		<description>Hey, I'm slow and I just now realized something. &lt;a href="http://arstechnica.com/articles/culture/talking-with-rhianna-pratchett-writer-and-co-story-designer-of-overlord.ars?bub" rel="nofollow"&gt;This interview on Ars Technica&lt;/a&gt; is with Rhianna Pratchett, who wrote the dialogue for the Overlord game.

Although they don't mention the connection &#8212; which is very cool, to acknowledge artists for their own work instead of via their connection to someone else &#8212; she's Terry Pratchett's daughter. And the game has a very Discworld-like sense of humor, which probably helps explain why I'd assumed it was a British game. I like seeing more artists with that same sensibility and more importantly, who are able to carry it off.</description>

		<description>Why can't the overlord jump? You would think "the overlord" would be able to navigate over a fallen log, or a small fence. Still the demo is a lot of fun.</description>

		<description>Did you mean "dike?" Because there's no such thing as a clever dyke.

And I never said the Dutch can't be clever (out loud, anyway), I just said that whenever you see something that makes a point of being clever, it's usually British.</description>

		<description>I take offense at your implication that the British are more clever than the Dutch. Which country has legal hash bars? Of COURSE their games would be cool!

OK, maybe not, but they can build awesomely clever dykes.</description>
