i guess the weirdest gay experience i ever had was when i met up with a guy who didnt tell me he still lived with his parents and he let me in through the front door and his dad was like 5 feet away on the couch watching tv. thankfully i had just gotten off ofwork and i was still wearing slacks and a tie

"Thank you, coxxmaxx6969 I'm very glad to look over your automobile financing agreement to see if refinancing can be a good option for you. If this isn't too much to ask, do you mind setting up a CreditKarma account?" i said as we held hands walking up to his room

7 minutes later i walked down the steps and nodded at his dad and left never to speak to any of them again

BG2 has voice acting? How much and is it all good? That increases the chances I'll play it, honestly. Good acting gives so much more life to a game.

like for an example: I was looking up the stronghold quests and the one that gets you a castle (if youre a fighter, monk, or barbarian) is like seven or eight quests deep and involves lotsa battles and poo poo

there's a custom stronghold quest line for most classes and they're kinda interesting and unique to each class (a bard gets a theatre, a wizard a magic sphere thing, a fighter a castle, a ranger some baloogan shack, etc). theyre 100% optional and only a fraction of what the rest of the game has to offer

that's more effort than recent bioware games put in major plotlines

it has character blurbs like starcraft's unit blurbs

you shouldn't seek out rpgs w/ voice acting imo because the huge expense that rises with every line that has to be recorded always limits the depth of the designers' ambition and reduces the complexity of the dialogue (unless obsidian is the developer)

nah, I should because voice acting is really cool and actors bring characters to life more than text and animations
