One thing I still remember clearly about this game: The voice actor for Commander Vimes is horrible.

Been several years since I played it, sorta falls in that same category as Divine Divinity in that it is a Diablo clone with a decent story id est if you can stand diablo gameplay you'll probably get enjoyment out of it. As far as voice acting I don't really recall if there was any.
PS Avoid the game's sequel Seal of Evil; imo, the game was a large step down in quality and far more linear.

Shootah time? Shootah time! "Potato Quake" (quoted from ads from late '90).
I'm kidding, this game is same shooter category like a Thief recognized headchop-cabbache simulator.
Most difficult game I've ever tried to emulate in DOSbox.
Seems promising.
Look at that pose...
Soap, you need a gun to shoot. Pointing fingers doesn't work.
Game over, cry me over.
Name's Dust and it's made by devs who were screwed by Potato goverment.

Got it from Optimus Nexus pack. With other game (Riddles of Leon) and bunch of education stuff.
There was even 3D museum with real animals who wander on the museum (srsly - just short animation, propably based on AVI files) breaking the total silence, really great thing for first meet with PC (and Windows98, hate that system with passion).
There is some guy in the web who create "total game convertion" to OGRE engine (now he made it to UNITY propably) who found some DOSbox stuff (configuration and else) to play it somewhat. Enjoyed with 15 FPS. Improvements from my config attempts with 5 FPS...
And remember kids - pay taxes (even overwhelming one) or something bad happen to your potatos, your only precious...

I remember I had a version which would ran fine on Win7 in both Glide and software renderer, and there was also an interview where one of the developers was telling things about the game and how it was developed.
UPD:
Finally managed to run Summoner without noticeable slowdowns (though Lenele will probably lag again).
I was suprised to find out that PS2 version is even MORE better than I remember it.
PS2 version has no quest compass, but has grimdark color scheme (PC version has fucked up palette with bland colors), real shadows (PC had blobs) and better particles (fire effect in PC version was awful). Also, PS2 version lacks control problems (mouse controls in the PC version were buggy) and animation bug which turned Joseph into a golden baby with a rocket up his ass.
Oh yeah, you can also talk to anyone. ANYONE.

Brofist for elaborate the difference. Also cool game, sadly I've managed to beat the PC version.
Ending (you know which one) was nice.
Also - how chain attacks work? I remeber that on PC they do absolutely nothing.

On Pc it seems to work like a proto-witcher 1 system. Key+click does something.

I didn't beat it to the end, sadly. I lost all motivation at Wolong Cave.

PC version had shitty control scheme, you had to press alt, ctrl, tab and something else to perform special attack. On gamepad they are assigned on D-Pad, and are easily available.
Those chain attacks allow you to perform chain of attacks: attack normally again (Added Blow), attack and deal damage proportional to the formula (maxhealth-currenthealth=damage) (Desperation), drain enemy's AP (Confusion) and (Push) to increase chances of the next chain attack.
BTW, Lenele runs fine on PS2 version, though lagging occures from time to time (if camera is panned too far, for example).

Requiem of Skyrim: Chapter 475: Ronnie's Sacrifice! We will not forget our friend!
Yeah, you'd think Yggdrasil would look more imposing.
The threat of a dragon attack has left the jarl's bodyguard so testy that she flipped the fuck out when an elk approached the patrol.
Soon before the dragon swoops down, I run around casting a regenerative healing spell on everyone. This will help them get up on their own if I can't reach them safely to cast an on-touch heal. A side benefit I didn't predict is that this makes them glow a little, so finding them in the middle of the confusion isn't too hard.
Mirmulnir is changed into "Wounded Dragon" in Requiem, possibly to help justify why you can take a dragon relatively early in the game. I guess the soldiers stationed at the tower managed to get a few good hits on him before he killed them. Still, he could comfortably kill me with a direct hit. From what I've seen, he's stronger but more fragile than Deadly Dragon's Mirmulnir, which took like an hour to kill, not counting reloads.
The dragon's loot was uninteresting shit. Yeah, that's a lot of bones, but I'd be cool to find at least one enchanted ring from a dead adventurer or whatever.
Irileth adresses a bunch of Codexers.
Sadly, the price of victory was high - Ronnie, our friendly neighbourhood zombie bandit boss, was burned to a crisp. His body was also mangled beyond belief, a fate caused by jumping into the beast's face with nothing but a battleaxe. Undeath removes all instincts of self preservation. Your sacrifice will not be forgotten, Ron. Arvel (the Bleakfalls Barrow guy that was stuck in the web), being a dark elf, fared much better against the dragon's fiery breath. Well, at least his face is still recognizable.
...wait, who the fuck is that guy to the right? That's not a guard uniform.
...a drunkard was passing by and decided to join the fight, armed only with his fists. Not sure if
or 
His "friends" were only 30 meters to the right of the watchtower, apparently too drunk to notice the mythical beast wrecking havoc nearby. Or maybe they noticed it and were too drunk to realize it was real.
It's not a fine day dumbass, your friend just got chomped in half by a fucking dragon
By the way, I met the Hammerfell warriors while exiting Whiterun, and they apparently got involved in this fight. They were walking away from the tower, one of them with a big chunk of his health missing. There were also some convenient traveling merchants coming to see the wreckage, and were happy to take all my phat loot.
(actually I could still raise Ronnie, but combined with Lydia our party would be too awesome and the difficulty would go down the drain. This looks like a good moment to say goodbye to Ronnie. At least now I can go back to summoning skeletons without feeling cheesy)

No, the first one is originally from PS2.

Some random fairly old KSP screenshots I have lying around:
Thank modders for the Alarm Clock mod, keeping track of several simultaneously launched spacecraft in transit to other planets is a bitch without it.
Kerbin North Pole from orbit.
Athena Shuttle performing a final orbital insertion burn around laythe.
Same shuttle aerobraking in Laythe's atmosphere earlier.
Maintenance drone detaching from Atlantis space station core module.
Ion Engine lander landing on Gilly, a captured asteroid that is Eve's only moon and the smallest celestial object in the game.
Aphrodite orbiter performing close study of Eve after the landing on Gilly.
Space station in Duna low orbit.
Also a bonus FTL screenshot:
I wish you could hijack enemy ships and ditch yours, kind of like in Sid Meier's Pirates! Just getting extra loot from it is a bit underwhelming even if still useful.
