Yeah, that's cool but I'm looking forward to the spin-off series: Too Human Too. They're shipping at the same time.
@Archaotic: I knew I should have brought my DSM-IV today. Tragic mistake.
@Archaotic: I had never considered that people might have different opinions than me because they were mentally diseased. I always thought they must be demons in human skin. Good tip.
It's a pet peeve but I can't stand when illustrators have to tell you how long they took on a piece. It's a criticism dodge; if you like it you're impressed and is you don't, well then it was quick so don't complain. Then again, I've been forced to do it for my work on occasion so fingers point in all directions I guess.
@StuckOnRepeat: Oh, no, proofreading would just destroy the beautiful stupidity. It's so pure.
He "did not comply with her appeals to stop". I get the semantic argument but but this is pretty much the definition of rape for a lot of people.
@SGTalon: Wow, anti-science and you describe people as "retarded". What a "catch".
No, I'm pretty sure it would be a rectangle with gently rounded corners.
The best part was that they managed a little moral complexity. I actually sat and tried to figure out one decision for about 4 minutes(dwarf factions) without ever actually reaching total satisfaction. It wasn't until I went back later and played a dwarf origin that I felt like I really knew how I'd done(poorly).
@Jouen: Well I like your assumption even if a fair number of the other posts might argue against it. But yes, the very best thing that could happen would be PETA realizing they are getting in the way of issues that they supposedly care about and shutting down to let more sensible/ less tarnished people handle.
@Jouen: Right, but you're making a wider argument while this is a specific issue. Most of PETA's aims are in fact unrealistic and many would deny some basic human rights. But if you're able to look past PETA and examine the issue of elephants in circuses then the statement "Maybe we shouldn't be doing this." doesn't have to be agreed with but it doesn't seem too unreasonable either. It doesn't violate the condition of being realistic and you'd have to have an extremely broad view of human rights to think they covered that as well.
@Jouen: Once again, please understand, I'm not in favor of the organization nor do I think they should be free from attacks as they have certainly earned their criticism. I'm just bothered by some people who can't see past the fact that PETA is for or against something to actually address whether that is a reasonable view to hold.
@Jouen: Yes, thank you, I understand that and agree. I just wish that on specific issues, like the treatment of elephants in a circus, there could be a debate that wasn't just about attacking the group raising the topic.
@Jouen: Agreed, they are awful, but it doesn't follow that every opinion they hold is equally vile. Them being against something doesn't make it okay.
@yeahwellokay: Completely agree about the companions, Martha was my favorite and I actually skipped a couple of the Tate episodes due to a general sense of annoyance.
The books manage to raise genuinely interesting questions about freedom, social dependence, love, and personal responsibility for a modern YA audience. They do that while still being ridiculously captivating page-turners. Nothing about that isn't lovable.
@Dallasa: The hard drive does still cost them some money. So, yes, honestly I would rather they upgraded them much less often and instead offered an actual improvement on the package when it made economic sense. They could do more bundles, add in a voucher for a free game of choice from a list, have color options, put BC back in, or maybe do a small price drop(they don't actually have to come in 50$ increments). Not all of those things are important but at least they are more interesting.
Why can't they just do a price drop instead of the constant slow creep of drive space? Also while I'm complaining about pointless things I really would like that white option in the US finally.
@ninjacrusader: So your suggestion is that Microsoft has the power to block any one deal of this type and they decided to block ME1 instead of ME2. Reasonable.
Ignoring the nip-picking(oh no, 4 person party instead of 6, the world is upside-down)I miss a lot of the same things. At the same time I realize that asking a game to have fully customizable characters, be expansive, have a deep game mechanic, engaging story, and appear in 3 attractive dimensions isn't always possible given time and budgetary constraints. Not liking something doesn't make it broken, maybe it's just evolved into what can best survive at this time.
