  1. Console plebians vs PC Master Race? Fallout 1 vs Fallout 2 vs Fallout 3? Eastern European Communism vs The World? Romance Fans vs Non-Romance Fans? Turn Based vs Real Time? EA or Microsoft vs Gamers?
  2. Vesperia was only okay (IMO). Tales of Graces f I really liked though.
  3. What!? How can anyone dislike Anna Torv? Not the actress, the character. Olivia. No real opinion on the actress as I've seen her in a grand totality of one episode of a television show I didn't like.
  4. At one point, the more time spent under the sun, his power accumulates. Ergo he's stronger at 30 years under a yellow sun than at 20 years. So its not a one-to-one relation in that sense anymore (although probably not a geometric increase either). (Mind you he's ****ing Superman - he actually traveled forward in time past the death of the universe via collapse into the next universe created by the new big bang and then kept travelling until he got back to 20th Century earth where he picked back up as if he never left because the next universe ended up being exactly the same as the last one).
  5. I'd be interested; of course I'd be more interested once I'm more familiar with how PE will be in the game. But I like PnP stuff too.
  6. I never played anything past 3. I hated 3 that much. Ditto with the BoF series. YMMV. I know plenty of people who enjoyed Suikoden 3.
  7. I thought this was going to be a "who'd win, Internet or Debates" topic. I was disapoint. I think who'd win stuff is fun if its not taken seriously. Sadly too many people take it seriously. I remember the lengthy Superman vs Goku from DBZ debate in the old usenet rec.arts.comics.* hierarchy (which also included pretty much Goku vs everyone, but usually Superman). Too many people were invested in proving that Goku or Superman would win.
  8. I became "a dolt". It was (nearly) phonetically the same, and easier to achieve.
  9. The only time I reloaded was when the character got chunked (or if it was very early and paying for a spell was beyond my means).
  10. No I hated it. I disliked all the "playable" characters, I hated the story, I hated how it didn't feel at all like the first two games. It wasn't, IMO, even in the same league as the original two games (which I loved and played many times).
  11. You'll get over it when you're 4 days and 1 year from being 40.
  12. Personally I hated the first episode, and disliked the main female lead. So didn't watch beyond that.
  13. The plot really hasn't been revealed, but from what I've pieced together (and this is an estimated guess), Riddick is betrayed by the Necromongers and dumped on the planet and left for dead. Karl Urban's Vaako is rumored to be in the new film, so I'd suggest his death in CHRONICLES was a subterfuge and he's behind it. Why the new set of mercenaries come after Riddick and who is behind them is a mystery.
  14. Huh...I never saved before using the Lum machine.
  15. Breath of Fire was dead to me after the third game (as was Suikoden, now that I think about it). Anyhow, I liked the last Tales game enough that my interest is high for Xillia.
  16. Yeah that looks right Ah...never chose that option there. What i don't like about this is that can become a cop out. " oh, a gate to the fade is open and we need the mages help to close it and templars to fight the demons. Let's unite and fight the archdemon Flemeth the BIGBAD. The templar-mage war was the only element in any Bioware game in the last decade with no clear black and white solution, and i was curious how Bioware would deal with it. Does seem like its an easy way to get out of that conflict; hopefully it won't be used as such.
  17. Eh? I am talking about the desire demons, they can be hot. You even have the option to have sex with one in DA:O I don't remember anything like that in DA:O. Possibly I missed it because I wasn't seeking such, but...
  18. Didn't all the abominations look the same in DA:O? Melty-faced?
  19. zeh-DIG-eve gill-ex would be my wild stab in the dark. Hmmm, wrote fark instead, not sure what that means. Ultimately with regards to the constructed language, I think as long as the terminology doesn't go overboard (as in the old Planescape setting warning of going overboard with cant slang) so that the context is understood I'm okay. I don't worry about pronunciation that much personally (one of my first jobs involved calling people's names out - you kind of get over mispronouncing things quickly). Lol, no no no... it's pronounced exactly how it looks! That's how it looked to me! Unlike Raymond Luxury Yacht, which is pronounced "Throat Warbler Mangrove".
  20. I think the idea - at least as I get it - is that this is a "doorway opened to the Fade in the Sky" as opposed to "magicians calling demons forth from the fade" or "mages being possessed by demons from the fade" which was the whole reason mages were feared and such.
  21. Maybe make a push for Laywer RPGs. Ace Attorney RPG Skill tree: Opening Arguments / \ Objection Closing Arguments / \ Take That Investigative Intuition / \ Dramatic Flair Streetwise / \ / \ Witness Badgering Stall Tactics Security Bypass Duping I'm in if it'll allow me to (re)create Perry Mason. Lt. Tragg: I don't need an autopsy to tag this one. It screams murder. Perry Mason: When it stops screaming and starts following the rules of evidence, I'll start listening. Lt. Tragg: My, we're very legal this morning. Perry Mason: Two pawn tickets- one she hides in the label of a mink coat, the other ticket stays in her purse where anybody might find it. It's inconsistent. Paul Drake: She's a woman. Perry Mason: Nah, that's no excuse. Perry Mason: Could Jasper have killed Callendar? Paul Drake: Perry, he was only in there ten seconds. Perry Mason: How long does it take to stick a sword in a man?
  22. The correct answer was 'To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women'. Either that or, 'When some wild-eyed, eight-foot-tall maniac grabs your neck, taps the back of your favorite head up against the barroom wall, looks you crooked in the eye, and asks you if you paid your dues; you just stare that big sucker right back in the eye, and you remember what ol' Jack Burton always says at a time like that: "Have you paid your dues, Jack? Yessir, the check is in the mail." '
  23. Wow, that gag went awkward fast...
  24. Hmmm, I'd be afraid an "Inspector Morse" episode would break out if I was at the Randolph (cf. The Jewel That Was Ours / The Wolvercote Tongue).
