jaguars4ever Posted December 23, 2007 Posted December 23, 2007 Just to be on the safe side, you better spoiler tag Gorth's JA2 message as well. He mentioned something about guns FFS!
Musopticon? Posted December 23, 2007 Posted December 23, 2007 zomg, teh travesty! kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears. I had to fight against blood thirsty wolves and rabid penguins to get my food. Those who were too weak to survive were sent to Sweden. It has made me the man I am today. A man who craves furry hentai. So let us go and embrace the rustling smells of unseen worlds
Jora Posted December 23, 2007 Posted December 23, 2007 I bought The Witcher and Mask of the Betrayer when they came out but haven't touched them for a month or two. Neither game really caught my interest. I mean, the story of MotB is really cool and I love the characters, but in the end the gameplay is little more than than your usual old hack and slash dungeon crawling with floor puzzles and occasional NPCs to talk to. It's like a non-linear Icewind Dale that has more role-playing but not the fantastic art direction or the smooth Infinity Engine. The Witcher? I kinda like it but hate the load times and didn't feel like playing it after watching the poorly-made opening cinematic of the first chapter (the one where the demon dogs attack the woman and the girl outside the city gates). The combat controls are unresponsive as well. More than half the time I don't know if I'm swinging my sword or not. The demo of Eschalon would have been disappointing if it wasn't exactly what I had been expecting: a simple old-school dungeon hack. If they are taking this route, I hope Basilisk will use something like Betrayal at Krondor as a model for their next game.
Tale Posted December 23, 2007 Posted December 23, 2007 Jak II just got really incredible towards the end. The game takes some things from Grand Theft Auto but now It's a bleeding warzone. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
Calax Posted December 23, 2007 Posted December 23, 2007 Its raiding day. I'm trying to head to ZA but its not looking good. Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition! Kevin Butler will awesome your face off.
SteveThaiBinh Posted December 23, 2007 Posted December 23, 2007 I agree with Mus? I've yet to get The Witcher and I saw nothing spoiling in that If you're approaching the end of chapter two (I think I'm near the end), then knowing whether a particular character lives or dies feels like a very big spoiler indeed. Maybe it won't seem so big after I get into the next chapter, I don't know. I appreciate that use of spoiler tags is a judgement call and there was no intention to spoil in this case, but it left me feeling very spoiled indeed. In any case, if everyone involved wants to continue to discuss the merits of my editing, let's do it via PM. "An electric puddle is not what I need right now." (Nina Kalenkov)

Dark_Raven Posted December 24, 2007 Posted December 24, 2007 This thread should be moved into spoilers. Wow what an idea! People are going to be talking about what game they are playing and most likely discuss the when and where's of the game itself, thus leading to spoilers. Hades was the life of the party. RIP You'll be missed.

Crazy kids, what will they think of next... Just because you're a bit thinner than your even fatter mum it doesn't mean you're in excellent physical shape, if you could fit through the door and view the normal people you'd notice that cheeseburger boy.

Tale Posted December 24, 2007 Posted December 24, 2007 Jak 3 now. Or I was, but I own a cat. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
Gambler Posted December 24, 2007 Posted December 24, 2007 Just finished Deus Ex. Just begun Anachnronox. Both are good, Deus Ex is _very_ good. Still can't bring myself to re-start playing Pathologic. The game is amazing, but playing it requires great deal of concentration. (Which wouldn't be a problem if not for the fact that I play games mostly when I'm too tired to do anything else.)
Tale Posted December 25, 2007 Posted December 25, 2007 I just beat Jak 3. So, this is the second series which I played all three games through straight. Xenosaga, now this. And I still have Daxter to play on the PSP. Overall, I'm wanting more of gameplay like this, so I may use some christmas money to get the Ratchet & Clank games. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
Xard Posted December 25, 2007 Posted December 25, 2007 (edited) Stupid bugs! Curtis in Vault City disappeared when I left area and came back when I remembered I hadn't found doll for him yet. So, I come back and get the doll behind Cassidy's bar but that kid is gone! >=( Without that kid I can't get wrench for Vic's daughter and she's the one who would give me the super repair kit. Skeeter would then give me fuel cell controller for it. In short: No car :'( Can I cheat that damn wrench for me somehow? Edited December 25, 2007 by Xard How can it be a no ob build. It has PROVEN effective. I dare you to show your builds and I will tear you apart in an arugment about how these builds will won them. - OverPowered Godzilla (OPG)
Istima Loke Posted December 25, 2007 Posted December 25, 2007 You can find a wrench in other places too. I think there is one in the Vault, in Vault City. I think therefore I am? Could be! Or is it really someone else Who only thinks he's me?

alanschu Posted December 26, 2007 Posted December 26, 2007 Just got the Burning Crusade for Christmas, so more WoW for me. Since the rest of my friends aren't so able to play at the moment, I am taking a break from questing and just doing copious amounts of PvP.
Tale Posted December 27, 2007 Posted December 27, 2007 My stupid cat won't let me play Daxter. I wish he'd get a job. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
Hurlshort Posted December 27, 2007 Posted December 27, 2007 I'm actually back to playing EQ2. They've done quite a bit to the game since I last played, and it looks dreamy on my new PC. I originally checked out Vanguard, which also looked great, but it was still a buggy mess and Sony's ads convinced me to try the new EQ2 expansion, which actually features all the old stuff. I'm also interested in this new card game they have inside the actual online world. I haven't tried it yet, but I've heard good stuff.

Now I've never played WoW, but even I know that that's pretty much the max level, no?

alanschu Posted December 27, 2007 Posted December 27, 2007 (edited) Some dude named Jeffbuhl tried ganking my friend and I (I'm level 49 rogue, she's level 50 paladin). He was ?? to both of us, but with only a normal mount, so he couldn't have been too high. When we first saw him we waved and he waved back, the typical non-hostile gesture. Then once we started fighting tar beasts, he stealthed and came and killed us. Big man! So, then he decided to corpse camp the living crap out of us as well. We finally just outwaited him after he killed us a few times more (we got him once though!!). So, we're busy killing dinosaurs, then I see him and I scream to my friend "Our Friend is back our friend is back!!" I quickly stealth, and he sees her and goes and attacks her. I cheapshot him, and do my best to stunlock. She gets off her bubble just in time before she dies, and we end up killing him. We quickly heal up and bandage and he respawns and runs right for her, so I stunlock him and we smack him around hardcore this time. He even tried sprinting away but unfortunately crippling poison prevented him from doing that!! Muahaha. Now we're both pretty low and health, and the graveyard isn't too far away, so we don't have much time. He respawns and we fight again. He is able to just get me as I Coldblood Eviscerate him for 890 damage, at which point my friend uses Holy Wrath and instantly kills him since he was low health. I quickly run back to my body and as I revive, I see my friend engaged in combat. She doesn't have her bubble, and he's kicking her butt pretty quick. I get off a cheap shot, then a Kidney shot to keep him stunned. My friend is inches away from death, so I decide to vanish, so I can get off another cheapshot once the kidney shot wears off. In the end, we killed him 4 times, and he got me once. The final time he respawned he sprinted away, running home to mommy. We figured he actually ran away to heal up so he wouldn't be at part health when we fought, and as we mounted up, we saw him trying to come after us. We figured we had had our fun, so we just carried on and returned to Marshal's Refuge. Yay us! Felt good to get him back 4 times after the punk decided he was cool enough to corpse camp people at least 11 levels lower than him.

Tale Posted December 28, 2007 Posted December 28, 2007 Not playing it now, but I just went out and adopted a PS3 and four games. Uncharted, Assassin's Creed, Resistance, and Ratchet & Clank Future. Expect to see them on my now playing posts soon. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."
