i live in a small place in the northern parts of Norway...we still don't have ToB here, I'm suffering every minut without it...
please, comfort me...

*sniff* *sniff*

*whipes off a tear*

Well, the good news is that you should still have a copy of Bard's Tale to pass the time, right???

Poor poor XtraniuM. I would lend you my copy, but it is too awesome to give up. Since when did Norway become a third-world country?

mikeheitz--That's just cold. Telling some poor soul who doesn't have Throne of Bhaal yet to go back and suffer through Bard's Tale . . .


Surely he's got Curse of the Azure Bonds or Secret of the Silver Blades to pass the time.

Hey XtraniuM, ToB should be out this friday in Norway now thats before they get it in UK

you're to kind, no really, you are...

seriously....no kidding...





I WISH YOU ALL DEAD!!

exept Doltan off course...

Hey XtraniuM,

Look at it this way... You are MUCH closer geographically to the Swedish Bikini team than I am in Chicago, so I get the game first, since I am pretty much suffering otherwise.

HL Dave... What about the original Pool of Radiance??? Now THERE was a game!

oh, and Pebz and to all those in the UK HAHAHAHA!!

HAHA

haha

ha....nanananananana (childish laughter thingy)

I suffer the same fate. It's not out in Greece yet, maybe this Thursday they say, although highly unlikely methinks...sob,sob!

Hang on mate!

Relative to their time, Pool of Radiance and the other SSI RPGs were the coolest computer games I have ever played in my life. And to think all you needed was a 286 CPU, 4 MB of RAM and 2 5.25" floppy drives (which was still a step up from a Trash-80 or C-64).

You know, I really miss the days before CD-checks . . . like when they came with code wheels and asked you to "translate" various runes from elf to dwarf to prove you actually bought the thing.

Hey! this thread is to comfort me!!

got to be cool playing those games though, when they where new that is, like in 1243AD or something...but anyway, hang in there Fiddler!!

I don't have it either

MAAAAN, do I miss those code wheels... Things were so much simpler then... Or maybe I am just an old ba$tard!!!

Hey Pebz!!! Don't gloat!! I will be hunting you down on ICQ for tips!! PS I got the Belm! Cheers!

Xtran - laugh at us in the UK? and I was offering a shoulder to cry on too... Well I will have to cry on my own - or Craigs or Gruntboys or Georgis..

<<sniff>>

Well the date of release in UK has moved again - surprise surprise - but who cares really? I am replaying, in Chapter 5 with loads yet to do in Chapter 2! and hopefully our learned friends on this board will have patched it by the time I get it!

Happy gaming all!

YOU WILL BE HUNTING ME?? MWHAHAHAHA!!! nonono, I'll be SPOILING the whole game before you even get to see it!

LMAO Pebz!

You are so confident that your weeks advantage will get you a weeks advantage.

<<Donning boots of speed and upping the frame rate....>>

Ohhhhh dont worry, i wont spoil "everything"

And besides, i like taking my time... so i'll give you some time to catch up

There sure was

What I remember most was finding a +5 sword in Pool of Radiance (my party was around level 4 or so), never to find one again in all the sequels! It got to the point where you couldn't walk down the streets for five minutes without being jumped by a gang of level 25 Thieves, you would fight half a dozen dragons at the same time, and kill more Drow than the Underdark holds. Still, no +5 or +6 weapons. For that matter, not even weapons with a special ability; just vanilla stuff.

Guess Diablo shook something up there

Hey Xyx,

Did you finish the game Pool of darkness in the pool of radiance series? If you did my room mate has a question about the end that he has been trying to find the answer to for years, but no one seems to know.
He told me in the end of pool of darkness, you are given two choices, one was to ail off to the sunset where you live happily ever after, and the other is to head to this Island and battle though huge amount of nasty creatures, beholders, vampires and such. He said after he headed off to the Island and defeated all these mosters he came upon a door that asked him a question. (It has been so long that he does not remember the question), but try as he did, he could not come up with the correct answer to that question. (Did you come upon this?) And if so were you able to answer and remember the answer to that question? Its been bugging him for years.

Damn... I was hoping to ask someone here that very same thing

Can't even remember the question... Just a maze that teleported you around, and every hallway looked alike And every 5 steps or so you'd be jumped by a buttload of dragons, beholders and shambling mounds.
