Actually you can't, it's mostly trial and error, especially with spells. Not only that, the descriptions are often inaccurate, look up an unofficial guide to the talents and spells and you will see lots of mismatches between the description and the actual effects. On your first playthrough with only the descriptions to guide you, you won't have a clue, and there is no way to unlearn one in favor of another. They really should have put that in.

Ohh I get it, you were aping what one poster always says about the wire. Well, theres still not a lot of rap in the Wire, theres rappers though. Method Man does a good job for instance.

I suppose the CIA said so, huh? They found loads of obsolete artillery shells with trace chemical and biological agents, probably leftovers from the Iran war, run down production facilities and equipment , nothing to suggest current production however, which is why they suggested/invented the idea of mobile facilities, none of which they found. Did he have capacity, probably, or at least could reconstitute it reasonably fast.

I still use the leather jacket because everything else looks stupid.

according to your link Jet addiction is forever, although there is a quest-cure. I Think I'm going to cheat up 2 points of strength and 1 of Int and Luck, that way most perks are available. You really ought to be able to see the whole perk list at character generation to be able to plan for the ones you wanted.

I can't remember, does addiction eventually go away. I'm down to 3 strength and it's seriously hampering my shooting. Apparently you get a penalty for not having the required strength to fire a weapon, which I think is pretty stupid, but I'm not going to restart just because my strength is 4 rather than 5 or 6 which lets you use all small arms without penalty. Ligth addiction also gives you a bonus to perception which actually helps shooting. Is there anyway to increase your ability scores, perks, books, special stuff ?

What do you mean, there's not a lot of hiphop in the wire.

Some of it is the job, the president is supposed to be under scrutiny, but there is still a political slant there.

I played through all the openings, only finished one game all the way as mage. Dwarf definately had the most promise. Didn't care much about Sir whatshisname's fate, and would hardly have used the urn of sacred ashes on him if given a choice, but honestly there were quite a few NPCs who provoked nothing but indifference.

I have been watching Fox News on a webstream for kicks while at work, and I have to say there is a whole lot of commentary going on even in the 'straigth news' sections, especially when the subject is Obama.

They are practically all cardboard cutouts. Worthington has 2 or 3 scenes where he actually gets to act, and they aren't bad. It's just not a whole lot for 2 and a half hours.

Is this clear sky or something else ?

Well it IS hard when you are a lv 3 small arms specialist trying to survive against bounty hunters with a spear.

I forgot how hard FO2 is. I have been running around for months in game time (rest untill fully healed) and I don't even have a gun. Can't buy one because I have low barter skill, so I have been running around the world map to see if I could find one lying around. I think the main quest eventually times out and my tribe dies of starvation, can't be long now.

Ice T actuallly was pretty good before he became an actor/rapper, just IMHO.

Yes, yes, I'm sure they are very manly. What I'm wondering is why the focos on the fact that a particular **** happens to be rapper. To me at least the pertinent detail is ****, and the insignificant one is rapper.

Inspired by this thread, and by the fact that it's probably the only thing that will run on my crappy new laptop, I decided to steam FO2. Are mele characters worth playing ?

The chosen one spoke of in the propechy. When you think about it it's really strange Worthington doesn't also have amnesia.

Lol. A Danish resercher who posited much the same theory says he has been professionally ostracised and that the reserch cost him his career. I don't know anything about the merits or otherwise of his work though.

but it's nice, you can use the 'puter while resting. Now all I need is a catheter and I'll never have to leave my bed.

Some animals are tastly, some are not, others have been useful to us and we have struck a bargain with them, Cats and dogs for instance, horses, etc.

The thing came with vista OEM, does anyone know how you move the cursor using the arrow keys, there is a way I think. I can't stand that pad thingie, it's messing up my fingers.

And theres the fact that if you actually studied it and came up with a genetic variation favoring whitey you would also flush your career down the toilet. The reason not to bother with race as regards intellectual capacity is that there is absolutely nothing you can do about it. You can do something about child rearing and education however.

Isn't Fallout 256 colours. It looks really awful. Not that I'm a graphics whore, but I do have a bare minimum.

Not a bad idea actually.
