As I've said a million times, you are wrong.

What the fuck was wrong with the gameplay?

If any of your arguments contains the word 'balance', don't even answer that question.

And you are still black. I CAST HARM!

the combat system in arcanum was actually well-balanced, i thought? the problem was that there was too much of it, all the fighting was ultrarepetitive, and killing shit wasn't that gratifying (plus everything died in the same way & there were no critical hits or anything like that to liven things up). fighting was a chore.

Yeah I nguess you could find a lot of bad things in Arcanum but I think it's genrally a good game. Moust of today's rpg games are not worth playng.

AND I always prefer turn based over real time...

There were critical hits...

I wouldn't know about the combat in Arcanum as my 2 summoned ogres did all the fighting. I occasionally cast a spell but those critters moved way too fast!

how about Silverfall?

my sources tell me, its not a bad RPG at all.

Superhaze · Post by **Superhaze** » Fri Mar 09, 2007 6:48 pm

I keep trying to decide if Silverfall looks good, or just looks like a crap RPG version of Warcraft 3.

When i have decided, i shall partake in the rpg goodness..

notice the monstars with the gasmaskÃ‚Â´s :how fallout 3:

iÃ‚Â´ll probably pick it up as a low-budget title

I was waiting for that, thanks!

The link wont work. No matter, i can use my imagination.

And i did not mean "looks good" in OMG2kt3hGRAPHIX aws0me!!. I mean,
do i like the "theme" or style of the artist who made the game. So maby i do care about the art
but why the fuck shouldnt I? Oblivion on the other
hand looks like a fucking cartoon, ergo, not all to
awesome.

To me, Fallout looks good. the graphics are nice and
crappy, but it fits the overall game. Silverfall looks
a bit.. whats the word... shitty?
