Kill Chaos Edition>What is /crpgg/?This general is dedicated to the discussion of computer role playing games such as:Arcanum, Baldur's Gate, Disco Elysium, Divinity: Original Sin, Dragon Age, Expeditions, Fallout, Icewind Dale, Jade Empire, Necromancer's Tale, Neverwinter Nights, Pathfinder, Solasta: Crown of the Magister, Pillars of Eternity, Planescape: Torment, Shadowrun, The Age of Decadence, Temple of Elemental Evil, Tyranny, UnderRail, Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines, Warhammer 40k: Dark Heresy, Rogue Trader, Wasteland, Wizardry, and many others.>Recommendations:https://files.catbox.moe/gx6f4u.png>Computer Role Playing Games Resources:https://pastebin.com/NEvHHATehttps://monkposter.github.io/community.htmlPrevious: >>542607779>Thread QuestionWhat was your first CRPG? Why did it make you like the genre?
>>542771274>Undoes Galfrey's potion but not Anevia'sWhat did Owlcat mean by this?
>>542771274>What was your first CRPG? Why did it make you like the genre?I think it was DAO. I just love rpgs with dialogue and interesting characters.
>>542771425The real Aeon move would've been to remove whatever existed in his broken mind that made him seek the potion in the first place.
>>542771274>thread questionBelieve it or not Rogue Trader. I don't know if I like the genre, truly, or if I'm just playing Warhammer dating sim. I'm on my third playthrough regardlesss.
>>542772391>ThirdYou find it more palatable than me
>>542771274DAO on the ps3 as a teen. my core memory is spending my time in the first village dismissing my party members so I could kissu the sexy swamp witch that made me feel tingly
>>542771274>What was your first CRPG? BG1>Why did it make you like the genre?Because it felt like tabletop, which my friends and I had to do in secret due to the "satanic panic" bullshit
>>542771274I think it was DA2 since I had some more money buying BL2 from the local piracy shop. Then I got smarter figured out how to download shit instead. It was all downhill from there.
>>542772737>he was alive during satanic panicHow are your knees anon?
>>542771425aeon's true ending leads to anevia dying in the woods and never getting that gender bender potion
Dark heresy alpha soon
>>542774104please let me play as a blank
>>542774104Guess I'm gonna have to avoid these threads to not get spoiled.
>>542774635You get cucked
>>542774635The world will be grim and dark
>>542772982Very tail end of it, I grew up in the 90s but it was a mindset that stuck around far longer than it should have.Bizarre, in retrospect.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8qc9JiIiOSQ
Frenly snake people
>Thread QuestionThe Magic Candle trilogy. I liked the art and high fantasy feeling of it but I was a child at the time so it actually didn't stick until my mid-teens when I got into Fallout and Baldur's Gate, after which crpgs became my favorite genre.
>>542774635The real corruption was in your organization the whole time
>>542774104>the temple of elemental evil,solasta 2 EA and the dark heresy EA are all releasing in q4So which one are you playing first crpg?
>>542767034>Chapter 3 is after the Nashkel mines right?>I don't see how you'd handle the mine but get slaughtered off the beaten pathYeah. 3 out of 5 locations I've discovered after defeating Mulahey so far have enemies that kill my entire party quite easily. Durlag's Tower guards at the entrance kill each one of us in 1-2 hits, so no going there. Just south of Candlekeep near the shore the demon that appears after a lady kisses and kills your guy casts some AoE spell beyond my power to reflect. I got one magic protection scroll from some shady guy, but it's only one, so no help. Some random forest west of Nashkel has 2 ogres and several packs of hobgoblin archers near the entrance bridge. I bought a lot of antidotes against poisoned arrows, that helped, but my party still ends up half dead once the bridge is clear, and that's without triggering a bandit with 6 more archers a little to the east and going further.>The letters you found in the mines should tell you what to doHell, you're right. I must've thought the letter was yet another bounty notice. I store them all inside a chest, thankfully, so now I know that I have to go to Feldepost's Inn in Beregost. Thanks for the advice.>>542767639Level 4-5? It wasn't that difficult. I didn't even know that temples sold items when I cleared the mines (I only remember reading about resurrection and item identification from the manual), so I strictly went off the items I found along the way, and still had some unused consumables left. Poison spiders and a single asshole archer with enchanted arrows gave me the most trouble, the rest was manageable. I didn't change the difficulty and I'm not rushing the game, this is my first playthrough. Gnoll keep is clear, Dynaheir's in my party.>>542770450I was just asking for a general direction, nothing too particular. Things got strangely tough for what I've heard was one of the more accessible CRPGs, and I wanted to know for sure what kind of progression I should expect.
Do not play crpgs
>>542776172>Gnoll keepOh, speaking of. I left Xan there with his sword so I can have both Minsc and Dynaheir in my party. My headcanon is that he lives there now and it's no longer a Gnoll Stronghold, it's Xan's Stronghold.
>>542774104Anyone here gonna play it?Personally I'll wait till Beta
>>542774104How do I get in
>>542776172As far as veering off the path I think you've just gotten unlucky. You're right about "Level 4-5?" my mistake, it should be 3-4. I was thinking you were saying you finished the mines and are just now turning level 3, which seemed very early to me. Make sure you're doing a lot of ranged, it's king in BG1 especially the early levels. CC spells like Sleep are amazing as well.>Things got strangely tough for what I've heard was one of the more accessible CRPGsIt's still pretty unforgiving at these very early levels when a stray crit can end you.There's a number of quests people give between Beregost and the Friendly Arm Inn that can give some good XP. Make sure you're equipped decently too. If you go north of the Friendly Arm, there's ankhegs and their shells are very valuable (but very heavy too). Additionally, you can bring them to the guy in Beregost and he'll offer to make armor out of them.My guess is that your AC is generally lower than it could be, but without seeing your game and how you play it's hard to tell. But I think the early levels are the hardest, in how fragile you are.
>>542776702Why are you here
I'm summoning a giant fucking penis, don't get in my way
>>542777135That's a perfect place for him to mope around sighing to himself.
>>542777679Me playing Persona
>>542777602This is the general for pretending to play crpgs
Disco Elysium is not a crpg
>>542778705Agreed
>>542777416Me.>>542777446You pay 80 dilla on Dark Heresy site to get alpha access alongside other goodies
More dolly kissing should end in pregnancy.
>>542778705Incorrect opinion
>>542779628>80For a broken mess noooo
Dark Heresy Alpha test in Q4 2025https://youtu.be/G8xQw8ITReQ?si=lW43z4wELobHLiKG
>>542776172It is accessible in that it has a very user friendly interface and controls. It is brutal in terms of stomping your low level characters though. It is entirely normal that you are dying that much. Not doing so requires experience and knowledge you have to gain over a couple playthroughs.The cool thing about the game is that once you do master it, you can come up with your own route through the game and easily play it ironman without ever needing to reload.
>>542780642Cannot wait. Will be my first time doing one of those
>>542776121Well I haven't played ToEE in years and I don't touch early access, so pretty easy one there. I'll get Dark Heresy probably when DLC 1 hits. That's usually around the time Owlcat games are ironed out and ready to play.
Define what a crpg is without the help of google/AI
>>542781530Computer Role Playing Game
>>542781530Cuckold Role Playing Game
>>542781530Computer Role Playing Game. Where you engage in a Role Play, but instead of tabletop it's on a computer. As a video game.
>>542771274>Kill Chaos EditionThat's cute
>>542782095They really had to give Desna 2 girlfriends to keep her from starting interplanar wars
>>542782095This scares the chuds
>>542782095Sarenrae should have given us azata powers not densa
So you just pay 70 bucks then what? Owlcat emails you the game then sends you some goodies?
>>542782095>Tristian followed a brownick
>>542782095Why isn't she white?
>>542782995hes not like you
>>542782995>>542783197You know thinking about it, why isn't Tristan brown then if his goddess is one?
>>542782707Sarenrae is an angel from nirvana bro
>>542782913Yeah, but there's also exclusive feedback forms for alpha testers where you can give your opinion. More than just bugfixing. I did it for wrath and trader and I'll do it for heresy too. It's just kind of fun to play a little early, see it change over the course of development, and be a part of giving feedback and the like. I did it for bg3 as well. Development is interesting to me though, I don't necessarily recomend doing it. In fact, waiting to play the release means you won't be spoiled on the plot and stuff from an incomplete version. So it's just up to you.
>>542783275Does he really need to match her physically
>>542783551Maybe not, but I imagine if some god/dess would be making creatures, they'd look like them. This is assuming the azatas/angels are created by them, my lore's rusty.
>>542783035>why is the goddess whose followers look like this brown
>>542780642While I myself can't wait to play Dark Heresy, gonna pass on alpha, since it will be a bad first experience of the game. Bug central, no polish, no VA. And it will take away the wonder of going through the first parts of the game for myself blind in a polished experience.
>>542782995based
>>542782707The neutral good mythic should have been Sarenrae turning us into a Draconal Agathion instead of a gold dragon.
>>542783807I did think it was funny that Tristian says he's from the desert place
i just made my kingdom and now i have all these projects. this game demands a lot of BP, and i've bought at least 3000 at this point.
>>542785049>and i've bought at least 3000 at this point.You WILL buy those, your salary and lunchmoney isn't enough. That money has to go somewhere, until at the very fucking end where some random vendor sells "god" gear.
>>542784212She should've just shown up for the mercy path.
>>542777532>I was thinking you were saying you finished the mines and are just now turning level 3I still have the save where I just cleared the mines. 2 characters (including me) are Level 1, the rest are Level 2.>Make sure you're doing a lot of ranged, it's king in BG1 especially the early levels. CC spells like Sleep are amazing as well.Hmm, good to know. Right now only Imoen (bow) and Dynaheir (sling) participate in ranged combat. I've given Minsc a crossbow just in case, but never equipped it. I'll test it in the next battle then. None of my mages know Sleep IIRC, I only have a single scroll for it. I'm saving it for someone especially mean (I've been thinking about using it on the shore demon).>There's a number of quests people give between Beregost and the Friendly Arm InnI had to turn down two because Xzar and Montaron kept bugging me about the mine. Are non-companion side quests timed, usually? I rejected them because I assumed they were.I'll see what's north of Friendly Arm, haven't seen no "ankhegs" yet.>My guess is that your AC is generally lower than it could beMy PC has -1, others have 2-3, not counting the one mage.
>>542784212Mythicpath oracel wizard would be fun.
>>542771274>What was your first CRPG?Fallout 2 circa 2006.>Why did it make you like the genre?Something about quantifying persons and what they can do through numbers resonated with my autism and had me hooked.
>>542771425dw he gets what he deserves in the ending.
Owlcucks should have listened.
>>542783275Sarenrae... has certain tastes when it comes to men. See her angel in Lord of Nothing for an example.
What crpgs are you guys playing? As for me, its wizardry 5
>>542786370I'm struggling to figure out how you cleared the gnoll keep and the mines ending in level 1 and 2... Really doesn't make sense to me but ok I'm not about to do the math.Most of the difficulty complaints people have in the early game is bumrushing the mine too quickly and not being able to beat it, so then being advised to sidequest around until level 3-4. So apparently you bumrushed the mine with ease but are now having trouble with the sidequests.... Really not sure what to say about that I guess.>MinscI'd give him a composite bow because he has high strength, iirc? It's free to switch weapons, so really everyone should start ranged. If the enemy has range then yes you want to close in with meleeI would memorize Sleep instead of use it as a scroll (hopefully you understand that you can copy scrolls to your spellbook? if not, that may be a source of problems for you)>I had to turn down two because Xzar and Montaron kept bugging me about the mineYou shouldn't turn them down. Non-companion quests aren't timed that I can think of.
>>542782095Desna best goddess
>>542787923>I would memorize Sleep instead of use it as a scroll(I meant "I would copy it to your spellbook" instead of use it as a scroll)However I think that if Dynaheir is your only mage that you won't be able to, as Enchantment is her opposed school, right?What class is your MC out of curiosity?
>>542788415>Clearly drukhari tech>Man I wonder whose the assholes that set up this trapI'll never forget how this annoyed me. Pretty sure you can even visit this place with Marazhai and I doubt there's lines about it.
>>542788646Yrliet even guesses it must have been Chaos or something iirc kek
If you attack the treant guardian on sight in the dialogue in the Sacred Lands you end up with a quest to inform some other npc but no way to actually open the doors to proceed. Seems a bug or maybe I'm missing something?
>more dark heresy content>still no proper waifus announcedWhat the fuck does owlcat think it's doing?
>>542789279owlkeks are making you gay, obviously
>>542789279Birb is there
>>542771274>What was your first CRPG? Why did it make you like the genre?Arcanum. I was a kid and didn’t understand a shit, but the first cutscene and magic mechanics were so fun I never forgot them and ended up replaying it 20+ years later and that's how got into the genre.
>>542788840>kill the guy who opens the door>huh why the door don't open!?
>>542789279They will reveal more leading up to alpha. I remember them saying they might do companion reveal articles again on pisscord
>>542787228>be handsome rogue man>turn himself into a woman because his orc love is a lesbiankind of tragic
>dark heresy has no romanceHoly based owlkek.
>>542746696>their entire personalities get wiped as HarlequinsThat would be an improvement for yrliet >>542749363>I don't know if I can't trust you again, Yrliet.>Nor I you If you're the guy who wants to see all the content, that answer ends Yrliet's romance so maybe you'll decide to reload and choose the other one
>>542771274>TQNeverwinter Nights. Could've been KotOR 1, but it refused to run properly>Why did it make you like the genre?Idk, it just clicked for me
>>542789279They figured no one would care about the mandated cuckoldry if there were no cute girls.
>>542789279
>3 owlkek games in a row where I have to play a h*manFuck sci-fi. Retvrn to fantasy when
>>542774635I'm gonna make up fake spoilers
>>542774104Warhammer Day is October 25th so that's when we will get details
>>542789279>still no proper waifus announcedWrong WE are all fucking the black science lady.
>>542790932HOLY BASED
>>542791000Lol.
>>542790797Okay, look, I always hated the kroot in general, I'm willing to give one a shot if she's like the coolest most likeable character ever, but I'm expecting more of a yrliet which, works for her because she's a dommy toll mommy elf, but won't work for the kroot girl.
>>542774635Yrliet returns as a corsair and has a mommy-dommy relationship with Larry similar to a gender swapped Mercy/Jae relationship
>>542791185Yrliet's dead. Pascal killed her.
>>542790185Nah that part doesn't confuse me, what confuses me is why did it grant me a quest if its going to lock me out?
>>542781607pre the inception of /crpgg/ this eas the correct answer.>>542781903these days this is the correct answer.
>>542791375The evil clone Yrliet will take her place
>>542791141>I always hated the kroot in general,Is there a single waifufag with good taste?
>>542791141>she's a dommy toll mommy elfShe's a retarded edgy teenager
>>542781530Camellia Role Playing Game, a game where you have to support Camellia in all her endeavors while accepting her for who she is because that's what a real friend does.
Yo Froggy if you are ITT wondering about your opinion what the best blobbers/dungeon crawlers are if you played them?Other anons don't seethe just asking a seasoned RPG fag his opinion
As autistic as it sounds I refuse to play alphas cause I want to play the complete story. I did the same thing with BG3, WoTR and RT.
>>542791000>WE are all fucking the black science lady
>>542792156Why would wanting to play a finished game be considered autistic? I buy games, especially Owlcat ones, way after their release date so I can gauge whether they're good or bad beforehand. Plus they're usually much cheaper after a couple of months and it really helps a turd world poorfag like me.
>>542791936Yeah eventually you learn that but at first she seems mommy-like mainly because of her voice
>>542792156I think that's a pretty sensible way to play games. I usually just take a look at classes and wait for the full game
>>542792107Do you like turn based Wizardry style blobbers or real time Eye of the Beholder style blobbers
>>542791000lollmao
>>542791141The writers' thought process is as follows>Well Cassia and Yrliet are clearly described respectively as monstrous and disturbingly alien upon first meeting them, and they're very popular, so clearly we need to go all out with the monster girl
The Rogue Trader crew? Full of dogmatic humans.The Inquisitor crew? Full of aliens and mutants.
Rogue Trader gameplay: running errands for the Lord Inquisitor Dark Heresy gameplay: exploring strange new worlds with your gang of aliens and other suspicious characters
>>542792097CUMERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I need to fuck her robo asshole
>>542792097
>>542791141Shes banished from her tribe for some reason. Since she's blue it might be because she ate a T'au which would be extremely based
Any Arcanum enjoyers?
>>542792746Turn based
>>542793783You're only allowed to like and talk about owlcat games here
>>542793783Overrated and plays like shit
what would be your shadowrun street name irl
I want to believe that you homos are just pretending to be mad about us having a kroot companion.
>>542793567>banished>very alien>long rifle They're just going to redo Yrliet with hopefully less complaints from gooners because this time she's ugly
>>542793787If you dont mind making your own maps then you cant go wrong with any Wizardry other than 4. They have a bunch of ports and remakes if you dont want to play with wireframe graphics. Wizardry 1 has a very new remake on Steam. For Wizardry 8 you won't have to map but it is a bit different from the other games.There's also Wizardry: Tale of the Forsaken Land on PS2 thats very good.As for modern Wizardry clones, all the good ones are coming from Japan. Etrian Odyssey 1-5, SMT Strange Journey, Undernauts, all great games
>>542794293There's a difference between banished vs. entire homeworld is just fucking gone.
>>542793783It's been ages since I played it, but I liked how Vergil's personality and voice changes depending on how you solve his death.
>>542794370Yeah but Yrliet was already an outcast and was always mentioning it, and the other elves never failed to take a jab at her over it >well well well, the outcast has become a mon-keigh's pet, how predictable type shit
this general's going to become 40slop /rtg/ again isn't it
>>542794579Going to? Already is
if that really is froggy that responded can you please send the pastebins with your wotr nenio and kc builds?
>>542794239I don't give a fuck about kroots
Will we ever get a real goonable crpg?
>>542794579Talk about something else then faglord
>>542794331Thank you, out of curiosity what about real time, I liked the Grimrocks personally
>>542794558>mon-keigh>monkeyholy shit
>>542794579>>542794652i don't mind if a lot of people are discussing a particular gsme, even if I'm not playing it. It keeps the general alive and whenever I come to discuss other games there's always enough people to engage and respond.
>>542794579>Oh no people will talk about the only recent relevant gameThen go ask companies to make more *good* CRPGS.
whenever that anon reaches out into the void for "froggy" I can only picture in my mind a severely downs kid with a bib and spaghetti sauce all over his chin clapping to himself
>>542789279kys and play a dating sim already
>>542794861Nobody can talk about anything. I will never post anything else but nobody else can talk about anything either.
>>542794579what's the matter kid? Warhammer: 40k too dark for you? too grim?better get used to it, this setting is NOT for babies
I miss morrigan and having sex with morrigan
>>542795564Im going to eat a baby for the emperor

In the Imperium, "It" would be happening for based and redpilled galactic human supremacy and a way of life that adheres to the absolute strictest manifestation of perfect military aesthetics, and nothing, NOTHING is more important than orderly, structured and militarized aesthetics. It is the only fucking reason to breathe.

I'm going to find the heretics with the biggest boobs to feed to my Kroot
>>542798140The beak stays, however
>>542798216>beakjob
>you are pretty... it will be good to have those boobs
The Kroot will want frequent hugs but her feathers are a bit scratchy so you'll have to pass a toughness check each time or take damage If you're too reluctant to touch her she'll notice and get upset
>>542798419Iirc Kroot also has been mentioned to have a lot of small bugs on them, which they possibley cultivate
>>542787923I cleared Gnoll Stronghold at levels 2-3, some time after the mine. Now you got me curious what's so weird about clearing the mine at levels 1-2.>apparently you bumrushed the mine with ease but are now having trouble with the sidequestsWell I wouldn't say with ease. I died to spiders and a specific archer several times, and left Xzar's corpse in the mine. I didn't know what to do with Mulahey and his minions at first, but he conveniently stood up in the entrance to the room where Xan was, blocking the way to all his minions. That's how I managed to defeat them all. Finished him first, and then dealt with the others, healed and ready. Slimes near the end caught me off guard with their ranged attack, but their hit chance is pretty low, so everyone dodged most of them on second try.You're right that I rushed there, I didn't want Xzar and Montaron to go. Though I already replaced them both, I didn't know the game would throw this many companions at me.Side quests have been fine so far. It's the areas on the map that I go to on my own accord that scream "YOU SHALL NOT PASS". I did that because I didn't read the one letter that told me where to go though, so that's solved (for now).>I'd give him a composite bowI've only seen short and long bows so far.>I would memorize SleepMy cleric and mage don't have it. And yes, I figured you can manage spells in priest scrolls and mage books.>if Dynaheir is your only mage that you won't be able toXan deserves some rest at his new fancy castle. I'll see with the next mage I'll find.>What class is your MC out of curiosity?Fighter. I just realized I fucked my entire character idea, by the way. I planned to go with Fighter/Diviner because an oracle/fortune teller who can also wield a sword is the coolest shit ever, but apparently you need 16 WIS for it, and I only have 10. Some guy told me I need INT for that, not WIS. Some guy, if you're reading this and you did this on purpose - fuck you.
>>542793365She looks trans
Would yrliet a kroot?
>>542798801Kae'morag! Shut up, mon-keigh
I feel as though Owlcat's games aren't good enough on their own to inspire this much obsession over them.I wonder if most of the fans here and elsewhere actually just played the games as visual novels on the easiest difficulty while also being 15-25 years old when they played it originally and/or without much experience with previous RPGs such as from Dragon Age, KotOR, Mass Effect and so on.I'm not saying they're bad, but there's also just not enough there without headcanoning and projecting on virtually every popular character like Heinrix or Yrliet.
I wanna smooch her.
Camellia or Wenduag? Which batshit schizo gf should I choose? About to finish the Abyss and I know that you have to choose at the start of Act 5.
>>542799760It's just that the characters are memeable No one cares about the gameplay
Are you fucking retarded, like shut the fuck up nigger. Wrath of the Righteous is a phenomenal gameplay game with rpg building, customized portraits, sexy husbando and waifu action, maximum power synergy combat and high risk high reward questing scenarios. You are out of your element faggot so shut the FUCK up.
>>542800130Use toybox to go for both
>>542800425Does that fuck with Dance of Masks stuff?

I think patch 1.5 is gonna come out on October 25th.
Wizardry 7
>>542793365>Corpo HR Robo Ladyyeah thats a slam dunk in terms of wives built for Fire/Gravity Paladins (which is actually a cool class that i'm interested in playing)
>>542802201why is the cat japanese
>>542798658>I've only seen short and long bows so far.This is making me think you didn't even look around Beregost or Nashkel...? Especially the smith in Beregost would be a good place for you to drop some gold on equipment.>My cleric and mage don't have it. And yes, I figured you can manage spells in priest scrolls and mage books.I'm still worried that you're not getting it. If you have a mage and you have a scroll that they don't have in their spellbook, you can right-click on that scroll and (attempt to) write it to your spellbook. There is a difficulty setting to always succeed, which I put on, because I personally think it's a stupid mechanic to fail and lose the scroll.Clerics get all their spells right away as you can see in the spellbook, but mages have to write spells from scrolls.>I just realized I fucked my entire character ideaVery common with dualing, which is why I suggest against it for a first playthrough. You'll slaughter as a pure fighter anyhow as time goes onYou could also use EEKeeper but depending on your self-control it might not be wise.
>>542802480>Ni-meow
Every time I see default John Kingmaker I chuckle. What kind of retard plays sword and board Fighter with a flail instead of a sword? Heh, I'm smirking to myself just thinking about it
>>542777679me playing shin megami tensei, nocturne.
>>542802929bro your flail of the ages??
>>542777679me pulling my cock out in public
>Hello friends and welcome. In this Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous build I'm going to pick Human with Pickpocket Background take a pet class, Outflank, Improved Critical with an 18-20 weapon and take Shatter Defenses by level 15.Yawn.
>>542804705>SD by level 15Holy late
is marzipan's sub/dom thing still backwards?
>>542802929Because it's fun. Also because one of the most broken weapons in the game is a flail.
>>542804772no they fixed it
>*hits you with his ball*
>>542805219I feel like flails would be easy to disarm
>>542805438you have clearly never been hit with a blunt object before
>>542805219>the armor design looks cool and grounded but IRL medieval armors look like utter dogshit and are super uncomfortableWhy is reality always so disappointing?
>>542805438I'm pretty sure one handed flails are a work of fiction, like medieval nunchucks they just aren't practical
>>542805594I'm pretty sure the flail on pic would either rip my arm out of its socket or fly off if I swinged it hard
>>542805438They look more like cavalry weapons
>>542805740The default Kingmaker build ends up at 18 or 20 strength I think so he can handle it
>>542805530Because chances are, anyone who can actually commission getting an armour made is likely not fighting so it'd be more on aesthetics.
>>542791000Its clear what owlcat intended thats why they made two if them.
Can someone give a quick rundown on the starfinder 2e classes?
>>542806409>furry>scalie>cuckbug>low-effort robot
>>542805529The problem is the actually hitting someone part
>>542806471I said classes not companions you brain rotted waifu fag.
Why is there so much freemason imagery in owlcat games?
>>542806586Cuckbug is a classYou can dip into it while mainly leveling furry
>>542802480Because, and I am 100% serious, the creator of Wizardry is a huge weeb. Thats why Ninja and Samurai are classes in the game. Also, one of the games took forever to come out because he kept taking vacations to Japan stopping development until he came back
>>542806586nta but nobody cares about the game besides the romance options
>>542792097I love how that medium of armour (breastplate of camedarie or whatever) is pretty much canon outfit after her base one.
>>542805594complaining about combat practicality in a setting where no one bothers with helmets seems like a waste of time
>>542807049The weebness paid off because Wizardry is insanely popular in Japan
>>542806137It does feel really token at this point, especially since I'm pretty sure they'll be right in the intro like Idira and Seelah were.
would you prefer the fantasy races but in space or every variant of furry and bug for your space fantasy game
>>542807049>Ninja and Samurai are classes in the game.Based. I wish more western rpgs included them. Monk is lame.
I like making maps but I wish the SNES Wizardries had a better auto mapper because I would love to play them on my phone while I'm at work
>>542807872Pretty sure both DND and PF have that, they just aren't playable due to reasons. Plus having one would mean you'd need to explain fictional china/japan and most settings don't even go that far.
>>542802512>This is making me think you didn't even look around Beregost or NashkelPerhaps I looked past it. I'll drop by the smith, I'm in Beregost right now.>If you have a mage and you have a scroll that they don't have in their spellbook, you can right-click on that scroll and (attempt to) write it to your spellbook>Clerics get all their spells right awayThat's how it works?? I've read about 80% of the manual, yet this is news to me. You're right, I wasn't getting it. I would've never figured it out, I assumed it just used the item without me having to put it in the hotbar, just like with potions. Thank you for telling me.>EEKeeperI'm playing the original, not EE, but I see there is a non-EE variant as well. Does that mean that I can swap INT and WIS and the game won't break in half? I don't really see myself replaying it, so I might as well play as I planned from the beginning, if it's possible. Pure fighter isn't fitting for my character at all, and I got fooled into putting points in INT in the first place.
>>542808218DnD has an Asian setting but it hasn't been touched in a while because right now Wizards is REALLY hesitant to make sourcebooks about nonwhite settings You will get your forgotten realms slop and you will like it
The closer I get to the Ivory Sanctum in WotR the more bored I get with the game. This didn't happen with Kingmaker at all, but the encounters all feel really tedious in WotR, there's no real satisfaction in overcoming so many of them in a row.The first act was pretty good though.
>>542808218Yeah but they aren't base classes, they always do m*nk only
>>542808693Actually I say this but I forgot the Asian setting is in the Forgotten RealmsYou will get your Sword Coast slop and like it
>>542802480Herro everynyan
>>542808714Kingdom management makes me want to blow my brains out
>>542808856ching chong land is also in pathfinderactually has one of the most romanceslop APs
>>542808950>Decide to meticulously design my towns in case I can visit them>Finally get to do so>It just uses one designI remember being so mad about this. At least don't give me hope it matters, might as well give me a list of what to build and some building plot counter.
If Seelah look like this would she be more accepted?
>>542809607>female martial that isn't partly eye candyno
>>542809607That's a really low bar to cross but yes.Instead of being better than shit how about you find something that's actually good?
>>542809607Is this that Eidolon souls game? And yes obviously, but her issues isn't just her looks.
>>542809607The writing still comes across as bad in this screenshot."oh hell no" like a sassy black woman that's had enough but won't actually do anything.I have no idea what game that is though. Solasta?
>>542810185Jesus christ
>>542810185>Solasta?No. The UI doesn't look like absolute shit here.
>>542809607>AWWW HELL NAH
DEY HEAWELL, THAT JUST HAPPENEDI'M NON-BINARY
>>542808337I'm glad you understand the spellbook now. Yes, write scrolls to your spellbook is how mages get new spells. Also you will be limited by your INT as to how many spells can fit on each level of your spellbook, just to be aware. So for instance, if you have the full number of spells written for level 1, and you come across a level 1 scroll, it will display as if you already have it written (as in you can't write it.. the green outline or whatever, I don't remember). A potion of genius changes this, and your chance of success at writing the spell... but again I think this is a pretty shit mechanic and set it to auto-succeed.I can't answer for some non-EE variant and breakage, but if I were in your shoes I would give it a shot and feel perfectly fine about it, since you had an intention that was then misguided, but in the end it only matters to you anyhow. Also I don't understand this anti-EE nonsense, it's ridiculous to me as I see it as strictly an upgrade, but some very loud retards come out shaking their fist and shitting their pants about it so I won't bother pursuing it, as long as you're having fun (though I wonder about this since you seem inclined to just cruise through quickly)Anyhow, writing spells and visiting the Beregost smith guy should help with the difficulty.
Solasta is beautiful
>>542809607me on the left and my sassy girl boss black woman is speaking listen and learn wife on the right
Ekundayo? Removed.Seelah? Removed.Sosiel? Removed.Idira? Removed.Jae? Removed.Solomorne? Removed.
>>542811129You can manchurian candidate a /v/fag if you say their trigger word
>>542811959>EkundayoI though he was well liked. The game makes it a point that he's from fantasy africa and he acts like a foreigner. He also keeps to himself and just wants to kill monsters.
Shadowrun: Hong Kong question, am I advancing anything by taking rests when I feel like my character would?I'm trying to treat urgent quests as urgent even if they aren't, but also it doesn't feel right to me to do more than like 2 missions between rests. Also holy hell does this game have a fuckton of writing. I'm not opposed at all, just really wasn't expecting that at all. Another interesting fact, I've completely avoided combat in 2 of my 3 missions so far. Also was expecting a much more combat-heavy game for some reason. Most of the reading is completely optional just having conversations with people, with all of your companions having an on-going kind of long conversation ending in a "let's pick this up later" type thing. But I think a person could just skip all that, though it's clearly where a ton of the efforts went in the game so I think maybe it's just not the right game for someone who isn't down for quite a lot of reading.
>>542812274You may be shocked to hear this but racists just don’t like black people.
>>542812274Its just a bait attempt. Ekun passes as a good character.
>>542811959all owe me sex

>>542812865Looks like a mobile game
>>542811959What about Jacob

Thinking about it black companions in RPGS really fucking suck. Barret Wallace mogs them all.
Ignoring Owlcat's number inflation what would be Idira's psy-rating?>>542792097but the true ending of the Camellia Role Playing Game is helping her get her life together because thats what a real *best* friend does :D
>>542813046>grew up without a father figure>said father figure turns out to be a rapist>cheats on femshep and knocks up some random bitch while femshep is in prision>every single piece of advice he gives is literally the worst option every time>the second he joined cerberus he mad a beeline for miranda and her fat assHe can stay because he such a walking stereotype it's stretches into the realm of comedy. That said I believe is best character arc is when you send him into the vents so he can die doing what he loved, being useless.
>playing KM for 64 hours>haven't had a valerie scene or convo in awhile - what i assume is the finale of her questline given the name of it>turns out i've missed a second tavern scene that i cannot get to trigger no matter whatboy i love having to install a mod manager and mods because i might have said something nice to another companion one time that blocks out this tavern scene.the more i play this game the i like it and the more i fucking hate it.
>>542809607>Oh hell noI too love random immersion breaking AAVE in my medieval fantasy... you motherfucker!
>>542813946You're likely gonna hate it more and more by the end. Hope you actually planned out getting the "secret ending" else you're cucked out of the true final boss.
>>542795840Farsight Enclave, Exodite Eldar, and unironically the Imperium. Everyone else can eat shit and die
>>542813946Bag of tricks is pretty much mandatory. They can’t even patch kingmaker anymore
>>542792097>collage made of the ugly playdoh model instead of fanartnot sure if based or cringe
I liked idira
Does Danse Macabre's mythic 2 passive function like Death Ward? Death Ward seems like it'd catch more stuff, since Danse Macabre specifies only negative levels, and ward is any negative energy effects. There's no other mythic ascension that looks like it'd benefit a Kineticist. +AC and +DC vs. undead and undead-ish seems solid.

Why are drunk midgets, lizardmen and fatties accepted by anons in fantasy setting but not brown people or strong womenExplain it to me logically
>>542816212All i can think of is the Hexxat. She was one of those stupid add-ons for BG enhanced.

>>542816445Panam is mystery meat. Full black women there's Hexxat (she's a dyke anyway so doesn't count) and that one chick from Greedfall who nobody chose because she gets mogged by that one native girl.
>>542817002>that one chick from Greedfall who nobody chose because she gets mogged by that one native girlBased.
>>542816493Why even bother to pretend
>>542817002>she's a dyke anyway so doesn't countIt's not like the women want her.
>>542812378Jae isn't black
does mercedes from dragons dogma count?

>>542811387>you will be limited by your INT as to how many spells can fit on each level of your spellbookHmm, so INT is still important. I'll see how many spell slots 10 INT will give me. If things look bad, I might shave off a point or two off STR. Assuming the save editor works, of course.The strongest scrolls will stay in my possession for now. Dynaheir is lawful good while I'm lawful evil, so I'm not sure if I'll keep her for long (I want an evil/neutral party). Like her otherwise.>I would give it a shot and feel perfectly fine about itYeah, I'll back up the saves and try to use it, see how it goes.>I don't understand this anti-EE nonsenseJust wanted a virgin, vanilla BG experience. I don't play remakes in general.>I wonder about this since you seem inclined to just cruise through quicklyI see why you're saying that, but no. I rushed to Nashkel Mines and turned away quests to avoid losing my companions. I missed the letter because I've had 3 bounty notices on me and mixed up which ones I've read and which ones I didn't. I didn't look for the composite bow because I didn't know it's good, and I avoided the smith in general after I saw the ridiculous (for my level) pricing, thinking "I'll come here later". Some of my biggest gripes so far have been caused by me misunderstanding, not knowing, and accidentally missing stuff. I'm having fun and taking my time.
>>542818734Casca is black
alright I hate to ask the IT question but why the fuck is BoT not working. i installed UMM, dragged BoT into the manager, hit install, but i can't use it in game. this is so troublesome.
>>542818734Correct. Casca is a tan-skinned mutt. She's mystery meat like Panam except less black than Panam since her hair is straight.
>>542818734Casca is from the desert
>>542819578Casca sounds like the spanish for helmet, except feminine form.I always assumed she was inspired by the mixed-moors of southern Spain.
>30 bucks for just the alpha of dark heresy

Who is the lebron james (greatest of all time) of crpgs?
>>542820000horrible quads, lefraud only won 3 rings + a mickey mouse one btw
>>542771274For me it was Might and Magic 2. I didn't get far into the game because I was like 6 at that point, but the manual was fascinating reading. I think that's what sold me on the genre, I liked the idea of imagining how these systems worked in my head.My first REAL RPG was Fallout I liked the combination of gore, humor and violence. The Ink Spots' "Maybe" and "War, war never changes" was also very iconic.
>>542820104Those past era rings are nowhere near as impressive when most basketball players were literally who's off the street that were also working part time jobs. Congratulations you beat a plumber and a substitute school teacher at basketball for a finals ring.

>>542771274Playing DOS:1, got to the mines. I'm getting kinda bored of it. Writing doesn't do much for me, and the combat is starting to feel pretty samey. Thinking of dropping it. Does it pick back up soon, or is my instinct right?
>>542815557>>542816212I don't mind lack of options on this matterWith how current game deveploment and media attitudes are, the romance wouldn't be what i am after.It's better to imagine it myself

If Larry romancces/hooks up with the female Eldar companion if player doesn't romance her I'll simply kill him every future run (or her if she's more annoying)
>>542821935Wrong. Romancing Black Women is NOT allowed in rpgs. They're not for you, chud.
>>542823541More like a Jimmy type. He's a caster, and is a wayfinder corsair, not a typical cutthroat pirate. So he'll be romanceable by female inquisitors, and have the potential to be good friends with male inquisitors
>>542821460>>542821692>mfw I realize i don't have jungle fever, I just don't like any girls that have romances and consequantly look after black women in-games because I can imagine the romance myself
why does this general care so much about romance
The culture of /crpgg/ is too far gone at this point to realize it.Crpgs are meant to be romance fiction for men. Video games in general, really but only crpgs give you the romances in depth as opposed to just a piece of eye candy like you might get in an action game like Halo.
>>542795840ehhhhhh this question always feels like it's in bad faith due to a certain shitposter here. But in case you're actually new and just asking for real,To give you an actual answer, 40k isn't really about good vs evil, it's about the lengths humanity goes to survive. It's a story about how context changes you/changes a society, and the context humanity finds itself in is an extremely hostile galaxy where everyone wants them dead, so they go to extremes just to survive. That's the short version of 40k in general. It's not like LotR where there's a bad guy who must be slain by the good guys, it's just the story of survival, with no real good guys, and many bad guys. The tau are often said to be the closest thing to a "good guy", but this is relatively speaking. They still use pheremones to make the vespids evolve in ways that makes them more subservient, they still treat gue'vesa as second class citizens in many planets, and they still ultimately will eradicate anyone who doesn't join them. But the reason they are cited as the good guys is because many factions don't even give you a chance to join, they just skip to the eradicating.There are still good individuals within the imperium, like Cain. There are some stories about normal average dudes who are just trying to be reasonable, but they're in a galaxy that chews up reasonable people. Your average random citizen who just toils in the field to produce his state mandated work quota also isn't a "bad guy". The average random PDF soldier who defends his home from orks and deldar and shit isn't a "bad guy". So it just depends on what kind of story you're looking for.
>>542825063>Crpgs are meant to be romance fiction for men. Hello /v/ from 2014 the world has evolved past that try to keep up
>>542817002>Hexxat (she's a dyke anyway so doesn't count)That's only because she only saw men as black as her while she was alive. Gorion's ward would straighten her out with an ivory rod after undoing her sad, undead state
