  1. Payuntio, thanks for your report. Could you provide any information listed here - https://forums.obsidian.net/topic/86274-reporting-issues-useful-information-to-provide/ - so those who can perhaps hel will have as much information as possible to find the issue? General (For all issues) What device type are you on? Android/iPad, etc. What version of the OS are you running? Android 4.4, iOS 9.3, etc. What model is the device? Galaxy Tab 3, iPad Mini 4, etc. What is your PFID#? (Located in the settings menu) Gameplay Is pass & play on? Is permadeath on? Tutorial, Story Mode, or Quest Mode? (If not quest mode, did you recently enter it?) Characters in Party Location of each character Turn Order Scenario & Scenario Difficulty. If on non-normal difficulties, which wildcard powers are in play? What card was encountered when the issue occurred? (Or check, or card just played, etc) Did the issue occur on the first explore or a subsequent explore? If subsequent, what card did you last encounter? What was its resolution? (IE, you just encountered an enchanter and failed the check, and on an additional explore you ran into a blessing of the gods but didn't auto acquire it) Did other characters aid the check? What did they use to aid it? Was the encounter a Horde? (Skeleton Horde, Goblin Raid, Zombie Nest, Zombie Horde, Garrison Location Power w/ multiple characters, Henchmen encounter in Black Fang w/ multiple characters)
  2. Moved to the P&P Forum. Hopefully a Pathfinder RPG player can help. Sadly I've only ever flipped through the books. If you think this move was in error, pm me.
  3. The Adele Blanc-Sec film got a USA release from Shout Factory in 2013. https://www.shoutfactory.com/film/action-adventure/the-extraordinary-adventures-of-adele-blanc-sec
  4. "Listen, this old system of yours could be on fire and I couldn't even turn on the kitchen tap without filling out a 27b/6..." nope, before or after my time, I'm afraid.
  5. Thanks for the welcome. Although I know secretly everyone is happy that now I can't go into my 'back when I was a mod' routine anymore.
  6. Awww man. RIP Robert Vaughn

    To me voice acting is a tool in the toolshed. Its neither good nor bad in itself (nor is lengthy descriptive text), its all about what the game is and how its implemented.
  8. Yeah, I enjoy LoT a lot, but its a terrible show in most respects. And yet they keep coming up with funny instances that make it worth watching. Stein's fear of zombies last episode, Heatwave's reaction to pretty much everything in the 80s this episode...the line about Ray being able to science anything was lol funny.
  9. DeHaan is 30; however I think people these days tend to look younger in their 30s than they did in the 60s-70s.
  10. The general complaints I've heard are - *National standards take away states rights and states control *One size fits all standards don't allow room for adjustments to classroom demographics *National standards places even more standardized testing in the path of over-tested students. *Does nothing to address the incentives to move students on regardless of achtievement *Common core standards weren't tested in the classroom before implementation. *Common core relies on rote learning methods and doesn't allow room for creativity. *emphasis on certain subjects leaves little room for the arts or computer science in the curriiculum *textbooks will most likely be aimed at two largest school markets (texas, California) leaving no room for inclusion of local history or authors
  11. She recovers from the phone booth pretty well and I think defends herself in the diner well. Always bugged me that Annie got killed off screen, to be honest, given that she seemed pretty savvy and aware of what's going on. Her dearh seemed to warrant a better justification. As for kid actors, Veronica Cartwright was one of the better ones (and ~15 years later would do well in INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS and ALIEN...)
  12. I've done it everytime I've done ME1 on console, which was quite a few. Then again, I'm one of those guys who tried to completely mow the fog of war in the IE games, and the copy-pasting content in DA2 didn't bother me, so I may just have a high tolerance level for the flaws in the MAKO implementation.
  13. It was the best thing in Lionheart too...
  14. I've never got the hate the Mako explorations got. Then again, everytime I played ME1 and was in the MAKO I kept humming the Moon Patrol theme to myself...so maybe that's it?
  15. I think it is fair to point out, it'd be impossible to prove the emails were fake.
  16. Arguably its a product of its time (or perhaps, more simply, a product of the time that Hitch**** was from; he was born at the tail end of the Victorian era after all). That said I'm not sure how "strong" Melanie is supposed to be - she starts the movie as an irresponsible, prank-loving socialite who hasn't really dealt with any serious problems. That said, she does pretty well for herself (getting through the attack at the school and the attack at the diner). Its only after she gets attacked at the home (where she's left with the birds for an unknown amount of time) that she goes into shock (as an aside, Hedren, under the strain of an overworked shooting schedule and Hitch**** using (and having crew throw) live birds at her for the final attack, collapsed and was wisely given a week off to rest and recover; I've always wondered if it effected the end scene at all). While they all have moments of fear, I'd argue that Melanie, Lydia, Cathy and Annie all deal with the situation about as well as Mitch does.
  17. Maybe she's being nice so she can axe-murder him? Still, I'm mostly curious what the euphamistic "cooking my dog" is. The imagination boggles.

    And they still did a second movie and short lived TV show after that... But I imagine that they'd be happy with 4-5 seasons, to be honest.
  19. Ah, somehow the Criterion Blu ray passed me by....
  20. Curious as to which version you watched, Bartimaeus? There's a 142 minute, a 132 minute, and a 94 minute cut of the film. Notoriously meddled with back in the day by Embassy International and Universal (I think the 132 min version is the only one out on Blu).
  21. Amentep replied to ktchong's topic in Way Off-Topic
    I'll watch it eventually when I'm able. Its been on my "want to watch" list since it was announced (huge fan of the original movie).
  22. There are 4 current zombie TV shows I can think of off the top of my head (and excluding Ash vs The Evil Dead since Deadites are really their own thing) - Walking Dead Fear the Walking Dead iZombie ZNation There were, I think, 14 zombie movies released last year; this year TRAIN TO BUSAN has almost made $100 million worldwide. Besides the last RE installment, there's still plans to do World War Z 2. Doesn't seem dead to me...
  23. InXile (Hunted: The Demon Forge), Behaviour Interactive aka Artificial Mind & Movement (WET), Mad Doc Software (Star Trek, bought by Rockstar), Headfirst (Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth, went bankrupt)? InXile's already on the list after Obsid. Couldn't forget Brian, after all, especially in a thread started by his arch nemesis. If I only missed three I'm pretty pleased, though I should have had remembered Mad Doc since I knew a couple of people who worked there from Looking Glass/ Irrational. Can't see how I missed that you had InXile there since it was the first one I looked for.

  25. In other news, Romero tell kids to "get off my lawn". I kid, I kid; Romero's entitled to his opinion, and its got to be a bitter pill to swallow to see the obvious descendants of your work transcend same. But if all the really lousy zombie pictures (and good ones) that plagued the drive-in and multiplex in the wake of NotLD didn't kill zombies, its highly doubtful any new iteration will. The sub-genre might take a sabbatical, but it won't be dead-dead.
