#193962 Which skull?

Posted by Child on 19 March 2005 - 12:27 AM in Planescape: Torment

That's strange...
He should recieve any of them.

Thats really odd. Did he actually ask for them? OR did she offend him in the dialogue?

Hmm..other than that, presumably reset variables would work...

#194522 WHEN KOTOR3?

Posted by Child on 21 March 2005 - 10:02 AM in KotOR Series

And do waht .. 5 other expansions ?? It's a whole different story anyways ..

NWN. SOU. HOTU.

Unrelated stories. It kinda worked there (although I admit not very well, but that was a NWN failing in general, as in, NWN was bad, rather than being a lack of continuity problem).
MOHAA did it as well, need I remind you...and is still doing it apparently (see Pacific Assault).

#210279 What would you like Ruad to make most?

Posted by Child on 14 June 2005 - 11:52 PM in IE Modding Discussion

Thanks for the Post Cantrip - I now have the item list, so here's my next suggestion.

Bejeweled Tome of Combined Knowledge

Merella's Journal
Lellyn's Journal
Tome of Amaunator
How to build a Golem
Tanner's Letter
Book of King Stromn
Orc Cookbook

10 potions of Genius
10 potions of Wisdom

5 Star Sapphires
5 Diamonds
5 Kings Tears
5 Rogue Stones

This Tome permanantly increases Int + Wis by one.

And then add FFG's diary, which could be hidden somewhere, and call it +1 to charisma as well if you find it before you make the item

#210075 What would you like Ruad to make most?

Posted by Child on 14 June 2005 - 02:51 AM in IE Modding Discussion

Ohohohoh.....How about Nordom's x-bows. Dual wield x-bows (ok...maybe just reduce the speed factor..but you could pretend!!)

And a couple of the Axes that Vhailor can use.

(and maybe Fall-From-Grace's chastity bodice)

OR....what about FFG's diary. Gives instant wisdom bonus, and maybe dialogue like the Book of Wonder, or whatever from PS:T: The one that you just look at and can only say "ooh...ahh"

Or maybe, corrupting influence, and a big XP bonus?

Um. I have to stop obsessing about what might be in FFG's diary.... *whistles and slinks off*

#210072 The villains

Posted by Child on 14 June 2005 - 01:57 AM in Dragon Age Series

Um...Nazie-fying villans? Surely Hitler saw what he was doing as righteous and justified? He wasn't evil for the sake of being evil. And neither were the German people.............

#210133 The villains

I'd like to debate the H man more, becoz i could at least find a bit of good in him, but anyway....

Right..back on topic..

So, when they say a not obvious light vs dark, what do u think they mean? Are they simply blurring the lines. BEcause you could make it civilisation vs barbarism, and that would still be opposites opposing.

Or, by ambiguous, do they actually mean that there will be sides, and extents. For example, could i subscribe to one point of view, become disillusioned, and subscribe to bits of the other, and then take the middle road? Presumably they are gonna bottle out and make two diametrically opposed sides, and just not align then to good or evil?

#210808 The villains

Posted by Child on 17 June 2005 - 05:11 AM in Dragon Age Series

Yeah but once you have killed 1 person, killing another is not quite such a big deal, if you acted selfishly the first time...so things snowball. After 2000, whats another 40 hey?
And in ideas of restraint: I'll only kill 35 people..any more and it has gone too far?

In addition, a villain who only commits fraud isn't much of a villain. Certainly not worth going around bashing thousands of monsters to catch up with.

#210827 The villains

Posted by Child on 17 June 2005 - 08:17 AM in Dragon Age Series

You're absolutely right.
Politicians and CEOs who embezzle from the public purse and abuse trust should not be put to death, or jailed.
They should just do some community service instead.

Nah, ure getting me wrong. They should be reduced to living in poverty... but its not worth carving through monsters to do it. Its just so common and expected of politicans that its almost a requirement...

#210549 The villains

Posted by Child on 16 June 2005 - 12:52 AM in Dragon Age Series

Well, Irenicus was an usual self-centered power-mad type of villain. He was punished justly for an act which could have destroyed a whole elven city and even more. His only motivations (his trait from the start or innoculated to him by his sister, does not matter) is a crazy lust for power and vengeance for totally selfish reasons. It became a little bit repetitive.
As well, the villain is evil to the core. None of them does not show any restraints. That became a stereotype too.

The problem with restraint is:

I've killed 30 people. I need to kill this one to. BUT IT'S GONE TOO FAR!!! I MUST STOP NOW. *gives self up*

Or, to put it another way, where is the fun in combating a villain who, when it comes to the crunch, decides against going through with his plan. Why would he show restraint on lesser issues, and then still go through with the big plan? It would be no fun zonking Irenicus if, at the Tree of Life, he suddenly decided he had gone too far and gave himself up.

#210609 The "What did they take out?" thread

Posted by Child on 16 June 2005 - 06:44 AM in Planescape: Torment

Ok, so PS:T was released early, leaving lots of unfinished plots, and restricting the number of areas etc, compared to what would have been in the original.

But does anyone have official information on what is missing? Is there anywhere one can find out what they chopped, and what we would have got if the publishers wern't such fools?

#211421 The "What did they take out?" thread

Posted by Child on 20 June 2005 - 08:50 AM in Planescape: Torment

So what IS FFGs diary for?

Hm..im sure there was something else destined for PS:T that never made it but i cant remember what...

#210806 The "What did they take out?" thread

Posted by Child on 17 June 2005 - 05:04 AM in Planescape: Torment

I know that the secret room under the brothel was meant to be something much more then it was :glare:

Does anybody know if the following are right:

i) More entire areas within Sigil itself (I heard there were meant to be like 4 more wards somewhere...I mean, what's with only being able to go to the lower and clerk's...isn't there an upper ward?)
ii) Romance with FFG (What the heck other point does her diary have...do you ever get to use that?)
iii) The chance to be some of the other classes?

#205220 Tamoko Mod

Posted by Child on 17 May 2005 - 11:04 AM in IE Mod Ideas

Is it just me of has the Tamoko mod idea been kicking around for ages? Isnt it one of these things that never gets done? Its a nice idea...so keep me posted if someone starts to work on it....

#211425 Tamoko Mod

Posted by Child on 20 June 2005 - 09:01 AM in IE Mod Ideas

The Tamoko pic is really nice (if only because Devon Aoki is kinda cute...)..and it is pretty hot stuff as a baldurisation...but LOL at the armour vs lack of sex appeal idea.........
You can just see the argument:
Should i wear my full plate +2 which may save my life today, or should I go with the slinky chainmail, so i can look sexy?

Actually, knowing some of the girls i do, thats a total nobrainer... :blink:

#185274 Still would love to see this

Posted by Child on 31 January 2005 - 09:49 AM in IE Mod Ideas

Prob not the right place...but sorry? FFG has a romance? REALLY? Are you sure u dont mean Annah.....Ive read numerous places that FFG has no romance, and ive played through several times and never encountered it. Have i really missed this?

#185524 Still would love to see this

Posted by Child on 01 February 2005 - 11:58 AM in IE Mod Ideas

Actually, you could stick them anywhere...just claim they got spat out of TFoRegrets, and that they ended up there...as long as u have them initially confused that gets you out of everything

Hmm....i'd like to do an Annah conversion..but I think i need some modding practise first.....but thats a def maybe

#185622 Still would love to see this

Posted by Child on 02 February 2005 - 12:20 AM in IE Mod Ideas

Hmmm....more character development? Well, certainly it felt more like a realistic relationship....not all of it was smooth, and you couldn't work Annah out...which seems more realistic than a game in which many of the female characters fall in love with you fairly quickly, as long as you are even semi-nice to them....Its kinda the difference between being loved for who you are, and being loved despite who you are......

QUOTE
and the FFG romance is supposedly the best one Bioware has ever made.

(bah..i cant do fancy quotes...)

FFG. Fall-From-Grace....the FFG romance was mentioned in both of the two initial posts on this thread..and i was simply wondering if there was in fact one......because i know there is an annah one...but an FFG one i thought didnt exist

#192668 SPAM Split from Female Nameless One

Posted by Child on 12 March 2005 - 05:47 AM in Planescape: Torment

Besides berk, you have also the expression "you sod", which means your pretty dumb.

hmm.. i still like bubber tho :S But thanks 4 the extra words

Bubber means drunk (though I have yet to see the Nameless One under the influence of alcohol. Would that be included in this little mod? )

Try this small guide if you cannot find the word.

See??? SEE!!!! i didnt make it up *wins*

Thanks lurker

#205217 Something to think about

Posted by Child on 17 May 2005 - 10:57 AM in IE Mod Ideas

I'm not fully up to speed on AD&D lore, but isnt geas an absolutely uber spell? Given that most PCs are circa lvl 14/15 when they depart for spellhold, if that, wouldn't that make it kinda silly?

#190047 should i buy it?

Posted by Child on 24 February 2005 - 07:39 AM in Icewind Dale Series

And if you've got a few extra (insert currency here) then pick up the pack with both IWD and IWDII. It's cheaper than getting both seperately, and has bonus features.

IWDII over IWD tho, despite IWDII's hopeless lack of ending

#190861 should i buy it?

Posted by Child on 01 March 2005 - 01:40 PM in Icewind Dale Series

This has prob already come up, but is there a mod, a fix or whatever, that stops IWD chars looking round in a gormless manner in between the anims for weapon usage...its such a minor point but it annoys me so much that when I'm playing, and my char attacks something, he jabs, looks around in a totally neutral stance, jabs again, gets hit, looks around again as though nothing's wrong....

#190378 should i buy it?

Posted by Child on 26 February 2005 - 11:28 AM in Icewind Dale Series

I recommend IWD series and now you can get them all in one box ( IWD, HoW, IWD 2 ) at most stores. The Icewind Dale Collection is well worth the price (which isn't too high).

IS IWD 1 worth playing? I kept getting bored about 1/3of the way through... (around the point of killing the "strange looking kid.") Is it worth me going back to it, esp as i didnt like IWD2 that much (dam lack of ending)

#189788 should i buy it?

Posted by Child on 23 February 2005 - 02:50 AM in Icewind Dale Series

It's alright..not as good as bg2 though... or even bg. The problem is that the story line is a lot more general, rather than centering around you, and there is no true "you" character, as all 6 chars u create are given equal weight. There are also annoying ;little things, like the chars in combat taking a swing, then just standing back, looking around, until it is time for them to take their next swing...there is no sense of them being in combat...only an anim problem but still...all in all good, but not as polished as BG2. 82%

That was me
