  1. What about going for beholders under anthakla? I think we should get more XPs before going against thiefs but its up to you, good that we are still rolling
  2. wait.. you want to tell me that these monstrously overgrown anime mamalities arent real?
  3. I am for equal rights for everyone BUT if 90% of backers are man (my guess) , I dont see why 50% of game should be focused around what womens (and White Knights) want. But I am ok if there will be no boobs around, we still have internets for porn right? little offtopic I laughted my ass of when EU decide that there will be norm that 50% of manager positions in companies have to be womens. Can you imagine it? That you as guy work your ass off for many years to gain your position and then some idiot in parlament decide that you have to ocupy positions in company by incopetent workers just because some feminist **** cant find job (probably because she can only talk trash and become politic) Sorry for my rubish english
  4. Thanks exo, I will keep it in mind, but right now I am going through SoZ so it will take time when I will return to OC or MoTB progress update - I got few levels and complete all goblin quests.So far most ass kicking is my fighterm but what troubles me that he got hit a lot even with AC25. I skipped Favoured soul as I was not sure if I need cha or wis and take druid instead. My mage is pretty decent as well, I am now thinking if go for red wizard or candlkeep guy. Also any hints how to progress ranger/rouge? its now 3/3 and seems decent I give him archery style. Thanks for all tips guys
  5. I am on your side but on these forums you will only find that people here thinks practical > sexy
  6. While I like BG feel from concept what I dont like is how 'magic power' starting to be represented by purple/pink color. I hated it on D3 and I hate in in every game which does it. I know magic missile was pink in BG as well but I think in these days everything except elemental magic is 'Arcane pink'. It looks like some source of energy, why its not blue/white electric? yellow/white source of power like heat? black hole? I notice it on mage artwork with snakes - purple. Why?. I dont mind it for some spells but I cant play caster which every second spell is purple (looking at you GW2) I may be alone in this, but I still have to get it out On other note good job Obs, doing fantastic work, hope we will see few seconds from gameplay soon. peace
  7. OK can you guys suggest how can I improve my party for SoZ or on what feats focus? 1. Human/wood elf ranger/rouge - party overland map leader 2. Air Genasi favoured soul/stormlord - party divine caster/fighter 3. Human mage/Sorcerrer? - I dont know about this but I would like to have party spokemen and main mage in one person? any suggestion on prestige classes? 4. Earth Genasi Fighter/barbarian? - any good tips on solid tank build for my party? I know that Dwarven defender is probably best but I dont like dwarfs
  8. Hello everyone, So i got hunger for some rpg when waiting for P:E. And then I realise I actualy never complete any campaign in NWN 2. And before I start I would like to hear some suggestion on how to play it. Are there some good mods which are not overpowered? For example ranger is my favorite class but he quite suck in original NWN2 as far as I remember (but i didnt complete game because some bug). Also what party you recommend for SoZ? I remember that I die quite quickly in SoZ. Any tips or hints are welcome. peace Dude
  9. I try to replay it recently but got 100% crash in final moat house fight. I was pretty **** and stop playing it. But combat is really fun in this game
  10. I am little tired of all these whimpers. I see 2 groups of people when it comes down to monk 1. European Monk lovers Old hermit 2. Asian Monk Lovers kung-fu master So lets look if wiki can enlighten us: The term monk is generic and in some religious or philosophical traditions it therefore may be considered interchangeable with other terms such as ascetic. However, being generic, it is not interchangeable with terms that denote particular kinds of monk, such as friar, cenobite, hermit, anchorite, hesychast, solitary Basic concept is easy - Do something (mostly sacrificing) in your life to get to heaven, find Nirvana, rebirth.. whatever. European monks try find salvation and heaven through rejecting spoils of mortal world and enduring pain and poor life, Eastern monks through physical and psychical training. European monks were praying, eastern monks were meditating. Both lived in monastery. So if you look on it they are completely same. Imagine mage who like summoning spells and other who practise more offensives spell school.They are still both mage. IF European monk live in Asia he can learn kung-fu and if Asian monk live in Europe he can learn religious teaching. Still they are monks because what makes monk monk is that he devote his life to some greater goal (religious or philosophical) I think that Wound( enduring pain) class ability capturing it nicely for both groups, they just dont understand it. Where I see what European Monk lovers miss is that Wound should feed both physical and psychical (spell casting) feats Peace Dude
  11. Hejkal (Howler) Hejkal is almost 2 meters tall furry humanoid living in forested areas on trees like monkey. By looks he is cross between human and gorilla with long fur. During day he is quite shy creature running away on sight. At night these creatures are drawn closer to civilization enjoying their wicked fun. They close to roads or pathways waiting for any foolish person wandering at nights. When they see their prey they start howling and barking high in trees and insisting fear into poor souls heart. Mostly person starts to run away, exhausting himself and often get lost in forest. Once prey is weak enough, Hejkal swoop from hight of trees jumping on his prey and mostly killing it instantly. On ground, Hejkal is bit clumsy so if person survive first brutal strike they have chance to run away or try to fight Hejkal. Hejkal is mostly solitary creature attacking only lone persons but there are records of bands of these creatures terrorizing far-off villages cutting contact with rest of country as noone was able to get out if travel takes longer than day. Atributes: Strong, Slow movement, Fast attacks, Low health Abilities: Howl - Fear person Leaping strike - Jump from trees on pray dealing heavy damage, knocking it on ground
  12. Nonsense, even in Czech (almost polish) we have word for ranger aka woodprotector - Hajny. Its the guy who keep forest (roads) save for travelers and keep eye on animals in his territory so there is plenty if some local Lord want to go hunting. I dont see problem with Ranger name at all. Now lets talk about that Aragorn thing: Yes he doesnt have 2 weapons - it doens't mean that no other ranger cant specialise in this type of fighting If I recall correctly he got great knoweladge about forest fauna and flora ( he saved that small hobbit with some leaves) He knows how to camp in wilderness to not attract too much attention He can fast travel through forest because he knows them well Even if I dont recall him using bow, it doenst mean that he cant Now about hunter its guy who goes to forest to hunt down animals for profit/sport/food he use bow and lay traps thats it So even that ranger can be hunter doesnt mean that all hunters are rangers, anyone who can shoot bow on animal is considered hunter. With this attidue we would not have mages but cooks or schoolars because well they read books or cook strange things aka potions/regents/whatever Now Classes vs Tolkien If we keep that anatology that D&D took classes from there then we would have: Aragorn - Ranger/Fighter Gandlaf - mage everyone else - very bad to good fighter So I dont think that classes are so heavily influenced by it. Standard classes are bards, priest/cleric, druids, thiefs. and some new ones like barbarians, monks etc..... to sum it up: Leave RANGER be and go hunting yourself
  13. Sure, they will not be filthy rich and yes steam ofcourse take some percentage for sales but I want to point out that even with 100K sold copies there is still a profit. But I think that all cash from kickstarter goes to development. They would create that game even if we put only 1M into it. Where do you think all those money goes? (yeah I know even kickstarter take some percentage from it)
  14. Well if they complete P:E in time they are on 0 profit (but we keep their families feed up for year and half) and anything they sell afterward is just pure profit. No middleman helps quite a lot. If they manage to get it on steam then I am quite sure they can make some nice profit from it. Even 100K sold copies is quite nice buck if you dont have producer who would eat it all for marketing bullsh*ts 100K*40= 4M - more than we fund on kickstarter and I think its not too fantastic number of sold copies - I would be quite happy if I have 200% refund of invested money There are studios with producers who sells milions of copies and still cry that its not enough (well keeping marketing and DVD production guys alive actually cost a lot when I look on it)
  15. Well I cant argue if you put EA - Singleplayer game with online requirement vs Valve multiplayer game with online requirement. We can at least agree that we disagree . The biggest difference is that I think that Simcity is SP game with some Social MP which is not essential for game itself and you opinion is that it is MP only game (even MMO maybe if you compare it to WoW?).
  16. Good for you guys, few more projects like P:E and you will be disgustingly rich. Also love your UO avatar.
  17. Well its MP game without single player so I can see why you have to. I dont whine that GW2 are not playable offline as well. But are you sure? I recall playing it on some lanparty without internet access... Counter-strike as well and they are similiar as far as I recall...
  18. Can you please specify which steam game require to be online to play? Also, Simcity never was designed as multiplayer game(well all before the last one). Last one have only some minor social features and as some already show doesnt need to be online to play offline if they wish. But still its their product and who dont like it dont have to buy it (like myself). Then they should not be shocked when their selling numbers will drop down more...
  19. I hear you, but they mention in last update that there will be another part of his playthourgh in next one (read this), not that I want to rush anything or so...
  20. Well I still dont know what was so bad about Datadisks. I mean I was completely fine with Lord of destruction Datadisk for D2. It got new Act, 2 new classes and tons of new items/game mechanics. And I just paid once for it. I mean I know why its important for developers to gain more cash for next project so they work on their old one (no need for new engine, mostly content related) and gain more cash for next project. EA doesnt care about funding next project, its all about money making. It will never expand IP (intentionaly) or bring anything valuable for its price. I mean I am ok buying game and know that there will maybe be datadisk. But buying game and knowing that I am buying half of the product already and second half will be delivered in 10 DLC. and 2 DLC togather have same value as Datadisk for D2.... not my cup of tea. I still want to play through ME1-3 but I am waiting for some Megaedition with all DLCs and without Origin. Until that I am not spending a single penny on EA games.
  21. Well I am really suprised and it seems quite good. 2 Things still bother me, Ubisoft - DRM and that cartoonish/WoW graphic style we have seen in last Heroes as well. Still will keep eye on it
  22. Well I played 6, 7 and 8 and I liked them but personaly I would not play another first person party based game. This game design grown really old for me but we will see.
  23. I must admit I am drooling through this topic very often at work. maybe you should make some ETA counter to next update to save my boss some cash
  24. Well ME and DA still come from EA, so we don't want to deny ourselves access to those games do we? Well after DA1 and ME1 I thought I will follow these series. But then even before DA2 come out I just rezisted to their awesome Origin system and will never buy anything requiring it. (too bad I kinda liked BF3). I still a little hoping for some Megabox for ME with all 3 games and all DLCs without origin and then I will consider putting money into it. Until then, they can choke on that money from DLCs
  25. I... again, what? Aside from the fact that the original Wasteland had blob-like combat (think The Bard's Tale but with guns) and put a heavy emphasis on skill usage (it's where Fallout took it, after all), do you seriously consider these two criteria: 1) it's turn-based; 2) you use a party; as enough to say a game is striving to be more like Jagged Alliance rather than an RPG? If so, why? No problem is with lack of conversation options, no social skills, minimal amount of 'Quests', High emphasis on combat etc. I dont know about what we are arguing here. For me its not RPG enough. You can have different view. And well, its like, your, opinion, man.
