Or you will what, murder them as well? I will make sure the world knows of your heinous deeds. I am American, Americans aren't rich like you Swedes(or are you Swiss? I forgot) are. After taxes, I make 5 dollars an hour. Dragon Age 2 is retailing for 60 dollars, that means that DA2 is more than two days wages!! The two were co-writing a book together. Sheryl has also received Death threats as well. We all know that you were madly in love with Leliana, and wouldn't be happy with her death. You and your anti-sheep friends are murderers, and I will do everything in my power to make sure that the world knows it. I already am, in the sense that I write stuff, albeit I am not paid for it. There are many writers on the internet both good and bad. I once wrote a story called, "Leliana does Lothering", the mods didn't like it much, and told me to post it elsewhere. I then submitted it to Literotica, who also refused to host it, due to it being based off of copyrighted material.

Be sure to make a screencap of this thread, as I am sure it will be deleted soon. David Gaider, head writer of Dragon Age 2, has been kidnapped and murdered by the anti-sheep Commander and his pet black wolf. How do I know this? His ghost is standing right next to me as we speak. I am a shaman, and can see spirits and stuff. While driving along the twisty roads of Switzerland, Gaider had spun out, and hit a snow bank. He fractured his ankle, and was unable to walk. However, he was soon discovered by the infamous Commander. Gaider, along with the transcript of his latest Novel,"Leliana dies horribly and tragically", had been carried back to the Commanders snowy cabin. Gaider was very thankful, and thought that he was saved. However, when the Commander read the unfinished transcript of his novel, in which Leliana retires from the life of adventuring to become a Shepherd, he was none too pleased, and demanded that it be re-written. Gaider, ever so proud of his work, refused, even when waterboarded, electrocuted, and forced to play Superman 64 for 20 hours straight. Gaider's ghost has also informed me that the Commander had his anti-sheep intelligence analysts hack into David's Bioware forum account, and impersonate him. Also, he had carved off his face, and has been pretending to be the deceased writer in public. Gaider worries about his surviving development team, who may also be in danger. If you are reading this, I would advise all forum members not to say anything positive about sheep, or negative about Leliana. Gaider is survived by his pet grey sheep, Leliana, and a hamster that smells like elderberries. The last words he wrote were,"I wish I worked for Squaresoft, because Japanese console games are so much more awesome than Western computer RPGS", these words were scribbled in his own blood on the wall of a dirty basement. In his afterlife, Gaider had but one final request, he asked that all members, mods, and admins of the The Nexus forums donate to Sinophile's paypal account, so that he can spend more time playing Dragon Age, and less time working at Burger King, where they are really mean to him and stuff.

spoiler Help on romancing Morrigan and Leliana
Sinophile replied to exclusteve's topic in Dragon Age: Origins's Discussion
Actually, I think you have to talk to Morrigan first and tell her you are ditching Leliana. If you talk to Leliana first and tell her that you are ditching Morrigan, your relationship will automatically go down about 20 points and she will know the next time you talk to her. Strangely, it doesn't work the other way around. -
Hai Guyz, I have been a fan of Firefox since 2003. I enjoy the many add-ons and extensions it offers. However, it does not seem to agree with Windows 7. Whenever I close Firefox, and try to open it again, I get a message saying that ,"Firefox is already running but not responding", and often have to open up the task manager and exit it from the Processes menu. I have since downloaded Chrome, which I like because it offers more screenspace, and less of a memory footprint(about one third of Firefox's). However, I miss my Firefox extensions, such a Fireftp, Foxytunes, flashblock,ad-block, Stumble,Tor and Screengrab just to name a few. Also, is Google trustworthy? I don't want Google spying on me. http://s-ak.buzzfed.com/static/imagebuzz/web02/2009/3/12/21/if-browsers-were-girls-7420-1236909037-1.jpg

you evidently cared enough to post in this thread. Neither are the police, but Brokenergy knows... Again, look at the name of the topic. Why bother posting in a thread about a sequel to a game you don't like? That, or someone posting with his account, most likely you Broke. You tell me, I watched you do it. It is amazing what mistakes one can make in but in instant of rage...

IMHO, comparing ME to ME2 is almost like comparing Call of Duty to Neverwinter Nights, or Diablo to Morrowind. In short, ME2 is more shooter, ME is more traditonal CRPG. Some people naturally prefer one genre over the other, and thus will prefer either an RPG with shooter elements, or a Shooter with RPG elements. My biggest gripe is the paragon/renegade meter. I hated how I had to build up one or the other in order to complete some quests(such as Tali's or Morinth's), and that you were hindered if you played a Chaotic character. In most Bioware games, I don't like playing a 100% good or 100% evil character. My Second biggest gripe is how the game plays at higher difficulties. For example, on lower difficulties, the vorcha die with one shot to the head. On higher difficulties, they come with armor, and take twice as long to kill, thus making the game longer and therefore boring. Given that both games require hand-eye coordination, they should make equipment to cover your weakpoints or playstyle. They should make an armor that gives bonus to hitpoints for slow characters, An Armor with bonus accuracy for those with bad aim, and perhaps a third armor with speed bonuses. Also, I would like to see moddable weapons. For example, a mod that increases rate of fire, or decreases it in exchange for more damage. Perhaps a heat-vision or X-ray scope. First of all, was the Acronym really necessary? I had a bit of trouble figuring that one out even with the carbonite reference. Secondly, the analogy is slightly flawed. The Second Star Wars movie had the same "spirit"(for lack of a better term), and had the same balance of action, space battles, storyline, drama, and character growth. George Lucas didn't decide to forgo the story in order to add more special effects, or drastically change princess Leia from a fully-clothed but spunky princess, to a submissive sex kitten. On the other hand, Empire Strikes Back was the least popular out of the original three Star Wars movies, and had the lowest ticket sales. Likewise, Mass Efffect was one way, Mass Effect 2 was another, Mass Effect 3 will hopefully take he best attributes of both to make a killer shooter-RPG.

Is it true: Wichter 2 Collector's Edition=$120
Sinophile replied to SpellAndShield's topic in PC Gaming
I have known a lot of people who have spend hundreds, if not thousands of dollars on movie and video game related merchandise, such as a replica of "Sting" from Lord Of The Rings, or an Action figure from a video game. I knew one girl who spent $500+ on Totoro-related merchandise. I myself owned over a hundred dollars in Pikachu merchandise in my teens(I was notorious for my love of Pikachu, hence all my presents were pikachu-related). Thus a $120-$200 price tag on what is essentially merchandise bundled with a game is not at all surprising. Heck, You could make a collector's edition costing $500, and at least a few hardcore fans will buy it. -
I won't bother posting links as I am sure most everyone on the site is already aware. Many family members of David Gaider are asking Bioware to cancel DA2 out of "respect" for his grisly and untimely death. However, Bioware not only invested 100 million dollars into the development of DA2, they also announced that they may be releasing a "Memorial Edition" of DA2 several months after. I have some rather strong opinions on the issue, but will try my best not to slant the topic as it is.

Lol this reminds me of my first semester of college. The college had a sort of E-mail system that let students ad teachers communicate with each other easily. Some guy saved his password on a public computer, and someone else sent immature messages in all of his classes saying how much he hates the class, and how he finds certain female students attractive. Even though the messages were so blatantly sexual it was obvious that it wasn't him, he still got in trouble with the IT staff of the school.

Greetings mods and Admins, I had a question regarding the policy on expletives, or at least the rationale behind it. I have noticed that most of the staff do not appreciate the use of asterisks of getting around the wordfilter, or foul language in general. I believe that the rules also extend to sexually explicit as well. Considering that the majority of the games that this forum is devoted to are M-rated games, how necessary is this policy/rule?

Sinophile replied to Sinophile's topic in Dragon Age: Origins's Discussion
I played the Human Noble as a female. It was about revenge and betrayal, much like the city elf. Still, I suppose sexual jealousy is provoking to me. Someone murders my entire family and takes my estate, meh. Someone kidnaps my wife, I want to kill the jerk!!! -

spoiler return to ostigar
Sinophile replied to KaylaRenee's topic in Dragon Age: Origins's Discussion
I just finished Return to Ostragar. I found Duncan's sword and dagger, but not his body. I am assuming from the context of the OP that he is perhaps looking for Duncan's body, as logic might dictate that if Cailan's body is still perfectly preserved(doesn't look decayed or anything), that Duncan should be around as well. I am conjecturing that because Cailan was the king, that the Darkspawn may have kept him around as a trophy, whereas they may not have realized what Duncan's status was. -
Are people optimistic about the West/US/Europe?
Sinophile replied to SpellAndShield's topic in Debates
I thought that there was a budget surplus during the Clinton years, although when I tried to google a reference, It appears not. Let's say that you get a new job and get a mortage in order to buy a house. Even though you have a job, most people aren't willing to save up years in order to afford to purchase a home outright, thus most homeowners get a mortage. Let's say that you lose your job, and are unable to pay off your mortage. The mortage company would have to pay expensive forceclosure fees, and most likely sell your home at a steep loss. Also keep in mind , that in addition to being America's loanshark, China has also been a large supplier of manufactured goods. Since the U.S. demand for manufactured goods has sharply decreased since the housing crash, that has also negatively affected China. -

Sinophile replied to Sinophile's topic in Dragon Age: Origins's Discussion
I liked it, although not as much as the city elf. You got to make choices, and you ended up fighting in an arena. Still not as much as murdering a bunch of bride-stealing rapists though. I don't remember the Dalish elf one too well, except that I didn't like it. All I remember is that I found some mirror or something,and the village elders were like,"Ok, GTFO of the village and kill some Darkspawn".
