  1. I never thought that there was a base in folklore for the whole hollow thing. I did notice swastika in Ichigo's Zangetsu, but didn't realise the buddhist roots ran deeper. Serves me right for constantly underestimating Tite Kubo.
  2. Yes, it is. Mael Mordha - Atlas of Sorrow
  3. Seriously. I mean, come one. Worst necro ever.
  4. You mean, "multitasking"? I chose the Jedi option. Simply because the bad guy options are often lacking and dull. Sure, you can cause a lot of death, but that goes for Jedi as well and you also get the more developed dialogue paths.
  5. I have a shirt with a dragon design on it. It's a cotton t-shirt though.
  6. The Kinks - Love you
  7. You tended to die a lot in Fallout 2, but, just like Deraldin wrote, it wasn't due to combat complexity or challenging enemies, but chance. You could even save during every turn and play for critical hits and critical enemy misses if you wanted. It wasn't possible in the BGs. There, the only minus was overbuffing, every combat was easy if you just prepared long enough. On the other hand this was just how it was supposed to be in a crpg, but on one hand every major battle was simply a case of using every stacking and non-stacking buff spell and ability in your hands and then destroing enemy abjurations layer by layer and beating them to death. Not exactly tactical or hard, but better than waiting for a critical hit, brrrr... *remembers Wadamingo mines* Most difficult combat(in a crpg) so far has been IWD 2 with it's clever enemy placement and challenging enemy enviroment use and Arcanum for overwhelming masses of summonables and different combat system. Let's not even go to console rpgs, I don't want to remember Final Fantasy Tacti...aaarhggghh!!!1...or Tales of Phanta...mffff *whimper*
  8. Right, it's good that we have established where you stand on this issue. Further reports will follow.
  9. So, you haven't,
  10. Do you put your excess shirt into your pants, Ron? I've never understood why people stick their long t-shirts into their pants, they're not dressing in a suit when that would be proper and during summer the sweatlines on their shirts look rather crass. And having a t-shirt is all about wearing light clothing, not sinking in the heat and playing oven between your jeans and your shirt. I do think the next president should adress this issue of failed dressing. It's most distressing.
  11. Ever been to DevArt slugsie? You'd love it. Preggo, shota yaoi, furry, the works. And a subculture that not only approves but actually revels in it. Ugh. Watching galleries is like a playing visual Russian roulette with your irises as your brain and shounen-ai as bullets. Decent fun in small doses until you stare down a bullet and it's giving no mercy and asking none. That said, unlike 4chan, you tend to step on a lot creativity, among various squishy things that gurgle acidly and that you'd rather not scrape from your shoe with a stick lest they bite, in DevArt. Some of my favorite things are from there(no, no NGE fanworks, sorry) and the community is awesome if you dare to stick around. I tend to shake a stick(usually without squishy stuff) at people instead of talking to them properly though.
  12. Bananas are awesome. And I'm not even a monkey, much.
  13. Man, it's been a while since I've seen a obese European. And it's not like we are health obsessed, hardly. All of my friends love to eat(though one of them eats only chips and coffeine), but move so much around that fat is hardly gained. I lived in a folk high school for nine months and every meal was feast, if the food was low cal, the dessert wasn't and vice versa, and I gained weight, ten kilos or so. Now that it's over, I eat nothing near as much and started running out of the heck of it. I had forgotten how good a workout felt. That said, Finland has been a country that takes the health of their young very seriously ever since post war coma. We don't haven't had generations of youth that lack purpose in life besides watching tv for a while, actually ever, even though this and the last generation has often been associated as not having any ideals or desired, airheaded and generally a "lost generation". Heh, I guess you could say that once you learn to hate your parents, you don't hang around home enough to watch tv and get fat. All in all, we might differ a lot from elsewhere Europe, or "Them", but I think Europe is generally of the mind(with the exception of Britain, sorry guys) that fat is bad.
  14. NoMeansNo - The River Crazily good song.
  15. Try Battle Realms(from the makers of Republic: The Revolution), it has a similar system where you train peasants into warriors through an intricate school systems. You can mix and match different schools and dojos to create different types of soldiers. For example, throw a dojo graduate from a sword school into archery school and he becomes a versatile foot samurai. Give that foot samurai a horse(which you have to find and tend to, provide food and water) and he becomes a horse archer who also can fight in melee. And who(IIRC) can dismount. Or teach an archer at an alchemist shop and he becomes a gun-toting teppu bunshin, etc. Magic also plays a part.
  16. And if I want to be a fried-out hippy...?

  17. I understood that the game was easier than K1 and K1 was godawfully simple when it came to battles. Only thing that could be considered "decently challenging" was fighting Bendak Starkiller on level 2 as a Consular and the crass amount of droids in Starforge(if you actually fought them instead of running like a crazed maniac). Edit: This is coming from a person who has played games since -93 though. I don't pretend to be a veteran or anything, but after nearly a decade of roleplaying games, KotOR was pretty easy as it had the same combat concepts and I knew how to excel in them. In comparison, IWD 2 was crazily hard. BG was insane, even after you realised the bow strategy.

  20. You mean, your leg?

  23. Ease up, Tale. I ran around 5 kilometres in half an hour, so that would probably translate as 6 minutes/km and about 8 minutes/mile. That said, I my top speed is pretty fast and I could most likely do it in 7 or six and a half. Hav'ta try next time I run. Been going at good speed three times a week for 40 min for two months now and I'm seeing and especially feeling the results.
  24. Ok, I checked the website and I might have to buy my first Civ game ever.
