What the fuck else did you play that beat Fallout 3's environment and where can I get a copy of this fictional game? Or were you just going for a record number of bad posts in this thread?

I can gladly confess that I found Star Ocean 3's models and environments to be better than Fallout 3's if you're looking for something else to be a prick about.

As soon as I post to seek your clearly superior approval, I'll let you know though.

A game can have aspects of it that are beautiful and still be horrific in the story/gameplay department (see: several nes/snes games)

Yeah, SO3 DID have pretty environments, even though it delivered in spades on the series' premise of being SciFi RPGs with consistently 0 playtime outisde of a generic pre-industrial hinterland.

Come to think of it, SO3 had TWO generic pre-industrial hinterlands.

Anyway as fun as it is to kick you in the head, I'll drop it now so long as you don't try some stupid-ass "hurr hurr last word" posting later.

[spoiler]Who the fuck knew that Arcane Warrior was linked to poking a clicky in a dungeon[/spoiler]

Between that and random b-b-b-books sometimes I feel a bit stilted trying to find my proper advancement options. Hell, I had to look up the above on a hunch and I'm still missing Blood Mage, yet I naively feel that the game will introduce a new PC or something to cover it and oh my God what if I spoiler myself?

King Klown · « **Reply #267 on:** December 04, 2009, 08:25:16 AM »

Here's a hint for Blood Mage.

Redcliffe.

And it's not the obvious answer.

Doom · « **Reply #268 on:** December 04, 2009, 08:29:02 AM »

Ahh, figures. I've actually done everything but Redcliffe. Thanks. I was afraid it'd be another "you didn't click on a background object in the Deep Roads" thing!

King Klown · « **Reply #269 on:** December 04, 2009, 09:03:55 AM »

Why arn't you holding down shift at all times during all parts of every part of the game.

NOW YOU'LL NEVER BANG ALISTAIR!

Norondor · « **Reply #270 on:** December 04, 2009, 09:11:31 AM »

Though, uh, i am pretty sure you still can't get Blood Mage unless you are, yourself, a mage.

Bal · « **Reply #271 on:** December 04, 2009, 09:19:29 AM »

[spoiler]If you're not a mage, you send one of your mage companions or Jowan in there. I haven't tried, but they might be able to do it in your stead[/spoiler]

Burrito Al Pastor · « **Reply #272 on:** December 04, 2009, 10:04:55 AM »

[spoiler]It definitely doesn't work if you get Morrigan to do it.[/spoiler]

Fallout possessed enough light side energy that even Bethesda could not wring all of it out, and was not as good as Fallout 1 or 2, and most of the DLC has been unrelentingly bad. I supposed it does deserve special mention as the first game Bethesda has released that you can enjoy without three times the game's weight in mods, or serious developmental problems, if i am to be totally fair.

Fallout 3 was better than Fallout 1, sry.

Also Daggerfall and Morrowind were good out of the box, provided you had a computer that could run them. The only non graphics related mod I can think of that was particularly essential for Morrowind was no more cliff racers for obvious reasons.

I think Oblivion was such a fucking terrible dissapointment out of the box that it's colored people's perceptions a little. Either that or Norondor does not like fantasy sandbox adventure?

Doom · « **Reply #276 on:** December 04, 2009, 10:49:15 AM »

This is my current game. Spoiler. Also, I am using a staff and giant fists made of stone. Otherwise exactly the same.

This is my planned second play-through as a Dwarf Warrior.

Your main has to be a mage to get the specialization.

I meant to say this the other day but then I forgot.

I used to be kind of irritated when Sten and Morrigan would give me grief over doing not-even-out-of-the-way plot-related tasks.

[spoiler]But then it turns out Sten's totally right and you don't need an army to take on the Archdemon anyway because all his mooks for the entire level have like 5 health even on Hard and fall over in a single Scattershot.[/spoiler]
