Shryke Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 yeah Edwin is pretty insanely good i remember one playthrough i had with me (fighter/mage), Nalia, Imoen, Edwin, Haer'dalis, and Jan was so crazily powerful when your mind works against you - fight back with substance abuse!
Oner Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 After ~1 year I could force myself to reinstall Thief: Deadly Shadows, and managed to get through the tutorial. Maybe in 5 years I'll actually finish it. Gaaaawwwd, there's no emote that can convey how much I hate sneaking. Still, a great game is a great game. NOT looking forward to the Cradle. Last time I spent 10 minutes in a room spinning around checking for zombies before picking a lock. And it still managed to hit me from behind, the patient bastard.

Oner Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 ATMOSPHERE, with capital letters man. And my only grudge with it is because of my impatience, which can be fixed with a good old blackjack and/or bow. (And no, I don't consider blackjacking to be proper sneaking.)

Sneaking/timing games are my Achilles heel. If you've got a game where it's ONLY viable to sneak, I'm NEVER going to play it. Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition! Kevin Butler will awesome your face off.

Back in the day, they said Thief 1 is impossible to beat with frontal assaults. I killed 3 guards simultaneously. When I was 12. So yeah..

I want teh kotor 3 Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 BlazBlue and Red Faction: Guerilla. BlazBlue is certainly the better of the two; its one of the best games I've played in a while. RF, on the other hand, is fairly meh- its good, but it has very little plot. I recently got around to playing Assassin's Creed (I've had for several months, but just never had time to play it). I wish I had played it earlier. I liked it. It was an interesting take on the open-world genre, except that it was good (technically Oblivion and FO3 were open-world too, but they were RPGs so I don't group them with GTA, etc.). The storyline made very little sense on the whole; the ending was very much a surprise, as it really had absolutely nothing to do with the rest of the game. I recommend it, though. In 7th grade, I teach the students how Chuck Norris took down the Roman Empire, so it is good that you are starting early on this curriculum. R.I.P.

Deraldin Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 yeah Edwin is pretty insanely good i remember one playthrough i had with me (fighter/mage), Nalia, Imoen, Edwin, Haer'dalis, and Jan was so crazily powerful 6 Arcane magic users? I can't imagine playing a full group without any divine casters for the healing. Playing a small group without healing isn't too bad, especially if you manage to pick up a regeneration item or two and it's easier to keep all your characters health when you've got fewer of them to keep track of.

Monte Carlo Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 SoZ, am trying out my first Eldritch Knight and Red Dragon Disiciple twink builds. BG2, naturally, still making my modded build so haven't chosen a character yet. Maybe it's nostalgia, but after the over-kill of choice in NWN2 / 3.5E I find the ludicrously restrictive AD&D 2E strangely comforting. Weird. Cheers MC

Aristes Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 I'm playing farmville while listening to A Kiss to Build a Dream On. Change the graphics a bit and it'd be a Fallout farming sim!
Majek Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 Just bought Monkey Island for 360. SE or Tales? 1.13 killed off Ja2.
Hell Kitty Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 Just bought Monkey Island for 360. SE or Tales? SE. I'm not terribly interested in Tales.
Majek Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 I'm not all the satisfied with SE. Sure the VA are superb but otherwise it just feels weird. And when i change back an forth between original and SE i get the feeling that most of the time old pixel convey everything much better than this fancy new art style. 1.13 killed off Ja2.
Gfted1 Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 Today I learned, via wow heroes, that Im the 347th best geared mage on my server. LOL, I suck. On the bright side, Im the 8th best geared in my guild out of all classes. "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa"

Setzer Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 Lord of the Rings Online - Almost 60 on my Rune Keeper...pretty excited. Now I can work on getting my radiance gear. Mass Effect - Enjoying the game, just not playing it that much thanks to Lotro.
Morgoth Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 Oh next week Divinity 2 is gonna be released. I'm excited. Rain makes everything better.
Setzer Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 (edited) What server? I just started LOTRO. I'm on Windfola. -EDIT- Hurlshot, how did you get your character info in your signature? Edited July 16, 2009 by Setzer
Kaftan Barlast Posted July 16, 2009 Posted July 16, 2009 I played the new Blood Bowl game at a friends place, its a lot of fun but I think there will be hellish problems with balance. Each team is ordered by speed-skill-strength and strength absolutely dominates, its not possible to win a game with a weaker team when half your team is obliterated in the first few turns. Especially if you play online and you have to spend all you money to buy and upgrade new players all the time because the old ones keep dying. Skaven are the coolest, but they stink. I managed to win a single game against the Goblins but half my team died.
