Find a mod to skip the starting temple in 2. Seriously, it's terrible.

Here's one I made a while back for the Steam thread. From the starting area, just run past the guy to your south into the village and you're good to go!

To install, unzip into the data\maps\ directory in your Fallout 2 folder. If you have the unofficial patch installed, make a backup of ARTEMPLE.CFG and ARTEMPLE.MAP in that folder and put these in there instead.

Here's the main GNR Enhanced download you'll need to plug into it as well.

Decided to install Mass Effect 2 on a whim this weekend and found out someone actually cracked how to fix the FOV without breaking all the cutscenes! Guide here. It covers all 3 games, I've only tested the second one though.

Do the Mother games need to be played in order? Thinking of playing Earthbound but don't want to miss out on any important story bits.

Skip Mother 1 but play Earthbound before Mother 3.

Thanks!

Any tips or information for Civilization V? This is my first time playing any of the 4X games and it's a bit overwhelming.

Unless you have a ridiculously expensive PC, turn off Terrain Shadows in the options menu. I'm not sure exactly why it's so intensive, but I have a 560ti and can happily run the game at 1080p, 60fps with 4x MSAA and everything on High except for that.

To echo what others have said, just cheat. The combat in Planescape is horrific and best skipped at all costs.

To echo this, having played through the game once with no cheating and again most of the way with STR and DEX maxed from the start, I enjoyed the second playthrough so much more. The core of the game is in the story, so you won't miss anything enjoyable as long as you leave all the other stats alone.

Any tips for Dino Crisis please? I heard it's a bit different from the RE games mechanically
