Not my thing, tbh. I'm not a huge fan of time bending/parallell timelines/dimension shifting, that kind of thing! But they finished it in the end, didn't they? Thought he got someone else to take it up when he died?

alas... those who are in your teens, hold on until your twenties... those in your twenties, your thirties... others, cling to life as you are able...It should be pretty fun though.
On his Blog he mentions he gets really insulted when people say that cuz he knew the guy who wrote wheel of time
Every time a team member comes on i keep thinking it'll be updated but they just leave without a word
Not to be too snarky, but I'd rather they be working on the mod and checking mod-related messages than checking the message board for the same question, over and over again. Just refresh the 1st page throughout the day. I'm impatient too, but you don't want to piss them off or they won't want to continue the mod. All that frustration can accumulate.
I've no desire to insult him, I'm just acknowledging that it's a possibility.
If I were them I wouldnt get pissed off by all the impatience I'd be flattered
I feel flattered
On the last news it's for tomorrow
Still it's uncertain, we have a pile of bugs that we prefer to correct for this release

I has a sad :-( Still, I suppose it means I'll actually get some sleep instead of pulling an all-nighter playing the mod
After lurking for quite a few days I can safely say I am more stoked for this mod than any actual big game release for quite a few years. Steam updated the day I found it
You see, you say that...
I'm no modder, but I ran a message-board RPG back in the days that had a few dozen regular members. When they wanted content updates, that would hound me like dogs. It was overwhelming, and those were 'friends' that had a personality in my mind, not strangers. It's not the same experience, but it's all I have to draw on. I could be wrong, but why risk bothering somebody creating something I really enjoy? I shouldn't have to defend what I said. I didn't cut the guy down or anything.
It's the last I'll mention it because if it really does bother them, they won't need little ol' me to speak for them.
I enjoy playing the Targaryeans (sp?) in the War of the Usurper. Being surrounded by enemies keeps things lively.
But when the new version comes out, I'll probably try the wildlings. Alternatively I might take a far north house like Umber or Mormont.
Had an interesting game as Mormonts before the patch. Interesting in the way my house developed, not in anything I did, as Bear Island is too poor and remote to make much difference. The Old Bear got sick and died at the very start of the War of the Usurper. Desperate for a bride, and finding no good ones, I decided to marry Jorah to his attractive, formidibile cousin. The two had six daughters, all at least trained fighters (two of them were Formidible). Had they been boys, they would have dominated tourneys and maybe wound up in the Kingsguard.
The slightly inbred son was Slow. I started to worry but he developed into a juggernaut of a knight, dominating tourneys from White Harbor to Sunspear. Every so often a peasent would show up saying he'd seen a dragon, and this Young Bear would pravely proclaim he wasn't afraid and gain a point of martial. He was up to 30 by the time he died. He served briefly as Regent for Robb Stark's son. His life's ambition was to fall in love, like his parents did, but sadly that was one quest this bear knight couldn't fullfill.
That was really cool, man. The real books aren't even always that compelling. Rock Paper Shotgun's roleplay-ish 'Wot I think' reviews are what got me into these games in the first place.
Personally, I don't mind the prospect of Daenarys being the last one standing, unless it becomes a "War of the Three Dragons" type of scenario to replace the "War of the Five Kings" (I Like the R+L=J theory) and also I hope that GRRM finishes the series himself, but of the worst happens, I doubt it will be the end. I thought I read it somewhere that he told all the major plot points to the directors of the tv series so at least it can live on that way.
You know what's weird? His kids were very smart. I forget who I married him to (probably a Frey). But his daughter had a stewardship rating over 20. I married her to a hedge knight who won one of my sad little tourneys on Bear Island so she would stay at court to be steward. She managed money for her dear old dad (stewardship rating 0, intrigue rating 1). She took his tourney winnings and invested in improving the island, building stone walls and an expanded keep, as well as investing in the economy. His younger son went to the citadel to become a maester. He wound up inheriting when the elder son died unexpectedly.
Had the patch not come out, I would have made an AAR out of it.
What's great about CKII, though, is that a story just as cool will pop with enough play-throughs. There aren't many gaming experiences quite like this one.
No luck, it is 9.30 AM in my country and I just woke up to check if the mod is released
