Originally written by Papal Legate Pablo:

And Spidweb is, as a whole, full of intellectuals. They don't care as much about combat; they'd rather examine the main character's actions in light of recent events or compare the storyline to that of an ancient play.

Originally written by Student of Trinity:

Reading One Hundred Years of Solitude is like living as a goldfish. Everything's cute and bubbly, but somehow you start to feel trapped. Maybe it's the magic realism; could it be that if anything can happen, then really nothing can?

Originally written by Emperor Tullegolar:

So you believe that all the Avernums are fundamentally flawed in this way?

Really, they are supposed to be mostly killing things. I like killing things, and if I can get a great plot along the way, great. If you think they are so flawed in a element you deem so important, why do you play them?

Originally written by Emperor Tullegolar:

Thuryl: Am I offended at being called a Fascist? No. I am, however, offended by the fact that Hitler and Mussolini are the only examples of Fascist governments and that they are the ones everyone associates with the word. They both had massive shortcomings, and in the end, they were too weak and stupid to maintain control in Europe.

Disclaimer: I do not approve of the destruction of the Native American Empires or of the Holocaust. It disappoints me that those that carried out these acts do fit my description for the perfect government, but keep in mind that these governments all failed in the end and were replaced by a superior power. That is the way of the Tullegolite.

Fallout: Like I said before, the ending is always more satisfying when you can put a face to what your fighting against. It would not have been the same without Horrigan.

Violent Confrontation: Avernum 1, though you could take any path you wanted, was designed so that Hawthorne should have been the final confrontation. Even if you really are going to be anal and say the game doesn't end unless you escape to the surface: the final gauntlet seemed pretty violent to me.

But I'll ask again: why does coming up with an example matter? Do you really not know what I'm talking about and need an example to understand the concept of a "detailed villain"?
