Musopticon?

I've been trying to. For years actually. Lack of credit card really thins the available options.

Oh, I don't have ToB.

Great name. Seriously.

So, I had this idea of replaying most of my older rpgs, and now it's time for SoA. I have yet to finish BG 1, but as I'm lacking Tales of the Sword Coast, I'd rather just jump straight to BG 2, which I still love quite a bit. Anyway, I've heard that there's a multitude of mods, some enhancing the experience, some being almost a "restoration project" for the game. So what mods would you recommend I take? I'd rather play the game with the original NPCs first however, so no need to recommend the much fabled fan-NPCs. Than another thing, do I need a thief in my party? Last time I played, I felt bad about having no slots for Edwinm because I needed Imoen for picking locks and circumventing the traps. Is a thief necessary?

You know what; I don't believe you. Islam just hasn't been an endless storm of fundies and war ever since Saladin. Heck, I'll just leave it at that. I got into an argument, I knew I wasn't going to win. I hope I have restraint next time. Or choose an opponent better. And I really hate that smilie, but I'll let is slide this time. Edit: Okay, it feels quite a bit better now. :D

No. Forget the canon crap.

A Sagan om Ringen -fanboy of the higher calibre. Reader of Sindar, Performer of Many Faps over Undomiel. The Fanatic. Is that clearer?

What?

"Equilibrium" rocks! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Sure as hell it does. Bateman amazing in 'Begins, and he didn't fail in this movie either. The fights were also top notch, and I can't but admire a movie with so much intertextuality and a funky dystopia. :cool:

Considering I have no experience of e-fights(or e-pawnings, as is the case here), I'd say that this is a nice start, brother chaplain ^_^

"explain THIS, now" Alright. Having no personal experience of it; my judgement was wrong. At least by your call. Edit: Now answer this: Are you THE infamous Yrkoon? The one they titled as Foamer. Most rabid flamer and argumentoid ever in the net, And if so; can I get an autograph?

Well, okay, I was wrong on the soviets. maybe they weren't such a big issue. But islam wasn't always the crap it's today. Muslims maybe easily led, but they didn't agree on the iron leash which rested on their necks, and now that the opression is nostly gone. There'll be change, but it must happen on their call, not ours. Ehmm, what has Pakistan/India have to do with this? Isn't the political situation and history quite a bit different there? And please, have I somehow offended you Yrkoon? Ease up a bit. Edit: Did a bit of reading, and noticed how lost I am. The fundamentalism and living strictly by the Sharia was adopted as the main movement of islam way back during about the 17th and 18th century, predating the fall of Ottoman empire. I need to read my history better. That doesn't change my point^ a bit, however.

I'm not very good at this, am I? :"> Yes, Afganistan would be a better example.

Me too, ever since I saw the swedish/finnish musical in Svenska Teatern in Helsinki which was titled so. Was quite good, but of course I was a horrible fan back then.

Oh, and I will not start an argument. Too bothersome, just throwing rocks to the pond.

Just saw Equilibrium, starring Bateman. Freakin' awesome.

Hmm, I recently had a talk with both my religion teacher(a lutherian military priest) and my dad(an atheist, who worked in one of the most islamic countries, Libya, for over 8 years) and they both agreed that Iraq just isn't ready for western political reign or a capitalistic democracy. When islam took a turn for the worse after the soviets, much of what was a very rich tribal culture was lost to fundies and religious sects, who sadly became the governing force in most of the islamic nations. Best way to say it, would be that when the culture diminished, it left a void that was filled with violence and constant warring for power, Jihad. You see, it's not the islam that commands the Jihad, but errors in the way the religious logos is read. Couple that with the ravage that was left behind by soviets and the Gulf and you see where the problem stems from. Anyway, back to today, the Iraq now is fed up with oppression, but while Americans did end Saddam, they don't understand that the iraqis don't want another reign. They're slowly getting back what was lost when the land was ravaged, but they want to do it their own way. By the muslim law. Now, you might point out how well the western system works when it's compared with theirs. True, the Middle-East and Islam never faced renaissance, or reformation which would have paved the way to democracy, but the main point is that they see Americans as just a new ruler. It's their land, now more than maybe ever, and while they may have a rather brutal way to solve who is the boss(and that's a part of the culture too), they're not ready for democracy yet. And think it like this, what if Americans would stay in the country? There'd soon be a ruling class of western educated locals, who the normal peeps and religious leaders don't trust. Then it would be the same as with Africa. Wanna repeat Kongo? Neither do I. Let the iraqis discover their strength and choose their leaders in their own way. Edited for typoes and some coherency.

Listen, braindead, who asked for your opinion, anyway? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Please meta, not in front of the children. You're the authority figure and our final stand when it comes to quality posters. Don't sink, please.

Ban?

And you might try System Shock 2. It's an rpg-light. with some interesting concepts. Some people call it an fps, but that's just bullcrap. Same thing with Deus Ex; a must play.
