Geneforge is fantasy. Putting physics into it is pointless. After all, since when has fantasy ever followed the laws of physics perfectly, without breaking it at least once? Oh no! Im a Servile now! Curse you title! Curse you!!

Am I the only one to note that Aran hasnt been on (I think.) since this thread started? Maybe there's some truth to the conspiracy...

I do belive hes started it again. Excuse me while I go put earplugs in to block out the sounds of fangirl squeals.

Blades of AverForAdonLand Gate. Please excuse me while I go hide under my bed in a futile attempt to escape from this.

Personally, I recommend Avernum 2 to try out first. Its the game that got me hooked on the series. If your looking for eye candy, well...you wont find very much of it here. However, this seems to actually make the game better in my opinion. Games that dont strain my poor comp due to high graphics are the best kind. Exile is the original (and older) version of Avernum. It has more spells and weapons, but the graphics are...bad (an understatement) and talking to people can be a pain.

Originally Posted By: Earth Empires geneforge could happen in some far corner of upper world or other side of world so ............... No. Just, no. Please. Unless you want to kill both Geneforge AND Avernum, please never speak of this again. The pain is to much to bear for me. Besides, in Avernum, the Empire has already explored all of the continents. Terrestia is not one of them.

Originally Posted By: Earth Empires it gives you 10% more protection against weapons but spells and fists (and maybe giants rocks) do same amount damage on character than before. Im not entirely certain, but doesnt the +10% to Hostile Effect Resistance protect against magic? Even if the +10% Protection From Weapons doesnt protect against fists and (maybe) giants rocks, it is still worth it compared to the bloodspear.

GIFTS with santa hats giving out gifts?... "Hi! Your cute! Have a gift!" I think that would give some of us nightmares...

I'm never going to be able to look at a dog the same way again. Although it will be fun to go to a dog park and imagine one blowing up and starting a chain reaction. But im just crazy normal like that.

I have to wonder why the shaper had no creations with him. The lack of creations is the only reason he got captured, which only proves that you should have a swarm of creations with you. Ive gotten though G2 with no mechanics and low leadership by using creations. Your story just doesnt work.

You're assuming that you aren't already a bot, whether you are programed to not realize this, or you are aware but will deny it, I'm watching you! That sounds a awful lot like what a bot would say to keep from being found out. I've got my eye on you as well, now. On the topic of Secret Forums, I recently noticed this when I was checking who's online. Reading a post Forum: Richard White Games Thread: Down with RWG! And here I thought that forum was gone. Huh.

Originally Posted By: Dintiradan Originally Posted By: Tirien Hmmm.... Now I wonder if Ermarian has a version of santa, and if it would even be human. Synergy wrote a parody of 'Twas the Night Before Christmas, which used Patrick as Santa Claus. Let me see if I can dig it up... Patrick? Bah. We all know its Rentar who gives all of the presents. Of course, they tend to involve hordes of monsters, but their still presents!

Originally Posted By: Draloraelich —Alorael, who wonders why the rebels seem so markedly lacking in hippies. Yes, the moderately psychotic drakons are a downer, and the war in general is not amenable to flower power, but someone must want to hug all creations great and small. I dont think hugging a rot, gazer or a unbound would be a good idea... A fyora, maybe, a vlish, maybe, a roamer, maybe, as long as it isnt a unstable roamer.

If I do the reviving, then the mods will get me and replace me with a bot. Maybe thats what happened to Arancaytar...

One thing I can say, however, is that I've never had a creation go rogue or get confused, whether the AI was on or not. I seem to remember my 5 thahds with no intelligence from G3 beat me to death, but they may have just been charmed. Been a long time since that happened. Still, its probably better to play it safe and give them some intelligence.

The snow terrain would be fun to see, and it would be in the Christmas spirit. Doing quests for santa (or killing him) would also be fun. Hmmm.... Now I wonder if Ermarian has a version of santa, and if it would even be human. A Vahnatai santa would be kind of creepy. I'll have to try that, but dont expect me to ever manage to send a scenario in. The BoA editor is easily the most frustrating editor ive ever used. Maybe its that im just too used to the TES 3 construction set. Oh well. Feel free to steal my idea, people.

I think Master was referring to the fact that you didnt get pulled into the topic drift. Thank you for steering it back from a MMO Geneforge. The idea is almost as bad as Averforge is...

Yes, its currently known as the Avadon forum. Slith, your not alone in pming yourself.

Maybe someone should revive the Conspiracy Theory thread for this. Then we can all have a rational (aka, paranoid) discussion on the Conspiracy of the Mods.
