I was horrifed to read about 50 reasons why NWN1 is better than NWN2.

Here is my explanation for this dismal piece of software:

1) Bioware create and Atari distribute NWN - who we can all agree kicked some ass, and lost me a lot of man hours.
2) Fan-base becomes huge. Potentially a LOT bigger than what they had in mind.
3) Large fan-base = large number of people to mention issues and irregularities in the game = large amount of bugs to fix
4) Bioware are forced into producing expanions in order to fund bug-fixing and keep face with Atari.
5) Biowares profit margins are reduced, and are potentially pissed off with the amount of support they have had to do for their software (there were a LOT of patches for a non-subscription game)
6) They refuse to do another one, and are forced into a solution, for financial purposes in one way or the other
7) Obsidian knows the problems, but they are the only ones who are willing / stupid enough to take on this behemoth project.
Obsidian do it with a realistic budget. Meaning either new 'features', or spending money on the stuff we REALLY enjoy - like armour types! Oh - and making sure they put in at least what was in the original.

I think that sums it up.

Godspire 2 will come.
But only to NWN2 if they fix its suckiness before everyone gets bored of the game.

Whats this .pwc stuff all about anyway?

Thats awesome!
Get some idiots to refer their friends and you can send loads of spam - legally!
Brilliant!

i just saw this and think its a bunch of shit. If youtube has to start moderating what is uploaded they will get next to no business because all the good stuff (illegal stuff) is what people watch, including me. This better end up being nothing and not effecting Youtube.

looks like someone is jealous about the succes of youtube and google and can't find anything else and think to get easy money

THESE KIND OF PEOPLE FUCK UP THE FREAKING WORLD!

What on earth are you guys talking about. These criminals, and the people that created youtube,  are making and have made an absolute fortune off other peoples copyright.
The ONLY reason youtube werent sued previously is because they had no money. People have been sitting back waiting for one of the big three to buy them and then sue them - thats whats happened here.
I hope that all copyright owners do the same, or at east establish a relationship whereby their costs are covered by the advertising on the youtube site. Maybe it will even reduce the duration of commercial breaks in traditional media (although thats usually when they start a new channel )
Sue away, I know I would.

got a vague idea?

Yep - its because they will randomly select a winner (or randomly select people until they find a suitable entry at the very most)
You need to answer a question otherwise it is classes as an illegal lottery / game of chance.
If there was no random selection involved, then they wouldnt have to mention these regulations.

Makes no sense whatsoever, considering im a confirmed tree-hugger - i think the meaning of the questions were lost on these peeps (but im sure many of you would disagree ):

Control: fire and the heavens
Size: massive
Live: Forrested mounted slopes
Humans: stop polluting
Other dragins: warriors and defenders
View self: natural and free
Action if threatened: noone would consider
Magic or spells: born with them
How much treasure: all i need, trees, etc
Music: ambient, downbeat, new-age

How exactly does that make me:



Your Inner Dragon is the classic example of dragon evil. Remember Smaug? Yep, Red Dragon. Oh, my friend you're in good company. Red dragons are the most vile and crafty of all the dragons. They are also the most dangerous of all dragons. As such they are the Fire Elemental dragons. Reds have a nasty tendency towards luring you in with quiet words and soft emotions, then wrapping their scaly tails around you and biting off your puny little human head. Fun, no?

But of course, Reds aren't all about killing and treasure hoarding. You like to invent creative traps, spend long hours relaxing in the mouths of volcanoes, fly over the vast forests of the planet looking for men on horseback ...er... sheep (yeah...), and pick fights. Your favorable attributes are Noon, Summer, the sword, helpful fire, blood, courage, passion, will power, and leadership. If dragons went to war, they'd rally behind you in a snap. Well, you or a Copper Dragon. But those guys are wusses anyway, and you could beat one up to take command. In fact, you probably would considering your breath weapon is good old fashioned Fire, and plenty of it. Just remember that some sheep carry swords and you'll do fine.

No worry's. I didnt take offence or anything. So you got the NWN2 Toolset yet?

retard...

Now, if you want to talk about off-topic, Talon's post which was completely off-topic, should show you that well. In addition he replied more than a week later.

[snapback]31649[/snapback]

In what way was my post off-topic? It was simply a response to your retarded statement.
Posting about the age of a thread in a topic that is not even vaguely related to 'thread age' is blatantly OT.

As for me posting a week later - well - if it had have been a month later, a year later, or even sometime after duke nukem forever gets released - my comment would have still been valid.

And yes - youre still an idiot/retard/nuisance

Both my desktops are hypersonic . Thats all I use, but their laptops are retardedly priced. The Apple G series is awesome, especially for graphic design and animation. I will probably end up buying it, I found one with a 17" screen, MS Office and a ton of other amenities for a grand. I am still not sure, but I dunno, just wanted you guys opinions. Will take more opinions ofcourse though.

The apple G series is EOL.
Modern apples use intel processors and are at least 3 times more powerful than their predecessors.

Oh - and Mo - mid-high end apples are considerably cheaper than the dell equivalent.

I'm sure Talon will be happy to critique that one too. (I wonder who googled their handle  today, that can make you go blind!)

The all too familiar Save Game Corrupted because the game crashed when you went to save.

Maybe you should get another computer, or use NTFS...

The weird pause and stuttering sound you hear is a joke on how slow and loud the Commodore 64 floppy drive was. (Thats 5 1/4" disks)

F**king rich boy!

As my computer broke down i couldn't tell you guys but Psycho's password was guessed by someone in his class. We will probaly never find out who did it but i'm almost sure Psycho didn't post the crap. Of course i can't know for sure but Psycho in RL really doesn't seem like porn related spammer at all. In fact he really likes LM.

Edit: @Ser He did show me a PM where you asked him if he liked being banned. Funny!  :lol2:

[snapback]30260[/snapback]

They guessed his password, guessed his username, and then guessed that he would have an account on a forum called lucidmagic.

Thats pretty cool
