  1. WoD vs nWoD?

    They got rid of global hierarchies such as The Camarilla and reduced the scope of everything down to a "city-state" level. Factions are now ideological outlooks that vary in practice from city to city. The Lancea Sanctum is actively hunting The Circle of the Crone and the Ordo Dracul in New...
  2. Gamasutra discusses child killing (or lack thereof) in FO3

    Judging by early mods, a more appropriate version of this would be: Not being able to kill kids was one of many things that broke the game's verisimilitude for me. My optimal scenarios: - No kids at all - Kids are included and can be killed. Designers take advantage of this by putting...
  3. Development Info Mass Effect 2 Confirmed

    Haven't read any specifics like that. I wouldn't be surprised if it's a new Spectre, ship, and crew.
  4. Development Info Mass Effect 2 Confirmed

    This salarian is the CEO of a corporate controlled planet. Let's make his office huge. Now what would an intergalactic CEO have in his office? A desk. And ... um ... let's throw in some crates and a large plant.
  5. GameSpot goes for the end-year lulz

    This thread is full of irony, fail. SMT: Persona 3 is a Roguelike and hence is closer to cRPG's real roots than most AAA offerings. Nonetheless, it comes with gay characters and gay monsters and a gay story. It's enough to change your life forever, and the only valid reason to sway gamers...
  6. Money talks - advertisement money, that is

    Great news! Maybe the guy will start a legitimate review site that caters to gamers instead of suits. It won't pull in as much as Gamespot, but the venture could very well net him more money than he made at his previous job. His name is suddenly out there all over the webs, inundated in gamer...
  7. NWN2 barbarian build

    I have a sneaking suspicion that all the builds are viable in NWN2. The trick is to build something that matches your playing style. My Arcane Trickster is coming along nicely, but that is because I am not selecting spells that do damage based on caster level. If you want to rush in to battle...
  8. Best Horror games you've ever played

    The first Silent Hill didn't scare me much. The monsters were mostly lame ... oh no, a grey midget is going to stab me in the knees! That game only scared me during those moments where creepy stuff was going on but the monsters had not showed up yet, which is a shame, because Team Silent...
  9. Any good Non-ASCII Roguelikes?

    If you like Console gaming, Persona 3 could be the game for you. It depends on whether you have these interests: - Roguelikes - Gay
  10. Interview Mysteries of Westgate interview

    Nifty. I thought most of these Ossian folks had released Hall of Fame modules of their own before joining the team, so I had always envisioned the group as being jacks of all trades. Quality of quantity; also promising. I hope this doesn't play out like Oblivions. (I am the Lord...
  11. Tieflings replace Gnomes as a core race in DnD4

    The real irony is that this was written in English.
  12. Review The Witcher - not for hardcore RPG players

    What the hell is a hardcore RPG player anyway? Someone who goes to DragonCon hoping to lose his virginity?
  13. Review New levels of stupidity discovered - a Witcher review

    Wouldn't MMO addicts be more prone to huge sandboxes packed with two hundred and fifty hours of largely meaningless quests? This is a textbook example of doing it wrong.
  14. Tieflings replace Gnomes as a core race in DnD4

    They ran out of stuff to write about and want more money. I don't think many gamers are lining up for PHB III or Complete Warriors II so it isn't such a bad thing. My only regret is they never wrote The Big Book of Meh to compliment Exalted Deeds and Vile Darkness.
  15. Romances in RPG

    Seconded. Put some emphasis on the "interesting" in my previous post. This stuff is content in my view.
