I heartily concur. Nobody, and I mean nobody, takes my heart the way Maxical can.

Her vivacious and infectious manner will stay with me forever.

Thanks for bringing back an image of her again, mALX.

I have a question-

Has anybody here played the Witcher series. I just bought number 3 on Xbox and hooked up online to see how many updates and free content they added. It said 18GB.

Insane!

I've played the first two. The original didn't run particularly well on my old laptop, so I never got around to completing it. Had a lot of fun with the second on my 360. Loved the way they handled the story branching and I'm a big fan of Vernon Roche. Unfortunately since I've only got a 360 I can't play the third

The Witcher 3 is an amazing game. They all pretty much are. Very dark, very adult, story/lore heavy and almost every decision is morally gray. One thing to know, the happy endings of many games are pleasantly absent from the Witcher. Sometimes your actions will have effects you didn't intend amd sometimes those effects will hurt people you care about or leave you feeling like you should've made a different choice. For the most part though there are no mustache twirling villians (with the exception of the Wild Hunt) and everyone is looking out for their best interest while trying to propel their king or faction to the top of the heap. The last game shakes all this up and shows that the series is never really predictable and is well written.

In the second game there are 4-5 major differences in the endings. The third game is a bit more straightforward but with equally important decisions and multiple endings.

I'm a big fan because up until the Witcher the true RPG was a drowning genre. Not many great ones for a disappointing period of time.

The devs are good too, not charging for small dlc pieces and only for the full fledged expansion packs. They are also pretty good about patching problems quickly.

I think you'll love it if you give it a chance.

Talked to the firsts, said hi to the seconds, did nothing with the lasts.



And now I´m sitting here

Well, I'm feeling a little better than I did yesterday. The temperature's back down below 25C, which is nice, but it seems my bad luck hasn't run out just yet.

I need a new Oblivion character

Are you sure they feel the same way?

I think by this point I'm responsible for all the restless dead in Cyrodiil. Anytime you run into a ghost/zombie/wraith it's the vengeful spirit of one of my characters, futilely seeking revenge for their death.

I do not dispute that, truth be told

Next time I fire up the game I'll probably be confronted with Mannimarco right at the start, who'll challenge me to a duel for control of the undead in Cyrodiil

I think you outta do what I did when I was new to Oblivion; spend a heck of a lot of time in Imperial City and hone your character´s skills, particularly his defenses.


Oh, and health potions

Kazimir went through a dozen health potions in that fight. That's how useless the Battlemages were.

I think it's more a case of not going into a mage-fight at level one with a character born under the Apprentice.

I think this is advice we can all adhere to in our daily lives

Maybe I'll try something a little more conventional for my next character, rather than an exclusively magic-using character who's weak to magic.

Possibly an Argonian Nightblade. It's been a while since I played an Argonian, and even longer since I played a stealthy blade/magic wielding character...

I think it´s an interesting concept, maybe you just need to take it a bit slower. I could be wrong of course but I get the feeling you´re kinda rushing your characters instead of really taking the time developing them

I think the problem was starting in Anvil. Starting in the Imperial City, Anvil would have been one of the less immediate quests, and would have taken some time to get to. Kazimir would probably have been level four or five by the time he got there, and things would have played out differently. But starting in Anvil it's natural to take that Guild Quest first, because it's a pretty long trip out there to do one quest that's required to get access to the Arcane University.

That and I really wasn't expecting Caminalda to throw lightning bolts around. I've never seen her do that before.

Sorry about the loss of Kaz, CT. Maybe start him again in Bruma or Bravil (where the first recommendation is much safer) and, like mirocu suggests, play him close to town and protectively till he levels up. Sounds like Kaz's build is strong - just a late bloomer build.

Unfortunately I've already carried out my traditional post-death nuking of the save files.

Just realized that haven´t been said for awhile now
