taks Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 well, there's a point where it can be overkill, that's for sure. finding an artifact level magic item in a barrel, or decent magic on a rat certainly qualifies as such. i'm referring more to an overall high loot level, but matching it to the challenge. even the DM guide for the amount of loot you get per level is relatively high. the BGs were, in general, loot-heavy, but that was also a function of how you played the game. i scoured everything once i figured out there was much more than just the main story, and certainly it turned into monte-haul. also, you can always dump stuff if you want to play low-level magic. taks comrade taks... just because.
Lyric Suite Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 LOL Where all the people who whined about the 'ph@tlewt' in NWN1? LOL <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Right here. Phath l00t is gay...
Volourn Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 "finding an artifact level magic item in a barrel, or decent magic on a rat certainly qualifies as such." Then it's a good thing that enver happened in NWN1. " DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.

A long, long time ago, but I can still remember, How the Trolling used to make me smile. And I knew if I had my chance, I could egg on a few Trolls to "dance", And maybe we'd be happy for a while. But then Krackhead left and so did Klown; Volo and Turnip were banned, Mystake got run out o' town. Bad news on the Front Page, BIOweenia said goodbye in a heated rage. I can't remember if I cried When I heard that TORN was recently fried, But sadness touched me deep inside, The day...Black Isle died. For tarna, Visc, an' the rest o' the ol' Islanders that fell along the way

It could be the barbaric face without the tats, though.

Deraldin Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 Oh you developers are funny guys. Real good sense of humour in here. I just love whoever it was that decided to put 80 billion thieves with sneak attack in every area.

Joseph Bulock Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 Oh you developers are funny guys. Real good sense of humour in here. I just love whoever it was that decided to put 80 billion thieves with sneak attack in every area. I can't think of too many areas that have large numbers of rogues in them, besides the bandit camp and a few of the thief areas of Neverwinter , both of which make a lot of sense to have a bunch of sneaky people in them...

Spider Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 I (thanks to Kaftan inspiring me to try) managed to find a dealer willing to seel me the game a day early. And so far it's been fantastic. A few camera bugs, but other than that I am loving every second of it. Haven't gotten that far though. I really enjoyed the tutorial, second to VtM Bloodlines easily the best tutorial I've played. I have one major gripe though. Having a patch that requires 5GB free HD space for a 90MB patch to install seems kinda stupid. It means I had to uninstall the game from my Raptor and reinstall it on a much slower HD. Thankfully loading times are good for the most part so it's not a huge deal, but still annoying.
Haitoku Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 Hurray, now I'm crashing when I travel on the world map.
deganawida Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 Okay, here we go. Started up enough to make these (and create a Photobucket account). Pre-Ravel TNO. Post-Ravel TNO (minus grey skin and scars). They aren't perfect, but the resemblance to mind of the opening movie is uncanny.
Pidesco Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 I don't think they resemble TNO all that much. But thanks anyway, old and wise poster.

Made you feel like you were part of the village. Hades was the life of the party. RIP You'll be missed.
Volourn Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 That doesn't like TNO at all to me. Sorry, Dags. As for the tutorial. It was good for what it was. What i find funny is that it was pretty much set up exactly like NWN1 in order to test various aspects of the skills needed for the game?> btw, Where's Sand to whine about the fact you gain two levels during the turtorial/prologue? R00fles! DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.
Haitoku Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 Man, I really want to just sit down and play the game. But it seem like every time I manage to set it up so it's actually playable, something else goes wrong! Vague spoilers: I get it set up so it's running at 30+ FPS outside... I finish the little town battle segment, head over to the swap. I get through that, stability is high. Then I enter the ruins and my FPS hit the slide show numbers again. I drop them yet again to nearly the bare minimal, still only getting roughly 30 FPS. Finally get through that, then I hit the world map and it crashes every time I travel. Just wonderful.
Pidesco Posted November 3, 2006 Posted November 3, 2006 btw, Where's Sand to whine about the fact you gain two levels during the turtorial/prologue? R00fles! He's having a PnP session.

J.E. Sawyer Posted November 3, 2006 Posted November 3, 2006 That's very strange. Normally performance in the ruins is much higher than in the exterior. Hmm. Sorry I don't have any good tips on how to change that. twitter tyme
