  1. My GalCiv2 Review

    Is the gameplay markedly different from GC1 (other than custom ship modability)? As good as GC1 was I got burned out on the play dynamics eventually.
  2. Preview Another OMG!THIS GAEM IS SO AWSOME!!! Oblivion preview

    The quality and balance of the campaign mode was the primary problem with Stronghold 2, though the graphics could have been better. The first game was superior, I agree.
  3. Bethesda: Scammers or Game-makers?

    Can we just drop the "Dumb Fuck!!!" label on Excrément and be done with it?
  4. Preview Another OMG!THIS GAEM IS SO AWSOME!!! Oblivion preview

    How is GC2 compared to GC1? I still have some RSI issues with my mousing hand from playing the first one. Civ4 sucked, I exchanged it for Stronghold 2 after 20 minutes of playtime.
  5. Game News Oblivion mage quests (highly intricate stuff)

    Bethesda Softworks is a hierarchical organization and as such it rewards political cunning over skills that actually support the goals of the organization. In this sort of climate survival and promotion depend on towing the line. Speaking out contrary to design decisions is construed as a...
  6. The only way a fallout rpg could be topped

    I've had the best PnP sessions with Call of Cthulhu personally (probably due to the fact that you have to <i>think</i> to beat a module as the mythos encounters are so strong that frontal attack is usually fatal) -- the detective aspect is also very appealing. The most fun I've had is tricking...
  7. The only way a fallout rpg could be topped

    I could see how Paranoia would work well in the context of a structured PvP MMORPG, but Paranoia does have a form of guilds (service groups & secret societies) that are assigned randomly as part of character generation : Paranoia Character Generation Summary (1st ed. players handbook (c)...
  8. Oblivion question for MSFD

    Does this mean my 15 minutes of fame are up?
  9. Oblivion question for MSFD

    Newbie douchebag: You run a TES fan site for the "for the discussion of all things stealth in Elder ScrollsIV: Oblivion", this qualifies you as a TES fanboy. In fact the only reason you're probably here is to flog your POS forum. Any fool can see that the Codex is awash in morons from the...
  10. Oblivion question for MSFD

    My take on this is that MSFD left not because of people like me who openly criticize Bethesda but because of the steady influx of creepy TES fanboys into the Codex. Hey I could be wrong, but he seemed to enjoy debating people here (and my hat's off to him for holding his own for so long)...
  11. Interview Pete Hines on Fallout 3

    I think expecting decent quests and writing out of Bethesda is a bit too much to ask for. The problem starts with the producer and his concept of what an RPG should be. Todd Howard is clearly a graphics & action whore (to the detriment of quality content that abounds in FO2 as you state)...
  12. Company News Atari starts sinking

    Re: Why the celebration? Try the patch, I had little trouble with bugs afterwards.
  13. Company News Atari starts sinking

    Why the celebration? While Atari has made mistakes (rushing ToEE comes to mind), they do continue to publish RPGs. The problem then becomes one of perception. Does the industry as a whole connect their (possible) demise with poor RPG sales? If so it's bad news for RPG developers, if for nothing...
