Gorgon

Classic

I like it. I eagerly await a big budget Hollywood action flick that ends with everyone's heads exploding. Structural explosions and collapses are so yesteryear

Of course fallout was a dead series, the last installment was a decade ago, give or take. Same reason the comparisons don't really mean that much. Fallout 3 is a good game despite all it's flaws. It's a bit soulless and too cute and cuddly for post apocalyptia, but it's good nonetheless. One can always hope the expansion will be better. Shivering isles was miles better than Morrowind for instance.

Now you are getting it

Insert exploding by stages headquarters where appropriate

Unkillable companions are worse than unkillable NPCs. You sort of understand why certain NPCs are there to bring the plot together, best thing to do with those from a writing standpoint is to get them out of the way as soon as possible, and generally have as few of those as humanly possible. NWN2 had the worst of both worlds, immortal NPCs you could not get rid of. Well not until well into the game.

Why does the temple have to collapse at the end of every action movie. A secret deal with the writer's guild...

I'd say the one thing the game runs out of rather fast is narrative thrust. Sandboxing is fun, but unless there is something noteworthy to do it gets old.

Also I wouldn't keep trial running the system at critical temperatures, that could kill the processor. What does the BIOS read as CPU temperature.

If the CPU fan isn't a snug fit it could well cause the mobo to auto shutdown. Since your machine could boot and work for a while the processor must still work. Next step is to order a new CPU fan and heatsink, it's quite cheap compared to anything else in there so i'd say you are in luck.

No wonder they needed that game

Storm of Zhehir is the more open world one from Obsidian that's been done for ages that they are holding out for a Christmas release right, whats the other one.

If Fallout 1 or 2 had had the technology available, there is no telling how much more enjoyable it might have been. There are a lot of extras that just weren't possible. The comparison isn't fair.

I liked the first for it's exploration and puzzles. Good for it's day. Then came remake, 1 through 109. There hasn't been a good Tomb Raider game for over a decade, that don't seem to stop the tide though. It's amazing what name recognition can do. I know of which I speak, I played some of those horrible games. Also I intend to be a better man than you and leave the function of utter crap unattributed.

'Tomb Raider' Gimme a break. All the previous installments have been utter crap. What makes this different..

I like save points if they are done carefully. Not just before an unskippable sequence obviously. If I know that not too far back is an autosave or save point, I can immerse myself more in the game and not have to press quicksave every time I feel I have done something slightly noteworthy. There is no call to disable independent saves though, Save points only work if the game gets the difficulty setting just right. Often that is not the case.

Nice dodge, aye.

I think that's the reason we turn into slobs. Psychologically it starts as a statement of identity.

She is really bad at costume dramas and usually good in everything else.

None of the women I have known could ascend, or stoop, to my level of slobness. Of course all this proves is that I am one.

So that's what the weird flash of light is. Yes, try switching off the light and peeling some scotch tape.

Go further to sell your stuff. Also the heavy military fighter you have access to in the beginning is the best overall balance between moveability and firepower. You could shoot more stuff and take more damage, but moving around slow is a sure way to catch a lot of missiles.

I accidentally killed all her companions. Should teach them not to stand between a flamer and a ghoul anyway.

Well surely if you believe in God you believe in satan, angles, miracles and ghosts by extension.

Whenever my boundless pessimism and skepticism regarding spirituality comes up as I'm talking with my friends, I am always berated with the knowitall phrase 'there is more between heaven and earth', and the smug bastards all fall over each other priding themselves on being more open minded than me. It's not like it takes any effort to believe in Santa, Jesus, Asmodeus or the tooth fairy, and they never qualify why it's better to jump to conclusions you can't support.
