Maria Caliban Posted September 4, 2010 Posted September 4, 2010 Elitist is pretty much everything else posted on this board. I've noticed that since Fallout 3, Mass Effect 2, and Dragon Age: Origins came out, we've lost a chunk of our previous elitism. It seems as though every board member (grugingly) liked one or more of those games. "When is this out. I can't wait to play it so I can talk at length about how bad it is." - Gorgon.

HoonDing Posted September 4, 2010 Posted September 4, 2010 "Well, aren't we condescending... Maybe try the codex?" I agree. The responses he's gotten in this trhead have been nothing but condescending and trolling in nature. But, that's the Obsidian boards for ya. They hoinestly think they ar ebetter then forums the Codex when, really, it really is like the Codex just with less swears and porn and that's only due to it to being official forums and Obsidian would have to ban those who did stuff like that. LMAO Anyways, to the actual subject. I doon't play NWN all that much now - just once and awhile - but, this PW looks to be pretty good if it delivers actual challenging combat. NWN may not be 'old skool' but thank god for that since old skool games like EOTB and many of the GB games 9sand POR0 suck, anyways. Old skool RPgs tend to be very light on actual role-playing, anyways. And, BG series may be older in years than NWN but it's no more old skool since its combat system is basically the same with just 2E rules instead of 3E. *shrug* And, BG2 was only released a few years before anyways. LONG LIVE NWN DEATH TO BG!!! The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.
Maria Caliban Posted September 4, 2010 Posted September 4, 2010 (edited) I'm serious. The first sentence is an observation - previous to Fallout 3, this board was very, very elitist. It's not as much now, and I'm merely speculating that people enjoying Fallout 3, DA:O, and ME2 might be part of the reason. The current conversation about DA 2 is far nicer than what we used to have about DA:O before it released. We're largely positive about Fallout NV and Witcher 2. To be sure, I still imagine this place as a dusky pub where middle aged men come to grouse about everything over mugs of beer (only the men are young and grousing about games).

Monte Carlo Posted September 4, 2010 Posted September 4, 2010 ^ I'm not young. I'm getting older every minute, but it's strangely enjoyable. And DA2 will suck.
Hurlshort Posted September 4, 2010 Posted September 4, 2010 We really aren't that young anymore on here.
WorstUsernameEver Posted September 4, 2010 Posted September 4, 2010 You want elitism? Fallout 3 sucked. Dragon Age : Origins was a bad LotR rip-off! Mass Effect 2 sucks so much that I didn't even pirate it! Yes, I was joking.
Monte Carlo Posted September 4, 2010 Posted September 4, 2010 I was middle-aged when I registered here in 2004. That's hardcore.

Well, there are more reasonable people here, but there are also more haters, just look at the AP section.
Maria Caliban Posted September 4, 2010 Posted September 4, 2010 We really aren't that young anymore on here. I am unsure as to how old 'that young' is. "When is this out. I can't wait to play it so I can talk at length about how bad it is." - Gorgon.
Slowtrain Posted September 4, 2010 Posted September 4, 2010 Elitist is pretty much everything else posted on this board. we've lost a chunk of our previous elitism. I haven't. Notice how I can belittle your beliefs without calling you names. It's a useful skill to have particularly where you aren't allowed to call people names. It's a mistake to get too drawn in/worked up. I mean it's not life or death, it's just two guys posting their thoughts on a message board. If it were personal or face to face all the usual restraints would be in place, and we would never have reached this place in the first place. Try to remember that.
Nepenthe Posted September 4, 2010 Posted September 4, 2010 We really aren't that young anymore on here. I am unsure as to how old 'that young' is. Should we have a poll? I'm a few months short of 30! You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep. Have I ever said that? Reapercussions

Monte Carlo Posted September 4, 2010 Posted September 4, 2010 Old gamers never die, they just go to hell and re-group.

Orogun01 Posted September 5, 2010 Posted September 5, 2010 Does hell have good games? Just the buggy ones. So Obsidian is guaranteed to be there I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"* *If you can't tell, it's you.
Slowtrain Posted September 5, 2010 Posted September 5, 2010 Does hell have good games? Just the buggy ones. So Obsidian is guaranteed to be there Actually it's pretty crowded. Battlecruiser 3000 AD has an entire circle all to itself. Notice how I can belittle your beliefs without calling you names.
