Tristian x ________
I wanna smooch her.
>>553023185My baroness
>>553022413>What's the pettiest reason you decided not to play a crpg?I have two, but it's more on me quitting when a certain scene happened. One was BG2 when I was not given an option to bury Khalid or interact with his corpse at all and then Jaheira yelling at me about him after we got out. Ticked me off that I quit and didn't come back. The other was MOTB with the hagborn guy. It was the scene with his mother and he talked about just how much he hated her and blahblahblah. Then the cutscene bugged out and he started talking about how much he forgives her. Quit right after since I was made to believe the story was the selling point.
What was the main course?
>70% of players immediately shot idira out the airlock >we should make another one for dark heresy What was owlcat thinking?
>>553023185Yrliet.
Starting off strong
Bvllgian x Alistair
>What's the pettiest reason you decided not to play a crpg?I keep putting Disco Elysium off because the reputation its gotten as a far-left soap box type game. I don't even know if that's true about it, it may be entirely wrong and actually good, but its successfully kept me from wanting to engage with it. Maybe one day I'll be bored enough but I've not reached there yet.

>>553023737No, I've not played any other BG game.
>>553023607Guess I'm never playing it, the game looks like shit on my PC.
>>553023701Idira is my psykka, and she goes everywhere with me until the end.
>>553023737we all hate Jaheira here
We all love Nenio here.
>solasta fags defend this
>>552989449Planescape is amazing, isn't it. You've reminded me to replay it.Arcanum also has an interesting setting and writing but is a lot more janky than Planescape >My friend has baldurs gate 1 and 2 for ps2 and I could wire them to video projector and good stereosYou could jump ahead and play BG2 skipping BG1. BG2 has a lot more personality. That's what I did years ago. People here will say "nooo you gotta play BG1 first" like it's some chore, but you don't.
Re-posting the objective tier ranking, just in case any of you need tips on which companions to take with you
>>553023358how much DEI bucks does owlcat get for doing this?
>>553022737I would have liked Yrliet better if you could have in-depth conversations with her about destiny vs free will, obligation vs setting your own path, topics that initially seemed to matter to her. Like how you could talk to Pasqal about serious topics
>>553024090horrendous taste
>>553024090>the open relationship chick that high >nenio that high
>>553022641Jae. She'd be good at both femdom and femsub
>>553023539>I don't even know if that's true about itIt isn't. Every political faction is shown to be flawed and retarded in their own certain ways. Many dumb people are just hyper-sensitive to representations of anything left of center when they aren't being completely condemned.It's a really great game, you should play it someday, if you like something more character/story driven. Good tone and writing too.
>>553024382You need a very high IQ to appreciate Nenio but she's an excellent companion, objectively
>>553023358You don't have any airlocks in DHCheckmate chuds
The most bestest girl.
>if God good then why do bad things happen?
>>553023941Looks like a comfy game, actually the Solasta talk and screenshots have made me want to play it so I just bought it. Missed the winter sale but oh well.
>>553024635she never said that
>>553024635has any religioncel ever managed to answer that question satisfactorily?
Any dark heresy data minners here? Is there a way to grt rid of companions like in rogue trader?
>>553023279>I was not given an option to bury Khalid or interact with his corpseAnon... there wasn't much of a "corpse" left to bury
>>553023941Jaheria on the left
>>553024816you can give Cogg to a lot of people
>>553023941You can't say 'Solasta' without saying SOVL and ASSI'm so euphoric while playing it all of my characters levitate in cutscenes automatically.
>>553024698Her whole philosophy is literally cutting everyone off from the force because she thinks its bad.
>>553024841Well there was a body there, or at least "something". Just annoyed me to hell. Then again, I played it cynically since this was way back when people shilled BG2 in notcrpgg threads as the best thing ever.
>>553024090>Garrus in tolerable
>>553025158Garrus is a pretty sad character when you think about it
>>553025002She thinks the force is intrinsically bad because he turns people into puppets of fate, not because it lets "bad things happen"
>>553025274>if God is good why does fate exist
>saves the western CRPG genre from AAA slopTHANK YOU!
>>553023742>kidnaps your gf and literary rapes her until her mind breaksI don't think she put up much of a fight. Mission wouldn't have folded like that.Imoen never turned evil no matter what Irenicus did to her
Only people who play a lot of CRPGs understand how cool and clever Nenio is.
>>553025414has any jedicel answered that question satisfactorily?
>>553025002Kreia dislikes the force because she doesn't want to be subject to something with a will of its own, because she's obsessed with independence and forging your own destiny and other Nietzschean stuffShe doesn't care about bad stuff happening and is mostly indifferent to the suffering of others
>>553025414Well, why?
>>553025265True. I often think about Garrus and how sad it is that you can't smooch him as a male Sheppard.
>>553024090>Mira in "always try to fit them in"Hilarious. She's barely even there and what personality she has is badAgreed in Visas belonging there
>>553023539It was written by a bunch of insane communists but it does basically trash every single political philosophy because the insane communists that wrote it are also nihilists. It's not really a video game in any case, just a novel repackaged as one, so you're not really missing anything if you skip it. There's no real gameplay to speak of.
>>553024090>likes the most boring dwarf in existence
Kreia was the bad guy
>>553024090I never really got why people dislike Cernd (aside from his terrible statistics), story wise he's fine. One of the few to get a tragic ending, too.
>>553026138Wrong. The SW universe would better off if the Force atrophied and died and the reins of history were put back in the hands of mortals and not superhuman autists and sociopaths.
>>553025845Mira is great. Best gunslinger in the game, one of the best skill monkeys, can walk through mines, can shoot rockets. Her voice acting is excellent, she's a fun contrast compared to characters like Kreia and Atton who are secretly assholes: she's secretly a good person with a heart of gold.She's also one of the few party members who has character arc resolved at the end of the game
>>553024781Yes, it's been addressed multiple times by scholars and priests of many religions.
>>553025502This.We also want to impregnate her.
>>553026292>destiny being put in the hands of mortals with the best genes=good>destiny being put in the hands of mortals with the best wizards genes=bad
>>553023539It's completely irreverent save for the communists which they paint as either insane incels that's still fighting a war that was lost ages ago or idealists that are doomed to fail. Everyone kinda gets their fair shake since even Measurehead can have a decent heart to heart talk with you about things. Even the "gay thoughts" one is useless and the "feminist thoughts" just weirds out the women you can use that "skill" on. It is just reading though and if you don't care for the story, you'd just slide off.
>>553023539I don't care about politics, so it was very funny to RP a person who does care. But if even thinking about it puts you off, probably better not touch it, you'll get triggered or something idk
>>553023539The worldbuilding and character writing is quite good, the actual plot and mystery of the game is a letdown, I was really disappointed by the final stretch of the game
>>553022737I always wow her name as yriletI always get her name wrongYrilet and Mazipan
>>553024090Jump off a bridge. Shittiest list I’ve seen in a good while.
>>553022413>Dark HeresySorry if I can't see where I'm supposed to click or how many objects I need to put down on the map, fuck you
>>553026475nice joke. every single time religious apologists "address" it they retreat to begging the question and appeals about incomprehensibility and defining free will as they please. all permutations on augustine's initial fraud too, no originality.

>>553023539It is a lot of reading as anons have said but it's actually very digestible due to their good presentation of the text, the full voicing, and how there's skill checks almost every 30 seconds. And, there is often interesting and/or funny results from failing them.

>>553015491>>553016059completely shitting the ending so much so fans that the fans start to retro actively hate the previous games is a biowarian tradition it's no surprise that banner saga was made by bunch of ex bioware guys
Hes hated because hes humble
>>553027428there is not a single immortal force user they all end up dying.
>>553027459Those xenos and their complicated names, you think the rogue trader has time for that? Why can't you guys be like Larry? I've been calling him that for the entirety of this trip and he hasn't corrected me once
>>553027705His games are kinda boring but Josh is correct that most gamers are insecure dipshits looking shallow ego stroking and react badly when a character acts like a person and not a masturbation fantasy
>>553027297I really doubt you've read much theological thought on the matter.
>>553027428your missing the point the universe would be exactly the same one just has no magic in it.
>>553027838I bet they have pet names for each other but you're too mon-keigh to be allowed to do that.
>>553028075yes, and the universe is infinitely better for it
>>553028134They've been calling each other cousin for some time, they're into some weird stuff for sure
>>553028060Oh look the tradcath larper is bristling!
>>553008840>She just likes you from the start and calls you a different term before she knows you, which makes it feel forced.>a great many of her conversations include her saying stuff like "of course, I shouldn't have expected your primitive mind to understand...let me explain", Charitably, you could interpret it as she has dreamed of your coming, foreseen you in some way, and is somewhat disappointed by the reality vs her expectations, but nevertheless finds you fascinatingShe's like "you came to Janus because of your will, not because of fate" which ties into what appears to be her initial plan of fate vs freedom of choice which never got developed
>>553008840GOOD POST
>>553028162Your acting like weapons of mass destruction dont exist in star wars, instead of getting force chocked you would just get bommed by a star destroyer.
I need to talk about Yrliet EVERY SINGLE DAY
huh all of those replies to a retarded post from the last threadvery organic
I get the impression that some posters here are mentally ill
>>553025473Imoen enjoyed it, she probably begged Irenicus for more even after he was drained after a full day of the most hardcore BDSM plapping. Likewise I dont think old man Malak could satisfy jailbait Mission.
>>553028484that's ok as long there is no faggot wizard behind it all

Whats worse taking Star Wars or 40k writing seriously
Kerias whole philosophy born out of coping since she a B tier force user powerwise and not a S tier one. She thinks if the force didn't exist she'd be at the top instead of a B tier advisor bitch (if the force didn't exist she'd would still just be some b-tier teacher/advisor bitch). She is a grown ass woman who never grew out of that cringe teenager phase of "if my totally based and logical philosophy got implemented id be one of the people at the top"
>>553027804Light side users can become force ghosts and affect realityDark side users can bind their souls to a place or objects, reanimate, clone themselves, etcThey all need to go.
Kreia didn't care about good vs evil, she resented the fact that every living creature is ultimately just part of the Force's design and it regularly uplifted or condemned people according to it's own design, and we're all just pawns. She hates the jedi for willingly serving such an entity, and she hates the sith for their delusional belief they're not just another cog in it and how they are so self-destructive as well.She has a point somewhat, since we're never really in control of anything and everything is ultimately in accordance with some omnipotent authority figure, and a person who believes in self-efficacy would naturally have a problem with that, but she's ultimately wrong because the Force isn't really a sentient being, you're not serving a particular liege who has attitudes and opinions, it's a force of nature. It's more like being angry at electricity or gravity, it's just pointless and you're not going to change anything, and you don't really have anyone to be mad at. Even if you got mad at Sir Issac Newton or Nikolai Tesla as representatives of gravity or electricity, you're not actually touching these forces of nature themselves.Kreia is just a bitter old Sith who is angry that a deity-like figure exists and is above her. You could make this whole thing a religion allegory if you tried, there are lots of people, including Satan himself, who believed that humans should be free and in charge of their own fate, while religious people don't mind being servants of God and understand that he's above us. It's the fundamental dichotomy. It's essentially hubris vs humility, which is Kreia's problem as well.I've seen a thousand misunderstandings of Kreia and kotor over the years. Hopefully this helps.
>>553029050nobody takes star wars seriously including it's creators warhammer even though it claims to be satire of grim dark fantasy has the most toxic braindead fan cult
>>553029174Does Kreia dream without your consent
>>553029064Kreia seemed satisfied at the end, she trained a student that killed all her rivals
>>553029174good post master skywalker
>>553029050>>553029283Yes we get it you're too cool and ironic to form genuine attachments to anything
kreia is the force user equivalent of a hipster faggotwho read the third way to enlightenment the first time it's no surprise that she was written by a pseud too
>>553029283We have fags here who take both seriously though, see the autism paragraph post.>>553029501Go buy your Gulp Shitto lightsaber merch
>>553029501I don't like either franchises
>>553029174Kreia is completely correct. In the real world, it is pointless because gods and fate don't actually exist. In her universe, however, it does and destroying it is a noble calling, assuming it is possible.
RT seriously needs some better uniques for exotic weapons in late game.
>>553029742>fate doesn't exist
>>553029703>>553029649You probably have the mental age of an autistic 8 year old so this might not sink in but I'll try to explain this: Just because you don't like something it doesn't mean others feel the same way

>>553030072>Why would destroying The Force, which is generally shown to be benevolent unless twisted and warpedI'm not really an expert on Star Wars lore but isn't the Force implied to be True Neutral that likes balance?
>>553030647My second favorite. Anons just hate him because he's not a woman.
>>553030072she tried so hard to become her universes version of owlmanhttps://youtu.be/xZH6saT0mPI?si=QYxIeNcQ1j9fT4ky
Kreias cope philosophy would have made more sense if she was born some ugly negroid or jeet that barley had any force powers at all instead of being born a rich noble woman who had way higher than average force powers and way better technical skill than most.
Tell me, for I must know.What is the worst CRPG you have played?
>>553031062Are you speaking from personal experience
>>553031082tower of time
>>553029742After a lifetime of pondering and research, I find it more likely that some sort of entity that doesn't follow the rules does exist. We know that our universe is the result of an explosion of a hypercompressed singularity that is the leftover matter and antimatter of the previous universe collapsing, and that this process happens an unlimited number of times going back forever, but this knowledge of how our universe began simply introduces the question of what started this recurring process. "It always existed and has no start point" is not scientifically satisfying. So if there exists a thing that doesn't follow the rules of starting and stopping in time, or being made from matter or antimatter, that set this process of infinitely collapsing and exploding universes in motion the first time, then you can call that thing whatever you want. Some people call it god. But obviously I'm not going to convince you of anything in a short 4chan post, so we can completely skip your assertion that god doesn't exist in real life and just focus on the star wars half of the discussion.Which is what I already said. Kreia does have a point from a certain point of view that it's a valid desire for people to be in charge of their own fate rather than being cogs in the design of an omnipotent authority figure, but she's ultimately wrong that you can do anything about it, and she's wrong that it's inherently a bad thing. Her opinion is that it's a bad thing, but objectively speaking, the Force generally seeks balance and is generally not overbearing. The galaxy mostly runs itself, and the highest profile cases where the Force has to intervene, is when a dark side user is throwing off the balance. If you look through the entirety of star wars history, it actually is a mortal getting too big for his britches causing trouble by using the dark side, and it's a neutral or light side user to puts things back into balance, with the help of the force empowering them for the task.
553031189mfs are posting literal walls of chatgpt texts now
>>553029174I lean towards chaos personally
>>553031154No but why would I hate the force if I was born one of the haves instead of one of the have nots, it just makes her look like the star wars equivalent of a annoying commie rich kid.

>>553029174>>553031189A little verbose but some reading is always welcome
>>553031189nta, The Battle of Ruusan is an example of the light side being out of balance, not counting the Anakin situation. It could be argued that the sith instigated both cases, but at least one of them was prophesized and the other I think was contrived by the force acting through the two major force-using cults of the galaxy.
>>553031189>gap in knowledge>invent godevery time (no offense, im mostly shitposting about the religion stuff)>but she's ultimately wrong that you can do anything about it, and she's wrong that it's inherently a bad thing. Her opinion is that it's a bad thing, but objectively speaking, the Force generally seeks balance and is generally not overbearing. The galaxy mostly runs itself, and the highest profile cases where the Force has to intervene, is when a dark side user is throwing off the balance.

>>553030562Not very many. Disciples Liberation and Disciples Domination.Star Wars Outlaws (not a crpg but it has rpg elements)In the near future, Witcher 4.MaleMC is significantly more common than FemaleMC, and of course custom player character is more popular than both.>>553030817Correct. The Force desires status quo and to mostly be left alone.This is related to another common misconception, which is that there are two sides of the force to begin with. There is just the force, and then there are people who are misusing it by bending it to their own will which we refer to as "the dark side". "The dark side" is a corruption of the force that is the result of people's use of it. George Lucas himself originally said there is just the force, and that sith are "like a tumor on the force". There isn't really a "light side" in the literal sense, that's just the force in balance. All imbalance comes from people.>>553031062She's simply a true believer in her philosophy. Her being ultra priveledged both in life and the force makes her beliefs more substantial. She's not just an underpriveledged person raging at her own life, she actually had every advantage and still believes the force shouldn't exist, which lends credence to validity and honesty of her beliefs. It's easy to say your country should becomes communist if you have nothing and only benefit from that, but if you're a rich person who just truly believes in communism and you're willing to give up your privilege on principle, then you're a true believer. I like Kreia for this reason. She is a well written character, even though I disagree with her. Which is part of why the people who love Kotor, love Kotor.
>>553031189>We know that our universe is the result of an explosion of a hypercompressed singularityyes, although "know" is a bit strong for something we infer rather than have direct evidence of> that is the leftover matter and antimatter of the previous universe collapsing, and that this process happens an unlimited number of times going back foreverthis is just bullshit
>>553032346>that picrelopinion discarded
>>553032346
>>553030647Should've been a woman.
>>553032346Do not respond to me
problem with kreia is that her philosophy doesn't make any sense in her own universe the closest real world philosophical equivalent of the force is "Para Brahman" from Advaita Vedanta which says that the entire universe , time and reality itself is party of this one supreme entity/consciousness everything that exists and that will exist is part of this In our universe it's just one of many possible explanations for the nature of reality In her universe it's a reality so if keria's plan worked at best she would have performed what's effectively a castration on galactic scale where every living creature that was once part of this "force" would now be effectively soullessorworse since everything in star wars universe is part of the force it would mean that the entire universe would collapse and reality itself would seize to exist either way her plan was extremely stupid the longer you think about it
>>553032346>>553031189>>553029174I don't care much for star wars but I'm just fucking glad there's actual discussion here for a change. thank you I played half of kotor, maybe I'll revisit it

how do I know if I am "locked" in to a certain romance in BG 2 ?i have been trying to romance every character in BG2 and after a few cat fights I have decide to separate all 3 of them from the party and i keep rotating the girls in my party
>>553036096Just download the romance everyone mod.I couldn't tell you, because I did just that on my first playthrough.My assumptions would be downloading eekeeper/whatever the fuck the base game save editors called and looking through the party flags.

It's unfortunate that raszard guy exists and does what he does.It's unfortunate that he chose a character that canonically doesn't want to have sex to draw having sex and pining for his weird self insert character.It's unfortunate that he has now moved on to a second character that canonically doesn't want to have sex to draw having sex and wanting to have sex with his weird self insert character.And of course, it's also unfortunate that there is a troll douchebag here who thinks it's funny to constantly update everyone every day with what that retard is shitposting on reddit.Many layers of unfortunate.

Does the term CRPG come from TTRPGfags who aren't able to accept that people think of video games before table top games when they hear RPG?
>>553068786No it came up in the 90s to distinguish western rpgs (made for PCs) from japanese ones (made for consoles)
>>553068786Other way around. In the 80's and 80's when the genre was defining itself, when people said "play an rpg" most people were referring to tabletop. So the videogame rpg put "computer" in front of the name to differentiate.>>553069309That is the story behind the jrpg vs wrpg distinction.

>>553059529Actually it's Fallout 3 but with a worse setting and less edgy.
Playing Fallout 1 (still trying to enjoy it, but I feel like something's not clicking yet for me)I just got the plasma pistol from Necropolis, and seeing how quickly I got it (I didn't do many side quests) I'm considering starting over with the build I actually wanted to play, and just relying on companions, speech and a small guns skill book to get past the early game. (it took me about 6 hours, mostly of talking to people and wandering around trying to find what I'm missing)The only thing I want to know is how easy this thing is to keep loaded at where I'm at.is this around when I'd start seeing enemies dropping energy cells?
>>553075119Super Mutants and super mutant areas is where you'll be getting power cells from. Good luck killing them without the weapon
>>553069571>wrpgI never seen anyone of importance use WRPG. It's a term '4 niggas in a row' fags force meme in seething anger.
>>553076168It came fully loaded, and I haven't used it yet.I've got a feeling it'll be better than the wimpy damage my Shotgun is doing at the moment.Or by "the weapon" do you mean something specifically for Super Mutants?
>>553076960Run around the coast until you get a super mutant random encounter and try to kill them with your plasma pistol and dogmeat. 2-3 is a minimum group you can get. You'll be fighting dozens of them at the same time. Post a screenshot how it went.
I just got to the halo device.I have to say, RT is really good at pulling eldritch horror vibes out of its ass.
someone told me i could romance an eldar in this game and i feel disappointedi wish they spent those resources on golfing with abelard
>>553076960>Or by "the weapon" do you mean something specifically for Super Mutants?No, I mean any weapon. Super mutants can be a bitch your first time around, if you're not shooting them in the eyes. And the first game in general is harder than the second one. Either way, good luck
>>553077592Owlkeks should do a horror game. They get the vibe
Aerie is pregnant.I'm pretty sure this means she's now a contender for the Throne of Bhaal.
>>553078405>And the first game in general is harder than the second one.I wouldn't say that. At least Fallout 1 has a more forgiving learning curve at the beginning and you can get your hands on a decent gear relatively quickly.In Fallout 2, you are given a spear and told to get fucked, every armor and gun costs a fortune and everybody in Klamath hates you, so it takes you a while to get going your first time around.
>>553077370>>553078405I still think there's something I'm missing about all this.The Plasma Pistol is still a decent weapon, at least compared to the shotgun I've got, and the few other weapons I've checked out this early.Is it just that you're not expected to actually kill some until a few more combat encounters?
>>553079269Fine, maybe. I've just played it so many times that I know it practically by heart. You can get you first 2 guns in Klamath if you know what you're doing. And I never found the Temple of Trials to be hard, even on my first playthrough. But I usually run 9-10 agi builds, so kiting or sneaking past everything Arroyo had to offer wasn't hard
>>553079962The hard part was going straight to Toxic caves to save Smiley with just you, Sulik, and the shitty 10mm you get in Klamath. I dunno if it is a bug, or working as intended but for some reason the geckos in toxic caves go straight after you most of the time ignoring Sulik, so kiting them while Sulik deals damage is the winning strategy
I missed it. What ended up being RPG of 2025?
>>553079651Well, the super mutants are the end game enemy, so no, you're not expected to just kill them early on. If you get lost and run into one of their patrols that's the game telling you to go explore elsewhere
>>553080235the outerworlds 2
>>553080331This has beed a bad year for rpgs
>>553022413>TQNot sure if Fallout New Vegas counts as a crpg, but I've never played it due to how everyone just praises it as this unparalleled masterpiece with no flaws at all, and thus I could never enjoy playing it, as I would just focus on the bad parts. Also its fans are obnoxious, just like Witcher 3 fansBasically always happens with these sorts of games that the internet has a hard-on for. It's for that same reason that I'm only now starting BG1, though at least with isometric crpgs (and VTMB) even the people who love them can recognise the shortcomings, so it's not as badI do still fear that I won't end up liking the game as much as many others have, since I've probably developed some sort of subconsious idea of how the game is supposed to be
>>553079962I actually played Fallouts backwards, 2 first and 1 later and I remember having a miserable time in Fallout 2 the first time around. I had a speech/gun build, so that fucking spear was useless, every gun in Klamath was ridiculously expensive and I was barely scraping by to get my hands on a leather jacket and leather armor was completely out of my reach. Also, in order to get anywhere I needed Sulik with me and I was already broke.By contrast, Fallout 1 gives you a gun for free at the start, it's very easy to get your hands on a leather armor and one visit to Khans later I was swimming in guns, medkits and caps. It felt like Christmas.Granted I was 15 back then, but I still remember my pains near the beginning of FO2.
>>553064984It's a good thing Irenicus is a homosexual or I'd have to hurry up instead of helping some retarded nobles daughter clear out her keep after she let the diversity in.
>>553056661I'd have more sympathy for Raszard if he didn't have a bunch of Russian groupies sniffing his shit and telling him it smells amazing and brigading reddit.
>>553038943NTA but I'm a sucker for anything AdMech, so I love him, even if he feels a bit anemic at timesJust wish he used binharic more often, they made it sound nicely grating yet pleasant, sort of like an angle grinder going through metal (the feel of the sound I mean, not the sound itself)
>>553080246welp, that sucks. (like I said. still trying to enjoy this game)My small guns is at 99% is it good to just keep it there so I can start boosting Energy weapons in preparation for endgame?My other main skills I'm using are Speech at 89%, Repair, and Science, both at 51%
>>553080591>I'm only now starting BG1, though at least with isometric crpgs (and VTMB) even the people who love them can recognise the shortcomings, so it's not as badIt's Baldur's Gate 2 that people adore. Not that BG1 is bad, it's just that the sequel outclasses it. BG1 it's still worth playing though, even if it's the rougher experience.
>>553038943>>553080990I feel he has enough temperament and confrontational tendencies to stand out a bit more than just a passive tech guy.I like opticon as an NPC, but I would not like him as a companion for example
>>553030647I actually missed his recruitment window so he got one-shotted by Yrliet on the arena.Seriously, I only got to know how to recruit him from a walkthrough, because why should I even give this fucker a time of day?
>>553079962F2 tutorial was a filter meme for a reason. If you don't have at least some appropriate skills to brute force it or know to abuse stealth mechanics you can easily get stuck. One of the best and easiest ways to level and gear is to ignore every combat encounter and keep traveling from town to town doing peaceful quests. It's very cool that it's possible, but most players will do everything in order until completion and will get assblasted by geckos and some other meme encounters.
>>553064825Option 1: save your little sister from torture and rape in a wizard insane asylum. Option 2: make new friends. Wield powerful magical artifacts. Become one of the most powerful mortals alive. Undergo epic, challenging adventures. Acquire castles and villages and a playhouse and a thieves guild crew and hundreds of thousands of gold.Bg2's main narrative contradicting what all your impulses as a player makes it a worse game than bg1, despite it doing everything better than bg1.
>>553081140>It's Baldur's Gate 2 that people adoreI see, I seem to have mixed them up then. Still, I'm not really one for skipping entries that connect to each other, so I shall still play through BG1, even if it's a bit rougher.Is it better to multiclass or just use single class in BG1? I know you only get to around lvl 7
I still have no idea how to justify some backwards savage from Arroyo that barely comprenehds the idea of "money" having an indepth knowledge of science, medicine and energy weaponry.
>>553081530Depends on whether you pick a human or not, because there are different types of multiclassing depending on a race.If it's your first time playing BG1 just go with a single, straightforward class, like paladin or ranger. Or maybe a wizard if you are ballsy enough.Human-specific dualclassing in AD&D is a clusterfuck and you can very easily render your entire character unusable if you don't know what you are doing and dual-class too late.Other races have multiclassing, that is a bit more straightforward, but much more restructive.
>>553081228>he has enough temperament and confrontational tendencies to stand outAgreed, and I do like how it makes him really feel like he's outranking most of the other tech-priests we run into, which he is due to being a magos. He also often has something to say, and most of the time it's pretty intresting to hear.
>>553081325One might want an insider to help them out of Cumrag.
who else is high af right now?
>>553082095I don't need an insider. I have a power armor that makes me immune to almost all damage, a space nun that shoots magic bullets that always hit, a xenos pet that keeps deleting enemies with her sniper rifle and an angry space marine.I'll just keep murdering shit until the situation improves.
>shoot a guy in the streets of new reno>you are now stuck in combat for 10 years because every drug freak in the city has 20+ movement points>overwrite every save in friend's game with that combat encounter while he is away to pee
>>553081909Aight, thanks anonI've heard that keeping paladin oaths is a bit finnicky in BG1 and 2 (or was it TOEE?), so I'll probably go ranger then
>>553082361Turn based combat really is the worst.In real time that whole encounter would have been over in 2 minutes.
>>553060710Valygar is honestly pretty great. Though as a stalker ranger you need to micromanage him to start fights with a backstab to get the most out of him. He stays relevant all the way through ToB even into backstab immune enemies since he can be your Armor of Faith, Hardiness, Defender of Easthaven guy (Stacked physical damage resistance). Personality wise he's got his "Fuck mages" thing, but he's one of the more rational and grounded companions. He's also the one companion with the ability to verbally shut down quirk chunguses like Jan and Neera. You find him in the Umar Hills. Mazzy is also great but she's much better as a doubled shortbow archer with Bow of Gesen and Vhailor's Helm rather than a tank. She's in the Ruined Temple. Keldorn (Temple District Sewers) has a good Paladin kit and can serve as frontline for you at lower difficulties as well as being a big fuck you to mages. Finally in ToB only there's Sarevok. I generally don't use him personally, but he's a pure fighter with great stats. EE companion wise Dorn is meh and Rasaad is ass since he's a monk. I wouldn't bother with either.
>>553082370It's really not. Just don't be stupid evil and don't murder innocent people for no reason. And keep your reputation high, but that's an easy requiremet, because you can just donate money to temples.If anything, BG3 is more finnicky with its bullshit interpretation of oaths.
>>553082567I see, perhaps I was thinking of TOEE then, since I recall hearing that you could accidentally break your oath by doing something like drink at a tavern
>>553082370>>553082567Part 2.Adding to that - rangers ALSO can fall, because AD&D demands rangers to be good-aligned. But then again, being evil in BG1 and 2 is an exercise in futlity, because there isn't much to it and eventually the game will just start punishing you for it.
>>553081909>>553082370NTA, but FWIW Archer is the only version of Ranger worth playing as a main character in my opinion. Base Ranger and the other kits aren't that great and offer a mishmash of questionable benefits given the slower level progression of ranger. But Archer is very strong and easy to play.
>>553082641Maybe, I actually never drank in the taverns, because there is no point to that mechanic, unless you like throwing your money away.It's SUPPOSED to give you various rumors, but you get that by just, you know, talking to people.
>>553082918IMO, archer is TOO busted in BG1, because the enemies are not really equipped to deal with a guy sniping them from across the map. They fall off hard in BG2, thanks to a lack of decent +5 bows.
>>553081046If you're intent on using energy weapons, then no need to raise other weapons above a 100
>>553044320
Can you guys just keep your post about russian chris chan on reddit.
>>553083204>They fall off hard in BG2, thanks to a lack of decent +5 bows.They fall off, but not hard. And +5 isn't a problem thanks to Firetooth. You Just need to remember you need to be pumping points into Crossbow for late game.
>>553082361Bro? Your cambat speed setting?
>>553082370>I've heard that keeping paladin oaths is a bit finnicky in BG1 and 2Fallen paladins/rangers suck ass.It's really, really easy to avoid. Don't be an evil prick and try to avoid throwing a fireball in middle of town.It's not like owlcat games where if you pick the good guy options you'll inevitably be fucked, it's really obvious what you shouldn't say/do.>>553082809>being evil in BG1 and 2 is an exercise in futlity, because there isn't much to it and eventually the game will just start punishing you for it.It punishes you immediately with shopkeepers charging way more, there is 0 benefits to being evil but flavor. Any character that's evil won't leave your party until you hit 19 reputation.>>553083508>They fall off, but not hard.Longbows sure do, but shortbows fair way better even though literally every other ranged option is superior because of better damage & everything hitting the attack rate limit thanks to whirlwind.
>>553083846>Any character that's evil won't leave your party until you hit 19 reputation.>Kicking dogs every once in a while to keep Viconia and Edwin in my partyFirst time I was slave to metagaming
>>553082641>perhaps I was thinking of TOEE then, since I recall hearing that you could accidentally break your oath by doing something like drink at a tavernYes, in ToEE doing the drinking conquest will make your paladin fall.
>>553084007These days I just turn off characters leaving because of rep.
>>553084007>yeah Anon sure does help people a lot but he's cruel to stray animals so I guess I can follow him around killing thingsI guess the developers had the idea of the evil characters being pretty strong is a reward of their own but damn does it suck having to manage that crap.
>>553083846>Longbows sure do, but shortbows fair way better even though literally every other ranged option is superior because of better damage & everything hitting the attack rate limit thanks to whirlwind.Yes everyone familiar with the game knows longbow itemization sucks in BG2, but you are allowed to put points into weapons other than Longbow. You have plenty of points to GM two ranged weapons by the time you need to be worrying about +5 weapons.
>there was a crab monster boss in the tunnelsguess the thief queen kept it locked up for a reason.
>>553082306>a xenos pet that keeps deleting enemies with her sniper rifleI am NOT your xenos... oh well I suppose it'll be alright just this once
>>553084007Just turn into a Slayer once in a while. And avoid Tradesmeet like a plague.And the NPC Project had a good idea of introducing bards that decrease your reputation similarly to how temples increase your reputation.
Just started playing two days ago. Was going to do daring iron man and got halfway through chapter 1 and thought i could do it on hard. Did hard ironman halfway through chapter 1 and thought I could do it on unfair.Here we go.
>>553084323You might as well start dumping crossbow at the start since you can get a light crossbow+1 that's 1apr lower than a longbow while also letting you powerspike in bg2 earlier is all I'm saying.Longbows might be busted in bg1 but the other ranged options aren't that far behind to be worth taking knowing the next games going to suck ass for a while.>>553084825desu the difficulty slider stops mattering in middle of act 2The only thing that sucks ass in ironman mode is space battles because before a certain point you can get thrown into one and die turn 0 because you rolled low initiative
>>553084936Meds
It is bizarre how easy RT had been so far. I am playing on Daring and there were maybe 2 fights that gave me any trouble and those were both DLC fights. I just steamrolled my way through Act 3 and I barely got into Act 4, but I already have enough to buy myself the most out-there weapons and armor. I am hoping the game will start throwing curveballs anytime soon, because at this point my RT is unstoppable.
Is WoTR worth replaying for the final DLC? I played up to act 4 when it first dropped but got bored.
>>553084936>choosing betwen the two worst companions in owlkek history
>>553085301It's ok, but replaying just for it? No.If new mythic or mods that add new classes/feat/archetypes/romances are not enough, don't bother
>>553085301No, it's mid, defintiely not worth another playthrough
>>553085294>I am hoping the game will start throwing curveballs anytime soon,There are a few tough DLC fights yet to comeBut Daring is more like EasyTry Hard
The Banner Saga girl has lip filler
>>553084987For fucks sake. Okay, I'm going to assume you're a different anon from >>553083204.
>if le elves and other fantasy race women don't hunger for my cock it's white genocide
For me, it's Nalia.
>>553085383>new classes/feat/archetypesI already did a manticore shifter, hippogriff cavalier and mantis zealot run (that one I quit right after Drezen) which were quite fun but a lot of the archetypes don't feel unique enough to warrant another playthrough. From what I've seen the new magus is shit and titan fighter is another melee blender of which I've already played like 600 hours.>>553085404Damn that sucks. I'm looking for something to play, I cba for the BG3 early game and Underrail is more cbt than I'm willing to put myself through right now.
>>553085802You'd be right, I didn't see his post.>>553085294There was 0 balancing done for the game past act 1The "difficulty" comes entirely from horse shit that stacks stat ups on enemies and they always roll initiative lower than your characters stacking agility.It's a big issue that plenty of other turn based games ran into with alpha striking, but in this games defenses don't matter in the slightest for either side and there's no scenarios that you need specific people to deal with so you're actively gimping yourself if you're not stacking damage.By the time you're halfway through act 2 you're already unstoppable, and then act 4 starts raining build defining gear ontop of you.I HOPE that Dark Heresy's balance is better and not just a tremendous power nerf to the player alone.
>>553086126>For the needy!What a dumb bitch
>>553086404The Dark Heresy enemies seem to pack a lot more punch and can disable your guys in various ways (immobilize, disarm) which you then need to cope with or dispel with an officer. They also have hard hitting attacks that take a couple of turns to wind up that will fuck you up if you don't interrupt themYou can reduce an enemy's position in the initiative queue with an arm attack, but a different attack might do more damage so it's a balance.The "high morale" attacks are per-unit and aren't anywhere as much of an I-Win button as the previous high momentum attacks.
>>553086404I for one just love those boots that boost your parry and allow a character to counterattack everytime they parry.Half of the enemies end up dead on their first turn, because they were stupid enough to directly attack my parry-happy RT carring the biggest sword he can find.The rest get murdered from across the map by Argenta and her magical Emperor-blessed bullets that hit everytime, no matter what.Itemization in this game is bonkers.
>>553086759NTA but speaking of those high morale attacks, I like how the low morale ones also incur a penalty, making them feel more like last-ditch efforts to turn the tide while also adding some strategic depth by forcing you to choose whether or not its worth it to get the penalty to use it now, or if you can still survive and later on use the better high morale attack
>>553086943Those boots (assuming you mean the ones that let you counterattack after parrying with a sword) alongside the other boots you can get in Act 4 that let you kick an enemy if you parry with any kind of melee weapon, as well as the power sword that also autoparries can make melee-heavy teams pretty funny, since you can have three different fellows parrying the shit out of the enemy
>>553086578Her romance mod is cute.
>>553086578She has interesting character development into BG2.
>>553087207>into BG2.into ToB I mean.
dumbass vampireget stuck on the wall, slowly cooking under the sun, idiot
I am just hoping DH companions are going to be fun.RT companions are very fun, but they are a bit conventional for my tastes. I am hoping for something more out there in DH.
>>553087597The ones that have enough dialogue and writing in DH Alpha have been pretty fun imoOf course, such things are subjective, but I'm quite optimistic
something tells me i would just be wasting my time trying to negotiate with her, ill just skip straight to fighting.
>>553084987I somehow made Idira a MUCH more likeable character.
>>553087772So far, I am only having my hangups about Epione. She's such an autist, she may end up being either adorable or really obnoxious.And they are still planning to introduce an admech waifu, and those are autists by default. I just her and Epione will just try to out-autism each other.
and done.
So, the upcoming RT DLCs promise two new companions? Can there be too many companions in a cRPG?I am already not using half of the companions RT has to offer. I don't think I used Jae once, I only use Solomorne when the game forces me to, I haven't used Idira since the prologue and even Aberald and Kibbles are benching once I got my hands on Ulfar and Yrliet. And I haven't even recruited Marzipan.
Who is the Camellia of Rogue Trader? Marazhai?
>>553088457Yeah. The difference is that unlike Camellia he's not really making any bullshit excuses.
>>553024090>Leliana that high in the rankingBut we... all agreed to hate Leliana. Are you being a contrarian?
>>553086957Yeah I had to make that choice a few times and typically chose against using it. The penalty is around 30% iirc, not something to be taken lightly.In the final battle everyone was unexpectedly killed in one turn except Cogg, and he had a Desperate Strike available. With one last punch, he slew the warp horror and saved the situation.
>>553086759>reduce an enemy's position in the initiative queue with an arm attackSorry leg* attack. An arm attack will interrupt them if they're concentrating on something, so it's a choice to be made. These often have a semi-low chance of landing, unless you can stun him somehow. Cogg gets a guaranteed interrupt strike so it's often worth moving him around as a troubleshooter.
>>553088423>Can there be too many companions in a cRPG?Yes, Solomorne was certainly one too many. I'd rather the existing companions get more to do. I don't really think new companions are a big draw for players.
>>553088052I hope that have autistic catfights that sound like perfectly pleasant conversations unless you can pass an awareness check to detect the passive aggression.
>>553088840I have a feeling Solomorne was mandated by GW, given how gung-ho they are on promoting the Arbites now. Something about new Arbites figures or somesuch. Darktide also had gotten the Arbites class.
>>553088750Epione (and likely Haymar as well, since they're both Soldiers, but can't remember) has an area attack toggle that lets her interrupt enemies with area attacks if they fail a Mettle(?) check
thats right im one of the best.
>>553088840Since we get more content along with a companion it's an alright deal. Good for different party compositions across multiple playthroughs and a little interaction variation during quests.Owlcat definitely needs to make another dungeon crawler mode as a a last DLCs and another ultra hard dungeon to play at the end game. They made a mistake of making a them way too early for Wrath, along with that separate campaign.
>>553075106>Fallout 3 but with a worse settingNot scientifically possible.
So the only thing data miners were able to leak for dark heresy was some of the companions and weapons? No classes, origins, talents,factions and backgrounds?
>>553089664He had a vision.You wouldn't understand.
>>553089140Yeah that flamer interrupt attack of hers was doing loads of work
>>553089867Dude, this game is in such an early alpha, even the main menu screen is unfinished. There is only so much one can mine from this shit.
>>553080591>everyone just praises it as this unparalleled masterpiece with no flaws at allWhich is a weird thing to say considering how ATROCIOUS are it's DLCs, especially Dead Moni and Lonesome ASMR.
>>553089883And somehow it ended up being better than Fallout 4.Although I'm not sure if it's because of Emil or because someone like Todd was reigning in his autism.
>>553089867Companion namesAnd a lot of Chorda units eg Chorda enforcer, Chorda guard, and something about Chorda fight so I guess once you go to the spires it's time for a bit of the rough and tumble (maybe you foil an assassination attempt) and that's how Aspys Chorda ends up joining youThere are some factionsFrom left to right>Sister Semptima's Schizos>AdMech>Imperial Guard>AristocratsThere are two kinds of reputation - fear and love
>>553089969I think the Alpha was really just to test the combat system and the general tone of the setting.It's similar in length to Act 1 RT
>another chorda fightOwlhacks
>>553090060Emil actually wrote a time travel paradox story for Fallout 4 (future Shaun kidnaps himself as a baby) only to be reminded that FALLOUT SETTING HAS NO TIME TRAVEL, so he tried to back out of it in the latter part of the game, creating even more plot holes in the process. It's an amazing clusterfuck.
>>553090191>There are two kinds of reputation - fear and loveI will make the Sororitas love me!
>in the Phantom Zone you are terrorized by an entity that has attached itself to you during the as yet unseen prologue, and which assumes the form of people you know, and even yourselfOwlhacks
Everyone will FEAR my radical demon hunter.
What if we can upload our Rogue Trader saves into Dark Heresy and our guy shows up in the game along with Choices and Consequences TM. And then 3rd game will be some other WH40k adventure and it'll become an epic saga akin to Mass Effect.That would be Epic, I think.
>>553090561It should be possible for the Acolyte to cuck the Rogue Trader by stealing his waifu
So, when would we estimate the beta release? Sometime in Summer?
>>553090496I will make her fear me, which is much hotter.
>>553086759>if you don't interrupt themThe only way to interrupt them so far is a grenade or the aoe fire attack, and the latter is inconcistent, half the time it will fail to interrrupt the enemy
Sell me on Night Lords.What is their deal outside of being edgy slavs in power armor lead by evil space Batman?

>>553036362Owlcat is literally Mihoyo of crpgs.Genre that was originally male-only is now plagued by biological women and faggots that seethe at most basic shit imaginable.You may think it's not important now but Owlcat nearly released a woke game yet backtracked last second before alpha and decided to make the chocolate medic attractive."Sisters" are not even 10% of total playerbase yet we're already forced to deal with "diversified" cast. And if devs are doing "diversified" companion - that's one less "based" companion.
>>553090191Wait are these proper Sisters of Battle or are we stuck with "well uhm actually" again like Argenta?
>>553090740Shoot them in the arms with a precise attack. That's what I've been doing. I didn't even know about the grenade option. There's also Cogg's ability that never fails.
>>553091265What kind of mental illness is this?
>>553091281They seem proper. She and her little group were sent there to help the unfortunate but she's come to suspect that maybe she should just purge everything in sight. She has a fit when she sees you with Ra'akhti and Laarthyr, but she doesn't dare touch you though because daddy Zerbe would spank her thoroughly.
>>553091265>Owlcat nearly released a woke game Are you implying previously owlcat games weren't woke?
>>553090865>Who is the Nenio of Rogue Trader?Epione is the Nenio of Dark Heresy
>>553091282Sure precision attacks work, but the chances of hitting them are about the same as fire aoe, so not consistent enough. The fucking elf battle took me forever because of that
>>553091576Diviner Wizard bros we're going home
Underrail should have been a rtwp game, you can take 10 fucking actions a turn its hard to even consider it a real turn based game.

>>553091682>The fucking elf battle took me forever because of thatI used Laarthyr's Guided Steps ability to give Cogg that fancy extra move power, then had him run up to the guy radioing for reinforcements and use pic related
>>553091849Wrong.
>>553091849Sister Argenta is stupidSister Septima is smartI am going to smooch Sister Septima, but I am not going to be her lap dog.
>>553091970That's only for bullshit traders who got their warrant recently from the administratum. Like that guy who founded Footfall. Quintinus Glump or whatever his name was.Our warrant comes directly from the Emperor and has His signature on it. That means we're working directly for Him.
>>553091682>the chances of hitting them are about the same as fire aoeYes but the range is better with a rifle.

Should CRPGs have free transmog available from the start for fashion? Or you should be forced to wear optimal clown armour?
>>553096117>Should CRPGs have free transOnly if they're sexy.
You can tell that RT combat system is genuine dogshit and they fucked up bad when Dark Heresy scraps 80% of it.It seems they learned from their mistakes.
>>553096374>learning from your own mistakes Not the russian way.Besides, Owlcat had consistent problems making combat good in every game. It's just that Kingmaker and WotR mask it a bit due to the fact that Pathfinder is already just a buff fest of a game, so it's to be expected that you basically win the fight before it starts.
>>553096374This is the reason they've released the alpha so early. To gauge reception of the completely overhauled combat system.
>>553046154PoEWhat a snoozefest
>>553024090keep yourself safe retard
>>553095952>>553096106>Isabella>JaeAre there any other games with vaguely ethnic slutty pirate romances?
>>553096807xoti maybe
Kingmaker with Call of the Wild has been pretty fire, not gonna lie.Summoner is fun
>>553046154PoE 1 was incredibly unexciting to play.It's also one of those fantasy settings that thinks it's smart and interesting to have absurd amount of dry information. All of the characters in the game assume you know the lore beforehand, for dat immersion.
I like games where i can build glass cannon casters that can channel the power of the sun and throw huge ass aoe skills that can oneshot anything but they are extremely dangerous to use and can only do it a few times before going into cooldown for hourswhich game is for me
>>553097387Baldur's Gate 2.
>>553097110PoE 1 is an interesting case for me because it's incredibly uninteresting while on the surface being the sort of story that SHOULD be interesting to me. But I simply feel nothing. It's all just white noise. Eder MattMercering? Don't care. Aloth? Can't remember a thing he said. Durance monologuing like he's a YouTube essayist? Don't care. Pallegina? I don't even remember who she is. And so on.It's incredible. First crpg that actually managed to make me feel nothing. Not even irritation or anger or anything.
reminder that raz has a good taste now
>>553097818I blame that on Sawyer's weaponized autism. He likes his characters dry and expository.
>>553097843>obsessing over some russian incel who can barely drawWhat drives a man to such reckless faggotry?
>>553097937Wasn't Sawyer lead director? Not sure how much blame for weird writing can be pinned on him.
>>553095952Ah yes the confidence and swagger "oh god please help me I'm begging you I will submit to my ex completely if I so much as glance at him"
>>553097818Eder aloth and iselmyr being a one man 3 way was the highlight of the game for me.

Did you guys enjoy an icono playthrough or was it a massive waste of time?
>>553099293It's literally retarded (a waste of time).Just play Heretic if you want to play full retard (actually funny)
>>553099293So far, it's the only alignment that doesn't feel pants on head retarded. Heretical leans too far into stupid evil, Dogmatic leans too far into lawful stupid. I wish we had more options like with Rykad Minoris, where Dogmatic option is harsh, but sensible, while Iconoclast is humane, but risky. Later on in the game, it's always the Iconoclast that's the most sensible one, while Dogmatic turns into a meme run when you kill people left and right for a slightest offence.
>>553099293It's fine, as long as you do not stick to it solely because it says Iconoclast
>>553098963I fucking hate how much From is abusing this shit in their later games. One of the worst recurring problems in their janitor sims, and people praise them for overindulging in it. Well, in this and several other things, but I could write a sermon on it all and how its consequences were a disaster for gaming industry.
>>553080331Romancebros....
Baldur's Gate 2 would make a ton more sense if Imoen was a cute boy.
>>553100043From knows it and they think it's funny.One of the ER DLC bosses flat out says "Forgive me" before doing a big transformation, meanwhile the DLC itself pretty much smashed most of the lore theories and pulled them inside out.A lot of ER's 'story' turns out to be a tongue-in-cheek jab at From's old cliches.
>>553099293I liked it, but going with a mixture of Iconoclast and Dogmatic is the most enjoyable imoLast time I went two levels into Iconoclast and almost managed to get to the last level of Dogmatic as well, but I was missing two points by the end. It was fun
>>553101220>A lot of ER's 'story' turns out to be a tongue-in-cheek jab at From's old cliches.Feels more like a shameless rehash of every storyline, trope and cliche they've done up until this point, to the point it feels like you're being pranked or gaslit into taking it seriously.But hey, as long as it works. Genuinely can't blame From for just farming easy money off of an established audience.
>>553089664It's just not as interesting despite being in another living solar system where you have multiple planets to explore. I'm not sure how you make what's pretty much an anarcho capitalist faction lame but they some how managed.
Commanders, military leaders.., All these laws and rules are but dust and vanity. I suppose I will accompany Tarutccio.
>>553099293Garbage. It was like treading twatter
>>553098029It's the Raszard defense force don't worry about it. You used to be able to make them come out of the woodworks if you posted anything about Marazhai and Yrliet screwing each other or ending up together on Reddit, you'd get a slew of downvotes. It was funny to watch, nobody could touch the Rastard waifu least of all Marazhai.
>>553104946Dude wouldn't survive a day in Dragon Age community then
>>553104946few retarded femcels who project themselves as yrlikek getting downvoted for posting tumblr tier slop doesn't mean that he has defence force, anon
>>553102554Love or hate him, you have to admit he's spitting straight facts
>>553104946It's the fact that this guy HAS a defense force at all that's insane.

>>553106093>game has a few endings where Yrliet bonds with Marazhai>nooooo it's retarded femcels projecting!!!!!!!
>>553024007I started arcanum yesterday and am lvl 15 atm. I couldnt have quessed that a newer game is even more janky. All enviorment is flat. The humor isnt as good as planescape, but the setting I like even more. Philosophy, art style and the wiki is poorer but the fighting between tech and magic is very facinating. Its amazing how playing these CRPG's get my dreams so intense. Ive been having quests in my dreams. Socialising with friends I immediatly think of several different answers and how they can change the course of the conversation.My friend moved to India from europe. I was supposed to go with him but ended up in turkish jail. In jail I just socialised constantly. Im planning to go before summer again to india for few months and have few quests there with friends of friends and people i met in jail. Before in life ive hitchiked around europe for several months in every country. These CRPG's are giving me a lot of ideas for travels. Planning to dye hair black, brown lens for eyes and suntan for charisma. Learning the apu accent from simpsons for persuasion. These old crpgames hold a lot of wisdom that id like to integrate to my life and travels. Planning to do business with electronics and antiques. Make contacts

>>553118315>SpoilerShe didn't really have a reason why. Getting thrown there really reminded her of how vulnerable she is since she's basically just a normal human.
>>553117037I hate you I hate you
SHARTur Gate 2 will never make sense regardless of Imoen.The entire premise of>Here's your default party broski (you're evil and would never use them? Shut the fuck up)>btw Khasneed and Dininghair got absolutely gibbed offscreen and you can't ever ever resurrect them because UUUH YOU JUST CAN'T >Also just accept as fact that you were SOMEHOW captured by some bald fuck and transported into another country (no we will not explain how when or why it happened)It's such a total whiplash from BG1, if it came out today people would go fucking insane from outrage
Dininghair
>come up with a smart way to reach container with levitate up spell>game wasn't as smart as mefeels bad man, containers open from only one direction and to move around in the air I need Fly spell, no just Levitate
>>553121156>feels bad man, containers open from only one directionWhy would they do that?>I need Fly spell, no just LevitateAren't both nearly identical? Conceptually anyway, both just put you in the air.
>>5531208091. I'm not evil and this IS the party you run with.2. Khalid was in multiple pieces and Dynahier was killed and abandoned hundreds of miles away.3. "How could my lvl 9 party EVER be captured by a lvl 30 mage and his lvl 25 greater vampire leader and her vampire coven I defeated firewine ruins!"
>>553121953So basically >Cope>Cope>Just accept that you got rekt offscreen Clerics in temples can resurrect you regardless of your body condition. And forcing a dedicated good party as your supposed friends and traveling companions (all offscreen btw) is retarded, why allow creating evil-aligned characters then?
my party in bg1 was viconia, alora, xan, ajantis and kagain
>>553122280They absolutely cannot resurrect you despite your body condition. When you get gibbed, that character is done and their portrait is removed completely."waaaah why didn't a 25 year old game do all the stuff I want it to nowadays'. go play bg3.>>553122386you're lying.
they finna find out
>>553122957early game shotgun feels too good.
who are the most fun companions to take to cumrag?I got Jae, Cassia, Abelard and Kibellah>ignoring Yrilet cause she's required I think Cassia is still in Terv's test tube aquarium
>>553122386False claim, you either cheated out NPC conflict or you didn't actually play the game, because if you are playing the game normally Ajantis will attack Evil aligned party members if kept in the party too long together with him.
>>553123293Bringing Abelard is just cruel desu.
>>553121481Almost all environment interactions and movement are tied to the grid, while attacks and spell are very freeform. Only objects that can be touched from any neighboring square are light sources on walls. Things like boxes or pillars have a designated interaction position. Until characters can stand firmly in the center of the marked square they can't reach it.Most of the time it's no trouble, just very clumsy since you need to wait for a guy to get in place. But rarely like in this case, if you don't get from a designed direction it just doesn't work.Either they were lazy to code omni-directional object interactions or it was just too buggy. You know like in some games you interact with a weirdly placed object and it pushes you through the geometry. I can see this happening here a lot, levels a quite complex.>Fly spell, no just LevitateI think they wanted to have an early spell to allow 3D movement, but not as powerful as straight up flying, so they added Levitate at lower levels. It only allows moving up and down from the exact place you cast it. Should have named it Hover, would be less confusing.
>>553123293Cassia doesn't have much if you're not romancing her
>>553123768>Things like boxes or pillars have a designated interaction positionWhat a weird design ethos. That's always annoying in any tilebased game, why do it there?
>>553123932I feel weird romancing a navigator. Like... it's not supposed to happen and I'm just indulging in some really weird canon-breaking fanfic.
>>553120809>if it came out today people would go fucking insane from outrageNah, players back then were made of tougher stuff. Their default reaction wasn't to go on the internet to cry about every single little thing.
>>553125386Imagine if GW had shot down the Cassia romance due to lore concerns as well, and when the game released your only choices would be Jae or Yrliet. That would've been a truly horrifying timeline.
>>553125386Have you considered that you have a really big piece of paper from jimmy space that says it's fine though?
>>553125386The fact that Cassia is playable is "illogical" already. Romancing her is a minor concern.
They reconciled - rumors of a collab.
>>553123597I remember ajantis did sperg out and try to kill viconia, but that was when we where in the late game wandering around baldur's gates sewers. I decided my cleric is more valuable than ajantis so we killed him when he sperged out and he got replaced by coran
>>553126091True, and frankly speaking weirder things have happened in lore. But I just can't help myself on this particular matter. Plapping the fish is one step too far for me.
>>553126571Lil Sawyer would drop the craziest bars
>>553023358>>70% of players immediately shot idira out the airlockFeels good to be the other 50%
>>553126091but you can play as navigators in the tabletop
>publicly talks about how good his games are and says he wants to copy some of his ideas>wow sawyer must hate swen
>>553127278Is it *a* navigator or *the* navigator because Cassia is, iirc, the only navigator RT has.
the chaos spawn was much easier than I thought it would be.>>553127181I would, but I want a biomancer/overseer to buff my shadow.
>>553127559>the only navigator RT hasIsn't it a bit too dangerous? Navigators do face a lot of peril when steering the ship. If the worst happens, you want to have a spare.
>>553127559>the only navigator RT haslol
>>553127645This is somehow more embarrassing than the seelie mod
>>553128002nothing is more embarrassing than the default option.

>>553129114Nah, it's shit.
>>553128769also doesn't fit
>>553128649I had Estonian purple Seeleh in mind...

>>553129114They replaced her voice in that mod too, actually.
>>553129332Neither do DEI characters in my rpg's, but here we are.
>>553129416 Estonian purple SeelehErm explain
>>553091281Argenta is a "proper" sister. She is a member of the Ordos Pronatus of the order of Our Martyred Lady.Sister Septima is also a "proper" sister. She is a sister superior of the order of the Sacred Rose.>>553091453Septima's overarching job is to keep an eye on the Cabal for corruption, and kill those that fall to corruption. The Tyrantine Cabal is given a lot of leeway due to the importance of their work, and the secretive nature of it as well, but they still have an external third party watchdog on them from a notoriously corruption-resistant group like the order of the Sacred Rose.So Septima actually has the authority to blast people she suspects of outright heresy, but she is lenient on (you) because you are an acolyte of the Tyrantine Cabal, and you have been allocated leniency due to that job. Zerbe is a smart man and knows that he has to respect the watchdog that has been assigned to his organization, and in turn she respects him as a powerful and influential inquisitor lord who has been granted leniency due to the nature of his work. So it's mutual respect, and mutual understanding that both of them *could* be shitty towards each other if they wanted to, but everything runs smoother if they don't cause trouble for each other. Septima would only act against him when she sees outright chaos corruption. You working with a local xenos makes her mad because she's a dogmatard, but it's not the red flag that she's willing to make a scandal/disagreement with Zerbe over. She's waiting for the big fish of actual chaos shit. In other words, Septima and Zerbe are both reasonable people, which is refreshing in 40k. Zerbe is an established character not an Owlcat OC, and his other appearances he is shown to be shrewd and intelligent.
>>553100890nah Irenicus doesnt strike me as a faggot
>>553129938holy kill yourself, you will never be a sister
>>553129707You have you go back
>>553129695I might have to replay WOTR then. I'd usually give Regill the paladin class because I wanted a Paladin but I also didn't want soul sista shoved in my face. I say this as a Dynahier enjoyer.>>553130048he's literally girl-obsessed.
>>553129495Any mods that make Idira into a proper freaky unsanctioned psyker?Her base portrait is too nice and normal. Honestly, all RT portraits are too attractive. Guess people wouldn't be able to handle looking at actual British people. Everything gotta be heroic and sexy.One of the excellent things Darktide and Vermintide did well is make everyone a potato.
>>553129707>DEInope black people do not exist in real life or in the grimdank future nope
>>553130169You can love women but still have boytoys on the side but Irenicus just doesnt give off those vibes you know.

Does the amount of tubes coming out of your face determine your power level?
>>553130216>do not exist in real lifeIf you look at the statistics this will be true in about 200 years
>>553130098>You have you go backhuh?
>>553130216Not in MY retinue, they don't.Also, a black paladin? give me a break.>>553130298>literally making clones of a girl over and over and over and over.

Some anon hates Jaheria because she moves on from Khalid instantly but no one gets mad that Ekun does the same and he had a daughter. Is this the double standard?
>>553131346Nobody gives a flying fuck about that nigger so no one even bothers to complain about him.
>>553106093Femcels project Marazhai rearranging their guts while Jimmy watches wtf are you on about
Trying to make the Idira the Mandalore figure telling you old battle stories is a big miss.>>553131346there's more reasons than that to dislike Jahiera. Though the harper quest is worth putting up with her for a while.
>>553131346We don't know how long it could've been for Ekun, Jaheira doesn't take a week to flip.
>>553130685>primarchs don't have tubeshave you seen horus or perty
>>553131346Only people who never actually played bg2 think Jaheira moves on from Khalid instantly
>>553131346Ekun does not do that, though. He's in mourning for most of the game and only in the final chapters does he finally move on, and even then it's only one of two possible routes, the other being that he never lets it go and spends the rest of his life hunting and killing monsters to avenge his dead family. Did you actually play Kingmaker?
>>553132184the ol' romance talk starts up pretty quickly.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kspjfsM6DQ4
BG3 really spoils on crazy magic items, right from the lowest levels. In Solasta I'm almost level 9 and only now getting at least some characters half equipped. No magical robes at all so far, only some +1 armor. Barbarian and Sorceress are still in starting clothing. I don't mind it much tho, every find feels substantial.Also surprisingly high amount of social skills usage. Was possible to pacify all 3 major bosses in one dungeon.
>>553106093no femcel imagines they are yrliet
>>553130624>>553130624they're people?
>>553132597Have you been frequently identifying items? Solasta does give way less magic gear but you should have more by now.
>>553132906>no ugly fat chick imagines themselves as the slender tall hot chick
>>553133467>hot chick>yrlietThey project onto their femcel traders retard
we must make haste.
>>553130606>Also, a black paladin?Why not?
>>553134182You know the qualities that make a paladin, right?
>>553129938>She is a member of the Ordos PronatusYes, she's a diet version of proper Battle Sister
>>553134384Your point?
>>553130885take a shower.
>>553133308Yeah, I picked up auto-identify perk. Getting a lot of magic consumables and recently constant +1 equipment. Sell most of it, so at least it's good money. Mostly wearing trinkets. I'll buy some crafting parts form vendor to properly upgrade I think. Buying magic items directly is stupid expensive.
>>553134668You know my point.
is it ever explained why Marazhai learned monkghei tongue in the first place, while every other drukhari don't?is his hobby learning random languages? especially because a lot of people carry instant translators
what?
>>553134886No, I do not. Explain, don't be coy.
Holy fuck, that Hellbrute.I mean, it went down relatively quickly, because my party kept hitting like a squad of trucks, but it wasn't before it wiped out my whole gang, leaving only Ulfar standing.And then Ulfar solo'd it, the two remaining CSMs and the rest of the cultists.Fine, GW, I'll buy the Space Wolf figures.
>>553090834they run away a lot and pretend they aren't jobbers
ehehehehe look i posted it again!
I loke yirlet and marazhai because they call idira a monkey
I get triggered every time they mispronounce mon-keigh.It's "mon-kai", not "monkey".
>>553136178They do not. Eldar use the term "mon-keigh" for sentient aliens that are less developed than they are (which is pretty much everyone but Necrons) which just happens to sound superficially similar to the human word "monkey". The official GW approved pronunciation isn't even the one used in Rogue Trader, it's apparently pronounced less like monk-key and more like monk-hai.>>553136581Maybe Yrliet and Marazhai have accents :^)
>>553135232Yes, it is, you can ask him directly and it was basically a punishment as some sort of failure on a raid when trying to order humans about. They implanted the knowledge of our tongue directly into his brain.
>>553136581it is monkey though. the whole point is that the space elfs call you monkey
>>553090834they're the best baby killers on this side of galaxy
>>553130179Doubt it. In my search for extra content mods (converting companions to heresy) I discovered that the modern mod scene is nothing like what I remember from the age of neverwinter. It's all... portraits. Portraits, item stat fiddling, and porn so retarded you think it's a parody at first.
>>553090834kunrad's crew went from the murderhobos that murderhobos fear and ruling by fear to just being murderhobos after he died and their recruitment pool became exclusively murderhobos
They say it that way in Rogue Trader because dumb mon-keigh ears hear the wrong thing and their less evolved brains turn it into a word they are familiar with. Pitiful small creatures. The Elucidator is also primitive technology.
genestealer companion when?>I know, lol
>>553137043even when kumrad coward was in charge they still killed innocents for little reasonthe emperor should have sent the wolves against those fags instead of magnus
>>553136789The thing is that it's too much on the nose even for GW.>>553136745Aren't monkeigh some random primitive xenos race that actually kept giving Elder trouble, to the point they keep calling everybody around them monkeigh, because they are salty like that?
>>553136745>which is pretty much everyone but NecronsI do wonder if Necrons have derogatory names for other races. Then again, feels like they just don't even care about anyone enough to come up with proper insults
>>553136754>as a punishment we will directly implant this knowledge into your brainI recall that like 90%(? probably more) of drukhari are actually grown in vats, so they'd have the ability to instantly turbo train them before ejecting them out into the world
>>553136789>it is monkey though. the whole point is that the space elfs call you monkey>mon-keigh>monkeyHoly. Fucking. SHIT.
>>553137305they probably have a very nasty word for the old frogs
>>553137139Why do hybrids always have exactly three arms? Did GW have an excess of human minis and spare arms when they designed the faction?
>>553137305Most of the races didn't exist before they went to bed. Nearly none of them look the same as they did.

>>553137687Good guys?In 40K?Heh, let me stop you right there, kid. If what you're looking for is some "clean cut" morality within factions or races, well best keep on lookin' cuz ya ain't gonna find it here. WarHammer: 40,000 will take every single expectation you have and completely subvert it.It's a little something I like to call "morally gray".First of all this is the 41st Millennium, let that just sink in a minute ;) Here everyone just does what they gotta do to survive, period. It's considered "Grimdark" for a reason: Equal parts grim and dark.
You think Owlcat will commit to the bit and we'll get Black Crusade, Only War and Death Watch at some point?Black Crusade and Only War - I can see them having potential as cRPGs.Death Watch - eh. I don't see it.
>>553137687Necrons did nothing wrong.
>>553137139Iconoclast trap. I like it.RPG's in general avoid doing shit like this but having short-ish bad end routes from some choices ala how it works in some vn's would make said choices like that actually feel like they matter.>recruit gene stealer>smoooooch>main quest changes from whatever to "helping your family">once the quest line is done you get a heart warming epilogue about meeting your distant cousins from the stars
>>553137882>trench crusadegay shit for kids who still think guro is coolreal men play heroes infinite lust elves
>Elantach, my computer has a virus. Help!
>>553137575Honestly, being a necron, even if you are a lord (and didn't get Flayer AIDS or Destroyer derangement) is just devastatingly lonely and sad. The world is just not the same, weird races everywhere, everything is ruined or getting ruined, Warp is fucked. Your race is fucked. Sure, you potentially have the biggest dick in terms of technology and power, but there's no one to wave that dick at, no one to stick it in. Hell, you barely have any real desire to get erect.No wonder Necron nobility goes back to roleplaying court intrigues, or throws itself into the whole "cleaning up our territory" bit it's basically the only semblance of normalcy and reason they have left.
>>553138745And then there is Trazyn, that just found himself a healthy hobby.
>>553137687The easiest way to answer that question is simple. Since every faction in 40K hates each other and is genocidal, you cannot judge their morality on how they treat each other. Instead, examine how they treat their own species and make a judgment based on that. If you use that criteria the actually moral factions in 40K become apparent.
