Obviously, without divine magic, a wizard is "just" a wizard. But there's nothing specifically preventing a wizard from also being a priest. If a Sovereign sets himself up to be the self-appointed god of a nation, what's the prevent him from appointing his own priests, handing out magic to them as he sees fit? In a way, that magic would within that nation be considered divine - after all, it's handed out by the resident god. Other Sovereigns? Pretenders. Pompous charlatans and heretics.
[quote who="Denryu" reply="16" id="2327784"]One of the great things about magic is, although it should be internally consistent to it's world or universe, there really are not and should not be any ground rules. Creating that "plausible structure" is half the fun of creating a magic system or writing a fantasy novel or making a magic computer game - or at least that is what I would enjoy![/quote]From our perspective, I completely agree. Magic can be whatever we want it to be. All I want
Why would Magic contradict Science? Why can't there be a science of magic? There is simply no truth to such a statement. In most settings, there is a definite science to magic. It's limitations. What it can and cannot do. How do you research new spells? Is magic a fundamental part of the universe or not? Everything I've seen on Elemental tells me that magic is a fundamental part of the natural order, meant to flow freely around and through everything, hence the catastrophy when t
[quote who="RowSkin" reply="7" id="2327639"]I found the Encyclopedia Dramatica quite handy, it often has articles in it that Whikipedia doesn't so I sometimes use it instead.[/quote]Yeah. For example, it's the only wiki that has a good article on jews . All the others just doesn't feel as truthful.
Wow. And I think they'll all suck. The first decade of the 2000's will be know as the decade of shitty remakes.

I love how Spartan have updated the list of Wintersong musings by linking directly to his avatar, resulting in it changing every time Wintersong changes avatar. :D
Sounds like a few basic laws on the science of energy at large. I'd like magic to be a sort of science. Not everything or anything should be doable with magic. No-one should be able to do something completely retarded and then blame it on "y u so mad it's magic lol?" or "It's fantasy. Anything's possible. It doesn't have to make sense" . Lore-wise I'd like Elemental to really aim for internal realism. Everything should make sense within the context of it's own univers

Turns run continously in the background while the game is real-time. If I remember correctly, a round in Baldur's Gate consisted of 6 seconds, with every turn consisting of 10 rounds.

[quote who="SaberCherry" reply="25" id="2324165"]Personally, I like the idea. "OK, dungeon keeper, here's 50 gold coins. Now go into your dungeon and don't come out until you create a bow that shoots twice as far." ...a month later... "Masssterrr... I have made a new bow for your wicked killingses pleasure, mwahahaha! It does not shoot any farther, no, but instead it is more powerful, yes, and so easy to use that we can arm the street urchins
[quote who="Denryu" reply="21" id="2324101"]I thought Spartan verified with SD soe time ago there would be no NDA....wonder what caused them to change their minds?[/quote]To be fair, though, we haven't really discussed the Alpha. And for what it's worth, it's been said (in the chat) that the NDA is only for the Alpha and for a possible Gamma - not for the Beta.
I continue to be amazed by the art direction and I have to agree with others that I don't really understand the WoW-references. I can, however, see the point of it looking cartoony or fairy-tale-like. But in distinction from WoW/Diablo 3/Countless others, it's not a "wacky" kind of cartoony, but a serious, "realistic" kind of cartoony. I'm not a fan of ultra-realistic graphics, because they tend to.. well.. not be very realistic, in the end. I'd rather see a fullfilled, complete art d
Bioware hasn't been healthy since EA took over. I'm looking forward to Dragon Age, but it's by far the most "Whatever" in the history of Bioware. If it fails, I won't even be phased. If it's a great success, then it's "Yay" and a golfclap. That said, I don't think it'll actually fail . All I'm saying is that.. well.. whatever.
