The rebel/for the masses companion in a story where it's not a key theme (aka, the game is not about toppling an empire that took over)

Pst, hey, you, yes you, anon. Come over here I need to tell you something. It's a secret Jimmy rules!
>>540659031I always read that as her trying to get me to kill that dude
>>540659031KWAB. You guys actually romanced this whore?
>>540659405she's built for crimelord so yeah
>>540657534>Fucking retard shows up to the party for crusade soldiers when he's done zero fightingGet out
>>540659308You can think whatever makes you happy, shereen
I'll stick with my eldar waifu. She might not put out for me, but at least she hasn't put out for anyone else ever.
>the helmet that reduces AP costs is all the way in act 4Why even bother adding it at that point? Melta weapons suck dick and need the help way earlier.
>>540659896Why are meltars so bad
Being a cuckschizo is somehow more cucked than actually getting cucked
>>540660003>shit range>low damage>high armor pen which is worthless>higher AP costYou are always better off using a flamer or shotgun. Its probably the worst weapon type in the game.
>>540654276PaladinsSeelah sucksHeinrix sucksCasavir sucksPallegina, who should suck, does not
>>540659846Its crazy how much shit she puts you through without any sort of payoff.
*sits in my cuck chair and watches cuckschizos fuck my general*
imagine darven but his writer threw owlcat another six digits for a cutscene where he fucks the pc's love interest
>>540661223>Are you sure?
>>540659501crime lord golddigs with fish girlhe has zero reason to go for a poor gypsy
>>540661030I preferred the on-demand mutual meditation sessions to the comical fade-to-black sex scenes that you'd get with the other girls as a reward for beating their romance
>>540661030Romance being a relationship you grind to get a single line implying your character fucked is why the romance in these games is so fucking shit
>>540662271Jae isn't poorShe has a huge network and gives you 2 PF just for letting her tag along.Banging Cassia is a ticket to getting bogged down in navis house politics, the crime lord doesn't need that kind of heat when he's trying to run a semi-legal business.
>>540662567Romance should lead to tangible stat benefits and extra heroic abilities when your sweetie is in a party with you, which gradually become more substantial as it progresses.Eg Yrlikek could learn to use human rifles (better than aeldari rubbish) and you could gain the Eldar equipment ability.Jae could get a free shot at anyone who melee attacks you, and vice versa.
Alright this weapon was worth the absolute bullshit fight required to get it.
>>540662567A romance is meant to culminate in a physical relationship or you may as well just be friends.
>>540662962You’re never going to be friends or have sex with your waifu
>>540662962Sex is not the "culmination"It's more like the beginning
>>540662576>Jae isn't poor>She has a huge network and gives you 2 PFlmao, literally the same amount spent feeding the envoy fish if you decide to properly cater their visitjae is literally nothing on the RT's radar
>>540659846>at least she hasn't put out for anyone elseDon't be too sure
>>540662784I just want some drama and actual character development, man.
>>540663328And how many PF does Cassia bring you?
>>540663520That enrages anons. They want a happy doormat
>>540663306Femoid take
>>540659697Why is here in game model way hotter than her portrait?
>2 ofLiterally makes you richer than 99% of the universe because 40k economics is retarded
>>540664076Her finest hour isn't scuffed. So basically all the PF I earned after recruiting her.
>>540662271criminal life, criminal waif (plus I already romanced cassia the first time I played)
>>540654276What is the best hotu-sou bridge module, guys?
Argenta should have been black and romanceable.
>>540667582maybe a crpg should let you create your own waifu (ie character gen them) like the player gens their character so they can fit anons' fetishes. have them be plot important too, like the bg3 dream guardian but not a fucking squid.
>>540667817Sounds fucking stupid because you couldn't incorporate their race/gender/appearance into their characterization or backstory and now your ugly midget dwarf with vitiligo and the tall space goth elf with big tits are somehow the same character
>>540668128Just make it like bg3 where race barley effects the story
>>540668128what?? i mean you generate your player character like normal, and then you generate your waifu
>>540668397Okay I generate my tall space goth elf with big tits waifu, what's her story? is she a proud elf? why is she a goth? is she slutty? she isn't any of these things because another player generated an ugly midget dwarf with vitiligo and that's the SAME CHARACTER ROLE
>>540668541She is a blank slate like tav from bg3, ans you can pick her alignment and background which will determine her personality like solasta.
>>540668541The game and story would be built around the waifu generation system obviously, have them right a couple different backstories/personalities the player can choose at the start and have it have some minor effects on interactions in the game
>>540668702write*
>>540668676You don't want a waifu, you want a barbie doll you can put on funny clothes on
all waifuniggers must hang
>>540669124Just like Icewind dale
>Leave Fort Joy for the XP, go back immediately>No longer able to save Emmie or tell Buddy about herFuck this gay world
Waifu creation with a cuck slider
>>540668128Depending on how the setting is, those traits would inconsequential. Something like Warhammer Fantasy would couldn't escape those, but for something like PF, Seelah may as well be an amorphous blob orphan from some corner of the world who joined an order of good after doing something bad.
>>540669510>range is from aerie to arueshalae
>>540667817I wish you fags would just play a porn game. Theres games that let you do this
>>540667817Need to stop calling people like this romancefags because you don’t even want that
Seriously what's the appeal of owlcat games? They are poorly balanced, have horrible stories that they openly admit they just write at the last minute, they dont even play test their games and they are always buggy as shit for the first 2-3 years on release. 90% of the post talking about owlcat games is just waifu wars are the waifus really that good?
>>540667817IWD, DOS1, Spellforce 3 to a lesser extent

>>540674351It's interesting you've turned "any relevant difficulty" into "hard." Why do you think you did that?
Pillars turn based mode coming
>>540671160dont remember iwd or spellforce 3 having this
>>540673680Uhhh Anon the games are really easy even on Unfair. You just stack buffs on your MC until they can't miss, deal 10times damage, and can't be hit. Early game is the only time things are even a bit challenging.
I'm about to play Divinity Original Sin 2
>>540674538Its interesting that you kept repeating "any relevant difficulty" so if they provided proof you could always move the goalpost and say 'oh you beat it on core? You're a noob try beating it on hard!" "oh you beat it on hard? you're a noob try beating it on unfair!"Not that beating the game on a "relevant difficulty" is relevant to the discussion at all. The game is buggy, repetitive and poorly designed on every mode.
>>540675217I noticed that you've dodged the question, Anon. Do you have any thoughts on that?

is kinetic knight a good class for kingmaker? first run
>>540679352Correct
>>540680120Not really as your MC, because you get a companion (Valerie) who slaps as Kinetic Knight
>>540680120You can make a better kinetic knight out of base Kineticist
>>540680120Have you played WotR or are you entirely new?imo kinetic shit is boring and you get a companion who's pretty cool story-wise but I find kineticist boring-tier personallyAsk me anything I'm in my cups and happy to help
God I can't wait for:- Swordhaven- Banquet for Fools- Solasta 2- (maybe that ancient greek game, Aletheia or something, it was cool dude stopped in ages ago)
>>540680276>>540680291I wanted to make my MC the Kinetic Knight yeah. And doesn't the base have a burn cost for using the blade?>>540680392I've finished Wrath a couple times so I'm not completely new to the ruleset. I'm pretty dead set on playing a KK for some reason though.
>>540680746>And doesn't the base have a burn cost for using the blade?Initially, yes, but as you level up the cost of using infusions gets reduced, including the kinetic blade. Kinetic Knight loses access to the metakinetic abilities which let you empower and maximize your blade's damage, and that can be a big deal.
>>540679740It doesn't do any damage to her though because she is a Sweetie Pie
>>540680746You can run a perfectly fine MC as a kinetic knightIt’s just that Valerie’s built as a pure fighter tank with like 21 base Con and 12 strength, so a KK build makes sense for herIf you aren’t gonna use Valerie, then yeah KK works perfectly fine for an MC. Your DLC companions are Kineticists too, but they’re more the “sit back and evaporate everything” type of kineticists
>>540680905>>540681060>Kinetic Knight loses access to the metakinetic abilities which let you empower and maximize your blade's damageNow that is some bullshit. I might go base and just blast until I can transition into using the blade. Thank you anons.
>>540680021>actually got me excited for a second Not cool anon
>>540680746Well then have fun. More importantly going into KM is:- you will need Blind Fight, somewhere around level 5ish? - Some possible bullshit about missing Jubilost. I don't know how to help here without spoiling. If you end up at a river crossing before some gnomes, go back. Err. Uhh. It sucks to miss him but I'm failing at how to say it.- If it's in your RP, try to save the troll dude, he can be an advisor.- If you come across a place where people died in horror, well...- If there's crazy high traps maybe come back later- Torches can hit swarms, along with AoE and thrown acid/etc

Best turn based CRPG?
>>540682150Tabletop. This is the reason for turns, you can't just shout out everything going on.Computers can handle that so we've seen some good iteration on that, mostly only from Pillars 1 and 2. But if you're mostly interested in turns, then I'd direct you to playing tabletop with other people.
>>540682150BG3*does idle animation until it's my turn to post again*
I unironically think that a Vampire the Masquerade in WOTR format would be way way way better than whatever the fuck Bloodline 2 is

>>540654276You didn't beat the game.
>>540671928NTA, and I disagree with his bad faith question and premise, I'm generally one of the people arguing in Owlcat's favor since I've loved all three of their games, but let us be honest and not pretend that owlcat's games have a good difficulty system. It's one of the flaws I would say. There's no meaningful difference between Core and the hardest difficulty in wotr, because the hardest difficulty in wotr just requires you to cast a few buffs before you go in, and the middle difficiulties don't require that. It's the same enemies in the same positions using the same spells and abilities, they're just inflated AC and DC and save numbers in higher difficulties. So you have to cast various things on yourself to overcome spell resistance or whatever the situation demands. But it's not even like you need to be smart and do homework to be good at the game either, since the game has an inspect feature that will tell you what you need to cast on yourself....Again, I'm a huge owlcat simp and I've preordered all their games and I'm doing the same with Dark Heresy, I'm just chiming in because I disagree with the premise that difficulty means anything in owlcat games.In contrast, in bg3 for example, enemies have different items in their inventories and different spells on their spell list in Tactician mode, and Honor mode takes it another step and gives the bosses throughout the game lair actions which are unique reactions to specific events (killing their summons, using magic, using a certain element on them, adding or subtracting damage resistance, etc) that are unique to those difficulty levels and actually meaningfully change the encounter and what you have to do as a player.

Dark Heresy will flop if Owlcat doesn't add at least 2 attractive female companions. The current lineup is bland and not pleasing to the eye of the male gamer which is the main customer.

Temple of elemental evil is overrated boomer crap, Wrath is a much better implementation of 3.5e
In a just world we would have gotten more games in the style of ToEE from troika. The game has a great base but they just chose a pretty boring module to adapt and its troika so of course its buggy af.
>>540689461Playable Cartomancer and Oracle classes. Not necessarily from Pathfinder tabletop implementations.
>>540693206Check Owlcat's own polls, the vast majority think romance is important in a crpg, cope. You are the minority anti-romancefag
>>540687598Only sorceress sounds cool. The rest is unacceptable.
>>540697883THVTHNVKE bg3 has shown other crpg studios the way.
>>540698002For every 1 person who doesn't care about romance there are 6 that do.
Arue is hotter than any BG3 dork.Mishulin's Demongirl fetish literally carries Owlcat's Romances.
This whole thing is stupid, on both sides. Romances are nice and most people agree they're fun, so obviously saying they're bad is not true. But they should just be icing on the cake of an already good game, you have a long list of more important things to do to make a good game before you should be focusing on romances. The characters have to be actually interesting characters or else a romance is just a cheap checkbox. Veilguard had this issue for example. It's really unfortunate that this has become a forefront topic of crpg discussion when it always should have been just a nice cherry on top feature.I actually think Sawyer was correct when he said that if you do it, it should be done right. I also think that he was correct when he said that romance can be good, people just should avoid making it another quest where you "win". These are not original thoughts and he's mostly stating the obvious, he's just a prominent figure who has said them so he's brought up a lot on this topic.I actually think Kibellah was pretty well done. Her romance is not just selecting options, it actually checks your character's alignment and how you handle certain quests. She has several romance endings that are sidegrades, not failures and "win" states. Her non-romanced character is fine and coherent, and her non-romance endings are fine and coherent. Her romance actually has some messed up parts and you can easily accidentally do things that are not actaully good for her as a person, which is interesting and unique. She has a lot of what makes a good videogame romance. Branching paths, not just based on dialogue, can fail easily, but also not every ending is just a fail or success.I'd like to see more romances that are integrated into the plot of the game, have more branching paths, and check to make sure the player is paying attention and not just selecting the overtly romance-y choices. In other words, realistic.
Waifu idea, big titty mommy gf.
People don't hate romance. They hate romancefags.
>>540676730Neither does owlshart
>>540698562>Sawyer was correct when he said that if you do it, it should be done right. I also think that he was correct when he said that romance can be good, people just should avoid making it another quest where you "win".I don't dislike Sawyer as much as many here seem to but I think it depends what he means by doing a romance well.I'd rather a romance where its another quest where you "win" over a romance that's phoned in, unsatisfying or jarringly wrtten.I think Mass Effect did romances somewhat decently even if they're a little heavy handed on the male romance fantasy. I liked the Kibellah stuff too but found Cassia and Yrliet a little dull in the romance aspect. Wendaug was fun but her romantic scenes felt like she slipped on a circlet of intellect or something because the writing changed, I don't think Wendaug was a good romance but it wasn't bad either. I never finished Arue or Camellia's and I didn't do any romances in Kingmaker (though tried and screwed up romancing Nyrissa).BG2 romances were only good because it was one of the first times we saw them, but in retrospect they're a little lacking. Its more like just picking your favorite elf and continuing on your way in that one.Dragon Age's romance would work better if it were only Morrigan and then tying her even more deeply into the main story of each one, but also erasing Inquisition and Veilguard from this timeline.I don't remember KotOR's romances well enough to opine on them.
>>540698354Democracy has failed.
wasteland 3 has proven you dont need romance.

For Varnhold's Lot in Kingmaker, do you make a waifu for Varn or do you make a bro?
>>540701706I make a bro. Varn is too cringe.
>>540701854Yeah I've never done this DLC before but I feel like making him a waifu MC would be a bit awkward.
>>540702116I'm one of the few who liked the DLC quite a lot. It's a nice succinct adventure
-PoE-WotR-BG3the trio of crpgs that matter. If you played these you can already participate in 90% of crpg discussions
>>540700582>i liked the romance where a servitor remained a servitorThat's now how Kibellah's romance ends
>>540699793>BG2 romances were only good because it was one of the first times we saw them, but in retrospect they're a little lacking. Its more like just picking your favorite elf and continuing on your way in that one.Jaheira has the single most complicated romance in RPG history tf are you smoking?
>>540699793>found Cassia and Yrliet a little dull in the romance aspect.Agreed. Cassia is too much of the same thing, for me. Playing along with her little courtship games.Yrliet's romance is barely there, and I'm not talking about sex or lack thereof. You start out talking to her a bit, but that just doesn't go anywhere then the next thing you know she's wanting to get soul-bonded.
>>540701703It's thousands of people echoing the same opinion on multiple platforms
>>540702813They are all wrong and can be disregarded.
>>540702885basedtotal midwit death
People only like the RT romances because the romance music is epic and tricks you.
>>540699793>KotOR's romancesI only did the girl ones. They go like thisBastila>Space HermioneHandmaiden>You beat the shit out of her until she loves youVisas Marr>You fight her to a standstill in a lightsaber duel and she immediately falls in love with you to the extent that her alignment flips
>>540703129>+3 conimagine
>>540702658It's very long but hardly complicated.
>>540703204I can't remember if Mira has a romance or not
>>540702979does anybody like RT romances? no one likes yrliet, nobody talks about jae, everyone is pissed you can't romance argenta, and cassia is used as cope. I've never seen someone have an unquestionably positive opinion on RT romances that wasn't a response to someone hating on them, which is just classic 4chan contrarianism.
>>540703297The harper trial alone puts it above any other romance.>no don't worry I'll be back in a week :)>hidden 3 day timer startsEven Aerie has the love triangle.
>>540703320I must be the only guy who likes Jae's romance. It was fun and interesting.I expected to like Yrliet's because it started well talking about interesting topics, but got bogged down in Crudarach shit and didn't really develop.
>>540703320Femcels won bigly with rt romances, but femcels always win. Except in kingmaker
>>540703462she holds orgies on your ship and doesn't even invite you dude. I like her as a shady jester but no way I'd romance her.>>540703540that's true. I don't pay much attention to chick-centered romances and owlcat become bigger faggots every game so I guess femcels got an upshot.
>>540703453>not immediately chasing after the love interest who has been arbitrarily removed from the groupRomance so complicated you need a guide for dummies
>>540703658and yet still more complex than any other RPG romance. face it, bioware did it best. shame they died over a decade ago.
>>540703453What happens after three days? Does she cheat on you with a bear?
I do agree that romance should more than "do this questline or pick these dialogue options until you win" but long or overly complex romances aren't much of a solution either. Nobody wants to get to the end of a 40+ hour rpg and realize they should have picked X dialogue option at the semen factory when your love interest asked if she could go for a swim.
>>540703308I never realized how much of a cougar she looks like
You guys are so cringe sometimes.Visas's romance is kino because you bond over your similar intense wounds you both bear. You were cut off from the force after the intense dark side energy almost killed you at Malachor, and her homeworld was devoured by Nihilus while she was witness to the whole thing and then he enslaved her. When you meditate together, you both feel slightly less pain, because you get each other. It's very sweet in a tragic way and it was almost two decades before Yrliet said a similar line. So I don't want to see any of you numbskulls not giving it credit.Kibellah's romance is also pretty nuanced. It deals with sense of self and it's very easy for the payer to choose unhealthy choices for her under the mistake to just choosing things that seem like they advance the romance. She's been a puppet literally her entire life and it's up to you to try to encourage a person to be born out of the puppet or keep her that way, or the third option of make it even worse. Not all of these are obvious and it even depends on how you handle certain quests. It's actually really well done both mechanically and narratively. If you think she's "just a servitor" then you unironically failed the media literacy test, and it's a skill issue.>>540703308She does not. She says you're old if you're a guy and she says she's straight if you're a female. I had a crush on her when I was 14 playing kotor2 for the first time. She says her idea of a romance is to capture a target and leave them handcuffed in a storage closet and starve them for 3 days to see if they're willing to talk. This was one of my formative years first crushes.
>>540703320>does anybody like RT romancesNot even that many posts ago there were anons praising Kibellah's romance.
>>540698562Sawyer probably personally vetoed the Ydwin romance. His argument might be sound on the surface, but he is very much your enemy. Remember that.
Did PoE2 have romances? I remember some flirty options with Xoti but I dunno if they went anywhere, I got bored and stopped playing.
>>540704042>When you meditate together, you both feel slightly less pain, because you get each otherStopped reading there, this gave me Yrliet vibes and that makes me REALLY mad
>>540704054ima be real with you, I stopped paying attention to RT long before that DLC came out so I can't speak on that ones actual quality, but you're right. that one is the only one that gets praised without qualifiers. I would criticize it for being a DLC romance but honestly Kingmaker is in the same position. I really fucking hate owlcats faggot tendencies desu. they get worse with each game.
>>540704179Nah, Visas is good. Yrliturd is trash
>>540703974She has Karen hair
>>540699793>heavy handed on the male romance fantasyThere's so little pushback on Mass Effect's romances in general it may very well be a case study in doing them well.
>>540704179Visas the best cerebral waifu in vidya. Yrliet is like the chink knock-off.
>>540704154Not in the way most players understand the term
Yrliturd whines constantly. >boo hoo I miss Crudarach :( Weren't you just telling me how stifling and ossified it was? Visas just gets on with the job, taking only a moment for herself when you come across her old prison quarters.
>>540704280Mass Effect is a space opera. Grandiosity is expect and that includes in the romance. It goes both ways since Garrus is great with femshep.
>>540704356It's exactly the same as most rpg romances
>>540704230>that one is the only one that gets praised without qualifiers>incels praise a romance where your waifu does what you tell her, has no personality of your own, and literally calls you anon-samaWow, who could have ever imagined! It's the worst "romance" and character owltards ever written. Anyone who praises it in any way whatsoever immediately betrays their pathetic nature
>>540704440mishi pls
the only romance Kotor 2 needed was Atris, shame Obsidian are gay
>>540704540Shitris was a retard
>>540704280>There's so little pushback from the target audienceYou don't saySawyer would hate the idea of all these wildly different space babes falling for Shepard because he's just that special as the alpha male of the universe
>>540704609And retarded girls are cute. Exile cock/pussy could have fixed her.
>>540704440Yeah you didn't play it. That's not how it goes.
>>540704673Cope, incel
>>540704673>Anon-samaaaaaaa, this is the most important moment of my life! Tell me what to do, onegaishimasu!>you should kill yourself!>You're right, anon-sama, I should>actually does itYou're right she clearly has a personality and her own thoughts on everything. How could have been so wrong
>>540408587>ctrl+f "romance">58 results>>540654276>ctrl+f "romance">82 resultsYou guys probably listen to Taylor Swift or Adele
>>540704440Nearly everyone I've seen who says this is either a troon or a women without fail. They will also vehemently defend Marz as the best romance in the game.
>>540662878did you get 10 damage added to your total after DR because of difficulty?i've never seen that before. which difficulty?
>>540704179You need help

can you actually fuck an eldar and have babies
>>540704070Any proof or is this just one of your schizo delusions?That post was nearly 20 years ago and you're still mindbroken over it.
>>540705280It's never been done before
>>540705280There used to be half-eldar, which is a definitive yes, however the piece of media they appeared in was an older edition of the ttrpg which has not been acknowledged by GW for quite some time and has been officially replaced by other games that have chosen to not feature half-eldar, which is also kind of a hint that they're no longer canon. Which means no.So the answer is....maybe. Welcome to Warhammer 40k lore continuity.
>>540705139Kibbles has a good amount of dyke fanart The only place I've ever seen seethe about her is her dedicated autist here
>>540705409Kibbles looks like she eats pussy like it's her last meal, not surprised she has dyke fans
>>540705334that's... an answer to a different question.>>540705408surely there's some lore about their anatomy, or some rich provincial lord tried to knock up his xenos pet
Why do so many people here have strong opinions about shit they haven't readWhy don't you play games instead of shitpost
>>540704609Only because she was sexually frustrated due to poor Shitsidian programming
>>540705534>Thomas Hildern.jpg
I hope we actually get a corruption mechanic this time. It was a part of the tabletop, and is a decent way to mechanically gaige your inclination towards a heretical path
>>540705624kys radical scum
>>540705505Sure, one of them is even statted in the original 1980's sourcebooks. But this topic is a "GW hasn't said a single word about it in two decades" situation so we don't know the answer under current lore. The original sourcebooks are contradicted many times and are essentially de-canonized.
>>540705624Even if we do, Owlsharts being owlsharts they're gonna botch it anyway, so i don't have high hopes. In fact the more interviews about the game I see the less hope I have for it. Retards have clearly learnt nothing from their previous failures and are just shoving that money cake in their mouth without even trying to chew now
>>540705280In first edition it was possible but infrequent. It's never been mentioned since, but neither has it been officially ruled out.
>>540705694You have no idea how corruption even works, retard. It has nothing to do with being radical and puritan. It's just something you get while dealing with shit. Killed a demon? Congrats, you get corruption just for witnessing it manifest. Destroyed a magical artfact? Lol, lmao, even. Here's 2 corruption points for you anyway. Stopped a warp ritual? Oh you better believe it's gonna be corruption points galore.
>>540705505>surely there's some lore about their anatomyIn the Xenology book there was the text of an imperial autopsy of a male eldar, genitals were described as unremarkable (ie appeared human), and overall the internal anatomy appeared vaguely similar to human but with significant differences. The brain was denser and larger. Digestion was strange and appeared to rely on some warp process. In particular for females to carry a pregnancy to term they appeared to require several infusions of sperm from the male, at precise stages in the pregnancy.
>>540705280You can fuck anything.No.
>>540706007>You can fuck anything.I choose you then.
>taking breaks to dump your load into your xenos pet (she requires frequent usage to carry the baby to term)
>>540705898>Congrats, you get corruption just for witnessing it manifest. Destroyed a magical artfact? Lol, lmao, even. Here's 2 corruption pointsThat's even what Jimmy says in RT. Just doing the shit he does is leaving mark on his soul
>>540706032By "you" I didn't mena you specifically. If you could actually fuck anyone you wouldn't be sitting here writing pathetic passages about muh waifus
>>540706064>Elantach remember you have to inseminate me again at 7 o'clock>Do you want me to tell you when it's 7 o'clock*oh no not again* no that's ok, sweetheart, Abelard will remind me
>>540705898that's fine, i'll just breathe some incense and hang out in the cloister for a bit. nbd
>>540705913Reading that they sound really strange inside>lung analoguesThey don't even have proper lungs. You know birds don't have lungs like us either? I bet hugging an eldar would be like holding a bird, all rigid and non-cuddly.
>>540706128Too late. Bend over and pucker up.
>>540706352Yeah, that's pretty much all you're capabale of - shitposting
>>540706210Babe, you're gonna make me explode like an Aeldari craftworld
doing the meditation with the xenos shouldn't lock you out of romances with the cassia or the other girls.it's like saying that if you have a dog you can't get married. what?
>>540706458ironic
>>540706469Yes, yrliturd and all her content is badly written. It's nothing new
>>540706469>Sorry Kibbi, I can't hang out tonight, I already made plans to merge my soul with Yrliet and spend hour after hour exploring each other's very essence in utmost intimacyI don't get it either
>>540706469>I swear, there's nothing physical going on between me and her>Oh really, Shereen. You don't expect me to believe you spend all that time with that xenos female without ANYTHING happening? >Why would you hang around with her then

is that quest in act 4 when you help Jae kill her ex a romance only thing
Where's the female DElder companion lolcat?WHERE IS SHE???
>>540707142He has none. Just another incel seething that another imaginary character wasn't itnerested in what was between his legs. Just like irl
>>540707237why is there a sad, tiny guardsman

>>540707153how can you be immersed in a game where you play an incel?it's not chess or counterstrike, you're playing roles
>>540707346That's just one of the deldar lady's collectible figurines.
>>540707241i honestly didn't read what you fags were "arguing" about. only the one post i replied to.could care less about some argument about crpg romance. the whole concept is scuffed anyway.

>>540707558try again, this time use a brain cell or two to form a coherent sentence, if you can
>>540707612you still don't get it.it's about how uncanny it feels to play as a guy who is surrounded by chicks and is getting no play.doesn't it feel fucking weird to you? to have 6 girls in your camp but sleep alone?
>>540707842>you still don't get it.Neither do you apparently. Keep seething and crying over tfw no imaginary sex
Are the kotr games worth playing nowadays? I remember getting one of them when I was a kid and excited to play it but my shit ass computer couldn't run it lol
>>540708280yeah they're fun. the first game has some issues with modern OS's but nothing a little googling can't fix.

>>540707649Joshua Eric Sawyer (born October 18, 1975), more commonly known and credited as Josh Sawyer, J.E. Sawyer, or JSawyer, is an American video game designer, known for his work on role-playing video games. In a post from nearly 20 years ago, he stated that he no longer felt comfortable with how romance is written in CRPGs, which has been in line with the conspicuous lack of expected romances in games in which he had a major involvement, including Neverwinter Nights 2, Fallout: New Vegas and its DLCs, Pillars of Eternity, and Pillars of Eternity: Deadfire, even though that was, and still is, industry standard. In particular, the character of Ydwin (mentioned above) in Deadfire was not romanceable, despite the likelihood that she'd have become a fan-favorite. Sawyer's stance on romances in CRPGs has been echoed in multiple interviews and videos since, where he candidly admitted at times to no longer having a grasp on the pulse of the industry, and what made the romances in the critically acclaimed Baldur's Gate 3 so popular.
>>540707045Jokes on you I'm here to kill, not to fuck.
>>540708280I wouldn't know, because I played them when they first released. I remember having a lot of fun with them, but don't know how well they'd hold up now. The graphics certianly don't. Plus the second game, while having inifnitely more interesting plot and companions is woefully buggy and unfinished, as is obsidian tradition. Play at your own risk
Yrliet spotted in another board
Expeditions Rome is on sale, would you recommend it? Is it long? Is it difficult?
>>540709759unfortunately, she looks the least wholesome of them all. which board btw
>>540710942/tg/ - Traditional Games
>>540710927Yes. No. Dunno, i'm a pussy that played it on normal
>>540708280The gameplay is super shallow but its a fun sci fi adventure and the story in 2 is very good.I don't even really care for star wars but still enjoyed it. Not really something I'd replay though because of the gameplay.
Why was this ever a thing?
>>540712884No idea, but it gave the most broken cape in the game and some of the hardest fights too if you do it right away
>ask what i need when going to blackwater since it's apparently annoying as hell>"oh you just need some will magic">go to blackwater>everyone is literally unkillable unless you have an Adamantine weapon
>>540713414You can kill them fine if you attack them with lightning. They even drop lightening weapons for you. Or you can coup-de-grace them while they're down. The place was far more cancerous when it was first released since everyone there was also immune to lightening. They then changed it after a lot of whining
>>540713738>You can kill them fine if you attack them with lightning. They even drop lightening weapons for you.I tried using lightning spells, but what did it do? Jackshite.
>>540712884It is called collab, you know what collab is, right?
There's a reason why everyone picks Shadowheart and Morrigan, does mental gymnastics for Camellia, and begs for ArgentaWhite human woman/elf/half-elf just sells
>>540713927That's a lie. You use lighening on them, then they die normally.
>>540715037It is not. I used a spell with electricity damage and it did not kill them.
>>540715060Have you considered that you still need to lower their health to 0?
>>540715158I did use it when they were at zero health, the bar was completely gone.
>>540715250Guess you have a unique version of the game that doesn't work same way it does for everybody else
>>540715060>>540713927Electricity strips them of their regen ability. They do not automatically die in one hit because you used lightning But you can just kill them normally instead, it is just more of a slog that way
>>540708280Yeah they're goodFor Kotor 2 get the REstored Content mod, it makes it a fair bit better.DON'T get the Droid Planet mod. This is really boring and amateurish and inserted in such a way that you have no choice but to go through it. It's separate from the restored content mod but they are sometimes bundled together so watch out.
>>540714060But owlcat doesn't own pathfinder. How can they agree to collab?
I like Kibellah but she sounds better when she isn't being an edgy tryhard whispering all the time.
is this buff a bug? i'm not anywhere near drezen
>>540719671It works on all captured territories. That said: I believe fast healing only works if you repair the bell in the zone where Arue lures you into to kill some Hag.
>>540713414The game fucking throws weapons at you that'll kill them now
>>5407134141. you are given a lightning weapon right away2. zap or whatever cantrip works fine3. coup de grace also fine4. you are a literal dum-dum ding-dong
alright bros I couldn't pull the trigger for Rogue Trader on the steam store but I pirated it and about to head in, created a Commisar and I picked the origins whatever seemed approapriate but didnt minmaxis it even relevant for normal difficulty? what is the best noob starting class? can psykers do giga damage? cause i'd like to try that out
>>540722446nothing matters for normal difficulty, you'll be curbstomping everything soon enough. One round combat where enemies don't get a chance.Also enjoy the endless dead-horse-beating that 40k has to offer you. You did the right thing in pirating it, "mon-keigh" (That's space-elf for "monkey" btw)

>>540726982This honestly looks like a porn game
>>540722446every "class" can do giga damage, I feel like Psykers just have more diversity in how you build them compared too the rest

Holy shit blackwater is legitimately unplayableNot even because of the fuck you demons with 50 AC, no, but because of the absolutely fucking ridiculous lag; Why the FUCK does it lag SO FUCKING MUCH there
>>540734761Kibbles only pretends to care about big E because she's literally brainwashed, she wants unity with the RTSolomorne essentially thinks the administratum and arbites are corrupt and failry incompetent and would rather enforce your own laws 'Lex Koronus'
I hear Kibbles breaks up with you if you go dogma? Is that true?
>>540736008not necessarily, but it is an outcome
>>540659846Your pure elf waifu ends up fucking Marzipan in his Corsair ending or fucking off with him to clown college. She's not asexual she's so racist she will not touch you.
>>540726592Wonder if we will be treated to cringe "anal with Argenta" posts on his reddit
>>540736008Yeah, Kibbles romance needs you to treat her as a person, not a weapon, or else she decides she cannot love you more than her purpose.
>>540736528this is how anons talk about black women but then cry when the superior lifeform does it to them
I barely remember any ending slides I've ever gotten, but at the same time I like that they're there.Its always more about the journey for me. I think this is why I never cared a lot about the Mass Effect endings thing being phoned in colors too.That said the only time I ever felt excited to read ending slides was in New Vegas.
How many more hours do I have left in RT if I'm currently at the Siege mission (with all available side quests complete)?

what's the point of all the classes that give you DR when every enemy in the game is just going to bypass it anyway? looking at Rageshaper and you lose the WIS to AC for DR on top of the AC penalties you already get when you go into your devastating form.
>>540737992>That said the only time I ever felt excited to read ending slides was in New Vegas.Wasteland 3 is a whole song, with different verses depending on what you did, it's fucking great, only time I've cared about ending material really
>>540732098imagine the millenial bucks you make this garbage but rated M and slap a romance on it
>>540739329Basically the Pokemon Special manga.
>>540738645I don't. If there is something I seethe about it's the decision to add xenos romances. They can fuck off together for all I care.
>>5407380943-8 maybethere is not much to do after that besides power through the necrons
>>540739765But aren't you excited for hot Kroot action in owlcat's new game?
>>540738434they leave in chapter 4 then show up just before the very last boss fight if they're still alive
>>540736528>she's so racist she will not touch yoCrazy how the RT will stay by her side even after she betrays them, assist in saving her people and even can talk her out of killing one of her farseers but still gets seen as an animal. Meanwhile Marz is part of the cohort that tortured and wiped out her craftworld and he gets a pass. Its a shame we cannot access that decay weapon that killed her craftworld, would be real nice to drop in Commoragh or against that Eldar invasion in the future.
>finish blackwater>zero good loot>zero good gear>zero cool moments>zero FPS>enemies with 50 AC only give like 200 exp, finishing the quest is only 800Did the person who made this area have a lobotomy or something?
>>540741663Damn. I was planning to tell Argenta to fuck off after she reveals she killed Mort but maybe I'll keep her around just to end her later on. >>540741954It was a backer quest made by a fucking sperg. You're lucky you aren't playing it on release like I did.
I wish they cut Jae and gave us the daemonette instead
I wonder if there will be cool romances in VTMB2
Remember when Bioware had three generals on /vg/?
>>540743738That will be larian when their next 2 games come out. They truly are bioware 2.0
Can you finish Honor Mode in Bg3 by playing normally and not cheesing every encounter? I mean stuff like actually talking with bosses and not setting up before the fight etc
>>540744657>>>/vg/bgg/
>>540744657No, it's never been done beforeYou HAVE to cheese and cheat in one of the easier RPGs
>>540744657yes, but you'd be making it much harder for yourself
>>540741821>Marzi gets a passHe's got an Aeldari peepee you mon-keigh just wouldn't understand
if you can't beat an rpg with 4 fighters the game's balance is whack
>>540745149>This general is dedicated to the discussion of computer role playing games such as:Arcanum, Baldur's Gate,
>>540744657its pretty easy game. i did honor mode mp, last act one dude i was just using two dudes while i fucked off
>>540741821>that decay weaponIsn't that the Eschatos that you get if you complete Pasqal's quest?
>>540741596I fucking hope every idiot Kroot romancer has so discover that they reproduce via backrub and that it's all their going to get.
>>540746765What about beakjob?
>>540741821>he gets a pass90% murder him erm? While Yrliet has the most retarded simps. Don't care if Marz's basic, he's still better than whatever schizophrenia Yrliet has.
>>540741954Blackwater is a build test. You don't go there if you "aren't ready" or simply don't care.Lich and Demon just weirds it. Yes you can lvl17 in act 3.Aeon needs a team with Create Greater Undead Spammer to kill it as easily.Have no idea about other mythics."Darkness" Doggy is a much better tester imo.
>>540746937I think the person you are responding to implicates that Yrliet gives Marzi a pass. As in, sure he abducted her, did torture shit so she testified at his retarded trial, did Drukhari shit on the ship, but then they fuck off as Corsairs and she's like hmmmm I'm going to let him smash. The RT on the contrary runs her Crudarach errands, forgives her, saves her ass and she won't even hug. Romancing Yrliet really is the ultimate cuck fantasy.
>>540746765still more action than with loliet
>>540747442Yrliet always bats for Marz. Like when he's having his first sperg out on the ship. Maybe you got a point...
>>540747442What else were you expecting from an Owlcat game?
>want to go heretic>feel bad corrupting KibblesAnyone else like this? Do you still need to pick the synchro options to stop her breaking up with you?
>>540741821No rational person would keep Yrliet or Marazhai in their party. That would be like if Osama Bin Laden became a cabinet member in the US federal government.
>>540747940Marzi even literally spells it out for you during some rant when he abducts you that goes something like "we use mon-keigh when it suits us but when we really need something we turn to our own kin, like Yrliet did."She uses you, but the day she needs to get laid it's not the RT's door she will knock on.
>>540748382Anon, I... I've got bad news for you.
>>540726592
>>540741954Ironically the Numerian Greatsword is pretty good on Nenio if you dip Titan Fighter so you can dual wield it with the Quarterstaff of the Warmage for an extra +2 to spell DC.
>>540750769ironically? learn to speak english you zoomer mutt
>>540742532Sadly, no one intelligent exists in Owlcat to make better character design decisions, especially to help fill out heretic playthroughs.
>>540748382>No rational personBut that's my point. The RT is doing all this shit that is frankly egregious and would only be done if they actually care about Yrilet and she still finds you sickening. Not to mention she fucks off and leaves you to die alone whilst searching for a spirit stone. >>540749020Funnily enough Marz actually cares more about the RT than Yrilet does. IIrc he has ending where he sticks by you even when you go full chaos even though he know's he's gonna get fucked long term. This is also the second time Owlcat have added a buckbreaking romance option which makes me think someone on the team has a fetish. Maybe next time it can be a female companion for once.
shave your perm, stop speaking hispanic ebonics, and hop off the owlslop
Owlcat should make a Dresden Files game, that seems like the type of setting they could work well in.
>>540745149Yeah fuck off! This is not /bgg/ it's the romance general>109 results
>owlcat should make a mage the ascension game but worse
>>540751321>Marz cares more about the RT than Yrliet does because he's willing to let himself be consumed by heretic demon RTTbf Yrliet lets her spirit stone get smashed to make sure her greatgreatgrandparents don't squash your soul during the ritual, meaning she will get devoured by Slaanesh, for you. Yeah she doesn't put out but she does care in her own autistic way.
>>540751321His true love romance ending has him seeing you as a equal too
>>540749741
Dark heresy will have a sororitas romance.
>>540752975Shes a hag so not a virgin or cant have your babies.
>>540752810Honestly that shit just shows that Raszard never really cared for her as a character. Watch him butcher Argenta as she's made to fit his fantasies.
>>540752975What do we think about writing a character/romance solely because market indicators suggest it will help sell the game? Isn't that kind of soulless?
>>540705717Father was a elf btw. Human women x elf men forever.
>>540753619Owlcat only makes licensed games they don't make their own orginal IPs they have always been soulless.
crpgg challenge: talk about a crpg that isn't owlcat-related
>>540753619Sister romance is the main thing people want. GW doesn't want it apparently so im not sure if Owlcat is baiting.
>>540753998Name a modern crpg that isn't Owlcat?
>>540752496>she will get devoured by SlaaneshExcept she spends all her time searching for a spirit stone to the extent where you spend the vast majority of your life alone. Its more akin to sacrificing your wallet to save your dog's life rather any actual romantic care.>ritualThe ritual isn't solely for you though is it? She knows her previous craftworld got one shot by monkeigh so telling them to not start going nuclear is also to her benefit as well. Its fucking gay how Owlcat didn't account for Nomos in the ending slides. Sure these worthless Eldar craftworld fucks really can fight a Void Dragon Shard along with my fleet. Miss me with that bullshit.>she doesn't put outDoesn't she explicitly state she can't even stand any physical contact including a mere hug? Meanwhile Marz knows he will die horribly and still sticks by your side. >>540752558Much like Sosiel this faggot would have been the most popular romance in the game if they had just been girls.
>>540741954Stormlord gauntlents are pretty great for free conversion and good lightning spells.Numerian greatsword is pretty good.There is also at least one good helmet.The total loot you get amounts to a shitton of gold at the very least
>>540753619complaining about that at this point with owlcat of all devs is laughable
when are we getting another crpg of similar scale to bg3
Rank the Class/Stronghold quests for BG2.Bard Playhouser>Mage Sphere>Fighter Keep> Cleric Duties>Paladin Duties>Thief Duties>Ranger whatever
>>540754197Wasteland 3
>>540754918They're all pretty shit honestly
>>540753858Not only that but they always write them using an existing campaign manual as a guide. RT is the one they stepped the most away from that but even there they just copied all the locations and major npcs out of the RT ttrpg rulebook.
>>540754753swen's space gamemaybe pillars 3 if the indians give sawyer enough money
>>540754982Is there dolly kissing?
>>540754753>>540754471>>540754197you need to play more than 5 rpgs to post here.>>540754004>>540753521>>540752975kys
rpgs I played:bg1 bg2 nwn bg3can I post here
What's going to bomb harder?Shitlasta 2The: flopanse Failurelines 2
Why do the random dragon map encounters give you nothing in solasta? A dragon should atleast drop minot loot.
Avowed flopped you lost
>>540755938bloodlines 2
Speaking of wasteland 3 dark heresy literally just copied and pasted their targeted shot UI and abilities.
You guys think the 1.5 patch for Rogue Trader is gonna be good? Will pyromancer finally be dethroned?
lads i'm really struggling through Kingmaker Act 2Do all of these women telling me I have to visit them solo actually mean 'solo' or can I take my party there then walkbecause I am not trying to fight trolls solo
>>540756490I noticed a lot of UI similarities in RT to Wasteland 3.
Are shields for pussies or are they cool?
There are too many classes and subclasses in WOTR and the constant dipping is not making me appreciate the original unit identity and unit feel
>>540757704Is using soap and bathing regularly for homosexuals or will staying dirty please the maidens?
>>540757825>the constant dippingyeah it really sucks how they force you to do that
>>540708280no, theyre kinda bad, its basically a worse version of dragon age and dragon age is already slop tier
>wasteland 3 but with magicI will now buy dark heresy
Companion idea: Aasimar, but evil
companion idea: a rapist, but lawful
>>540759378Daeran bro
Companion idea: a succubus but chaste
companion idea: a vampire, but they subsist on semen
>>540761170Sounds like you want a MGE crpg.
ooh mmy virgin succubus!!
>>540716459I imagine the games were good for the TT sales desu. I had never heard of pathfinder until playing them.
I mean sure Owlcat's Pathfinder games aren't "bad" but for the price and time investment they require, would I play them again? HELL NOOOO
>>540764439>priceOwlcat almost gives it away
>>540757704block fire (preferably from a dragon) with a shield and watch yonder maidens FLOCK
>>540719127You mean in combat? Yes, her combat barks are good. It's the rest of her voice acting that is utter trash. Goes for all characters imho. Even those who sounds fine in dialogue (like Abelard or Jimmy) sound infinitely better in comabt
>>540738251This faggot shit is only happening because anon started flirting with sosiel like a faggot. Gale is an actual rapist that stalks you regardless of your input
how to make RT combat fun
>>540764439Why pay for something that you can get for free?
>>540758281>furry gang>clown gang>psycho retards gangChecks out
RPGs where you reproduce?
>>540767329eww, dwarfs are disgusting
For Marazhai to be alive for Yrliet to sleep with him centuries in the future, that means that you personally have gone out of your way to keep him alive when everyone (including Yrliet) wanted him dead, and babysit his tantrums, and take care of all his problems for himYrliet is just following your example>Elantach gave Marazhai another chance, even though he suffered at the Dark One's hands far more than I ever did>Maybe I should follow Elantach's example of forgiveness?>Marazhai is quite tall isn't he
>>540767912Don't why he didn't just make dwarf romance options racist who only date dwarves if that's his problem.
>>540767912>short, stocky and hairy>look like 14yo girls
>>540747940Yeah she does a little bit doesn't sheIt's not her fault, it's the Marazhai writer making him a special boy that everyone is patient with
>Yrlietards blaming Marz nowUmm did you miss how Yrliet prefers elves over humans. Of course she would fuck him not you.
>>540751252The irony lies in the fact that a weapon like a Greatsword is pretty good on a Wizard type character. Hope that makes it clear.
I'm not gay, I'm aiming to romance Sebille, but not gonna lie Red Prince has me questioning myself
>>540768021>it's not me it's youThe lengths yrlcucks will go to to justify one of the worse romance options in RPGs.
Marazhai knows how to handle silly girls like her
>>540770225It's their fault for keeping him aroundIt's clearly what was going to happenJust look at this chemistry
Has any other rpg character mindbroke a small selection of turbo autists as hard as Yrliet
We must romance Yrliet to be better men.
>>540770230It's funny when your companion stats are used for dialogue checks like this. Paints a funny picture
Turning it into a buttplug
>companions stats are used for dialogue checks during sex with your romance
>>540770917Are they conscious at all? If I replay rogue trader I hope there's some option to desecrate her stone.
>>540770917Someone post the pasta
>>540771234Abelard, make my wife cum. Now.
>>540771273You can give it to deamons i think
