Because I know all of you are just dying to see it, trailer for the DA anime movie: (Buy tickets, get DLC items!)

"Gorpel Hind" certainly sounds like TSR.

That would kinda be missing the point, if the Ankheg armor is still statwise a +2 Plate Mail....

I prefer the Composite Longbow +1, which Fuiruim sells. It has thac0 +2 dam +3, while the markmanship bow has thac0 +3 dam +2. And yes, you could "join" the bandits in vanilla BG. By the way, how is Greylord using the Ankheg Plate Mail? I thought Archers were restricted to leather.

Oh, I guess I can be in the queue too. Since I can't be a hard-boiled Lizardman detective, I guess I'll be an Inquisitor.

Archers are just ridiculously powerful. At least you didn't make him an Elf.

I've been killed by a mudcrab.

Going for a specific Victory Type from the start is just much more effective than deciding later on. I have no problem with playing a random leader or map, but I will decide my strategy from turn 1.

I prefer Civ5. As for Civ4, Huyana Capac beats everyone for Science and Culture victories. Pure math, really. Other strong Financial civs do well too, like Elizabeth or Mansa Musa. As for Military victories, it's a bit more varied. Every Civ with a strong early-rush unit does well, like Persia or the Mongols. Rome is good as well, because of the Praetorian. I'm not sure who is the best overall, because I usually get too bored to play optimally in the latter parts of Military games; just too much stuff you have to do, even when the winner is clear.

Well, it is a leveled item. Unrelated, but: http://ps3.ign.com/articles/121/1214016p1.html

Really? I thought the College-line was a boring dungeon romp. Got really bored of Dwemer and Falmers. Thieves Guild has been the best, in my opinion, though I've yet to play the MQ or Dark Brotherhood.

I've been using a Storm Atronach for most of the game, and the only annoying part is when it runs away to shoot lightning from a distance, hence making all the enemies group up on me. I've almost maxed out Destruction, so I started playing support-mage. I just cast buffs, heals (for Lydia, of course) and summons.

I think it's impossible to setup a quick button for _two_ weapons (or two of anything really). You can either select both through the inventory, by using different mouse buttons. Or, when switching from a two-handed weapon to a one-handed weapon via the quick buttons, the game remembers what you had in the other hand (the one not tied to the quick button).

Too bad you can't team up with the Thalmor :/

Opponents stagger from power attacks quite often; normal attacks don't do much. The PC can also stagger, but the effect isn't that big I think. Enemies can definitely interrupt your power attacks though.

How did you get such a high %? It seems no matter what I do, my enchantments are always really weak. I'm still low level though, I guess I just need a really high skill, lots of perks, and better soul gems? As a side note, is there reason to wear armor on mages or not?

http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Gun_Runners%27_Arsenal It's nice enough. Adds more variety, mostly. Some of the stuff is really powerful, some really weak...

Anyone played with the Skilled -trait? Does it slow down levelling so you won't reach 50 halfway through?

A character stereotype in anime, and other Japanese nerd-stuff. It's a somewhat common term in anime fandom. More common among the Japanese, being a word in Japanese. And yeah, groups tend to develop their own terminology.

There was some talk the low metacritic score was a machination by 4chan, in response to some early bad rep DA2 got. I didn't dwell too much into it, though. Don't really care about reviews.

Mark of the Assassin came out earlier this week. Did anyone get a chance to play it? I'm too busy watching SC2 tournaments.

Are they going to be done with DLCs and patches soon? I'm looking to replay once the game is complete.

They also did Arrival for ME2. Yes, they're going to do it.

ME2 squad members weren't really very interactive outside of their specific missions. DA2 took a different route; the companions take part in conversations the whole game and have an effect on the outcomes. Sooo... they probably don't want to make a new NPC that isn't as interactive as the rest, and they don't want to put the resources in to make a full new NPC in this DLC. That's my read of the situation, anyway.

So... is she? I don't think we even know if she can be used outside the DLC quest.
