Afternoon everyone! [img]smile.gif[/img] Hope everyone is having a nice Sunday. Johnny, glad your birthday went OK and you found a few leftovers.

Xen good luck on that new computer. One of these days I need to get a new one myself. Well I'm off to try and finish my old Dungeon Siege game.

Cloudy I am making lots of DS screen shots as I go along to show you later [img]smile.gif[/img]

I'm playing Dungeon Siege too atm Wendy, how far are you exactly in the game ? I'm somewhere in the first town where they sent you to, exploring the forests surrounding it. I'm not sure what to think of this game though, it's just too much of the same thing over and over again. There's enemy's around every corner, and too much of mindless fighting. I'm sure i'll finish it sometime, but i'm not really motivated to continue playing like with BG2 or NWN, just to give a few examples.

Ladyzekke · 02-13-2005, 01:17 PM

I'm in the last chapter Johnny, Chapter 6. Trying to finish it, although I just got into Chapter 6 so no telling how much more I have to go. If you need a map Johnny, let me know and I'll PM you the one Saz has online, it really helps! Man I get lost so easy, hate that "Mega Map" which is not so mega LOL. Unfortunately Saz could not finish his walkthrough/maps, so this last chapter I'm on my own to get through, and of course I'm lost already, just decided to "go right" and now I'm up north somewhere LOL. [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

I agree the game is mostly a fighting game, not a huge story to it, so to some it can be boring. I like it though, it is really a nice game visually. [img]smile.gif[/img]

johnny · 02-13-2005, 01:50 PM

Is this world so big that i need a map then ? I'll let you know when i'm lost, i prefer to give it a try without any maps first.

Ladyzekke · 02-13-2005, 02:44 PM

Well the mega map doesn't show the ENTIRE map like in other games, just an overhead view of your immediate area, so it can be easy to get lost. Well it can be easy for ME to get lost LOL, I have a terrible sense of direction! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Ivelliis · 02-13-2005, 02:44 PM

I completed it without maps, but prepare for a LOT of turning around and heading back the way you've came.

If you use arcane magic, there is a spell "Summon Helper" or something. It's a little guy who runs around and picks up items on the floor, and gives them to you, your party members or your mule. Pretty cool, and helpful too

Cloudbringer · 02-13-2005, 03:13 PM

Goody, can't wait to see the screenshots, LZ! I've only puttered a little bit in DS but still get confused with the interface.

Attalus · 02-13-2005, 04:37 PM

DS sounds like a hack-and-slash, so I won't be getting it. I'm with Johnny, I like story toi my gameplaying, which is why I'm stlll on NWN Mods.

Ladyzekke · 02-13-2005, 04:59 PM

Yep, I wouldn't get it if I were you then Attalus!

Cloudy, yeah just wanted to play around and get some screenshots for you to see. I love zooming in and getting an action shot in battle! Looks like I've finished Chapter 6 now and onto Chapter 7, thought it ended at 6 LOL! I now have a race of Droog bowing to me when I walk by them, my quest was "Subdue the Droog" so I guess they are subdued! Heee!

Dron_Cah · 02-13-2005, 06:42 PM

Sorry, a bit late in answering you, LZ. I told you that, because of your joke, lol!
"Oh well LOL. Happy errr... Skinny Wednesday?

"
No real reason, other than that.

Anywho, I got to eat at the great Mexican restraunt close to home, for lunch.

I love steak... [img]smile.gif[/img]
Well, I should prolly start working on whatever homework I've been ignoring, so I'm going to go procrastinate. Later!
