    Revisiting VtM: Bloodlines

    You are absolutely right, v0.8 introduced many more superficial changes, such as model and cutscene improvements. It's a very thin line to walk though in terms of deciding what should be preserved and what needs to be 'improved', and I often have to be mindful when making suggestions to him - I...

    Revisiting VtM: Bloodlines

    After reading through the arguments over the Basic patch from a few years ago, I'd like to throw another patch into the ring that might be more to the taste of the purists among us - Norrwin's 'Standard Mod Patch'. While I believe the Unofficial Patch aims to create a more polished version of...

    Decline Game cancellations that made you personally butthurt

    What do people find more frustrating to think about, games that could have been great but were cancelled, or great games that could have been so much better if their development hadn't been as rushed? (i.e. SS2, KOTOR II, FNV, VTMB, the list goes on...) I personally think there's a big...

    RPGs with rival

    Fallout 2 had the cut rival Kaga, the previous candidate for the Chosen One role before he was exiled. He blames the PC for his misfortune and you could progressively run in to him and his gang trying to kill you throughout the game. Not vanilla content I know, but I feel like enough people use...

    RPGs that visualize character's progression in-game

    Other interesting visual changes that can happen (in Fable 1 at least): Your character ages as you level up skills, your hair greys and wrinkles start to appear on the skin. If you're shit at combat and keep getting hit, scars will form on the body (they even start off dark and fade as time...

    Hey, thanks! This will be my first Psi-only run so I might skip your Skill Rebalance for this playthrough to experience vanilla first - would you still recommend the SCP balance revert mod? I'm assuming it's not on the list because it seems like your rebalance takes care of the same things...

    I'm just about to replay SS2 after discovering your fantastic AI mod, any mods you do/don't recommend these days? I'm aware of your old post here, but from your demonstration videos it looks like you no longer use stuff like the visual mods so I'd be interested to see your updated opinions :)

    Retarded mechanics/features that never works out

    When a game disallows players from killing certain NPCs because doing so would make any quests they are involved in unavailable, or because it would be deemed 'socially unacceptable' (i.e. killing children).

    Best stories in an RPG

    For me it's either Skyrim or Fallout 4.

    Elder Scrolls Ways in which Morrowind indisputably inclined from Daggerfall

    >Todd makes sure that Morrowind gets repeatedly raped in the lore just to dab on people who keep saying Morrowind is better than Oblivion & Skyrim He can't keep getting away with this.

    Fallout .

    As someone who has slowly been cutting out all the pointless shit included in Misc Gameplay Merge with xEdit, thank you for validating my efforts by only including the individual mods that are actually decent from it in your would-have-been mod list. I've been considering switching to individual...
