ROWAN'S PROFILE
Rowan
131
I'm just a guy interested in making an RPG. I started using RPG Maker way back in RM2k days. My first game was wiped out when my old CPU crashed so yeah.. I decided to make a new one and have been working on it ever since. I mostly enjoy lurking around the RMN forums but I've decided to become more active in the community. I can be a smart-ass at times, but I'm generally an easy going friendly dude.
P.S: Oh yeah, I'm gay (seriously)

What Videogames Are You Playing Right Now?
Currently Playing Dragon Age: Origins and I must say, I love this game just as much as Craze does.
I'm playing the game on hard mode right now and will soon do another play-through on Nightmare. My team consists of a my main character (2H-Sword Warrior), Alistair (Sword and Board Tank), Wynne (Healing Granny), and whoever. I usually end up choosing Leliana because of her lockpicking skills. She's also my Archer/Ranger as well.
The characters (besides Sten IMO) are REALLY well done and each possess a certain charm like none-other. Alistair is so adorkable, while Wynne is a badass healing Grandma. Hearing the party converse with each other about nonsense only adds to their charm. It is a definite step up from the "Tales of" games skits. There's even romance options, gifts, etc. The voice work ranges from really well done (Steve Valentine's voice as Alistair is PERFECT) to hilarious:
Steve Blum (VA of Spike Spiegel from Cowboy Bebop) voice returns once again this time as the redneckish dwarf Oghren. That's expected though cause his voice is everywhere.
As far as gameplay goes, it's basically a single player World of Warcraft except you control 4 characters at once. The only gripe I had about the gameplay is your party members AI. Often times your party members are a little unresponsive about what is going on around them; and while tactics do help, there aren't settings for all situation that may occur.
Really, there's just SOO much I can say about this game! This western RPG definitely one-upped ALOT of the current JRPGs.
Despite all the negative feedback about the game, I'll be playing Dragon Age 2 as soon as I'm finished with Awakening.
------------------------
On another note, I'm also playing that one flash card game called Urban Rivals. It's kinda like playing poker but not. It's pretty fun. Most of the cards have great artwork. Although some are just lulz like this,

marvel vs capcom 3
Zoning is still the best tactic in the game. You can't go wrong with an Arthur, Sentinel, Dante team.

I'm not sure F-G's opinion is getting across effectively. :-)
As much attention this review is getting, I think it's getting across fine :P.

You're saying people that don't agree with aspects of the review shouldn't post comments on it?
He's merely mentioning an effective (and alternative) way to get an opinion across. He didn't mention anything about comments at all actually.
