We're all going to experience changes in our life but only the best of us will qualify for front row seats.

I think they were talking about who the character portraits were based off in BG2, not about personalities.

Yeah, Tori Spelling and Brendan Fraser might be a bit of a stretch, but as for Ranger "Valygar Corthala"...


With their next game NeverWinter Nights they ended up having to replace a couple portraits in a patch, because apparently they didn't own the rights to the photos they were copying. Which means that this was a common thing?

I could have sworn that I read in the 1st or 2nd edition campaign setting for the realms that the background info section on the planet (Aber-Toril) has some sort of weird electromagnetic field that makes electronics useless there.

So that no matter what, their society could never really advance beyond early 20th century Earth, even if all the magic disappeared.

Either the ranger Vin Diesel reference is Minsc in which case you're totally off base, or it's a character I've completely forgotten in which case your point is proven.

Naw, Minsc is straight Peter Delouise in his Seaquest makeup.

This works surprisingly well because according to the latest lore dumps the political and economic reality of Baldur's Gate is so corrupt and exploitative, the lower classes have spontaneously developed unions and class consciousness. There's even an anarcho-communist gang of gnome artists that are stockpiling gunpowder for something.

Best advice I was ever given?

"Ticker, you'll be a lot happier once you stop caring about the opinions of a culture that is beneath you."

I learned my worth, learned the places and people that matter.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?
