Gazaroth

You silently observe the situation... You see the kobold on the tiger jump out from the bushes and tackle the goblin who was busy fishing out the net. The other goblin tries to retreat but is stopped when the wooden warrior descends from the trees and lands flawlessly in front of them ...

Garazoth

You listen intently and find that he hasn't seen you, or he's really good at bluffing. You continue to stalk them into the forest as them move about... They almost fall into a sort of trap as the blanket makes way. The Kobold then tells the wooden warrior that he plans on hiding and ...

Just as a quick heads up, while you added the proper amount to your roll for move silently, you actually get the +3 bonus from your dexterity. Each skill is effected by a different stat indicated in brackets. Not really a big deal but if you ever gain or lose dexterity for example it ...

Garazoth

Haha, no problem. Hope that went well.

You make your way deep into the forest, the fog getting thicker with each step. But then you arrive at a clearing in the forest. It is here that you see quite possibly the most bizarre site you have laid eyes on since you've left your homeworld ...

Garazoth

Due to your elven +2 bonus to search, which I forgot you actually have

Search:25! (A fantastic result)

You arrive at the edge of the forest. There is a faint mist in the valley leading up to the forest and outside of the forest there are an arrangement of stones and burn marks which ...

Would you like to proceed immediately to Blackoak forest, or would you like to explore the town of Shadowvale?

Shadowvale by the way is a small hamlet with population of roughly 350. 225 of these people are farmers, craftsman and professionals, 25 or so of the people are middle class ...

Garazoth reluctantly accepts

Mass Effect has always been more of a shooter with a sprinkling of RPG elements here and there. When you get down to it, the story is pretty much very linear and scripted. So, I suppose if you aren't enjoying it already, i.e. the story and gameplay, Mass Effect isn't for you.

I do agree that ME 1 ...

Sense Motive: 16+1 =17

You sense a couple of things amiss, but thankfully none of them have to do with your fugitive status. You think about it and wonder why the mayor wouldn't deal with this problem himself, he's clearly got orc warriors here that could handle the goblin threat.

these little bastards!!!! they arent actually terrifiying as they are infuriating, they gang up on your character and drain your health in a split seconds, the only enemy that has ever had me pulling my hair out with rage.

as for ...

New Character Garazoth

You've been around for a long time, it doesn't look it because your an elf but you still remember when Har'zack's minions destroyed your homeland the elven forests of Gaelwyn, 45 years ago. You then spent a good chunk of your life wandering about the plains of Western ...

Charisma:7 (haha kinda like real life)

ive always wanted to learn how to play D&D, but no one in my town plays it. this seems like a good opportunity to learn, i know the basic idea of it, but the details are still very fuzzy to me. Id like to join in on this, i guess ill be an Elf Ranger with an alignment of Chaotic Neutral (im sort of ...

I remember talking to my friend about RPGs and he made a joke about all games (no matter the genre) being role-playing games because of the fact that you play a role of someone (or something). Kind of laughed at this idea. :laugh:

But to be honest, after coming to this site, I'm not even sure what ...

You, my friend, should play more RPGs. The best RPGs didn't have character classes.
wtf? which of the best RPGs dont have character classes?
Diablo II
Baldurs Gate/icewind Dale
Eye of the Beholder
Elder Scrolls series
Dragon Age
Dungeon master
Rogue
Ultima series

all have Character classes, do ...

Morrowind in my mind is the best role playing game ever made. the world of Vvanderfell is unlike that of any RPG world and the possibilities in the game are absolutely endless, play it now!

that said i didnt hate Oblivion (unlike many MW fans), it just wasnt as inspiring as morrowind. However it ...

ive heard good things about those games, the thing that has kept me away is the price tag,i just dont know how i can justify paying 15-30 dollars for a late 80s/early 90s style RPG with outdated graphics. Its not that i really care about graphics, its just that there are so many games like that ...

Ultima 6 is fun, you can even kill civillians Elder Scrolls style.

id look into Nethack, its about as ugly as it gets graphics wise, but its still not a text based. There are so many things you can do in the game, from wiping your face, to kicking things, its all done with a keyboardso theres no ...
