When I read the title I thought you meant levelling down. Maybe if you had to set up the dungeons and move the- No wait that's already been done Dungeon master. D: Almost right. Dungeon Keepers (and later Evil Genius) are the make-your-own-hero-proof-dungeon games. Dungeon Keeper games had a fantas...

Wow! I just found about a series of book that seems like it was inspired by Redwall, from a VERY promising author: Linky Cover: http://www.garry-kilworth.com/images/coverlarge_gaslightgeezers.jpg Synopsis: "Montagu Sylver is a famous weasel detective, intent on solving mysteries. Can he ferret ...

It's like an MMO, real-time combat (no auto-attack bs) where you play as the creatures and fight the people. That's all I've got so far... I mean would you play something like that? So instead of playing as humans and dwarves and elves, you'd be like this wild band of monsters that go raid the &quo...

Offcourse that's what lugaru was all about: it's unique combat system (which i think is awesome) but eventually it became too trivial. Take a game such as bethesda's The elder scrolls IV Oblivion, strip it off of all the roleplaying, interacting with npc's and choices of where to go next. Wouldn't ...

Arg... Seriously, who actually plays console games anymore. :x Everyone who doesn't want to worry about upgrading their computer, people who don't want to pay huge wad of money for a gaming computer when they can get a console and non-gaming computer for the same amount, people who have a huge TV a...

What's with this "when I was a kid" Stuff? I still read the new ones that he seemingly endlessly cranks out. I only stopped reading because the author recycles so many elements in each book. I might enjoy them if I tried them again. Has anyone heard about or read Mouse Guard ? I think it'...

I can't decide which would be more awesome, people riding on the back of a giant robotic dinosaur, or a giant robotic person riding on the back of a giant robotic dinosaur. Both have been done AGES ago, and probably several times at that. Dinoriders, Power Rangers etc. http://i40.tinypic.com/2hwptl...

Yeah, antlers. Thanks for the correction. Why cavalry rule: they're big, scary, intimidating. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZXTf2e8BMM Some types of cavalry are more intimidating than others: http://theminiaturespage.com/news/pics/2005/may/915925a.jpg Draft horses probably weren't used as warhorse...

Future Vikings side with bears. http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1410/1262584641_e1d9e0e063.jpg That's more Russia. Besides that, bear cavalry is pretty bad. Bears sleep during winter, may eat the riders if they aren't fed, and if someone gets close enough the bear would try to stand up and use its c...

EDIT: I'm moving this to a new thread, because I found lots of nice images. To the cavalry thread!

Well the christian vikings had horns on their helmets, but I wanted him to be a real norse viking. And no he isn't rich, he just knows how to pillage and loot :twisted: If he's not rich, why does he have huge golden jewelry? :D I really like his blocky shape, very strong-looking. His wrists seem so...

I'd love an "ignore thread" option, for all kinds of random threads about unnecessary things.

Wouldn't work. People would compile a list of achievement requirements and put it online.

I really can't see how trawling through a game's landscape for meaningless orbs takes any skill whatsoever. Also, I really don't see how something requiring skill or effort makes it worthwhile. That's like saying that going through a haystack for a needle is worthwhile because the needle was hard t...

That may well be the case, but in the example Ren is referring to there is absolutely zero challenge. Prototype has 250* orbs scattered about the environment, usually on top of various buildings. They aren't marked on the mini-map or anything, so finding them all prettymuch requires the player to m...
