    Started playing Arcanum again.

    A wonderful game, let down only by lousy graphics and really horrible gameplay mechanics.

    It could have been as great as BG2! Ah, the wasted potential.

    Perhaps I should get Arcanum then...

    Is it possible to be an obnoxious goodie-two-shoes in that game?

    [​IMG] The game's so bloody hard at the beginning that you WILL have to be an obnoxious goody-two shoes to get through unless you're damned good or lucky. :p :p :p

    The gameplay is horrendous, though and the character development system utterly sucks.

    It's redeeming factor lies in it's awesome story and intriguing game world.

    Get really good and exact revenge when you are good enough to beat him. What a nasty little person he must be - i hope something moideratly bad happens to him in the real world, like losing his wallet and having his bank account wiped out.

    *hugs 8people* People are mean. Thank Whatever for computers...

    *hugs Chev* Come one, no need to kill me! It was MY idea and HE stole it! I'd at least chose a more flattering dress for you!

    On the other hand, life sucks.

    Hey Rotku, I can send you my copy if you want. The game is great. There is a wav at the end of the game where one of the character's says "Save your money for Arcanum 2". Sounds promising.

    Bad day, bad day for me and my site. It seems I should have gone see a doctor when I hit my head on that door frame a month ago, my poor ears...

    What's more, some script on my site, a very important one, won't work in Netscape, Phoenix and even IE in some cases. But normally it works in IE and Opera, so WTF could possibly be wrong is beyond me. And it doesn't use IE-exclusive coding. Eh.

    Three coffees so far, alive for 8 hours.

    *sígh*

    I have come to the conclusion that life sucks.

    Wait, I knew that.

    Now, on the other hand, my sleep patterns are totally whacked once again... *grumble*

    [​IMG] Just a few more days til Spirit begins to explore the surface of Mars.

    This is extremely exciting - given that this robot can explore more in a day than the "Rover" did in its whole mission.

    I'm surprised it didn't get lost like the last three dozen they've sent there. I'm counting the days until something goes wrong and they loss contact with it. Prehaps mars will revolve, like planets tend to do, destroying all radio contact that they had with the thing, and lossing yet another Mars explorer thingy. Who knows.
