Humodour

I handled it myself. I am a bard so my chance to hit is the same as that of a fighter due to inspirations and dexterity (weapon finesse) and such, and I had haste, mirror image, and 4 attacks per round from dual-wielding. Also my AC was about 30 due to my dexterity. Sand didn't offer, but Qara, Casavir, and Khelgar did. I think Casavir and Khelgar would've died quickly. Qara would've beaten it easily as long as you picked haste or expeditious retreat as one of her spells. Right now I'm a bit bored with the game because the combat is way too easy and this is on Hthe hardest difficulty. I hope MotB is harder. Edit: Also, I suspect I get to kill Bishop eventually, but I hope it's soon. I'll let Qara roast him slowly. Although I'm concerned about her loyalty as well.

The sun will incinerate the atmosphere and boil the oceans in about 500 million years. At 1 billion years, life on Earth will cease to exist (except possibly for extremophile bacteria and archaea). At 5 billion years, the sun will have engulfed the earth completely - normally the Earth would be thrown farther out into the solar system as the sun loses mass, but tidal interactions will actually pull it in. The thing is, the dinosaurs didn't exist 250 million years ago. Humans have only existed really for about 0.1 million years. Civilisation has only existed for about 0.01 million years. Artificial electricity and the accompanying technological age has only existed for about 0.0001 million years. 6 millions years ago, Humans, Chimps and Bonobos were one species. 4 million years ago humans and chimps were still ****ing each-other. 100 million years ago, birds were still maniraptora dinosaurs. Humans won't be around in 500 million years, whether we wipe ourselves out (doubtful) or thrive (probable). Whatever sentient being is around, though, human ancestry or not, it will undoubtedly have developed the capability to outlive the death of its star.

The leaders of our states are called premiers here. They are like mini prime ministers and often act like it.

Are you Volourn's alt or something? There is nothing enthralling in any of the characters in either JE or ME, and KotOR's, six years on, seem pretty thin too. Counter-example: Jolee. And Assassin Droid.

This from someone who's played through BG. I recall taking down legions of kobolds, orcs, orges, gibberlings, wolves, bears, and skeletons with 1) shoot arrows, 2) pause every five seconds as you select a different target for your archers, 3) continue until the enemy gets near, 4) run off until they stop chasing you, 5) come back and shoot more arrows. That's 75% of the fights right there. Though when I was really feeling saucy, I had Minsc stand in the middle of a crowd while my archers picked the opponents off one by one. Wow, you were pretty **** at the game.

Oh god dammit I thought I managed to avoid the Internet last night. Obviously not. Now to figure out where else I posted and who I abused.

It's interesting how Obsidian managed to take this path and Bioware will go great lenghts to make most of the characters immortal. Writers, like David Gaider, probably want to keep most of the characters alive as killing 'em would make his job harder. I liked how BG2 allowed most of the characters to be killed but Mr.Gaider thinks it's not worth the extra work. This issue would probably make a great discussion panel at the Game Developers Conference. Kudos for taking the different path Obsidian! **** yes it's worth the extra work. Glad Obsidian didn't cop out on this like Bioware often does.

Sounds fun!

No, Windows 7 has not been released yet. Support teams generally don't support beta versions and the like.

Well, Baldur's Gate 1 was good even if it was downhill from there. Also, Bethesda is not the worst company in the game industry.

Always an interesting piece of technology, but I've not really got anything new to add since the last thread you made on this. Good to see people attempting to actually use it for a realworld purpose though instead of yet another prototype.

Damn straight. Edit: That is, I don't mind soaking up some bullets. It'd suck if it was too realistic. Deus Ex hit on a good level for the harder difficulties.

Guys, here's how the world will end: http://www.endofworld.net/

So I've got Shadow Magic Missle, Shout, and Cacophonic Burst. All my nuking needs! Soon to get Ice Storm, too! Oh, and I beat the crap out of Lorne within seconds. I died the first time though. The trick was to beat on him for a round or two, then cast Haste and run off till his invulnerability ends then hit him once. Because if he gets 2 critical hits in (each 50 to 60 dmg), game over.

lol gromnir. I'm not sure where that came from, but it was amusing. Anyway guys, I'm about to enter the Blacklake district with my Bard and I have to say, the game is far better once I arrived at Neverwinter. Also, my Bard is insanely powerful. She regularly survives combat that wipes the rest of the party out (including Khelgar) and not only that, she continues on to wipe out the rest of the map while they're still snoozing on the ground. I'm playing on Hardest to boot. I'm thinking bards are as powerful as clerics - perhaps more esoteric. The inspirations are really good, the Hymn will be insane once I get it, and dual-weapons tear through anything as long as there's a little bit of elemental damage on them. Still haven't got curse song, which I will take once I hit 12 - then it'll be like a hot knife through butter. The other songs I'm looking forward to are Legionairre's March and Song of Heroism. Those look insane. Do multiple bard songs (of different type) stack? Right now I'm annoyed because I received Shadow Conjuration at lvl 11 but can't cast it till level 12. Woo, magic missiles!

They weren't nearly as good as HL1 or Opposing Force, but Episode 1 was still pretty fun and it felt more like the originals!

Tiax rules! Make way. Make way.

Ranged fared pretty well in the original.

Um, yes? We will wait. And?

Look in Bruce's eye and tell me you're not lying. I know this is Obsidian and all, but this is starting to sound too good. Like once-in-a-lifetime good. You really are making this game, not bringing it back from the future, or forcing alien slaves to program it, right? Trust me, I was as surprised as anyone. But yeah, thanks to the mission structure of the hubs, some characters you simply won't meet if you skip some of the optional missions. I mean, this is a major character who can pop up in multiple missions and is one of the romance targets, but it's entirely possible to never meet her in a playthrough. Hearing things like this make me really wonder about how all of the seemingly very extensive freedom factors into the endgame. There is no end game. The devs just kind of gave up and eventually Mike is trampled to death by a wild horse in Rome.

Knock knock, who
