Oh hey look, your ignorance is showing. You obviously weren't around when Van Buren was being shat all over, not to mention FOBOS and even Tactics to an extent. Oh, and I guess you must not have noticed all the absolute reverence with which Interplay is treated round these parts? Further...

What's delusional about it? If you check the thread at the Wasteland 2 forums, you'll see that "I don't want to do maths" is in fact one of the arguments presented against the AP system.

Uh, sure, you could probably dump all your attribute points into Perception (up to whatever the maximum is) which would give you a higher starting Examine skill, among others. But obviously, that would give you fewer points for your other attributes and you would still have to put skill points...

The only big "bug" I'm seeing is the game running slowly on Intel's integrated GPUs. Really, that's more of an issue with Intel's crap graphics drivers and their lack of OpenGL support. Granted, the team should have figured out the issue sooner and found some way around considering the large...

So this was finally released on the PC. iOS and Mac versions should be out in a week or two, and the Android version is currently TBD (though I'd guess December or January). Pricing is right where I expected at $20. Anyone going to pick this up? Seems to be worth it if you're a fan and/or...

Um, dual analog sticks? Yes, those are crucial to FPS playability on consoles -- though they are still inferior to mouse and keyboard. Those have existed since the Gamecube controller though. Analog triggers? Wha?

And counting. I doubt it'll hit 6 million, but possibly over 5.5. Still over 12 hours left.

So we're in the final 3 days, and 4 million is within sight. We definitely want the 4 million total stretch goal and the 1.5 million Kickstarter stretch goal, so pledge if you haven't and spread the word! Also, check out the preview of the Constellation, one of the pledge ships. It's pretty...

That article's author focuses on the most inane example (eating a free sandwich at a press event) to try and make a point, then proceeds to frame the issue as it being the vast majority of incorruptible, Batman-like journalists like himself against a minority of greedy slobs. He pretty plainly...

I did. I mean, I've never understood what all the complaining was about. Just becuase of the alien and the spaceship? Really? After the magical, vaporizing-people ark from Ark, the magical stone things from the Temple of Doom, and the magical healing chalice from Last Crusade? Indy himself may...

My bad. Wasn't paying attention. >.>

Ahahah. That's *exactly* what I thought when I read that. Hopefully soon we'll see Robocop cleaning up the streets of Detroit.

I believe her response was that she's a TV host and entertainer, not a writer. Which, really, is at least somewhat of a fair point. She's just a pretty girl for the audience to stare at while she goes "woo!" and chats up industry people. As long as she (and her audience) understands that she's...

I fifth the opinion that this qualifies to be run on the main news page. Besides, outside of occasional Wasteland 2 updates, there's not a lot of Fallout / Post-Apo news to go around at the moment.

If you haven't been able to donate due to the frequent crashing of the main site (or for whatever other reason), they just put up a Kickstarter page to collect additional pledges. Also, if you were dreading paying $5 international shipping for the "Citizen Card" reward included in every tier...

Have to agree with the general sentiment: this is a pretty weak moral dilemma. The situation and solutions are just fine, but there's a pretty obvious right and wrong. Just giving the "right" way a negative consequence for the player doesn't make it a moral dilemma (especially if the player...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe there are going to be elves and dwarves, at least, and probably other fantasy staples. They said they weren't going to be using them in the usual way, or somesuch.

Huh, really didn't think the $3.5m stretch goal was gonna happen. Looks within reach now though.

Is it just me or did the main website go down again? (Backup site is still live.) Right when I'd made up my mind to kick in $30 and was going through the Paypal screens... *edit* Nevermind, main site is back up.

Don't get all bent out of shape about that. They aren't designing any real content. The "designing" of an NPC just means the name, class, and race. The item is just giving the look and lore of the item, and they specify that is has to be "within reason", meaning they can veto or modify the look...
