Fitness and Health
Muay Thai 2-3 times a week (1-2 hours), but my health still suffers from bad habits (irregular sleeping time, spending too much time in front of the computer). I don't have any diet and eat whatever and whenever I feel like and still stay pretty thin.

Article about 2005 for RPGs
Apparently these boards pick poster's local time for quote date (It is 10th at my place). As you see it can produce some funny effects

Making you feel like you're there
Bingo. Back in those days. As you grow older your "immersion meter" decreases with your imagination, since you get more experience with the world. The younger you are, the better is your imagination due to the amount of life experience. Recall that kids have enormous imagination and can play any crap all day long, because it is really new and immersive for them. But now as you have grown up, games will not be as immersive as they used to be, until technology can keep up with expectations. The point I was making is that immersion is mainly how you perceive the game, the technology helps you with it. P.S. IIRC you still keep recommending people this game.

Say, what's the occasion for 'paper towel' jokes today, eh?

Making you feel like you're there
Before you make any more random and really [not smart] comments, tell me why you like Wasteland so much? Does it have deep story? Immersive graphics? Or maybe living vibrant NPCs and believable voice acting? It is your imagination.

New NWN2 Interview
It applies only to games that have tools for them and open resources (like NWN).

T.O.M.B.S, vol 3
Don't you have electronic tax forms submission? In AU we have e-tax, you download it, answer the questions in electronic forms and it calculates everything for you. Australian Taxation Office encourages it, because it is easier for them and for you, also processing is a lot faster this way.

Forced to play an Anime RPG
Ghost in the Shell most likely.

For those of you that use Windows...
They definitely do not do this intentionally, because maintenance is additional cost. No company will create costs for itself.

Making you feel like you're there
I think that immersion is primarily a human factor. If you have enough imagination, the game will be immersive. Of course, quality of implementation will be indirect factor. My $0.02

How about VTM sequel too?
You just don't get the joy of revenge.

GLAAD mad at Gene Shalit
"Article about 2005 in RPG" is a miniature version of this story. Only people who are overly sensitive about the issue are pissed off.

New NWN2 Interview
I died once because I didn't know what will be there and just entered the dungeon to give it a try (i.e. no buffs, no anything). Second time it was easy, because of uber gear I had (that includes heal potions). It was much more difficult it was to defeat any dragon in BG2 and they were really fearful comparing to NWN. For bosses, pretty much yeah.

Also, I put all gold into upgrading my sword and had immunity to fear.

New NWN2 Interview
I died once when entered 1st time (I didn't realize I must destroy that pillar first). It was the first dungeon to complete in this chapter. I used 2 heal potions and made Nathyrra to buff my character. I'm being honest.

GLAAD mad at Gene Shalit
What's good for him is he gets free press. I didn't even know him before that thread.
