Gorth

It is notoriously buggy. Team Gizka (the guys doing the TSLRP project) has it among downloadable bugfixes on their website. On an unrelated sidenote, Also recommended is the "rebalancing" mod from the same place, which makes consulars suck at combat. You have to rely much more on force powers then As for making stimpacks... can't you break down grenades or mines for chemicals? I can't remember exactly, but I think there is one item you can create on the workbench and break down on the lab bench (and then make healing stuff from).

In the beginning was Gorth... (then came computers, arpanet, internet, forums, purposeless forum posts with purpose questions, purposeless posts answering purposeless questions in purposeless posts and the world was not the same again)

You get to play The Chosen One in a game with artistic direction by Gollum. It doesn't get any better than that, does it?

Sounds like sleep paralysis http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleep_paralysis Never experienced it, but it is alledgedly a very spooky experience.

Most people, even those mentioned in the report, can contribute with something good to society. Make them join the involuntary organ donor program

YA RLY! They do. There are days where I hate democracy more than others. Why can't people vote the way I want them to? Maybe I should have limited the options

Setting, background, fluff, characters etc. Not sure if all of them even have rulesets. Some of them do and would be continuation of stories, some of them don't and would probably be a first for a franchise.

An entire truckload of fun interesting npcs there.

A rather limited list for me. Never had a console and never got into the japanese made stuff. And if it is party members only: Annah (PS:T) Best tail on any NPC Morte (PS:T) I hated him and his smartass attitude. Thing is, I just couldn't really hate him. In the end, I even felt sorry for him. Dak'kon (PS:T) Once you get to *know* him, he is not so bad. Edwin (BG1+2) Korgan Bloodaxe (BG2) No nonsense take no crap dwarf. Xan (BG1) We are all doomed Neeshka (NWN2) Thats NEEsh ka. Emphasis on the Nee Kelgar (NWN2) The second only ever dwarf that I liked Kreia (Kotor2) I still haven't quite figured her out. I am probably going to see a lot more to her once the TSLRP finishes The golem you can create in the lab in IWD2: MUST PROTECT MASTER! I felt kind of sad that I couldn't take him with me for the rest of the game. List is subject to change tomorrow. And the day after tomorrow. And the day after... etc. Edit: Duh. Cut and paste error. Looking for a new candidate Edit2: Found a new candidate. Just ignore first edit

That would be like saying, the only obvious thing you could do with the D&D setting would be to make RTS games I don't know if you ever played any of the games which aren't about squad based combat (Rogue Trader, Necromunda or Inquisitor) or even better read any of the novels (Gaunts Ghosts, Eisenhorn trilogy, The Last Chancers or the Horus Heresy books). More material than you can shake a tentacle at.

I alwas thought Nar Shaddaa in Kotor2 was a good attempt, if a bit lacking in detail. But I am all with you on the WH40k stuff. Maybe would could create a Cult of Obsidian when the MMO takes off It would still be nice with a single player crpg though. The WH40k is the darkest, bleakest and most vicious setting I've seen for a game system.

Would have been my second choice if I could have made a "prioritised" poll Ever since playing a game called "Beneath a Steel Sky", I've wanted to play games in similar types of settings. Damn, how could I forget Icewind Dale? I even had an empty slot left in the poll

I've seen quite a few threads over time on the net, asking who would you like to work on a particular game? Just to turn question up side down a bit, I'll ask, which game would you like see a particular developer work on? I've excluded games known to be ether in production by Obsidian (Alien franchise) or others (Sellout - a Postnuclear Money Machine). Besides, I havent started a thread in ages, like an average of 3 each year or so I didn't add "FFS Why don't they do their own IP now?" either as I suspect their wallets aren't as big as Blizzard/Bethesda's yet. Edit: Oops, forgot to vote myself. I am dying to see a WH40K roleplaying game on my computer. Time to wrestle that license from THQ

Unless they aim it directly at Vesta and equip the craft with a large coil spring. Then it would make the trip back earth again in no time

Dark Raven really knows which buttons to push, doesn't she?

Only if you can prove that Eldar is still alive and not dead and buried somewhere in Cantousents basement Now excuse me, time to make the glass half empty

Whoa! In that case, it will soon be empty

Even if they make a nice shiny installer with all kinds of checks built into the install script, there will be people whining about the complexity and bugginess of the mod because they can't figure out how to properly agree to a license agreement, select install directory, press next a couple of times and then press "finish" (I would prefer a simple zip file, maybe with a patch file if any existing files needs their binaries modified, but thats besides the point, I'll gladly take what I am offered)

Nobody has convinced me that there is a glass yet. Once that has been done, we can talk about the purpose and current state of the glass.

Having fond memories of games like Archon I&II, Adventure Construction Set, Mail Order Monsters, Bards Tale I-III, Heart of Africa, Hard Hat Mack, M.U.L.E., Marble Madness, Neuromancer, Racing Destruction Set, Skyfox, Realm of Impossibility (one of my all time favourite games) and Battlechess. They also published a game called Wasteland, which I unfortunately never found in a store What have they done lately? Battlefields 1942. In New Zealand, they are also the distrubutors for a number of overseas companies. Kotor2 had an EA logo on the shrink wrap as well as an EA Direct contact card inside the box Edit: I haven't played them myself, but I've been told that there are people out there who likes Dungeon Keeper II, Max Payne, Medal of Honour, Freedom Force, 1503AD, Delta Force, System Shock 2, Sid Meiers Alpha Centauri and the Lord of the Rings games (I cheated and looked at a list of games for the last 4 years)

That would be all two of them Still, looks interesting. Might just sneak itself onto my "games I look forward to" list.

831 issues in total... how many bugs can you squeeze into one game? And it's 28 now.

Plus, you have to work so damn hard to get the invitation

Lets see (jogging memory), last Christmas, that meant buying myself a nice bottle of wine for dinner and then getting back to work, as a client had sent out a RFP to us and a few of our competitors More a nuisance than anything else. A couple of days off at a time of my own chosing would have been nice. I loved Christmas until I turned 8 (or 9 or thereabouts) when I realised that it was all about pushing as many units as possible over the counter and that businesses actually had Christmas as an important part of the annual revenue on their budgets. When I was 10, it was more fun trying to identify the different marketing mechanisms applied in order to try to convince me that "stuff is cool, you want stuff, you need stuff!" Yes, I was a cynical young man
