Hmmm, I have to say the game art looks really lovely (I'm a sucker for watercolour). Might have won me over if it was a point-and-click-adventure.
Clearly, Mari has hidden talents. |

Nah, I just usually don't bring my obsessions into a conversation unless the conversation is already about that subject. Besides, it tends to ruin my image as an adult and a teacher when I tell people that I love Harvest Moon. Though for some reason it is acceptable for me to play RPGs like Fable and Oblivion (which were boring by the way once you figured out the system which I did rather quickly).
I love board games as well. I have a whole cupboard full. Unfortunately I don't know many people to play them with, but I do bring them to school sometimes to use them in class.

As for Fable, I never got very far into it so I can't say whether or not it were boring lol

Eärniel, I'd still highly recommend giving it a shot. The storyline and beautiful art might just win you over... and it is not a hard game even slightly. Just beautiful and fun, although I guess Mari didn't care for it too much.
I enjoyed Fable but I wouldn't play it again... too much grinding for levels. Same for Oblivion, I did not enjoy it. I loved Skyrim though... good fun, pretty graphics, fun storyline. Good times. I remember my sisters and I spending hours playing the old LotR rpgs that were on floppy disks. By Interplay. |

Tess, your computer have a malfunction?
Speaking of Skyrim, I need to finish my game...

Quad post! That looks pretty cool! I just realized I had a few doubles in the Quote Game, and took them out. Tessar - do you want to clean up your own mess, or does someone else have to do it?

I've got the N3DS version of Golden Sun. Now that keeps me occupied. *grins* And if we're talking about a really challenging game: I keep playing Civilization III, year in year out. Civ IV and V were way too easy, but I still haven't won Civ III. (Mostly because I'm too stubborn to let go of my idea of how a civilization should work)

Don't use those hacks! It's that simple. If you play Skyrim on PC, btw, I can point you to a few mods - you won't complain about the game being too easy after that... For example, "Revenge of the Enemies" and "Potions Animated" will do a lot. Revenge makes all enemies smarter/more numerous/tougher, while Potions makes you actually stop and drink the thing in real time - no more spamming dem potions.

I love the snipe and sneak. My favorite part of playing a rogue archer. My wood elf does that a lot in caves

See? Even the friggin' President of Entmoot agrees with me!
As for me, pretty much every character I play - who's not a mage - uses bow sneak attacks. It's simply so useful. Especially since I use the Deadly Headshots mod with the heavy helmet exception - as long as the victim of a headshot is not using a heavy helm, they die. Instantly.

Now who is using cheats? At least I figured out the system fare and square.
And I actually usually fight as a bow/magic user hybrid. I don't like up close fights because I can't see what's going on very well and it gives me headaches. Also, I prefer light armour over heavy armour so I can collect more ingredients on the way. In Fable I had a lovely katana imbued with lightning which would shoot bolts of lightning when I waved the thing around. I loved that thing.

Well, I figured out the system in Harvest Moon as well, but I still buy every new HM game that comes out and enjoy them for hours and hours on end. It just means Oblivion and Skyrim weren't that good.

Now I imagine you stroking your copy of Oblivion and Skyrim, NEL, while whispering "Be still, my precious, she does not know of what she speaks."

Haha, exactly, Ëarn!
And thanks for the news, I'd been away for quite a while. Didn't know we had a dictator - so who is it? *plotting*
