You are controlling Little Mac, not role-playing him. Controlling =/= Role-Playing. When someone pilots a drone aircraft, they aren't role-playing a plane, they're controlling a plane. *sigh* role-play·ing n. An instance or situation in which one deliberately acts out or assumes a particular character or role. You don't do that in Mario, you hit buttons so the figure on the monitor or screen hits things with a hammer or jumps. A ROLE-PLAYING GAME is only required to have ROLE-PLAYING, hence the name. They aren't called "Stat-managing with leveling up games".

Leveling up doesn't make a game a Role-Playing Game. Career mode in NBA 2K13 is a Role-Playing Game. Because you Role-Play a character.

Wrong. Punch-Out is about using a combination of jabs, body blows, and uppercuts to knock out a series of opponents, not about role-playing a character how the player sees fit. The only thing a Role-Playing Game must have is Role-Playing. Everything else is secondary.

Consider expansions included. 1. Neverwinter Nights 2 2. Planescape: Torment 3. Baldur's Gate 4. Baldur's Gate 2 5. Fire Emblem: Sealed Sword 6. Fallout New Vegas 7. Fallout 2 8. Morrowind 9. Final Fantasy V 10. KOTOR 2 I originally read this as "How I despise emotions", which I think is essential to being English. I've never understood that myself. Arcanum is a cluster**** of gamebreaking bugs and extreme unbalance, and is among the worst gaming expierences I've had. Not anymore.

If you haven't had one of those moments playing PnP(complete with shouts of "let me do the math" to see of you can weasel out of it), then I pity you.

I'm certainly certain that the danger of certainty is somewhat uncertain.

I would love to see Taskmaster pop up somewhere. Could work as a rogue SHIELD agent. I don't know if this will work well, IMO Preacher would work better on a premium network so they could get away with more stuff.

Level cap and pacing
PK htiw klaw eriF replied to Shadowmant's topic in Pillars of Eternity: Stories (Spoiler Warning!)
IMO hitting the level cap, hard or soft, should require doing a fair bit of optional stuff and a good portion of the main questline. Reaching the cap doing only main quest stuff should be impossible. -
I think there should be a golden platemail codpiece. It devastates foes with bolts of pure sexy.

I will now attempt to drink things while moving at various speeds. -

My insurance almost didn't cover the damage from the hit and run on my car. Apparently repairs were less than $100 away from total loss.

Does that mean I can start complaining that (insert preferred group here) took our identity? I probably paid more sales tax than income tax, but I'm a student who works part time. Been working out daily, trying to lose about 15 pounds this month.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! That game was hilarious. I just won $50.

I just found out about that five minutes ago. That really sucks.

playing "evil"
PK htiw klaw eriF replied to Michael_Galt's topic in Pillars of Eternity: Stories (Spoiler Warning!)
I like complicated characters myself. If I may rant for a bit, I think Baldur's Gate 2 made both consistently role-playing a selfish villain and a semi-virtuous hero impossible. Why? Because of 1) rescuing Imoen and 2) Having to side with either the Shadow Thieves or Bodhi's vampires. An evil character might not give a **** about Imoen, but is required to save her? What reason would someone concerned only with themselves spend a considerable amount of time and effort to rescue a childish reprobate who would likely interfere with any grand schemes they might have? How the hell does that make any sense at all? Why the hell would a Paladin or any other virtuous character aid either the Shadow Thieves or Vampires? They're very EVIL. One group is a criminal organization that assassinates regularly and the other are composed of blood-sucking fiends. A Paladin would smite them, not assist them. PE should take a lesson and not shoe-horn characters into a certain path/motivation because of plot. Don't include any mandatory quests that would conflict with a PC's values. -
I haven't had a drink in over a month. I should remedy that soon. I'm a bit disappointed that the Darth Sideious robe isn't an every day occurrence.

Wals, how do you find such horrific news stories? Is there a special search engine?
