(1) 'Casual fun' as in 'fun in games', probably. You don't have to be 'hardcore' to fully appreciate a game's pros. (2) Correct. (3) Exactly. Those mechanics don't suit an adventure game like Planescape: Torment. The combat is tedious, the textbox minuscule, and the interface clumsy. (4)...

I've always said Torment makes for good reading but bad playing. It always felt like a point-and-click adventure with stats to me.

This is definitely a must-have for every Fallout fan. Thanks a lot man!

Gothic 2. Enjoying every minute.

Fuck I had completely forgotten everything about that game.

Avernum is buttfuck ugly, and has furry PCs.

The lack of environment interaction in this game is a killer. Goddamit when are they going to release an Ultima'ed FPS? I'm fucking tired of linear shooters where all doors are locked tight, all lights are fucking bulletproof, all NPCs are invincible, and the only way to get from A to B is to...

With those specs, you're going to suffer a lot through The Witcher. Be 150% sure you want to buy and play it; you're gonna need that extra 50% when the game starts crashing. I have similar specs (and a similar gaming portfolio) and have decided to give the following games a try: Gothic I...

It's taking forever. PS: I rule.

That's a plus?

Titan Quest: Immortal Throne, The Witcher, good old StarCraft, Eschalon, Sacred, and trying to get into Gothic's controls.

All this FF7 talk is making me want to try it out. I never bothered with it, perhaps now is the time.

Sounds like what happened to me. Wait till you get to Act II.

Alien: Resurrection, from our guy Perlman. Thought it was from the first Alien movie there for a sec. I'll leave a particular favorite of mine, but I guess it'll be easy to crack: "Someday, a real rain will come and wash the scum off the streets."
