Soccorro: Good night!

ddickinson: I think I will be calling it a night. I am still only getting a spinning loading thing on the chat, and the forum is acting up a little for me as well. Sorry to anyone I did not answer in chat, but hopefully it will be working again when I am next online.

I hope you all have a lovely day, and a great weekend! Take care.

*hugs and waves*

But does she? o_O :-)

Glad to hear you are doing fine. I am not too bad, been a long day and a few things not so good, but over all nothing to complain about (except maybe me being tired of this bloody coughing :-)). I did not get my results, sadly, but apparently they will definitely be on my doctors desk on Monday so I will go see her then.

Goodnight, Mr Crow!

CarrionCrow: I'm fairly sure that Moonshine isn't an AI program.

j0ekerr: I'm tired. I went to bed late and woke up early today.

And with that I bid you adieu.

I still haven't gotten Warband... let's see how close I can cut it!

CarrionCrow: This game does an excellent job of chewing through time. Turn it on, bounce from side job to side job, and before you know it a few hours are gone.

Stilton: Wish I could find something like it to play. Currently in one of those netherworlds between 'what shall I play?' and 'why the hell can't I decide?'

CarrionCrow: -laughs- I get that a lot. Any vague idea of what sounds good at the moment?

NoNewTaleToTell: ..zip..
Overall I highly recommend Divinity II! It's a great game, and it's a real shame that it's overlooked.

Stilton: I don't know. What's alarming is the amount of games I load and then uninstall because of a 'Ahh, that looks like too much hard work', kind of feel. My brain must be atrophying, or I really am the lazy bastard my school teachers always said I was... Something with a decent story and a mildly festive feel, if that's at all possible. To define this last completely subjective quality, it could mean cozily enjoyable, outright good fun, or with a bit of snow here and there. See what I'm up against? Its no wonder I can't get my head around what to have a go at.

CarrionCrow: Sounds slightly familiar, only in my case it's more a matter of installing a lot of games, then going on impulse to something else entirely.
Installed around 60 horror-type games, and what am I playing instead? Saints Row 3.

If you want something with snow and a story that doesn't involve huge amounts of thinking, Icewind Dale is coming to mind. One big dungeon crawl in a wintery setting. There's a bit of a learning curve, but it isn't too bad.

Stilton: That was my first thought, but I haven't played Baldur or Planescape yet, and I'd like to pick up on any developments in the engine or gameplay that might've come along by the time Dale was Icewinding. Anything with a good story would probably fit the bill well enough. A fantasy setting, too. Getting there now; I'm being a bit more precise.

CarrionCrow: Baldur's Gate and Icewind Dale both run on the same set of rules. You'll see some different spells, different magical items, but it's all based on the same thing, so the gameplay's going to be the same on that basic level.
Planescape is also based on it, but the interface is unique. None of the other Infinity Engine games have it set up the way that one does.
The tricky thing would be immediately shifting from Icewind 1 to Icewind 2. Icewind Dale 1 is based on 2nd edition AD&D while Icewind Dale 2 is based on 3rd. There are substantial changes to the mechanics across the board because of that. But, the games all have extensive manuals that explain the different gameplay aspects.
