I dunno, man. Can you imagine taking that face to dinner? I'm having fight down the urge to leap nervously away from the keyboard just meeting her stare. Don't get me wrong. I'm as prone to falling for ice queens as the next man. But I'm damned if I'll do it in my imagination. I've always enjoyed intense women. Then again, I do enjoy most women.

They could axe save imports if they stopped doing cameos entirely.Is there really any reason why Isabella, Merril, and Anders all have to show up in Fereldan, Kirkwall, and Orlais at the precise time that things are going on in these nations? Unless these characters all turn out to be demi-gods that exist everywhen and everywhere, it's a little silly. The world can not possibly be so small that if they feel the need to have an abomination, Dalish Keeper, and sexy pirate, there's no one else.I simply can't comprehend the argument that these characters have to be brought back to decrease complexity. It's like Vivec showing up in Cyrodiil.I said it before and I fear saying it again. At this rate and unless they start killing everyone in Inquisition, Dragon Age 4's cast will consist of Magister Anders, Wynne and her female dwarf friend, a mabari, Velanna, and Oghren. You'll run into the Dalish elves you recruited from DAO who have taken Merril in.The only new members will be Duncan's long lost twin brother and the son of Ser Jory.With a few exceptions(if a character is part of an organization fighting on the war, like Templars, I could see them popping up) I agree. There isn't a reason Zevran should show up in DA2 to slaughter some thugs that couldn't have applied to a new character. That makes sense. I'd say Mage Hawke was a given(and a Mage siding with Crazy Templars is stupid) the Dalish Warden wouldn't be as tied to the events as other origins, and not having to account for knocking Morrigan up would save a lot of time.

Try something that isn't likely to fail. And souflee? Ewwwwwwwww.

If by the time the party is able to complete the dungeon, they are close to the level cap, then no, it won't break the game. I don't think Obsidian is going to **** up badly enough so that a low-level party will be able to run through a mega dungeon.

You know, I actually agree that establishing a canon is a good idea, and would take it further and completely axe save imports. But blaming things on people who don't like teh gheys is petty. I'm going to have to remove your "Bioware True Fan Title". I also agree, drab sort of fit the mood, while DA2's art style made me want to destroy anime.

To be honest, other than the backgrounds the less taken from Arcanum the better.

The closest thing I've done to cheese is actually outright cheating. In BGT, I would use SK or L1NPCs to give multi-classed characters kits or let a dual-class character dual-class from a vanilla class to a kit. IMO, every character should have access to a kit if they wanted, so I was just fixing what I saw as a stupid ass rule. I'm not fond of exploits like the PnP "Nasty Gentleman", because I find them "unfun". I like fair challenge, and exploiting dumb AI or loopholes in the rules takes away both fair and challenge for me.

Play NWN2 SoZ. Obsidian did it there.

Happy birthday JFSOCC! Today I worked and wasted several hours on the Internet.

Level design is my primary concern. Thought the combat in DA:O was decent, the characters were solid. But the areas were pretty limited, always pushing you forward in a predetermined path. I would say that the gameplay in every Bioware game has suffered from poor level and encounter design, especially Baldur's Gate IMO. Also, will Warriors actually be able to equip ranged weapons in this game? One of the things I hated the most about DA2 was how class-restricted equipment was. Also, the Arcane Warrior should be improved and make a comeback, nothing says awesome quite like slicing through foes while hurling spells.

Absolutely. The way VA benefits have been handled is shameful.

I'm fine with that. I also have to agree with Wals on closely monitoring combat veterans, simply because they seem to be more likely to have PTSD which does make people behave erratically.

It might be an art direction thing. If I remember correctly, dreadlocks were all the rage in BG2, most characters besides Minsc having them (never checked Boo's hairstyle though). Boo was the original Rasta Rodent.

D&D 3.X and PF already did that with Power Attack and Combat Expertise. PE could and should do something similar, because feats were a huge step forward for D&D. Also, I thought attributes in 3.X/PF were handled much better than in previous editions, because you screwed yourself mechanically if you used any attribute other than CHR as a dump stat, and the DM would likely have almost every NPC be hostile to you if you used CHR as a dump stat.

If you have any boxes from when video games were still physical, stuff it in there.

I'm going to watch Breaking Bad and Archer on Netflix. Both shows are golden.

I can handle sparkling if it comes from them bursting into flames. Also, could someone post some redheads?

Insanity? Anyways a bit late, but I'd tell your nephew to think very carefully about his choice GD. I decided not to go myself, but then I have a very good job for my age(21) and am managing my accounts and investments well enough so when I transfer from UH to UT, I will have plenty of funds available for my expenses and avoid taking loans. If I had gone to NYU with the scholarship available to me, I would be almost $100,000 in debt right now.

Is it just me or does every politician from Massachusetts flip-flop out the ass.

Today I have the day off, so I intend to hang out and drink. Happy b-day Malc, enjoy the creeping entropy.

I was expecting something a bit more sexy.

Seeing as Alex Jones is still alive and doing his media stuff, I don't think we have to fear a massive government that can crush any and all opposition effortlessly yet. *joins in* What would you suggest instead? Privatization.

Everyone does the Iron Bull.

Trying to finish NWN2 OC, but goddamn those trash mobs are awful.

Very true. Closing down Gitmo would require majority support in the HoR(very unlikely) and 60+ votes in the Senate(also unlikely). Of course it could probably be done if it was tied to a repeal of a certain Act, but I think it is highly unlikely that would be spared a veto.
