    Age of Wonders 3

    That ruled though. Also when playing on hard in AoW 1, you don't have that much points to go crazy with carrying over units. For instance high level heroes could eventually get too expensive to carry over, so you'd have to leave old heroes behind and get new heroes at some point. I've played...

    What's the longest it took you to finish an RPG?

    I started my Dragon Age: Origins playthrough in 2010. It's been on hold for years but I kept the saves since I intend to finish it but no way in hell am I starting over from zero. I put it on pause when I was about to go to Landsmeet. I intended to wrap up all the generic sidequests before that...

    Screenshot thread

    I also tended to play FPS one notch above normal and had to drop Serious Sam since I refused to drop the difficulty but whatever the equivalent of hard difficulty was called was too hard for me. Guess I should try it again on normal some day. Changing the difficulty to easy would be a painful...

    Atlus What's the appeal of Megami Tensei?

    Saying Persona and SMT have no common gameplay mechanics is an exaggeration. You collect and fuse demons in both, combat is mostly about hitting elemental weaknesses and avoiding getting hit to your elemental weaknesses. When there's a difficult encounter, the solution is often to find/fuse/use...

    Age of Wonders 4

    The healing ability (such as clerics have) in AoW 1 is usable once per day, not once per battle. Pretty sure there are no once per battle heals in AoW 1. You can use the once per day healing of a unit, or the healing spells of heroes/leaders that use mana and are usable both in and out of battle...

    Artificial Intelligence in games

    I just tested it in Morrowind. I lured a polar bear to the Imperial fort on Solstheim and a guard attacked it. My game is almost vanilla, only has Morrowind Code Patch 2.4 and Patch for Purists installed. I will put the screenshot in the screenshot thread and tag you there. I quickly googled it...

    Artificial Intelligence in games

    You're wrong on Morrowind, the guards in Morrowind will fight monsters if you lure the monsters to the guards. This was a thing already in Might & Magic 7. Creatures in Might & Magic 7 are dumb as bricks and would get stuck into walls but the monsters and guards will fight each other.

    Elder Scrolls Why Morrowind is a bad RPG

    First time I completed Morrowind, I played through Tribunal before completing the main quest. I think I started the Tribunal content in late teen levels and completed it in mid 20's. Naturally it trivialized the main quest after that but I didn't feel too underlevelled for the Tribunal content...

    Atlus Persona 5

    I've never used Forget since I assumed bosses are immune to ailments and I barely use ailments on normal foes. My Personas have pretty random and overlapping skills since I tend to forget which Personas that I'm not using in a fusion have which skills, when I'm fusing new Personas. The game so...

    Atlus Persona 5

    I'm pretty sure personas have 8 skill slots in P5 Royal. Don't know how it was in the original.

    Unreal Tournament is going down

    Late 2020 or early 2021. After that some servers started automatically flagging me as a cheater even though I think my installation was vanilla, not sure what that was about. Tried reinstalling the game, still happened. Maybe some anti-cheat program didn't like Windows 7 anymore, can't think of...

    Best Heroes of Might & Magic game

    I liked the Armageddon's Blade campaigns the most in HoMM 3. Restoration of Erathia campaigns are mostly too easy and Shadow of Death campaigns could get annoying at times. HoMM 2 campaigns are also cool.

    No, I never played the original Master of Magic much either.
