I didnt confuse anything? or have I overlooked something? 1. The GM does not have authority over the rules. -I would say the group can modify the rules as long as all the players and the GM agree on the changes. My teacher on the hand says that if you change the rules, you're no longer playing the game the designers built. 2. PCs and NPCs must follow the exact same rules in all circumstances where rolls are required. -The most annoying example of this was whe we played WFRP and our GM kept allowing the enemy to move further in one round than they are allowed. They perform a full action and then still do one half action in the same round. And they all mysteriously had the "lightning parry" feat which allows you to parry even though you did not spend a half action to go to parrying stance, even though their career did not give them that feat.

the adjective "shiny" in pluralis. you britons dont have wicked grammar like that. Kniven

Youll get the soundtrack with the game, all you need to do is to extract them and convert them from Miles SS files to mp3. It might even be so simple so all you need to do is copy the folder. That never stopped the Japanese.

Issue #1 of STar Wars Legacy has been out for a few days now. Im still a bit confused why they chose such a lame design and name for the main villain. Darth Krayt? He named himsef after a big tatooinian lizard? A name thats also pronounced "Darth Crate" and he looks like something the Jim Henson company might have designed for an 80s fantasy movie "

I think its bloody ugly and thats been my opinion since I first saw it. The way Blanka flied through the air while crouching like hes about to take a dump is just mind-boggling and his name isnt a big hit either since theres a swede nursery rhyme that goes "rida, rida ranka. h

The graphics are actually very nice, it does not look 2 year old ingame. But seriously, what other reason could they have for simplifying gameplay other than to compete with action shooters? And if you remove features from a game without adding anything, thats dumbing down.

At Uni I have this teacher who is obsessed about gameplay, and after a year one cant avoid being influenced. A few years ago, I thought it was ok for the GM to bend the rules in favour of his npc's, villains, monsters etc. but now Ive completely changed my mind. The thesis is this: RPG's are games, and in a game it is vital that all involved parties play by the same rules in order for it to be fair and enjoyable. A RPG like D&D 3.5 have rules that are constructed, balanced and meant to be used. The DM is free to cook up whatever story he sees fit, but he CANNOT let an NPC move further thah 5 feet after performing a full-round action, no matter if he is "always right" or not. If I play with a GM that breaks the rules in his favour, I not only feel like im being railroaded, but like Im on a railroad travelling uphill. Whats the point of playing if the GM is just going to do what he wants no matter what I do? Then I might aswell watch a film instead.

Although I have to say that I enjoyed the Fallouts more than PST, but thats just the setting... and SPECIAL Oh, go play some game thats more to your tastes... like Divine Divinity "

I think the thing is that previous Rainbow 6 titles like Ravenshield were developed for the PC and then ported to consoles, whereas Lockdown was designed for consoles from the beginning and thus more action and less planning.

Sweeet! ) Thankyou very much, Mr. Opus!! I have the original 4disc version aswell so there shouldnt be a problem.

My old 6800Ultra broke on me so I had to get a replacement fast. So I got a card that I was sure I could sell later when the Gf8 series come.

Its not that hes offensive... well, the "jay and silent bob" things are offensively bad... but the rest is quite mediocre. Not bad, but nothing that impresses.

Im playing Dreamfall now. Its bloody gorgeous, even on my laptop with an horrific ATI x700 mobile. On my Gf7900GTX it looks better than... most games though it makes no pretense of looking realistic ( see engine http://www.shark3d.com/ ) but im quite worried because it plays way too fast and wastes its assets. You have this beautiful scenery that must have taken the graphics team a long time to do, and you can just rush it through in no time at all because there are only like one or two things to do in each scene. I suppose its the classic "console kids are dumb as hell and have an attention span of around 1.5 seconds so you cant make a real game" speech from MS

Why would they remove it? Just because some heathens decide to make a commercial PnP book, it doesnt mean you cant post homebrew rules on the net does it?

The Ventrue woman has the coolest clothes in the game. The trenchcoat is a tad Matrix but the rest is hawt "

(w00t) LOL <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You just dont like it cause the Succubus wasnt goth "

Im with Baley on this one. I think you have to be american to appreciate Kevin Smith.

You couldnt be a Chav if you tried, Baley. You're just not dumb enough.

Finally I have a word for those people!! :D ( yes, we have plenty of em in sweden aswell )

One dumb thing Ive always wondered.. the picture of TNO on the box, that is a photo of a guy in makeup right? Its not a render? AND does anyne have any PST savegames they could lend me? please?

The only bord whose members are more obsessive about PST would be the Codex. Btw, could anyone send me a savegame from when youre in sigil and are about to go into the players maze? I want to try getting mazed by the Lady of Pain again but I never keep my savegames

my retailers has a C.E box listed for pre-order so the odds are theres going to be one. Now, what would you like to get in said box?

Walnuts! )

Hehe, that's some amazingly offensive shirts. I dig the Ann Coulter one

Yep, its the usual console dumb-down. I think the claimed the real reason was to make it more action-filled but the AI is as moronic as usual and there are no fun gunfights, either you shoot them in the head or they shoot you in the head. What reall annoys you though, is that theyve ****ed up how you shoot. You lean round a corner and double-tap your mouse to take down a baddie but the game lags and only lets you fire a single shot... sometimes it does fire all the shots but in a lagged staccato so you miss what you aim at. It works fine in full auto but being all cool and commando by using single fire is out of the question.
