How do class alignments work?Can I play monk but also go azata even though monk is restricted to lawful and azata is chaotic?
>>546848247Staff sling
>>546848854Sounds a bit like the Slayer in BG2 or whatever it was
>>546850246Drunken master
>>546851145Oh wait they actually fixed that?
>>546851636drunken master is a chaotic monk archetypeotherwise no, you can level in monk and be an azata as lawful until it forces you to turn chaotic, which will prohibit you from taking any further monk levels but the monk levels you already have will still function.
>>546848854Sounds pretty cool
what weapon is best for a pure vivisectionist
>>546852013I just want a game where you can have the code vein claws as a primary weapon, one thats isnt prototype atleastThe tail is really cool tooMaybe I should just play feyform shifter
>>546848854thats just being a vampire
>>546852531mam, this is /crpg/ not /soulslop/
>>546848854Play Prince of Persia Two Thrones
>>546853482You should start asking for rent if it upsets you so muchAnyway, what crpgs allow for dark magic, that is to say, literal shadow orbs n shit, not blood sacrifice stuffSome flavor of purple/black preferred
Do we know what owlcat is working on besides the expanse and dark heresy?
>>546853992Did they say they were working on something?
>>546854075In my fanfic they have a new original IP coming out any day now and I repeat it confidently often enough that newfags think I'm telling the truth
>>546854147Oh in that case, CoC crpg
>>546854194Corruption of Champions? Count me in.
>>546855016YOU LED THE GOBLINS HERE?!
monk my ass up
Is it just me or why does Fallout 1 feel so deathly serious, *almost* no fun allowed, like there's a cheeky joke here and there, but other than that the setting takes itself pretty serious. At least compared to later parts.
>>546855078>the goblins have arrivedWhat do you do?
>>546855405Call myself stud because I'm preparing to get fuckedTamani has ruined me forever
>>546855363It's a grim situation. There's no reason for a post-apocalyptic wasteland to be jokey. That just came in with Fallout 2 for no particular reason.
>>546855363There is a reason why so many fans hated the zany humor in 2 when it came out.
>>546855363One of the many ways the setting degraded over time. Right up there with the wasteland being locked to a nonsensical perma wasteland that can never progress
Anyone here played Lionheart legacy of the crusader and is it good/worth playing?
>>546855405hot goblin women in Dark Heresy
>This dude waits you atop the lost abbey, deals 110 damage to whoever comes at hand with harm, and then throws around 50 dmg boneshatters while rolling 19+ saves against grease three times in a rowHow do you respond without sounding mad?Seriously I don't know. There are even moments where the ghouls pretending to be dead block placing grease AoE at his feet alltogether
>>546861245Did you repect someone to shifter, or do you have a merc? That second to last portrait is pretty sickNo idea how to deal with the dude though, sorry :D
>>546861245Try to delete him with ulbrig and hope you get lucky? I don't usually bother trying to fight anything undead with that much melee early on.
>>546861245I always bumrush those guys and hope for the best.
>>546863881not very professional
>>546840094>Having to pass a 25 check to tell they're a dark elfI'm not sure how you got the npc portrait mod to work
>>546861245I know these fucks go hard so they get the corruptor stink cloud, grease, winter grasp, web treatment. They'll fail to one of them
Camellia more like Benchedmellia
Camellia more like Cadaveria
>>546864661Your loss, she's the best martial, best support, best buffer and possibly one of the best tanks.
Camellia more like Cumellia
>She was a brave warrior of the crusades. And in this general Camellia Gwerm is hero, end of story!
Any merc will do better than camellia
>>546865303mercs are for soulless trannies
My merc has a lot of souls thank you
>>546865496I fuck your mother
>>546848093>Epstein Drive editionFurther proof this is just an Owlkek general (and probably marketing thread) they create as the epxanse is NOT a CRPG.
>>546864809>Can live for 3 rounds a long restMeh
Do Psyker Rogue Traders make sense? Looking into that for my first character (torn with the Commissar because the hat looks cool) but I understand Psykers are generally disliked by most people. How does a Psyker Rogue Trader work lorewise?Otherwise, what other origins are best to play as?
>>546865640A white woman and her dog are never far apart.
>>546864809>mediocre jack of all trades who can be an okay hex bot in melee if you minmax her and give her all your good gear Amazing
>>546865831>Mask on dogLmao
>>546865941I've give her something to jack if you catch my drift
>>546865698You have a really big note that says it’s fine
>>546865068desu even daemons are less wicked than cam
Owlcat are so gay for backing out of letting player character fucking Nenio
>>546865698if you like making builds, not picking Psyker just limits your options
>>546865583it's an RPG that can be played on a computer what more do you want?
rogues are such a gayboy class
>>546864809>22 touch ac
>>546865698psyker is weird because it mostly changes your build to psyker of x type instead of just being a small boon to whatever you tried to makecant go wrong with officer but that can be a bit underwhelming if you dont want to be the backline buff bitch
>>546865698If you plan to go ranged, then psyker isnt really that necessaryIf you plan on going full melee, you can set people on fire from range, which is pretty coolExecutor also has some funny interactions with it for that reason, I heard bladedancers got nerfed but the gigableedfire shit was fun
>>546865698There was one canonically so yes
hmm, I wonder what role should I play today?
Which mythic is the most "Power Hungry"? Roleplaywise. Demon or Lich?
>>546869974Do a "What videogame character are you?!?" online quiz and roleplay the result
>>546870019I would say Demon's more about getting your way, with power as a means to that end. Lich is more power for power's sake. But depending what choices you make it could be different. You can do "good" things as a lich and there's also the bitch demon route iirc? Like just knowing and accepting your place
>>546870236>more power for power's sakeYeah like that. It's just that the class I'm going to play can't merge books with it.
>>546870078>quizlink some that is not a complete thrash
>>546870523https://easydamus.com/character.html
I wanna see BAEthal bully SHITmilia
>>546870019Demon is about how chaotic you will end up being.Lich is pure evil on the scale, I don't know if there are even any variations to how you play it. I guess it's about how much you sacrifice for power.
are cammy
Gimme a ranking of all origins for RT please. I can't decide
>>546870019Both power hungry but rp wise being a demon is infinitely more fun than a lichcel
>>546870803>>546870983It's just that I don't want to scream like a retard.
I wanna smooch her.
>>546863339>Fucker rolls 20 on his concentration check and and deletes Ulbrig through grappleAnd isn't it funny how best candidate Areelu could find for crystal treatment was demon equivalent of 40kid>>546862942Manticore shifter Wenduag.She would be cool if she didn't roll her to-hits on 1d6's for some reason
>>546871648Idk why people dont do silly things to him like me and summon spike stones and walk all the way down hill and see him die to walking
>>546871648Have heard that manticore Wenduag is pretty goodDidn't even realise that Ulbrig wasn't the only one whose portrait changes after shifting, kinda just assumed he was special since he's the dlc companion
>>546870850why did AI make Cammy look like an Albanian?
>>546861245Savescum until he fails his save.
>>546872205Camcam is balkan coded
What's the best class to go if I just want to be John Pathfinder, but slightly more engaging than just human fighter
SEELAH TOOK ALL HER GOOD GEAR AND LEFT WITH THEM
>>546872205>>546872357she's northern italian
>>546872374Slayer of some sort?
>>546865831I feel like the Owlcat games suffer from slight stat inflation.
>>546872573That's what happens when almost no spells are concentration. You could just go to 5e where casters are neutered
>>546872527Can confirm, my aunt looked like that on her wedding day. I also kind of look like that when using FaceApp to swap my gender.
>>546870019The lich path will have you making some pretty evil decisions to increase your power, and I'm not just talking about killing a few random npcs. It actually feels like there is a cost to your power.
>>546872802Been playing lich but with no ziggurat yet. Making you wait 30 days for it is kwab. I'm still unsure about staying lich
>>546872935I made my ziggurat as soon as I got the quest. All it really does is slightly delay some decrees. By the end of act 3 you'll still be full rank in logistics.
spergs be making all these complex munchkin builds when a base fighter mogs them for 90% of the game lol

>>546872527She's finnish

>>546874902of course
starting this weeks owlshill shift strong in india
>>546848854Isn't some warlocks like that
>random India hate
noldorfag being indian would explain much
Saar use the AI portaits
>Magic Deceiver's spells scale with CHANah. Shadowcaster Diviner still claps it.
>>546876198>make all spells Enchantment and target the enemies' weakest saveNope, outside of initiative MD is the best DC caster.
>>546876562>Int gives you infinite DC as Demon>Lich combines spellbooks and gets enough DC before act 4(before you get access to Triumphant advance ring)>You also lose protective spells and need a dedicated bubby to protect you with mirror images.Too much to pay for things you can already do with mere Corrupter+Persistent Stinky Cloud.Choronomancer type should've had a passive for Int to Initiative desu. It would've put the class up there but alas.
>>546871325you are either irrationally angry or a cuck to some old man, deal with it
>>546872374mutation fighter
Owlcat never baited me like Larian did with her
>>546879051Bro, did you forget about Targona already?
would they let you fuck them if ordered?
>>546879051it should have been her
>>546879904Shadowmom...
>>546879882You're joking? They would jump on you if you allowed them.
>>546879529>targonaincest is, like, bad, m'kay?
>>546879904SHAR LOOKS LIKE THAT????
>>546879882whomst
>>546877036Dude, you have the equivalent of a level 9 spell at level 7 in the form of Hold Person+Slow which behaves likes Mass Hold Monster. Also you have access to pretty much every status effect in the game, so there is literally no enemy you can't CC in one way or another. Even if you ignore things like Fused Spells ignoring immunities you have one of the strongest DC casters in the game.
>>546879882you can fuck them on Heretic run
>>546881020The bath enforcers I think
>>546881137no you don't
>>546881115>Foretell-Hinder
>>546879882why would you do that when you have jocastalmao
>>546882541Probably divi shadowcaster woljif
>>546882541I knew you'd bite, but still, it's wholly unnecessary. I was being a bit overzealous when debuffing Nahyndri's saves because I never take Profane Ascension and didn't really minmax my MC's equipment, and I purposefully let Nahyndri approach the Heart so he was at full power. You can easily reach DC's in the 90's with Magic Deceiver and possibly in the low 100s with Demon.
>>546882970Yeah, I hate using mercs so I just respec companions while giving them a merc point buy. So mechanically they're the same as mercs, race and background notwithstanding.
>>546883245My woljiff is also a shadowcaster divi I mean the whole shadow of ygfeles and all his stats fit really well
>>546882762
I respecced everyone while keeping their stats its more fun than mercs to me
>>546883026>I knew you'd biteDiscussing spellcasting is the only interesting thing in this general.Funny that Angel is the best route for anything that doesn't stack initiative because it gives the best survivability. You take Arcane class and Sacred mythic to compensate.I still find first 2 acts to be the most crucial and important parts of Unfair though. >>546883245I wonder why Owlcat thinks we shouldn't be able to do so without mods. I their minds - it is better to drop a written character completely and replace him with a min-maxed husk rather than allow you to respec at will. They didn't learn anything in RT either.You should've made Woljiff an Incense Alchemist though. You'd get more than +2 DC that way.
>>546883768Abelard said this
>>546884228I don't have an incense gasser but I'm not quite sure it fits any of the companions. I suppose nenio could do it but I don't like putting her in my party
how do owlbabs live with themselves knowing that the cut Paizo got from kingmaker and wotr eventually helped fund that space furries game
>>546884228>Funny that Angel is the best route for anything that doesn't stack initiative because it gives the best survivability.I've been theorycrafting an angel build that makes use of Sun form making you incorporeal and stacking damage reduction with mythic heavy armor focus endurance and the Living Fortress heavy armor to break away from the typical AC stacking nonsense. It's ok when I tried it at max level with all endgame gear, but I'd need to test if it works for the early game.
>>546886604>stacking damage reductionIt won't be enough. Many tried.
>>546886363I don't like furries but I want to see if its a fun crpg.
>>546884228>They didn't learn anything in RT either.RT isn't nearly challenging enough for you to require tinkering with builds to that degree. Granted, some canon WotR builds drove me up the wall as well (Woljiff in particular), it's probably the only thing PoE2 did well.
>>546871463
>>546886604>DRThis won't work. You'll get units hitting for near the hundreds near the end game and most DR sources even with something like Armored Hulk gives you like 20-ish. +Stoneskin that's 30. I'm not too sure where you'll find other sources for it to matter and I think crits are calculated before DR so those will kill you too.
>>546886736>>546887335I managed to keep Regill alive for a full minute solo tanking the succubi in Inevitable Excess Threshold, between the 50% concealment and if we add incorporeal on top I see it working, especially if we add healing.
>>546886363>fully voiced>turn based>already trying to make their games look cinematic with their persona 5 looking ass character transition>whole party is romanceablethey already know what makes CRPGs sell nowadays good for them
ah yes persona 5 the famous crpg classic
>>546888195>Group of 4 characters>You upgrade stats and levelup>You can name yourself>You can choose between magical damage and physical damage>You can debuff and buff>You can equip items that boost stats>Several endings>RomancesYes actually.
The romance meta is being able to romance multiple people at the same time
>>546888580Like in Persona?
What is the best written humiliation ritual in crpgs?
>>546888580With how seemingly "woke" RPGs have gotten, amusing that it seems only KM had a polyamorous option.
I dont think the average woke is polygamy, thats more a mudslime thing
>>546888771the treatment of the poe ip
starfield has polygamy
>>546888195
>>546888939>MudslimeEhhhh don't think it quite counts since (You)r wives can't fuck each other.
Owlcat doesnt even realize how ridiculously stat bloated there games are because half of them are weeds who grew up playing jrpgs. To them having 99+ attributes and a attack power of 77889324 is perfectly fine.
>>546886363i dont think about paizo at all
Any other CRPGs let you talk to random animals like DOS2/BG3?
>>546888815You can in bg3 too(with Troonsin)

>>546890824Based Todd "The God" Howard being polysexual. The chess team is very horny you see.
Starfield is currently the best single player space rpg on the market (unfortunately)
>>546890824>Fallout 4>Starfielddo they even acknowledge it or the game just allows you to date everybody at the same time?
>toddslop>rpghahahahahahahahah
>>546891298>on the marketyou can still buy mass effect and rogue trader
I like Morrowind... You can fly... and brew potions... and teleport...
Argenta is such a bae
Eh morrowind gets a pass everything just went downhill from there
>>546891298>Starfield is currently the best
>>546891505i know the snake girl gets angry if you marry her then date the hag, but then you can use the unhinged persuasion system in-game to make her accept it
The best game in the market to this day is bloodborne
the imperium is literally india

>>546893745Yeah, but If i had to bet on it its the exprats or second generation born in canda and other western countries
Its a race between Todd Howard and larian to see who will become the best rpg studio of this generation.
>Make 5e game>Where characters can only use a max of 3 magic items at once unless youre an artificer>11 magic item slots for characters and loot everywhereWhy? Do the reward neurons have to be activated every other minute?
Why do people talk about Todd like he runs Bethesda and isn't just a glorified idea guy/spokes person that does what the Microsoft suits say. Honestly everytime I've seen him in one of his more recent appearances im pretty sure he might be senile.
>>546893407what's the difference between this and the slop bin they have going on in the RT ship again?
Larian will just make more games that look good but are not good I don't care about them
>>546889391noa shame, bg3 was the most i felt like a druid in an rpg
>>546894931>Why do people talk about Todd like he runs Bethesdastop taking 4chan seriously you sound like a tourist

my favorite part of rogue trader? leading my numerous dogmatic human companions on errands assigned by an inquisitor lord
my favourite part of rogue trader? the part when it was finally over, because ho lord, that game sucked shit
my favorite part of rogue trader? when xenofuckers cope and seethe on scintillian gun polishing forum
>>546898561Don't worry the next dlc companions will be xenos companions so we can finally have a real rogue trader retinue
>>546899036>>546898561Friendly reminder that in the tabletop the canonical rogue trader retinue is all humans, xenos garbage is optional
>>546899245Could you bully space marines and c'tan shards on the tabletop?
>>546897568That's why you want persistent on all your casts.I honestly can't remember how we lived back in the day when this metamagic didn't work.
>>546898004Hes a glowie but your bestie
>>546900403*not I mean. He only likes you if you have a vagina he can see.
>>546899612No, it's owlshart fanfiction because they cater to incels that only amount to anything in their fantasies
>>546900624He doesn't dislike you. But he does more for your wellbeing than literally any other companion except maybe Abelard
Shouldn't temple of elemental evil be put on steam by now?
>>546898004playing Heretic/Chaos Fem RT is really funny because anytime he gets mad, you can just start flirting with him to de-aggro him
>>546865698The other candidate to become the next rogue trader in the prologue is a psyker
>>546899612It's up to your gm. Chaos space mariens are in the enemies manual, so you can if you want to
>>546900875I guess they got all of December to release it, since it's listed as being released in the 4th quarter of the year
>>546900909Until he arbitrary decides to leave. It could have been a fun relationship, but of course it's utterly undermined by owlshart's inability to add reactivity
>>546865698Sure. Psykers can reach great heights in the imperium despite their treatment
>>546897928I think socialite is pretty useful
i have decided to add gale and wyll into my party to finally see their stories because they are so fucking boring i never did before
>>546901546Gale is a cringelord but that makes him funny. Wyll is a waste of effort.
>have sex with me or i will blow us all up!is gale the most accurate representation of a wizard player?
Why do I sometimes randomly get new dialogue options without seemingly passing any skill checks? Like the second one, it only became available after I reloaded a save and talked to him again.
>>546901989you passed a hidden check and it unlocked a dialogue choice
>>546901984yes
>>546901546Gale is not that badm you can bully him for being cringe
Gale acts like how people who hate elminster describe elminster.

Once Dark Heresy releases, I really hope all 40k fags will go and make a /40krpg/ general, because I genuinely cannot stand that gay ass setting. Seeing posts about it in here annoys me so fucking much.
>another hanger-on of the former owlcat general bitching about his inability to hold a thread up on his own
Cry about it faggotI'll post more 40k stuff from now on
>dark heresyWE are all playing solasta 2 in 2026.
if the owlcat general is so great, why did it die without posts from other games?
I will continue to post here about DH, cope and seethe
>>546904570We won't
we die without eachothercan't you see we are family?
>dark heresyas opposed to light heresy?
>>546905220Can I romance them?
>>546905217You will. Fuck you, you ruined my general
>>546905350No, we won't. We will talk about Dark Heresy here and you will cope and seethe, you will try to disrupt the conversation by hysterical shitposting until you eventually lose it and get banned
>>546905350It's not your general and 40k posting is more on-topic than any cuck shit or waifu garbage
>>546905350they're the furries of ipswe'll get a wave of literal ones on afterlight release or if whfb gets one
Solasta 1 looked like some shit game is it not?

Since microsoft owns Bethesda, inxile and Obsidian why not give fallout to Obsidian or inxile since the two guys who created it work at those studios?
I left a negative review for Wrath of the Righteous. I wanted to like it, and I did at first, but after a time the bullshit is just too much. You can use mods to fix some of it, but after a while I realized I was using mods to just skip most of the game. Ability drain, constant missing, the anti RPG design of expecting constant save scumming and only allowing a certain party configuration, the constant random encounters, the shitty crusade and map navigation, the walls of text, there's just nothing there but annoyance and bad decisions. Baldurs Gate 3 is the better game, and not just for production value. I hope Expanse is better but this has really withered my hype for it, at least in 2019 these guys didn't know how to make a good game at all. I guess I'll try Clair Obscura next.
>>546907995Because those studios outright said they aren't interestedPeople shitpost about Bethesda wanting to hoard glory for their IPs but those other studios are obsessed with their """passion projects""" like avowed
>>546907995Brian Fargo prefers wasteland and Obsidian has made outerworlds a setting thats better than fallout.
>>546907995they're both too busy making first person RPGs inxile's looks dope at the very least so there's that
The wasteland setting is way more fun than fallout.
>>546908259Have you tried turning the difficulty down?
I wish she beheld the death I sow, but I'm just a mortal gnat snapping its jaws at the lord of locusts.
Does bg3's in-game mod manager just werk or is the external mod manager still better?
Outerworlds has way deeper social commentary than fallout ever did.
>capitalism is... le badHoly fuck man that's like so deep
>>546909507it is. now gimme $59.99 for an AA game you fat cat
>>546909028It werks but a lot of mods are only available on nexus
What if.... capitalism good?
>>546897928For Hong Kong, Academic has consistent utility, and Shadowrunner is quite handy. So I'd say those two are the best. Gang is a good one too, but that's more for early on. Socialite has situational use but it's really only for one mission.Charisma is general is very important everywhere, especially in one mission in particular where you're raiding a corporate tower. I would get Cha up to 6.
>>546908259Give some more details. Why did you decided to start with wrath and not kingmaker? Wrath is a direct sequel to KM
>>546908259Based. I like Wrath but some fights are utterly retarded.
Will underrail 2 be crpg of the decade?
>>546910909>Wrath is a direct sequel to KMNo it's not, what the fuck are you talking about. The games aren't realted at all
>>546897928Gang, shadowrunner, security, and academic. Academic is mostly flavour options but they come up pretty often.
>>546913098Academic also helps with talking to the magic shop lady as I recall, which helps with the ending

>>546913856My aunt is mostly north italian, mainly from Piedmont, and part french, so I can confirm.
>>546915163Don't call Liotr that.Seriously tempted to make a mercenary inquisitor to larp as him staying with my group instead of sealing himself into an archive.
>>546914639This is what he looked like when he was alive.
>>546915968Eww, looks like taller Staunton.Then again it's not like fighting him is any better. Here's him dabbing on what remains of our party by casting his paralyzing touch (duration: permanent) on skeletons immune to it.

>>546921840Just wait for Deadfire where entire game is railroaded
>>546922013It's less railroaded and more on where everything is actually just pointless. You can advance the interests of many factions in the way they choose but it doesn't matter. You do all that to watch someone do something. Even the DLC doesn't change this despite doing something.
"Bushido is realized in the presence of death. This means choosing death whenever there is a choice between life and death. There is no other reasoning."- Yamamoto Tsunetomo, Hagakure: The Book of the Samurai"I would prefer to fail with honor than win by cheating."- SophoclesThe Trial of Iron mode has been presented in Pillars of Eternity as a special, optional challenge for players who wish to undertake it. This mode restricts players to a single save game. If the party is ever defeated, the save game is deleted.We do not believe it is necessary for us to police how players manipulate their save game data. You may choose to play Trial of Iron in whatever manner you see fit. However, I would like to take this opportunity to ask you to consider the following: what does it mean to achieve victory in Trial of Iron if the spirit of the challenge has been broken? What does defeat mean if you have pursued victory in the spirit of the challenge?Think upon this and act as your conscience dictates. Thanks for reading.J.E. SawyerDirector and Lead Designer

>>546910909I bought Kingmaker years ago and just never got around to trying it. From what I read initially they weren't related, and Wrath was supposed to be the better game so that's what I played. It just wore me down, I went to Blackwater and had a fight with two succubus and two or three minotaur things take almost a full hour because everyone just kept missing. Nobody could hit them and they couldn't hit me, 9 rounds of pure misses then somebody gets one hit and back to missing. I eventually won, and by the end I just realized I just didn't care anymore, it just drained the enthusiasm for the game out of me.
>let me fuck your boyfriend or die lol
Bros how did Rogue Trader manage to be so funny, yet nail the serious moments? I can't stop laughing at getting my enforcers to feed me, fucking that random crazy nympho black chick, or demanding Abelard to introduce me every time I can. It's kino and Abelard is easily my favourite character. Shame that the designated tank class isn't the best at tanking at a certain point, though. Might make him a cop or something
>>546929757excessive (or any) restarting without finishing a playthrough is the best way to kill enjoyment of the gameI remember some miserable people talking about how they had like 200 hours but have still never gotten to Drezen, because they keep restarting, and then they moan and cry about how boring it is... Like no shit you've completely stomped out all the fun with your autism
>>546929552I never read anything unless I expect to learn something of value.

>>546930534>so funny, yet nail the serious moments?That's the ideal 40k balance.
I think i'll give rogue trader a chance I didnt get to finish it the first time and I'm still salty about it. Never play owlcat games on release day
>>546930715i dont read this general, i just post
>>546929864You'll probably like kingmakerIt's much more grounded than wrath and easier. The issue with wrath is they took their experience and tuned the difficulty with that knowledge. Kingmaker is more of a game and wrath is more of a puzzle, and if you don't know the pieces you need in advance you can't solve the puzzles and you lock yourself out.
>>546932641>Kingmaker is more of a game and wrath is more of a puzzle, and if you don't know the pieces you need in advance you can't solve the puzzles and you lock yourself out.I think it's the complete opposite. So many encounters in KM require something specific so that you can beat it>Trolls require fire or acid to be killed>Undead introduces a fuck ton of death effects and stat drains>Wisps remind you to put your resists and defenses on>The Linnorm can't be killed if you forgot to bring cold iron>Whatever the fuck Wild Hunt asks you to haveAnd many more. You can bulldoze most things in WOTR but not really in KM.
>>546930534>that the designated tank class isn't the best at tankingwhat's tankier than vanguardbelard?
>>546933705There’s been some real shitter takes on wotr lately. I don’t know how the fuck anyone finds anything other than maybe those annoying crystals impenetrable when the game gives you so many ways to bulldoze through everything with mythics. KM starts the game with an lmao fuck you cave to punish you if you weren’t paying attention.
>>546934098>KM starts the game with an lmao fuck you cave to punish you if you weren’t paying attention.>Have to kill swarms early on>Unless you have the foresight to buy bombs, you'll be stuck with torches>They can genuinely eat your team alive if you're unprepared>Had to be updated where the stuff you need to kill it is handed to youWould've been a cool way to introduce the mechanic if it weren't for the fact that they're just annoying and swarms don't really appear again aside from the House
>>546934354ToEE did it better where you fight a giant and have to use grease, touch attacks, weakness ray instead of auto attackingbut you didnt play it, just the slop made by the people inspired by ToEE that nerfed it
>>546933705The first two aren't really a thing since those are basic fundamentals. Everyone knows trolls need to be killed with fire or acid, arcane casters even have basic cantrips which fulfill those requirements, you even have torches. And everyone expects undead, the game even gives you a cleric at the start with a second following not too long after.Wisps are kind of an out of left field thing but the first one you fight is entirely optional and something you can just come back to later when you have the tools. The only real obstacle it throws in the way early are the mites but I recall making my way through fine somehow. By the time you reach the more advanced enemies you should have all the tools to dispatch them.In wrath if you don't pick the right spells when leveling you can brick yourself. There are a lot more wisp like encounters where you can get caught out and need specific tools, and some aren't optional.
>>546934098Which the swarm cave? Easy shit. But again that's an issue of oh swarms? I just need to go buy some bombs. Kingmaker is not a difficult game.
>>546934354The house is far worse than the cave. The cave is fuckhuge and has ample room to kite and spread out.

>>546935512Pathfinder overall gave me a greater appreciation for both blindfight and combat reflexes. I take both before I even consider weapon focus.
>>546937375gayfinders shitty teamwork feats ruin combat with crit fishing
>>546937375Pathfinder has crit chains that benefit from combat reflexes seize and outflank other sustems dont have it. Give outflank to a 5e party and things start to look very different especially when hitting a paralyzed enemy is an autocrit

>>546945335Eh used his base stats and tactician slayer but with animal ally feat. Now he's useful as long as he's mounted and can just stay straight slayer. All it takes is adding 1 tabletop feat
>>546945186As far as I love Arue, it's her.You need some sort of a wicked combination of>Turning her into a throwing axer>Several levels of Magus Archer for "Deny Dex to AC" Magus Exploit>Feat that gives a ranged character a "Zone of control" for the sake of "Shatter Defenses" to work>Micro her each fight so she stands in said zone range>Inciter Skald>Some levels of mutagen Warrior and a mythic feat that boosts Dex and STR if you're polymorphedAll that and she starts to hit things. And that's the only thing you can do with her while current patch is extremely spellcaster-focused where physical damage is gimping yourself.

Speaking of Incendia, I'm really looking forward to giving her 4 plasma pistols and seeing how the buffs affect her with her cool unique perk.But I've been on an eso and swtor kick recently and haven't gotten around to that section in my current rogue trader playthrough, and the fact that I wasn't enjoying psyker and restarted as noble officer again doesn't help. I haven't done a complete palythrough after the patch yet. Too many games to play.

I imagine myself in /crpgg/, leading my Platoon. Our mission is to stop lRian dogs from advancing. We mow down lRian dogs but they keep coming. I shoot lRian dogs but I run out of ammo so I draw my sword and begin slaughtering lRianfags, since lRian are way more psychially inferior to me, I slay them by dozens. Then I get shot, but I didn’t fall, I kept fighting. Then shot again and again. lRianfags were shooting me from a distance like the cowards they are. I lie down, facing up to sky and I see BAYKUS KEDI (Jupiter) smiling at me, I smile back… Then I woke up, in cyprus, my homeland. My OWLCAT brethen gave me a warm welcome to heaven.

>>546966457Cool blogpost, where do I unsubscribe?
>>546965754If you mean the fextralife one it's never going to get updated. The whole website is an actual scam designed to funnel people to their streaming and youtube channels.

>>546966657Yeah I think that's it. It feels very quirky and unserious.
>>546966965They're following the module, but for a computer game they really needed to start before you even get to kenabres. Wotr starting in kenabres is like if kingmaker started in the staglord's camp. It provides no grounding to your character and just turns you into the macguffin that others move around. This is narratively fitting given the story but it really feels bad for a crpg.Imagine if you're a crusader or someone posing as a crusader heading for kenabres, but you got injured along the way, when news of the attack reaches your caravan. The early game is you fighting your way to kenabres and rescuing people from cultists and demons.
Dishonored is a overrated crpg. Writing is on the same level as skyrim. Imagine if g-man in hl comes and explains everything to gordon right after he left test chamber.Or jack in vtmb tells you everything when you talk to him after leaving the theatre. That would be lame. Equivalent of this happens in dishonored. In the lamest way possible. But if its deeznuttered it's "fantastic" somehow. Gameplay is meh. There are gimmicks that you can do some tricks with and that's it. Not even worth talking about. What happened to the original studio? Natural selection happened.
>>546967434Yeah I mean, the first person you talk to is a dragon, then a giant locust hops in out of nowhere and decapitates her, and you're still just trying to get your bearings.
>>546967996They made dishonored 2 and are making blade.Dishonored was fine and the magic tricks were fun. But it's not worth this schizopost.
>>546967996It’s not a Crpg, arpg maybe, but not CArpg (ancient rpg) - dota 2, darksidersCrpg ("classic” rpg) - red dead redemption 2, persona 5Mrpg (modern rpg) - rogue legacy 2, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle

>>546973047Sounds helpful, does it not
>>546973291only the Mireya part was a lie, she's a still a real Shaman
>>546973047Healing in combat with spells that require the caster to touch the receiver of the spell are pretty broken in turn-basedFor some reason, if the caster needs to move more than the free 5 feet, they just waste the spell slot and then proceed to use it the next round when they can reach the targetI think the game considers casting the spell and then touching the receiver as two separate 3 second actions, thus making them break if the caster needs to use their other action to actually move in touch range
>>546973197No, just regular cure light wounds>>546973354I'm getting rid of this bitch as soon as ive done the gwerm quest>>546974253I swear this game is coded by actual monkeysShe was within the 5 feet range, hell she just used enlarge person on him the turn before and neither moved

>reduce vivisectionist SA progression to match eldritch scoundrel>move mutagen to level 2>require non lawful non good alignment.There I balanced vivisectionist.
>>546982541 why dont we just report epstein ops? its off topic
just remove rogue. vivisectionist is fun, no one is playing rogue if they make other classes shit
People play rogue in 5e despite it being a shitty single attack class that only becomes good at tanking damage but despite that it goes against its role in giving you stealth tools. Why the fuck is my tank hiding? It's only good at giving you thieves can't. Anyone sane would only ever get 1 rowdy and call it a day
Remember back when skill monkeys were an actual thing and rogues had a useful niche
All rogues should be elven women wearing right leather clothing and mini skirts
All rogues should be little halfling guys
halflings were built to tank

Owlshart, show new DH archetypes already. I don't care about the fucking furries
rogue exists as a dip for my disploomer
>>546999335Furries? They are being very hush hush about the gameplay parts. Makes me seethe.
>>546928374Very much so
>>547000365>Furries?Their excellent marketing team, may they get droned, has just released some information about the game's resident furry companion. Which is something literally no one asked for. What I am asking for is more info on the gaemplay changes. Showing off new archetypes, or even old ones considering they are changing combat significantly it seems. But no, instead they feed us completely irrelevant vapid shit like furry lore or 5 different looks of eldar pistols that the game will have. Thank you, owltards, very cool

>>547001018The kroot>>547000859I know I want to plan my character but we have nothing to go on

>>547001490His romance is nice, its the only way you see him open up.
>>547001950So I've understood, apparently you learn that he likes playing regicide
>>547001876The guy was talking about the furry companion, thats who he meant.

So continue seething about sawyer I guess. Also you're wrong about no one having anything to say about Pentiment. When the game came out there have been dedicated thread about it both on /v/ and /vrpg/. You would of course have known that if you actually had any interest in discussing vidya

We are reaching peak disco elysium likes saturation. Now that Weather Machine (the devs behind Cultist Simulator) threw their hat into the ring, along with the five million offshoots of ZA/UM, not to mention the literal billions of tiny indie versions, we have to finally admit that we are about to reach complete global saturation of the disco-like genre and the market is not big enough to support all of these.

Underrail takes place underground and you talk to 4th-dimensional god men. It's agartha coded.
>>547025358Sawyer:>responsible for multiple good games from Icewind Dale to New Vegas to Pentiment>self critiques to the point that he must have actual autism, added voice acting to Deadfire in response to D:OS2 and then realized turn based is the future after BG3. liberal californian but seems like a very relaxed person.Avellone:>writer for exactly one good game (Planescape), primadona, has been coasting on Planescape for 20 years reputationally. in KOTOR and MOTB repeated the same plot of Planescape. made the worst written characters in new vegas. had a crashout in the early 2010's and has basically done nothing since. resentful, spiteful incel who posts on rpgcodex to seethe about sawyer while sawyer kindly still speaks well of him out of politenessidk you tell me
>>547025816Not enough penguins
>>547025530styg isn't really a chud. his meltdown on twitter where he started ranting over BG3 was entirely ego and resentment based, delusional primadona scraping by while Sven coasts by in a sports car
Do the interdimensional aliens in underrail ever get explain beyond entropy vs life/energy?
Imagine what he would've created if Feargus was not in his way.

Game was made in about 14 months>Worked on Avowed for about a year>Obsidian learnt not to change the engines they were handed - Fallout New Vegas was an example were they stuck strictly to the engine's capacity. A developer on Sawyer's team was adamant about implementing companion interjection (an Obsidian staple), but Sawyer shut it down>Asked about new Fallout TV show going to Vegas ...
Bg3 is woke trash he is right about that.
>>547020076People either say Crushing Prison is the best spell ever or useless garbage because of glyph of paralysis and I don't know who to believe.
>>547026884Heh, is Starsector the only one that really benefited from the Sseth shilling? I know the Caves of Qud one got mad he did.

>>547025056basically every companion outside of maybe noknok and the half elf arcane trickster are built wrong as a joke so i cannot possibly say kingmaker anon
>>547027397Best spell is Blood Wound actually but I'd say Glyph is better than Prison since it's easier to proc.

>>547026431She still kills everything, they just disincentivized us to Death From Above willy nilly. It used to have no downside, now it reduces your strength and dodge. So use it sparingly or else expect her to die from reduced dodge if you use it too much (the debuff stacks).I still use her and she's still great, you just have to actually consider pros and cons of one of her abilities now, which I think is good gameplay.

should turn based CRPGs have QTEs to spice the combat up?
>>547031334thiswe all know sawyer has zero budget under microsoft
>>547031687this, but unironicallyhe earns barely 6 digits
>>547031674I wouldn't mind doing some Arx Fatalis drawings to cast spells.
>>547031382Before, it was always correct to use all stacks of Death From Above with no thought, you could even just use them to move 3 squares for distance.Now, you have have to actually do some math in your head to determine if you're going to kill everyone, because if you do go all-in and use lots of DFA stacks and the enemies are not all dead, then the remaining ones will kill Kibellah due to her reduced dodge. It's an actual decision now, instead of being a no-brainer to always use all stacks.We know the game is generally very lethal and the player's team has various ways to frontload damage and alpha strike, but it's still a general step in the right direction to add more decision points for the player, rather than have something be mindless. I hope they add more in the future. I hope everything is nerfed, or actually better yet: I hope they add another difficulty on top of unfair that has legendary actions and lair actions like in bg3's hardest difficulty.

>>547031316no, POE sold off of hype and novelty. Sawyer then got feedback about the negatives and positives, just like any game good or bad, then proceeded to ignore it all because his ego couldn't handle it and made the same game but with worse gameplay (unnecessary and untested changes) and more VA. He diaper doubled down when it flopped that it didn't enough have money to be more baldur's gate 3 like (even though more money and VA didnt help it)did nothing about the lore dumps, shitty factions, dialogue, etc

>>547031979>you could even just use them to move 3 squares for distance.I always felt shame doing thisI would still do it though
>>547033340there is a middle ground between larian's 2000's era /b/ shtick and sawyer's "no fun allowed" shtick. fiction that doesn't take itself seriously is as worthless as fiction that takes itself too seriously. then there's owlcuck that swaps back and forth like schizos which makes the whole thing feel awkward.

>>547037486what even was this? I guess it's a crossover but to what? does it come up again later or was it just this one shitty quest?
>>547031674No. QTEs are one my least favourite game mechanics. One of the changes that pissed me off the most going from ME1 to ME2 was the addition of QTEs during dialogue.
>>547037676Some literalwho game. It also adds a Fighter and a Witch archetype and a new cloak which is most likely BiS for pretty much any character.

>>547054721>EnshroudedFairly standard adventure where you must go into the shroud, beat a bunch of shroom'd critters and zombies, defeat the boss, and cut the shroud root while on a timer. If Owlcat decided to be based, it'd also come with a small customizable base.
>>547050708he said on his YouTube channel thats the game he wants to do a sequal to the most
Is larian the marvel of crpg studios?
>>547058034so? arnold swarthynegger has the dignity to not say stupid shit as a senior like he wants to beat his personal best bench. pretty sure he posted about being a faggot last year in his lust for attention
Arcanum 2 should be about gnome nazis instead of elf nazis.
>steals your blueprint to the steam engine
Is Obsidian the DC of crpg studios?
Are the Amberland games any good?
>>547054721>mechwarrior 5pew pew pew pew pew
When do flammers start doing damage in rogue trader im doing way less damage then all my allies? And i am a ministorum priest and have pumped willpower.
>>547060759Just retrain as a sanction/pyro psyker dummy
>>547060759I think by late act 2 they are rekting toonsThere are talents that help eg the one that makes damage build off demolition
>>547060750are there any good mech games that have a good amount of crpg-ness in them? Or is it all like just 4X? I don't mind 4X but I really want good AI, but seems studios have just given up on single-player mostly.
How does Rogue Trader compare to WotR?
>>547062115Easier but probably more fun. Better characters
>>547062115subjectively worse writing, worse characters (none of them are memorable or as well written as wotr ones).objectively far worse class system
>>547062115I like it more but its easier/simpler than wotr with less options to pick from. The setting is very inflexible to roleplaying outside of being a total retard vs being a chud retard.
>>547062115Both good. Both good music. Both fun characters. RT has better combat, and enemies aren't just immunity or ac stat sticks. owlcat learns and gets better at once thing or another each game. rt's dlc is also a lot better. void shadows is the best thing owlcat has ever made.
>>547027841the only Kingmaker companions built badly are the clerics, the rest are fine
>>547054721>HitmanEither 47 kills/incapacitates my companions and wears their clothes until he kills me, or I get to replace Greybor
>>547054721>GroundedThe party gets shrunk to the size of ants and has to traverse a treacherous expanse fill with puddles, spiders, and ladybugs
>>547064157>valeriealso i forgot based ekun he is okay aswell
>>547063552well at least retards enjoyed baby trader, removed all the 'artificial' difficulty
>>547061889Literally Battletech
Has anyone played Kingmaker with the Call of the Wild mod?If so, could you please tell me how Psychic, Spiritualist and Occultist are? It's somewhat difficult to tell because Kingmaker conveys far less info during character creation than WOTR.
>>547062115infinitely better combat because prebuffing does not existcompanions are not nearly as goodclass system is horrendous and consists of 60 levels but you get something that matters every 3 levels or so leading to huge amounts of pointless +10 to skill roll level upsspace combat minigame is shit but the empire building thing was atleast mildly more interesting than wotr city building
>>547068412>space combat minigame is shit but the empire building thing was atleast mildly more interesting than wotr city buildingOther way around. The colony management was pointless shit, the space combat was great.

>>546974253It works some of the time. I think the gist is that you can1. cast the spell2. walk up to the target holding the spell in your hands3. touch the targetso as to avoid having to cast spells in melee range of enemies and giving them attacks of opportunity. But sometimes this process breaks in step two, and you're left holding an active healing spell and waste a turn.It works every time if you manually walk to within touch range before casting, though then you might be in melee range of enemies.
