Baldur’s Gate 2: Two More Party Slots?
After writing my previous commentary on party composition (which I did in the past from a different blog), I mourned the fact that the game did not allow for a slightly bigger party. While there are other issues in having such large parties, the thing about games like Baldur’s Gate is the fun factor in…

Baldur’s Gate 2: Class/Party Composition Re-Roll Thoughts
I just busted out my Baldur’s Gate 2 disc (although my reader isn’t working for some reason) as I have been thinking quite a bit about this subject lately. Nothing excites me more than character creation in an RPG. Baldur’s Gate 2 satisfies this craving by allowing one to create up to 6 different characters…

Diablo 3: Auction House is Back, Message from Director and More Patch 1.0.8 Stuff
Tonight, the Auction House was reinstated following a message from the director of product over at Blizzard that detailed the issues/fallout of the gold duping. Essentially, he summarized the actual bug and how Blizzard proceeded to correct the issue, their decision not to rollback the patch and even some stats on the percentage of people…

World of Warcraft: 1.3 Million Subscribers Down
That’s a pretty large number and is comparable to the population of Burning Crusade, except that it’s getting lower. The two main things people seem to point to are game age and Asia. However, I know that saying the game’s age is a common issue, but I feel that it’s too high level and generic…

Diablo 3: Patch 1.0.8 Disaster, Gold Dupe Exploits and More Bans
Today, Patch 1.0.8 was released and with a great deal of controversy. At first, the bugs seemed quite small with a few annoying issues that came out of a nice sized patch. Of course, you also have some QQ issues as well with the change in XP/drops for certain mobs. However, the real disaster occurred…

Diablo 3: Sharing Gear Between Classes
I like the idea of gearing my guys and having them each operate independently as they can. It’s a nice challenge to work on each character and play them as if they were isolated from the rest of your guys for the most part. However, sometimes it’s just not practical because of the cost or…

Diablo 3: Near 180k DPS Witch Doctor Acid Cloud Destroying Inferno MP2
I made a 10 million gold purchase to replace my old helmet on my witch doctor, which boosted his DPS to near 180k unbuffed (slightly less according to diabloprogress.com), hitting around 220k buffed. The results? Monster Power 2 Inferno is like a knife to melted butter. I probably can take down rares and champion packs…

Diablo 3: Re-Leveling A New Demon Hunter and Witch Doctor Fun
My friend recently joined on Diablo 3 so I decided to give the Demon Hunter another try (meaning re-level a new demon hunter….hey there’s an achievement for that!). This time around with my gold resources and various hand-me-down pieces of gear, it’s a breeze. One unusual thing I decided to try was using a Spectrum…

Prometheus 2: Conversation Between Keith and Vickers
Another scene I completed that I enjoyed which entails a conversation between Keith and Vickers in her private quarters. As Keith goes to the mess hall (unescorted), he encounters Vickers. Vickers: “Come with me to my section.” Keith consents but is stopped by two guards outside of her quarters. “Leave please.” Both guards obediently…

Prometheus 2: Will We Get More Insight into the Aliens Themselves?
One question I’m hoping that will be answered is if we’ll see more insight into the aliens in the upcoming Prometheus 2 sequel. I’ve already provided my say into this manner in my own script (which I won’t talk about here) but for future writers (in case I don’t get the job…which I doubt regardless),…
