Was FF:SW an official Final Fantasy or did it just share names with the series? Didn't seem to have any relation to the series but of course I would have no way of knowing.

I had no problem with the animation. I thought all were very well done.

I think Tomb Raider is more for the nerd boys than girls.

Spirits within had nothing to do with any Final Fantasy anything I'd played. It might have been the same design or animation team.
 
My husband and son do that and I wouldn't have trouble with it...except that I'm not interested, really.

I'm a determined soloist in roleplay games that just require me. I'm not into raiding and the only times I've participated in a raid I've been grateful to not have a microphone because I'd have spent too much time cracking up over how serious people were about pretend stuff.

They get a microphone and then spend most of that time telling people not to talk...

Women have done okay though, mostly it just surprises the hell out of guys that their badass guild leader is a chick. I approve.

I've used mikes for PC and Xbox stuff, and it varies. And yeah, the uber-serious people kinda make me laugh. I mean, I went to war for real, so squalling about pretend battles is pretty funny. I do the solo rpg thing, too, but am also into some of the MMOs, but haven't found one I love yet...

*sigh*

Yes! I like to have fun, but my attitude is often not appreciated as I'm busy messing around and enjoying myself and my pet will take the wrong path and I'm laughing and making people angry. I can't take it seriously, but I see no need to force my company on those who do.

I have an excellent setup on Warcraft and Everquest II so I wander back and forth. One gets an expansion, I go back, the other gets an expansion, I go back. Right now it's EQII time. Played Warcraft since it came out and EQII since 2005, so it's just nice to come home to a fully stocked guild and all the bells and whistles.

Yeah, I walked away from Warcraft...just too much of a timesink....and I played on Moonguard, which had its own issues for a long time. Trying TOR now, and of course ME1, 2, and 3.

:D
 
Well, I'm in a privileged position of being in a minority female in a male dominated area.

Gamer chicks get the pick of the best guys.

It's true though. Our sexual currency is matched by our L33T skills, and it makes us highly desirable mates. :D

I'm lucky in another way, I work at home on the computer and I have a nice system with two monitors. One for work, one for play.

Also why I mostly solo. I'm afk all the time. I'm never >just< gaming. I'm too settled into a system of permanent multitask.
 

LOL! As I'm navigating the vagaries of companions that are either unhappy if I don't kill everybody or furious at me if I do kill everybody...I GET THIS!

My son was standing behind me shaking my shoulders "Don't laugh so hard, mom, you're gonna die!"

Must show Ulaven.

He cracked up the other day in SWOTOR when an NPC on Alderaan said "I hate this planet, I hope someday someone blows it up."

Let me know if he likes it. :D
 
Hehe. I get my laptop back from the shop today, and am looking forward to dragging my sith out to play....

:D

He was going to play DA2, but I got obsessed. Finished one runthrough then said "Okay, anybody else want a try?" I figured they could finish while I was replaying DA1 and setting up the best character to load into the DA2 import.

But that only took me four days and by that time I figured they'd finish, but he'd only gotten about 20 minutes into the game. I hijacked it back.

Now on third runthrough. Contemplating fourth.

It might be a while.

Ha! Was thinking about reloading DA and running it again.....hmmmm

:D

With all of the expansions it's fun. I hadn't played Awakenings, and that has a character as a companion that's also a companion in DA2. Loading import sets into the expansion and DA2 gives you different outcomes.

First time I played Awakenings I had just picked a random character and Wynne just about spit on me and Alastair didn't remember me. Ut oh. Lady mad. Man amnesiac.

Setting up a good DA1 outcome was worth it. I might even go back through and rerun it again and load it into both expansion and DA2 also to see what changes.

Second time Wynne was nice and Alastair said he married an Invincible Goddess. Muuuuch better!

Hmmm, that's not good. Yeah, I've been reading some of the novels, so I'm jonesing to get back into it....plus, I lurve me Leilanna :D

She's adorable. She's always my main choice if I play a male character. She shows up in DA2 also tangentially a few times.

You don't play the warden, but you do get to meet characters based on who you...well...left alive or were nice to in the original. Alastair, Zevran, Leliana, Teagan...

Once I met Alastair and he'd said "Loghain is unfortunately still alive..."

My first thought is "No way, I never left that son of a bitch alive once. A few times I fed him to a dragon and left you as a broken drunk but...uh...yes your majesty."

That's why loading my universe is so much better!
 
AAAANNNNDDD THE TESTS ARE CONFIRMED!!!

I'm a very happy boy now! :D
