[QUOTE=cdr248;43683199]In the advanced search section of the nexus they have a 'humor' tag that you can filter for.[/QUOTE]
Wasn't aware of that, thanks. Hilariously stupid mods, here I come!
[QUOTE=Elspin;43681606]Score, battlespire in (mostly) working order. There's one odd thing in the config - scale is set to "false" which is an invalid parameter but I'm guessing it meant none? Either way it's on to trying to set up battlespire for multiplayer now[/QUOTE]
I invited my friend over who wanted to try it out with me and we started playing battlespire on LAN, at first we were having a lot of fun but then he got stuck in a pit of lava not dying but no way out, and when I tried to hop down to kill him to get him out I got stuck in a wall :v:
Wow, exploring Solstheim with graphical mods and having no knowledge of what this island would be like is amazing. I also love the little goblin guys, of course I sided with them against the Nord assholes.
So how is Battlespire?
I enjoyed it when I played it, though it's quite glitchy.
It's almost Bethesda's own Dungeon Master/Diablo hybrid (kinda)

Just be aware playing co-op removes all dialogue from the game, everything that would talk to you (with voice acting) in SP will just attack you, or be replaced by notes in MP.
I remember it was especially painful in the sixth (maybe?) level where the NPCs that are supposed to tell you what's going on - those being powerful daedra - will outright kill you instead.
Also sorry I wasn't of any help, I don't have Battlespire anymore (where'd you get it btw?)
[QUOTE=DiscoInferno;43684379]So how is Battlespire?[/QUOTE]
It can be pretty fun to play with a friend, we just did the soul cairn for giggles which was pretty hard on level 1 characters with no gear :v:
One thing that's really neat is like once you get the resto spell, you can choose how it casts rather than having to get a whole new spell that is targeted or on touch

Yeah that makes sense, we did have some troubles at first but we mostly negated it by the fact that you can just infinitely respawn. As for how I got it I just googled it, bethesda doesn't list it anywhere and it's for sale nowhere I could find so I just googled around until I found it packaged with dosbox (poorly, not working of course)
I cant believe teso comes out in a couple of months!

You planning on getting it? So far the opinion has been pretty negative in this thread so I haven't really thought about trying to bring in FP on a guild or anything :v:
TESO is going to be the Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel of the TES franchise

I beta tested it and all I can say is that overall it is satisfying and easily worth the money if you don't mind it not being exactly like skyrim. It definately has the elder-scrolls feel to it, and the gameplay feels quite similar, although certain spells and whatnot break that illusion. Overall it was quite rewarding and extremely well written and voice, I also couldn't complain about the graphics.

I've actually played the most recent beta, I wasn't asking how good it was I was just saying I wasn't sure how many other people would get it :v:
I'm going to be making a guild for my own gaming group but anyone from FP would definitely be welcome

It is decided then. But what faction?

I suppose we can have Branches for the different factions, I assume most people won't be sticking to one character.

I'm really torn on factions because my favourite races got split across the 3 factions but I'll most likely be in Daggerfall covenant as a Breton
Ebonheart Pact as Argonian Master Race, if I ever play it.

Aside from RP reasons they have one really good passive (increased healing from all sources) and the rest are all pretty awful :v:

I might have fixed my saving issue in Skyrim, unfortunately it involves me starting a new character.

My merge
I would have realy expected most players (out of the minority who play TESO) to be apart of the dunmer/nord/argonian team. I mean High/wood elves are unpopular. Breton, orsimer and redguards aren't as popular as dunmer/nord/argonians.

Meh, the 3 races I usually play in TES games are dunmer, breton and high elves with probably a majority being breton. A lot of people play orcs and redguard in any case, in skyrim at least they were 2 of the best races hands down due to their unique racial powers
Races I play are Khajiit/Dunmer/Breton or if I feel like I wanna play with big lifty things I go Redguard or Orc.
I don't know if anyone has posted this, but the main Dragon Break was called the Middle Dawn, and was caused by the Alessian's attempt to destroy the Mer. Could perhaps the next game cover the Final Dawn, where the Mer attempt to destroy Man?
Also if it is going to be a Dragon Break, it could play out where time isn't messed up at all in your character's perception, because he is playing through one path that time can take (his choice of sidequests and stuff), and in the next game there would be a book like The Warp in the West explaining that shit was all weird.

That'd be cool.
Are we really starting another "Whose race is the best race"
[sp]Nord master race[/sp]
Sometimes I hate loving these games.

Finding it wasn't the hard part, it was letting go.
