Hmmm. Having played WoW and now LotRo, I don't think DND is like them and I hope 4E will not be like them. In LotRo, there is some overlap of special class abilities. Unfortunately, these abilities work regardless of type. So, if classes have a stun ability, it works on ALL creatures! If...

? I don't know about that. One of the things that I cringe at now when I watch older episodes, such as Planet of Evil, is the very unlikely outfits they are wearing. No pockets. No belt. Where do they hold things? Where do they carry things? Makes no sense. At least having them in...

I have this game for my DS and it does fit all of the criteria you want. Of course, it's a GBA, so the graphics aren't as good. It also doesn't have much of a story but there is one. However, the combat is exactly what you want. Grid style, turn based combat. Further, there is a safe...

See, that's what I saw as well. She started benevolent but I think she is convinced now that only she can lead them and be nice. No one else is good enough for the job. Reminds me of Rome. edg

Sorry, I wasn't clear. For me, I like it when actions build upon themselves. So, prior to this, when have seen Tori do anything that would make us watch this and say, "yeah, I can see that." I don't think we have. I think what she did was very much out of character based on what we have...

After reading what I wrote, I wanted to clarify some things. While some of it is tongue in cheek, I do think the Doctor has let people die. I do think, in general, that the writers put him in the situation of needs of the many versus the needs of the few, i.e. a hard decision. But I still...

This is mostly from memory. The first Doctor barely cared about Ian and Barbara, much less others. He gladly let people die, in Romans, Aztecs, Daleks, although he tried to do good overall. The second Doctor was better about it, overall, but it's tough to say as I have only read his...

Mustrum: Good points as well. :) It wasn't just the movements of the basestars! It was their expressions! Wait. No, I guess I meant that in the scenes with the cylons, I figured out that Al, er One, was going to betray them. I was confused about the cylon cleaning the blood but...

I like this season so far. I am mostly nit picking. I just didn't get that from what I say about Tori. She gave the speech about not being evil but then coldly, imo, pressed the button and killed Cally. It didn't seem to work for me. Same for Lee and the meeting. I couldn't tell why he...

Hmm. I don't know if we really have seen an overall compassionate Doctor. I think that's why he realizes he needs a "mate" traveling with him. What I mean is, all incarnations of the Doctor, IIRC, have not necessarily cared about individuals and have let them die. It's only when...

I also managed to avoid any previews or spoilers, so all of it was new to me. And I found it a bit lacking but I think it was me. I liked the character of Cally and was sorry to see this happen to her. I also didn't care for Tory, cylon or not. Not hate but apathy. I just didn't care...

PC - LotRo. Sometimes Supreme Commander, Gun Metal and some poker but most of it is LotRo. I have several games to start or continue, including NWN2, NWN2 expansion, Witcher, Jade Empire SE and some others. However, as much as I like them, or want to like them, they haven't pulled me into...

Finished Butcher's Small Favor. Finished Armstrong's Personal Demon. Reading Tanya Huff's Blood Trail. Also reading a few books from mental_floss, like the beginning of everything. Usually read these before going to sleep. Waiting for the next Sookie Stackhouse book. edg

To the OP's question: We don't see a Jedi do a deflect blaster until RotJ, yes. As I am sure you know, though, players want to do the "cool stuff" right away. So waiting on that is probably not the best idea. I think that's why the RPG lets the characters do some cool things right at first...

My wife got the latest Harrison book and read it very quickly. She loves the Rachel Morgan books. I read books 1 and 2 and was half way through 3 before I put it down. It didn't pull me in like it did with her. As for myself, I haven't been reading much but the next Kelley Armstrong book...

My wife and I were not happy when BW was canceled. I liked the family stuff. It allows a show to have continuity, even if the rest of it is the "adventure of the week." And I couldn't watch something that didn't have continuity. I guess we wanted to see it get a second season to be able to...

I would allow that! I think it's a great idea! Kaylee: ...Theres some kind of hot cheese there. Mean Girl: It's not as good as last year. Kaylee: Oh, what did they have last year? Mean Girl: Standards... Kaylee: Oh... edg

I will be on the edge of MY seat wondering what comes next! edg

Oh my BOB!! I am sorry if this has been posted but this is the first time I have laughed out loud at work enough to disrupt a co-worker! This was funny! http://www.cracked.com/article_15986_30-things-that-should-never-be-adapted-film.html (There are two pages but I think they are all worth...

Too many. I spread myself thin across games. Supreme Commander - Not very far into it. NWN2 - I load it up, do about three things, not quests, and then go eh. I like it but had too much downtime and now don't remember everything. I don't want to start over, though. Maybe I will try MotB...
