After finishing that one I think I'm going to give the Risen games a go as well.

Nice decision, dear Scatty!!

Believe me, You will be not disappointed.

Risen is user friendly, calm and pretty nice game, all in spirit of Gothic.

You can count on my help.

I will start Knights of the Old Republic after Risen.

Just one advise for new gamers: (Not spoiling).

- Mates, during yr adventures you will meet 3-4 Skeletons in old castles. Nice. Their leader is so named Undead Lord. Not true. It is vulnerable too.
With about 200 Hit Points, Strength 25-30, good weapon Skullspliter you may bravely attack it. 5-7 good hits and voilaaaa - its dead.

- Make difference between black wolf and wolf. First is much more dangerous.

Just finished the game yesterday with a level 36 Dark Side Sentinel/Assassin, but I've been thorough with every quest and location in the game, and TSLRCM patch-mod does add quite a bit of additional content too.
Still can't get enough of it yet, time for a second Light Side playthrough


Also I've read that if you play KotOR II TSL through 2 times (1 on Dark Side, 1 on Light Side), and start another new game a third time, there's some different easter-egg dialogue from many in-game characters.

Whops. I am forgetting to mention certain details. Maybe it is the rush or the fact that I am getting older...

Well, it looks like you are really becoming polyglot, my friend... You will end up having many tongues for that wonderful skill...

Just kidding...

Language / Tongue Skills

I am also fluently understanding Portuguese (and partly the Spanish and Italian languages merely by certain idiomatic similarities; ciao and tchau have the same pronunciation!) besides reasonably understanding the English for being the universal Language.

I find it good and useful to mention alternative and indie games to diversify than just discussing more popular games. So, you and twillight continue on this course!

Amigo mio,
no, no i am not polyglot, i try to be kind and polite only.

You will agree with me that instead of banal HI or HELLO is much better for well respected Scatty the German to hear Guten Tag liebe Scatty, for SS the Russian - Здравствуй, дружок , Capo the Italian - Benvenuto, amichi etc.

There are plenty of real killings all the day in this world, let here follow the hippy slogan Make love, not war..
Pls, these are my personal ideas and not a base for any battle dispute or conversations, y"know...

...
Would be you so kind to tell me where you find so nice emoticons, pls?
When i press [More] in the right, nothing happens..

No problems.

There are 02 ways to open Smilies List here in AB Forums:

01) The first would be what you mentioned, whose link suffers from old bugs not yet fixed on both the main site and AB Forums:

a) For you to “solve” this problem palliatively, you will need to logged out and now open this link in a browser tab or;

b) Open this link in (another) browser as long as the Abandonia cookie is not active.

02) You open the Forum FAQ in the part of Reading and Posting Messages; then open the link for Smilies:

A full list of the smilies and their character combinations used on this forum can be found here.

I prefer the first option, either subitem a or b.

There's also another easy way - use this link to access all smilies. You can bookmark it like me, for future use as well. The above link for Smilies doesn't work for me at least, for some reason. The one I linked should be bullet-proof though.
Forum Smilie Listing
Edit: you can also access that list anytime on main Abandonia page, under Services dropdown tab. So don't even need to bookmark it.



And yep, I can speak and understand those 3 languages.

Whoops! I knew there was the link on the main site, but I had forgotten to look it up on Services. I had searched on AB Network, but there was nothing there!

You have managed to solve the puzzle in an admirable way.

So, as a way to honor you, nothing better than images, because they are worth (more than) a thousand words...

Mr. Scott, Scotty from Scottland!

Whoops. I forgot again! Yeah, I am really getting old... Cough! Cough!

I thought Scatty only spoke English (Scott, Scotty from Scottland) since it would be quite possible for him to work at Scottland Yard alongside Miss Lulu_Jane Marple and Air-cule Parrot...

Aha! Mystery solved! Elementary my dear Watson!
