Don't they say if the infant wasn't baptized it goes to Limbo?

Not everyone who kills themselves does it because there is something they feel they did wrong. They can also do it because someone did something to them.

Hmm, so help me understand this concept. As long as you except Jesus as your lord and savior you can do what ever you want good or bad? If Jesus died for our sins than you can sin and still go to heaven right? So you can do every bad thing you can think of, and as long as you ask Jesus to forgive you on you deathbed you are sent to heaven?

The Geneforge- DO NOT READ IF YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW in Geneforge Series
Shaper

I finished as a rebel, so I could see how powerful I could get. I used every canister I could find. I didn't have real strength until I was most of the way through the game. Oh yeah, Agent with one creation. I was not able to use the Geneforge :( It would have been satisfying to be able too. And you don't get to see the creature behind the door (it's not a new creation anyways.) I found it somewhat anticlimactic. I did enjoy all those canisters though.

I did enjoy the game overall. It was very well done and had a pretty good story. I think I will play as a Shaper who is loyal. Maybe if I kill the rebels I can use the Geneforge (doubt it.). I liked it though, and it was worth the wait :)

If you don't have any creations walk around in combat mode. This prevents you from dying quickly and you can easily monitor you health. The purification plant is a relatively easy toxic zone. It is easy to shut down.

Is GF3 worth for the waiting after you play it? in Geneforge Series

I think it is. In G1 and G2 I pretty much led everyone on. More or less power played it until I had to pick a side. In this one you are forced to make side choosing decisions to advance. I'll know for sure when I find out about the geneforge and if I get to use it.

I'm at the point where I have used enough to have nasty thoughts, but I still have control. If I keep using them will I harm everyone before gaining information, or will it stay with thoughts of lashing out?

That is not spreading the good word of his faith. It is saying it is the only right faith. Didn't Jesus teach expectance?

I used to play a Shaper first, but they are a bit frail. Now I like Agents. They are midway for strength and good with spells. I like having one strong creation to take with me. I can't use them as meat shields.

:P What is the meaning of spam?

Spam is mostly a post that is unrelated to the topic, or a topic unrelated to the board, and probably posted just for personal reasons (eg getting post count up, insulting another person, getting topic locked)
Darn, this means that this post is also spam. Someone want to change my definition so it doesn't include this post?? :eek:
And no, I don't want a topic that has lasted two years to be locked just yet.

Gladly, your post is in response to the above post on what is spam, it is also informative so it's not spam. Spam is also saying something Incredibly useless like “I would like to eat an apple.” or “pleeze tel me teh wut day it is.” Sorry if that came of as rude :P

It's just the same as if I came up to you and said, "hey, smoking cigarettes will kill you." You are free to say "I don't believe you," and continue smoking cigarettes. If I come up to you and say, "accept Jesus and you'll get to Heaven," you could just as easily say, "no thanks, I don't believe you." If someone tries to convert you, and you don't want to be, this is how to react. Be polite in your refusal. Don't accuse them of trolling or of harassing you.
Most people who smoke would most likely not want you to tell them it's bad for them. They obviously want to smoke anyways. As for this whole love Jesus or go to hell. What does that say about every other religion? Christians are very well know throughout history for imposing their religion on others.

quote:
Christians who try to convert people are doing a brave thing. Why would I open my mouth and say something to someone who doesn't want to hear it, thinks my feelings are ridiculous, and will likely react with complete hatred and disgust? Why would anyone do that? Because we believe it's the right thing to do.
I don't think hatred is the issue for most people. I have had people lecture me until I walked away because they just wouldn't stop telling me how their faith is right and mine wrong. I would say as long as you are a good person and help people you would go to your idea of heaven. There are more paths than such a strict rigid system.

quote:
Just because someone mentions Jesus does not mean they ascribe to all the other "whacko religious-nut" stereotypes.
I think people take this attitude because it's all love and good times until someone disagrees. After that there tends to be an attitude of pity for not yet aware no-believers.

I've always liked the canisters. Easy power is nice; it's too bad they cause insanity.

I have been very comfortable with the new inventory. I tend to use the keyboard and just type the letter. I don't see why the ground would be mistaken for your pack, at a quick glace it is easy to see you don't have sticks, rocks, and skulls in your pack. I like being able to arrange things and carry so much more. The old way didn't seem to have a very good way of organizing the inventory. I always had to scroll through the menu looking for what I wanted. Now it's all right there in front of me.

I would very much like to see the next Avernum. It seems eventually that story will run out. They are allowed back on the surface now. After that maybe another Geneforge, or another game.

I haven't gotten very far into the game yet. I've torn myself away to post here and keep up with the community and my poor dog had to go to the vet.

My first impression is good. I like the improved graphics. I'm not thrilled about the PC choices. The same three with no new color options. I really liked the ideal of the Shaper in black, but either way is fine. The NPCs move very smoothly and nicely adding to the realism of the game. I like the story so far and am getting used to the way the game is now setup.

The Extra PCs you see in the screen shots are indeed tagalongs. I chose to leave them behind. I'm playing as an Agent with no creations at the moment. Over all it looks very nice :)

Not speaking specifically of Thuryl, just in general or me.

It seems the first one to take one's rightful place is annoying, but if they want it that bad it can be over looked (assuming it's a good day.) After a couple people do that same thing it starts to feel like one is being pushed around, or territory is being walked on. Feeling wronged by one person is frustrating; feeling wronged by many people will make anyone angry.

So you are saying there are no morals without religion? Morals are a concept of right and wrong, they are not specific to a God or Gods.
