>>503044023I blame you
second for cross alignment cooperation.
>>503044657Parties are boring if everyone has the same alignement.
>>503044363Is necromancy a good school?
>>503044775xzar is a necromancer, so its about as useful as xzar is.
>>503044775I suck at that game so I don't know what's 'good' but I like it
>>503044775It's pretty robust.>Summons>Debuffs>Crowd Control

>PoE>NWN>BG>DEWhat do I play now
>>503045649You could try Encased or ATOM RPG, there both pretty neat.I wish more games had a weapon upgrade system like Encased.
>>503045192Nice
>>503046759>ATOM RPGCouldn't stand the type of 'humor' that seemed to permeate the game. Had the same issue with Tunguska: The Visitation.
>>503047207I instantly dropped Tunguska once the gameplay actually start, the combat really sucks.
>>503045649Since you've been playing some D&D partyshit as well as Disco I'd say it's time you play Planescape Torment and combine both extremes
https://store.steampowered.com/app/3314710/RAVENSBURG/The only upcoming gothic horror RPG is a fucking animesque dating sim.Fuck it, I'll take it. We need more gothic fantasy cRPGs.
>>503048640>Lovecraftianstopped reading there
>>503048708Fuck you, I like Lovecraft.
>>503048640>Developer: Lilian Duleroux>referred to as "he" on the itch io pagei don't like the looks of this
How are the Wrath DLCs? Saw that Gold Dragon got updated recently and that everything is on sale.
>>503048869The only lovecraftian games out therre are Cultism Sim and Book of Hours. The rest are just midwits thinking that lovecraftian means "tentacles lmao"
>>503049381The Last Sarkorian and Dance of Masks are pretty great. The rest are take it or leave it.
>>503048640>Set female MCNot playing nor buying.
>>503049748Eh, Alone in the Dark series is pretty fucking lovecraftian.But yeah, there aren't many good lovecraftian games and this upsets me.
>>503049748>The rest are just midwits thinking that lovecraftian means "tentacles lmao"People who think 'lovecraftian' means 'Invincible villains' aren't any better. Cthuluh got lobotomized by boat and the FBI took out the fishmen.
>>503049904>But yeah, there aren't many good lovecraftian games and this upsets me.I'll never forget that one turn based game that just...end at the midway point.No climax, no plot resolution, no nothing.
>>503049381>Inevitable ExcessLevel 20 content, but it sucks ass on all accounts. Inane puzzles, trash fights, dumb bosses, the works. Only worth to cheat on unfair for the main campaign rewards, which are good.>Through the AshesLow level content, like <6 level. Focuses on non-mythic characters, but isn't really bad, just weird at best and frustrating at worse. Offers a new metamagic rod for completing.>Treasure of the Midnight IslesDungeon crawl-y but definitely worth. Has a number of bis items in the main campaign and the standalone is pretty fun. Adds a fuck load of money and experience in act 3>Last Sarkorians Ulbrig and Shifter. Worth for sure.>Lord of NothingNarrative conclusion of Through the Ashes. Offers a new demon lord fight in act 5 which, I thought, was fun. >Dance of MasksHang out with your companions back in Kenabres and fight through a truly fucked up arena for some really nice gear. you can kiss camellia more. worth beyond measure.
>>503050141>>Dance of MasksThe fact that it's act 5 content is why is till haven't played it. I just can't be arsed finishing act 4 again
>>503045649Wasteland 3, I think it would be a good contrast to DE
>>503050041Stygian? Yeah, that game was a clusterfuck. Not only it was a total lovecraftian theme park, they ran out of budget halfway through development.
>>503050270Honestly even if it was completed, the fact it try so hard to sell you a bunch of bootlegger as an actual scary threat was pathetic.
>>503050270>Not only it was a total lovecraftian theme park,What do you mean by that?
>>503050576They didn't try to write a unique story with a lovecraftian feel, they essentially shoved every character for every Lovecraft short story into the game and made a story out of it.Something akin to Penny Dreadful, only less self-aware.
>>503050802Oh yeah, I agree then. The amount of name-dropping quickly get tiring.Also the railroading was insane.
>>503045192Is bnha any good? I like the character designs (musvle mommies) and general style.
>>503049748Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones, is pretty Lovecraftian. World of Horror and Skald too.Haven't played 'The Sinking City' yet but I'm afraid it leans too heavily in to the 'lol Tentacles, lmao' side of things.>>503049943>People who think 'lovecraftian' means 'Invincible villains' aren't any better.True.But I'd argue that Cthuluh's 'defeat' in that story was more to do with his cult being disrupted then the boat phasing through his head.>>503050270>it was a total lovecraftian theme parkI actually liked that about Stygian. Could it have been done better? Sure. But it still managed to feel like a world that was a continuation of the one that HP's stories took place in.It definitely could have used some more polish and oversight tho.
Anything out there that can scratch my ATOM RPG itch?I just got done playing a modded campaign of Jagged Alliance 3 and I'm looking for some more modern era CRPGS
