Last night my wife came in to the study & told me I was addicted to this game & this forum. I totally agreed with her. Then she started telling me that I have a problem.
I dont think that I have a problem. I keep the W&W disk 2 permanently in the cd rom & Ironworks gaming on my favourites list on my browser. Where's the problem in that.
Oh oh she just came in & found me talking about her. Now I have a problem.

ohoh!!!

This sound like one of those situations where......Run Away,Run away!!!....Isn't going to work...

Wyvern · 09-09-2002, 08:35 AM

kev - LOL!! Would it help if we wrote her a note telling how good the game is and how great this board is? It's not like you're hanging out on a game board where there is more fighting going on on the board than in the game!

Does she play computer games at all?? Share your addiction!

Now back to the poll:

I've said it often in various posts here, W&W is one of the very few C(omputer)RPGs I have played in many years that I played beginning to end and thoroughly enjoyed! I would have to think a while to remember which other games I have finished in the last 5 - 7 years. W&W has all the elements I like best and some pleasant little bugs. I like that the world is not so huge that I get lost or feel like I've taken on a second career rather than a diversion. I love the flexibility of character development and the feel of the environment. There haven't been many games where I will load a particular saved game just so I can swim underwater or ride across the shire chasing a dragon. W&W gets a bigs thumbs up from me!

Hmmmm.... I first played D&D when I was around 13 or 14, so I know that swords and sorcery are of interest and available then. And I know that as everyone does, we went through some really sick periods of gaming, where we came up with things that really appealed to our twisted young minds... nowadays, that kind of stuff is on television after 9PM in the States.

As for the age the game is designed for, it's rated as a mature game. That means that in the States, in some places a store could get into trouble for selling it to someone your age. Go figure.

Personally, as long as you can keep the distinction clean between the real world and the Gael Serran, things are fine. Once you start thinking about how close you could send a throwing knife to the teacher's chair, it's time to take a breather.

Not that I'm encouraging mixing throwing knives and teachers together. My mother retired as a teacher, and most of the effective teachers I've seen might hurl that throwing knife back...

As for the game, I think it's a great challenge with a lot of intricacies, which makes it fun to play over again. Sure, there are a couple of bugs, but by and large, they don't detract from game play. The only thing I'd like to see is the W&W expansion pack...

LiOnHe@rT · 09-11-2002, 03:32 AM

yea i wonder what the W&W expansion would be like.........anybody wanna answer that question???

kev · 09-12-2002, 09:18 AM

I,m back,
A couple of nights away at work make all the difference.
No Wyvern I cant get her interested in any games or even the fantasy genre. She cant understand me or my kids. I wish that I could get her interested, but then who would do all the work around here.lol.
LiOnHe@rT. Look at Wyverns thread on what should W&W2 be like, I think it is on page 1 or 2. It gives a good idea of what the players would like to see. I just hope Mr Bradley reads it too.

Wanted · 09-13-2002, 07:25 AM

Hey Kev,
Its quite funny...in my house it is the opposite...I am addicted to the games and the puter...hubby can barely turn the thing on without help LOL....the kids and I love the playstation etc as well...he HATES computer games and hates us playing them....doesn't mind me being on the internet tho...so I can get away with that without being winged at LOL.

Ok in Aus W&W is rated G 8years and over low level annimated violence

Hmmm...my 15 year old daughter is itching to play it...but first she has to finish M&M6 seeing as she has barely got past Ironfist I think I am safe for a while LOL. [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Hey Wanted,
Do you have to kick your daughter off the pc everyday or is M&M6 on the Playstation. I was kicking my boys off continuously until they got a PS2. I've even managed to get a couple of save slots on W&W back off them.
I think this game could do with more save slots so that the whole family can play it.
My old man is a Queenslander. I met him in April after 31 years. He was doing the big tour with a Winnebago. I plan to visit Brisbane next March.
