Avernum 4 and Geneforge 4 didn't come out in the same year, unless you are talking about the PC version of the former and the Mac version of the latter. Regardless. And it's "Subterra". But most egregiously, you've left off Blades entirely. Thank goodness you are taking a rest from making these. -------------------- Slarty vs. Desk • Desk vs. Slarty • Timeline of Ermarian • G4 Strategy Central Posts: 3560 | Registered: Wednesday, November 7 2001 08:00 |

You also left out Ocean Bound, Homeland, and Lost Souls. :P -------------------- Gamble with Gaea, and she eats your dice. I hate undead. I really, really, really, really hate undead. With a passion. Posts: 4130 | Registered: Friday, March 26 2004 08:00 |

Homeland? I looked at Spidweb's list of games and I didn't find Homeland. Did they get rid of it or did they not make it at all? -------------------- WWJD? Posts: 1384 | Registered: Tuesday, February 6 2007 08:00 |

Spiderweb didn't make Homeland. They didn't make Subterra, Ocean Bound, Lost Souls, and that other one either. Jeff just distributed them. -------------------- You acquire an item: Radio Free Foil Posts: 1169 | Registered: Monday, September 23 2002 07:00 |

Why in the world did 5 people say A2 could have been improved? :confused: -------------------- "It's sort of like Star Wars.

I got bored with A2 after teleporting into the Tower of Magi. I've played Avernum 1 and 3 though. -------------------- WWJD? Posts: 1384 | Registered: Tuesday, February 6 2007 08:00 |

Eh, Geneforge 1. Worth the title just because it had a usable Geneforge. And the Unused Geneforge-Destroyed Geneforge-Obeyer ending fit Death perfectly. -------------------- May the fires of Undeath burn in your soul, and consume it. Posts: 1636 | Registered: Wednesday, January 5 2005 08:00 |

Every Spiderweb game could have been improved. A4 is the one that needs it the most, though. Well, that and the non-Subterra third-party games, but they're mostly lost causes. Lost Souls at least had potential. —Alorael, who doesn't think Blades even belongs in polls like this. Scenario editors and playing others' scenarios is too different from one man's game efforts. (By that logic Subterra shouldn't be there either, but you can't have everything.) Posts: 14579 | Registered: Saturday, December 1 2001 08:00 |

Blades of Exile is by far the best SpiderWeb Game ever. There are a ton of good scenarios for it. Posts: 32 | Registered: Tuesday, February 13 2007 08:00 |

It just hasn't been around as long, and I'd imagine it's harder to design for, so there aren't as many scenarios for it.

I think you meant "meant" there. —Alorael, who means well. He doesn't mean to be mean, but you lose meaning when you demean a language. Posts: 14579 | Registered: Saturday, December 1 2001 08:00 |

That said, I couldn't think of anything to improve in the latter, but plenty in the former... P.S.

Edit -and that post was to avoid any possible flame war(one where I said I made a typo). quote:How nice. You are very nice. :P Well anyway, Blades really is one of the best and I should have added that. Besides, in some way it isn't a "game" because it is made up of scenarios. But that is just my opinion. [ Tuesday, March 20, 2007 06:30: Message edited by: Infernal Flamming Muffin ] -------------------- I can transform into almost anything, though not sanity.
