So whats going on in here?
A man's gotta do what a man's gotta do....
You're playing Kingdoms of Amalur? What's your impression so far and what type of character did you make?
Her lower half isn't even the same skin tone!
I like it so far, it's colorful and I like the silliness of it. I made a... whatever the last one was. Elfy looking character. As a mage/alchemist type. Speaking of alchemy, damn reagent collecting. D: I even put a point into that skill, but it is still difficult.
I'm pretty sure that is because of the shadow.
Her lower half is also too short. She looks all scrunched.

If I'm being honest, I wouldn't waste a single point in alchemy. Your character becomes so insanely overpowered very soon that you have little need for potions or poisons. Especially if you figure out Sagecrafting and Blacksmithing.

It's so she can read six books at once.

Is it just me, or is the MGS theme by far the best theme of any..."mature" game? >_>
It's true.
You're a good man. Thank you very much =).

Thanks for your help you bitches.
You know perfectly well I wasn't talking about the photoshopped horsey image!
I not using alchemy because I think it would be helpful, I'm using it because whenever I play games I enjoy the hell out of alchemy.

Exam Time *gulp*
I assume the answer is yes but didn't answer because I didn't know the answer was yes and didn't want to mislead you with misleading answers, namely "yes."
Good luck, exambones!

Patriotism is dumb.
I don't understand people who go on about how patriotic they are.

Where's this coming from? I mean I kind of agree... just wondering.

Done with exam. I think I did alright (I spent over 9hrs studying for this fucking thing yesterday so I had better do good). Just hope I get a good enough grade to pass the class

No, nationalism is dumb. Saying "My country is better than the other ones" is nationalism. Saying "I love my country and want to help make it as cool as possible" is patriotism. The latter is an awesome thing that more people should subscribe to.
Edit: The distinction is actually muddier than the strict divide that I describe above. My comments are rather biased and pretend that the English language are easy to work with. Go America!

Well, good thing respecing is cheap and easy in this game because when you're top level and need those points and are done messing around will silly drink concoctions, you'll want those precious ability points =P
Good luck on exams, guys.
Crappy quality, I know, but my Amalur character:
Hmm... angular chin. Long nose. Lean cheekbone profile, eyes leaning towards an almond shape, sculpted eyebrows, full lips...... its almost uncanny. If your toon were redheaded, it'd be almost an exact match.

Y'know, some elves are just dark. Fucking racism, man.
Except she really is maybe undead. D:
Also, Hawk! D: What are you implying?
ALSO, I play on Easy so I don't have to worry about things like point allocation and can just have fun with it.
Well, there goes our future together.
Harsh.Hooray!
Fortunately it doesn't bother my boyfriend that I like to play on Easy with some games.
AND TO BE FAIR (to me) I like difficult PUZZLES, but anything that requires actual coordination I'm going to fail at if the difficulty is too high.
edit: Also, the only thing that annoys me in Amalur is that the script is obviously assuming you're a male human warrior. Sometimes it feels out of place with me being NONE of those things.

There's nothing wrong with that, videogames should be for everybody!
I've personally never played a game on Easy unless it was legitimately broken, and typically go for the highest difficulty available from the first playthrough (though I sometimes have to scale back down once humbled. I'm looking at you Starcraft 2).

You can abuse easy.
A friend of mine always played on the easiest level of the original Civilization. He'd basically play the whole game making peace treaties and breaking them with sudden massed invasions, and the other civs could do nothing, because Chieftain.
So there's no challenge at all, and the game is then just an excuse to symbolically slaughter millions of people. This practice may very well have fed his existing anger issues. They certainly didn't abate until a decade or more after he stopped playing, anyway.

There are some things that change based on the selected race, actually. Don't know about gender or fate selection.
