    I won't listen to any dissing of the Max Payne series

    Unless it's dissing of the movie, because that was ridiculously underwhelming and hate on the movie is well-deserved

    These are Pharezon opinions, and can easily be discarded.

    Man I am so happy to hear those things about the new Max Payne from a dude who was only minorly enamoured with the first two games

    That seems like sarcasm on a second read, it is not

    Start doing quests and exploring and you'll start finding enchanted items you can disenchant. You'll be swimming in enchants soon.

    I picked up three enchanted items in one old-ass fort and they were all Make Undead Flee

    I guess these two-bit bandits are really scared of those Draugr

    You will get better stuff. Just don't worry about enchanting til then.

    Smithing though.

    Smith like the wind.

    Do me a favour and elaborate, Pharezon

    Better gunplay? Better atmosphere? Better squelchy sound effects when you shoot people?

    All of those things and the writing/narrative are stellar. Way more grounded than the first two which is something I prefer. You may not. The music is also really fantasticanf adds a lot to the atmosphere. I highly recommend it.

    hmm

    unsure about this claim

    the music is good though

    Kind of want to buy it now, although I might just hold off 'til it's cheaper

    Anyway feeling kind of shit about not contributing anything to MD since forever so I've got an article about "gamer privilege" in the works (not what you think, it's more to do with in-game actions that we consider to be second nature, skill walls and the casual/hardcore dichotomy and not people being arseholes)

    Take the time to finish it, Ed.

    I wanted to write that bit on the Mass Effect series, but since I decided I don't want to pay the monies for ME 3 yet, I kind of kicked around and did nothing for a while.

    Then over the last couple days I got to thinking about the things I really care about and now I've got a whole series of articles laid out in front of me about a bunch of different games.

    Making a list of games for the series right now, but the introductory article I cranked out in about 2 hours. Surely you've got 2 hours kickin' around?
