#214608 Progress report

Posted by Althernai on 10 July 2005 - 01:47 PM in Return to Windspear

Glad to see you guys are still working on it. How long has it been? Half a decade? At any rate, good luck. I hope you can finish it before Dragon Age comes out.



#196168 Solars, deva, planetars

Posted by Althernai on 27 March 2005 - 09:30 PM in Delusions of the Mind

As I recall, there is just one deva in NWN (in HotU expansion, more precisely, in Underdark). Is that the only one or there are others which I miss ?


That's the only deva in the official campaigns. There is also exactly one planetar in the same story (taking a very long nap in Baator).



#191261 Raise Dead

Posted by Althernai on 03 March 2005 - 07:22 PM in Dragon Age Series

If they made it so party members 'Dying' wasn't always death, but could be them knocked out.

That's basically what they are going to do. I don't think everyone understands what they meant by "no resurrection." Death will indeed be final -- but a party member going down in combat will not be dead. It sounds like the system used in KotOR1&2.

How do I know this? Well, consider this post:

I am extremely curious to know if any of the other characters in your party will be central to the main plot (like Bastila in KOTOR)

Yes.

If there are characters as central to the plot as Bastila was in KotOR, they can't very well die in combat with some random, irrelevant enemies, can they? So in all likelyhood, a character will fall down upon dropping to the equivalent of 0 HP and you will be able to heal him up after the fight is over. The battle doesn't end until all the enemies are gone or the entire party goes down.



#187996 When fallen celestials...

Posted by Althernai on 13 February 2005 - 12:57 AM in Delusions of the Mind

Remember that Redeemed Fiends and Fallen Celestials are nearly unheard of - Beelzebul and Belial are the only two examples of fallen celestials that I can think of, and truthfully, I cannot think of any canon redeemed fiends (though I've never played PST, and from what I've heard, Fall From Grace might qualify.)


Fallen Celestials are actually quite common. Think about it -- out of the 9 Lords of Baator, 2 are Fallen Celestials. You don't hear about others very much because they are generally not that important, but it's a fact of life that Good cannot come in contact with Evil and remain purely Good.

Redeemed Fiends, on the other hand, are quite rare.



#181882 Lords of the Nine Hells

Posted by Althernai on 15 January 2005 - 02:49 PM in Delusions of the Mind

That answers it pretty well. Thanks.



#181761 Lords of the Nine Hells

Posted by Althernai on 15 January 2005 - 12:36 AM in Delusions of the Mind

What exactly was this Reckoning? By what you've posted so far, it sounds like some of the Lords were stupid enough to revolt against Asmodeus and got their posteriors handed to them. However, Asmodeus didn't seem to do all that much about it (or did he?).



#157479 Flaws?

Posted by Althernai on 28 September 2004 - 07:06 PM in Longer Road

But ask yourself this question: how much is it vital? Vital to the point of becoming the mod's major flaw?

If that is the mod's major flaw, then I am definitely very interested in playing this mod. :lol:

I haven't tried it yet because I've vowed to play no computer games until December (and instead I hangout on forums... great...), but seriously, do you really think something like this is a 'major flaw'? For instance, I would actually very much prefer Jon's old self to a generic male elf.
