Haer'Dalis - Interesting dialogue!?

"Sparrow... ehh... Free as a bird... Wind... "
Dont tell me much.

I´m more for the "Jump on my sword evil, I wont be as gentle!" kinda "discussions"

Filosophy - Thanks but no thanks.

 

Does anyone else detect a distinctly YMCA thing going on between all the Radiant Heart members. They seem to love that place....
YOUNG MAN etc.

 

Hmm, I can't stand Nalia's "must help the poor while no one sees me doing it" attitude. I figure, if you're gonna do something, do it wholeheartedly, you know? Also, as much as I love Anomen, there comes a time when I want to kick him out of my party, especially when he calls Jaheira a wench, that just pushes my buttons! But, you're right, Beren, in ToB, he definitely evolves into a better character.

 

I hate Nalia just because she is possibly the worst constructured character I have ever seen.
BG1 included.
I mean, what's the damn point in having a mage with pure crap in thieving abilities? Why not just a pure mage?
Nalia is so pointless that it is downright sickening looking at her character sheet.

 

I pretty well hate all the evil characters -- they leave just as you start to get good discounts! Yes, I know about the "Happy Party" mod, but a) can't install it and b) wouldn't even if I could because it makes the whole Rep thing kind of pointless if it's just about money.

Anomen is a prat, but a useful prat. Nalia is horribly constructed but I find her approach realistic -- she's a noble trying to do good but still constrained by her upbringing. I like Valygar's comment to her about her parents -- "be glad you had sane parents" and then he goes on to say that it could always be worse.

Who doesn't love Haer'Dalis! He rocks! Same with Jan -- he's the best non-evil spellcaster character out there, IMHO -- his versatility rocks!

 

Th1wl,

Nalia is not in BG1...

 

i don't get the point why you can hate npc's just because they are evil. i think this topic was meant to get some opinions about the whole stuff AROUND their alignment - what they say, do or even how good they are in their class or role to play in your party.

considering this i can only chant again : evils forever.

hmmm haer'dalis would be my favourite char if he only wasn't stupid bladebard ...

 

I really don't hate any of them yet...haven't gotten to all of them as of right now, but I certainly dislike Anomen. He's a wimpy fighter and has really crap spells...plus whenever you click on him he says something like, "If I must..." But maybe the crap spells is because I didn't have him very long. I traded him out for Jan, who I like a lot better. Besides, in my current party I really didn't have any need for another cleric. I already had 3...I needed a mage.

 

Alexander: He meant that she's more poorly designed than all the BG1 characters.

 

Anomen is NOT a wimpy fighter. He's the best after Korgan in my party. And you don't need any STR-modifying items for him. Just get him to pass his test and he'll be fine.

I don't like Jaheira very much. And well, Imoen is sometimes irritating.

 

why do people seem to be so obsessed with homosexuallity. (this is based in comments a fare way back - 22 of june, well only 5 days.)

Jees, Cernd has a son, Hear'Dalis will dual you for your love intrest and Anomen is still, what, like 20 or something, he's just arrogant.

With Knights of the Order and the YMCA comment, its because, back when BGII was set men were a bunch of shovanists and weomen would not be let into an order of knights. Also, the average life expectancy would be, what, about 30 this narrows it down to YOUNG MEN!!

Sorry if I have come down a bit too hard, but I wanted a legitimate answere, not based on ones sexuality.


No I am not a homosexual!

 

Stu, I have to agree with you.

The forum rules state:

I would have hoped that the “whatever” part would extend to sexual orientation as well, but unfortunately this appears not to be the case, otherwise presumably the moderators would have cracked down on this long ago. I would be willing to bet that there are a number of SP members who are homosexual (just based on statistical probabilities), so these types of comments are hurtful to them, and are offensive to a number of us who are not homosexual.

I think that, in this day and age, we should be a little more tolerant of people whose sexual orientation is different from the rest of us. In Canada, gays and lesbians just very recently won the right to legally get married, so to me, attitudes that we sometimes see on these Boards seem a bit outdated and juvenile.

Edit: As per Tal's instructions here, comments on this should go in the other thread and not in this one.

Stu - The Forgotten Realms is a fantasy setting, not a medieval setting. If you will look, the game information says that men and women are for the most part, regarded as equals. Likewise, people in FR can expect to live over 50 (in human terms), assuming they live normal lives. Take a look at Keldorn.

But this is off topic.

I really don't have a least favorite character. They are all well-designed, well-thought out, and interesting (even, nay, especially Cernd!). Hats off to their creators.

 

Least favourite character would have to be Jaheira. Not sure why but there's something about her that just bugs me. Maybe that she was carried over from BG1 whereas great characters like Alora and Tiax were missed out.

Anomen I think is a pretty decent character. I find his continual boasting amusing, particularly when it happens right before a fight in which he gets his ass kicked by a bunch of orcs.

 

i don't think anyone is discriminated when someone calls the most noble order of the radiant heart = YMCA ... this is just a joke and it is an ingame joke. those who keep to be annoyed from this kind of jokes are the ones who blame theirselfs (and maybe other gays) and let the subject matter still be hot.

btw don't you all remember garrick and his gnome cyrando trying to romance a female paladin in front of the order's building ? so ... lol.
