| Topic | So is Miranda the strongest Non-Krogan character in Mass Effect? (spoilers) |
| pres_madagascar 06/07/19 10:23:17 AM #12 | Cora in andromeda is actually more formidable than Jack because of her combat skills and being a vanguard basically, but Jack has more raw biotic strength. Also, I'd put drack above wrex and grunt, because of him being 1000 years old with combat experience the entire time, and him being significantly cybernetic. Also, Shepard as of ME2 is arguably the most powerful human in existence due to all his/her cybernetic enhancements. --- |

While during the day you have people being loud and generally stupid. Tbqh I miss out on a lot of social engagements because I effectively need notice ahead of time to make sure I'm up by when it's time, because otherwise I'll be sleeping during the day and my phone doesn't wake me up. I make it work, but it sucks sometimes. But it's quite nice never having to deal with traffic, and having a lot of quiet time to myself at work. I smoke, and I love to just go outside for a smoke break and look up at the stars and shit. --- |

Body is always waking up every few hours and if I have to get up to pee then it's game over lol. Body feels tired. Loss of energy. Skin looks pale. Eyes startto droop. It's a terrible shift, yet more relaxing. Just wish the job didn't go past 4am. It'd be nice to go to bed when the sun is still down. I hear you. I go to bed between 8am and noon usually. Blackout curtains are a must. --- |

| pres_madagascar 06/06/19 8:24:26 PM #51 | Prestoff posted... Most (even other asians and Chinese) would usually point to the mainlanders as being the worst tourists. As China prospers, it just means more of the Chinese population has more money to go on vacations around the world, so most of them don't know anything about other foreign customs like not shitting in the middle of the street. I remember there was a French museum that had to post a sign exclusively in Mandarin to not take a crap in there, but use a restroom instead. The louvre lol. --- |

Kaliesto posted...As of right now I'm trying to convince a friend of mine not to go to EPIC, the rumors if it's true may not be worth putting a game on there. The fact that larian was able to make masterfully done console ports of the original sin games, particularly 2, also works in their favor imo. Original sin 2 console ports came out a year after pc and still garnered attention and sales. If they do this right, this could end up being their most successful game financially. I'd actually go as far as to say the original sin 2 console port is arguably one of the best ports of a pc game of that type ever made. They managed to make that game, in all its complicated glory, work flawlessly on a controller. --- |

Brand is important so I don't have a problem with keeping the Baldur's Gate name while it doesn't have to do with the Bhaalspawn. Tbqh I 100% bet it was because of original sin 2 that they were able to get to make this game. Os2 took the rpg world by storm, garnering modest success on not only pc but both consoles as well, and they garnered a reputation for quality and reminded a lot of people of early Bioware. I'm happy for them, honestly. --- |

I just love the lore in that world. Mask of the betrayer in nwn2 and throne of bhal in BG2 are some of my favs I really hope blackguard will be an advanced class in BG3.
