Gorth

Hush, you are giving away my plans for the next "cereal killer"! Watch this space for the official announcement of Gorth Flakes (t)

Just wait for the hair dye DLC

Let's just create a metrosexual character. Nobody will ever know what gender it is.

Meh, had nothing to do with sexuality. I hated him because he was a whiny, self-righteous, conceited jerk too full of self-pity to see beyond the tip of his nose. Took great pleasure in putting him out of his misery (same thing goes for that other whiny character, what's his name, Fenris?). I know this isn't a wishlist thread, but I wouldn't mind seeing that Qunari (elf actually) assassin from Mark of the Assassin again. She was good fun (and I enjoyed the expansion). Otherwise, give me Varric any day (I wouldn't mind if Isabella and Zevran tagged along either). The rest of the cast can go raise sheep in Ferelden

It could also be because I was online when the event started and every man and his blaster suddenly rushed the contract stands. Gave it a break for a day and went back at a time when west coast US is fast asleep (well, they should be). The benefit of living in the unwanted bastard child timezone. Less crowded, got my 5 pieces of info and the bounty. Then I realised it's bound to legacy, so in short order, 5 more characters in my legacy were off to various places collecting bounties. My commando hit a snatch though, no way he could defeat his Tattooine opponent in one on one combat, even with companions for help. Still, got 5 bounties in an hour and a half and I'm now approaching tier 2 in the reputation (friend?).

Probably because it's the lowest level? If they did like me, it was simply the first on the list

The only "gripe" I've had with Bioware/EA in that regard was the rather blatant sales kiosk in your camp in DA:O (that big shining, attention grabbing symbol above his head, a constant reminder that you hadn't bought some irrelevant addon). Can't get to try out EU IV before I get home from work. It's going to be a looong day.

I thought Republic controlled Taris looked "freaking amazing" in SWTor Not in a photo realistic way, just in that impression of large scale destruction and ruin kind of way.

That would explain the weird button layout on some controllers

It might be an art direction thing. If I remember correctly, dreadlocks were all the rage in BG2, most characters besides Minsc having them (never checked Boo's hairstyle though).

I find it comparable to XCom. Just without the pretentious price tag. Oh, and combat is more fun. Biggest joy killer is the linearity and the lack of proper save game functionality. Atmosphere is good and the game is "fun" in that undefinable, defying the odds kind of way (total being greater than sum of parts or whatever).

I tried one of the contracts. Went to Hutta. It was ridiculous. The tiny cantina was crowded with 40+ or so people from levels 25-55, squatting on the spawn points, checking to see who had the fastest trigger. Gave up after 2 minutes and abandoned the quest. Maybe in a few months time (since it's announced to be a recurring thing). Had more fun getting my first Tauntaun, scouring Hoth for data (got the subscriber one, although I had 6-7 spare data items, might get the "full" priced one too over the weekend). Since EA decided to only take the servers down for a few hours instead of a few days as first announced, it meant I actually had most of a day to play Macroth is now level 50, a few xp shy of level 51. Started to check out the harder space missions (got brutally slaughtered in the first attempt). Also finished two flashpoints along the way that I hadn't played before (first Red Reaper and then False Emperor. Still need to do Directive 7 though, group finder is funny like that). Edit: Cleared some bonus missions on Makeb while still being level 48, but decided my chances of survival would probably improve if I gained a few more levels first, so now continuing the Bounty Hunter story's chapter 3 on Belsavis. Edit2: Blizz is a blast. A daily commendation to whoever came up with that character.

I wonder if they are going to have leagues, like division 1, 2 and premiere league? Or maybe like boxing, light weight, middle weight and the heavy weight championships?

What would you suggest instead? Give it to Prince Charles. The man may be mad for all practical purposes, but you can guarantee he isn't power-crazed. His son(s) may have different ideas though about what an army can be used for... *mumbles something about unfinished business at the Khyber Pass*

Hey, at least we don't take a day off just to watch horse races

Happened to me once a long time ago. It was outdoors though, not in my freezer. Forgot a bottle I had stuck in the snow (to free up my hands for a moment, fiddling with keys) and then forgot about it (leaving it outdoors) until the day after.

Never heard of those cards. Maybe I should check my account some day. I do have somewhere between 50 and 100 games on my steam account (although 2/3 of those are Humble Bundle and similar games).

Where is your trust in the system??? I find this one generally amusing (from www.cia.gov) "The Central Intelligence Agency is committed to protecting your privacy and will collect no personal information about you unless you choose to provide that information to us." So, we are all pretty safe from snooping

That's actually true... Witch hunts and burnings were the works of peasants and zealots. The Inquisition was created as a response to heretics (the Cathar and others). It was mostly about preventing sedition from the "one and only true faith" and cracking down on people who tried changing things. Pop culture has turned it into something different (e.g. WH40k) Edit: There is a kind of irony in the Roman Catholic Church inventing the inquisition, considering that they were the first heretics, deviating from the Orthodox faith, but that's of course pretty irrelevant to the game

Just wait until somebody realise the reality tv value of the project. Big Brother in Space.

Maybe she's your mother (insert Freud commentary here) and you are the son of the Hero of Ferelden... Artwork has been nice enough so far. Does look like something out of a ball at Versailles.

Not quite there yet. My Powertech is level 48 (halfway to 49). Decided to stay put a bit on Hoth and go looking for Tauntaun mounts. Checking a FAQ it looks like you need binoculars to find the nests??? Also, in typical fashion, servers are going to be down for most of a day. In true EA style, it also looks like they are going to wait until mid-week when its public holiday here to *really* screw over APAC customers (instead of the start or end of the week)

Isn't there a save game editor that was one floating around the internet, where you can change various things in your game? Might want to do a google search for it. It might be possible to change your LS/DS value to either extreme that allows you to play that last bit of background story then.

Not sure if this is what you had in mind Added them to the original thread as well as updated the first post of this thread (because experience has taught us that people are lazy buggers and two links are on too many to have to click)

How's the interface on iOs? I tried to replay Kotor1 (steam version), but the UI is just too horrible. Still stuck on Taris and I doubt I'm ever going to leave At least I got to finish the Kotor2 Steam version with the TSLRC mod.
