[quote who="twifightDG" reply="137" id="2416400"]Aestetics of the male elven mage were definititily the best for me. Did anyone else find the # of background stories to be lacking? Or was that just a limitation of the stand-alone char creator?[/quote]I did find them extremely lacking, yeah. Especially with the mage origin being shared between elves & humans, meaning (to me) that the humans only really have one origin. Again, I wish that the Human Commoner origin woul

I find the OP's suggestion insinuative, derogatory, discriminating, and sexist.[quote who="CariElf" reply="30" id="2416563"] One of our newer developers, Raa00, is also female. She's an excellent programmer, and even after only 2 years of college was better than a lot of the graduates I've interviewed for entry level positions. She's going to be graduating in December and then she'll be full time here. And we just hired a female artist. It's rather cool n

[quote who="twifightDG" reply="134" id="2415446"]I was kind of (well, not really "kind of"..) being sarcastic. You either are in doubt or have second thoughts, not having second doubts.

There really should've been at least one more mage origin for elves, that being the one of a Dalish elf, as well as the originally planned Human Commoner. I feel like there's only really one human origin with the other one being so rigidly set in class. Second doubts is part of the hyping process for me. I keep tossing and turning and wind myself up.

Even though this thread has been somewhat derailed into the DLC realm, I just wanted to state that my problem was never with the DLC itself, even if I think that they could've handled it classier by releasing it a month from now - or somesuch. Right now it feels like they finished the game months ago and haven't really been doing anything else, other than working on the DLC and waiting for the consolization work to finish. And that just sucks. They should've been polishing the

So what's everyone going to play? With the character creator out (even with the bugs) and the game about two weeks away it's time to start getting a bit hyped up and consider what you're going to play. First I was thinking a etnocentric Dalish Elf, Rogue->Ranger, but there doesn't seem to be that many elven followers and I have no idea if the ones that are are Dalish or Alienage elves. I'm thinking "the elf that is still elf" and want to rise up against the humans, etc. Elves are,

[quote who="Tridus" reply="60" id="2414850"]On another, but somewhat similar note comes this chart showing how complicated the pricing structure is on Lord of the Rings Online's newest expansion. Clear as mud, right? They've got a content pack, and something they really want to avoid calling a microtransaction called the "adventurers pack", which is really just a microtransaction. Microtransactions in a subscription based game, you ask? Yeah, which is why they want to call it somet

I'm thinking "Wow, this guy endured 40 hours of GTA IV" . That seems to be the only tangible feat and apparently others are agreeing with me. It's not that he played a game for 40 hours. It's that he played GTA IV for 40 hours.

What's so special about GTA IV? There's plenty of gamers that have played plenty of games plenty of times longer than 40 hours.

... No. Just.. no.

Oh noes. Imagine the horror if he'd install it on a third computer without telling Stardock. He could get sued for sure.

I don't know, but it'd make eating icecream a lot less enjoyable. What if.. say.. the Confederates had won the American Civil War? [e digicons]:pout:[/e]

I agree with the suggested game mode, as long as it auto-saves every single round both at the beginning and the end of a turn. But perhaps more importantly, don't make the AI better for the Ironman or Hardcore mode. You'd be artificially constricting the availability of said AI, making a lot of people that don't play Ironman/Hardcore unhappy - including me.

[quote who="elias001" reply="56" id="2413647"]the thing is..is Dragon Age origins a nonlinear game like Oblivion, or is it more like Bauldar's Gate?? Tha is not something that i am clear on. I have a feeling that it is going to be like Divinity 2. [/quote]There is a more general Dragon Ages thread for questions like this, but to answer it; Dragon Age is a more linear game, probably comparable to Baldur's Gate II - in my opinion probably even more linear since that's the way B

I'd like to see both. My preferred method would be to have mass quantity of sub-par troops, with a few very strong quality troops supporting them.

I could give you karma, but I won't.

[quote who="elias001" reply="54" id="2413469"]Luckmann, trust me, something as popular like Dragon Age Origins, someone will probably leak the copy onto torrent before the release dates a week ahead of time, and when the date of release comes, probably someone will crack the entire game and find all those extra goodies that people are missing due to their method of ordering the game. this is not something you have tow wait long. If you buy the game, then someone online will always

It wouldn't. If I knew my destiny and that was truly my destiny, it was probably my destiny to know it beforehand. Destiny is unchangable. Constant. I couldn't possibly change it, unless the destiny I was shown was a lie - in which case it doesn't matter, anyway. What if you were God?

A lot of people say "Oh, those small things doesn't really matter in the big game. There's other items that are better.". That's not the point! I'm sure that most of this stuff is stuff I'd never be using for my main character, even if I'm sure that most of it would see use in a game, with multiple party members. The point is that it's a constant annoyance that I don't have access to it, simply because of a marketing scheme! I want to play the game on release day just as much

[quote who="CrazyElectron" reply="1" id="2410260"]That is an absolute mess! Just by the standard game - I suspect within a week you'll be able to get everthing on e-bay anyway. Certainly better than trying to decipher that obscure collection of offers. Thankfully this seemes to be the worst offense against "exclusive content", however, I'd brace for even more rediculous setups in future. *shivers*[/quote]Exactly. I think a lot of people will initially turn to piracy, be
