Been working last couple of weeks non-stop so not been able to get online outside of work hours on a decent connection. Bought myself Temple of the Elemental Evil and settled in for some good ol' single player D & D nonsense.
Its been so long since I'd played this kind of stuff I'd forgotten the simple pleasure of webbing everything then nuking it to bits.
Of course being me I tend to get it wrong at times and manage to web all my own fighters.
(Makes sidenote: don't waste web on spiders. Like, duh)
I was really disappointed by Neverwinter Nights and am finding this a lot more fun, even though its missing some of the depth here and there. Even a numpty like me can figure out what the big dungeon in the game is called and where I'm going to end up.
The big logic gap for me is the same as in all these types of games. After you've used your spells and potions you can scoot off back to town to resupply and a get good night's kip. Now, lets be honest, any self-respecting evil dungeon boss is going to find out pretty damned fast that some bunch of do-gooders is after him and is going to send his hordes out to stomp them into little bitty pieces, not sit at the bottom of his dungeon watching Ant & Dec while over the period of several months (game time) a small party nibbles their way through his evil army he's spent years building.
Just a shame that once again there is a game that still fails to have Werepandas in it. Oh well, maybe next time
