Sigh ... my answer to Ringworld was that "you start suspecting all aliens of wanting to start a war with earth, even legal aliens."
But Tawm beat me to the punch.
So ... you start believing that all bards are rogues. And all rogues are bards. And all rogues can sing, and all bards can steal.

WWE No Mercy and inject ourselves into the game; and write storylines on our fictional WWE website)

(Not insulted at all. I know Terry Pratchett, who wrote the famous Discworld novels, used to play D&D
a lot.

In fact, at that time (early 80s), a lot of fantasy novels came out inspired by D&D, or seeking to capitalise on the new "fantasy craze". Some of them were good, and quite a few were bad. Terry's first two Discworld books were making fun of the bad ones)

Is that even possible?

I have it on PC (running through DVDs), but when I tried to get it on GoG (because doing so would mean that I wouldn't need DVDs), the download didn't work -- I mean, the game told me that the installation didn't work correctly. (It didn't say why).
