>>520965725>What is your favorite OST from a CRPG game?A Trader's Life - Fallout 1
>>520965725Tyranny has a fantastic OST.
>>520965725>What is your favorite OST from a CRPG game?Wasteland 3 is definitely a top 3.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=864PAoUSQechttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VrGNybFIz1chttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qo3gqI5etAwhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XReurK9akWEhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=calP8tsfnA8But Witcher 1 is also genuine art.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKv0rtgI7mwhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=axyxmzUHsPE
great edition
>>520965725Kingmaker has a great OST and I am tired of pretending it doesnt
>>520965725>forcing Sirin to tell you the story of how her mother died>forcing Sirin to tell you the story of how she accidentally aborted her little brother>tearing her only hope how being free from that helmet>feeding her to Neirat for no good reasonSirin~!
>>520965913Speaking of sex. Tyranny is very meek on the rape aspect. There is a lot of killing, slavery and oppression, but rape is only ever mentioned in passing. Granted, I haven't done the Chorus route. Maybe you get some rape there.
>>520965725>What is your favorite OST from a CRPG game?RT unironically, listen to some tracks a lot outside of game
>>520966510Hahaha this anon listens to vidya geam music.
>>520966510>listen to some tracks a lot outside of gameWhat do you tell people when they ask you what music you like, fellow sperg?
>>520966295who is irl imoen
>>520966624Taylor Swift and the Backstreet Boys
>>520966326W3 was definitely something special.ARE YOU WASHED.IN THE BLOOD.OF THE LAAAMB?!
>>520966437Rape outright isn't mentioned but it's heavily implied in a lot of places. Pretty sure even Verse talks about it nonchalantly. Personally don't mind its absence, anytime a game wants to "feature" it, it just devolves into grimderp.
>>520966624Electronic Opera/ChoirBut no one ever talks to me so I never have that problem
>>520966593>he is a grown man watching cartoons >cartoons made for children
>>520966437It's omitted to a laughable extent, especially when they have no issues portraying the other types of evil.One of the biggest reasons video game storytelling is juvenile compared to its peers.
>>520965725Find this comfy for some reason https://youtu.be/2bqVB1MCN2c?si=E40S9G8ZgShq0MmA
>>520966510DA:O and Witcher are probably my most listened to CRPG soundtracks. I haven't played RT yet. Maybe I have something to look forward to.>>520966624My friends also listen to game music and why would anyone other than them ever care what music I listen to?
>>520967082Great tune, but loses points for negative association with having to talk to those useless faggots.
>>520966903Anime is mainstream chud. vidya gaem music still gives people the 'ick
For me it's the song that plays when you pick your Mythic in act 3Can't be arsed to google the link, but you know which one I mean
Why are BG portraits so bad (not to mention there's like 3 of them). An artist couldn't have been that expensive.
>>520967402Wasn't it just the generic Mythic Power track?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uITaghKWMMM
>>520966326>No battle hymn of the republic
>>520967681There's too many tracks to choose from!
>>520967082I enjoy the vibes of talking to the gods in PoE 2 in general. Something about the artwork and scale really sparks my imagination.
>>520967643Yes.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJMZdln7JaAI like the first world track. Alien, weird, ominous. It also sets a fitting melancholic tone for the endgame when confronting Nyrissa, especially when you did her romance.
>>520967773Same. It’s really well done and the artwork is beautiful. Avowed had a similar style for its equivalent which I appreciate.

>>520968316Never, hopefullyAmerishart fantasy is horrible
>>520966326W3 had a a number of bangers, but I remember thinking the general soundtrack outside of that being pretty weak.
>>520968235Carlos!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o5Cm_WUasR4Best crpg OST coming through
>>520968015The settings in KM were really good. It shows the difference between well done settings, and a toddler throwing in 15 kinds of "lava world, ice world, oh this next world is REALLY crazy!!..." I can't put it into better words, but stepping into the First World was really neat in Kingmaker. Getting into the Worldwound and even the fucking Abyss, just felt underwhelming. I'm not exactly sure why, but I think it's partly Kingmaker not trying to bite off too much. You're a dude who's almost definitely never ventured anywhere nearly as weird as the First World, and it feels that way when you go there.

It's not fair what happened to Tyranny bros.
>>520965725https://youtu.be/PLWAO3ED5KILegend theme aka the human male fighter theme
>>520969161Paradox are evil. They are basically Kyros hoarding the IP. Such a fun unique setting abandoned forever.
>>520969207What does the male human fighter do with the extra levels?

>>520969536>human male fighter>human female paladin gfName a better combo
>>520969514lvl up Paladin and gestalt Cavalier. become the first ever human male 40 fighter+paladin+cavalier
>>520966857Yeah, rape is mentioned and Eb even has some banter where she says she would rape Barrick since Kyros' troops need some of their own medicine, but you never see anyone get raped or meet anyone claiming to have been raped. They deliberately left it out.>>520966994Yeah. I guess rape might be seen as too touchy a subject. A lot of people see rapists as worse than murderers. Funnily enough, there is some old Q&A thread I remember reading where someone was questioning why Sawyer included rape in New Vegas.
Are CRPGs an exclusively western genre?
>>520968905My favourite soundtrack from Tyranny is the one playing in Lethian's crossing.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFYSg6pLTyw

I wasnt expecting Concelhaut to be easy but this is a bit ridiculousIt was fine at first but suddenly he started spamming crushing hammer and stunlocking durance through minor avatar and then my party just kinda fizzeled outBecause I cant break through his 110 deflection or outlast his 90 second buffs unless I have my priestBut this cc move just doesnt stop, it seems last several hits
>>520966437rapefag you still owe
>>520971596oh anon, there’s tougher boss fights ahead. Concelhaut is just the training wheels
>>520970120I only really know one CRPG that sold well outside the western market and that was BG3, so probably yes?
Is this game any good?
>>520970120Only 1.5 crpgs are popular outside of the west so yes.
Between avenger, shapeshifter and f/d which is the best option for a melee druid in baldurs gate?
>>520973552Gameplay? No. Story? Yeah.
Monks unarmed feats should synergize with druids wildshape a bear swiping there claws is there version of a punch.
>>520974518The physiology won't make sense. A "bear" isn't able to punch you know.
>>520974518Monk plus druid is extremely effective in many crpgs.
Honestly, the final fight was a lot easier than getting in here. Only took me 2 attemptsIt might have taken 1 if I brought chaotic orb along for the first fightMy conclusions:Enemies that are not immune to petrify are a joke, dont even bother using any other spell against themGrazing cc spells like wonderous torment and adragan is perfectly fine, if you struggle to land them you wont be able to win without doing this anywayPriests are actually your best damage dealers, if you can land holy flame and holy fire its ggBarbarians mog fighters hard at everything except tanking, and that can be solved at buffsShield users are great at absorbing 100s of spells before you run your party in, but dont do anything elseMartial wizards are a joke, even with every buff known to man. Ciphers are only good boss killers on paper, good luck trying to build up focus in a hectic fight like this.I've been waiting the whole game to use recall agony, borrowed instict, and disintegrate all at onceBut all I ended up doing was giving Maneha pain block and paralysing one mook
>>520974518you can do that in Deadfire IIRC.
I unironically think that putting Ulfar on the game's cover ruined RT for me since I knew I would get my very own Spess Muhrine at some pointSame with YrikekThey should've put in Abelard and Pasqal instead, for a more standard Trader posse

GOT CRPG when?
>>520975345bears are related to pigs and humans are basically long pigs, so your observations are based in reality. well done.
>>520970120slavs love their crpgs, too
>>520974892Disintegrate can be great against some high armour enemies thanks to its raw damage. I find it feels more useful in the second game where they revamped the armour system to be more punishing. When doing my PotD run, it made some fights where armour penetration was an issue a lot more bearable.
>>520977821>>520978386Slavs are western
>>520977923Yeah it's genuinely good and the soundtrack is godlike.It's a cool take on a turn based tactical game where there's no cover and you're free and even encouraged to sacrifice lower class units like skitarii and servitors as long as the Techpriests live.
>>520974518druid multi class gets gaped mid waydon't do it It's very underpowered

>>520981854Sometimes the jannitoids do that inexplicably to random threads.
>>520978898
>>520974892Keep in mind though that some of your conclusions are highly dependent on how you actually build the character and equip them. Martial wizards absolutely wreck if you play them right, and of course lean into physical stats at the expense of int. Priests aren't going to be good damage dealers without might, and so on.
>>520982038I guess it doesn't matter since the posts are still archived but it's still pretty inconvenient for anyone who isn't aware
Bodahn skip: Pull all the darkspawn to the start of lothering. Group teleport at the doomsayer. Stealth all the way to the exit and leave. Bodahn will not be at your party camp. This is a handy way to reduce your xp by 254. Bodahn may or may not show up later in the game. Or, you should be able to recruit both oghren and shale, and then return to lothering (it doesn’t get removed from your map until after a main quest is completed), to gather up bodahn and whatever else you wanna do there. Clear the whole place, you don’t need to save anymore xp at that point.

>>520986269Redundant phrase, only humans refrain from multiclassing anyway.
>>520986403That's the point. An elf would just pick fighter/thief, while a human has to either dual class or pick a class that's sort of like a multiclass like stalker
>>520968898I wish we could get a more grounded pathfinder campaign like kingmaker again. wotr is too crazy and over the top. Its hard to get immersed in that kind of setting.I don't want to play as a super special chosen one with anime powers.

>>520973552It’s a really cool setting, I know nothing about the game
>>520987028Good bros don't look
You can’t stealth past the mobs to lord dace during the princes first task without tier 2 stealth. Since we’re level 3, the next best thing is to pull the entire thaig.! Dace can’t die, although his guards will. He will kill every enemy, there’s like 100 of them. Takes awhile.

>>520986693>I don't want to play as a super special chosen one with anime powers.But that's the best part of WOTR, if anything every CRPG needs a mythic path equivalent if only for the sake of feeling like there's some narrative branching.
>>520988018Who's the CIA guy of CRPGs?
>>520985984You get some shitty druid spells I guess. And you'll level faster (not that much faster since rangers level slower compared to fighters)
>>520987656I don't think Wendaug would mind bro she just got done telling me about how much she likes getting whipped and one of my dialogue options was to ask her how many lovers she's been withWhat IS it with Owlcat and having cuck options, like I thought it was a meme but jesus
>>520988093Narrative branching doesn't have to mean chosen snowflake anime powers
>>520987581then I have no idea lol. I guess for the ranger spells??? really not a lot to differentiate it from F/T
>>520988521Why even build a character at that pointEven Disco Elysium had schizo powers to contend withYour genre of CRPG is Pentiment and what else
Finally left the Wintersun area after dealing with the bear. All that's left is the stone tree and I remember that being pretty tough on Core so this will be likely annoying. As usual I will only do some minimal prepping unless I TPK a few times, preferring to buff in combat. Had to return to Drezen instead of resting because on Hard the corruption goes up extremely fast. Plus we took care of some crusade stuff.On the way back to Wintersun, some baphomet cultists stopped us, so it was a fine opportunity to try out a new lich spell, which was fun and looks pretty neat.
>>520987403>>>no cute dyke romance in bg2 except the wild mage bitch>Lameits actually the other beamdog companion the black vampire that can lez out with charname, you wouldn't want to do it though because its extremely half-assed and poorly written. if you want yuri in your Ceearpegee look at arue in wotr or the dlc goth chic in RT
>>520988395some retards think they can fix her because owlcat put in one or two lines that go "haha maybe wenduag isn't fully the monster she puts on!" and then it goes right back to wendu dickriding being le stronk and talking about how much she loves being in chaos hell.
>>520988941>Why even build a character at that pointKingmaker has character building so intense that the average normie looks at it and gets completely psyched out, quit pretending that Mythic paths are the only way to build characters
>>520989207It's not about the mythic powers, but what the mythic powers do for your protagonist's place in the narrative.The player can inherently perform much greater tasks in much greater quantities than any NPC can, it's only natural they be treated special. When you refuse to acknowledge to any degree the way the player executes their fantasy you get MMO-tier quest design.
Without tier 2 coercion, you have to fight imrek. Which means you’ll miss out on stealing from all the npcs during the origin, and at ostagar. It’s a pretty big gold and xp loss. If you play as a dwarf commoner, you will be able to steal. But you’ll miss out on the human racial bonus. And, overall this won’t even be an xp save. As the dwarf commoner origin gives more xp than the human origin. Using the ostagar map hole glitch, it’s probably alright to get tier 2 stealing before any points in coercion. Although this needs a bit more testing. We probably can just skip out on coercion all together, if we make wise choices, as we’re a cunning rogue, and all coercion does is give you 25 points into cunning. Theres not too many early game persuade options with a significant reward. Ideally, we want to rush tier 4 stealing at the very least. Postponing combat training for a point in coercion is probably the best option. By that point, we will have over 60 dialog cunning, which should be enough for all the early game persuade options. Of which, I haven’t categorized. I need to find a list of it. Redcliffe village, you’ll miss out on the sword, and recruiting Dwynne. You also cannot do the side quests in brecillian forest. Which may be problematic, as we want to gain access to donating elfroot asap, while maximizing our gold and xp gains during that phase.

>>520988941>Why even build a character at that pointwtf are you talking about? No chosen one powers doesn't mean taking away every single ability.and class feature.
>>520989743just build some shelters bro
>>520988943oh wow, my repurposed meatball was waiting for me here the whole time!
>>520989728You are just poisoned by marvel-tier modern narratives. You can absolutely build tension, have interesting and impactful decisions, and all that good stuff, in low stakes settings. In fact it can often feel cheap if creators lean on "THE WHOLE FREAKIN UNIVERSE IS AT STAKE"

>>520990843No
>>520991089Please?
>>520989728The narrative in Kingmaker felt substantially better as a first time player than that of WotR15 hours into Kingmaker, you've MAYBE built your first city5 minutes into WotR the ancient demon lord deskari destroys your city
>>520990476There's not a single low stakes setting in D&D-likes, where you can pelt force bullets at people in the lowest class of wizardry. You missed the point any way. Mythics are a vehicle for taking your power as a part of your protagonist's identity instead of what most games offer which is being the same old beatstick in different faction paint.I only see similar levels of individuality in colonist simulators, and those don't come written down besides the stories you imagine in your head.
>>520989743Corruption is a complete non-issue and I usually forget it even exists
>>520990843here u go
Audecan thaigs design is interesting. It seems the devs meant for you to not have access to tier 2 stealth. As the enemies lord dace will be killing don’t drop any loot. And the darkspawn lose aggro, because of the size of the map. Meaning you can return to collect their loot after you complete oghren. Imrek however, seems like you are suppose to kill him. As his bodyguard drops a rare helmet. And their loot table is pretty high value in general, you can easily get a couple gold off of them. Unless the run changes, we still cannot do oghren without map glitching in ostagar. Bringing Jory instead of lelianna to orzamar is better, lelianna won’t gain a full level anyways, which means all xp gains are worthless. Orzamar will have a lot of moments where your guys need to tank damage. Jory will have a higher armor rating. Fun fact is you can give Jory 2 tomes to unlock taunt, and he’s good enough to use for the rest of the game. Although shale will still be way better.
>>520990843
I only like high power level stuff like wotr when you've had to earn it.In bg you start off as a weak shitter struggling against kobolds and then after a long saga you're killing fire giants and dragons like its nothing. It takes long time to get there.wotr jumps straight into the whole world being at stake and you being the chosen one way too fast and it just feels cheap.Its a fun ride but not really my thing. I wish we had gotten another relatively "normal" campaign before they blew their load with mythic stuff.

>>520993945I don't mind the reading but I dislike huge amounts of lore. It just feels like I'm having to read a fake history book to know what's even going on and I don't like it. Rather see more put into companions or plot instead.

>>520996257They make really cool Gothic maps.

I recruited this guy and started bashing some scorpions with him. how do I manage follower health in fallout? I see he takes damage but I can't see his hitpoint total
>>520981854probably because someone kept posting nudes
>>520985984more focused package. if you're starting a new game in bgee, then stalkers are the best at the type of combat you're going to face in that game from game start. they can successfully stealth almost always from level 1 which is not something every class can do.
>>520990196Managed the Ancient Blighted Treant. Didn't bother repurposing him since I think we're pretty much done with Wintersun. But now that I think about it, there's that spooky guy that comes out of the tree... I think later though, as part of some quest. And now that I know repurposed thralls just stand around on the map waiting for you for eternity, I probably should have hit him with repurpose, he was very strong. I do have a regular blighted treant buddy here anyhow. The spectre's no problem at all once I hit him with a greater dispel. Some minus levels for anyone getting touched but that's no big deal, Ember's on it faster than Chiktikka Fastpaws. Here's Cam and a bunch of Daerans and an invisible nauseated raptor all taking snips at the ghoster.I do hope this is the last of him though. I recall you get a sum of XP only after the last version is destroyed, and I guess I lost count.
>>520999230>Spectre dies!>no XPgod damn it, I don't have another Greater Dispel. I think I beeline for an area exit and come back for the stone tree stuff. He's just way too tough with all the protections. Maybe I'll try and just see how it goes.
Replaying Kangmaker again and Thotavia is actually pretty useful. Always ignored her before because I'd usually play as a caster myself.

I bet there are some Chinese CRPGs, but I don't know what they use for TTRPGs. Many of the mechanics would probably be different.
Ran out of camping supplies for onceThere is no way I am beating this with low resources WHILE my main character is permanently confusedYeah my bad for not having 15 resolve game, if you let me buff outside of combat or stack bonuses this would not be a problem
>>520999886>canon partyNot sure if based or cringe
>>521001460>this far in>still blaming game mechanics1800comeonnow
>>521001460I hate these spider-illithid things
>>521001536>erm actually you are supposed to take a stat or change your build JUST for this fight mmkay?
>>521002403No sympathy for people who actually want more prebuffing
>>521001460>also I just don't want to take drugs or eat food ok?>I just don't want to
>>521002403So beat the fight if it's JUST for that fight, it's not mandatoryBut you can'tBecause you're blaming game mechanics for lack of skill or your own choices
>>520999770while waiting around to see if it appears again, I found the Heart of Stone. I don't think I've ever passed all the standing stone checks, or bothered to find this before. Something actually new in my wotr, neat!

>>521001460Protection Scroll, Scroll of Defense, Durance's Prayer that helps Will, I think there's a drug that gives immunity to confusion? >>521003158Just like in real life, all you have to do is have a rest and then it's like you never took them
>>521003595Yeah haha, there's no way I'd do that to female companions as a kid haha
now this is how you build a character
>>521003908This was already posted. If it's you, the same person, and you still haven't played, then you're mentally ill. If you saved anon's picture and are posting it to troll in some way, then you're mentally ill.Anyhow there was already good advice given about this build. Less dex and int, at least more per, but also probably more con and res. The worst part is the high dex and low per... Great you can swing wildly really fast while not hitting anything, and that high int will also be great for all those spells that aren't landing
>>521003057The weapon you get there is kind of interesting. I just don't think there's a way to actually make crossbows good outside of like giving them agile as a trickster through save scumming. They might have nerfed it anyway though. I think they did to that scythe that had a similar effect
>>521004223So long as you don't go below 10 you can usually make the stats work with items/resting/food no matter what. The dex and int are probably overkill though
>>521004332I respec'd Seelah as Divine Hunter with a level or couple levels in some kind of Rogue, and since I have her str as 10 or so, crossbows make sense so that's already her chosen weapon. Unfortunately I'm not taking her though and prefer to have one team that mostly doesn't change

Ian and I explored and tried to join the khans, but ian aggroed on garl and hit him with a crit fucking twice and knocked him down. Ian is a monster at these early levels, sadly I had to reload because we where heavily out numbered, but the khans kept aggroing when I tried to join for pulling my gun to kill the girls, so I decided to leave and come back later with more gear. we went to vault 15, dead end, wandered to junk town, killed some cannibal doctor and my lockpicking skill came in handy to get some free ammo and alcohol which I traded with this absolute stud for a deagle. I wasnt ready for the merchant to be so SEXO but I valiantly saved his life from an assassin, and now Im gonna help him by getting hard evidence on the guy that ordered the hit

Why wasn't seelah romanceable?
>>521011481(good) gets more time to simp for nyrisssa, evil can get the lich as an advisor (he just puppets dead vern). but for me its being neutral so you don't have to side with the aldori or that other faction and keep out of it
>>521011848because seelah is a really bland character even for an Iconic. I mean uhh to keep (you) down specifically from obtaining your digital nubian qween
>>521011848Black women don't do romance.
>>521011848Same reason Amiri wasn't
>>521012383NPC project says otherwise
Another oghren run complete. Got some huge xp saves this time. -0xp korcari -killed like 12 less darkspawn on ishal 1F -0xp lothering, we can skip recruiting bodahn until later -0xp orzammar. You can skip the doorman before jarviaOne problem is there are a lot of chests in the Carta hideout. But to open them, we need to use a tome on lelianna, who is already level 4. And lelianna isn’t a party member we will be using after jarvia, so the tome is almost totally wasted. If we don’t do this, we cannot chest reset the carta hideout. The gold bonus probably wouldn’t be much greater than 22g50s anyways, so I don’t think I’ll do this. I might test it out, just for fun. I did end up getting the level 5 oghren, although I had to map glitch ostagar. With all these xp saves, we’re getting very close to not even needing to do that. Which would give our warden 2 extra talent points from the joining. But, these talent points are really just quality of life improvements to the character, rogues like the least desperate, and will have plenty of points to spare to unlock its full potential.
>>521012383This is sadly real and true
>>521012664Huh wha
anything else coming with the PoE1 turn based mode?
>>521013517yeah, me
>>521013517Surely they'll reduce the number of combat encounters right?
>>521012983NPC project mod baldurs gate lets you romance a select few companions, including dynaheir
>>521013797You're delusional if you think they'll make significant game design changes like that.
Romances in crpgs are unrealistic in general, normally it takes years to convince a woman to want to be on a relationship and have sex with you not a couple of weeks.
>>521014480>normally it takes years to convince a woman to want to be on a relationship and have sex Lol
>>521014480No normally after a couple chances people just shit or get off the pot
>>521003649>Protection Scroll, Scroll of Defense, Durance's Prayer that helps Will, I think there's a drug that gives immunity to confusion?In this case it is scripted if you fail, no save involved. As I said in the post it was permanent, like actually. It happens if you fail the check.I beat the fight shortly after my post, but there really isn't a real counter to that confusion You can use prayer against bewilderment and the paladins supress ability but its a huge downside since the fight is tough enough as is, which the tentacles dealing 200+ damage per round of rocks if you get hit. So you want to focus on the buffs first and foremostIt's better to just leave and get the con or resolve necessary to avoid the debuff. I didn't know con would work, I happened upon it since the rest at the inn gives 2 con which pushed me over the invisible limit. I think this is one of the few encounters, aside from text events, where your options are hidden from you even if you play with the "show unfilled requirements" setting on.
>>521014480good one

Ciphers are underrated because people play them r*ngedFACT!

>>521019162What if I just shot one of the enemies once with a blunderbuss and spammed amplified wave or mental binding for the rest of the fight instead?
>>521018661They aren't underrated at all though? Everyone knows they're busted..
Cipher is just ranger but worse.
>>521019732Ranger is dogshit.It also fills a completely different role so why even compare them?
>>521019647I saw a tier list with them at number 8 out of 11
I've decided to take the bait and try unfair.Holy shit shield maze is miserable. No matter what you do a random high roll from the enemies send you packing to the previous save. Also the shield cultists require 17+ to hit from a full Bab martial with weapon focus.
>>521021114Also the DC's are ridiculously bloated, all of them. Bought 2 Heroism scrolls, put 2 points in UMD on Seelah and surprise surprise you can't use them at all, since she ends up with +6 and Heroism DC is 27 in unfair lmao.
>>520965725>What is your favorite OST from a CRPG game?Almost entire OST from ToEEhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bfHGJTzImBM&list=PLF9253D5BF9C5B312&index=2
>>521021114>unfair is... unfairI have never heard anything positive about the difficulty, only that it's reload bait. But have you looked up the strategies others used to get their unfair run going? It could be you are doing something wrong
>>521021416I really need to give TOEE a proper try at some point. It looks interesting.I just can never get into these games where you make a whole party yourself. I always end up staring at character creation for hours and not actually playing it.
>>521021806>I just can never get into these games where you make a whole party yourself. I always end up staring at character creation for hours and not actually playing it.I have to get into the right mindset for it, but its fun when you embrace the tismI got deep into stuff like Etrian Odyssey and the Might and Magic series once I did
>>521004223i agree with you until you decided to give your worthless opinion about stats. absolutely no reason for more con and res, mate. why do you like to hit like a wet noodle? it's pathetic. he's playing on normal. it's really easy on normal. get yourself a good tank and use tactics, mate. it's not hard.
>>521020154who are the top 3?
>>521021806>I always end up staring at character creation for hours and not actually playing it.Just go with whatever makes sense. That will be enough to beat the game if it's not your first cRPG. Minmaxing is not required there. The game balance is not built around perfectly tuned characters. Anyway, it's just not possible to minmax during your first playthrough without knowing everything in advance.
>>521010381I'm happy to see Fallout playpostingI haven't played it since I was a kid, someday I will again
>>521023625Its not really about minmaxing, its more not knowing what I feel like playing, I'm indecisive as fuck.I already have that problem with regular rpgs but when you add making an entire party it makes the problem even worse.
>>521011169This was fun for getting my neighbor mad at me but there's no lore, it was just setting traps and shit right?I would like some rogue specific crpg though, very much. Heists and skullduggery, playing sides and playing sides against each other, diplomacy and blackmail... I love all that shit, and it can be very tense without falling back on "the universe is in trouble, chosen one" anime/marvel shit.
>>521024836I'll do some more later when I play again. it took a couple of minutes to get familiar with the controls and quirks but I'm having a fun time so far, I made a perception/agility small gun build with 6 int, dumped a little bit of strength and charisma.
>>521014480I literally can't tell if this is bait, so 7/10If serious, haahaha oh anon..
>>521023321The list was, in order>priest>wizard>paladin>fighter>monk>barbarian>druid>chanter>cipher>ranger>rogueI was mistaken, they were number 9Can't say I agree with the list at all desu
>>521021114Yeah, I'm not sure the appeal of unfair. I have found a really good general kind of philosophy for Hard, basically for anyone comfortable with Core. Balancing challenge and satisfaction from your decisions is important, Unfair feels a bit like Legacy of Bhaal. Just for autists and not really 'fun' in the normal definition of the word, and your actual options are funneled into needing to do 'the correct thing' over and over.

Wtfdood jarvia is so hard at lvl 3. She kills alistair in like 2 hits even though he’s in full dlc items with 50% dodge. And this is on easy. At least I’ll have like 200 health potions on my real playthrough.
>>521025402Yeah I'm not a pillars expert or anything but even I can see that list is insane.No way paladin is top 3 material.
If I would learn to mod wotr I would make:>dice roll for statsOptions like: - auto-reroll for total under/over X- completely random with no re-roll- playing with some Xd6 drop the least, type rules- lock in stats before choosing class option>equipment randomizer (mostly main quest)- set up stationary skeletal merchant further into the worldwound somewhere- randomized locations of found loot, merchant loot>going into your outposts/bastions- like KM but each unique, because re-using the same town asset for every city in KM felt like shit>turning more Peasants/Commoners/Nobles/... into random people with some little bit to say- computers can literally handle this, and it adds life to the world, and only takes a basic adult literacy level to writeToo bad Owlcat doesn't have tools for content creation, I can't believe in 20XX studios don't see the EXTREME value in this shit but that's where we are, I can only imagine it's retard MBAs pushing their shit-covered fingers into the pie thinking they're adding anything of value.
/r/OnlyFangsbg3/ this is what some people want CRPGs to bethis is the price of extremely high engagementthe resources that could have gone to Act 4, Act 5 even.... They went instead to things that appeal to the chittering swarm
>>521026584no way is Paladin that high. Pallegina isn't even good tank like Eder or can't dish out damage as good as my 2h cipher can.

>>521025402On the topic of pillars classes, how is barbarian? I've always thought the central gimmick of AoE melee damage seemed a little like something that would only matter for fights with weak enemies due to how DR works
>>521028223In my long stretched out Pillars1 replay, I've thoroughly enjoyed my low might high int barb focused on interrupting and dual weapons and dex. Extremely fast and distracting, shouting. Once per encounter a couple full attacks on everyone and a higher-crit on everyone. I think I probably am wasting some of that super high dex with some kind of limit related to recovery time or something, like maybe heavier/higher interrupt weapons and heavier armor would yield the same but I don't math it out or anything, I just like my autist barb.

>>521028130He's probably the kind of person that's only here because he's banned there
>bg3 is the skyrim of crpgsOnly in the most myopic sense with some kind of blind measure of 'popular', not in staying power. This can only be shown in time, but there's pretty much no chance BG3 will have Skyrim's staying power, let alone living up to BG1&2's.It was a cash grab, meant to draw normies in, and show studios that CRPGs can be viable. Joyfully also, we've seen that cynical interpretations like Failguard and Avoid did not reach these same heights. >b-b-b-b-but what do you mean we just have to make a good gameI actually believe that 'the industry' actively despises writers and believes that this can be just streamlined away and replaced with bright lights and screenshake.
If you run to the exit during phase 1 of jarvia, when she goes stealth and summons the adds, they won’t aggro to you. But she will still run all the way back. You can lock her in the treasure room by closing the door while she’s inside. She will still open the door in stealth to try to go to the middle of the room. But she gets stuck in a loop where she immediately drops stealth. The adds are worth like 200 xp.
>normiesEvery time

>>521028616That makes sense. I think I have a tendency to overlook the value of interrupting
BG3 is wasted potential modding-wise. Larian gave the people tools to create custom campaigns and custom assets and what does the modding community do? add sims hair and some shitty recolour of vanilla armor for their dollies. no effort to make something like a after campaign story or even just some good mod to add new armor, weapons or even races.

>>521029843>hooks up with you a few weeks after the gruesome death of her husband
>>521029192Nvm you have to kill the adds to flag the quest as completed. Like I really don’t know how to save another 300xp. We’re already not killing anything except jarvia lol. But as long as you don’t consider the ostagar map glitch as cheating, which it really isn’t, skipping out on the joining should’ve been included, we get to save daveth and Jory and never consume the taint. But we still get the dreams for some gay reason. Jory and daveth say words when you remove them from your party, so that’s good evidence that you’re actually suppose to do this glitch during a lowest companion challenge run for min/maxing.

>>521030408That reminds me of a post I saw in /ck/, about roasted turnips. Well first I was drawn to the board by my cousin's friend Gorbor, who himself learned it from his nephew Franklin. He was linked to the place from our mutual friend (now dearly departed) Tilly, the so-called queen of carrots. Anyhow, Gorbor used to post in /mu/ but now he mostly sticks to /v/ despite myself and Tilly suggesting that it's mostly just pissing in a sea of piss. Well the post in question, that I saw, as I mentioned, was a delightful post on how to roast turnips with a slow-roasted garlic and onion sauce. I wouldn't have thought of it myself, but it makes perfect sense now. Well Tilly mostly posts on /tv/ now, but ... what was I saying

Ishal 1F is one of the coolest places in origins. It uses several mechanics. First you kite the elite darkspawn into the far room. Next, you stealth your rogue into the stairway, making sure to avoid everything, and lock the door behind you. Next, you move everyone who is not a rogue as close to the stair room as possible, and have them die. Wait for every enemy to patrol back. Then have your rogue clear the room of enemies. And now you can walk to your party and rez them. This saves an extra 100xp compared to the old way, where we killed the elite. It should work, I haven’t tested it yet. I’m tripping out in honnleath where I actually managed to trick like half the darkspawn into patrolling from their slope. But I can’t repeat this for some reason. They always seem to have a trigger, it’s designed to make a normal everyday joe face extra enemies by surprise. But we can trigger these events to bypass them using stealth and a group teleport by triggering a cutscene. Or in this case we can go into willhelms cellar, completely avoiding the elite and an extra couple darkspawn.
Sawyer refuses to put romance in his games because he doesn't get pussy irl.
>>521036782the people that need romances in games are the ones who actually can't get pussy. They chase romances in vidya because they're desperate for affection in real life
>>521036782I genuinely think that all the good games that Soiyer worked on were good in spite of his involvement for the most part. He’s one of those guys that CAN have a decent idea once in a while but he desperately needs a tard wrangler to put him in his place.

Alright, didnt really enjoy Steelblood as much as I hoped through the early levels (possibly due to how often he refused to roll higher than a 5 while attacking)1-3 Archer Slayer (vanilla or Deliverer)4-6 Kinetic Sharpshooter7-9 Keep on Steelin anyway0 Tiefling Quarterstaff Monk
I’ll definitely be bringing daveth instead of alistair. Dirty tricks is way better cc than any other spell and works on elites every time. Rogues are so good early game. Daveth, the warden and lelianna. All rogues. And Morrigan as the 4th. She’s not better than alistair, but she will benefit more from the xp, because she’s our main mage. Alistair is the trap bitch just in case we find a use for that skill one day. Everything will be so much easier with 3 rogues. But like as soon as we unlock forcefield and taunt, we only want damage. It also seems we can get a level 4 shale if we do honnleath before oghrin. Although shales levels don’t really seem necessary, im not actually sure how to build shale lol. Her crystals and attributes don’t seem to matter at all. I guess it’s best to prioritize mana regen and wisdom. As shale will spend 10 seconds outside of a forcefield, so if we can keep her buff going the entire time it’s a dps increase. The plans basically to use mind blast, and have shale tank the damage for like 6 seconds, until forcefield is off cooldown. But if shale is dying during this, the dodge crystals would be more useful. We won’t be training any heal spells, so I guess it just depends on who we’re facing. If we pull like 20 guys obviously shales gonna die, but those fights are pretty rare.

I'm doing itI'm downloading Swordflight
>>521034234Druid is missing some of the spells you want from divine caster but you can probably make do.
>>521034234Yeah it can heal well enough and gets the big spells quicker thanks to their weird exp growth. The main thing you're missing is the ability to turn Undead which is actually pretty good in IWD.
>>521036520This picture ruined pallegina for me. Those legs would feel nasty to touch.
>>521042791>What mythic path are you gonna go down?the only one I ever finished the game with was aeon, so for a second run everything is fair game. Probably demon or azata for a steelblood bloodrager but I'll play it by ear and see what feels right in the moment
>>521043785Nobody really thinks hard about monster girls and the eldritch horrors that would be inside their labia
just fought the cultist in the catcombs today and holy shit. is pillars rtwp combat dogshit. hope the turn based mode is seamless as in Wrath because micromanagment is godawful
>>521042380Cancelled because of the tariffs and economic trash. Trump hates Rogue trader and wants them to retvrn to making Fantasy kino again
>>521044454Skill issue, likely charging in with your face and/or not slowing time and/or not pausing like a tactical general assessing the battlefield
>>521044627Actually the problem is I'm a controller-chewing retard on console, dragging the entire games industry down with my shitty platform
>>521044538Finally the orange man does something right.
>>521044454It'll probably be like deadfires. Make of that what you will
>>521044875It's been a while since I did it in Deadfire. Obvious flaw of it not being something toggled in a game with so many trash mobs aside, I mostly remember just wondering if dexterity was overwhelmingly better than a lot of other stats.Apparently in deadfire it was literally just something two people threw together in their free time while doing post game support though, so maybe they'll put more effort in
>>521029571what actually kills the modding is the high production value. reused animations and AI voice lines or garbage fan voice acting means nothing fans create for the game will feel good. compare this to something like NWN2 where while the game isn't that technically impressive, but well made fan content feels exactly the same as professional content due to lower expectations.
>>521045124They did say they'll be testing it with the community and working on feedback so hopefully it won't feel as tacked on as deadfires. I didn't mind the deadfire TB anyway 2bh. It worked for me.
>>520966721Wife of one of the programmers.
why is every single bg game mandated to be ugly as sin
>>520975175It's normal for a trader to have a xenos pet so Yrlikek is fine.But the fucking spess marine is right up the front like he's the one running the show. Very out of place. The actual RT is way in the back
>>521046354Space wolves are known to "quest" or whatever aren't they? I don't think it makes sense as a particularly long term companion, but otherwise it's not that weird.I don't think it's unusual a rogue trader would be in the back during a fight either. That's not exactly supposed to be their role
>>521029602>it takes a couple of years for a woman to fall in love with youNiggerYou've been friendzonedLet it go
>>521044738Yeah that'd do it. I don't know how anyone can tolerate playing crpgs on console. rtwp or turn based.
>>520975175I didn't even notice that Yrliet was a space elf from the cover. Her ears are hardly visible. I thought she was meant to be some sort of assassin companion
Are all mythic paths viable for any class?
>>521046201Imoen kinda bad tho
>>521046709Maybe it's tolerable in something like BG3 with multiplayer or something, since that's just 2 characters each, but that still sounds horrible to me
>>521046797Yeah I know IRL Jaheira looks very russian
>>521046774Technically yes, but some are significantly better with certain classes. Notably the ones with a combined spellbook
>>521046709I like playing most crpgs on my console but maybe thats copeI do hate not being able to add in new portraits though
Mutation Warrior or Slayer if I want to put arrows in people
>>521047286I prefer mutation warrior since sneak attack has a lot of shortcomings and passive fighter bonuses don't
>>521047685good enough reasoning for me, time to get rootin tootin shootin

>>520979083no, these are awesome actually. way better than vanilla. thanks for the recommendation!
Started mask of the betrayer.Its already 100 times more interesting than the main campaign.
>>521051767I have a soft spot for the nwn2 campaign (for some of the npcs mostly) but you're not wrong, motb is a lot more interesting of a premise
Why do people pretend that Disco Elysium has good writing? (it doesn't)
>>521052914I think it does. It's funny, sad, insighful and fairly unusual for the genre. I had a lot of fun with it.
>>521052162Honestly the npcs were the worst part of the main campaign for me, at least the companions. Qara, Bishop and Neera were some of the most annoying companions I've ever seen. I thought the gith chick would be interesting but she just served to dump exposition.Khelgar was awesome though, I liked his quest to become a monk. Some of the others were alright like sand and elanee.
>>521053047Its funny and sad but its poorly written
>>521053142how so? what are some of the more glaring issues with the writing?
>>521053224its a mess its pretentious with long convoluted descriptions that slow the pace down and feel more like showing off than telling a story. The constant philosophical ramblings take over, and instead of adding depth, they make the narrative inaccessible and tedious. The protagonist’s internal monologues are repetitive and disconnected from the actual plot, and they don’t really add anything of value to the character. The tone shifts wildly between dark themes and absurd humor, making it hard to take anything seriously. The writing is more concerned with sounding intellectual than creating an engaging or emotionally resonant story
>>521052914It felt like a baby first political satire
>>521046756And the fact that she runs around in a trademark Aeldari ranger outfit didn't tip you off?
>>521051767Thats just an mmo
I just started Rogue Trader and I'm having fun. The turn based gameplay is enjoyable too.
>>521055953fun is a meaningless buzzword
>>521028223They are really good. The carnage damage isn't actually low and you are always fighting groups. Barbarians also have retaliates and some really, really powerful abilities like heart of fury, dragon leap, and frenzy.They will be taking a lot of damage and can be a liability if you are not careful, since they will be getting crit even if you stack their deflection due to it being low, but they are worth it.
>>520966903>cartoons made for children And some not....

He isn't hurt, he is just resting repeatedly around the 36 minute mark (and earlier). I have played the game before but I don't remember there being time gated content in it.
>>521060260There isn’t time gated content but a good chunk of the games quests will fail if you don’t finish them before act 2 ends.

>>521045153>Muh high production value drink bleach faggot. there is nothing wrong with reused animation, ai voice or fan voice.
>>521044627sorry but Rtwp is shit. >>521044875this looks way better than poe rtwp gameplay. TB will always be fun than rtwp
>>521067621>TB will always be fun than rtwpAgreed. RTWP is just a chaotic mess and considering how often you pause it, it may as well be turn based.
should sex be rtwp or turnbased
>>521069658Have sex and you can answer your own question
>>521019732That's not even remotely true in neither PoE1 or PoE2. Genuinely what did you mean by this?
>>521070263he's a mindbroken aragornrangerfag
Arcanum what's easy to play pure melee or magic ?also what are the dump stats
Favorite enemies to encounter and wipe out?Hags and skeletons for me
>>521070835I don't remember the dump stats but if you take a bow and switch to real time combat mode it turns into a machinegun for some reason. You can also do a similiar thing with magic by spamming the 1st necromancy spell (Harm IIRC).
>>521071314women
What would the ultimate female crpg romance be like? How to design someone that all woman would love and coom to?
>>521071771Astarion that's just slightly more masculine is the impression I get
>>521071771They already made it
>>521071771Isn't merzi already the ultimate femcle romance?
>>521071314Evil villains threatening the innocent whom I save for nothing in retur, after giving the villains a chance to repent
>>521071771Easy to do femcels aren't as hard to please
>>521070835Probably beauty was most useless stat
>>521071771There is no such thing that absolutely everyone loves. Go outside and talk to real people for once, retard
Pillars of eternity made me realize that buffing outside of encounter is a good mechanic
>bluff a demon into giving up his magical tomb>he runs away>halflings on ponies ride in and one shot him>heal the land and magically plant an entire forest over dispelled corruptionOk Azata is actually based
>>521077039How? I had the complete opposite experience. Going from PoE to Kingmaker with it's mountain of buffs to apply was miserable.
>>521077871Shit, tome not tomb
>>521077991NTA but prebuffing is weirdly satisfying to meJust a couple minutes of powering up to roll over a couple fights
>>521077991>buff once>clear all the encounter unless someone dispels you>buffs stays on even if the casterfag diesvs>buff every single encounter everytime>ops Durance died, better quicksave or pray to rng jesus that you win the fight.
>>521078679>buff every single encounter everytimeI fairly rarely buff in PoE because the spell slots are usually better spent on nuking, but if you always want to have buffs up I guess I get it.
>>521078894stop playing on easy than faggot. not having armor of faith or blessing was the difference between life and death in this game. rtwp and rounds-based buffs cannot work together >nukingas this anon said>>521069043 nuking may as well be shooting yourself in the foot beceause most enemies would swarm around your guys and fireball hurts you just as much as it hurts them
>>521078282If you can't explain why something is "satisfying" then you're probably just fucking stupid
>>521079301>stop playing on easy than faggotI have finished both games on PotD RTWP. Killing shit quicker has often been better than getting some extra stats in my experience.

>>521080304Big titty ebony romances and pillars combat but actually good
>>521071771First thing's first make sure he's handsome. On average both men and women are going to like a hot romancable character, aesthetics matter. Secondly the romance will not just be a side gig with 30-60 min of content it will heavily affect gameplay and be integrated into main plot C&C.Make sure he's not a nice guy that simps for the MC and treats her like a princess, but instead is dominant in the way women actually desire, not the tradcuck delusion but the real thing, the real primal mindset:He has his own goals and will not bend to the female MC, she will not persuade him he will have things his way. He does not flirt with her just asserts that she will be his fuckmeat and he calls the shots, he can override any decision the MC makes if she romances him and if she resists he beats her bloody with near impossible strength DC checks. He fucks her whenever he wants, chokes are, BDSM dominates her keeping her bound and his giant cock savages her asshole, if she is an obedient whore in bed he lets her pussy have some cock. Any other companion or NPC she tries to flirt with is killed by him and she is made to eat the flesh of the butchered weakling after being beaten within an inch of her life. As the romance progresses the character takes over the majority of dialogue and the female MC is demoted to companion, much like in Varnhold's Lot. The MC is collared and mentally degraded to the point where all her stats are set to 1 if she is not near the dominator chad in battle. Her character name is replaced with "Meat" and she can't even plan her own build anymore, chad decides. She doesn't even get to fight the game's final boss, as a final sign of dominance, chad amputates her limbs and puts her on his back as a backpack, a portable anus and cunt that he uses after the victories he leads the party to. The ending describes the last thoughts of the MC's mind slipping replaced only by chad and how she pumped out offspring for them that also became dominators.
>>521080304Considering they're going back and patching PoE 1, I'm guessing more Pillars or at least more games in the setting.

>>521080304They’re planning something. Avowed was a success, they’re hopefully releasing this roadmap soon and that might show where their direction is. Ideally Avowed 2 and POE3 is what we get. Avowed 2 to fill the gap between Deadfire and POE3 and then a time skip with a new protag who isn’t the watcher.

>>521081529All of these are true.
>>521081141the only ones going for daeran are homosexuals or femcels who don't have real choices
>>521081746Whatever you say, cuck
>>521081795Untrue
Obsidian have been the bad guys since new vegas.
>>521080504Is there a femcel that would unironically be into this?
>>521081393>Avowed was a successHow much do you get paid to lie so openly on the internet?
Avowed is skyrim 2.0
>>521082439but people liked skyrim and talk about it
>>521082391They wouldn’t be creating extra content if it wasn’t a success, especially when it wasn’t planned. They’ve also said the numbers on game pass are very high. Seethe more and go back to your steam chart threads.
>>521082051How can you even jokingly be unsure? That's Marazhai-loving brainrot to a T
>>521082561Why not? It wouldn't be the first project microsoft threw money at for no real ROI
Instead of making 40k slop, Owlcat should make a Starfinder game. You even got Iomedae fags travelling around space in cathedral spaceships and crusading against aliens with chainswords
>>521082684Marazhai makes you seethe that much
>>521082439Does it have OStim support? No? Then it's not Skyrim.
>>521082561*laughs in tango*
>>521082684he's a weak jobber though. Basically meowth from team rocket
>>521082823No one actually cares about Starfinder.
>>521080504So hot, you made my panties wetI'd pay 200$ for a game like that
>>521083018They will once if someone makes a video game. Starfinder will be more popular too because you can fuck Alien babes and even space elves instead of warhammer """"platonic"""" romance lmao
>tfw no cosmere crpg
Also some mechanics of Rogue trader were inspired by starfinder. >someone in /vrpg/ ask him
>>521083281mass effect was a mistake
>>521080504Slightly reminds me of Poughkeepsie Tapes where the serial killer tortures and mutilates a girl after killing her boyfriend and she falls in love with him and becomes his loyal slave.

>>521084880Normies want to play RPGs, but get filtered by isometric games, so there's a huge market for games like this.

>>521085504daeran
>>521085504Amiri obviously.
>>521085504Arueshalae
>>521071771For broadest appeal, a tall, conventionally attractive white man. This is less important than some people think though, and it will also vary greatly by setting, since Garrus and Thane were cool and they're aliens. Fit but not overly muscular. Not overtly rich but rich enough that you live comfortably within reason and never have to argue money. Confident, makes his own decisions, does things without you, but asks your opinion and seems to give your words thought. Respects you and your opinions, but doesn't automatically follow you. Has to be his own man, but we're also a team making decisions together. This is the part that most books/games have trouble with. It's a thin line.An important part for women is that the romance be important in the game. We don't want to do a sidequest to unlock the romance scene and then continue playing normally. We want everything in the game to become us doing stuff together, instead of me doing things and my party members follow me. The game should constantly react to the relationship, and all decisions are made together instead of unilaterally. There should constantly be extra conversations with your romanced partner about the events of the game and how they make you feel. This falls under the umbrella of "reactivity" and this sort of thing should exist for all major character decisions and aspects, but romance in particular.As for sex, no one character will make everyone happy because humans are as varied as stars in the sky, but I think in general, "most" women want a man who is loyal, enjoys foreplay instead of jumping right to dicking every time, and likes variety. There should be several sex scenes and they should all be different themes.
>>521084240I thought the original bombed. I wonder if they will fix the reddit writing and and shitty roleplaying.
Outerworlds is legitimately a better game than new vegas, try playing base new vegas without mods and compare it to Outerworlds. The difference is insane.
>>521080504I enjoy these kinds of hentai plots but they are incredibly malebrained
>>521086208>I thought the original bombed.It sold over 5 million copies and they got Fortnite bucks for making it an Epic exclusive for the first year.
>>521085639Because it sold well and Microsoft thinks theres a fanbase for it now

>>521096142I'd love to adventure around with my bro Gig in my party. don't need a romance though lol
>>521095843Is it outright stated to be that way? She doesn't have an actual scene until the end of the game, but she has dialogue spread throughout that implies you're already sleeping together regularlyIt came across as something that happened in the background, ie shitting/eating/etc
>>521096762Shadowheart is CANONICALLY fucking from act 1 onShe’s only fucking you in act 3
>>521096029>Women are good for six.Virgin here. What did she mean by this?

>>521097345i know le bear memes, but the dialogue suggests otherwiseif you're about to chimp out as durge and wake her up, she'll assume you're waking her up because you're 'feeling frisky again and need her to fix it'if you chat with her in the field, she has a chance to mention how often you share bedrolls at night

It hurt killing Tunon since he's my favourite, but leaving him alive in a rebel run would break character for my PC.

>>521098807>Owlcat puts the game's longest dialogue cutscene ahead the test just to discourage people from savescumming it
>>521102067wdymwe have owlcat's dlc and bg3 update 8 to look forward to
>>521102067phantom brave 2 for me
>>521102067Avowed DLC coming bro
>>521101583Since bg3 showed him he could get away with frog sex you are getting bird sex in avowed 2 and you will like it.
>>521102658>>521101565No…. I need a break from Pallegina….
pallegina wasn't in avowed though
>>521102863That’s cause she’s dead like all godlike
>>521103059There's supposedly a few still around, but they're rare. I don't doubt for a minute that line was for players who picked one previously and here
this is a nice bard
>>521103598Well that’s mentioned in Avowed based on the plot from Deadfire. Pretty much every godlike has vanished minus the player character from Avowed and the one Eothas godlike you meet. Pallegina is likely ok though as she had her chime removed so her connection to Hylea is pretty much non existent now.
'gina just feels like bird valerie
>>521103981she kinda is, in pillars 1 you either make her more of an ass by following her orders which would fuck over a town, or tell her not to be an ass and to go against those orders by not giving the town a trade deal that fucks them over
>miss from concealement>have true seeing communal castNice game owlcat.
>>521104340Also isn't she like a desperate hobo at the start of Deadfire if you had her go against orders?
>>521104604There are ways to get concealment that goes past true seeing, but I don't doubt that's just something buggy. True seeing being fucked up is like one of the longest bugs they've had
What was his problem?
>>521104604some enemies have natural concealment that truesight doesn't affect. you need blindsight from the echolocation spell
>>521103059Of all the godlike we know of, she is the most likely to have survived
>>521106164It's comforting to know that there's at least some chance that the gay fish didn't make it
>>521102178>one was supposed to come out in "early 2025" and the other in DecemberIt's over
>>521103059But my Watcher...
>>521106164It is notable that her "growth" was indeed stopped so it's likely.
>>521106451There’s a note from him in Avowed. He’s alive.
>Rogue Trader season pass came out in 2023>originally promised Void Shadows in Q3 2024, Lex Imperialis in Q4 and a third DLC at a later date (now removed)
>>521106792I don't remember seeing anything like that. Where was it?
Men who romance Cassia, Merrill and Aerie are pedo creeps who want to groom an inexperienced girl.

>>521107860>Tekehu was there in UkaizoSo that's canon now?
>>521109173wouldn't that mean the watcher sided with the H*ana?
>>521109425Or the VTC. He only leaves if you go RDC
>>521109425No, not really. You can bring him there, Though thinking about it, it doesn't mean much since it just shows that he was indeed recruited and was there during the breaking of the wheel. Not that he fully participated and was there to "speak" to Eothas.
>>521108457

>>521107878Fucking ORKS
>class needs four fucking stats
>>521111445it doesn't *need* those stats. you can make your shifter a dex fighter if you want and con should never go above 14 in chargen unless your making a barb. dunno what shifter uses wisdom for since its not a caster
>>521111590They get a WIS bonus to AC when naked like monks, and it determines how many times they can use class features between rests.
>>521109594>VTCbaste
>>521111445>humanErm
>>521096142I keep her to myself
>>521111445Pick dex or strength. Only take one to 14 and pump up the other one. Only get 14 or 16 in wisdom and never think about it again. That's all there is to it. Personally I don't think higher dex for shifter's edge is worth it. It was buggy when I playedYou're not a dodge tank that needs to go crazy in both dex and wisdom unless maybe you picked feyform I never increase con by more than 12 personally. What you get from belts and the fact that HP in pathfinder is a bloated mess usually means that's enough
>32 drAchieveable natty?
>>521111445>edgelord portraitMake sure to max your Cocksucking ability to fit your character anon
>>521112990this bastard dragon filtered me so hard. I don't recall another time when I actually gave up on a fight in a bideo game.
Finally forced myself to finish my last game. Time to jump into that role I was daydreaming about.
>>521113478He has low will and isnt immune to petrifyThat is how I assume you are meant to deal with him run in 1 character as bait, a 100+ in every defence fighter should be decentThen just spam your spells and pray they land100 will really isnt unachievable for a cipher or wizard to hit, even with accuracy so you can do it turn 1 to speakBut that dragons breath attack does just oneshot so you have to cc himI ASSUME
>>521114119What role will you being playing?
>>521114184All dragons require you to perform some kind of stun lock so you don't lose 5/6th of your party with some undodgeable AoE attack
dragon fights always suck in crpgs
>>521114360I just dont see how you can start your buff chainI cant really get off a spell before the spectres stun me
>>521112990eat food and take drugs
>>521114184But that guaranteed terrify + blind is just insufferableAn immunity to stun also means you can open with silent screamI assume the best opening is whispers of treachery because of its high accuracy and long effect, giving you time to buff yourself but how is it achieveable I wonder Distance maybe?
>>521114229finally gonna get further than Nashkel Mines in BG1
>>521115023neat, have fun. Bring the sad elf with you after you rescue him, he's the best
>>521114491In BG2 they always set them up so you can freely set up bullshit to trivialize them, but they're really just slightly harder wizard fights anyway
>>521115183I would rather turn difficulty down then use bullshit cheese tactics
>>521114561It took me many, many tries, usually it's positioning, setting up some people who take care of the adds that spawn, while the rest of the team focuses on keeping the dragon CC'd however possibleand it also just requires luck
>>521115285I agree, but at the same time I have no idea how the fuck they expect you to use the trap mechanic without it being bullshit cheese
>>521114491Inquisition did it right
>>521115406Well not setting, resting, setting, resting, setting, resting.. for one thing.I've never bothered with traps but I might if I ever play again, but the way I'd do it is scouting, then retreating when I see an enemy and laying a trap. More to soften them then obliterate them with just traps.
So the terrify lands no matter where you are but you can avoid the blind and wait it out and prebuff before the ghosts show upThe dragon isnt even touching Eder Maybe its playable
>>521115682If you just use a full rest's worth for a single enemy that will be enough anyway unless you're super underleveled.
>wastes her 19 CON body giving some shitstained farmer heirs>yet gives you nothing if she becomes your queenThis is a million times worse than Arueposting. This was written with actual NTR intent.

>power caps out at 25sad palpatine face
>>521116330BG2?Dragon Age Origins?Expeditions Vikings and Rome?WOTR with Arue's new ending?
Easy peasyIt honestly isnt that bad IF you spam the most OP spells in the game, what do you knowNo f*od or c*nsumables used either
>>521116471what is this? looks like Solasta but the character doesn't hurt my eyes.
>>521116471what game
>>521092418It's a crime you can't romance Ember for some reason, she is easily the most pleasant girl to be around in that game and would easily be a good wife.
>>521116471This UI is literally soulless.
>>521116471The slider only going to 25 wasn't enough of a hint?
>>521116646>she is easily the most pleasant girl to be around in that game and would easily be a good wife.Thats why you cant romance her.
>>521116646She's like a traumatized child. Stop preying on the vulnerable, you're no better than a pedo.
>>521116141>farmerchad got to breed that 19 con body whenever he wants while she has zero interest in letting (you) the king of your own country do the sameFarmers are too strong....

>>521115406what are you talking about? how is setting a trap such a foreign concept to you? you set a trap and kite the enemy into it and they get wrecked. how is that cheese? traps are only good for one, maybe two enemies if you're lucky. you only get a good AoE with a trap if it's a special bounty hunter trap being launched from fog of war. how is setting traps to kill things any worse than setting up your fighters with improved haste and letting them loose? it's not. in fact, imp haste is probably the most broken shit in the whole game. i personally love using traps. they're a fun mechanic. especially in conjunction with thief hit-and-run tactics.
>>521117064>mobile oriented UIdisgusting
You will never have irl kids with your crpg waifu
>>521116141Nobody likes Valerie why seethe over her
If there's one character I despise from Kingmaker it's fucking Oleg. I save his wife from getting gangbanged from bandits then I kill the Stag Lord and save his entire fucking livelihood. Then this faggot has the nerve to march into my barony and cry about taxes that he doesn't want to pay despite operating on MY land and wants to pay taxes to Restov instead. Fuck Oleg and fuck Jewmandi, wish there was a way to behead them both.
>>521116938>She's like a traumatized child. All the more reason my mythic character should marry her, nobody else can protect her like I can and even if someone objects or finds it morally dubious, none of them would be able to stop me.
>>521106739There is no indication when it was written. He could still be dead
>>521117064Between the cartoon illustrating what the choices are and the tooltip I feel like this game must think you're literally retarded for playing it.
>>521117436I dont even get that throne room event. He is a retard who pays his taxes twice, ok. But when you send troops there to establish dominance he gets mad? Why, he only needs to pay taxes once now?
>>521117436I would maybe disagree with you if it was ever actually clear how much the Aldori are supporting you, but it really just feels like it doesn't go further than not contesting your claim
>>521117436>I save his wife from getting gangbanged from banditsI would hate you too if you did that to my wife
>>521119040>if it was ever actually clear how much the Aldori are supporting youThey literally give you money amounting to nearly 1m gp (or maybe less I forgot) until they stop.
There is nothing wrong with playing a death godlikeFirst of all its skillful because you cant wear a helmetSecond its fits the premise very well as you are dealing with dead peoples souls all the timeThird of all it lots sick as hell with those hornsI rest my case
>>521116330Kibbers does her duty
I see people prestiging Linzi into EK, getting the full 10 EK levels and I don't really understand why, are the additional BAB and few additional combat feats worth it compared to the all the performances/performance upgrades from Bard ? Doesn't seem worth losing on that just to be able to pew pew a bit better with a crossbowI'm new to Pathfinder so sorry if the question seems retarded
>>521119309based arubro
>>521119684Just keep her as a bard and a skillmonkey.
>>521119684That's a really bizarre choice. I don't think it would be more useful than just going pure bard
>>521119418Yeah because you didnt let them scam you at the coronation
>>521119684Neoseeker builds are meme shit >just turn Harrim into a mystic theurge bro
>>521119908I saw it looking at the Neoseeker Kingmaker builds which are supposedly rather good, so I thought there'd be some reason I couldn't grasp behind the decision.
>>521117064This dude looks like the necro from troonguard
>>521120160I think there's a tendency to do weird shit just because the most effective thing is obvious. Also isn't one of the guy who makes builds just obsessed with stupid high HP at the expense of like anything useful? I remember scratching my head at a few of those when I stumbled upon them
>>521119684bard doesn't get much past a certain point

>>521104604from what I understand true seeing actually has a range around the character with true seeing. So if the target is too far away (such as with archers) your true seeing won't apply
>>521054350I'm not that into 40k to recognize such a detail. I only know it from Dawn of War. I don't think I've ever seen an eldar ranger before.
