Damn, I will have to try it then.

See that? That's sophisticated technology. You have to work for it. You have to earn it.
AI of complex games is poor, because it just can't be done on current computers. I have translated a few contributions of my friend who does AI research on academic level, so I have read quite a bit on the subject. However, there are things that MoM still does better than FE, namely: UI - the UI is much more consistent and ergonomic, especially with the latest unofficial patches that allow you to right-click almost anything. FE has a terrible mess of UI, every screen follo

[Facepalm] and also, critical chance still affects spells.
Yoda on this thread: "Hilarious, this thread is. Like an amnesiac centipede, counting its own legs."
The tablets are great! Just pop a few and your cold is gone in no time... oh, wait...
Well, you have to chose, i am afraid - you either get a linear (or semi-linear game), and a good story, or you get a sandbox-style gameplay with a lot of freedom, but the story will lack the dramatic pacing. If you want the opposite side of the spectre, try Dwarf Fortress - the adventure mode and the Legends provide hilarious emergent stories, but the game is not very accessible. Also, GTA games offer a lot of freedom with hilarious story bits, and I consider the games very well desig
Well, Valve impressed me a lot with Portal. A puzzle game based on a single, essentially simple idea with such modern production values and polish, and utterly original at the same time, that is really something. The "Portal Song" from the credits of the first game is probably the most hilarious game outro I have ever seen.
Congrats!
39 years old, male, Czech, chronic geek. I own Galciv 2, Sins of the Solar Empire from Stardock. I play anything I can get my hands on, and I plan to keep doing so until the Death himself will knock the gamepad/mouse/joystick out of my shaky, wrinkled hand. I thought I am by far the oldest in this bunch, and it seems that I am pretty close to the median. My friends always scorn me - an adult guy like you, and you still play stupid computer games! What can I
Basically, it obscures your view and locks you out of the game unless you decide which path you want to upgrade. I find it very inconsistent with the rest of the game, where you can decide when you want to make your decisions. I would like to evaluate the geo-political situation first, is this a border town, or some lush farmland in the center in my empire? The game does not present this opportunity. Overall, the UI of the game is not very consistent, with this being one
I highly recomment a recent game called The Dark Eye of Satinav. It's very linear, but beautifully drawn, and the story, at least for me, is captivating. Best adventures I have ever played (some are not pure adventures): Gabriel Knight 1-3 Dreamweb Perihelion Silent Hill games (considered as "horror survival", but I play them for the narrative) To the Moon Dark Earth Tangle in the Web (Interative fiction) Zeno C
I smell a heretic.
I mind the gameplay bugs much more, to be honest. If they fix them, they can even uglify the rivers as much as they want for all I care. That said, I don't mind the rivers, and they don't spoil the game for me.
But that's very awkward. I think cursor keys and/or mouse at borders is more or less a standard today.
3) Probably, if it the dice are really lucky ;-)
Fun game for you - count your fingers with a hammer. Nietzsche called it: "Counting with a hammer".
Or if it can be, I did not find how. Moving mouse towards screen edges does nothing, cursor keys do nothing. Only zoom works, and middle mouse button changes camera angle, but I cannot move around the map.
I specifically remember, that I checked the spell resistance before and after clicking USE and it was 7 both times (did not change). So either the bonus is applied even for having the item in inventory, or there is some other, conditional bug. What I am sure of is that when using the item, the Spell resistance value did not change.
An item gained by defeating a Darkling Shaman. Should give +3 spell resistance, has no effect when used (on Lord Relias).
Frogboy - Just out of curiosity, how much more than those 50 000 sales do you need to turn profitable (Elemental costs excluded, just FE development). I understand that it may be a confidential piece of information, but still, I am curious.

[quote who="JaboJoggins" reply="2" id="3271361"]I observed this as well. It is a weird multiplication, where if you spell resistance is already negative, adding more negatives makes it a little more positive. haha clear as mud. [/quote] It's magic. man. It ain't done by them numbers. Here, pass the reefer...
FINALLY! Let's hope the rest of the world will follow. The use was probably so widespread that the police costs for chasing individual, harmless stoners outweighed the profits from reselling the confiscated pot on the black market - and since we have that crisis going - they legalized it. Burgers and cola kill much more people annually than all illegal drugs and terrorists combined.
[quote who="Mulfia" reply="2" id="3270677"]Not to be a stickler, but .. plate doesn't really protect you versus blunt very well. In fact many weapons were designed to be blunt simply to counter the plate. Heavier plate was never used dismounted for the most part because of it's cumbersome weight. In truth you were much better suited wearing chain. -5 protection from blunt! Mehehe.. [/quote] That has been said many times, blunt weapons like hammers and maces and flai
More info would be necessary to determine the problem - I assume your monitor's native resolution matches the one you use in the game (since options screen is okay). Check your drivers settings, and try to switch off the postprocessing AA types like MLAA, FXAA, since they can blur 3d rendered text if the game is not specifically designed to use them. Maybe try to run "dxdiag" in your command console, and save the output to a file, and post it here, so that we can know more
