Thank you!  I see some things that I would like to edit now, but doesn't that always happen when you write something?  (roll)  Improvements coming soon...

I just watched the extended edition of The Unexpected Journey.  I don't know if it's because it wasn't as rushed or because I was so turned off by the HFR/3D of my first experience, but I liked it much better.  Perhaps the extended version of The Desolation of Smaug will be a little better, too.

Thank you! In was motivated by a desire to play a certain quest featuring a Nordic heroine that could not navigate all of the rooms her world!

Hopefully, the "rumpus" in my last post was clear, even if this isn't the rumpus room. :-D  I'm sure that PJ's creative energy is not tied to his weight and heart health.

Since posting this, I've been going on a blog-bing trying to nurse my frustration.  Part of me wants to agree with miguel.  How bad is it really?  We get to go back to Middle Earth one more time.  Not a bad thing.  Then part of me doesn't understand how these two movies could be so off track.

I've been listening to the LOTR soundtrack, and I just can't reconcile how you can go from the epic feel of the haunting music and lyrics of "In Dreams" to the non-stop CGI silliness of the Hobbit films.  If you recall, "In Dreams" even pays homage to The Hobbit. "When the seas and mountains fall / And we come, to end of days / In the dark I hear a call / Calling me there, / I will go there / And back again"

Then it hit me...  The real change.  It's Nerd Jackson vs. Hipster Jackson!   Was the original trilogy fueled by Cheetos and Mountain Dew?  Was it!?!



(Okay... so I feel mean for saying it... honestly, I'm happy for his heart.  (nod)

In all it was a good day. All of my children are getting ready for bed, filled with cookies, cakes, and too much candy. My wife gave me a lovely gift, but I don't know what to do with it. It's too cold outside to plant this tree...  Pears aren't even in season. The partridge was nice, but it was barely a snack. Maybe she'll have something for me tomorrow? Doves were on my list.

LOL, Kris! I thought you celebrated each day by mocking others. :-) This must be your special, reserved Christmas mockery. 

My day is just beginning. I hope that you have enjoyed your holiday.

Count me in. I have a new phone, and I can easily see this replacing my laptop for my early morning news and forums browsing over coffee.   I'm using the full site, not the "mobile" site.

The only thought that keeps me happy is to think of these movies as Hobbit-inspired prequels to Peter Jackson's LOTR.

I have played the Penumbra demo on both Windows and Linux. Is that it?

Andail,  This game is amazing!  I'll be looking forward to the full release.

I took some time today to distill the information discovered while working on Radiant's walkable area "bug" (posted to this forum last month: original thread) into a WIKI page.  Although it could still use some editing, hopefully this page will help designers debug path-finding problems in the future.
