Voices? Do I hear voices again? Listen, me -- I exist and you are a phantom, a spectre, a poltergeist -- a figment of my imagination. ... because we all like nice, clever games like Dungeon Seige, AD&D, KotOR, NwN and Cthulu which have violence only when it is absolutely necessary ...

Haha okay Can't say I usually like his acting, but somehow he seems so very.. different from his usual self in Gladiator. Don't you agree? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'll agree to almost anything as long as I don't have to sit through another Master & Commander advert. (I nearly returned my special edition X-Men 1&2 set when I found that ad on the second movie ... and it was for the cinema release, too!) I thought the late Oliver Reed stole the movie, anyway. If you want to see a proper gladiator movie, the classic Spartacus (starring Kirk Douglas, 1960) is the definitive film.

Yep, to expand: I like the depth of interaction with the NPCs; the fact that there are responses that require / use abilities (Wisdom, Lore, etc) and dialogue choices have ramifications (alignment penalties), together with some of the most competent dialogue (as in real speech) I have had to read.

Hmm. Average salary in the UK is c.3k Euros, I guess. Though that doesn't really tell you much, as the regional deviations are quite large. Then again, I'm surprised our PS2s are not more; it isn't known as RipOff Britain for nothing... "

...and it used to say 1.3 posts per day, last week.

I was more cheesed off than anything. I could see the map points and I even went completely around the entire complex twice (clockwise and anticlockwise) looking for !secret! doors, with (obviously) no success. Not removing the map points demonstrated to my satisfaction that the game had not been completed for quality to my satisfaction. :D

Where's he come from Nose Planet? If mucus was Force vitality, this guy would kick Yoda's little green buttocks. When he wakes up he can smell the coffee .... in Brazil.

I agree, as long as it doesn't become too repetitive or predictable (read: clich

Edit: Well, as I'm not an expert on Derrida, lets examine what Freud might have said: A dream dictionary lists the meaning of turtle as: - Protection - Patience - Needing to build stable foundations before launching a project - Needing to ground yourself - Having the ability to adapt to circumstances - Somebody who withdraws easily, and tends to be defensive or sensitive All of which seem to be thematic of Sylvester Stallone's character in the Rocky movie.

... I've always wondered about the due diligence of patches ...

It is much much better once you pass the wookie (geez, that's just in the Taris undercity! You haven't even got to the Rancor beast! Or the mandatory Swoop race to win Bastila. You really should persevere ... KotOR -- about a dozen times KotOR2 - hmm, completely finished twice, but I started again once I got to the last planet on my first play-through (didn't like my PC), and I've done the beginning a few times and the end a few times and a lot of the middle planets a few times each. But I hate the ending sooo much I really get disheartened trying to play it through. And the beginning is sooooo long an linear.

Incorrect. :cool:

I think the standing order is to pay homage to the movie characters with out-right rip-offs in the games.

Sure, and the NwN OC had the second mod (SoU) start at level 8 (I think) and the third (HoU) start at 15, so it is not unheard of. Just based on current form I wouldn't be surprised if the pubishers/developers take the path of least effort ...

Yeah, I hear that. I would have liked a few extra colours, so that I could manage the lightsabers a bit better. It is very difficult to tell the difference between everyone's weapon when they all have one of three colours and everyone has two!

on your "My Controls" page it has some sort of record of your posting activity. Yours must be a blur ... :D

average salary? 150 euros? Are you saying that the average salary in Romania is 150 Euros? in what period? A week? Or, are you saying the average price of a PS2 is 150 euros?

Cards only awarded by moderators. (I guess it's zero tollerance at the moment, if a mod gets a bad report they would check the thread and your post and can you if they think you're bad.) But anyone could report a post as useful or relevant or good, too. Then this would count towards some sort of postivie score, or "level". Certainly would be a better system than just the post count. Baley, what's your average post time? :ph34r:

Added my feedback to appropriate forum at NWN Guide "Modules of Volournia": Playtester's Corner - Witcheta Chronicles 1: The Relic. There is not a hellavalot of combat at this stage, so it didn't really matter what level my character was (except wrt feats and abilities). I guess that will be added with the critical dialogue. Great stuff so far.

Well, not to be too simplistic, I would argue that the truth is closer to some sort of proportional ratio of edits : posts ... Maybe they should have a yellow/red card warning system, or a reward for good posts system. Get enough kudos and you are recognised as a worthwhile member.

I must admit it is one of the silliest concepts I have ever encountered. What is the rationale for "levelling up" a BB contributor? (Tapping into those of us with OCD; jonesing for more role-play... ) And what has your post count got to do with your contribution, except (generally) as an inverse proportion to the quality of the material posted?

I am already growing to hate the Wicheta family ... :angry:

Done.
