HA! I whipe my feet with your supercomputer!

:shock:

Aha :D Thank you for that ;)

Something I've been wondering for a while: where was it said that Troika lost the licencing match to Bethesda? Those screenshots look pretty, though :)

On the cue, things that need a lot of clicking: - The whole left-click-hold thing. Right click to change your cursor. Left-click and hold to select the thing you wanted to do. Release mouse button. Not the most ergonomic thing devised. And no, rilatin is not on my diet. - FO1: the steal from...

Yes, he talked about Call of Cthulhu too. Awsome new spiffing information there :D

On RPGdot.
