    A little advice about one of our players...

    3.5e, and it can fly? There are spells that remove a character's flight movement, be they dragon or otherwise. And I'm pretty sure it's actually got NO save, or a Fort save. But really, this isn't about what the characters capabilities are. It's the fact that your DM needs to step up...

    Making A Good Roleplaying Game - What's In It?

    (No, the search field wasn't used to see if this has been discussed. If it has, it's not in the first ten pages of topics. That said, let's hash it up some.) So, people are mad that Skyrim isn't an RPG. People are upset that it's 'just a rehash' (What you say?), or that it was an action game...

    Which game/sequel are you most disappointed never happened?

    Jade Empire 2. Probably already mentioned, though. But holy hell, they NEED a sequel to this game.

    One word I never want to hear from anyone in the gaming community again.

    Noob/newb/nub (Not only because most of the folks that use the word are half my age, and their parents bought them the game they're currently spewing that drek into) is an especially annoying term. We were all new, sure. But seriously, the one word I hear far, far, far, far too much in any...

    The craziest/funniest bug you seen in Skyrim

    I'll try to see if I can get the bug to reoccur, even though it crashed my game last time. The Battle-Maiden lady outside her shop in the Dragonsreach area had every single item in the game in her sales inventory. Game crapped out before it could let me even scroll through the list, let alone...

    Who are the good guys in Skyrim?

    Stormcloaks, though bigoted, are only guilty of letting the guy who can do the best Bill O'Reilly impression (TALK LOUD OVER YOU) take the talking stick. Racism is everywhere in Skyrim, and frankly, the Nords have every right to feel threatened, insulted, and angry at anybody that isn't a Nord...

    Your in-game phobias

    Heights. Skyrim is amazing in several ways, but some of the mountaintop views make my stomach lurch up into my throat and my derriere clenches up with vicegrip strength to keep me from crapping myself. All I can think of is how absolutely horrifying falling to my own death would be, or worse...

    Why do we put up with trolls and assholes? (PSN, XBL, and Online gaming in general)

    The major unfortunate factor in all of this, and the unbannability of a troll, is that like their DnD counterpart, a troll will try to regenerate when reprimanded for harassing the peaceful, good-natured locals. (Some even ignore the usual racial weakness of fire(y speech) and acid(ic retorts))...
