Want to shoot your Ex? The NRA has a doll for that..
It would be funny if they did. Come to think of it, wouldn't it be funny of every group had a "cold, dead hands" phrase? On topic: I don't like the NRA, I own guns and would benefit from the insurance benefits that come with a membership, but I have no desire to support any sort of lobbying organization on principle, especially one I disagree heavily with and am sometimes startled by what high-ranking members say. This is refreshing to read. I have a hard time understanding how a story like the 5 year old who shot his 2 year old sister doesn't bring massive condemnation from a group like the NRA. It would seem like the perfect time to step in and say the parents are doing everything wrong and educate people about how to prevent such tragedies in the future. Really the NRA should be distancing itself from things like this bleeding target dummy and .22 rifles marketed for children. Honestly what bothers me the most is that when writing an op-ed that appeared in my local newspaper, Ted Nuget referred to the NRA as the "good guys". Now I don't think that NRA members are bad people, I just think that referring to yourselves as "the good guys" makes it look like you think those who disagree are bad people. I'm not really fond of demonizing groups(except for Russians). That said, the leadership not acknowledging things like you mentioned also rubs me the wrong way.

The new Deadpool series has been pretty damn good.

Eternity Artists: Dragons should not (all) be Dragons any more!
PK htiw klaw eriF replied to Arsene Lupin's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)IMO, this just sounds like some hipster "Western Dragons are too mainstream" thing. I'm all for having more unique creatures, but they should just invent new names for said creatures instead of slapping on "Dragon". And I had to laugh at the "sapient" vs "sentient" comments.

Which IE game do you want Eternity to most "feel" like?
PK htiw klaw eriF replied to Arsene Lupin's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)I want a chimera with the exploration and freedom of BG, the gripping story of PST, and the well-designed encounters of IWD.

Druid Class
PK htiw klaw eriF replied to AndreyPlatonov's topic in Pillars of Eternity: Stories (Spoiler Warning!)So it is somewhat similar to the 3.X feats and alternate rulesets that allow the Druid to take on aspects of animals/nature rather than take the form of a beast or elemental? That sounds really damn cool. Will there also be an elemental spiritshift available at higher levels?

PK htiw klaw eriF replied to Arsene Lupin's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Yes, because then my "evil" PCs would have a valid reason for butchering elves other than they suck.

Well you can run through the older issues if you want. If they have all of Spider-Man 2099 then it is worth the $60.

EA Granted Star Wars License
The dialogue wheel is much more a "BioWare" specific thing than an EA thing. We do it for both of our games because there's a variety of advantages in doing so. There'd be little reason for Obsidian to adopt it, and less of a reason for EA to require it. And who is the most likely candidate to make KOTOR3 now that EA has the license? Hint: You work for them.

Highly unlikely... It is somewhat likely, but rather than the enjoyable RPG that was KOTOR or the masterpiece a completed KOTOR2 would have been, KOTOR3 will be much more actiony, feature the dialogue wheel, and badly implemented multiplayer. Frankly, I'm hoping someone creates an old-school RPG set in an original space-faring setting so I won't care whether Bioware butchers KOTOR3 or not.

PK htiw klaw eriF replied to Arsene Lupin's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)They should have a colossal creature that is a large mass of tentacles that drain life on contact. When said creature kills something, it absorbs the victim's soul into itself.

I keep hearing very good things about Young Avengers, would you recommend it? Is anyone else currently following New Avengers thinking of dropping it?

I agree that Loeb is terrible, but I have to insist that Slott is worse. He brought back a character simply to write them out of character and kill them off within 5 pages. Not to mention the way he writes everybody but SpOck in SSM, it is a wonder humanity manages to successfully feed themselves. And the icing on the cake is having Do**** be morally and mentally superior to Peter Parker because he is an egomaniac super villain who doesn't care about doing the right thing.

When Loeb manages to write a story about the Red Skull taking over Cap's body and having the Red Skull be a better Captain America than Steve Rogers(bonus pints of the reason he is better is because he is a Nazi), then he will sink to Slott's level. Until then, Loeb isn't quite that bad.
