I sort of wish those mystery giveaways would 'reveal' a title or something after the timer. I'm always so curious about what they are but never have the guts to enter (or the luck to win) so it would be cool to see a reveal.
 
Historical fiction about the Roman emperor Claudius. Since this is GAF, he's most likely talking about the TV series based on the novel. But you never know, GAF has a reading subgroup if I recall correctly.

Oh that BBC show from 70's....somehow my mind skipped of the name and read it referring to himself (yes for a second time) and someone named Claudius. I guess waking up at 6:20 and driving to the airport has finally taken it's toll on my mind.

Ignore the Fallout Mod Manager, just use the Nexus mod manager. Works great for all the nexus titles.

I HIGHLY recommend NVEC (I even contributed to it in a small way :D)

http://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/44204/?

If you get that, anti-crash comes with it.

Other than that, just be sure to follow the install instructions for the hud mods exactly or you'll have a bad time.

And yes to MTUI. Either that or DARNified, one of the two. The original UI is awful.


For something to spice it up more, however, check out the monster mods.

http://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/42136/?

dogtown does great work. There are issues with it because of the troubles with nexus policies that changed how the mod works, but it's still mostly awesome.

Thanks for the links, I think I was using DARNified last time I played but I forgot the name.

But where would be the fun in that if it was actually Bad Rats?
 
There's definitely a gray area between visual novels and adventure games! I consider the AA series more visual novel-like because it's a lot more text than adventuring, but they're kind of both.

Japanese games tend to have more text than their western counterpart. It is not like you can say Ghost Trick is a visual novel because it has a lot of text.

Ghost Trick is a puzzle game.

Would you consider Telltale Games visual novels?

Oh and hope Shadownet is okay.
 
Which should I play first, Gemini Rue or Siberia?

I liked Gemini Rue more. The main character is more of a hard-boiled, gruff, likable jerk. The story is also more of a sci-fi than a contemporary steampunk fiction. The only thing I didn't like about Gemini Rue was the stupid shooting minigame.

Syberia has more interesting environments, and mostly better puzzles. The main character is sort of a stuck-up bitch. Also it's hard to see why she made the choice she did in endgame, but they had to set up a sequel somehow.

Woah is everything okay dude? What happened?

Hope you came out of it okay, bro.

Oh, crap. Hope everything is ok :

Sorry man, hope it wasn't too serious

Sucks to hear :/

I'm guessing you weren't hurt, thankfully.

Oh god, how are you?

omg you ok man?? :eek:

Sorry to hear that, hope you're fine.

Wait what now, damn man hope everything is ok, and it wasn´t to serious. :/

Hope everything is alright.

I hope everything's okay.

I hope you're okay! Let us know when you can. You have many friends here, and we're all hoping you're safe.

Gosh, sorry to hear that. Glad that you can type, hope it's okay?

Hopefully nothing major happened to you and whoever might have been with you/was on the other ride.

Some guy break suddenly on the highway when everyone is going like 60mph, the guy in front of me slam on his break and then I hit that guy. My bumper is a bit messed up but I got a concussion. Head is killing me right now. I'm at the hospital they're checking out my head and leg.

The other two people in the other cars are fine. Just scrapes.

I'm alright though. Thanks guy.

Somehow you will get blamed because you are expected to stop.

Oh shit dude try to take it easy, concussions are never fun. Good to hear you're alright though, just try to take it easy for the rest of the day. This guy just slammed his brakes in the middle of a moving freeway though? Sometimes hearing these stories make me glad I don't have to live in LA now and deal with the freeway system there, especially during the rainy season.


Be very careful with that. You'll need lots of lying in darkness and almost no PC/TV usage.
(Trust me, after 15 of the bloody things, you get to know the drill)

Very smart info, I've only been through 4 of them myself, but you can never be too careful regarding a concussion.

Man that sucks, hope you take it easy and stop browsing GAF, reading on a small screen (I'm assuming) can't be great for concussion.

From everything I've seen, Ghost Trick looks like a puzzle game with visual novel elements.

It's ridiculous how much time it takes. Next time I do it, I will probably just back everything up.

For me the real time sink is discovering what's new, what I overlooked and what will be suitable this time round - can be a couple of days easy, just going through page after page of mods, site after site.

Good to hear Shadownet and companions are OK, given the circumstances.

I played DanganRonpa this spring and while I liked it god damn was it verbose. You don't have to repeat every single little thing 5 times, game. Unlike Ace Attorney you can button through text fast though, that made me quit that series halfway through the first game.

TWD and TWAU are definitely visual novels, just with timed responses and QTEs.
