New RPG from the makers of Encased: Saturn.

>A mysterious signal from space causes the AI of machines to rebel against their creators across the entire Solar System. Defend Earth from the threat and connect with the robots on Saturn's moons to stop the apocalypse. You only have 3 days to save the world.

>Explore the World of the Future
>The year is 2062, a new era in space exploration. ARKA from Russia, Huang-Di from China, and BUF from Britain have established research stations throughout the Solar System.

>The discovery of a new form of communication—ether threads—has enabled more efficient space exploration using robots and drones. From Earth, operators of the "Reflection" program remotely control machines in real time. Thanks to their work, research stations have been built on the major moons of Saturn, where international expeditions have been working for the past twenty years.

I really like the implications of Loremaster.
I wonder what kind of fun stuff you can up to with it. I'm just scratching the surface using it for Power Attack. Seems like it'd be great for getting Uncanny Dodge or some of the high tier fighter and weapon feats. TWF estocs was so fucking broken in KM, and I see that you can take a one level dip into LM to get one-handeds treated as Light, though the menus make it hard to tell exactky what weapons they're talking about.

I can't decide if it makes sense to add Frightening Abush to a Shatter Defenses build.
Conugon makes them Shaken > Hitting Shaken makes them Flat-Footed > Hitting Flat-Footed makes them Shaken, but I'll already be hitting them with Cornugon while they're Flat-Footed, so they'll already be getting Shaken again. I guess it lets me double up on my attempts to keep them Flat-Footed?
Probably better served picking up Double Slice, Critical Focus, or Improved Critical at this point but I dunno.
Thoughts?
>>
>>500008642
That's a little above my pay grade. I just find cute girl portraits and try to make them into characters using rudimentary RPG knowledge.
The Cornugon is a demon?
>>
>>500008642
I don't think it's worth it. You're already using four feats on it and there's so many other ways to trigger shatter defences. Even cornugon is already kind of a luxury pick and they basically do the same thing

Bloodseeker's fun as fuck, your early levels are carried by wolf summons (level 3 spell at level 1) and by level 10/11 your bite has some serious utility
Only shame is that you have no way to quicken your blood powers so your action utility is a mess, especially if you wanna quarry people, and that you can't use reach weapons since your bite is pure melee

Luke Scull may or may not be working on Dragon's Demand, at this point it's not confirmed. His Doom of Icewind Dale module is being held up by the music composer not delivering on time, I think.

is this IWD recreated in NWN1?

>>500039639
No, it's a Nwn module that continues the official campaign and will be part of his Blades of Netheril series of Nwn modules. Luke is one of the best Nwn module creators who made Siege of Shadow dale, Crimson Tides of Tethir and Tyrants of the Moonsea, his content is always top notch and lore accurate.

I've got a choice paralysis deciding which class do I pick for my first WotR.
Several times I was like "this looks cool", but then googled it and apparently it's meh or only good as some dip for other classes.
Also, how important is this thing considering I haven't played Pathfinder games before?
>>
>>500046960
The class difficulty ratings are nonsense.
>>
>>500046960
What mythic did you want to go with? That matters more for class than anything else
>>
>>500046960
Just pick whatever sounds most interesting or fun. If you don't like it or think another class fits more for your character, let him retrain at Hilor. I retrained my character once and I'm currently considering retraining again (Level 13).

Can't play this game without minimaxing shit. There are over 200 archetypes in this game and more than half of them are useless or detrimental to gameplay.

WOTR has ruined caster gameplay for me in other games. I love playing CRPGs with magic classes, but no other CRPG makes you feel as powerful and useful as WOTR does.
And usually in DnD games casters can't do anything until halfway through the game, but in WOTR you are incredibly strong and useful from the first level and. So it's incredibly frustrating that other games can't provide a similar experience.

If I do a total asshole Lich playthrough of WotR, to the point I tell companions to fuck off with their little personal issues that my bony ass couldn't care less for, do I miss on a whole lot of content? Like, do any main story sequences break from it?

Also, having finished my Demon > Legend "Everyone gets redeemed" playthrough, ngl kinda disappointed. Nocticula fucking ascends offscreen. Arueshalae's brief romance moment, while cute and climactic, was not really worth me picking an evil mythic path and then holding back from being TOO evil the whole way, and doing the inconditional support of Arueshalae's redemption and Ember's teachings while otherwise acting like a raging antihero wasn't really fitting. Honestly think I'd have had a better time as Angel or Azata for my first playthrough and just done Demon as a proper evil asshole run instead of the conflicted antihero thing I tried to go for.
>>
>>500078298
That's kinda the way it is in RT also. You gotta go whole hog into the alignment you choose. Sometimes my brain just resists doing that, especially with the companions, and I find myself following through with their content in a more conventional manner just out of instinct, but that doesn't always fit the tone. If you're evil, you just gotta tell Ember to fuck off. It's like ripping off a bandaid
>>
>>500046960
Maybe you already proceeded, but I might recommend running through that Midnight Isles roguelike shit a couple of times and try out different builds. It's an easier way of getting a handle on how the classes work than starting the main campaign over and over
>>
>>500080487
Yeah no once I do Lich I'm just straight up not gonna recruit Ember. I actually don't know if I can stand the idea of corrupting or saddening her. Besides, I don't even think recruiting Ember makes sense as an evil character. Probably just kill the crusaders on the way through the plaza because they're so retarded even an evil asshole would want to kill them out of spite, but then tell Ember to run along.
>>
>>500081417
Lich I can see that, but I think Demon is supposed to be more the mindless fucking and killing and bullying type, so might keep her around to torment her
>>
>>500081401
Well, I'm not on a high difficulty daring, except with respecs and manual level ups, so I hope I won't have to restart.
>>
>>500081772
Eh, at the point you meet Ember, you're a regular run-off-the-mill asshole. At that point anything goes, you can always get worse once you start unlocking a proper mythic path.

Depends. The rabbi is probably the most likeable in this game to be honest, even though he doesn't get much screentime. It's the others who are the pain. I had to help him out in chapter 3. No open jewbashing on player's volition. I think you can make a couple misogynistic comments to fuel your pride dialog options on the other hand lmao. Also you can greet a muslim with pic related.

eh I get it, she's that lackey underling that wants to make it big and looking out for number one. I meant more like during the tavern event for example the chaotic thing to do is just "well I can't refute the right to kill people that annoy you!", plus, I keep daeran around because he's fun too. and It's funny when he and wendu diverge on things, line him absolutely disliking chaos-hell and saying it was too degenerate even for a degenerate like him. wenduag on the other hand thinks its great fun.

It's kinda like with Yrliet, right? Anyone can be compassionate up front, but can you forgive someone after they have betrayed you personally? If you can, oftentimes a redemptive narrative arc consists of someone being forgiven for their crimes and that experience changing them and making them try to be a better person

Yrliet’s betrayal is at least her making a mistake and being a desperate retard after you’ve gotten to know her. There’s justification for forgiving her.
Wendu is just an open piece of shit from the first time you meet her.
>>
>>500098959
nta, and true, but with wenduag its actually similar to greybore where you have to do certain things to ensure her loyalty, her betraying you is entirely variable which equates to when she gets her tribe and starts acting like shes the boss, or whenever she starts to act uppity you put her in her place and remind her who the *real* boss is.
>>
>>500089712
Fighter is easier to build than whatever the fuck a "zen archer" is.

If Wenduag had stopped at the part where she explains how they coerced her into the cannibalism because she was desperate and hungry I think more people would take her along

>>500100340
Honestly the whole point that makes recruiting her inexcusable is that she promises she'll do the same to all the other mongrels, and your only dialogue option is accepting the deal. It's such a hardcore evil choice that there's just no justifying it under any pretense of "I'm taking her to make her better" that any good character might justify it with. You're right that if she had stopped at "they forced me to cannibalize and I was too scared to try and break away after" it'd be perfectly justifiable, she could do that and then you can pick her as a good character, or if you still want her as evil, you tell her no and THEN she breaks the facade completely and promises you that she'll corrupt the other mongrels to give you an army.

Can I get a qrd on how to build a Rogue Trader? This system is completely xenos to me. I'd like a melee focused guy, preferably with the criminal background, and I don't know how important it is in this game for your own RT to be the party face.

>>500089712
You want a schizo spidercat gf. That's all the justification you need to put up with her bullshit long enough to get her true romance flags.
>>
>>500101438
Go either warrior for tankiness or Bladedancer for damage. Don't sweat about builds too much, you will get most of the talents you'd want anyway due to massive level cap.
>>
>>500101438
Warrior=Fighter
Weapon Skill= melee weapons (I think the Crime Lord background already gives a bonus to this, so that's good)
Then you want either Fortitude or Agility for defense, prob Fort
Perception is interesting because it lowers dodge resistance for anyone, which is something that you are fighting against because the game says that a melee attack 'always hits' but then it might miss due to dodges or parries (so it doesn't always hit???), and your dodge reduction mitigates this
Speech check wise, most of the time the game lets you use the person with the highest stat (Fellowship=Charisma), except in certain situations where you are alone and it wouldn't make sense for them to be helping you. Also there was at least one time where I was unable to use someone's own speech skill against them which I thought was cool/good. Fellowship also ties into the Officer/Strategist/Tactician abilities
>>
>>500103327
>>500103436

For any for of good, or hell even neutral, the only way I could justify it was 'Imagine the damage she could do if I'm not keeping an eye on her'.

Melee: Pyro Psyker --> Blade Dancer --> Arch Militant
The basic strategy is to use ignite and orchestrate flames to light yourself on fire and get on-hit flame damage on all your attacks.
Take whatever looks good early on, later you can always respec on the flagship later.

Act 1 will be where most of the game's difficulty is so enjoy it while you can.
Act 2 you get your 2nd archetype. Here are the basic guidelines:
>more psykers is always better as they can stack buffs
>more officers is always better as they can give free turns
>you need at least 1 grand strategist who can spam strategems on the frontline zone to keep your team alive
>you always want a biomancer on the team who can use invigorate to heal fresh wounds
>you'll want a dedicated DPS on the team
>try to get a team that can cover all the skills if you can

I think most of what I get out of this game is just making fun characters. The premise of what happens to Kenabres at the beginning of the game serves as this disaster movie kind of thing where it's a justification for characters with disparate backgrounds to team up, which is narrative gold (sir)

Maybe so, but action gameplay is not what I look for in crpgs. Otherwise Veilguard might as well be the game that "will save crpgs".

Never aactually played BG3, but out of curiosity: Is the romance overhyped or is it actually big? Or is it just like in WOTR with a few big scenes and little bits in between? Are the romances referenced during other dialogues here and there or do they just exist in the "scene instance"

Overhyped. Romances are contained in their own romance-related dialogues and scenes and almost never come up in other events.
>>
>>500147467
You can get Woljif as soon as Act 3 starts by just going the correct ways. If I remember right (you might have to google it), first you go west of the Temple of Delamere, then you go south from Drezen on the way to Wintersun.

So the fact you somehow missed him despite already doing the dragon and Wintersun is kinda wierd. Did you do Wintersun THEN the dragon? Did you go for the dragon through some wierd alternative way, like all the way around the lake?

It's bad
BG3 is very frontloaded so romances end in the first or second act
Game really pushes them on you since it initiates romances using your reputation with characters, ie you can start romance without talking to a character just by getting "X character liked this" (which is why a lot of people complained that Gale is molesting them)
Also very cringey sex scenes
Oh, also some companions (Karlach) didn't have a good ending at all in original release since part of the town with blacksmith needed for the quest was just cut. Maybe they fixed it but I'm not sure since I haven't played with all patches
Narrative-wise they're pretty mediocre as well. RT and even Wotr have a much better narrative for romances
>>
Soundrel/ Knight/ Loremaster for Power Attack > Cornugon > Shatter is seeming pretty damn good so far.
Something wierd, I don't know if it's a bug, but it only seems to happen when hitting demons and beasts, the combat log claims I'm casting Cause Fear.

I really want to try this as a full caster for level 9 spells, or at least 8 since there's that AoE fear spell in there, since BAB will be less of an issue hitting FF mobs.
