  1. Emperors die. Treaties get broken. Both sides know another war will come; many on both sides want it. Depends on which side has the most money and can equip its armies and navies fastest. Humans reproduce at an acceptable rate. Elves?
  2. First ten pages of recent uploads: 12 mods per page. 12 total had no image. Of those 12 several were things like 'All Nightingale and Thieve's Guild armor will be considered heavy armor.' Nothing to show, or a patch to fix something in another mod. Yeah, everything's in the toilet now. I guess I'll go move the the desert and await the end times.
  3. First thing first. All elves have names ending in -mer. Example: Dunmer. The 'dwarves' are not "like elves". They are elves. They are the Dwemer. Yeah. I just felt like acting stupid. I know the Dwemer were Elves. But thanks for pointing that out. Did you have a comment on anything else? Yeah, I sure do. When you choose to take it upon yourself to act stupid, expect to be treated as if you're stupid. I'll think of you that way until I see proof of something else, and your tough guy routine doesn't do it.
  4. As mentioned...a kid. And children are non-killable in vanilla Skyrim. Maybe she stayed up to watch the sunrise, the day before.

  6. The circlet of crap. Or maybe Wellspring Circlet. Whatever you like.
  7. If they form a connection upon hatching, the embryo does not form the connection. Upon hatching, there is no embryo.
  8. I've played this game four times through and I am still finding things. Without giving away the spoiler, it's a Quentin Tarantino film scene excerpt re-enacted by two bandits, and it nearly made me spit my drink onto my keyboard.
  9. Except beth is not really that competent. Your personnel axe to grind is your problem, not mine.
  10. W3 "works" and is true to itself. It has a gritty realistic flavor but deftly melds the fantastic with the pitifully mundane and allows them to occupy equally valuable space in its world. A lost shoe in the gutter gets as much notice from me as the textures on a necrophage, and W3 allows an appreciation on so many levels. The high overall quality coupled with the intriguing story would be good enough but the game is beautiful, finding its own style without being cartoonish in any way. One thing I really like is that the game goes right along and will go over your head if you're not a Witcher series nut, and it does so unapologetically. If the player misses the reference, then the player misses it. the games doesn't stoop to hitting the player over the head with a situation until it is obvious. Not only an excellent game with high quality, but a breath of fresh air, surprisingly, in a genre that is well represented by dozens of games.
  11. If you want to have a puritanical and draconian definition of "modify", than yes, it is a modification since you changed that file which is not accessible in-game and therefore was not something the developers gave you an option for as part of the user interface. That said, you're not actually introducing anything that isn't already in the game. You're simply changing how what is already there is presented. Why this would be a concern is confusing to me; this sort of self-imposed restriction has no point in my opinion other than to hobble the person making the strict differentiation. The "why" is a question I would be more interested in; ok yes that is your choice but then again playing with mods was a choice too and I'm not sure I can appreciate the concern over this hair-splitting over the definition. If making the game display that way on your screen makes you happy, just do it. This is life, not a rulebook. :)
  12. A small competent shop can turn things around faster than a large, incompetent one. Available work always fills available time. Not saying That either Beth studio is incompetent, I'm making an analogy to point out that more warm bodies does not guarantee speed.
  13. I feel you need to manually make sure the files are deleted- all of them, even the vanilla files- and start from a fresh vanilla install.
  14. Silent Service by MicroProse Gunship by MicroProse Red Storm Rising by....MicroProse Autoduel by Origin Systems Superstar Ice Hockey by Mindscape ....but even before that, Blue Max for the C64, on a casette tape drive. And even before that, ColecoVision, which was frankly some of the best fun I had before I was uninvited from a wedding due to extra-curricular activities with the bride. In case you're wondering: worth it.
