Humodour

You know, that sounds even more pathetic than your usual drivel.

K guys sorry to spam but this deserves it: OMG you can dropkick stuff! Pick something up with E and then kick with F and it kicks the object forward low in a straight line. More accurate than a normal toss I think.

Hey guys, is it worth playing the game on Hard as a Mage? I heard it's just plain painful and annoying as a fighter but considering ideally a mage wants to avoid close quarters and getting hurt at all, maybe Hard is good fun for a mage?

The thing is, it's more likely you just suck. Edit: But I still love you.

I bought this off Steam for cheap and am playing it now. I find myself liking (loving?) this game for one of the same reasons I loved Deus Ex 1 (and even NOLF1): the combat is darn fun. There's so many ways to do any one fight. I especially love kicking enemies into fires or shooting them in the head with a fireball when two of them are on a ladder coming up to kill me. Shooting the top guy knocks him onto his mate so they both plummet to their doom.

Not really.

It's still on. Go see it.

I wish you'd stop saying **** like that because given the evidence it makes no sense. Perhaps you should start by defining what you mean by 'isolationism'?

Dark Messiah of Might and Magic is fun. Think Half-Life 2 with swords and fireballs. The physics stuff is awesome. I love kicking enemies into fires.

Trust me, though, it's coming out Tuesday the 28th of January.

lol. The sad thing is, a lot (but not all) of the Libertarians and similar I know actually believe this.

Yeah, that's definitely it. A conspiracy.

No surprise, Avatar has been banned in China because it "might cause civil unrest".

What evidence was there, that there was WMDs after the first Gulf War? Big fething heaps of them. Hundreds of tonnes of materiel. We're not talking the kind of things you leave accidentally in a taxi. I'd still like to know where the hell they went, even if it was just 'wrongly filed and disposed of as sewage'. Si tu pisses partout t'es pas Chanel du tout.

Even if you were right and they did motivate such acts, that still wouldn't be enough reason to forbid them. I'm glad we largely agree. /thread

What are the crates like in this game now that it's almost done? Is there much depth of character, and how many different crate types will we see? Will the Russian crates be snow-covered? EDIT: Oh, and most importantly, will enemies burst out of them?

Rap is a disgusting form of 'music'.

Back in the middle ages, when the patriarchal power structure was even more powerful than it is now, being fat was considered as beautiful among women. I don't know about beautiful but I think it was a sign of wealth. I remeber reading that somewhere. I'm pretty sure that fat/chubby was considered beautiful too. Certainly, skinny was ugly. This was the case even up to about 100 to 150 years ago.

You seen either? In Fern Gully, the humans were misguided, not evil (and not just the main guy), and there was one or two mischievous/mean (though admittedly not evil) fairies. The only thing evil in the whole movie was Hexxus - the spirit of evil. You'd kind of expect him to be pure evil. In Avatar, Quaritch was very fatherly to his men and it seemed like he was a minor grey character until halfway through when they flipped his place with the sociopathic corporate executive. Likewise, the female pilot seemed like she'd done her fair share of mindlessly following Quaritch's orders and enjoying it - essentially oppressing the natives along with the rest till she had her 'redemption moment' at the tree. It's not like there's massive depth to this in either movie, but I wouldn't call it black and white.

Loved that movie. Especially since I've actually been to Mount Warning. Beautiful place.

It was kind of gamebreaking that I was forced to kill them. There was no really valid non-lethal option. My only significant gripe with NOLF. And why was non-lethal ineffective in NOLF? Well besides the fact that it was ****ing difficult to pull off, in NOLF2 enemies woke up pretty quickly. Enemies waking up is effectively punishing the player for choosing the non-lethal route, because you know that the person who just blew their head off had no such issues and that your own game would be easier (if not as enjoyable to roleplay) if you did the same.

I ****ing hope not. That's so annoying. Screw realism. If there's no gameplay difference between a lethal and a non lethal takedown, the choice becomes essentially meaningless. There was no difference in Deus Ex, and yet it wasn't meaingless because characters and dialogue develope differently based on your actions (hopefully AP extends on this, because while the dialogue changed, the consequences didn't change much - which was still fine - a lot of us are roleplayers, Pidesco). Actually even in gameplay non-lethal was meaningful because it was usually the quickest, most silent way to remove an enemy, which certainly alters gameplay. SO YOU'RE WRONG!!!!111

as reported by left wing news sources. Yeah, all those left wing news sources that are owned by gigantic corporations. Whenever people like taks dismiss any news they don't like as coming from the something like the "left wing media" it's a strong sign that whatever they're arguing about is going to rest on very flimsy logic indeed.

Kind of rich coming from you.

I'd contend you're wrong because you're not considering the interactivity element of gaming. Both can desensitise but gaming is far more likely to also motivate such acts than passive observation (as for movies) is.
