  1. Handheld RPG's; Whats hot?

    The PSP Valkyrie Profile is actually the port of the Playstation 1 version. The biggest difference is the one Heresiarch mentions. Also the movement at the psp version is a bit smoother and the graphics look a bit better, but that's to be expected. The PS2 Valkyrie profile is the sequel (or...
  2. Fallout a better RPG than Oblivion according to Gamerhelp

    It's good to see Fallout get the pinaccle rpg spot but at some other categories his choices are awful: God of War as the best action and not even a mention of Prince of Persia? Even Sands of Time was better than God of War 1 (and God of War 2 was worse than 1). Company of Heroes as the...
  3. Mod News The Witcher - uncut dialogues unlocked

    I don't think they do. They go forward, it's just that forward isn't always better and in the case of rpgs I guess the great majority of the codexers would agree that things are far worse now than they were 5 years ago.
  4. need advice on IWD2 party

    I usually prefer balanced parties for these games so I can see more of the content that the game has to offer. My advice is to have a character with all of the dialogue skills and focus on combat with the rest of them. There are only a few occations when another member of your party other...
  5. Community Mask of the Betrayer contest - winners

    Even Tom Cruise in Interview with the Vampire looked less faggy Lestat :P (Sorry for the off topic, I just had to comment).
  6. Is there Torment quality writing in the world of JRPG's?

    I like JRPGs, I've played quite a few, mostly on SNES and Playstation and lately on PS2. I started playing them at a time when most western rpgs were dungeon crawls and didn't have much going in the way of story and characters. Of course nowadays there are tons of great western rpgs that have...
  7. Pre-Baldur's Gate good plots/settings

    And yet one more for Betrayal at Krondor. It's still my favorite rpg after all these years and despite any shortcommings. Also Betrayal in Antara. Though much much inferior to BaK, it's still a nice game with interesting storyline and beautiful graphics.
  8. Mod News The Witcher - uncut dialogues unlocked

    Exactly, 2d is often superior to 3d and only recently there have been 3d games that I believe will last the test of time (if you play some of the older 3d ones they look teribble today, while 2d ones still look great, apart from the small resolution). My point is that you can't expect things...
  9. Obe's RPG Epiphany

    There are tons of older adventure games that fit this description. If you want to take it to the extreemes, there are a lot of text adventures developed every year. Many modern adventure games feature very easy puzzles so the fit more with your description of an interactive book (there are a few...
  10. Mod News The Witcher - uncut dialogues unlocked

    Yeah, and while you're at it change back to 2d graphics, 16 colours, just keyboard controll (no mouse) and make it so you type what you want your character to say, no list of possible lines.
  11. Age of Decadence should have exit messages

    Actually there is a whole behavioural science assosiated with this kind of things. I studied a bit at an optional class at university. Some may say that all these extra messages are for dumb users (even if they are, that's a fine reason to be there from the software creator's perspective - you...
  12. Mod News The Witcher - uncut dialogues unlocked

    That's nice to know. Now is there a way to replace the english voices with the polish voices so we can have the polish audio with the extended english subtitles? (I don't speak polish but from a video I saw in youtube they seem pretty well done). Also, perhaps there will be mods that fix all...
  13. OMG! Still Life sequel!

    I think you should give Still Life a chance. It's no TLJ (which is one of my favorite adventures) but it has quite a different style and atmosphere to avoid direct comparisons. It is a very good game, somewhat easy, with a dark atmosphere and some of the best cutscenes I've seen in an adventure...
  14. Review The Witcher seduces Sci Fi Weekly

    Although the name doesn't ring a bell (I hardly know any game journalists' names), a quick google search gave me this link: http://www.rpgcodex.net/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=21513 I don't know about the rest of the review but in that paragraph he paints a rather bleak picture of the world of...
  15. The Witcher 1 Thread

    We get movies with our newspapers and full games with several computer gaming magazines. Any news on the patch? It was announced it would be released around today.
