The reason I wanted to use blasters in Kotor was a faq on gamefaqs where a guy made a scoundrel like Han Solo and took on malek in endgame with little problems whatsoever. He invested in dexterity and force speed during fight making him get extra attacks. From there whenever he faced jedi, he would ...

Im going to play this game and have gotten to chapter 3 in the past. I now decide I want to complete it with a melee only character. I don't like ranged weapons in 3rd person/1st person games. Is it at all possible to defeat the sheriff in melee without him using cheap tactics on you with the bat ...

Geneforge is a great series, along with Avernum. The problem is that these games are absolutely huge and covering them would be a massive undertaking - remember that one game walkthrough can easily take 500-1000 hours of work, and there are five games in the Geneforge series, six in Avernum.

If ...

I want to talk about Geneforge series 1-5 which is one of the most epic rpg series Ive seen. I just finished Geneforge 1 this time with a solo guardian and it was one of the most original rpgs Ive played through. Its very much like Baldurs Gate except its full turnbased. Other than that, its got the ...

SpiderWeb Software

You still got a long way to go before you miss out on some of the best story driven games ever made.

Enter Spiderweb Software. An indie game company that has been making fallout type story driven games since 1994. Avernum-Party/turn based icewind dale combat.

The real keeper ...

Well scrath that for fallout 1. There arent almost any grenades to be found. Im going to try fallout 2.

I was thinking of making a throwing build where i major in grenades for large groups, and throwing knives for single opponents. Ive heard that grenades can do alot of damage to opponents on a critical hit. Add that with better criticals and watch out.

My question is besides other skills, which ...

Im making a ranger17/rogue3 like the guide stated on gamefaqs. Im currently at Ranger2/Rogue1 and i am just starting the prison part of act1. I need some advice as i am dying a bit and need to know when this build will get better. I dont like using henchman and want to keep it solo. Does anyone have ...

Hi, i am playing with a party of me a bard/rogue, a half orc barbarian, and a cleric. I am thinking of getting one more character- an npc that i might be able to romance. I am male. Im not very far into the game and my character-bard/rogue is not very good. I figured that mixing those 2 classes ...

I tried playing this game a while back but the game runs slow on all computers. The game really looks fun but i dont have a chance when the speed is this bad. I wasnt going to play it again, but i read that you can lower everything in the graphics options to make it run semi normal. I tried this but ...

How is the progress with the project?

I figured i'd ask just to make sure you have some support. The one and only thing to realize with this game is will it be 3rd edition rules (icewind dale2), or 2nd edition like the originals. 3rd edition will be harder to make but better overall (imho), if its ...

Im making a 4 man party that will be very unique to say the least. The party will be somewhat nefarious and sneaky, thus the characters reflect that. I want a cleric of mask who will be mostly a summoner and healer. Summoning i have already used before to great lengths (summon undead!). Then ...

Oops, found out the error which was nothing. Turns out i read on here that in the 2nd level of the goblin warrens in the first part the game goes slow. I dont remember how to fix it but that is manageable.

Hi, I havent played this game in like a year. I installed the game yet again and this time it is going a little slow and the performance is choppy. I've been going at trying to beat this game since i played it the first time some 6 years ago. I would play the game, get really into it, and then for ...

Thanks for the sound advice.
I do use sneak attacks a lot and my rogue is going for the weapon focus from fighter lvl 4. I havent gotten there yet, but i will. Im trying to make a rogue that can sneak attack and still fight a little in case one of my other fighters gets cut off by stun, web, etc ...

So then, the question is are there any "good" rogue class skills?

Arterial Strike, Hamstring, crippling strike, envenom weapon? Or do rogues just kinda get screwed when it comes to that....again..

Hi, I am just wondering if crippling strike is a useful ability for a rogue. I read somewhere that for each backstab (sneak attack) level you get -1 strength to your enemy. Is that true? Or is it just a 1 strength deduction. If that is the case, then that sucks.

And is it always on, or do you have ...

Rpgguy, I think that you got a much better shot at making the game than any of the other people.

Atari (destroyer of games) would only cripple the bg series. They haven't made one good game to this day. The only reason demonstone was alright was because R.A. Salvatore wrote the story.

If you need ...

A New Problem

For some bizarre reason, my game has been changed so that the screen (when i play the game) appears in the bottom left corner. With the rest of the screen all black. I can play the game, but this is frustating. Does anyone know a way to fix this glitch?

I downloaded the game from ...

I just beat her. Though bishop wasn't fun. I figured since he was the leader of the ferals; i would have to fight him upclose. Of course i was wrong. What kind of a vampire uses a gun?

I took him down though. The reason i was dying was because i didn't buy the heavy clothing for the added ...
