What Other PC Games Does Everyone Play?

Wanna know which game's demo I downloaded? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />
 
Two Worlds? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
 
Damn! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> Guessed it. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" /> Yep, two words: Two Worlds. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />

That thing acutally is way better than Gothic series to me. Also that game reminds me
Ultima IX Ascension. That game is like Gothic, Ultima IX Ascension and Oblivion merged into one. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" /> Though animations are choppy and ya can't walk but run allways (does the full game have that walk button? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" /> ) and horse walk/run animations don't match with the speed.. and one house in some kind of village doesn't have a entrance.. but as it turns out most of the houses are just built for ghosts, well Gothic II had that problem too, only difference in Gothic II was that most of the buildings second or third floors weren't filled with rooms and gate towers had the same problem: no ladder or stairs upwards.. just a boring ground level. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> At least Two Worlds has doors on the buildings that can be opened like in Ultima IX Ascension.. no crap about doorways missing doors or loading a cell area. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> And armors... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/8q.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":8q" border="0" alt="8q.gif" />




...there are awesome good-looking armors! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> Better than Oblivion armors if you ask me.. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" /> or is it just my broad shouldered wide chested and tall Ronon Dex like guy that I have in the demo? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" /> Probably both. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" /> I wish that game had a muscularity bar too when creating a character. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" />
 
I think there's a walk button somewhere in the full game, but I forget which key it is. In some cases, there's two and three things mapped to the same key. Also, there's more than just horses to ride - there's also giant lizards. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" /> You'll eventually run across a few houses without doors on them, but I forget where on the map that is.

Yep, the TW armours look ten times better than those in Oblivion. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" /> And the guy in the demo can't much be changed in the full game - basically just eye colour, hair colour, and (I think - been ages since I started my game) hair style.

I haven't played Oblivion since I installed Two Worlds. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
I'm allready uh.. "acquiring" Two Worlds. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> And wanna know the most splendid thing about the game? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/w00t.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":woot" border="0" alt="w00t.gif" /> I can run it on max with all the AA turned up. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> Not even a single trace of lag expect the choppy animations that is a game issue. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

So there is a walk button? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/w00t.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":woot" border="0" alt="w00t.gif" /> That's good. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" /> When I get the full thing I'm gonna investigate that tall black tower that I saw in the horizon.. man that thing is huge and tall. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
I demand screenshots! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> Max AA gives me a BSOD! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

...you might want to get yerself some good armour and lots o' potions before you go anywhere near that place. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" /> They don't like visitors. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/no.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":no" border="0" alt="no.gif" /> <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/no.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":no" border="0" alt="no.gif" />
 
Here! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />

<img src="http://i218.photobucket.com/albums/cc220/Cylon13/TwoWorldDemoScrshot1.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />

<img src="http://i218.photobucket.com/albums/cc220/Cylon13/TwoWorldDemoScrshot2.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />
Ultima games have that same egyptian symbol.

<img src="http://i218.photobucket.com/albums/cc220/Cylon13/TwoWorldDemoScrshot3.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />
<i>Look Ma! No BSOD!</i> <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />

<img src="http://i218.photobucket.com/albums/cc220/Cylon13/TwoWorldDemoScrshot4.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />
That's just for the angle. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />

<img src="http://i218.photobucket.com/albums/cc220/Cylon13/TwoWorldDemoScrshot5_TowerCastleThi.jpg" border="0" class="linked-image" />
And that's the tower (in the distance) I'm talking about. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />

I'm suspecting it allready that this tall thing has evils in it. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> It looks all black. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":?" border="0" alt="unsure.gif" /> What ever there is in that tower.. that tower is gonna be mine one way or another. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
*drools* Damn you. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> Also, once you get your character at or above Level 40, there's apparently an un-mapped island off the coast that's loaded with treasure which is worth checking out. And Stone Golems. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/urgh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":urgh" border="0" alt="urgh.gif" />
 
Thank you. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

An island? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/w00t.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":woot" border="0" alt="w00t.gif" /> Wow this game is full of surprises. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> I figured out that blunt weapons make more damage on skeletons than swords do.. had to hit them 20+ times with a sword to kill them until I found out that I could have done it easy and simple with me blunt weapons. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> What a great game.. I wasn't even pissed off, I thought skeletons just had tad too much health. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/24.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rofl" border="0" alt="24.gif" />

And I found out that too that ya can somehow merge similar armors into one and make a stronger out of it, same with weapons. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> Also that alchemy in the game is so awesome.. you can make various shit out of every ingredient and crystal.. for example there's like 10+ ways to make a "Add 10% Fire Damage" gem. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> Yes you need to use brains in that game's alchemy system.. otherwise you end up doing bombs and some pretty peculiar potions. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/24.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rofl" border="0" alt="24.gif" /> Of course Stallion knows it all allready. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
oh, jeez, don't get me started on alchemy... eschalon has the same thing. i wanted to make a flask of demon oil once, which is orange. i thought i was supposed to mix willow sap and bromine.

okay, flask... bomine... willow sap... mix... and there we have our... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/w00t.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":woot" border="0" alt="w00t.gif" />

...green stuff? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blink:" border="0" alt="blink.gif" /> um, what did i just do? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
Actually from what I have read from you I think that eschalon's alchemy system is a bit more superior to Two World's system. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> Come on, ending up making a potion that blows in yer face? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/24.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rofl" border="0" alt="24.gif" />
 
well, that CAN happen if you do it wrong. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" /> i used myself as an iraqi terrorist once that way. KABOOM, and gone is the enemy! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
What then? Found yerself being a skeleton when ya woke up? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
f**king russians! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/boom.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":boom" border="0" alt="boom.gif" /> Forgetting to mention that the version I downloaded was in russia. There wasn't written ANYWHERE that the game that I downloaded was in russia.. it just was "[isoHunt] Two.Worlds.Game.of.the.Year.Edition-ArenaBG.torrent" f**k! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/boom.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":boom" border="0" alt="boom.gif" /> This isn't the first time that has happend. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":modding" border="0" alt="modding.gif" />

I dislike russian language big time! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/boom.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":boom" border="0" alt="boom.gif" /> Now this russian version goes to garbage bin and if this shit happens again.. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/whippa.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":whipa" border="0" alt="whippa.gif" /> Well let's hope it doesn't. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

It helps if you add something like Fire, Spirit, or Frost damage to a weapon too - note, though, you can only add one of these to a weapon. You can increase the damage amount by adding more of the same damage stones, just like combining weapons and armour.

For alchemy, if you mix things with permanent effects only, any potions yer pot spits out will also be permanent. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" /> Just don't eat poisoned rat meat - my character let out a crowd-pleasing fart, then died. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> I think that may have been a bug, since it hasn't happened since. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />
 
<img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

Methinks I'm gonna go try my luck at a store again. I hope the store I'll be visiting will have that Two Worlds. That game lacks at good torrents and I don't want Dopeman's cracked no-need-to-install and non-patchable crap or that russian version that I cannot understand. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />

Besides it would be nice to own a modern RPG's cd/dvd case for a change. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
 
Good idea. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" /> I bought my Epic Edition copy the day it was released. It was a bugger to find, though. Probably because it wasn't published by Electronic Farts. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
 
I've seen Two Worlds being sold in the stores in my area. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> Actually I've seen it being sold many times in my area.. I haven't really payed attention to newer games. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" /> Oh just recalled that the last time I visited the store I'm planning to visit again in monday may definitely have Two Worlds. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> That store usually has many kinds of new games.. last time I visited it, it barely had the older ones. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> That was then when I was lucky enough to find a copy of Sacred. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

Oh looks like I'll be getting my copy around 15-12$ if I am correct. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
Check on e-Bay, Deep. I got my copy brand new, still in the wrapping for like 3 bucks including shipping.

You can get some incredible deals on PC games there.
