Has oby broken down and started posting selfies?

Probably.

Sorry, but that isn't true. Combat in the IWD series was absolutely fantastic. It was. Using totebags in Sigil was pretty lame. It was a horrible game. It had good NPC interaction and told a good story, but the actual gameplay was awful.

Grognards should be a monster in PoE so Sawyer can do an update about dealing with them.

Looks like I'm going to replay IWD2 soon. Holy Avengers are just too awesome. And Totment was a horrible game. Having a good story isn't good enough if combat is that awful.

Hey Woldan, if you do that, pour lemon juice on the bodies and bury them in a remote location. Helps them decompose more rapidly. Today I'm going to be in classes until 430pm. Hopefully going out with a few friends tonight.

Did IWD2 have a holy sword in it? I recall Carsomyr, Purifier, Foebane, and Pale Justice well but don't recall any analogue in IWD2.

I'm going to agree with Volo here.

My head is mashing Mass Effect and Xcom Enemy Unknown together, and I want it. I do too. Implementing isometric turn-based would make squad-based combat pretty damn fun, IMO.

I think Obsidian's next kickstarter will more than likely be in a different genre than PoE, but I think a Sci-Fi combat heavy tactical RPG would be pretty fun.

You are.

IMO, a seperate campaign is optimal because they wouldn't have to worry about narrative conflicts or balancing new items and higher levels in the OC.

I'll agree with that, and will argue that it is the best anti-mage weapon in the game, but I still find that it could be easily improved. As to NPCs, I think the "alignment corrections" component of the BG2fixpack does solve most of those issues, but I think having Carsomyr(and Purifier) gain the extra damage against all Evil targets would be optimal.

Well, I could take you to a couple of places where you would find that opinion pretty common...

Well it is a blasphemous opinion certainly. My problems with Carsomyr is that it (1)only gets a damage bonus against Chaotic Evil opponents when it should be getting it against all Evil foes, (2)isn't very utilitarian as most of it's abilities focus on spellcasters, and (3)like all two-handers, it is beat out by dual-wielding when not using GWW.

Had a very long Saturday night. Drank a lot of vodka and woke up in a place I didn't recognize while Pulp Fiction was playing while a cat staring at me.

Paladins>Magus(Fighter/Mage)>all other classes Shields are very underpowered in most games Dual-wielding is almost always OP'd, but isn't as cool as Two-Handed or Sword'n'Board In BG2, Carsomyr and Purifier were underpowered

In all honesty, I would prefer for them to assume a canon for the background story and just focus on making each individual game have the most reaction to PC actions, rather than worrying if a Warden dp'ed the slutty pirate and the bard chick with the horny elf dude or whether Hawke helped butch guard shag up her underling.

So is this thread going to get a facelift everytime it gets restarted?

I didn't know women with coke habits were that common there.

Hello chap, how's the weather? Now, let me introduce myself: I'm an emeny of man. You too? Sure are a lot of us these days. I don't suppose you happen to have wealth and taste?

In the frame shown, you look like you're about to piss yourself.

I find taking an occasional intellectual **** is good for the soul. I actually wrote that post as an addendum to yours - in support - not as any sort of retort. I (basically) agree with all of your statements...at least on this issue. "Opinion" news shows I, too, find incredibly unappealing. As if I needed any additional bias in my life by filtering it through more people who clearly have agendas, whether I am for them or not. I've pretty much given up on all TV news, except perhaps local news in very small doses. I like Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert in small doses, too, - primarily because they actually are pretty funny - but find that I can't really stomach watching them much, either. TV really just isn't my thing these days. @Valsuelm: No, I disagree. A person intrinsically, for no "absolute" - absolute in the sense of being completely reinforced by something else - decides that some things are right, and that some things are wrong. As an example, most people believe that murder is "wrong" - not all, but most. Why? Such a concept, the innate wrongness of killing, does not exist anywhere else in the animal kingdom, (not that its existence elsewhere would justify it, mind you). Yet most of us have decided that it is indeed wrong - evil, even. It is a fiction - a social construct - that we have completely made up, and one that most of us choose to follow. Any rationalization you could use to explain our belief in its "wrongness" is similarly unabsolute - such lines of thought are (at least to my knowledge) completely circular and recursive. What's even worse, I think, is that though most of us believe killing is wrong, many of us also believe that certain conditions can make it unwrong, whether intellectually (really thinking it's no longer wrong) or in actuality (still thinking it's wrong, but assigning no blame/consequences for it). Apply this principal to less extreme examples, where more people disagree with each other - abortion, as an amusing (to me, as it's still to do with "killing") example - and you find that such biases paint the lives of every single person. There's no [human] logical root to why we believe what we do, or value what we do, yet such beliefs and values still persist. Not that I think that's necessarily a bad thing. Humans would be very boring otherwise, I think. I think the only type of person that is intellectually unbiased is the person that completely lacks any sort of intellect - sapience - to begin with. And even then, only intellectually. There'd still be behavioral - as in, what we actually do - biases. Dang. I did it again. Oh, I got that you agreed with me there, I just like hearing myself talk. Consider my post am addendum to your addendum.

You're too kind... make it a gallon. You'll have to wait a few weeks, I'm running low on War and the supply of Famine I have isn't up to par.
