I don't think your fooling anyone He's not. Anything that fluffy and sugary is up to no good. ...says someone with "Rub my belly....you know you want to...give in to the temptation...and don't mind the resulting love scratches and bites." as signature scratches and bites! So... basically like every single cat I've ever lived with.

if they are such a plague on paladins then surely they would become prepared? I hear cat belly rubs are a good antidote for weremarshmallows. We are also already immune.

At least people know what they are getting into with me. I don't hide what I am weremarshmallow.

Yay my title updated!!!!!

But what about my position as the only fluffy thing on the Obsidian Order? Pretty sure you're the only marshmallow, if that's any consolation... I don't think that's going to last... A soon as someone bites Fluffle you'll have another weremarshmallow around... Whoa, after VICTIM bites Fluffle? Reverse weremallowism? That's.... kind of overpowered. Good point. Bring in the hot cocoa!!

No more weremarshmallows. Not enough Hot chocolate.

But what about my position as the only fluffy thing on the Obsidian Order? Kittens are fluffy too. Or do you have something against kittens? Are you a kitten hater?

It can, just don't listen to it.

True. One of the reasons I never really got into modding was that stuff is just so burried that its a wonder how the game made in the first place (and that's just from nested dialog trees).

Now that would be cool. How about doing something "good" and having it result in a minor antagonist spending time making your life miserible. No good deed goes unpunished

You'll want to put your name here too. Things are getting lost on the KS page fast.

Considering that a good portion of Torment you were battling against past lives of yourself and their actions, the argument could be made that you were both the hero and the villian w/ personal reason to hate.

(trying to be destracting) Hey look!! A three-headed monkey!!

Sales are falling!!! Quick release the new rules revision!!!

We could always bring in Bear McCreary. He does a lot of stuff using ethnic instruments (see Battlestar Galactica or Dark Void). Or Greg Edmonson (Firefly and the Uncharted series). Not bashing you Justin but just throwing out folks that have dealt with constraints (no live orchestra) and still provided some great music (IMHO).

Lets face it. Until OE start to actually build the game and start testing it, none of us is going to know how the system really works. I for one will be trolling the Beta test forums.

And thereby still completeing, while unknown to you, the objective. Does it matter what we call it if the experience is the same regardless?

How ironic that you use playstyles as an argument against, when objective based xp allows for the most flexibility in that regard. Leave "dealing with the bandits" as objective. Deal with them how you please (kill/intimidate/enslave/charm/etc). Receive xp. Now the question is how to implement this. Someone find a Developer!!!

I was under the impression that an IE game had a epic plot, great characters, cool art, and tacical battles that call for more than pressing the same button over and over again rather than the internal mechanics of xp gathering. Remember that Bioware created the IE engine and that Black Isle ran with it for IWD 1/2 and PS:T so the underlying kills for xp engine was legacy.

I figured that the OCD croud would still be playing Diablo 3 or WoW when P:E gets released.

The problem is that we don't know how OE is going to implement a quest only XP system. If we have a random encounter is it considered a quest? If so is killing everything and talking your way out of it valid options with both awarding the same amount of XP? OE need to take some time and explain in as much detail as they have in some sort of design document on what their vision is for the XP system and give us some examples of how it will work. We are currently lacking a lot of information.

Interesting idea. The fundamental problem IMO with CRPGs is the inability to do on the fly calculations for XP. PnP games give it at the end of the session and makes modifications based on what happened. Killed the monster: 500xp, talked around it: 500xp, found a away around it then backtracked to kill it: 500zp . In CRPGs its harder to do this and results in giving XP for quests, kills, etc. because you can't determine during programing time what the player will do. Any system that would allow more flexible XP awards would be welcome, I just don't know how easy it would be to implement such a system and/or make it mod friendly.

It the dwarf in a tavern? Then its in a good mood.

I swear that if OE puts in a "You must gather your party before venturing forth" bark, I will go down to Irvine and make them pay. 100s of hours listening to it. P.S. I know it was a Bioware BG/BG2 thing but still...
