    Unofficial patches for Thief and other PC games

    Age of Empires 2 UserPatch (has bugfixes, widescreen support, compatibility stuff, and a bunch of optional, but cool additions) Because I hate seeing people spend money on that horrible HD edition.

    Why is Age of Empire 2 HD such garbage?

    It's not even "mods" it's "mod". The user patch by itself does pretty much all of the good things the HD remake does, plus other cool stuff, plus not fucking shit up, all by itself. One easy to install download. So there's really no excuse to ever even consider getting the "HD" version.

    Incline RPG Codex's Top 50 cRPGs - Results and Reviews

    Bull. Fucking. Shit. I went into DA:O optimistic. I had heard lots of good things about it and I generally did want to like it. And I did. For a while. The first few hours with the origin stories and all that seemed pretty cool. I didn't like the MMO-style combat much at all, but I could...

    Interview Feargus Urquhart and Fredrik Wester on the Pillars of Eternity distribution deal

    It's a flawed analogy, because Obsidian is getting more from the deal than just the cost of the marketing and QA (the rent money). Since Obsidian has much less expertise in marketing and QA, Paradox's marketing and QA is valued higher than Obsidian's (ie you get better marketing and QA for the...

    Interview Feargus Urquhart and Fredrik Wester on the Pillars of Eternity distribution deal

    I suppose this is fair, but I feel like the "we only get a portion of the profits" part of his quote strongly implies that the lion's share of the profits go to the publisher. The opposite is true here. Anyways, this seems like a smart move, and even if it technically isn't 100% consistent with...

    Game News Pillars of Eternity Kickstarter Update #74: Wizards and Druids + Paradox Distribution Deal

    You realize that Paradox is doing QA right? What exactly do you think the point of QA is other than making sure the product is "up to standard"?

    Completed Let's solo Baldur's Gate 2 on Insane (feat. The Codex)

    Technically there's another Yoshimo mission, which involves taking his heart to the temple of Ilmater (after he betrays you naturally). Of course this would require that you take him with you through Brynnlaw, which seems out of the question. Another vote for the main quest. I know how big a...

    NSFW Best Thread Ever [No SJW-related posts allowed]

    Seriously. Nosferatu gave off much more of a rapey vibe than her description of this game, and that's the father of all vampire movies.

    Forgotten Strategy Games

    Sid Meier's Gettysburg was pretty excellent. Probably the most fun I've had in a Civil War game. Not sure if it really counts as forgotten, being a Sid Meier game. But then, I have a whole bunch of friends who love strategy games, yet have never met anyone else IRL who has played it.

    Obsidian's Pillars of Eternity [BETA RELEASED, GO TO THE NEW THREAD]

    Not only could a phalanx defeat a battleship, but if you knew what you were doing, then winning after the BCs was a game where things went very poorly (yes, on Emperor difficulty). Generally speaking, there wasn't much reason to make buildings (except for barracks), especially because the...
