I have more stories about things I shouldn't have bought than things I should've.. come to think of it, I only have stories about things I shouldn't have done or bought..

I've noticed that alot of people on these boards like animals.. well why don't we have a little show of hands, so to speak, with links or pictures of amazing animals doing amazing things.. I'll start off with Tyson the skateboarding bulldog!

I'm Kristian... and I'm proud of it!

What? you are you saying that I'm Christ or something? (that's my name your messing with you know)

Only time I really enjoyed Mission Vao's presence, was when I had Zaalbar kill her. She was pretty useless and annoying.. But in all fairness she was a ok interesting character, I just wished they'd made her more valuable to the party.

Then what about that food dropoff .. Dharma still exists, but just not on the Island. The Others have, to some extent, taken over much of what Dharma did, except for the eksperimental psychological research. There still seems to be no connection besides Ben however. It could seem though, that The Others and Dharma had the initial same goal - to explore the Island - both geographical and in all other aspect. The use of advanced technology, versus a "natural connection" to The Island, seemed to be their main difference though - so maybe Richard, Jacob and the likes were a splinter group of Dharma? And Ben united the ideas in helping to wipe off Dharma..

I feel there's more to it than that. Sure it's in Ben and his gangs best interest to keep the Island unknown, but my gut is telling me that they weren't the ones behind it, at least not completly. "The Box" may have conjured up this fake plane - but at this point we don't know what "The Box" is exactly or who is controlling it. I think there's another player in this game, one we have yet to see - and one who is playing on all the hands.

NWN2, Civ4 and MTW2 at the same time.. (meaning I don't really have time to play any of them) I finally have a computer that can runs these games!

heh seeing as I'm even referring to Kreia as "she" really reveals to me how I view her as an (almost) actual person.. If KOTOR2 had been truely finished by Obsidian, it would have been a mindblowing game indeed..

just remembered my actual favorite quote - by a friend of mine I only read letters with stamps. - Meta, "plus ultra" is way to deep to have as a favorite quote.. it actually makes you think!

It is a very sad thing that nowadays there is so little useless information. - Oscar Wilde

This last episode was really incredible, except for Jacob, it seemed quite of out tune with the rest - but as everything else in this show, I'm sure there's a perfectly abnormal and obscure explenation for it. I've been dying to know more about The Dharma Initiative vs "The Others" how they were connected and what exactly happened - great revelation! (btw - how the **** do they make those strange whispering noises!??) Something that keeps ringing in my ear though, is the fact that they found the plane out in the "real" world - with all the people dead and accounted for.. also something Richard said to Juliet earlier, when he was recruiting her - "we're located just outside of Portland" - which is where Ben was actually born. Which makes me think he has alot to say in the coming episodes. This show is building up like nothing I've ever seen, it's either gonna be the best series I've ever seen or the biggest dissapointment... - ps. I found it quite ironic that Charlie and Hurley found Ben's dad, knocked his head off, and took a ride in the car.

Kreia and then Jolee right behind her.. of all the characters in the KOTOR universe they were the most alive to me, very fleshed out and deep, with clear distinctive personalities (opposed to Canderous - the tank or Mission - the teenage rebel).. But Kreia wins because she actually made me think and speculate about morality and my indoctrinated conceptions of good & evil.

Both Canderous, Carth and Zaalbar can be made quite effective if you focus them on blades and melee fighting.. so you can actually easily be the "spellcaster" quite early off.. I always focused everyone (except the droids) on melee fighting as guns are utterly useless in the game compared to a quick flurry. I usually played as Scoundrel/Consular which meant I weren't that good of a fighter.. But it was more fun as the game became a little (though not much) more challeging.

First time through KOTOR 1 I used Carth and Bastilla (because of the romance option) until I found Jolee, then he replaced Carth.. I wanted Juhani more, but she never said a word and wasn't really that interesting after a while. Through several playthrough I would say Carth and Bastilla are my favorite characters, due to the fact that they are the most "active" companions - in terms of responding and reacting to the game. Then comes HK-47 for his deliciously morbid remarks, but he's fairly incomptetent in action imho. In KOTOR2 I used Kreia anytime I could, then I switched alot around, learning from my experience in KOTOR 1 (that every character has something unique to say) .. I didn't realize who you could train (or how) until about lvl 16, when Atton suddenly became a jedi after a rather long discussion. But I think The Handmaiden was my primary choice - followed by Atton. I never used T3 or GOTO more than once.

Hugin and Munin.. meaning "thought" and (the) "memory" Hugin comes from "at komme i hu" - "to have in ones thoughts / to have in ones mind" and Munin "han som mindes" - "He who remembers" Just thought I would add my two cents.

Without Vader - Luke and Leia would never be born and the dawn of a new society would never emerge.. The consequences of changing a single fact in the past are too widespread for anyone to to comprehend. Every thing you do changes the chain of events that leads to your own future - the air you breath, where you step.. Also the fact that you travel backwards to change an event is in itself a testamony to the fact that you can't change it at all - you would not be you if it didn't happen and therefore you wouldn't even travel back in the first place (because then it never happened).

^ The birthrate is 1,7 in Scandinavia and 1,6 for the rest of the industrial world (on average).. We aren't really churning out babies in a higher frequency (unfortunately) - longer education is the main reason why these numbers drop and the winter here in the northern hemipshere is the main reason why it's higher!

no, it had a specific name.. though the gray master robes did give you a substantial charisma bonus.

I could use a scotch..

I would start out as light.. but I would probably fall to the dark side pretty fast.. I couldn't handle a power that allows me to influence what people think..

Very interested! .. I hadn't heard about either of them! thanks for the info.. I'll have to keep an eye out for those.

Hot chocolate milk ... mmmmm

I've found most of the unique items during replays.. I remember one very powerful gray robe that made my Sith Lord totally wipe the floor with anyone (can't remember the name though - but it gave me fast force reg. +4 wis + 2 cha and a bunch of other usefull bonuses)

After playing NWN 2 for a while, the Wendersnaven keeps being mentioned - and from it's desriction I couldn't help but to think of Lewis Carroll's The hunting of the Snark .. The Snark is a creature that a group of "adventures" sets out to find - but no one has any clue how it looks, what it is, or even where it is... Everyone has an opinion on it though.. They sought it with thimbles, they sought it with care; They pursued it with forks and hope; They threatened its life with a railway-share; They charmed it with smiles and soap. It might just be me that sees a link where none is though (the above has obviously nothing to do with the Wendersnaven of NWN, but nonetheless it described much in the same manor - no one really knows anything).. Edit: Random knowledge: Lewis Carroll uses the word "Vorpal" in his poem "Jabberwocky" as a decription of a deadly sharp weapon - which is the same in AD&D, which in turn let me to think that this Wendersnaven was a reference to his work as well..
