Interesting comments- My husband doesn't play 3D first person shooters due to the same complaint. He'll watch our son play them to see the graphics and does ok...
... [mwirkk] Sure. What I was proposing wouldn't even necssarily need to be a scrolling FP view. It could be isometric. That would actually fit in quite well...
... It only started up in the last few years for me, but it's more like I get sweaty and feel cold, and then nauseous if I don't stop. It seems to depend on...
... Quite so, and that's exactly how I play it. For mines with traps I sometimes split the party into two groups of two, but the first person is always...
... Yes, me too, I didn't know much, but some on the web say some people it effects are just people that need glasses and don't wear them. As many as 35% of...
... Not me. I wear coke-bottle contacts, and I wear them every waking minute. But then, I can barely read street signs without getting carsick, so I think it's...
... Not me, either. I've had coke-bottle glasses since I was three (that's 42 years ago now), and I too wear them every waking minute. Because of past...
I suffered from this when I started playing Unreal Tournament with my co-workers ... and I always wear contacts. I'm also prone to getting car-sick, especially...
I know I have got mild vertigo on some games, like the Return to Wolfenstein game where you had to jump on a ski lift roof, and in a game called Urban Chaos...
... A top down isometric perspective also allows you to give the game a completely different feel. Its good to make the game feel epic, while a first-person...
Here is an answer from newly purchased Microprose. Me: Are you going to revive some old game projects from MICROPROSE? Curt Vendel (MP): Possibly, several...
Most excellent footwork Mikhail! You have confirmed for us, then, what Marty was hinting at. Thx!! -mwirkk YBL2 :) ... Forces and a few ... bring newer...
I've usually taken a nun up to abbess, for my religious character, though this time, I'm trying a noble heir who went to abbess. Not much difference,...
To be honest, I've yet to see a single reinvented company that resembled the old one it was named after in anything but--the name. Branding sells, more, they...
Yes. Even when some involved are former employees. Amiga comes to mind for me. We need not mention the "curse" that seems to follow some other names here. ;) ...
[mwirkk] I doubt not that everything stated here in this thread is but truth. :) But I wonder, how does the rationalization of such career paths play out from...
[mwirkk] {Preemptive "Shhhh": ;) I tried to exercise due diligence first, and did a keyword search of our archives without drawing any hits. So if this is...
Not necessarily. I was thinking just your run-of-the-mill, "every day" sort of evil. Thugs, pimps, pushers, traveling Bishops, etc. ;P But sure, *The* Evil...
My comment was meant satirically. I was trying to avoid emoticons, because they tend to be overused--but I really should have. If you knew me, you'd know I'm...
... They say you can find anything on google. I guess now you can find anything on youtube. A bit sad that for both of the gameplay ones the characters were...
You could get a strength of 98 for one character if it was a very veteran group, with plenty of extremely virtuous people all praying to strength- enhancing...
Pretty suspicious since their DFs were still at 99.. but I suppose by playing for centuries of game time one could get enough Schrat fruit. The End of 51 is...
Missed the part about 99 DFs, so your point is a good one. Still, I can't help thinking the person who made the video was hoping someone would jump on that. ...
[mwirkk] It's my guess they recorded with an edited party so they could demo with impunity. -Matt in Seattle :) ... [snip, -mwirkk] ... [mwirkk] Let me know if...
Just curious if anything like this is currently in the works, or has been done. You know the kind of thing I mean, if you're a regular player: holy items that...
You're not talking so much about Mods, where enhancements may be added via a set of public interfaces, but fixes or hacks of compiled, closed binaries. Folks...
Thanks for the explanation; too bad it couldn't have been more upbeat without embracing fantasy. Too bad it all has to be so furtive. One would have thought...
