who Has Everything"; and as part of the collection DC UNIVERSE: THE STORIES OF ALAN MOORE that includes Moore's work on other DCU titles (like "Mogo Doesn't Socialize" from Green Lantern) I didn't like it that much, to be honest.

The Funny Things Thread
Im not a fan of thin crust (or thick, but its my wifes fav so I lose. ) I like the medium thickness crust like Pizza Hut "pan" pizza. It should work on a hand tossed medium, I just like the crunch from a thin crust. Would reccomend making it at home, but it can be a little difficult.

Discussion: the PoE beta xp system
Are you sure that it did, overall? I, for one, doubt it. Much of the quest XP was given to each character independently of party size, wasn't it? And yet, in my experience, a BG2 party with 3 or 4 members levelled up much faster than a party with 6 members. I've never played BG proper, I've always done the trilogy so perhaps this may be different from someone else's experience. Without factoring in mod added enemies, you gain much more XP per enemy killed in BG2 than BG. The quest XP is a bigger chunk for 6 person parties, but combat will definitely dominate parties of 4 or less. In both games, combat XP will likely be making up the majority of XP. Personally, I like having XP awarded in lump sums for completing objectives because I don't feel like I'm playing the game wrong for trying to find other ways of progressing other than combat. I will concede that it's annoying to scour every corner of a map that holds no remaining interest other than the possibility of a few XP vessels in monster form. I'm not sure how experience division works in PoE, but they could split it among your party to create the same balance of "fewer and higher level" vs. "many and lower level". Each party member in the party cuts into XP by 5% I think. It isn't straight division(before being multiplied by 1.1) like in BG though.

That's cool, options are great. That said, And you'll be progressing mostly in one thing: combat. So..what's the point again? Options.
