  1. Editorial Beyond Divinity peekings of the week numero 33

    Sooner or later someone is going to work out that stupid copy protection problems = fewer sales which may offset the losses due to piracy... Still, later on in the article it implies they have worked around the problem. Which is fortunate, as I would refuse to buy anything which requires a...
  2. Historical rpgs

    Always seems a bit odd that games regarding history seems to be RTS rather than RPG. I guess the market segmentation experts figure that RPG players are supposed to be dumb cunts who aren't interested in history but only teh kewl 13wt. Probably the best we can hope for is a "medieval Sims"...
  3. Comprehensive BG2 Mod List

    I liked Tactics, Ascension and BG Tutu. All the others I've seen have been a/ shite or b/ bugfests. Still, I applaud the effort if not the attainment, as I would for NWN mods - amongst the dross is the occasional gold nugget.
  4. New RPG announced...

    The range...my god, the range. And monks. I hate monks. Why are RPG monks all like Bruce Lee instead of - say - the Venerable Bede?
  5. Factions: what can they do for YOU?

    The one thing I didn't really like about Morrowind and Torment (apologies for mentioning them both in the same sentence of course, I should wash out my keyboard) was the possibility of joining multiple factions. Of course, they were implemented differently - in Morrowind, the problem was that...
  6. Review RPG Dot opinion on KOTOR

    The only reason I kept playing to the end was the tantalising possibility of having sex with Bastila (the "victory shag"). Then I noticed the 12 rating on the box. Oh, and that she wasn't real. Shit, I hate reality.
  7. Czechs are silly: BG3 rumours

    I believe her recent erratic behaviour might qualify her as a berserker. "Britney enters a rage, gaining +2 to pouting and +4 to storming out of interviews in a huff".
  8. Czechs are silly: BG3 rumours

    Britney Spears RPG...now that has potential. I'd prefer a shoot 'em up though..."Britney's Celebrity Slaughterfuck" perhaps. I wonder if Hasbro would buy the license?
  9. Review RPG Dot opinion on KOTOR

    Yeah, the Star Forge segment just took the piss. It wasn't even intelligent hack and slash. In any case, if I'm using lightsabers the least I want to be able to do is lop some limbs off, which was de rigeur in the films. You should have had a choice of routes to Malak, only one of which was...
  10. Czechs are silly: BG3 rumours

    WTF is Aznarr anyhow? Wasn't he the recently deposed Spanish PM?
  11. Game News NWN 2 interesting news

    Quite probably. I think the link is even more tenuous than usual given that "NWN2" will probably not be in a FR setting or even use AD&D rules. Perhaps the best you can say is "well, its by the same people who made NWN..."
  12. Game News NWN 2 interesting news

    I think the prevailing wisdom at the Bio boards is that any "NWN2" would be a spiritual successor, rather than an actual sequel. Whatever that means. I quite liked NWN. Apart from the fact that I couldn't jump. Or swim. Or ride. Or fly. Or play a proper evil character. Or find a...
  13. Old School RPG... Where have they gone?

    I loved Valhalla on the good (sic) old ZX Spectrum. You ask Thor to throw the wine at Nidhog. Thor throws the wine at Nidhog. Nidhog attacks Thor. Actually the best thing about the whole game was just asking characters to beat each other up. However I'm not sure if they sold the...
  14. Games from a Christian perspective

    Actually most twats are bearded. :P As for people with beards...don't get me started. Bunch of wanabee Jesuses. Nail 'em all up, I say. Actually, nailings too good for them. Staple 'em up. Or use Blu-Tac.
  15. Games from a Christian perspective

    I always blame the parents, it saves time. People who blame society are wussy lefty beardy sandal wearers, people who blame the devil are religious wackos who beat themselves (in every sense), whilst people who blame video games are authoritarian Big Brother thought police. Not sure what that...
