Maybe Wise man was right about newbies....

What's the problem? Thralni wasn't an Avernite, I know, but I happen to like Avernum more than the Empire, and I don't know how to call a citizen of the Empire. "Empireman", "Empite"?

EDIT: I have no clue as of why Alo doesn't have a custom title. I do know that he keeps changing his username all the time as a protest ffor not getting a custom title. By the way, you don't get a custom title only for having more than 10000 posts. You must have earned it. again a reason for me not to understand why he doesn't have a custom title.

Blademaster is the cutom title for moderators, I think. Or admins. I don't know for sure. "Your postlines" is the real title, which isn't a custom title, but a preset title, like "veteran", "erudite" etc.

Custom titles override all regular titles. That includes Blademaster. My title here is Blademaster.

Custom titles show up in profiles. My title in my profile is Blademaster.

—Alorael, who deeply thanks Aran for the gesture. It's not triadic or hierarchical, but it's a title. On the other hand, scientific integrity is a little lacking now.

It's especially annoying when you are trying to navigate through pools of lava or similar things. In A2 (where I had the same problem), the Forid test (the one with the stone block) was hell.

I didn't know you could avoid it by using the keyboard, though... I have to try that.

With Cav gone, I think Spiderweb really needs more girls wielding sharp cutting implements. So I guess this is good.

"Stagnate" need not imply a change. I'd take it as "The GF series should stop being stagnant".

...
Geneforge : -Find a boat, escape the island and, if possible, do something for or against Trajkov.

Geneforge 2 : Remote valley with 5 factions. Decide who you will help.

Geneforge 3 : War between Creations and Shapers. Again, you have to decide who you should help... But the overall plot is in my opinion quite different from Geneforge 2.

Although I'll admit that there is always a Creation/shaper conflict, but that's part of the Geneforge world, isn't it?

---

If you look at the big picture, instead of minor details like character and city names, plot of Geneforge 1/2/3 looks like this:

You are a shaper apprentice whose boat/teacher/school was destroyed, leaving you trapped on an island/valley/island chain, where you are greatly surprized to encounter rogue creations, the canisters and intelligent serviles. You have to chose which faction to join and under guidance of that faction's leader learn about Geneforge and have to decide whether to destroy it or help complete / use it. You have an option to leave early, but that will give you the "world is destroyed by massive war" ending.

So while I agree that each of the Exile games had an original plot, as did Nethergate and Geneforge, I don't think Jeff had written a new plot since Geneforge 1. And from what I've heard of A4 (no spoilers please) it's just a repeat of A3, similar to how Gf 3 is a repeat of Gf2, is a repeat of Gf 1.

Ah, you know what I mean. I hope. unless your implants need to be updated...
