A Spore Nerd Corner

Pillars of Eternity (PoE) has to be some of the most fun I've had in awhile. PoE screams of D&D and the old Baldur's Gate games. I haven't seen games made in this style for so long now it's nice to see what is hopefully a comeback. The character creator had a ton of options to pick from. It took me forever to make up my mind on what I wanted to play as. While a lot of games give you character options that don't actually effect the game, in PoE I've started two characters and both have had slight changes in the conversations and actions I can take. The combat can be changed from a more active combat, where you jump from character to character making the game more hectic and difficult. Or you can go more old school, being able to pause and unpause as is needed giving you more control over what's going on. I can't tell you how much fun I've been having with this game so far and I can't wait to get further into it. If you like old school RP...

Well that could have gone smoother... I was really happy at first. I picked up Warlords first thing in the morning and only had to wait in a short line to get it, good times. Warlords installed super fast, all the codes that came with it went in with no problems and life was good. I even got to play threw the opening sequence of the game without any lag or disconnecting issues. Then then the problems came. I shouldn't say problems really. The only problem I had was that I kept getting kicked out of the expansion zone, then the game. When I would log back in I found myself in Stormwind, where my hearthstone was set to, and when I would try to use the new Garrison Hearthstone to go back to where I was, it wouldn't work. This happened to me a couple times before I decided to just stop for a couple hours. When I came back later that night it didn't happen again. So what do I think of the expansion so far? I'm having a lot of fun. The story has me hooked, not to mention ...
