  1. Let's play.... ToEE with Co8

    Erm, Terjohn ressurrects dudes for 550 gold per resurrecton, you have at least 5k gold stashed and 4 dudes left, so what's the problem? Resurrect everyone or else you just won't be able to bring your average party level back to the tolerable height.
  2. Let's play.... ToEE with Co8

    Well, we're talking about sociopats here - why would they waste precious scrolls to raise anyone? And it's not even anyone we're talking here, it's just a druid. Proceed with fresh meat.
  3. Let's trample the Evil in Co8 ToEE; Chapter VIII

    Nah, no reloads - it's totally unmanly. And such end is pretty much getting what you deserve since your playthrough was way too easy, because there was no killing of Ravnos & Gremag at level 1, no killing of hill giant at level 2-3 (really, he's totally doable on lvl 2, albeit with much hassle)...
  4. Best RPG of the year - 2011 Top 10 Bitch and wine Thread!

    There actually was 10 rpgs this year?
  5. Driftmoon

    Codex requires no less then a grandmaster of psychiatry, so no, doubtful. Not that interested in this game, though. Top-down is all fine with me, because, unlike most of local population, I'm a very reasonable and pragmatical man and I perfectly understand how excellent top-down is for making...
  6. Frontiers - Mass Effect-like action-RPG

    Bros, so I was minding my business, browsing the web when I stumbled on this: Yeah, an indie-rpg (well, action-rpg, but novadays, it's as good as it gets) that I don't remember being discussed here (or even mentioned in the indie-rpg list). So what's the deal with this project, anyone heard...
  7. 5 Ways to Tell You're Getting Too Old for Video Games

    Read it before, really disliked it. 5 - he's kinda right about it, but by the wrong reasons. Multiplayer sucks because of the people, but that's not because it is choke full of adolescent scum - it's because people in general are trash. So no matter the age and maturity, it won't be a good...
  8. Bros, share my pain...

    So I'm ironmanning Fallout 2 Restoration Project, but with a playthrough that was like no other. Hardest difficulty and no gifted, obviously,skilled and fast shot instead with no weapon skills tagged (tags are on sneak, doctor & speech). And, in addition to the obvious non-loading restriction...
  9. Editorial Top Ten Worst CRPGs

    Doods, instead of raging at some of the Matt's choices (which, although not properly argued about, could be more or less justified or at the very least not that dumbfucky but more opinional), rage at the comments at the Rampant Coyote article, where you can find such "guilty pleasures" mentioned...
  10. Preview An Hour with Skyrim. It’s Amazing.

    He probably says that the Skyrim is the multikultest game evah, with total and cheerful friendship between all of the races and not even a hint on interracial hate, slurs, confict, etc (meaning that these things are totally ignored, probably because implementing them takes effort and effort...
  11. Editorial Don't Ask Questions Until the Player Can Answer

    So? By the same reason, when you pick your character's class in the beginning (either from pre-gens or by just pumping the corresponding skills and thinking "oh, this one will be a mage" and stuff), you too don't have a slightest idea about its power and effectiveness, so? You propose to skip...
  12. Editorial Don't Ask Questions Until the Player Can Answer

    This is a bullshit on so many levels that I don't even know where to start. First, the "you make more decision in the early game than in the late game" is bullshit - decisions are equalized by the fact that in the beginning you have zero equipment and quest-based buffs and in the late game...
  13. How to have fun with Spiderweb games

    You see, I wanted to reply to the neighbouring (atm) Spiderweb topic (asking what is good in his games and stuff) and the basis of my potential post was "well, they can be fun if you know how to cook them". And then I tried to describe how exactly to cook them, but when I looked at my post in...
  14. Game News Avernum: Escape From the Pit Announced

    Surprise: in terms of enjoyment Avadon has nothing common with latest Avernums and Geneforges. It's an absolute shit, so even if avernum I-III are shitty already (I dunno, I've played only 5-6 and got tired from the setting already), I don't think that changing the flavour of their shittiness...
  15. Interview Voodoo Priestesses and Personal Pirate Ships

    By the title I thought that they want to make an RPG in the Monkey Island universe. Would be pretty awesome, but no, instead it's some crap I couldn't care less about.
