		<description>I don&#039;t be sure how you explicit that! but I was watching this mini series call out 
Ogden the Unbefitting Yoga Send up and it&#039;s incredibly queer, 
each stretch he mentions those people berries
 I cannot help my curiousity. Does any yourself skilled in 
what they&#039;re or if they exist??

		<description>The only thing that makes NWN2 epic is multiplayer and modding, seriously, that is probably the only thing it did right. The content written by Obsidian is BS I realize it was probably written for nerds by nerds, but neither gamers nor fans of the paper and pen took notice it was like a transparent undertone to what was essentially a cliched and bugged journey. Worse yet the expansions released dropped in fun, mechanics and hours spent.</description>

		<description>My iPhone has a decent sized crack in the screen, and i was wondering what should i tell the genius bar workers is wrong with my phone (other than the screen) so they will replace my iphone. I need something that they can&#039;t really check right then, and will have them just replace my phone

		<description>It wasn&#039;t DRM that was at issue. That was a big factor, but more in delaying the release and exposing it to the real issue.
NWN2 just didn&#039;t deliver... The modules were buggy, and the patching process made it worse - I don&#039;t recall a single update that didn&#039;t require a hot-fix patch soon after.
Finally now that MoW is released, you have fewer potential sales, as the player base dissipated due to the lack of quality in the base product.</description>

		<description>@ Jacques - there is a big difference between DRM and copy protection software. That list makes no differentiation between the two. Most of the Tages/securom stuff i am fine with because they do not require internet and authentication servers to be able to play your game. 

I don&#039;t expect games to ship without copy protection but i do not like buying games with DRM.

I guess you define DRM differently to myself otherwise we wouldn&#039;t have had this little aside. :)</description>

		<description>Another fan of Mysteries of Westgate. It&#039;s a shame the whole DRM thing overshadowed/delayed its release, as it&#039;s a really good adventure, and worthy of a larger audience.</description>

		<description>I liked a lot of things about LOTRO, but one of the things that ultimately didn&#039;t work for me was precisely how low magic it is. There are only a couple of &quot;caster&quot; classes and even then you&#039;re more throwing bags of powder around than using honest to goodness magic. I like high magic settings much, much more. Else it&#039;s hardly even worth making it fantasy.</description>

		<description>This seems like as good an opportunity as any to talk about a controversial issue I have put some thought into:
Voiceover makes RPGs and Adventures worse. It&#039;s boring to listen to these guys talk for that long. Nobody talks that long in real life. It&#039;s OK if you read it, because then you are still doing something, and it&#039;s over more quickly. But listening to the voiceovers during conversations takes so long, and I am just doing nothing during that time. Reading along also doesn&#039;t work, because I read faster than they talk, and then their talking is just distracting. Add to that that most actors for games simply aren&#039;t very good, and I think it would be a better decision to not record voiceovers for any conversation that takes longer than a minute in games.</description>

		<description>@duoae overstatement? Not really, take a look at this list http://forum.daemon-tools.cc/gamedb.php?letter=all Hell, just look at how many games have securom on them, it&#039;s a rather massive list.

I agree that authentication/activation DRM for single player content is a little heavy handed, but how many games these days ship without any sort of multiplayer content?</description>

		<description>@Jacques - That&#039;s gross overstatment.... clearly i would not have bought any of the games i&#039;ve been playing for the last five years if that were the case. 

On the other hand, you&#039;ll note that i specifically say authentication/activation DRM for singleplayer and local content. I have bought multiplayer games with this form of DRM because i require access to their servers anyway to play the game..... i still don&#039;t like being tied to their untrustworthy and unstable services (tough economic climate anyone?) but if i want to play with other people then most games these days won&#039;t let you P2P between each of the players without first going through their servers.... i think it&#039;s a sorry state of affairs.</description>
