@ winterfox: I really admire your constant reccomendation of KotOR <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> Its such a good game everyone should play it (At least twice to see both endings) <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/delight.gif" alt="" />

well if it's good, why not tell people about it, right? i mean, the same goes for bad games, u feel that u should warn people of certain games that may not be up to par, well yours of course. more than that, one cannot be held accountable.

she has good reason to do so & i think it's good for a gamer to help out other gamers by sharing game experiences.

& yes, i would recommend KOTOR as well. it's fun all the way except that it lacks in replays. too bad.

I know, thats why I said I admired her for keeping on reccomending it to people, the more who know it and play it the better <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

No replay?? I replayed it as a Dark Side and found it a different enough game to keep me interested until the end. I played as male first time and female second time so I got both romance plots as well. All up I got nearly 80 gameplay hours. 50 first time, 30 the second. Awesome <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> That works out to a mere $1 an hour for entertainment.

Winterfox:


Yes, I agree with the first part. However, Atari forced them to release the game one month before the deadline. That's what I am trying to say. And still no 2nd patch.


Honestly, I can't see what's wrong with IWD2: It's a well made game, with a storyline and wtih more quests and less mindless H&S than IWD1. Nevertheless, I just couldn't be interested in this game's story. Maybe it lacked character?


I do not know. Maybe if I played Planescape: Torment now, I would've liked it...
I also heard many good reviews of KotOR but my computer wouldn't run this game.

I am currently playing Vampire: The Masquerade: Redemption. For some reasons, I tend to like games which got low reviews: Arcanum and now VTM.
Nevertheless I am quite enjoying this one, it has great graphics (better than NWN IMHO), interesting combat and engaging storyline. In fact, even if you often don't have dialogue choices, when you do, the choice you take is important, for example:
When I fought a setite priestess, I the had her heart and the choices were:
"I shall stake this wicked heart and destroy her" or
"I shall drain this heart to gain the priestess' powers".
I took the later one. It lowered my Humanity raiting by 20 but I got a whole new spell school, which was quite useful. It's the only game I played so far where being evil doesn't complicate the game: in the middle ages, you can buy weapons and armours "of the Unholly": usable only by evil.

I agree totally. I just liked IWD2's character design far better.

Vampire: TMR got bad reviews??? I love that game. Had all the elements of a great Action RPG and then some.

Not awful but rather bad reviews. I love that game nevertheless. It is the best action RPG without being dumbened down. Also unlike the reviews state, this game is not as linear. Sometimes I wonder how Diablo got such high reviews whereas other games (like the original DD and VTM) got average. Hell, even Dungeon Siege won RPG of the year award.

I went to gamespot on purpose to get a character records sheet picture.
Here it is:

What's the opposite of an Vampire ? ... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" />

Do you mean a female or a male Vampire???? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

No ... something like a "Lifegiver" ... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

ah <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shame.gif" alt="" /> on you, you have spoiled my joke <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/alien.gif" alt="" />

No, I don't think so. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
