  1. Wait till you meet the Werewolf, he's bloody awesome.
  2. Thanks Mesh. And thanks Pide, hehheh.
  3. You're not part of the demographic, sadly. Sex change and being a complete wuss are unfortunately needed. Which I found out the hard way. Edit: I'm currently reading the Fritz Lieber's Second Book of Lankhmar, a collection of the later Gray Mouser stories. It's not as light-hearted and adventurous as the First Book, but the writing on the other hand is quite a bit more solid and the characters have actually matured, which isn't something you can find often in swords and sorcery novels. Fafhrd is seriously one of my favorite characters, ever. It's true that Lieber has interposed features on the characters that are not exactly believable in the late medieval scope of things, but that's just what makes them so spellbinding. It's like Mouser and Fahrd look and comment on things beyond the focalizer of main characters, in a way they criticize Lieber himself and the genre. It's a bit immersion-breaking, needs a bit of suspension of disbelief, but escapism isn't something I'm looking for anyway. I love how the writer can be ironic and still carry the story forward, without seeming out of place.
  4. Where did you get the Polish voice-overs?
  5. *ewoks attack, plan fails*
  6. I so want a place named this now.
  7. Present- and postcognitivity as well. The name was probably derived from the game's rpg roots, where it was used mostly for spells that gave omniscience(or near enough). By the by, why isn't this thread locked yet? It's breaking a couple of rules and isn't really relevant either, not anymore.
  8. I bought some cds and just hang around to gather some strength for my South-Karelian odyssey tomorrow. Ugh, 4 days of nothing but party-going and train trips.
  9. These gentlemen have read their Poe and Derleth. Always a pleasure. They are quite funny as well.
  10. Well, now that you mention it, I wouldn't have minded to have born into a Swedish-held Pomeranian estate on the continent, living off the lap of luxury in a Bernadottic Empire. Imagine what could have been done, had you just trusted us enough to not fail so utterly after Pultava.
  11. That's it. I'm gonna play as Denmark and annex every Swedish colony I come across.
  12. I agree, an Ancient setting would have been preferable, for instance China, or Japan again, but Colonialism is an interesting period as well.
  13. Technically, you gave enough of a damn to reply.
  14. Technically, you are unintentionally funny.
  15. Cool, what is Morning's Wrath? I've never heard of it.
  16. Thanks, that was grand.
  17. imo skip I watched the first 15 minutes and then watched some parts. Seemed like a smathering of mind**** seasoned with a hearty amount of anti-Americanism and complete with the good old "lol, jesus didn't exist"-hoobla. Well, maybe I'm not part of intended demographic. Then again, I doubt that video is the best place to look for eye-opening experiences for anyone.
  18. *high-fives Tale*
  19. Look up the word "exploitation" for lulz.
  20. Kuulostaa hyv
  21. Pretty much. I used Tali, Wrex and Liara mostly.
  22. Refrain(Songs inspired by...) was pretty decent. I had a listen a month ago. The others, well, I imagine some folks don't have to do car commercials to be able to afford their miso. EDISON - Make a bet
  23. The skill composition of the party is taken into account when doing anything skill-related. For instance, if you have no decrypt of your own, the game will use Tali's decryption value if you have her in your party. If you, however, have some points in the skill the game will look at who has the highest value in your party and use that, IIRC. You don't need to have any points in the skill, just take someone with it into your shore party. Same with hacking, etc.
  24. I figured that after I posted. The name just kinda jumped out at me since I'm currently reading Perdido Street Station. *high five* I'm about to finish the Greek campaign in Age of Mythology. It's a pretty neat RTS all things considered, definetly on par with Age 3. I just miss regicide a bit.
