Seasoned Roamer

Seasoned Roamer (5/17)

  1. I never got around to moving my stuff from a crate on Isle 3. I had a huge amount of crafting/enchanting resources and but only ended up crafting two things I think. Wish you could shape a damn pack ornk.
  2. The awakened are more or less 'good guys'. They're insufficiently careful about shaping but they basically respect everyone's agency and don't really want to go to war. Tuldaric is/was obviously a problem though.
  3. Hah good point. I didn't touch canisters.
  4. It's kinda wild that supporting the shapers is likely the more ethical path. Between canister-crazed rebels, and power-hungry drakon supremacists, it doesn't seem like 'lesser' creations are going to fare particularly well under rebel rule. The rebels are generating thousands of creations for no purpose other than to die fighting (or starve in an overpopulated environment) and they claim the moral high ground? The Geneforge series does a great job with moral conundrums, but I was surprised how far Jeff took it with this game!
  5. @googoogjoob Ahh right. A historical call back. At least now I know the rationale, thanks.
  6. I always look forward to the intro of a new SWS game. I appreciate the static visuals and framing text. Were there budget constraints with AV3 or something? The intro was really below par. It felt like it really minimised the epic nature of the previous 2 games, with kid humour and a puppet show reenactment. Is the vibe of the game different, or just the intro that's lacking?

    Early SWS releases

    Thanks, that was my memory but I wasn't sure!
  8. Was Exile originally released on Mac, or Windows? Or were they simultaneous?
  9. So charname using canisters is canon in G1 (and kind of necessary to experience the game as intended). Should the remake stay completely true to this, or should there be a canister counter like in 2, 3 and 4, with canisters being less critical to experience the various spells and shaping skills? Should the canister counter have more references/story impacts throughout the games? Is there a non-aligned ending that would work? How do you think the story of the 'outsiders' will be handled in the remake such that it fits in with the later games of the series?
  10. <boots up Geneforge 1 for the first time in years> Oh. This is why. All aboard the hype train!
  11. The link to Level 1 and 2 spell locations (cheapest/earliest) links to A:EftP info rather than A:CS.
  12. Sooo, playing as a guardian in G2, I avoid putting any points into melee until I get the 6000 for Brodus. And then I discover that it doesn't boost my base stat, but raises the cost as well. All that work and money for 2 ability points? I guess he's more useful for other classes.... Is that how training works in the other entries in the series?
  13. A bit of experimentation suggests that mines do energy damage. Only about 80% sure.
  14. Also, a variety of items give you energy resist. What counts as energy? Spirit attacks? Vlish? What kind of damage do mines deal?
