  1. I'm at the halfway point, I think, on the volcano island and I've run out of steam. It's a good game but I can't take anymore. I'll do another run when I have vacation sometime. Lone wolf makes certain things easier but status effects are much more deadly. You can really ramp up damage though and make several kills on your first turn, which becomes near impossible with a full party. Also, there is a ring that grants stun immunity on the beginner island, assuming it wasn't random generated, I'm keeping that next time.
  2. And then some! Ive also never seen: Gone With the Wind, Casablanca, Its a Wonderful Life, Citizen Cane, etc. *runs* They made me sit through those in film class when i was a kid. They're all terrible. Well, Casablanca isn't terrible. It's kinda charming actually, but the rest. Don't bother.
  3. So you are one of those weirdos who have never seen The Godfather or The Wire and whose duty it is to be constantly reminded of this particular failing of their life.
  4. I like new edgy Star Trek, Reminds me of Mass Effect. Lots of intense personal drama. It bears no relation to any of the old formula, but time kinda ran out for the old formula anyway. When people say it's not very Star Trek they are probably right. The main character is not very likable though, which is a problem since it's not about the crew anymore. We'll see.
  5. Well that's when someone would make this. After 9/11.
  6. I noticed that the armor bars are often quite different, which would suggest there would be benefit from having an all magic+physical hybrid team. Of course you will lose approximately 50% damage output because you can't max any stats and you will need more invested in memory for the extra skills.
  7. Regarding the armor system, as far as I can see your party should be uniform, all capable of physical damage output or magical, or both, but no one mage who can only do magical damage as he will struggle to reduce magic armor fast enough. Except for Necromancy because it has a lot of skills that wear down physical armor, Point being you don't want your party to be working at reducing both bars simultaneously.
  8. My game was killed by exactly the same bug as the reboot. I had something called a Glowing Idol of Rebirth in my backpack. If you do that, if it's away from the normal inventory screen, you become immortal and a spent inactive idol spawns in your inventory every time you die while the active one in your backpack is not removed. So I went from the game being very difficult to not being able to lose a fight. My last untainted save is back on the beginner island. Don't feel like going back that far.
  9. There are a few skills that penetrate armor, but there aren't enough of them to kill an enemy that way, so what's the point really. Armor penetration cannot make a difference. Maybe at later levels there will be more things that set statuses through armor.
  10. How much is there. I found a dragon, can't talk to It, I assume I'm supposed to come back for it later. I'm doing the sourceking laborymth thing now and I'm assuming that's it for the first island. I also switched on tactical mode, which wasn't as bad as I thought. One advice though, don't take 'glass cannon' for the extra AP. The first thing that happens in every engagement is loads of negative effects on my character, I barely ever get to reap the benifits. Does lone wolf trigger when all your party is dead. It bloody well ought to, otherwise what's the point.
  11. I tend regard final boss fights as final. If they aren't interesting I'll just give up and let the game win.
  12. I made my own multi class rogue aeromancer and it sortof works. The biggest problem being dependent attributes, if you are a rouge you are kinda stuck with daggers, otherwise you can't backstab. I had to sink a point into strength as well because all the leather armors are ugly. A lot of classes benefit from tier one skills from other classes provided it's governed by the right attribute. More options is often more important than more damage.
  13. It's missing weapon sets for dual wielding. So it's 4 or 5 clicks if you want to switch to a bow using a dual wield character. Rookie move.
  14. Dafuq. Who am I kidding, I have terrible impulse control when I want something. I held out for three minutes.
  15. I'm tempted. I dunno, I guess I'll wait for a patch or a sale.
  16. I would recognize JC Denton's voice anywhere. This is genius.
  17. Warning. This is about bog bodies. I like Tollund man, but maybe I'm biased. Because Denmark can also lay claim to Edtved Girl a body buried in a coffin made out of a hollowed out tree, and Gravballe man. But Tollund man definitely takes the best picture. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_bog_bodies http://listverse.com/2017/01/28/10-ancient-bog-bodies-that-will-amaze-you/
  18. Just installed death of the outsider. It still bothers me that the regular run cycle is so slow, but Billie is supposed to be crippled so.
  19. How do you get a silent kill on the guy in the consulate
  20. More like the Vong versus the Mandalorians ? Anyway it's not hard to look good standing opposed to a Nazi.
  21. Trackball, seriously ? I mean, I like trackballs. I turned my dad onto one and he never used anything else after. 3D modelling maybe. I dunno, I never tried it.
  22. Yeah what the hell is with the necks on those elves.
  23. How is that word even in someone's vocabulary? He's Swedish. I dunno, for shock value. His weird bleached blonde hairdo make's him look like a white supremacist though. I kinda support the idea that a word means whatever you want it to, and if that word has fewer negative connotations in 10 years than it does today it will be because of people like him.
  24. I wish my PS would break, it has coil whine.
