The real question is if DH is better than RT. Personally I doubt that.
>>546154040>using "The" in alphabetizingAoD should be first even though it's shitalso Tides of Numenara is missing and I would shorten to just Solasta
>>546154040Alfira
>TQswap around the xenos so RT gets tau/kroot and ork stuff while DH gets leldar and necronsone set lends itself more naturally to conspiracy theorists than to conquistadors and vice versa
>>546154515That's just 1 person, not a party
>>546154695Oh I misread the question ermuhmmmrm
>>546154040>>Thread questionMalice, Khaga, that womanlet from wotr, Raia and Cephal.
Sorta wish I knew the social context of the GERM FREE forehead tattoo before picking a character portrait in Colony Ship.
>>546155181Do share. I haven't played it
Why hasn't Tim Cain made Arcanum 2 yet?
>>546154040Me and 5 male elves
>>546155832Bet they are all different flavours of Twink. Taste the rainbow
Strong female elf archer raping me.
>>546154351Wait until the fucking alpha is out at least
>>546155970Yes!
>>546155462He lost his edge.
>>546154351No waifus im going to kill myself in front of Mishulin!
>>546157115>no waifusWrong.
>tell Heinrix he unnerves you>this triggers the romance I might be socially retarded but I don't understand how that makes sense.
>>546157265>my vanta-black kweenimagine the handjobs. Oh my, she's even prepped for sounding
>>546157583Maybe he thinks you're being tsundere or something
The crusade mini game is growing on me now that I've got my army group center just blitzing the demons left and right. I do wish two stacked armies could attack the same target, and it feels like I should be able to use their camps for no-corruption rests. I'm also not sure I'm really leading the crusade given my general card has killed a million demons by now while I'm investigating ghosts in the viking forest.
>>546157265but shes BLACK>>546157583Be nice he has autism
>>546157583To romance a man you must break him down and bind him, thats been the way since the epic of gilgamesh
>>546157265prepared to listen and learn when spoken to, miss
>>546157583Bad translation. Should have been "you make me nervous".
>>546158327Silence. A black woman is milking (my prostate).
>>546157583Inquisitor adepts and historians found the>things that unnerve me: my peanus weenusmeme and thought it was an advanced form of courtship
>>546157265gross
does owlcat receive esg money and/or something similar, or do they just keep including ugly over the top negros because they like to.
>>546113264I get Idira because most people are just gonna gravitate towards Cassie a much better "mage" class that doesn't blow up or summons a daemon every fight, but why not Jae? On higher difficulties she solves the whole problem of skill checks
>>546159368>Cassie a much better "mage"Lol not anymore she ain't
>>546159368You just have Pasql for Int, Cassia for Fel and spread the rest.She is never needed
>>546157583He's got a severe form of autism. Don't worry about it>>546158537Is that true?
>>546159513Idira always had the highest ceiling, as long as you were willing to tolerate her head blowing oncei n a while.Cassia is the easiest broken character cause even the biggest retards who have tried the game and are barely capable of reading realized 'just click on navigator talents' works
>>546159368Cassia you get first for an officer, she has both high persuasion and busted powers. Plus she's the main waifubait. Jae is ugly and not gameplay broken like Cassia. The devs did a bad job with a second officer character.
>>546159368i'd rather fail a skill check (imagine doing this in a game as easy as RT) than bring j*e
>>546158007Congrats, you have experienced the winning strategy of a 25 year old game
>>546159810While the enemy stats jacking up on unfair does nothing, the skill check thresholds are no joke.I had a Voidborn GS all in on INT, and I still had to use items that boost skill checks to be certain
>>546159247They do it because I paid them to do it to annoy anons on /crpgg/
>>546154040>What's your ultimate "should have been a companion" adventuring party?Baldurs gate 3 is full of them. Instead we are stuck with the five weirdo OC donut steels, of which only Lae'zel actually fits the game's plot.
>>546159717> 'just click on navigator talents' worksI still remember a guy on /v/ said he used lidless stare on companions and complained about them dying all the time.
>>546159513She never was. She's just the most brain-dead one, so retards never try anything else
>>546159536Fel is for me, and cassia is boring, so she stays on the ship
>>546160043>OC donut>Astarionpossibly the most pathetic male companion ever, literally preys on rodents>Gale, Karl i'll give you that>Sharta literal retard>Wyllyou can't be serious
>>546154040Angel path in WotR should have let you replace your party with Yaniel/Berenguer/Targona/Lariel/Hand
>>546159247Maybe they like black people
What's going on with the Hexxat's Request quest in Baldur's Gate 2?We beat Dragomir. I grabbed the cloak that's only usable by vampires, hoping to sell it. Hexxat gets killed by the real Hexxat (while begging for her life by the way), and then she just starts walking along as if we're already agreed to work together.I won't give her the cloak until she tells me what she's planning with her newfound freedom into the light, and she's needlessly vague about it, so we come to blows, and I chunk her ass.Then that's just it. No ending dialogue from anyone. Not even any real treasure at the end.I know I expected that something wasn't as it seems since Clara is counted as Evil, but I had kind of expected us to lift whatever mind alteration makes her act how she does.Is this just one of those "Ignore if it's against your alignment" quests? because my guy is definitely up for a spot of grave robbing, but not whatever this is.
>>546160525Aren't they russian? They have probably only seen like 2 irl in there entire life.
>>546160618you didn't listen and learn, did you
>>546157583Chatgpt's explanation
>>546160773Doesn't mean they can't like them. Maybe Mishulin loves rap or jazz music.
>>546159247they're urban russians who love american coast culture/attitudes
>sharted gdp's slop
>>546160923how about you ask chat gpt how to romance someone irl loser
>>546160883Listen and Learn what exactly?Also, I just tried selling the cloak, and it's only worth 7 gold.I'm almost tempted to just hold on to it in-case there's some fringe interaction with it later.
>>546160521Kino, but who's gonna be picking your locks?
>>546160773That's precisely why blacks aren't hated in Russia. The few that we have are usually exchange students that come here to study, not nignogs from american ghettos
>>546160923>it's not your status that makes me nervous - it's youThat would have been a better translation and would explain the romance trigger. Even a literal aisloppa is better at writing than owlshart
>>546161773wrongblacks aren't hated in russia because slavs are blacks with white skin
>>546162172das rite>>546159247they're about 5-10 years late when it comes "pop" culture, so expect for it to become worse for a while
>>546162172Das rite, suka
>>546160043Laezel is one of the ugliest things I've ever seen.
>>546162820That's not laezel, she's dcent looking as far as gith go
>>546163172She's like 3/10 by gith standards, almost every female gith at the monastery mogs her hard.
>>546163512ok, contrarian-kun
>>546163512>almost every female gith at the monastery mogs her hardshow one (1)
>>546163512>>546163715

Karlach muscle mommy rapeing me.
>>546163856>>546163920>>546163757>a culture that is drastically different from baldur's gate has the exact same hair fashionSoulless game
>>546163856This is supposed to be hot...?
>>546164135But enough about every fantasy game.
>>546164203hotter than Ugzael at least
I liked idira
>>546164217I know. Fantasy is fucking soulless
>>546160245Eh she only falls off in personal dps by act 3, but navis still provide passive buffs and debuffs by just existing which add dpr to your other characters
This nibba shoulda been romanceable
>>546164639No ew look at his hand
>>546161285>I'm almost tempted to just hold on to it in-case there's some fringe interaction with it later.There isn't. Hexxat is an Enhanced Edition companion, not part of the original game, her questline is largely self-contained.
>>546164135The only major fantasy book series that was autistic enough to describe other cultures hair styles that immediately pops to mind is the wheel of time.
>>546163892more games need barbarian gfsowlcat dropped the ball, only todd and swen have delivered on the wrpg end
>>546164695>Hand so bloated that the ring is pinching on it harderWew
>>546164639There should have been a playable intermission while you're in detroit, in which you play as Chadrok and keep this goddam protectorate running
>>546164947karlach doesn't feel like a barbarian at all
Post funny crpg memes.
>>546163892https://youtu.be/iE_1opGSkmE?t=386Why is she like this
>>546165720
okay seriously why does karlach finger your asshole? Who was that meant to appeal to?
>>546165720Yeah, I don't get it either. Dude clearly gets off to biting people during sex, but when others get off to being bitten too it's suddenly gives him the ick?
Okay seriously why was solomorne romanceable? Who was that meant to appeal to?
>>546166106To people who like getting their assholes fingered. Just a guess
>>546166163the african woman is a vampire and her blood tastes nasty
>>546166163Astarion is gay vampire, he operates on woman logic. The drow gave him the ick.
>>546166163The drow has nig facial features, I wouldn't bite either.
>>546165720I saw that recently somewhere
How would you create a companion that panders specifically to /crpgg/?
I want corrupted arue to be mine
>>546166163Did you pay attention, her blood is aids flavored
good one, r/owlcat. really funny memes
>>546167296Young virgin female aryan elf healer who is scared of every male companion and worships you. Suddenly straight men are saved!
>>546167296kibellah but an elf
>>546167598this but femboy
>>546167476Laugh
>>546167476just for that I'm not posting any other CRPG memes
Honestly in pillars the watcher shouldn't have been just some guy. It doesn't have to be a wheel of time situation where he is literally every single savior figure and end times/anti-christ figure rolled into one and the fate of existence itself depends on them and you have to choose between good and evil, but the watcher should have been the reincarnation of someone who is somewhat important to the lore and world of pillars. Imagine being the pillars version of Genghis Khan or MLK and having those memories that effect what's going on in your playthrough. The whole fight against you past personality to make sure you stay you would be much more impactful because it brings up the question "what do I want to do with the past life and personality of this super important figure"?
>>546168119>8th genNo way he's that low.
>>546168574i don't mind being some guy, it's just that trashfire took it to the logical extreme
>>546168707If you brown nose him enough he specifically mentions not being able to hang with the old school vampires back in Europe. That also explains why none of the other leader respect him.
>>546168574Let's be honest here, if it took that route it'd just be called TNO ripoff. I mean it technically already is
>>546168574>Honestly in pillars the watcher shouldn't have been just some guy.Your previous life personal relationship with Iovara and Thaos makes you more than just some guy in my opinion.
>>546167296Fully customizable worshiper
>>546168574>>546169460dragon's dogma did it better
>>546167296/crpgg/ is not one person, so it's impossible to make one that would pander to it
>>546167296IWD-style customization where you can set their personality and previous relationship to youSmoochable
>>546170014>Pirating the game gave me a more kino final fightSeeing my own character from my previous playthrough was quite something.
>>546167598>"heh, listen to how ridiculous your demands sound">describes the best companion ever
>>546170389>best
>>546167296pregnancy is part of their romance
>>546170636owlcat HIRE THIS MAN
>>546170279kissing dollies aside, being able to create an old friend being pulled into the shame shit you are would be cool
>>546170636Spoiler: it's Mpreg
>>546170983owlcat FIRE THIS MAN
>>546170636>you are not the father
>>546170636>>546170776>Comes in already impregnated>Choice 1: It's from her late husband that died and she still can't get over>Choice 2: She's been rapedWhich way, CRPG man
>>546171021owlcat PROMOTE THIS MAN TO CEO
>>546171021>>546171090how is it even when given a perfect chance to be normal you still decide to cuckpost? asian or jewish?
>>546166163No, she's from House Oblodra, who were exiled then later destroyed because they were experimenting with enhancing their own blood with Illithid integration and mutation. Normally Astarion would bite someone but she's mutated with illithid influence so her blood smells corrupted and her blood tastes bad.A second layer is that Astarion has been treated as a sex object and sex slave his entire life, and he's tired of doing it. Before the game takes place, he had no choice in the matter and was following magical orders of his vampire sire as a vampire spawn, so he was magically compelled to be a sex slave. But during the game, the tadpole has temporarily replaced that link with Cazador, and Astarion is actually free to make his own decisions. So now that he's free, but he still uses his body as an object to get things, it hits different, and he discusses this with you. He didn't have a choice before, but now that he has a choice, he doesn't want to be a sex object anymore. So doing it again, when he had the choice not to, upsets him, and he has trouble explaining why because he's not good with words. It's all very well written. Great game.
>brother twilight >aurora Is one of the owlcat writers a mlp fan?
>>546172273it's always rape and sex with you Astarion fans
>>546171171wait, this isn't /bgg/? >jewishonly 2/8
>>546172635>2/8jewish enough to obfuscate for no reason apparently
>>546172354Those are "regular" sky phenomena anon... Why do you know of the small horses?
>>546172820twilight isn't a "phenomenon" but anon is right it's kinda sus to have them back to back like that. they're not even really related to "daybreak".
>>546172553It's quite literally his backstory though. If you have a problem with this take it up with sven
>>546172273So did they add something extra to the romanced ending, or does he just skitter back underground if you don't make him a greater vampire?
>>546173246Yeah he has a cute epilogue as romanced spawn. You can see it on youtube. Every character has a nice epilogue now, they added a bunch in the months after the game came out.His spawn ending is happier than his ascendant ending.
>>546173775I feel sick desu. How can you even play like that, Shadowheartfag
>>546166163Common /crpgg/ poster autism issue
I woke up at 3 today
>>546174740It simulates looking through the slit in a helmet visor
>>546173775I sometimes think about replaying the astarion dating sim to see the endings, but then I remember there's also a mediocre game attached to it
Why did bg3 fail at pleasing people that actually like games
>>546176519crpgs are my special little club and normalfags aren't supposed to play them
>>546176519it's made for people who don't actually like games or even the setting/fiction in general
>>546176519Levelling is shit, story is shit, companions are mostly shit, combat is mostly shit
>>546176519Solasta has better combat than it.
>>546176519it is a spectacle rather than a game
Is Kibellah Camellia but actually good?
My ancestor :')
why would some one rage at bg3?can their pc not run it? is it like skyrim where they play it but pretend not to like it?
Is solomorne owlcats best written romance?
>>546177291nah cam would find kibbles disgusting and kibbles would just kill cam
>>546177348>Aedanyou basic bitch
>>546177445owlcats best written romance is Yrliet
>>546177468That sounds like a yes
>>546177291No, they're not alike. Kibellah's life is her duty and she puts the Emperor and her ship above all else including herself. Cam is just a perverted hedonist with a mental disorder that makes her murder people, which is also self indulgent. They're opposites.
>>546177426I had one playthrough but I dropped it right here at the start of act 3. I wasn't triggered or anything I just realized I could hardly even muster a chuckle from it. I just didn't care about anything happening.
>>546177689chat, is this true?
>playing baldurs gate 1>get to siege of dragonspear>it's better than the base gamewatso wait was all the backlash to siege of dragonspear really just culture war retards sperging out? unbelievable.
>>546177426now I want to see dobson try running bg3 on his shitty mac
Is Shale basically Kibellah but good?
>>546177996nothing alike but both are good yes
>>546172273>and he has trouble explaining why because he's not good with wordsauto shit writing right there
Is Imoen just Bethany but romanceable?
>>546177291No. She's neither camellia, nor good
