Judge Hades Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 *shoots Ramza in the head for not liking PS:T* What was that?
Haitoku Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 Not really. Considering you're a big BG fan, I think you'll find Morrowind seriously lacking. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Is Oblivion what I am looking for, or will I find it boring from the first quest, or after completing a few quests? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hard to say... The main storyline is pretty weak, not to mention that fact that you are given zero chance to actually role-play (you are limited to one responce most of the time). It's fun for awhile to mess around with the character creation (until you realize just how limited you really are thanks to the level-scaling) and explore the world and enjoy all the pretty visuals. The thing I absolutely hated was how everything you do outside of the main story plays such a little role... It's something like GTA3. You can murder and steal, build up a huge bounty but in the end you are still X guy according to the story. Pretty crappy for an RPG to have such a system.
astr0creep Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 Ramza... Did you try KotOR 2? http://entertainmentandbeyond.blogspot.com/
ramza Posted June 9, 2006 Author Posted June 9, 2006 Actually, my pc is not powerful enough to play the KOTOR games. I have played KOTOR 1 on a friend's pc, though. Anyway, I planned to buy a new computer, so I wondered which high-spec games I could get along with it. "Ooo, squirrels, Boo! I know I saw them! Quick, throw nuts!" -Minsc "I am a well-known racist in the Realms! Elves? Dwarves? Ha! Kill'em all!

Judge Hades Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 High spec? My computer isn't high spec and does just fine with KotOR and Oblivion.
astr0creep Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 It's on XBox also... http://entertainmentandbeyond.blogspot.com/

Haitoku Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 High spec? My computer isn't high spec and does just fine with KotOR and Oblivion. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> To be fair, don't you consider 15 FPS "Fine"?

Pidesco Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 And what do you think of Squall's limit break (renzokuken, I think) in FFVIII? Kinda sounds like "clean the manly bit". "My hovercraft is full of eels!" - Hungarian tourist I am Dan Quayle of the Romans. I want to tattoo a map of the Netherlands on my nether lands. Heja Sverige!! Everyone should cuffawkle more.

Judge Hades Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 To be fair, don't you consider 15 FPS "Fine"? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Um... yeah.
Judge Hades Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 Are you saying that my P4 1.8Ghz 512MbRAM with Radeon 9600128Mb can run Oblivion? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well, yeah, but you would probably want to use the Olbblivion mod. It downgrades the Shader requirements to 1.1 without a severe hurt in game graphics.

Nearly bottom of the line. Don't tell me you are using a Pentium 133?!?!?!? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hell no! My computer is not that bad! But I don't consider it to be good since it can't even play KOTOR 1, which is an old game by today's standards. For your information, it's a Pentium Centrino, 50GB HD, 1,70GHz, 504 MB RAM, and I don't know about the graphics card. Since it's an IBM thinkpad (R50e series), I guess I have an IBM integrated one.

Judge Hades Posted June 9, 2006 Posted June 9, 2006 It is more than likely a Intel integrated graphics system that uses shared RAM. What you need is a real desktop computer.
ramza Posted June 9, 2006 Author Posted June 9, 2006 (edited) My dad bought me, last summer, a new desktop computer but it turned out to be crappy as hell. I don't even know where he got it from, but he didn't pay much for it. It's a pentium 4 with only 5GB of HD!!!! Can you believe that? The graphics card must be crappy too. I almost managed to play Kotor 1 with it but it seemed that I couldn't meet one (and only one! :'( *damn you*) requirement. I don't even remember what it was. There was almost no space left in the HD, so I uninstalled it. I then installed a few other games, and after completing them, I wanted to give another shot with Kotor. So I uninstalled them, tried to install Kotor and this stupid machine told me that I didn't have enough space for that! I tried to remove all the files and folders from my previous games, but for nothing. It seems that my HD's capacity was reduced to 3.5 GB. I really hate technology!!!!!
