  1. Why would I care about balance in a single player game? Arcanum had fantastic character creation.
  2. I do want to be careful with the term 'beliefs' here, because I am more interested in helping my children be tolerant and open-minded than having them follow any specific dogma. As for being dumb teenagers, my job is to just do my best to make sure they survive the experience.
  3. I pumped 80 hours of time into it in about a week, so I can't complain. The toolset was the real gem for me. If you own Shadowrun and haven't tried at least one of the user created adventures, you aren't really making full use of the game. Although I think it will be more interesting to see how good the mod community after a year and the expansion. Heck, they already fixed the save system.
  4. It didn't help that the name was a self-fulfilling prophecy.
  5. Beat my 2nd boss in Rogue Legacy. Woot! It was the forest skull. I beat him with a gigantic Hokage. I thought he'd be dead meat, since he is too big to avoid damage, but that extra reach really helped.
  6. Eh, it sounds like a lot of work. It actually kind of sounds like Vanguard.
  7. That's why you are the besterest. I haven't been disappointed by anything, but I've only received Shadowrun as a pledgee. I happily bought Expedition Conquistadors and FTL though, and they were great. I expect to be let down a bit by a few of the Sierra Alum making games, but honestly I felt I owed them for all the great childhood memories. Shroud of the Avatar might be a bomb too, but I put a low bid in.
  8. Yeah, that Ruh(hic)anger line is badly written. The bullet to the knee doesn't bother me as much, it isn't that blatant.
  9. DX:HR is definitely a FPS. After the tutorial it does slow down quite a bit though. It's basically a shooter for the first 30 minutes, and then you can play anyway you want after. I have trouble with the fast paced FPS games as well, but DX:HR never bothered me.
  10. That's cool to hear about Age of Decadence. I plan on buying it eventually too.
  11. That's funny because I dropped D3 super fast, while I finished up XCOM, DXHR, FONV, and SR.
  12. Martian Memorandum was one of the first games I remember playing on my dad's 386. That being said, I doubt they've aged well.
  13. Are you using mods? http://www.gog.com/news/mod_spotlight_planescape_torment_mods_guide I played with most of these on my last playthrough and loved it. I tried the widescreen mod, but it started giving me a headache. I'll stick to the native resolution, it still looks pretty good.
  14. That also means some loser reported him for that. Those should be the people targeted.
  15. I picked up Planescape Torment for sale on GoG. I hadn't played it since college, and I don't remember much of the content past the mortuary, so it has been interesting learning about the world a second time. I never finished it back in the day, so this might be the playthrough that gets me there.
  16. I love my support soldiers. They are more mobile than any unit in the game, and I don't know how you get by without their triple medkit usage later in the game.
  17. What the heck is Diesel Punk? Anyways, I'd be happy with a futuristic setting, maybe a bit bleak, but not full on Fallout post-apoc. You kind of left out Fantasy, but I guess PE handles that.
  18. Nope. No discount on AC4 on steam during the sale. It was on for 50% off at Amazon about a week ago. Yep, it was just on Amazon to Prime members. I have it under my Christmas tree thanks to that sale right now.
  19. I wouldn't read much into this. Obsidian has been pretty smart business wise in creating relationships with other developers and helping with projects outside of their in house ones. That doesn't mean they are making an MMO.
  20. These look cooler than windmills:
  21. The chainsaw and mask was a bit much, I'm guessing those kids will need therapy eventually.
  22. I have no idea if a non-zero probability means it is possible or impossible, however I would think the odds would vary depending on how close you live to said leopard. And given current fashion trends, I'd say the odds that a child will come into contact with leopard print to be very high, which we should probably chalk in the 'reasons to not reproduce' column. edit: I was really hoping we'd get more traction out of this thread, but the original poster seems uninterested in seeing it through.
  23. They do not share the license, they were brought on to consult with Red Eagle. I have no idea what happened to Red Eagle, buty Obsidian really doesn't have any say in this thing.
  24. It might be criminal not bring a child into the world in this day and age. We've got Skylanders, for goodness sake. My kid can take a toy, put it on a portal, and it shows up in a video game. It's a magical world.
  25. Do you dress in black a lot? Just curious. Hey we all go through our awkward stages It will get better eventually new poster.
