Easter
For me it's not about religion, I don't subscribe to any religion, it's about being with your family and having some fun.

Easter
Or when someone holds the egg towards the top while squeezing it. Or the undercover wood egg, lost such a good egg one year to a wooden one, I had my revenge though...

Looks like, I never really though about it until now, hence the topic.

Easter
I have been wondering do you have egg battles in your country for Easter and if not what are your traditions.

What are you playing now
I loved Dishonored, the setting and story were great and I enjoyed the gameplay, even if it was on the easier side.

Josh Sawyer on dealing with grognards
In Dark Souls when you revive the enemies respawn thus you can just farm them for souls (xp), in IE games you have a finite number of enemies and thus XP. So no I would say it's not the same. Especially in the IWD series. As for learning the AI, well in Dark Souls that consists of either timing the counter attacks or knowing at what time to roll and at what time to attack, while in IE games ,I dare say, you had more stuff to learn.

Dark Souls is an action rpg, and there is no "gameover" in Dark Souls, you just spam encounters until you grind enough souls to be strong enough to pass the boss with your skill, or until you learn the pattern of the AI.

Global Implications of the Ukraine Crisis
So you were born in 13th century England, then? What's your secret, Pilates? Think for just a second of what you really know about the snubby twats you are lambasting with such gleeful abandon—their life experiences, their backgrounds, their activities and involvements. Whatever mental image you have of "them", you might as well substitute it with a ****ing talking oven, because that's about as close as you are going to get at an accurate depiction. And hey, at least you'll get a chuckle each time you think of "them". P.S. No, really. What's your secret? I think she was trolling them, not 100% sure so don't take my word on it.

I am just gonna leave this here. http://www.princeton.edu/~mgilens/Gilens%20homepage%20materials/Gilens%20and%20Page/Gilens%20and%20Page%202014-Testing%20Theories%203-7-14.pdf edit: To elaborate, it's a paper on the US government and how in fact it's an oligarchy. The paper is not finished yet but it paints a pretty picture.

Heck, IWD2 is number one on my list, but I'll still express my concerns.

As far as I see the scripts they use aren't cheats at all, and as for how he moves, isn't that just bunny hopping?

Josh Sawyer on dealing with grognards
@IndiraLightfoot The problem is not what was said in the KS, the problem is what wasn't said. As more time passes we learn how much Josh dislikes the BG series. Now everyone is entitled to his opinion and taste, but it doesn't inspire confidence that the person in charge of the "spiritual successor" of the IE games, thinks so little of it's best one. If he was upfront in the KS about his views on BG I doubt that the support would have been as overwhelming. All that being said I still chose to be optimistic that the game will be good.

No more GM sucker punches, and the gameplay challenges thereof
And you could cast protection from weapons and those fights were countered too. Any fight can be cheesed and countered. Also it seems to me that your problem is with the AI and not the system it self. That is a whole other story though.

Josh Sawyer on dealing with grognards
Spot on MReed. At this point it would be beneficial for Josh to come out and say what he disliked about the IE games, or if that list is too long (as seems to be the case), what he liked about them. While it won't change anything, it will serve to inform the public and lessen any shock that would/will happen at release. I really think that what we were told in the KS was not the whole picture.
