Lost World 3DS was cool. U not so much because it had wonky physics. =P

 

Backlog is a problem for me, or I'd be more hyped. =P /still not even halfway through Xenoblade

I don't really want to play XBC. Not abig JRPG fan.

Wow. I... I've never seen someone just diss a game like that.

Well, at least not since Sonic: Lost World.

You're... not interested in Fallout 4...
 
What is wrong with you?

Yeah, I've never had that happen to me, and I've bought 3 or 4 360s and a DS Lite from Walmart.

Also, wow. That was a short hype train for Fallout 4. You'd think such an anticipated game would receive more fanfare. Anyone got themselves a Fallout 4 Hype Train photo?

I'll just sit here, give you two thumbs up for effort, and continue to leave things the way they are with my character. Agreeable?

 

The only answer is yes, by the way.

 

EDIT: Of course, if you look on UESP, and then use that language tree thing they have and click on the names of the languages? It just takes you back to the different races, and barely mentions anything about their language - or even says anything at all if you're lucky - for all of them. Heck, all it says for the Altmer is that Tamrielic is descended from Altmeris. Which is descended from Aldmeris - which is only mentioned as being "the language of the Aldmer and the name of their homeland" - which in turn apparently comes from old Ehlnofex.

Also, yeah, there should be a group of people working on writing articles for the different languages.

Until then, I'll just assume your character's speaking Tamrielic or Dunmeris, unless specified otherwise.

I don't think Nordic is in use or was even canon. The link redirects to the Nord page and there's nothing there about the Nordic language. I was mistaken.

My idea was that Makuta did make the MoUP, but only so he could stop his power-hungry brother. He uses the mask, but it takes control of him, digging deep within Makuta to find his deepest desire; to stop his brother. They fight, and Makuta defeats Ekimu, sealing him away. In remorse for the destruction he caused, Makuta seals both himself and Ekimu away so that no one would ever find the mask again.

Okay, double checked, the Nords speak Tamrielic. That means he might only have to know Tamrielic, Dunmeris and maybe Aldmeris.

Of course, Elias is a bard. From what I know of bards, it's not uncommon for them to be polyglots.

EDIT: Actually, if we look closely at the wording, Elias can only speak Tamrielic and Nordic, because no Elven province is a part of the Empire anymore, though I assume most everyone in the RP knows Dunmeris.

Actually, if we're just counting the men and mer that are part of the Empire (or were part of it) then we'd only have Aldmeris, whatever Bosmer speak, Dunmeris, Tamrielic, maybe Nordic. It's possible to know five languages.

Good job, Silvan! Have an internet cookie.

Congrats on receiving such a high honor. 

Now... *puts on evillen German ACHcent* Vat ist your plan to deal vit zee troublesome rey-bills? I propose a high-powered nuculear assault. 

Meh heh heh...

No. Hahli is.

Should the Toa Inika been Jaller, Macku, Kongu, Onepu, Hewkii and Matoro, instead of having Hahli and Nuparu?

They don't face the same social pressure we have from decades of suppression from monotheistic religions. So being gay would not bother them one bit.

Uh oh.

Here come the "religion = no gays" debates ag-Wait..

Sorry. Forgot this wasn't a YouTube comments section.

In response to the full post... Yeah, absolutely right. Good job, Carum.

IC (Kelh) [Narsis - The Lucky Guar]

 

"Sorry to disappoint."

 

With a wolfish grin and uncanny speed I spring to my feet.

 

"Perhaps if you'd been paying attention you'd have realised that the only reason I fell off my chair..."

 

I pick up a fork from the table and twirl it skilfully between my fingers, just to illustrate how non-inebriated I am.

 

"...was because I was laughin' so hard. And I'll give you three guesses what I was laughin' at."

IC Eponine and Courier [Narsis - The Lucky Guar]

"Bloody wood elves..." Eponine whispered under her breath.

Standing up and wrapping her hand in a piece of cloth, she downed her glass of shein and cradled her face in her arms upon the table.

"Aspen," Eponine said, muffled by her own arms. "You suck. You know that?"

As Eponine was about to pour herself another glass of shein, a courier, obviously Dunmer, handed Eponine a sealed letter, and began speaking in pretty heavily accented (though not Narsis-accented) Tamrielic.

"Sera, I got sumtin for ya. Yare ouys only."

"Serjo," Eponine said as she reached into her coin purse and pulled out a few drakes. "Thanks."

"Nah warries."

As the courier walked off, Eponine inspected the letter. Address was from... High Rock, eh... How peculiar. She unsealed the letter. Forgoing the second page, she sighed when she saw the first page.

"Ah... ###### it all to Oblivion..."

IC Eponine [Narsis - The Lucky Guar]

"Yep... But if you haven't noticed, I'm a little drunk at the moment, and judging from your habit to fall off the chair, I'm guessing you are, too.

how did it go in fo2, the population of a vault moved out, settled a town, and that's where the protag was born, right? haven't played it since my fanboy days

 

i'll hold out judgements on the graphics since this wasn't gameplay footage, but i will say i do this the art is a lot better. most importantly, it's a lot more colourful. the new deathclaw looks sort of tryhard but i suppose that's sort of the point.

It wasn't gameplay footage but, from what I could tell, it was in-game footage.

Fo2's protagonist was related to a vault dweller, but wasn't one himself.

Fourth time? No... It was Fallout 1, 3 and now 4. 2 and NV didn't have a vault protagonist, and neither did BoS or Tactics.

As for Vaulty and Dogmeat v3... It's nice to see Dogmeat back for a third time. It's always good to see a boy and his dog kind of story in a Fallout game.

What I'm gushing over is how good this game looks. It's freaking AWESOME looking! Everything looks so good compared to the abomination that was Gamebyro... Again, now I have a reason for getting a PS4 or, better yet, a gaming rig. Probably a PS4, since any rig I can afford will do a severe injustice to this game.

It's rather nice, but it's got a few problems. Firstly, there's a lot of exposed Technic. For vehicles, that's alright, and for some characters, it's also alright. The problem, however, is conjoined with my other problem of having a bajillion different colors. I count 4 different types of green alone. You don't need so many colors.

Other than that, it's really good. The actual design is better than anything I've ever made, bar none.

IC Eponine [Narsis - The Lucky Guar]

THUNK.

"Uh... Aspen... You alright down there?"

Eponine jumped down from the chair and ducked underneath the table. She accidentally put her finger down on top of a loose nail, however, and jumped up, hitting her head on the table.

"Um... did we order tomato soup at some point?" Eponine asked, looking the strange red substance coming off her head.

...I never said it wasn't? I'm not in this argument. Stop trying to justify it and just back down when I ask you to.

Sorry, bad wording coupled with me forgetting who I was talking to.

I can't believe you guys give a ###### about a pretty common saying that isn't grammatically correct

a). Thanks for admitting it's grammatically incorrect, and b). we're on the internet. We're playing a game whose very existence is dependant upon language. Of course we give a hextuple-pound key.

 

It's a pet peeve of mine, alright? It's archaic and just doesn't work as a phrase. It should be "You, believe me." or just "Believe me."

Being archaic doesn't make it wrong, and I will contend that it does work as a phrase. As I had Kelh allude to, it's a marked imperative: it emphasises the instruction to believe.

 

"Don't you dare" uses the exact same piece of grammar--do you have a problem with that too?

 

Bottom line, you don't get to decide something is incorrect because you personally dislike it. If it was good enough for Shakespeare it should be good enough for you.

 

EDIT: Also, the examples Eponine gave are comparing apples to oranges. "I could care less" is wrong, because it says the exact opposite of what it intends to, and "thunk" is generally used ironically anyway.

 

Shakespeare lived hundreds of years ago. English was different then. Don't use him to justify bad English.

Also, "don't you dare" doesn't use the same grammar. While I'm unfamiliar with the name, "don't you dare" follows a structure of verb-subject-verb, whereas "believe you me" is verb-subject-direct object. It's like if I said "Cook you chicken." Is that right? No. No it's not.

I might finally have a reason to buy a PS4. I'd rather have a gaming rig, mind you, but a PS4 seems a bit more reasonable, especially if we get a Black Friday or Cyber Monday sale.

It looks... wrong to me. That's all I can say; it looks wrong.
