When we get more abuse from a single IP address than we do legitimate traffic, we really have no choice but to block it. If you don't think you did anything wrong and don't understand why your IP was banned.Īre you using a proxy server or running a browser add-on for "privacy", "being anonymous", or "changing your region" or to view country-specific content, such as Tor or Zenmate? Unfortunately, so do spammers and hackers. IP bans will be reconsidered on a case-by-case basis if you were running a bot and did not understand the consequences, but typically not for spamming, hacking, or other abuse. If you are responsible for one of the above issues. Having an excessive number of banned accounts in a very short timeframe.Running a web bot/spider that downloaded a very large number of pages - more than could possibly justified as "personal use".Automated spam (advertising) or intrustion attempts (hacking).Overall it was playable but in a fire and forget kind of way.Your current IP address has been blocked due to bad behavior, which generally means one of the following:

And it was too short, around 10-15 hours. It was too linear and the locations too small and confined. It was also too easy on all but the hardest difficulty levels. But RPG players are used to repetitive combat so they never took much notice.Ĭharacter development also sucked as did the lack of inventory. People are too forgiving in this respect, if you're making half a fighting game and half an RPG and the former is one of the worst examples of its type it can't be a great game overall.

It was another game shoehorned into a Bio RPG, this time a third person fighting game. On the other hand, the combat sucked the same way ME's did. Some parts had rather nice graphical design, and a few of the characters were fun to have around. The game had nice lore and an interesting if predictable storyline. Of course the combat in KOTOR wasn't much good either because there were too few companions and it was too easy. To those who say it has better combat than KOTOR - keep in mind that KOTOR is a turn based D20 so combat can't be as "interactive" as JE. But overall still a good game, considering that Bio's worst games are still better than the best games of other companies. In some ways it was much much more open and understanding. The culture was / is really alien to modern day western culture in many ways. In ancient chinese culture being soulmates and being joined to produce next generation for the bloodline was not synonumus. So in conclusion, I would say it was a nice step in the right direction but as it wasn't supported by a pre-existing fan base like kotor was so it was forgotten. The Warpath wasn't as polished as it could have been too. The emphasis on meele was a nice change in good direction compared to Kotor but at the cost of cutting out the other 2 paths(Sneak and Diplomacy) completely out of the game. Some of the time it felt as if the devs opened up the wiki on ancient Chinese myths and just copy pasted the ones that took their fancy. Despite the nice plot turns,the whole thing was too Hollywoodised. What was so bad about it?Īlso, two of your companions were bi, so that was nice. The combat was acceptable, the setting was fairly interesting and unique, and the dialogue did not require you to behave like a moron. I have never felt that way about the racism, insulting and needless aggression that was "Renegade" in Mass Effect, and definitely not the Dark Side in KotOR. I remember being genuinely impressed when I played Jade Empire and saw a dialogue option which was both clearly Closed Fist and clearly a moral decision to make. No one in their right mind would consider Jade Empire one of BioWare's best. OK, forget your wacky views on politics, now I know you are absolute bat **** crazy. And you could score a threesome I don't mean that in a horndog way, it's a positive decision to model relationships that exist outside of our western bourgeois binary-sexuality-serial-monogamy bull****.

You could actually make Closed Fist choices that were kind of good, and Open Palm choices that were kind of evil.

I felt pretty much the same about Jade Empire, but I'm very glad I gave Bio a second chance because I enjoyed ME1, and absolutely love ME2.Yeah, except Jade Empire is the closest thing to a "good game" that Bioware ever came.
