EndreWhiteMane: Need a new video card before I can play it properly so I'm not sure.
I'd probably just do the enhanced edition since they're so similar.

Doing OK today and very glad you're having a 'better than usual' day".
*big hug*
I don't know why I want to do the original first. I guess as if I like the game I will be curious what the other version is like, and it is often easier going form an older game to the newer version than it is the newer to the older due to the newer mechanics and things.

Glad to hear you are doing okay. But just okay? Hmmmm. Would it kill you all to get better and things and all be great? :-)

I am not to bad, I had a little thing this morning that was a bit of a worry, but other than that my health is not too bad today. It has its up and downs.

*big silly hug*

ddickinson: So am I strange in thinking that I would play the original first and then the new one, given how the new one makes changes to the story and things?
Definitely not but i guess replaying the game would work in both directions. Other than the new voice-acting and the reworked ending (and some other stuff) all other changes are more of a "nice-to-have" category so replaying the original after the EE should be possible as well - same as the more logical "original first and the EE" way :)

AgentBirdnest: Yeah, it's very sad. I try not too watch too many documentaries about it these days, otherwise I tend to lose my cool :-p

Hum... I don't know. Newer games on Tuesday does seem to be the trend. D:OS sounds nice, but I don't consider that a "new" release. More of an update :-p I hope we would get something in addition.

I'm logging off for a while. Just in case I don't see you again, I hope you have a lovely day, and very lovely vacation :-)
*extremely big hug*

See you later everyone! And hello Endre! :-)
Lets hope for a new secret remastered version of NOLF that stays true to the original and has Sigourney Weaver as a voice actress in the game. :-)

Take care, lovely Agent. Hopefully I will see you again once I come back. You take care of yourself.

*big mega hug*

EndreWhiteMane: I'm sure many will do it that way. I was thinking the second time around might be a bit boring.
I'd rather get the best experience possible on the first playthrough.
I think if they had not mentioned new story elements and things I would maybe have stuck with the new version, but I don't know. I tend to like to play the originals first to see how well the improved version really is, but I can see how that will take a lot of time with an RPG.

I look at it this way. If it is a good game I will want to play it again someday, so that way I can then replay it using the enhanced version. And if I don't like the original for some reason I can give the enhanced version a try instead.

That's a good way to look at it - i think one of the reasons i wanted to wait was that the EE supports Linux unlike the original version :).
But i won't have the time to playit any time soon anyway - so i can actually rethink my decision when i have time ;)

I doubt I will either, so most likely I will settle for the Enhanced version first in the end. I guess if I like it that will give me the drive to play the original one for a while to see how different they where. But it also depends on the system specs, I would assume the newer one requires higher specs, so maybe I won't be able to play it.

Nothing for me with the new releases, but then I am not big on D&D. Judging by the reaction to the last lot of D&D games many people will be glad to see the old games here.

How is your day so far? I have just finished putting the finishing touches to one of the presents for my partners birthday (just a silly little extra present that I won't be able to do while we are away), and also sorted something for my mum.

*big hug*

The minimum graphics requirments for the new Pathologic Classic HD remake seem quite high, especially given that the graphics still look very outdated.

Cool, thanks.... and what about Pathologic ?... do you know it / played it / heard about it ?
My day is cool so far, thanks ! :) only 2 at the office, listening to some music at the moment and watching out the little wandering adventurer kitty...
Ho, cool !!! what is it, what is it ? :D (we won't tell her, I swear !!)

I have never played it. it seemed okay if I remember correctly, but it has some very brad translations and things, which is apparently what the remake fixes, or at least tries to. The specs seem a bit high for the graphics given the look of the game, but I guess it will allow people to try the game who were put off by the older version. Do you like any of the releases today?

I am glad your day has been going well and seems to be quite relaxing.

Well it is just a little trinket kind of present, just something silly. It is a love heart shaped box full of little scrolls each with something written on it for my partner to redeem when ever she likes. A bit like I.O.U.s. There are also a few blank ones for her to make up her own wishes on them. It is just something silly I do now and then.

My mothers gift is a lovely necklace she has been wanting for some time. The 30th of this month was a very important day for her, and always get her a present, even though most people think that is a little strange. But I think it is more important to her than anyone.
