I said it was good :(
But bugs, BUGS. Bugs like that should not be present. Theres bugs in any game regardless of if you notice them or not. I'm not the biggest fan of ES games but at least the bugs were amusing in some cases. Everyone's opinion on games is different, I know you loved KOTOR, focusing strictly on gameplay I personally felt that it was a very poor adaptation of the D20 system (3.0/3.5 D&D) complete with half the abilities not being worth caring about.
It was pretty slow moving, tbh I can't ignore that either, it was like they were trying to choose between real time and turn based strategy, the hybrid didn't really work. It reduced the impact and excitement of the combat yet it wasn't developed enough to be turn based either resulting in a kind of sluggish back and forth. I like how Mass Effect done it though, it's like KOTOR combat was a blueprint for that. Imagine how awesome it would have been had they done KOTOR with ME combat.

Hey, as long as it's a Kepler, I'm satisfied.
I don't exactly have $600 to blow ya know >.> lmao I know.
Dread and I are goofy and like spending $750 on our GPU.
Well technically GPU's.
Well, I am due for a raise soonish, and my tax return and vacation money are due in March. If I continue to save, I should be able to sum up about $1500 or so. So I'll tackle a dream box with ya at some point later. All I request for you to let me have my case be the Corsair 650D Obsidian. That thing is a beaut.

Now then, do I watch 'the others', 'anaconda' or 'charlies angels' :o
Good film, lulzy film with awesome giant creatures killing terrible actors, or a lame film with hotties... Your taste in films....
Horrible.
Idk, thought "the others" was somewhat good, and Nicole Kidman was <3 back then.
other 2 movies... terribad.

Save those links for me too! I hope to get myself at least a GTX 670 FTW edition, so whatever HQ textures and lighting/bloom/blush improvements there are, throw em my way!

The game was 100% turn base Sagi. 1 round is 6 seconds, attacks and actions are all calculated at the start of the round and then a random animation from I think 4 was selected to give you eye candy when melee. It may unfold in real time but everything that is happening is happening based off those 6 second turns.

WRYYYY.
Hate spending an excessive amount on a case!
You'll get a corsair 300r and like every damn minute of it!

Maybe heat is more of an issue for you in FL.
I keep my room cool and my NH-D14 keeps my CP super cool.

Cause I'm weird about cases and aesthetics.
Just let me have at least one excessively expensive useless part, and the rest we can number crunch on. As long as I'm not being derp de durrr with what's under the hood, it should be okay. I don't mind paying a lil extra for that case :3
Though... The 300r certainly has it's own merit. /looks closer

Oh, I should clarify then, I meant the ability to pause combat and plan ahead with attacks rather than react in the moment.

Thats almost enough to go from a gtx 660ti to a 670.

Right now I have no AC, so my ambient temp is whatever the temp is for the day (a few degrees cooler for being inside, but still very warm) my CPU is fine. my GPU bakes. The other day before I put my external fan on the case my GPU was clocking 98ºc XD

Yeah thats bad.
I mean the 590 is a hot card to begin with.
Albeit in summer I sometimes turn a fan to my front case fan or side fan.
One of these.

I need to do something about heat on my PC too ... was talking with a guy and he suggested some aftermarket heatsink that looks kinda good, I'll see if I can look it up again lol.

I really like NH-D14.. I might invest in one. I could overclock my CPU so much farther with it. Right now I'm stuck at 3.5ghz (@ roughly 75c on the chip) on the overclock because my heatsink is pretty lame.

You're meaning to tell me with every other RPG, you put your ATB/Battle Speed to "Wait" instead of "Active"?

What CPU and speed are you running right now Uri?
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
