@Liso
Sometimes, in fact pretty often, a game will start out great. Plenty of good ideas and well done. Typical because builders often have much more motivation and creativity when they start a project than when they get near the end. However as it progresses along it gets less and less interesting or more and more repetitive. I may love it at first — good unique concept, interesting dialog etc — then at some point start to get bored by it or start running into bugs. Maybe the author didn’t develop the story well and it stalled or got bogged down dwelling on some unimportant thing in the middle. In NWN with the vast array of alternatives around it should not surprise you that people will abandon a mod like that in the middle to go find something that better suits them…
As an example…I’m not a fan of character romances at all. There have been several mods that I started which had a descent adventure story and good action then at some point in the middle got hung up having to deal with some silly romantic subplot or politically motivated gender preference (or ) propaganda inserted. So I bailed
Axe doesn’t like real-life creeping into his fantasies.
that should say
(or – pick a topic -)
near the end there
Excellent… a new show. Two weeks is a long time. Thanks to all…
Great interview. Glad the technical difficulties were overcome in the end.
Finally! *listens*
Good show *thumbs up*
Axe Murderer – you have no idea how amused I am! Someone actually responded! and listened to me! lol I’m flattered even! hehe
Awesome interview Shadow thieves!!
Guys, as always, I had a blastoriffic time with you recording!
Until next week!
Liso
Ooops! forgot!
Milk & Cookies!!
“Rice Milk for Dave!”
Thanks for the rice milk! I’m on the road and haven’t gotten to listen yet (you wouldn’t believe the patched together ‘puter I’m on … ugg) .. I’m sure it’s awesome.. I’ll know Tuesday when I get home.. sorry to hear about all the trouble.. but happy to see the ‘cast up. *munches some cookies.. swigs some rice milk*
Yet another quality show. I have a 100th show question. Since you folks (a long list here) have been putting on this show for 100 episodes for us the community, what have each of you gotten out of doing this show?
and don’t say “the money”, because everybody says “the money”……LOL!!
Good show! Glad to see another PW doing well with great plans!
Michelle, I haven’t finished the OC in any of the NWN series, although I’ve played them all up to the end. I just never was able to beat the end bosses. OR I’ve gotten bored and had an “Oooooh, SHINEY!” moment with something else.
Oh, yeah! If NWN2 dwarves had REAL dwarf beards (as in long and tuck ‘em inta th’ belt), I might actually get my builder-with-the-soul-of-a-dwarf back. As it stands now, he snorts, spits over the wall, and keeps walking!
Dragonstar
I have a lot of those “shiny distractions” So I can relate! hehe Thanks for the feedback!
Michele
*laughs at the rat
Money? “looks into pockets” sighs……….
Rat. Truthfully. I am looking forward to answering that one! “evil grins”
I think most of our listeners already know we ain’t paid a dime.. not a thin one.. not a thick one.. not a dime… nor merchandise… *sighs with liso*
I bought a mug and a BBQ apron… I’m spending money on the podcast..
Yes thanks, RoAnnon!! I hear StrikerB put up a big hunk too!! Thanks for all!! I’m not part of that bit of the podcast.. The crew is smart enough not to have me in charge of paying bills! I was just letting people know that any money that does find its way here (thanks again!!) goes straight to server hosts, etc.. Ya know.. maybe we’d drum up more donations if we put a cost sheet up.. and put up the plans of what we could/would do with the money.. and let people earmark donations?
Speaking of what we’ve done.. has everyone checked out the vidcast that Skunk’s runnin’ .. it’s not just that one video up in the corner.. there are a lot of vids up there.
Ok.. gotta run and get some coffee… hmm.. where’s my mug… hmm.. CafePress anyone?
I play with a top-down view when playing on Neverwinter Nights, I simply can’t play it as over the shoulder, but I still use the “w,a,s,d” keys to move
WesLAN – I actually play both. top-down when I am trying to scout areas because I am directionally inept! lol And over thw shoulder because aim is better for me. That doesn’t really apply to nwn2. but in several games it does.
@Liso.. I can buy games and not finish them.. because I like to build… and as soon as I get to something that makes me lose my “suspension of disbelief” I drop the game and start to build.
All this talk of other games.. has anyone out there written a hack so I can use my Wii balance board to control my NWN avatar and the numchucks to swing my sword?
I liked Gallows Bird. It’s cool to hear all the lovely accents. Was that a reference to Behind the Green Door? Coming from Skunk my guess is yes. Good for you Ashercon in not watching it.
I can not claim so much virtue myself. So more ammunition for my characterizations.
The only Neverwinter Podcast certainly and always will ROCK!
Thanks for a good laugh.
