Battle of the New Atheism
I was going to write something like "oh, so now atheism has martyrs, a strong braintrust to preach their belief(since what else it is?) and their cause is against an old-fashioned and conservative system of belief. Gee, just like back in 40 AD.", but I realised how stupid that would be. What's the use? I have no argument to or for, since I still sorta think myself as a fairly liberal believer. And why fight over the internet anyway? Really, the language barrier isn't helping either. So, all you are going to get from me is a question(s): Consider that I'm a believer, yet I don't really take the bible seriously, Enuma-Elish is abut as believable as it, I also don't view the old-fashioned and fairly high-horse church system as all that good. I still believe in god(s ), an entity that's good and poweful and watchful. Freud would probably tell that I'm lost without a daddy. :D So, how does the New Atheism profile me, what should I do and and how?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}> For me, this is the single thing that's a fact, others are fairly moot. Yet, it is enough that the fora should be kept there.

Dark Messiah Of Might And Magic
I doubt you should call this an action-rpg anyway. More like fantasy FPS.

Hahhah, they were just signed up with the American Vendlus records and so their work isn't mixed and recorded all that well yet. The Mist doesn't have anything out besides the demo records. The guitars drown the voice out, which is why it doesn't get so high grades from me, but from what I hear, she sings in English.

Next Obsidian Game-Apocalyptic?
HL2 is an excellent example. The world hasn't gone to hell yet, but will pretty soon do.

Sounds like a bunch of hippies to me. They probably make music in between hacky-sack sessions. So, are they some kind of Grateful Dead cover band? Whiskeytown - Losering <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Pfffft. http://www.tmatmd.com/

Happy Birthday Kor Qel Droma!!!
I'd totally link you with music, but you wouldn't exactly like it, I guess. So, a "happy birthday" will have to do. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

And language is a tool that needs less raping. Edit: By the by, the old prophets probably were mad as heck and rather epileptic, if they had visions.

Next Obsidian Game-Apocalyptic?
Apocalyptic can also mean just a looming sense of foreboding and the feeling of all deteriorating and going to hell. Or the exact opposite. For example, Alpha Centauri was pretty apocalyptic, finding a new purpose for teh human race, attaining new being and perhaps even godhood.
