Bg3 won so hard that Obsidian and owlcat are going turn based now btw.
>>538491418I don't think in terms of who won or who lost I enjoy good rpgs and hope for more of them
>>538491509I agree. BG3 isn't for me, but I think: Rising tide lifts all boats
If you don't worship Camellia, you don't belong in this general
>>538491695maybe you should post the real cam instead of the VA then you fucking creep

These two make a cute couple
I almost finished second act before I figured out how Profit Factor works
>>538492225Is it true that Abelard freaks out if you let Marazhai dom your character publicly on the bridge?
>>538492293Same honestly. I thought it has to go down eventually
>>538492187They made the 3rd best fallout game right after 1 and 4
>>538492332Yes
Did anything get announced or was there news or something in the last month or is the only thing we have to look forward to that’s coming in less then 5 years still Dark Heresy
Owlcat bros.....
>>538492458Nasa has a press conference coming up about a weird rock they found on MarsMight be aliens.That's the only announcement I can think of.
>>538492456Does anything come of it? Does the crew mutiny?
How come only Owlcat, Larian and CDPR are making CRPGs?
>>538492774I haven't done it myself, but I think they just seethe quietly.
>>538492560America is facing a literacy crisis
>>538492802What are you talking about we have solasta 2,swordhaven,starfinder and banquet of fools coming up soon.
>>538492913that birdo has complete contempt for his companions, what game?
>>538493054Looks like menzoberranzan
>>538493131I don't remember Menzoberranzan looking that good
>>538492560Rogue Trader is more like a tv show. It has episodic adventures, an interesting cast, and the writing is mainly dialogue. With some editing it would be suitable for a set of scripts for a 24-episode show. Probably best split up over two seasons, with the escape from Cumrag as the first season finale
How does kineticist work? I'm trying to get this tiefling bitch to cast her fire spells but she doesn't ever have enough "burn"?
>>538493014Who?
Should I go shotguns, shotguns and shields, pyro psyker or melee psyker for my unfair Rogue Trader run?

We need another Arthurian crpg.
>>538497482You can hold hands with her ex
>>538497918Sounds good. I wish we had more CRPGs based off ancient legends and mythology. Like one set during the Trojan war or hunting all the monsters in Greek mythology.

>>538499008Thats just how russians talk
>>538492560Holy shit zoomers are so retarded it hurts.
>>538498139>hunting all the monsters in Greek mythologyIts been done. How about this for a million dollar CRPG idea: you are Zeus and have to shapeshift into myriad forms of mythical beasts and have sex (consensual rape) with beautiful women.
>>538499008The same fat slavic woman who wrote Marazhai's romance.

>>538499386slavic
>>538492225I would make it a rule never to do thisNever to describe how a character says somethingIt has its place, but overall it seems to lead to lazy and poor quality writingBetter to let the dialogue itself carry everything
>>538498139There was a period when dnd used to be interested in expanding the world of toril outside of faerun where we got some cool stories like that. I'd love a horselords game where you help not!Genghis Khan unite all the tribes under talos then fight not!king Arthur even if you do lose in the end
>>538499437Are we getting our red highlighters out again
>>538499437>lazy and poor quality writingWe're talking about Owlcat though, its to be expected. And they don't even realize it, considering how every dialogue is just a wall of useless text.

Deus ex should have let you side with unatco, I didn't want to betray them they were based as fuck.
Do we know what the next Rogue Trader dlcs will be?
>>538503343unatco?
>>538503467Either way before or way after dark heresy comes out
>>538503504Quit screwing around.
>>538503504United Nations Anti-Terrorist Coalition, the place you work at for half the game.
>>538503343It seems like it was cut. Anna Navarre and the lemon-lime guy were pretty major characters and it would have made sense to have a chance to side with them.Still, the segment in NYC where your former allies turn on you was major kino.
>>538503613U...unatco?
Deus ex being in the op makes no sense
Does anyone know how to use this?
>>538503613United Nations?
>>538503467Yes.
>>538503871We could always get weirder
>>538503871An isometric view does not a crpg make

>>538507658No
>>538499705I have the Horde boxed set from the 90s and it's really ace, includes the Tuigan alphabet and even a caravan generator for when you want to get mugged by the not-Mongols on the Silk Road. Incidentally the last two novels of the book series are the only ones I remember off hand, aside from Malazan, what happens when high level mages roll up their sleeves and really let rip.
>>538491418>ObsidianObsidian makes badly written FPS with minor RPG elements now. There's no world where they are going to make a turn based game ever.
>>538509679NTA but>Microsoft sees how much money BG3 made>Tells Osidian to make one tooCould very well happen
>>538509657>>538499705You can't have this because something something fetishization, orientalism, cultural appropriation, etc.

>>538510742Chud, no!!!
>>538510742A barbaric display
>>538510742The Chud fucking got me
One more chud from raz
Yrliet never knew how good she had it until it was too late
How did he fit in there though?
>>538512547He teleported inside, they can do that.
Raz will make art of every DH girl except the bl*ck
>>538512547it teleported, obviouslythat's like, the main feature of demons
>>538512894He made art of Idira in the past
how would yrliet handle being cucked?
Will Big R do anal with Argenta or is that reserved for Yrliet?
>>538513721Argenta is for mating press for the sole purpose of procreation
>>538491418> Bg3> wonNah, this slop was botted as fuckJust look at the activity around the game to understand that this is true.It’s not being discussed anywhere, videos about it aren’t getting views, and no one seems interested.Games like RT and WOTR are discussed FAR more often, despite having a much smaller online presence. People are watching guides and builds on YouTube for those games, not for BG3.Everything points to the fact that BG3’s online numbers on Steam were inflated by bots.
>>538493634make sure she's unarmed. if you are using turned based, then check what level of auto burn reduction you are using. higher levels of auto-burn require more actions(highest level requires 2 movement actions and a casting action)
I know the next dlc won't be until April but do we know about the next patch for RT?
If I'm being truthful, half the BG3 posts in this general are mine and I only make them when I want a quick (You). I have literally never seen that game seriously discussed here, its always used as bait. Every other game you have people blogpost about their playthroughs or favorite characters or lore, but BG3 the most you'll get is "SHADOWHEART HALSIN YJK KEK CHUD TRANNIES BTFO".
>>538514087Shouldn't you be seething about tencent on /v/?
Solasta was released in 2021 which means larian had two whole years to learn how to properly do 5e combat but chose not to.
>>538513890What about when she's already pregnant then? Shouldn't anal be okay then?
Reminder that Owlcat devs prefer BG3 to their own games
>>538512547A bunch of cultists turn into Glabrezu at various points in the game. He was human sized when he entered. In AD&D I don't think Glabrezu can shapeshift, but I guess they can in Pathfinder.
>>538510742>flamerThis is how you make Argenta sad.She's a bolter girl.
>>538491418Naw. Actually BG3 is RTwP under the hood and that's exactly with Obsidian did with Avowed. Checkmate, biotch.
>>538499246That's a pretty good one, bro.
>>538514087You're correct but legitimate fans do exist so you'll get pushback. It really should've been called something else instead of BG3. Baldur's Gate: Dark Urge or something.
>>538492332>didnt peg Marzipanlow estrogen baka
>>538514478>unarmedThis was it, thanks, I was confused why she just chucked fire spells and had three abilities that never did anything and other powers just spammed 'unavailable' unhelpfully.
>>538504174(Me)Click on the arrow above a used spell and you can remember it.
>>538516347reminder that not burning all your bridges by saying other studios suck is part of being a community manager
>>538517692i don't think the game mentions anywhere that you need both hands free to cast kinetic blasts
>>538518010I think I might've figured it out sooner if I had rolled a kineticist from level 1 instead of picking up a companion that was already a few levels in, but it definitely isn't mentioned anywhere that I was able to see.
Kineticist makes you interact with the auto-cast functionality of the game that is entirely optional for everyone else (except Magus I think). Read the descriptions carefully and there's some good guides if you are still confused. Burn is a weird mechanic because it is both a penalty and bonus.
Boggards and Wererats can go back to whatever hell they crawled out from.
>>538517918>most popular game>not "a game we love" or "one of our favourites"Are you seriously suggesting that he lied and when polled the Owlcat devs didn't actually say BG3 was their favourite game? Very weird thing to lie about when you could have just worded differently and it would have come across just as good
>>538516407In 1e AD&D, the glabrezu can use Polymorph Self at will. I also checked the Pathfinder 1e Bestiary, and the PF one can use Veil (only on itself) to disguise itself; they're also noted to be tricky bastards and use disguise often.
>>538519203>Are you seriously suggesting that a literal marketer lied yes.
>>538517528It should've been called what it actually is - DOS3
>>538516152we need to ask rasz
>>538518498>Burn is a weird mechanic because it is both a penalty and bonus.How does that make it weird? Also Kineticists are so utterly broken that the hit to your HP is never an issue due to their alpha striking capability.
>>538518523>stumbling into Ratnook Hill at early levelsA classic. And while we're on the subject of monsters, I fucking hate worgs. TRIP TRIP TRIP TRIP
Would Argenta prefer a daughter or a son?
>>538519587Sisters of Battle are infertile.
What do we think about Owlcat's zone/area design in Kingmaker where they made some areas that you're supposed to visit early also have high level enemies that you, realistically, have to come back later to deal with? I vividly remember the corner with either 2 bears or owlbears that were much higher level than the rest of the area. I don't remember Wrath or RT ever doing anything similar.Is it a good or bad design choice?
>>538519315I read someplace that Minthara or whatever her name was was also modelled off a man but I'm not sure if it was just a shitpost or true and didn't care enough about BG3 to look it up
>>538519315>complaining about a dwarf with a beard
>>538519785I control a C'tan shard, your argument is invalid.
>>538519836I walked into a cave next to a bridge and there was a fat silly green worm inside that apparantly is supposed to be some kind of ancient dragon.I didn't have a problem with it because I was able to leave after identifying it but I thought that it shouldn't have looked so silly and cartoony.
>>538519836> I don't remember WrathThis fight is designed for when you emerge from the Abyss, but they're letting you test your strength early.
>>538519409They aren't broken for half the game. 1 attack a turn, which you will miss, until you unlock the good stuff. Unlimited greases is very strong, but not broken in the context of the game.
>>538520051> I control a C'tan shardToo overrated. Many of them have already been destroyed on the battlefield, including by small Space Marine forces.Its power level is lower than that of a Primarch, and a Solitaire is roughly equal in strength to a Primarch, so a shard can easily be destroyed by Nocturne.
>>538519836Kingmaker has the worst encounter design out of their games.>here's the dungeon full of venomous insects at level 2>here's a boss that chucks a fireball at your lvl 3 party first thing after cutscene>here's a wererat ambush behind 30 dc trap>here's a nigh unwinnable solo companion duel >here's another oneetc.
>>538519836The timers do make it feel really fucking annoying to go all the way out to a place and then have to turn around because you can’t do an encounter yet.
>>538519836RPGs that don't have impossible or extremely hard fights scattered around that you should probably come back to later aren't immersive at all.Wrath does have a few. Particularly the bonus fights in the Midnight Fane are better to come back to later.
Even if you know how to deal with them swarms are still rage inducing. Kingmaker’s early swarm cave was like them crafting the ultimate encounter to get people to uninstall their game.
If dwarves heal better than healing potions then why not just eat dwarves for healing?
>>538520948Their games are not for casuals or coombrains, so they have a DECENT difficulty.Shit like balls hurt gay 3 is easy as fuck and can barely qualify as a game whatsoever
>>538520381Nomos cockblocked an entire invasion fleet no drama. Sure its not the void dragon of mars but its better than anyone who isnt the silent king has
>>538520051>>538520381Nomos is not a shard
>>538521319what the fuck is this dogshit edit?
never ask a chud who complains about trans characters what porn he watches
>>538521617you're telling on yourself, fag
>>538521346> Nomos cockblocked an entire invasion fleet no drama. Firstly, he couldn’t do anything about the Eldar invasion, which swept through your protectorate in a bloody wave.Secondly, he didn’t stop it, only delayed it, and only because Maw is already a barely navigable hell. Once your Rogue Trader dies of old age, your protectorate will be brutally reintegrated into the Imperium.Not to mention, if the Golden Boy himself decided to show up earlier in person, no Nomos would have stopped him.For an iconoclast, the only good ending is cooperating with Calcazar. In all other cases, everything you’ve worked for will be destroyed.
>>538520481The dungeon is much easier if you're a sorcerer with Burning Hands (thank fuck I usually first play a mage walkthrough in these kinds of games) OR you know to pack Molotov cocktails. Ratnook Hill is a high-calibre dick move I give you that. But you've forgotten to mention the two absolute dickpunches Owlcat included in the early game: Viscount Smoulderburn and the Technic League event.
>>538521478Nomos is a shard of a shard.
>>538521746> I usually first play a mageGay
Imperiumfags get triggered super easily

>>538521590This dude already shelfed yrliussy
>>538521715how did you know?
>>538522010if you pass some check I forget which you determine at the end that Nomos overpowers the VD shard fairly easily because he is a whole sentient being, not a shard
>>538522334Exactly
How legitimate is it to level-zero respec teammates in RT to either completely change their archetype or alter their pre-set build?The game already allows you to hire custom mercenaries that you create from scratch, but I still feel like it’s kind of cheating.
>>538522564so nomos is a developing baby c'tan
>>538516347desu it's probably much easier to enjoy a game that you didn't work on
>>538516347>in this genre we're so few that we're not really competitorsCOPEI'm not giving Bioware another cent after Andromeda
>>538519836I guess I'm in the minority here because I like that kind of thing in all the videogames I enjoy.Of course it all depends on nuance: the implementation, moderate use, etc... But consider the opposite: A perfectly tailored theme-park experience where the world is somehow in total lock-step with the player's progression. That is very much *not* what I want.
>>538491285YJK
>>538521746Smoulderburn is a bit of a dickpunch but there's also indication that bad things went down and it would be unwise to sleep there, but yes that's mostly an asshole-DM moment. I would defend the Technic League event though, especially because it's one of very few times that they (or any CRPG creator, really) offers up a "Losing can be interesting" scenario and I really love that. That was a very kino moment to me and really kept me engaged in the early game because of how cool I thought that story beat was after I lost to them, but then tracked them down.
>>538522709Because it is. Anything that doesn't feel like roleplay is cheating. Stat dumping, using turn-based in RTWP, doing full respecs of characters that canonically are a certain class, its all cheating.
>>538491285Its funny, I consume all r34 of franchises I don't even play if they have sexy bitches (FF7, Overwatch, RE, etc) but Shadowheart does absolutely nothing for me. There's something truly vile and demonic about the character design of literally every character in BG3.
>>538523732thanks 4 sharingfavorite OW babe? mine's Tracer
>>538523973Marika
Only thing this weg is good for is making smug frogs.
Kingmaker was like a gamble from an indie studio and it's hilarious to see some defend it as some kind of polished masterpiece like Owlcat were in complete mastery of their craft at the time
Play Divinity Original Sin 2
>>538522709There's just no need to minmax like that. Even on the hardest difficulty, RT is not a hard game. Even the weaker companions can easily pull their own weight in combat.
Kingmaker was the perfect game because it fully supported the brap mage
>>538524898>male narrator>cringy narration during sex scenesno
>>538523596Yeah... but here's the thing, I want to respec Kibellah into an operative. And when comparing the operative to the bladedancer-executioner... it makes you wonder what’s actually cheating.>>538524912> There's just no need to minmax like that.It's not about minmaxing, it's about maxmining. I don't want bladedancer in my group, but i want Kibellah
>>538522712Correct
>>538523973Tracer is the best
>Iconoclast Nomos>Befriend a lord inquisitor & Heinrix>Become friendly with the imperial fleet>Be mostly dogmatic/pro imperiumThere's basically no way the imperium wouldn't be super chill with your protectorate. Yeah some puritan inquisitors would make a fuss but Calcazar would basically convince most radical inquisitors that you're on the level and as long as you're not being too heretical with your iconoclast:isms then it would be way too much effort to amount to any serious crusade launched on your ass. The Imperium wouldn't expend the resources necessary to take down a C'tan shielded radical inquisitor friendly protectorate that still worships the Emperor and pays its tithes.
>>538524898>Kiddinity 2: Unoriginal ShitNo.
Million dollar CRPG idea, Overwatch CRPG.

>>538526403Absolutely. I haven't myself tried, but I've seen a fairly common strategy of firing one, then switching to a second to fire. So skipping the long reload phase to quickly get a ton of Focus.
>>538526515you don't understandhaving to rely on a being only created by a freakish technovirus and a ship system in a one in a million chance makes this extremely retarded ideology considering the state of the universe totally viable

The only way kiddinity 2 could've been good is by allowing the player to romance mommy Malady. Nothing could've saved kiddinity 1.
What is your most controversial but genuine opinion that isn't trolling? I think BG1 is a rather average RPG and BG2 is the one that really elevated the story.
>>538524898If I had a few bros to play that game with I would give it a whirl, but I am not touching that shitshow by myself again.
>>538527037That is the most common opinion though? Preferring 1 is the minority opinion.
>>538527037That CRPGs have only improved as time went on and anyone unanimously praising the older ones just have nostalgia glasses stuck to their faces.
what a completely uncontroversial and luke warm take
>>538527037controversial here or everywhere? We are in the contrarian capital of the Internet.
It's nomOS, retards
>>538527037dice rolling and resting are out of place in digital environment
>>538527037Is that really controversial?
>>538527148>>538527570You won't believe the number of people who claim BG1 is the better game
>>538521735>Firstly, he couldn’t do anything about the Eldar invasion, which swept through your protectorate in a bloody wave.Unironically the Owlcat ending slide retardation. They're on record saying that they dont put much effort on those>Secondly, he didn’t stop it, only delayed it,Source?>Once your Rogue Trader dies of old age,Rejuvenat + nomos>Golden Boy himselfRG would approve of everything Iconotrader is doing and would just talk things over
>>538527037BG2 is on-rails except for the very early game where you just get a ton of quests every time you turn a corner. Irenicus is also way over-valued as a villain.BG1 is a satisfying open-world feeling adventure that captures the spirit of tabletop, and has a much better overall narrative that slowly emerges as you advance in the story.BG2 character interactions are over-valued as well, and typically just come down to their caricature single trait hammered home with very little actual reactivity.
>>538526208This is false. If you earned his trust, you can convince him to let you have the C'tan.>>538526515What part of what I wrote is delusional?
>>538527708Yes, I am one of them. Many more people prefer BG2. I used to as well before I came back to 1 in more recent times and played it a bunch.
>>538527708>>538527869See?
>>538525065If it increases your enjoyment of the game, do it. I could see Kibellah being an operative
>>538527848>Secondly, he didn’t stop it, only delayed it,>Source?NTA but if I remember correctly the ending slide just says that nomos caused a warp storm around your protectorate which would delay the invasion by decades or centuries
>>538527037SWTOR has a better story than BG3 at least for the first 3 acts.
Most of BG1’s maps might as well not even be there>oh boy some more trash encounters and maybe a single npc to talk to with nothing of value to say
>>538528607>npc>something of value to say
Will Owlcat ever give an actual logical explanation to their mandatory perks for certain companions? RT is the worst offender when it comes to this and makes 0 sense. Doesn't affect me in the slightest because toybox goes brrr but still, their braindead stance on this is infuriating
>>538527879> This is false. If you earned his trust, you can convince him to let you have the C'tan.C'tan is not Nomos. You can have C'tan shard, but Nomos dies. You can have both Nomos and Calcazar's protection
>>538528607I love fighting wolves and gnolls
>>538525535Its not even all of that. Its that the Imperium even gives a shit about Iconotrader despite the tithes still flowing AND can also afford to do something about this given the current state of the galaxy>Calixis Sector invades>while the very next game establishes Calixis Sector is currently imploding>while the great rift is open and the entire galaxy is a mess
>>538528607Which ones are you talking about exactly?Seems whenever this comes up and I press for which map is "empty", the other anon falls silent for some reason.
>>538528778>>538528607To be clear I'm looking for over 21 examples, as you said "Most"... And that's treating all sections of the city of Baldur's Gate as 1.
>>538528753I mean nothing suggests it's more than one or two autistic puritan inquisitors calling a crusade. It really doesn't mean much.
>>538527879basically all of itthe Imperium isn't very chill
>>538528749Sometimes there’s skeletons bro
>>538528778What happens in the unnamed areas 5, 6, 9, 10, 12, 13, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 21, 23, 24, 27, 28, 29, 31? Were they truly essential to the story?
>>538529064>the Imperium isn't very chillBut it is extremely massive, under constant attack and with limited resources. Not to mention very corrupt and you're friends with a lord inquisitor who supports what you're doing. The Imperium is very practical when it comes to this, they're not going to divert a shit ton of resources to destroy a non-threat, especially when you have high ranking friends within the inquisition.
>>538528778> all that shit just to get you to level 7/8
>>538528142No thats not what it says. Here:>Protecting the young kingdom of freedom, **Nomos created dimensional barriers that cut the Koronus Expanse off from the Imperium more soundly than the Great Rift.** The Humanity of the Expanse was left in isolation. Relying only on themselves, they either had to build something new and different from the Imperium or fall to the horrors lurking in the darkness.If Big E knew that some normal human pulled off a better deal than what he has going on with the Void Dragon (if on a lesser scale) hed be pretty impressed and then have a fucking anneurysm the rest of his Imperium forced that person and his star god son to pack up their toys and go home(Also forgot to add but if RT is a biomancy psyker they'l live for even longer)
>>538529524why do they waste time fighting Tau thenhell they fight each other half the time
I genuinely despise Idira. Why does this worthless retard have to keep killing herself or the rest of the team?
>>538529889don't keep taking her in your party then perhaps
>>538527869Except it's not on-rails. You get to choose when you do what you want and you can stop to do something else at pretty much any time. You also get to choose *how* you do something, as you are generally given multiple story-driven options in conjunction with your excellent, expansive list of ways to go about things in the IE. Except there are more in BG2 because it's an evolved form of BG1. If it makes you "feel" like you should hurry on to progress the main story, then that's just a good job on BG2's part. Character interactions are a drop in the bucket. The game was made to be played with zero NPC companions. Everyone in the BG1 vs BG2 camp is so stupid. They are two different games made to be different so you get two different experiences. And thank God for that.
>>538529501>What happensPlenty of things. Random little events, encounters, bits of quests here and there. I'm not going through it all.>Were they truly essential to the story?Of course not, but this is part of making a world that feels open and close to the tabletop experience. Not everything in the world has its eyes on the protagonist, the geography of a region doesn't shift according to some story playing out within its bounds. Head right to Nashkel then right to the bandits then right to the city if you'd like. Or, have some side adventures, if you prefer.
>>538530281By plenty of things do you mean trash mobs surrounding one point of interest in a big empty map
>>538529834Okay then I'm probably mixing it up with the generic iconoclast ending where it says it will take the fleet decades or centuries to reach your protectorate.>created dimensional barriers>cut the Koronus Expanse off from the Imperium>left in isolationThis part seems a bit weird, no? Surely the C'tan could allow navigation through his own barrier, right?
>>538530109>Except it's not on-rails. You get to choose when you do what you want and you can stop to do something else at pretty much any timeThat's a little disingenuous, it applies to any RPG. But, aside from the early game, so setting off to Spellhold and afterwards, is a pretty linear path. >Everyone in the BG1 vs BG2 camp is so stupid. They are two different games made to be different so you get two different experiences. And thank God for that.Completely agreed. I love both games of course, but I do think BG1 is an overall "better" (though the idea of a total order on the space of games is stupid) game, and certain elements of BG2 are over-praised.
>>538498231Dragon age past Origins, women love that slop series for some reason
>>538529880I don't know too much about the Tau lore but wouldn't that strengthen my point rather than weaken it? The Tau is a very small empire and much weaker than the Imperium, no? But the Imperium hasn't actually sent huge resources to annihilate them, right? So if they're mostly tolerating them and only dedicating a few resources to wage war, why wouldn't they do the same with you?
>>538514087
Owlcat said that they might add new colonies in future DLCs, would you want that?
>>538514087>People are watching guides and builds on YouTube for those games, not for BG3.Are we living on different realities? Despite not watching anything BG3 related, build updates and unique interactions keep getting recommended to me. When I tried looking for anything WOTR related, it's the same person showcasing some ZOMGHIGHDMG build that only comes only 95% into the game.
>>538531221The only thing I can imagine replaying the game for is a new class.
>>538530573Thats just on owlcat being lazy with the endslides. If they didnt go through the effort for Arue's ending slides they're not gonna revamp *every* end slide if you got the secret ending
>>538530691>That's a little disingenuousIt is disingenuous to say BG2 is "on-rails", mate. Spellhold and the UD are such a tiny portion of the overall content in the game. You choose when you enter that portion and how long you stay. Then, *after* the UD, you can take your time doing whatever you want until you decide to end it. You can finish all the quests you'd like and you can even *return* to the UD if you want. Then you can choose to finish the campaign, but it's still not even "on-rails". I don't think you understand what that term really means.
>>538531409I don't really mind that though, the ending slides don't really contradict each other. It would take them decades/centuries to get through the warp storm AND then would have to figure out a way to cross the barrier. It's not like they would see the barrier created by nomos - if they could even see it at all - and be like okay we won't invade then without even trying first.
>>538531221No, I would prefer they stop working with 40slop.
Will they fix Yrliet's soulstone ending slide at some point or will remain retarded forever? There's no way they won't fix it, right?
>>538531221>new waifus>new classes>new weapon typesAt least 2 out of those 3 requirements would need to be fufilled.
>>538531695Finishing quests after the UD and returning to the UD makes about as much sense as piddling around the Deadfire while Eothas is making his way to Ukaizo. Yes I'd call it a bit on-rails. Not strictly bringing the player A->B->C but if you actually follow the story it's very much like that.Sure you *can* fuck around, but it makes much less sense than the fucking around you do in BG1.
>libtards of mediocrity
>>538531265Most CRPG channels have long abandoned BG3 because there are only about 2.5 builds in the entire game that they cycle through repeatedly.In games like WOTR, there’s practically infinite room for build-crafting, with builds that feel great from level 1 and others that start breaking the game at level 15 but do it better than the rest.That’s the charm of a game with deep build-crafting.RT also has excellent build-crafting, but the game itself is too easy.
>>538525630I hate DA:I
You reckon DLC 3 & 4 will also add one companion each or not?
>>538532193>Posts a screenshot showing "infinite" builds with barely hundreds of views in it>Literally one build for each characterCool. So I actually bothered looking for this guy and it's from CRPGBro who likes making buildslop """"guides""". This is precisely what I was talking about guides with builds only being good at the last tenth of the game.
Why can’t zoomers just say they don’t like a game? Why do they have to do this bullshit with sales or social media engagement?
>>538532436ANOTHER 2 DOGMATIC BISEXUAL COMPANIONS
>>538526068no because his actions dont match his words. he clearly highly enjoyed it to play several campaigns 400+ hours. that's like saying you hate trannies and have 400+ hours fucking them
do retards actually spend time watching videos of other people playing a game lmao
>>538531221Colonies and ship battles couldn't interest me less. I'll never understand Owlcats obsession with putting all that extra shit in their crpg, if I wanted grand stategy, I'd be elsewhere.
>>538528702>mandatory perks for certain companionsSuch as?
>>538533127i imagine low IQ brown people and a few brown brained caucasians do. they are lonely from being creatures but don't take corrective action due to their small brains
>>538527708I'm not saying it's a *better* game (although I do wish every RTwP shilling git should enjoy the "no pause going to the inventory screen" combined with the classic "no weapon sets" until the end of time) but I did *like* it more than 2. The map felt like a good old hexcrawl, hunting around for shit you might have missed, wondering what's behind the fog of war, etc. Not to mention I played AD&D in the Realms and seeing the references to the sourcebooks (like the Chill mercenaries from Gold and Glory and the places from Volo's Guide to the Sword Coast) was really nice.
which companion has the cutest feet
>>538532750You're an idiot. His English guides have many views and he specifically builds for the entire game, start to finish, for hard or unfair.
>>538532750>barely hundreds of views in itThose are in denominations of 1000. So that first video has 157K views, etc.
>>538533446linzi
>>538533498I kept that there because I can't read that language you're posting on. You're right, it does have tens to hundreds of thousands of views and guess what, he does this for nearly every relevant game that comes out and you know what's the funniest thing? He hasn't even made a guide for the new RT class since he's fully focused on Expedition 33.
>wotr build videos>actually just pet builds or some flavor of trickster zzz
>>538534181You can play all the Trickster builds as Demon, Azata, or whatever. Just don't take the improved crit feats. Those videos are a great resource to teach you how to build characters so you can make your own.Not his fault that pets are OP in Wrath. That's how the game works. You can drop those too if you go extremely hard on crowd control, even on hard, though.
Is there any downside to kill both Felek and Theobald? Both these retards seem too dangerous to let live and given the chaos corruption I'd rather not take the chance.
>>538492560>6 hours longa novel crammed into a video review
>>538535164i've read a novel in under an hour before
>>538535027House Orsellio is a powerful noble house. Killing Theobald wouldn't be diplomatically prudent.
>>538503192Bluetooth headphones or earbuds can't be that expensive.
>>538535328You aren't wrong. Ah fuck it I'll tell Theobald to help me fight Felek and take him out. Its a shame I won't get that navigator staff.
>>538535776I think you get Theobald's staff regardless
>>538533409>being creaturesIs there an alternative to being a creature?
>>538533330I meant the pre-assigned talents/levels not being able to respec a character from level 1/2
>>538519562Trip is brutal but I have my own pet dog so it evens out.
Nigga wants to fuck book feet lmao
>>538520948The first time in Fangberry Cave was incredibly frustrating.The second time I just mass purchased Acid Flasks and Alchemical Fire and it was easy going.I actually hated the Mandragora swarms at the end of the game more than the spider swarms at the beginning.
What would Linzi do if you put your dick between her pages?
"I think I now realise why our leader is so obsessed with growing his kingdom".
>mother naming her character after her daughter>has sex with HeinrixWhat did she mean by this?
the wotr companions sit down to play a little PF1ewhat roles do they play?
>>538527037I actually prefer the skill breakpoints system over rolling dice for skillchecks. For example, in Fallout, you would have a speech check that requires 75 Speech skill, and if you had 50 speech skill, you couldn't do it. Likewise, if you did have 75 Speech skill, you wouldn't fail, you just meet the requirements and keep going. This still allows for build diversity and roleplaying.I know dice rolling is a sacred cow and lots of people love it, but I actually think it's kind of stupid that I can be a thief will skill expertise lockpicking and 20 agility and everyone smiles and says "teehee you still have a 5% chance to fail :)" as if that's realistic or good gameplay. But if the lock just has a 20 lockpicking skill requirement, and you meet it or you don't. that better represents the realistic situation that a good lockpicker has just learned how that level of lock works and can apply his skillset. That's how life works.This doesn't apply to combat, because in combat you're stressed and there's a time limit and everything is happening at once so there is a realistic chance that something goes wrong even if you're a master swordsman, you can still miss. But when you're just calmly staring at a locked chest or you're in a tavern having a good time talking to someone to convince, thenRelated, something I wish more games would feature, is the simple "take 10" and "take 20" rules, where if there is no stress or time limit, a player may elect to take 10 minutes or take 20 minutes to lock in that dice roll without rolling, representing the fact that their character just takes it slow and approaches the problem methodologically and thus doesn't have to roll. This would solve my issue as well, but for some reason every game developer forgets this exists.
>>538499437Anon I... I agree
>>538541381Arueshalae... y-you... you should stop posting
>>538540671>But if the lock just has a 20 lockpicking skill requirement, and you meet it or you don't. that better represents the realistic situation that a good lockpicker has just learned how that level of lock works and can apply his skillset. That's how life works.I think it's not as simple as that though. Two things come to mind: There really is a luck factor with 'chaotic' systems. Sometimes you're good at what you do and fumble, and sometimes you accidentally make something work that's typically beyond you. The second issue is being a 19 lock-picker against a 20 lock. You have no chance in a million years. But then "magic happens" and now you're a 20 lock-picker, and now you can never fail.Not to say what you're saying doesn't have merit, I also like those systems (about equally though with dice rolling, I'm fine with either, depends on implementation) but it's complicated and not as simple as "That's how life works.">take 10wait does that really stand for "take 10 minutes"? I didn't know that. I also like those kind of mechanics. Ritual casting as well, though more suited to tabletop where you can wave through 10min/hour instead of sitting with your character.The passage of time in general is pretty fucked in CRPGs, resting during Lost Chapel/Drezen comes up a lot in here for one example. Finishing quests after the underdark in BG2 mentioned recently another.I suppose at some point videogames have to draw a line as to what they'll consider out-of-scope and not part of the experience, where tabletop is a lot more flexible.
>>538540624I can make guesses: Arue would be a half-elf CG cleric of Desna of course, Greybor would be a dwarf N slayer because do you think he'd not self-insert, Cam would be a human CE rogue with an edgy backstory who would steal from the party, Regill wouldn't play because that would not benefit the Crusade, and Nenio wants to play AD&D, specifically Dragonlance where she can roll a kender thief.
>>538491285hey thats my screenshot aha
>>538542565Don't own up to that
The very first blast of Halsin's seed into Shadowheart while you are asleep or leave them at camp, permanently changes her "scent."This is a druid thing, he essentially completely marks her as his. Even though he allows you to be with her, the scent transformation is always there to remind both of you about his ownership of her.
>>538544591He is beginning his weekly Shadowheart rant in /bgg/ , you should post it there
>>538540671No, you are entirely correct. Random skill check rolls is 100% garbage. While I have a no reloads ever policy when I play Baldur's Gate 1 or 2, I save scum failed skill rolls in Pathfinder because it is a garbage system. I has no comparison to random combat rolls because you can just attack again the next turn. And if the enemy saves against your spell you were counting on, it adds excitement and danger. A one time roll where you have a 5% minimum chance to fail is just garbage.
>>538540671>For example, in Fallout, you would have a speech check that requires 75 Speech skill, and if you had 50 speech skill, you couldn't do it. Likewise, if you did have 75 Speech skill, you wouldn't fail, you just meet the requirements and keep going. This still allows for build diversity and roleplaying.Honestly? Stop talking.
>>538532021>okay, it's not on-rails, but my imagination is too limited to like itThe story moves as quickly as you do. It's called Schrödinger's gun. Whatever problems you have with the freedom to do as you please within the game; know they exist entirely in your own head. If you can create them, then you can change them and imagine any number of possibilities. What you can't do is tell me that BG2 is on-rails because it absolutely lets you do whatever the fuck you want.
>>538499437>Never to describe how a character says something>It has its place, but overall it seems to lead to lazy and poor quality writingNever once in the history of literature has this correlation been observed. Should all voice acting be delivered in absolute monotone as well? If there is no VA, then adding in frequent novel-like descriptions of mannerisms and delivery is a great idea.
>>538545952>it absolutely lets you do whatever the fuck you want.Let me explore the land between Athkatla and Nalia's Keep.Oh, can't? Or anywhere else, just visit the points on the map? Hmm, doesn't sound like "absolutely lets you do whatever the fuck you want" to me. Even more following the story, sure you can invent headcanon for why you're dragging your heels before going to Spellhold, or twiddling your thumbs doing errands after emerging from the Underdark, but the reality is this straight arrow:Imoen taken -> (random quests around the area) -> Spellhold -> Underdark -> Final battle.Whatever reasons you have to twiddle your thumbs against the story's trajectory; know they exist entirely in your own head.
>>538541930"Take 10" actually stands for getting a free 10 on a d20. At least in Pathfinder it doesn't take any longer than normal, but it's only possible when you're not under any time pressure. If you're good enough to open the lock on an average roll, and you're not stressed or distracted, then you can skip rolling and just assume you did an average job this time.Take 20 gives you the equivalent of rolling a nat 20, but takes 20 times as long, and automatically triggers any penalties for failing the roll. It's just a way of streamlining the process of trying over and over again until you get a high roll.
>>538546605Listen, headcanon-Imoen really wanted to see Athkatla and get in on all the sidequesting she'd missed.
cprg romance idea: someone who is toxic and not good relationship material
>>538540671>>538545353Dice roll skill checks are for TTRPGs. They fall flat in CRPGs because of savescumming. It needs no further explanation than this. You don't have to start talking about the plausibility of an experienced thief failing to pick a given lock. It's just part of the TTRPG design which doesn't translate well in a computer game. Players won't savescum for every miss in combat, but they will when they feel they've lost out on some 'content' due to bad luck.The first step toward solving this problem is simply not to show options which the party can't take, like greyed out dialogue choices or failed checks. I think WotR or Tyranny included this as a menu setting for dialogue if I recall correctly. For example, in BG3 you get four loud dice roll sound effects and four 'check failed' popups every time you miss a hidden item in the world. In RT, on the other hand, if you fail to spot hidden loot there is nothing to suggest that anything happened at all.
>>538546892But where's the drama in that anon? Here, have this sideplot of her NEEDING to fuck another man to be impregnated so the world wouldn't end. She dies during childbirth and now you have to raise the baby.
>>538546892Wendog, Cam, Marzipan
>>538546605>moving the goal postsGet outta here with your nonsense. By your logic, BG1 is "on-rails" because it doesn't let you explore Sarevok's asshole. >invent headcanonIt's called role-playing, ya retard. Did you somehow make it to the wrong place? This is /CRPGG/. You're obviously a troll come here to shitpost if you're going to reduce role-playing to "invent headcanon".
>>538546892Wenduag, Cam, Marz, Peebee, Astarion for the first part before he does like you for real.
>>538546892Jae
>>538540671>But when you're just calmly staring at a locked chestAnother point to consider is that in tabletop this is fine and good because there's an active GM. You're the best lock-picker in the world and roll a 1 in a quiet setting. >CRPG: "lol too bad for you>GM: "Right as you're about to get it, a bug out of nowhere literally flies right in your eye and you curse it and swat but end up breaking your lockpick"Hell, the GM could go on if they wanted, allowing a perception check that this rare beetle is exactly what you need to grind up and make a specific poison.There's no active response in CRPG though. Ignoring patches/DLC, from the moment of sale to the player, every single path and consequence and response is baked in solid with no possible deviation, because it's a computer program taking up a finite amount of space.That's not to say that I'm apologizing for the stupidity of CRPGs in those kind of situations, they really do need to be a lot better, but it's just something to keep in mind since most CRPGs are just fairly direct ports of (or heavily inspired by) tabletop systems that have as an essential component, the Game Master.

An orc companion in RT or Dark Heresy just needs to happen. Too bad orcs suck in 40K and there are no black orc equivalents.
You know there are more aliens out there than just the 4 that GW decided to make minis of.There's no reason we can't just get a brand new OC xeno species.
>>538567870Fuck that gimme a Vespid companion.
>>538567646They're way better than fantasy's green cavemen. Goffs, or if you want a unit stormboyz, are the black orc equivalent.

>>538570373Yes, Fauchards are worth spending a feat on if you want to use a two hander.Glaives aren't exotic, though.
>>538570373Yeah but if you want to you have to look through the neoseeker list to plan out everything. Missing the act 1 Estoc because you didn't recruit Woljif sucks.https://www.neoseeker.com/pathfinder-wrath-of-the-righteous/guides/Unique_Items
>>538570373Fauchard, Estoc, and Falcata are all worth the feat slot on a martial. Especially if you dip into Fighter 1 for a "free" exotic weapon proficiency
>>538491285The knowledge nature arrives spontaneously
>>538570558My bad, I just assumed they were special because they were so rare.I saw some nunchucks that might have been good for my Slayer but he wasn't able to equip them.
>>538563389Oh yeah the next DLC will include implants and augmentations as its gameplay addition
>>538570527>The Darven creator knew what he was doing. Infamy is still fame.I suppose that's possible. There are a LOT of D&D players who lack self-introspection though.Not a Magus. Call of the Wild Warpriest. Basically the Divine equivalent of a Magus, so more self-buffs vs touch attacks. Fauchard + Enlarge Person gaming.
>>538570373>he takes weapon focus on all party membersnice enjoy that +1 bro
>>538572683Weapon Focus often leads to better feats down the line.Also, I will happily take a +1 to attack. I even get dodge for +1 to AC.
>>538573078I'm aware, but often those feats down the line don't apply to a character at all but dum-dums take Weapon Focus anyhow because the big green thumbs-up = good, I guess?Please tell me you take Weapon Focus: Crossbow for your casters lmao
>>538573282Anon are you aware that Weapon Focus: Ray exists?
>>538530281>Plenty of things. Random little events, encounters, bits of quests here and thereAh, the classic "just be yourself" of arpiggers
>>538568903Darven is 100% a joke. He winks at you, teleports behind people, has tons of rope and gold, is just so cool, etc
>>538574609At least he's better than getting locked in some numerian bullshit dungeon.
>>538565652>But what about the waifus and classes?you break out the alternate universe loyalist Fulgrim clone out Trazyn's Museum
>>538573282what else are you going to spend feats on for you dumdum melee fighters?
>>538575964It makes sense for fighters but many or most other classes don't benefit from that +1 nearly as much as they'd benefit from something else. For some reason though it gets recommended with the green thumb for all classes and people feel they have to take it for some reason, even though it's a whole feat for just a +1 on Attack, which is not really meaningful mid or late game. It's not going to make up for low BAB.
>>538491285>Act IV of WotR>Angel Mythic Path>Just got to the Echo's lair and took out his guards, see him in the room ahead so pre-buff as normal then send MC forward in stealth>Pop the door open, hit him with Deadly Earth>He runs at me and I take a few pot shots as he regens >Another Deadly Earth, then my two blaster casters hit him with some ray magic to exploit his touch ac being shit>Dead>Enter room triumphantly after my ambush worked>Cutscene starts up, his corpse talks to me, and then a giant golem appears and the corpse teleports away to escapedid i just sequence break to kill him when I shouldn't or is the echo's power and survivability just THIS bullshit?
>>538529710The exp distribution's so fucked most of it doesn't even give appreciable gains. The basilisks in 6 alone are like 70% of the game's total exp. and the only reason they aren't more than that is because there are more basilisks below Candlekeep
>>538577710And?
>>538577594congrats anon you found one of the many glitches owlcat never fixed. he's supposed to escape there but they left him vulnerable with combat AI before you cross a point on the floor so if you hit him from range and never pass that trigger to start the cutscene you can kill him early and get almost an entire level worth of EXP from it.
convince me to play NWN Hordes of the Underdark, I wanna play it but don't wanna suffer caster early levels, but I also don't wanna play martial because you are basically forced into multiclassing >just use companions/summonsno I don't wanna suffer XP penalty
>>538578308It autolevels you to whatever the minimum level for the module is, 14 or something
>>538578489I mixed SoU with HotU mb
>>538578308I’m not helping you when you know the solution
>>538578772playing Cleric ?
>>538578308Nigga the xp penalty is super minor, who gives af.You're gonna end up around the same level anyway.
>>538546892The main character.
>>538580601Look at those fucking nerds on the right
>>538528407Most CRPGs have a better story than BG3
who else is high as fuck right now?
In Pathfinder: Kingmaker, your city's appearance changes based on your alignment.
I got Arcane Strike and Precise Shot at the same time and my Eldritch Archer's damage has changed from an average of 4 to an average of 12. Need to find a bow that adds dexterity to damage.
>>538582795what alignment is the leather club
>>538583094Anon…
>>538578308Play it or I'll punch you

It is amusing that spellcasters really suck at level 1 but become extremely powerful by level 10. You end up having so many good spells that you can't even cast them all in a single boss battle.
Archon-chan looking a bit like a certain half-elf.
>>538587326What's the fax machine button do?
>>538491285Halsin should polymorph into a wolf, not a bear, to help Shart overcome her fears
>>538590884I don't think that's how it works, anon.
