I would like a mod where we're able to use Heather's status as a ghoul to demand she performs lesbianly on us as we practice Blush of Life, with some kind of charisma and seduction checks throughout the act that determines how we perform, what we convince her to do, etc. +2 XP.
>>547279863That's so morally wrong I don't even know where to beginA ghoul is not a pet
>>547275275No. You have to take them with you to craft
>>547279956You have no power here, Damsel.

>>547275119>Anything you miss about rpgs from the 00s?the atmosphere
>>547276467I'm not telling you, satan
>>547279863Because she is a ghoul, Heather would obey any command she was given. ANY command. And it would even be exciting for her.

>>547280810how do they determine what is a sale when everything is on some game pass now
>>547280810weren't veilguard and ac shadows on the top of these lists too
>>547281178They don't. That's why the statistics are worthless
>>547274051I'm glad people are able to see through the grogtard LE BEAMDOG BAD narrative. EE is objectively better, Siege of Dragonspear is pretty good (and more fun than Throne of Slog honestly) and if you don't like a character then you are actually permitted to just not take them instead of letting them take space in your brain for years. That's what I do for Jan "holds up turnip XD" Jansen, Minsc, and a few other awful characters.
>>547281178They don't. >>547281360 were both topping these lists at release for reasons like that.
>replying to your own bait
>>547281178It’s easy. If it’s a good game and you like it it sold well. If you don’t like it the gamepass sales were all fake.
>>547281997>gamepass salesThere are no gamepass sales lol
>>547282098My ability to understand subscription services also changes depending on how much I like a game.
>>547280810nobody has played this
>>547281706If an anticipated game comes out to no competition normalfags are going to buy it, this isn't rocket science. 4chan is not the video game market.
There is not one monolithic marketThat's why Spiderweb bro has made a nice life career for himself even though it has very niche appeal

crpgs always seemed like the one genre of game i would never get intoi only bought bg3 after hearing so many of my friends and everyone else praise it and i liked astarion and expected to drop it after not much time, after 300 hours and it becoming one of my favorite games ever made i decided to check out the other larian gameim about 40 hours into divinity 2 and also fucking loving iti think i actually like this genre now, but im still a fucking baby when it comes to crpgsalso amelia tyler's voice makes me diamonds
>>547287713flesh is weakness
>>547292573Pasqual should have looked like this.
>>547275119>screenshotWhat is that, a mod for Bloodlines?>Thread QuestionBetter writing and overall philosophy. Game devs back then usually had degrees in other things except for the programmers where nowadays there are literal game design classes people can take to be churned out into non-creative cogs that only know how to regurgitate social media bullshit. There is an underlying current of collectivism over individualism in most modern rpgs and it makes even the least offenders feel inherently off.
>quite kingmaker in the second act because the kingdom management>not because of the management itself, but because due to 3 load screens to do anything it takes literal hoursi have 500 hours in WOTR, but every time I try playing this piece of shit I end up quitting. a qol so bad I've only completed it once.
>>547288634>why wont sawyer release the sales files?Because he's mentioned in them
>an outer worlds sequel and now a avowed sequel The uncs at Obsidian need to make a new IP

>>547292253Larian crpgs have their own vibe that you might find lacking in other crpgs.
Wiggers who say "unc" bad.
>>547277415No, there are none. There is a belt you can buy from the Storyteller that makes your next spell extended whenever an ally kills an enemy and there is also a mace that does the same thing when you kill an enemy and works with summons, so you can summon some skellies, charge them and then cast Sunform.

Honestly they should stop putting the ranger class in dnd like games. It doesn't belong.
>>547309489Fighter. Wizard. Rogue.>inb4 clericNo, we regain hitpoints by breeding tavern wenches between each adventure
>>547309489crows rip out his eyeballs
>>547309489what else fills the shooting things with my pet niche
Ranger should be a fighter sub class.

I purchased WotR a while back and only getting into it nowgetting through the prologue and...I'll be honest, the only way I am completing this is if Story difficulty is lenient enough to allow AI controlled auto-attacks (real-time) or using a strong main character solo (turn-based)the clunk and tedium is high
>>547313480when you get access to haste you can just throw that on the entire party and autoattack with 5 retards no problemmight even be optimal
>>547313480The character selection outside of Camellia during the prologue definitely doesn't help with maintaining the interest, especially since you're meant to rely on the strong black woman with the modern-sounding VA to do all your tanking. But I recommend pushing through and maybe setting up a mercenary team once you get to the tavern, Act 1 is the best part of WotR and its downhill from there.
>>547309489I actually read the article and they're right. The niche rangers were meant to fill just doesn't exist in 5e. You're a bad fighter with a bad spell list and exploration skills that only apply to a part of the game wotc doesn't give a fuck about.
>>547314174>Act 1 is the best part of WotRthat actually inspires some confidence, I am not looking for complete it, just to get my money's worth of enjoyment>>547314068oh, okay, I'll chalk it up to early game painsand maybe Cavalier charges not being able usable everywhere
>>547311689nothing is worse than monk, which is some shit they added with katanas after watching a jackie chan movie. ninjas and samurais would be less gay than monk, no one plays monks table top.
>>547314174>Act 1 is the best part of WotRimo Act 2 is better, the first time through it felt oppressive and fittingly like you were marching into a dangerous placeAct 1 lacks that sort of oppressive feeling despite Kenabres being besieged by demons
>>547314435i think 5e ranger is the best iteration yet since they don't require more exp than war, get spells lv2, added some fighting styles. think its good if no one else heals and you just want an odd heal now and then like a paladin - which would make the issue paladins rather than fighters making them redundant
who else is high af right now?
>>547313480Normal should allow you to just let the AI handle most everything and you just intervene on boss fights.
guess i wasnt ready for the bandit chief yet.
The future of classes is a freeform adaptive system within the archetype matrixOne axis is martial ability either trained or impromptuThe other is magic ability either arcane or divine. You progress through the matrix from indepentent starting points based on the skills you select and make use of.
>>547318718Sounds like Elder Scrolls
>>547318718Nah we should just go back to wizardry style class advancements.
evil is a point of view
warrior->knight->Holy knight.Now thats some good old game design.
>>547318718This sounds like the kind of nerd designed system that quickly devolves into five thousand different trait points and effectively ends up just becoming a more annoying version of classes to balance it
>>547301859She tried after-birth. Horgus stopped her and accidentally killed her
Rogue->Burglar->AgentNow thats how you make some design choices.
>>547319486Poor Horgy. He should have been recruitable.
>>547319486>>547319576what is his alignment
I don't care what the game is. I'm marrying the elf.That's the only condition I have for whether or not the game is good.
>>547318089Alright, but I'll try something else than Cavalier, maybe a ranged Fighter or Ranger.
Wrath would be a better game if they just cut the evil path out.
>>547320001But anon, think of the human birthrate. Elf mixing is wrong!
>>547320408No
>>547320232Spoiler: you have an option of two ranged companions early and one of them is a ranged fighter.Maddog barbarian is good fun and is a good candidate to just turn your brain off and smash shit with your buddy.
>>547319619Horgus/Gwerm
>>547319389dnd remains king because its designed so a couple of guys without a calculator at a table can simulate itmany, if not all, alt systems have useless number and ability bloatdnd barbarian -> stength and con, you rage once a sessionpoe barbarian-> int and perception, rage and shout every battle because pressing mandatory buttons is tactical

>>547323712Poe is designed to be played on a computer not a table thoughever.
>>547323827What if there's a coronal mass ejection and all the computers stop working?An rpg system needs to be playable with a slide rule at most
>>547324104It won't matter because then poe will no longer be playable and its system would no longer be relevant.
>>547276467Arue respecd into Arcane Deceiver
>>547323827i said dnd avoids bloat because it can be played on table top, hanging out on 4chan isnt a substitute for proper education on how to speak english
>>547324671You directly compared d&d to poe and thus you brought it into the conversation pajeet.
>>547309489drizzt bros...
>>547324671You decided to compare something designed for tabletop to something designed for computer games, retard.
>>547324906you cant even speak english. you cant communicate with me, just post images and repeat memes. maybe try to google translate my words so this post reaches you that i cant understand

Where does /crpg/ fall on the wizard vs sorcerer debate?
>>547330817I used to prefer sorcs because I'd rather have a few good spells that I could use a lot of, but pathfinder ruined them with all the dragon dips and wizard's spell progression is easier to work into multiclassing nd prestige classes.Arcanist is the new sorcerer.
>>547330817Wizards are real, sorcerers don't exist.
>>547330817Wizards because that can craft things.
>>547331082You control the classes you take
>>547330817Sorc. I usually don’t end up using more than a few spells per level and charisma is more useful than int in most games.
Whatever happened to Ekundayo? The strong, silent type.
>>547327637I was on top of her, your size increases when you do but if anything I got closer to her, not out of rangeBuggy ass game
>>547330817i dont give a shit, they get more similar over time. pf has super specialist wizards where i get the same number of spell slots as a sorc on top of picking spells on level up
>>547331830no it isnt bg3 bro
