hi.
forcing your dogshit indie list and obscure titles won't make people talk about them
I played a bit more and I think my opinion hasn't changed. I like the graphics, I like the combat, I like the overarching plot that is being established, I like what we've seen of skills and character progression, and I like the setting (I know this last one is controversial but I just already like star wars and star trek and 40k so we have enough space fantasy and so a grounded one is good to mix it up).But I also agree that the dialogue is the weak link. Don't chat about coffee during a life or death situation, don't casually gossip with the vendor, etc. I personally didn't have a problem with the delivery itself since an average as possible everyman voice actor is fine in my opinion, it was more the lines themselves. It was tonally inconsistent. Which is not the actor's fault.
we should make it illegal for anyone except white men to buy things, including crpg video games
>>564607542I see.
>>564607890>It was tonally inconsistent.That's the tone you deserve when you try to copy ME but without the high stakes and the aliens
>>564607890To me, The Expanse's setting looks more bland than Starfield. Starfield, as bad as it was, had a unique aesthetic it was going for. Expanse on the other hand looks like a budget sci-fi tv show.
>crpg zoomers have officially bought into the woke leftist inadequacy meme that competence, quality and creativity are "white male coded" and use the exact same verbiage as fucking sweet babyyou literally deserve everything that you're going to get, and deserve nothing of what you want
>>564608256don't respond to buzzwords with more buzzwords
>>564607890ngl this just looks like a cheaper shittier starfield
>>564608387our buzzwords vs their buzzwordsour glory vs their shameto victorywe are in the middle of a culture war
>>564608256I got Pragmata a few days ago. It's really good. And please stop assuming things about people you don't know, it does not paint you in a pretty light.
Come home, scifi man
>>564608568I played through ME trilogy almost a year ago, and man was the ME3 combat good. Makes the expanse look like a joke by comparison, when they can't make a better combat system than that of a 14 year old game.
>>564607423that's just him being a contrarian, like the time when he tried to force the meme about gayfish being good.
>>564608568I will never cheat on mommy samara
>>564608568where's the horsecock?
>>564609193herehttps://litter.catbox.moe/sri38ty9fxmaymvj.jpeg
>>564608703I think me3 multiplayer was the most fun I ever had with a multiplayer game as well, for as much as a lame fart the ending was the rest of the game was solid
>>564609419>the cock doesn't have scaly skin like the rest of the bodyit's RUINED
What are your hopes for Dark Heresy beta?Sans muh waifusFor me:PrologueComplete Act 1Seeing the consequences of going to each location first and having them be somehwat significant.All companions recruitable (since they are confirmed act 1)Character creationNew archetype revealedCombat barks for companions so we can hear their voice
>>564608568>people seethe about cuckoldry in crpgs>everyone is okay with the literal cuckold raceEnjoy raising a child that isn't even the same species as you lmao
>>564610239Basically the same as yours, though iirc the Beta for Rogue Trader didn't have the prologue that's present in the final game, so we might just get a book section for that.Then again, they might just do what Larian did and have a prologue that's then changed pretty drastically for the final releaseAlso interested to see if they've changed anything from the Alpha, be it combat, abilities, specific fights, etc.
>>564610547other than the futafag no one here likes liara
>>564610547Cuckoldry is having your partner fuck someone else, this schizo redefining everything as cuckoldry is tiresome.
>>564608256you're going to die as a bitter old man
Bellara was a qt.
>>564610239Updated files I can datamine to my heart's content.
Very comfy, apart from the darkspawn
RPG with the best summoner class?
>abelard goes heroic>punches and pushes this logos two screens away from everything else>logos gets up>nerdrage analyses and crits abelard to death with one hit through deflectionprobably would've lost this battle if it hadn't been for my own servitors this time, absolutely ridiculous crit output on these bastards
>>564608256grandpa woke up in a bad mood again
Fereldans like their TALL castles/keeps/forts
>trying to be unaligned rogue trader>end up on the verge of dogmatic and iconoclastAt this rate I'll probably hit rank 3 Iconoclast. I'm going to assume that it was easier to maintain a neutral conviction before the DLCs.
>>564614080>vigils keep>kinloch hold>fort drakonit really do b like that
>>564608568could Asari be made today? They clearly are a race made for coomers (me)
I fucking swear trenchline strategy doesn't actually work. In fact I think it makes cover blow up from any damage instead.
Really wish they just didn't bring Oghren back
>>564615038lmao no. Even by Andromeda they made all the Asari ugly abominations. >>564615429Such a baffling decision. On top of that it completely undoes his little character arc from the base game.
>>564615515
>>564615558Yes, it's quite impressive to flanderize a character from a "dwarf who is drunk to cope with the fact that he was left behind and abandoned by his wife" into just being "drunk dwarf"
>>564615894in the span of a single expansion pack
>>564615515>thane and garrus now cuckold you
>>564615894Well now he's also a deadbeat dad and husband.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xqwUMNRl2w
>>564615429oghren should have died and mhairi should have lived
>>564615429it's always funny to read how hated Oghren is among female DA playerbase, always at the bottom compared too every single character while for guys it's usually Sera or one of those 1 time DLC characters
>>564616451>going from a cute knight to a drunk dwarven slobworst trade deal of all time>>564616517there's just nothing really likeable or interesting about him apart from his connection to Branka
>>564615515Just let me fuck the female lizards, I'm not a furry/scalie but something about them makes me rock hard.
>>564616294Reminder that Abelard plapped and bred that
>>564616517They hate him because he's crass and makes lecherous comments towards the female companions. Funny though that they have zero issue when Zevran does the same exact thing. It really is that one HR meme.
>>564610239Did RT beta have any early romance content? If so I wanna see that or at least datamine who is romancable
>>564607885why do you get so assmad when people discuss crpgs instead of fotm cinemaslop
>>564616593>there's just nothing really likeable or interesting about himyou aren't suppose to like him, he's a failure of a dwarf that has massive issues with alcohol to cope with his depression and self hatred for being left by Branka, his good ending in Awakening is him overcoming those problems and avoid being a deadbeat father and saving his relationship with a woman that really do love him
>>564617195it's just 1 guywho has beef with frogtard
>>564615558>made all the Asari ugly abominations.Always had been. Liara being made intentionally too humanlike + off-model fanart had lots of people tricked
>>564610991>I love my asari daughters, bigot!
Liara rapes you
I rape Liara
>>564610956I thought he shipped femboy Shepard with Samara, not Liara
>>564618137Your Samara is missing her trademark eyebrows.
>>564617195>when people discuss crpgsthat's the thingforcing your dogshit indie list isn't making people talk about these indies
Seems like melee is just better than guns in Rogue Trader. Unless I'm missing something.
>>564618137Both the Futafag and Mommyfag love Samarabut Mommyfag isn't into dicks>>564618297This is Futafag>>564609051This is Mommyfag
>>564618715No I'm not futafag he's a plague and has shit taste
>>564618408I think you are legitimately unwell
>>564618670runny makeup post blowjob
There are people posting itt who unironically enjoy veilguardLet that sink in
>>564619260not physically possible
>>564619260
>>564618670see this is what i meant when i said that these games cater to the eurocentric male gazeshe literally looks like a racist caricature of an east asian woman straight from the 1940's
>>564616709that makes him gayer than sosiel
>>564619260I didn't enjoy Veilguard, I actually never even finished it because I got so bored of it. I just think Bellara is cute.
imagine joining the howe and couslands
>>564618715Impressive when people are so mentally ill that other anons can recognise their posting
>>564620063Even more impressive is when the schizos try to call you a schizo for recognizing their obvious posting style
>>564618715thanks for the lore thread scholar
I wanna smooch her.
>>564607890
>>564620054should have been able to keep him locked up in the sex dungeon
>>564616717Zevran is nowhere as gross as Oghren
>>564619260I enjoyed the combat as a warrior. The writing was absolutely godawful and it's the worst bioware game besides andromeda. Ironically it's their single most technically competent game they've ever made. But then it was fun looting gear that actually affected how you played the game and builds having actual variety. Also it had the best hair tech in the industry and still does, for some god forsaken reason. It was a solid 6/10 and better than Avowed.t. pirated it
>>564620818>rapist murderer >but he's handsome and not an ugly midget that fartsYou're not proving his HR point wrong
Did anyone here play Avowed? Almost feels like it wasn't even a real game with how fast it was forgotten.
>>564620985>handsomeZevran like everyone is ugly in Origins.Did you know that Leliana stares at Morrigans boobs apparently. Is HR ready?
>>564621042>Almost feels like it wasn't even a real game with how fast it was forgottenFelt this way back when The Outer Worlds released. Tons of people were hyping it up before its launch, and then it just vanishedPersonally I'm a Pillarsfag though, so I plan to play Avowed sooner or later
>>564620985>Zevran>rapistWhy are chuds like this. Oghren is written by a woman also
cute pussy
I've cleared everything here besides the spider man himself and the demon inside the computer, and I got the cache dataslate. Do I need to go back to the ship to decode it then return to activate this thing?
>>564620348Yeah there's a couple of posters I recognise too, rastard, rape-anon, the jimmycel
>>564621315I don't even know what point you're trying to make. Morrigan being utterly disgusted at Leliana trying to figure out her dress size is just a single line of humorous banter to hit home the fact that she's not a dyke. Both Ogrhen and Zevran have multiple banters with all three women that are more or less the same. Yet Oghren is the only one who gets shit from a specific part of the fandom.
>>564621436TOW is more of an abomination than AvowedI hate the corposhite setting Obsidian deserves to go bankrupt for making 2 of these abominations and a turn based for PoE 1 but they couldn't find the time to make a Tyranny Enhanced Edition
>>564621993>straight to dyke hatred lmao I know who you are Leliana is sexually assaulting Morrigan. Why does no one throw a meltdown about her, is it cause shes sexy?
>>564622202>Leliana is sexually assaulting MorriganIf only...
A quaint farm, if you ignore all the dead bodies and the Darkspawn
>>564622202>staring at tits is sexual assault I know that you're an unironic roastie
>Oghren: Go out, find a girl. Doesn't matter who, as long as there's no pants involved.>Alistair: What makes you think I haven't?>Oghren: I can smell purity a mile away. It's a talent.Oghren would smell so much "purity" here
>>564622430if Oghren did it, femoids on reddit or tumblr or who ever you hated today wouldn't call it sexual assault then
>>564622616They would because they're roasties too
>>564616709I think she would allow Abelard and RT double team her
>>564622803missing the point
>>564622147The setting in TOW is indeed awful, I have no idea why they thought people would like it
>>564622202>lmao I know who you areAnd I know who you are since out of everything I said you immediately took issue with that. I know this makes you seethe for some reason but Morrigan is 100% straight.
>>564622978>zoomer tooIt's terminal
>>564623024I don't care about fucking Morrigan
>bioware posting I know what you are.
>>564623058
>biowareReplaced by owlCHADS
>Mass Effect without aliensIt's like pizza without tomato sauce and cheese innit
>>564623476but but the voice acting bad!
>The Setting: First GameWhy do they do that?Just keep it simpleLike Ass Effect and Dragon Age
>enemy casts die!>you diecrpg
>>564624327I mean yeah, that's kind of the essence of a dice based system?
>>564624327>you cast die!>enemy is immune!crpg
>>564623649expanse itself is boring
expanse (rogue trader) or expanse (the game)
The aliens? cunty elves
>>564624940he probably meant the books and the TV show
>>564621436>Personally I'm a Pillarsfag though, so I plan to play Avowed sooner or laterYou and me both, brother. Just gotta finish up this playthrough of WotR
>>564624940they did nothing interesting with the Coroner's Expanse
>>564623476It's the beginning of the end for Owlcat
bleh, safety training might be a good idea after all
Speaking of Pillars, did no one play more of the TB mode?
>>564624327>>564624428Yeah, it's Pathfinder time!
>>564621698The codes for this thing are in the book event with the abandoned ship.
>>564620462
>>564625920the one with the scouts and one of the squad lietunants being a fucking prankster while the other one was lost?I blew that thing up after I left, didn't find any codes
alright, here we go, only 6 traumas and one overexertion, surely this will be a resounding victory
huh, the kiava gamma forgefiends don't have the auto-retaliate on attack protocols, it's the big makron himself who has thoseprobably a good idea to bring them down first then
>>564628513>huh, the kiava gamma forgefiends don't have the auto-retaliate on attack protocolsYes, only the solo one on the ship shits that out.
>>564625707I'll play it once they update Deadfire with it too so I can play both back to back
>>564630317>I'll play it once they update Deadfire with itDeadfire had TB for nearly a decade now.
Do Ancient Coins ever have any practical use in A Banquet for Fools or are they purely vendor trash?>>564621042It was far from the worst thing I ever played, but it committed the terminal sin of being fucking boring. I was especially biased though because I couldn't stop thinking: "This could have been PoE3."
>>564630442update it to be like the first game
this guy is gonna take another hour to go down>just stop shooting him for 1 turn!the servitors will keep hitting him anyway
ah, that will do it!this can't be good for him, but heinrix feels great
>Anders being shocked and against the fraternities voting to leave the Chantryboy, Justice did a number on him
and that's final. Kiava Gamma has been restored to the Emperor's Light, and I hope I never have to see another heretek again
>>564630442Deadfire’s TB-mode is inferior unfortunately. Dexerity and the action economy doesn’t translate correctly over to turns. You cannot ever get more than one action per turn. They fixed this for the Pillars 1 TB mode. You can build your Deadfire character with this in mind, devaluing high Dexterity, but it’s a little disappointing.
>>564631827>justice I think you mean hamburger helper
>>564632207Reminder she literally changed his entire character just so she can live out her fat fujo fantasies.
>>564632404Hamburger chad
>>564626425Yep, you get the code in one of the paths, forgot which one. You just miss out on some loot, there's nothing quest-specific in there.
>>564614161Yes they increased the sources and magnitude of alignment points
I can't seem to avoid getting dogmatic because any colony quest choices in act 2 that give iconoclast are fucking retarded>hurry up and fix kiava gamma don't bother getting rid of the corruption surely nothing bad will happen!>make a deal with the eldar don't bother killing them off surely nothing bad will happen!
Please post more oooh master van callox memes
I'm gonna play heretic again in the next RT DLC just to see how mediocre the options are
Yo did Owlcat say how many new archetypes will there be in Dark Heresy for the player? So far it's just Mystic, Ihope it won't be just that + RT classes. (Larry has his own too but we're talking about the PC)I get the archetypes are changed and not the same as they were in RT, but wanna see something new, already had 3 runs of RT and probably will do 1-2 more until DH launches lol.
The "black"marsh?Are Fereldans racist?
>>564615429Oghren is my bro he makes me chuckle
>>564622202
>>564640149file.png continues to be the worst poster
>>564640149She's 110 years old you sick fuck.
>>564635145>make a deal with the eldar don't bother killing them off surely nothing bad will happen!Yes actually
>>564640420He pisses me off because I have 4chanx function enabled to save images with original filename so they are easier to then find in folders, but every image being file.png fucks over this
Oh! *drops hanky seductively*
>>564640851lmao
>>564640851Good, I'll start doing it too
>>564641138This is considered the "best romance" apparently
>>564641138
>>564641138>roastie immediately replies madevery time
>>564641407Yes. It's a very accurate depiction of the behavior of the in-universe equivalent of a woman whose only exposure to men is AO3 fanfiction and romance novels.
does anyone know if this would actually work in canon?
>>564641975I think there would be some unintended consequences But by then sister Argenta will have been distracted by something new so she won't have to face them
getting the succ into the fade
>>564641975Maybe? Deterring the warp runs on schizophrenia
>>564641975That's how Emperor cult works in canon, yes. He grants you super powers in exchange for acts of faith.Warp is made out of psychic energy anyway.
>>564642810I understand that, but Kiava Gamma isn't exactly a shrine world, I don't see how we could get enough frothing flagellants there to make a differenceI gave the damn thing to the inquisition instead
Heinrix true love route is cringe. He becomes your simp orbiter instead of having his own thing.
>>564643068>I understand that, but Kiava Gamma isn't exactly a shrine world, I don't see how we could get enough frothing flagellants there to make a differenceJust giving out a call that you need some preachers to rap battle daemons will have ecclesiarchy zealots queuing to participate.
>>564643615t. moid
Any centristchads here
>>564644141me
bah, I'll deal with this shit tomorrow
>>564643615Unironical truth nuke, this is why femcels dump him for Marazhai.
>>564644465Oh it's that area where no one can figure out who did it.
>>564644053I've heard this opinion shared by other females THOUGH. I'm an truecel so I don't exactly have any frame of reference but I reckon women like a man who is commited to his life's work more than one who is only commited to them.
>>564645385women don't know what they like, just ignore them
>>564645385he becomes your master of spies, he's not just your househusband. And besides Inquisition Jimmy is cringe,
>>564645478This
ooh master househouseband van calloox...
>>564641975If they're able the channel the light (=power) of the Emperor through their prayers, yes
>>564637106you know, it makes sense that they'd be good musiciansslanesh is the chaos god of lust and pleasure
>>564645385Are you kidding me? Do you have any idea how much female-targeted literature or otome games are specifically about one or multiple guys having a bizarre and almost self-destructive obsession with a single girl?
>>564645956who burned her
>>564645956What's with Owlcat and giving brown/black women neck injuries.
CRPG girls need to be thicker
>>564646158probably orcs, it is always orcs
>>564646330do you think Jae ever fantasized about some BOC
>>564645968>>564644040my expectations would be that for every genuine true faith zealot there's going to be a thousand cynics and sheltered false faith fundies who won't make a difference at best and end up corrupted by chaos / be a hindrance to the true missionaries at worst
>>564646224Oh my goodness lord captain is that a female's bottom? harrumpf hmpf harrrarrumpf!
>>564646465No, Jae hates xenos
>>564646330>>564646465>No Ghazghull x Yarrick-style romance where an ork warboss is obsessed with krumpin' (You) and only (You)What a missed opportunity.
>>564646031And the god of perfection so they'd forever be unsatisfied with the melody they're playing on your ribs, and keep starting over trying to get it just right
>>564646224please don't post lewd images of morrigan, thanks
>you cant complete endless paths of old nua on the first visit That's stupid, I got all the way down to level 13 after getting my stronghold but I cant talk to any of the spirits without doing the main story first
Jae isn't even the party and Kibbles is still seething about her.
>>564646926Yeah, you can't. You'll have to revisit it so that you can get to the bottom.
>>564646224morrigan is a twig
>>564640851Nah I copy pasted the screenshot without saving itAlso I'm not the only anon who has file as filename it's the default for 4chanX
>>564646863>all that eldar x human shit running around>when the true romance has alwas been right in front of ushas there ever been a greater lovestory?
in preparation for Dark Heresy, what the hell is the point of being a non-psyker inquisitor? Yes I know that non-psyker inquisitors exist, but against anything that isn't aliens they would be at a massive disadvantage without sanctic powers. That's what makes the grey knights as strong as they are.
Is it possible to get the Scalander Wrack route if you don't get rid of Yrliet in Act 2?
>>564646926I mean the dragon will wreck you unless you gets some levels and gear first
>>564647539I guess there are a lot of non-psychic heresies, and thus plenty of work to go around
>>564646916Maşallah, my beautiful wife...
>>564647547Nope. Unless there's a mod for it.
>>564647560>TIL there was a dragonI suppose I can't be surprised about getting spoiled in /crpgg/And its not like anything in the first 13 levels was a threat aside from the undead on level 8
>>564647769¨>non psyker heresies99% of those are just shitters being disloyal to the imperium, there's a hundred branches of the imperium to deal with that shit
I miss my wife Tali. I'm going to play Mass Effect again.
>>564648142don't forget to blow up the council this time
I miss my wife Regina. I'm going to look at that 1-second-long webm of her again.
>>564607885Maybe, but it might give people ideas for what to play next
>>564648142Sh's waiting for you
i dont have a wife
I miss my wife IsabelaI'm going to imagine her cucking me again
>>564610239I want to see more or less full character creation. They still haven't said anything about what changes and additions to expect there
I miss my wife Visas' loading ramp
I miss my wifeRecalibrating my sights
>>564647539After finishing RT as a pyromancer I can't imagine playing as a non-psyker. Imagine being some fucking normie who can only shoot a gun or swing a sword instead of commanding the powers of warp.
>>564614080I liked upgrading Vigil's keep a lot. I only wish we could also restore Dragon's Peak and have 2 bases of operation
>>564648990>Dragon's PeakSoldier's Peak?Yes, that would have been quite nice for it to have an actual impact rather than just end up as a place with some merchants.
>>564615429Oghren is based. Only femoids and trannies hate him
>>564648483no it won't neck yourself frogshit
>>564648142I am going to try to play as memeguard next time
>>564616198Does getting uncontrollable flashbacks of your wife count as cuckoldry?
female drell romance when?
>>564647398Bromance mogs regular romance so hard it's unreal. This is what owlshart games severely lack and why they will never surpass bioware - they have no bromance akin to Shepard and Garrus/Wrex
>>564649683Fujos believe in the same thing too
>>564649683Regill counts as bromance I think
does flying back and forth on unsafe routes advance colony progression or not?
>>564649304Don't bother in ME1. ME2 is hit or miss. ME3 is where the fun happens.
>>564649842No, fujos are incapable of understanding bromance. They see two man being bros and immediatly their addled mind jumps to sex.
>>564649858lolno
>>564650012even engineer is fun in me3
>>564649858so does heinrix and pasqalthe company that literally can't write a bromance to save their lives is Larian, for all intents and purposes BG3 is best played with the love interest of choice and all other companions mysteriously deleted from the game entirely (not even killed, just non-existent)
Did they buff the phase spider boss? I barely survived this time (lvl 3), but it was fairly easy 3 years ago
>>564649858>Your opinion is wrong>Fucking bleedingheart, just kill the wounded already>I am surrounded by retardsSome "friend"
>>564648083Ah crap, sorry.
>>564650174>so does heinrix and pasqalalso no lolOwlkeks are so desperate for a bro, when the truth is that there is none
>>564650012ME2 is great for vanguard, it's difficult enough to punish you for being reckless but also rewarding when you're skilledME3 makes vanguard too easy because of the cooldown reduction, biotic combos and nova spam
Even andromeda has fun shooting gameplay than expanse
>>564650151Turrets and Drones are fun but let's be real, nobody wants some gigachad space war hero to be a fucking Engineer. Leave that to Tali.
>>564650084Why not? For aeon and devil at least it should.>>564650174No way fag. Jimmy could have been a bro if they didn't lock all his charcter progression and background behind romance. And Pasqal is a sociopath and severely autistic to boot
>>564649683Larry will be a bromance
>>564650195yes, he's that friendI am that guy in my friend group and everyone is friends with me, because they know I will do what needs to be done and not be a moralfaggot social puppy snotnosed shitdeath to the enemies of order
>>564610239>Prologue50/50>Complete Act 1Likely>Seeing the consequences of going to each location first and having them be somehwat significant.50/50 chances are they might cut some stuff till full release, alpha had very little companion input from some characters for example>All companions recruitable (since they are confirmed act 1)Likely>Character creationLikely - RT beta had it>New archetype revealedLikely - assuming mystic is not the only non-RT one>Combat barks for companions so we can hear their voiceLikely we might even get some VO
Eder, Varric, and Ifan (beams at you) are bromances. Alistair too I guess but you babysit him too much.
>>564650464The mere concept of having a friend, let alone a bro, is completely alien to Regill, it doesn't matter if you do literally every single thing he wants you to do, he would still kill you without hesitation
>>564650174rt doesn't have any bro
>>564650478Let's hope so. He seems alright so far
>not being a sentinel
>>564649959I don't think it matters if the route is unsafe or not
>>564650401>>564650151engineers are for femshep that cheats on kaidan with jacob and has to settle for traynor in the end
>>564650526>we might even get some VOfor some dialogues*, though most probably won't so they can change shit for full release
garrus is the only good bro character bioware has ever made
>>564650582>he would still kill you without hesitationYes, I would want my bro to do this if i ever strayed from the path of lawtism. This is the biggest sacrifice a bro can do for you
>>564650620try playing sentinel in mass effect 1 without weapons training of any kindyou WILL wear light armor, you WILL shoot a tiny pistol, and you WILL feel like a girl (or beta male)
>>564650620too safe, too boring no wonder gaydan is a sentinel
>>564650725
So when is solasta 2 fully releasing?
>>564650889LE fixed itnow everyone can use rifles
>>564650725>Hi, I'm Garrus Vakkarian and this is my rectum
>>564651028rex is uncle coded though
>>564650725You meant Conrad right? He literally jumps in front of a bullet for you. g*rrus would never.
>>564651142begone femoid
>>564651446Conrad is a simp. Simps can't be bros. I appreciate the devotion but that's not enough to make him a bro
>>564651446>g*rrus would neverI think he very much would
So 3 questions for you anons:1. Which upcoming CRPG are you anticipating the most?2. Which non-crpg RPG are you anticipating the most?3. Which non-RPG game are you anticipating the most?
>>564651482>he doesn't know
>>564650526Beta when
Is Solasta worth playing?
>>564651746what?
>>564651482Report to the general as soon as possible

>>564652151>The Life and Suffering of Prince JerianBased CYOA Chad
>>564650725the funniest thing about Garrus is how he went from being a beloved character in the bioware fandom to being compared too burger cops and getting the ACAB stamp
>>564652520I never buy EA
>>564652637>to being compared too burger cops and getting the ACAB stampI don't spend enough time browsing normalfag sites like reddit to know this was a thing

>>564652637>to being compared too burger cops and getting the ACAB stampBiodrones are becoming more and more deranged with each day especially on xitterromancing Tali is now seen as problematic then somehow Samara got cancelled for being too Zionist coded and even joker and vega were cancelled for their jokes
>>564652637That's just redditshit. He's still the most popular bro character in Mass Effect and in RPGs in general. That's like saying Tali isn't popular because the same people seethe and shit themselves over her not being gay. The small mentally ill minority of a fanbase no matter how vocal are not indicative of the rest.
>>564653243>romancing Tali is now seen as problematicTali always had roastoids seething about her due to this, it's just that now it's more accepted (sadly) to complain about it
>>5646517271. The WoD Hunter game2. Fallout 3/NV remake3. Dispatch Season 2/ TWOU 2
>>564653347Not going to post screenshots and shit up the thread but there was a big Tali thread on plebbit recently and half of it were crying because the "bigots" robbed them of FemshepxTali back in 2009.

oh come on, there's no way the techpriests present would fall for such a cheap trickin fact I wouldn't even blame pasqal if he ratted me out for this chicanery
Do they ever explain why Merril turns into a completely different character from how she was in Origins? Brain damage?
>>564655386Xister, your Cousland is a Grey Warden, and thus sterile
>>564654037for once i agree with rapefagimage all the hate sex you can have with her as a human male noble

>>564657351Yet Alistair's cum doesn't cure a Femwarden.
>>564657828the book came later
>>564654551Sure. Here's another big post crying about how Femshep got done dirty. It's all they talk about.
>>564657828because he's half elven and not pure blooded like maric

>>564657828That's what FemWarden keeps telling everyone so other wardens wont steal her man.
>>564658048I took a look, it's mostly regarding Jack. Nobody is clamoring for Tali to be gay. They're just seething two decades later that Jack is only into maleshep.

I know there's already another DAO poster here but I'm almost done with the base game. For the DLC should I bother with the Golem one? Awakening is given and so is Witch Hunt given I romanced Morrigan. But the others seems very meh.
>>564659493I didn't. Anything related to deep roads is a skip unless they have cute dwarves.
>>564659493If you're going to replay Origins at some point, then it might be worth it just for the extra items you get.Leliana's Song is especially good because Battledress of the Provocateur is a really good armor piece.
>>564658690Miranda is garbage
>>564659698>>564659727I'll probably do Golems after Awakening then.
>>564659493>For the DLC should I bother with the Golem one?I liked it. It has the haradest boss in the game, and also ties up nicely into the second game in a way that is not immediately apparent. Although I was not a fan of literally who companions
>>564659493The golem one is mostly a combat challenge dlc isn’t it? It’s safe to skip
>>564660129golems is good to do once to get the high regard of house dace, but kind of pointless if you're not starting another origins playthrough
Good fucking god is Greedfall 2 boring.
>>564659493golems has the only hard fight in the entire game
fucking pink horrors dodge and parry spam
>>564661252Right I still need to finish it. Miracle the game even released.
>>564659493Try to do Golem's boss battle on nightmare. Literally the hardest boss in the entire franchise.
>>564659727I never understood when you are supposed to do the DLC because the game just throws OP armor and weapons at you if you do them before starting the main game
>>564662661you could always just not use the items
>>564658048femshep already wins with Garrus and frog dude, who cares about the fucking shuttle pilot lmao

Owlcat should have just stuck to adapting table top games, we could have gotten a world of darkness and a exalted game instead of some mass effect clone.

How much longer until we get a owlcat rogue like?
>>564673345the dungeon dlc for pathfinder games had a rogue like mode
>>564672331Make them stop
Why doesnt owlcat just make a original IP? It would solve alot of their problems.
more games should have female love interests throw actual bitchfit tantrums for seemingly innocuous comments or friendzoninggale's reaction when you tell him the sex was fine should be included in every romance with a female character
I hope that most of these see a lot of use so they aren't like commerce in RT which only shows up a few times.
>>564674309>Interrogation and Intimidation are separateHuh
>>564674453Proper interrogation often is a lot more subtle than just intimidating the subject

What are some good mods for WOTR?

I saw people defending Hulrun because Ember turned out to be a witch and the visions the desnans received were actually from a demonBut this is just idiotic logic, no?Because while Ember is a witch, her patron is an empyrean lord and she is good aligned. Not to mention that her father certainly wasn't one and got burnt because of their race regardlessAnd while the vision the desnans received was indeed from a demon, Arueshalae, it was correct and approved by Desna herself. And it also got confirmed by outside sources, the storyteller. I don't get why people suck Hulruns dick and try to whitewash him he was in the wrong period and not just in hindsight
>>564682158Amiri
>>564683835Because they suffer from chronical lawtardism, they feel compelled to defend him because he's a lawful neutral character and he's feuding with chaosfags
Yes I worship chaos (the emperor)
>2 different groups confirmed that there might be something wrong with the wardstones that might warrant an investigation>nahhhhh dude I'm not even going to investigate that would be heresy or something>killing innocents while cultists run rampant?>sign me up!Kenabres is filled to the brim with undercover cultists, but somehow Hulrun manages to miss all of them and target people working for good insteadMakes you wonder what his paranoia is good for
>>564684362>Makes you wonder what his paranoia is good forHis zealotry is his biggest flaw unironically, he literally dismisses both warnings because he thinks it's blasphemy to say that a gift from his goddess could ever malfunction
>>564683835It doesn't even really make sense that he would doubt Desna. Owlcat feels like they have a bit of a problem writing the crusaders and the angel route in general like they're Christians and forgetting that there's a pantheon.

I-Is that the new funny numbers?Is 67 even relevant with the youngsters these days or have they already gotten tired of it?I dont even get why it's funny but it has sadly become a brainworm for me too
>>564693362Dos2
>>564695524Oh no 67 is a boomer thing now
>>564695524>Is 67 even relevant with the youngsters these days or have they already gotten tired of it?They still recognise it, but no longer repeat it. Sort of like what happened to 420 or 69t. Spent last autumn and this spring at a teacher trainee school teaching 13-15-year-olds
Can I get away with just having one half wizard in Icewind Dale?I'm thinking of having my party be Fighter, Cleric, Thief3/Mage Dual, Ranger, Paladin, and maybe another mage or thief.The thing is, I've got this weird prideful roleplay idea where my main character is the de facto Wizard of the group, but I also don't want to be stuck just throwing rocks and swinging a stick for most of the game.How good is magic, and can I comfortably start off as a Thief to shift focus without too many drawbacks. (Or I could just multiclass as a half-elf Mage/Thief)Also, what else would fit for that last slot of the party?
Is Fall of Avalon worth $30?
>>564697332I'm also interested in knowing, but also Skyrim is still my favorite RPG. (for it's RPG elements, that is. Elden Ring is my favorite game for the combat)
>>564696523A Thief->Mage dual done at level 9 or so just to have adequate locks and traps is pretty much a single class mage equivalent once you complete the dual. They can absolutely be your primary or only arcane caster. Thieves level fast enough that the exp impact is mostly irrelevant long term. A thief/mage multi is a different story and is kind of its own thing. The thief side feels like a full thief, but the mage progression is significantly hampered. Regardless though, magic is generally the strongest thing you can be doing in 2nd ed. Rather than another mage or thief, if you want some backup arcane casting consider a Bard (Vanilla Bard or Skald) for bard song and spells. The Song would be especially potent in a party with that many martials.
>>564698102This HAS to be bait.
>>564698638nah, I just think it's fun, and works well for what it's trying to be. A simple dungeon crawler where you fight monsters with your choice of magic or weapon, then explore and live in the world as you find your next adventure.My second favorite Elder Scrolls is Daggerfall for similar reasons.
>>564697332Writing overall is mediocre to satisfactory. Handful of genuinely good quests per large area of the game (divided into 3 mini 'open-worlds'). The exploration and general aesthetic/worldbuilding is nice. I played it until the end and would say it definitely felt worth the money I paid for it (got it at a 30% off discount IIRC). Wouldn't revisit it honestly, whereas I find the laat 3 Elder Scrolls games pretty repayable and those are definitely what it is most comparable to.
>>564698632that's kind of what I was expecting, but how long will it take to get all the way to the point that I can use my Thief skills again?I had assumed a 3 for the Thief level so I could get some weapon proficiency and maybe a bit more skill in finding/disarming traps.I might just have a full thief for those aspects, and go fighter->mage instead. The character I'm thinking would fit more as a thief though.I think I might just have both. My main could be the Mage who can still use a bow and sword, and the Thief would be a Thief who can also cast a spell occasionally.I just realized that I'm now writing fanfiction of the Bhaalspawn finally getting to fuck his sister.
>>564697332It's okay but the combat is pretty shit because they decided to just slap a parry on to skyrim's terrible combat and everything other than the combat is basically just there so they can say it's there to draw in skyrimfags
>>564699090I really need to proofread my posts more. that was a travesty of formatting. I said "I might just" twice with different ideas back to back.Maybe I should start scrolling 4chan less, and start reading more proper literature. Like Planescape: Torment.
>>564689609dungeon siege is about getting a posse together and beating up things in the wilderness
>>564687089
>>564699090A level 3 thief is basically just short bow proficiency. The skills are going to be negligible, but so is the exp cost of the dual. You need to be in the 7-9 range before you can actually be the party's locks/traps thief. The actual cost of the level 3 dual is more that you give up the opportunity to get an extra spell per level and saving throw penalty from being a school specialist mage. If you want a full thief, I'd definitely recommend a Fighter/Thief multi. They're basically just normal thieves but better in every way. Fighter -> Mage is of course a killer class, although you generally want to pair them with another arcane case because the F>M usually wants to be hitting things in combat, not casting spells or handling your magic utility.
Well she betrayed me in the endI knew this was coming though, I saw the scene in the mansion. I thought I managed to convince her otherwise, but oh wellOne last dissapointment for the road I guessAt least my HERO Lann showed up
>>564700027If you'd romanced her properly she would have been a loyal sugarplum
>>564700027You got paralyzed before you could even move WenduagEven Nenio can slap you with her pimp caneWas it worth betraying me for a Vrolokai that instantly dies to weird?
>>564700027>>564700101It's hilarious to me that the objectively best ending for Wendaug (and the only one in which she experiences character growth) is essentially a secret that requires you to take Lann, then do an evil dialogue option during his act 3 quest that insults Wendaug so hard that she has a mental breakdown and realizes that the demons are all pathetic and stupid.
>>564700341Wenduag is retarded and deserves an unclean death.
>>564700101I actually got to the part where I was teaching her that it is okay to be vulnerable to those you trust in act 4I assume that was the start of itThen I abandoned her, lel
>>564700262I find it hilarious that you can kill Baphomet and Wendy still thinks she can kill you
>>564700421She is indeed retarded, but she can be stop being retarded.
>>564700570She genuinely does not deserve redemption
>>564700262>Was it worth betraying me for a Vrolokai that instantly dies to weird?he was better in bed sorry
>>564700646Nah, compared to the average level of evil on display throughout the game she's utterly milquetoast in comparison, and given her "I gained a spine and stopped being retarded" ending slide has her traveling the world killing monsters, she ends up being a net force for good even.
>doesnt bear a grudge over me leaving him and undoing his work fighting the mongrel corruption in act 3He is so much more pleasant and reasonable than Wenduag man
>>564700262>can have watched you fight demon lords by this point>still decides to betray you for the first shitter demon who just claims to be strongerIs she the most retarded crpg companion?
>>564686291No. Jimmy is a psyker with infinite parry and dodge. Abelard can barely hit shit
>>564701371>Abelard can barely hit shitGenuinely how do you fuck up a warrior build
>>564700882>a neutral monk is more reasonable than a retarded evil cannibalWoah!
>>564701791Wendu isn't really evil, she's just very stuipid
>>564702007No she is both stupid and evilNo need to whitewash her
>>564700882I mean yes. The main reasons to take Wenduag are pretty much 1. You're evil/asshole and just want a henchman who is easier to manipulate or 2. You want to fuck a catgirl.
>>564702007Yeah, ok, wendutard, ok
Did you know tricksters can fuck the fulsome queen?Now you do
Are there any pics of Wendu and Lann in the fixed timeline where they aren't mongrels anymore?
>>564702109>>564702134I dunno man it's like getting angry at a wild animalI don't think she's intellectually capable of not making the most retarded decision possible in any situation
>look up what I missed for the secret ending>you have to interact with items in the key fragment in a certain order to get these gloves>items that are not next to each other and that you'd thus not interact normally in the right sequence>there is 0 indication anywhere that you need to do this Devious owlcat, simply devious

retardo here againI saw Pillars of Eternity 2 was on sale, so I got that one first instead. Not a fan at all. Firstly, it's slow. Secondly, i can't control the camera at all. Thirdly, talking. A lot of talking and reading. One person speaks the dialogue and then some other woman reads the actions. Big no. I can read just fine on my own, and if I turn the volume down, that means I don't hear them in the fights and whatnot. I don't see an option to turn off narrator and voice-acting bits down. Not being able to simply ROTATE the freakin camera is disgusting. I don't think this is for me, and I've played the game all of 15 minutes. I feel no connection to my character, because a bunch of words and stats I know nothing about. Didn't care about the story set up because not only am I the "Chosen One", but also I'm the protagonist from the previous game.If this is what every CRPG is like, then this isn't the genre for me.
Should i bother taking deadly aim or power attack if I'm not playing a full BaB class?
>>564709475There are ways to increase your accuracy enough to use them against weaker enemiesBut you can delay taking them if your accuracy is bad in the early gameSo kinda yeah, but if you dont know how to hit your opponents ac despite it dont bother They add an insane amount of damage though
>>564708590Hey so why is everyone hyping up this dogshit empire strikes back movie? First thing I see is some retard called luke doing a bunch of shit. Who the fuck is luke? Was I supposed to watch the first one or something?
Say her name.
>>564708590>If this is what every CRPG is like, then this isn't the genre for meMost games in the genre don't have narrators, and full VA for all dialogue is rare, it's basically just Deadfire and Larian's latests games that have thatHaving to read a lot is something that's common in the genre though, so it'll be hard to escape it if you don't like it.Whether or not you can rotate the camera also depends on the game, although most these days tend to let you rotate the camera. Older ones usually don't let you rotate it, and Pillars doesn't let you do so due to how the maps are actually just 2D planes with 3D sprites for enemies and the like. Someone has posted a short vid of how Deadfire looks like if you move the camera, it's really fucky.Most games in the genre have different kinds of stats, with the specifics depending on the system they use. Generally they follow the same logic, sometimes with different names (i. e. game x uses "might" for physical strength while game y uses "strength"), so after playing one or two you shouldn't have much trouble figuring different systems out

>>564708590>retardo hereyou need to be more specific
>>564710226true, /crpgg/ stands for Classic Retards Playing Games General after all
spooky
>>564709754na, that analogy doesn't work for my complaint, but nice try though, sweetie. *kisses you*>>564709828Thanks for the breakdown fren, and I think you're right about most of it.. I could probably explain my preferences in detail, but it’d turn into a whole essay and I know most people don’t care that much. At this point, I can already tell this game just isn’t for me, so I’d rather try a different CRPG and see if anything else clicks. It mightjust be that Dragon Age Origins is kind a one-of-a-kind experience, which is why it worked so well for me.And from what I’ve heard, Pathfinder leans even harder into the stuff I don’t enjoy. I don’t mind reading here and there, but when it starts feeling like I’m reading chapters, especially when it’s narrated, it pulls me out completely. I think the best way to put it is I like feeling like I’m in the game, not watching it play out from a distance. A lot of these feel more like I’m observing a story rather than actively building my own, and that disconnect just doesn’t work for me.
>>564711396No it stands for Clementine Role Playing Games
>>564711587You're welcome mateTo me it sounds like you might more enjoy other 3rd person CRPGs like Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines or KOTOR, though iirc KOTOR can be a pain to get working on modern hardware
I just want to post here my findings on how to run classic BG1, in case anyone is like me and doesn't want to touch EE.1. get GOG classic BG and install it2. run the game once, and exit.3. run config.exe and configure (movement speed, cache, nodes, etc)4. download and install widescreen-v3.08, bg1-unfinished-business-v17.1 (restore some stuff), BG1 HD GUI-40-1-0-1663539814 (to center the movies and ui), cnc-ddraw (this will fix the lagging in high resolutions)test after installing each

>>564708590>>564711587If you like Dragon Age Origins you might like the other 00's Bioware games like KOTOR, Jade Empire, Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood and maybe NWN.
>>564711587I saw this post and didn't feel like scrolling up so I just read this one instead. What the hell is this dude talking about? He seems like he's continuing a conversation or something but I have no context for it and don't even know what game he's talking about because I didn't read the first post.

>>564712520For NWN play the expansions (Shadows of Undrentide + Hordes of the Underdark) instead of the original Wailing Death campaign.
I wanna see Cassia get blacked so badly bros
This Armag guy sounds cool
>>564712520Maybe check out BG3 too
>>564712448Why does she look like she walked through a blizzard and then decided to slather herself in oil.

>>564712806>europe wakes up
>>564713447mate it's 13.03 in EET, I reckon most Europeans have been awake for a while already
Well Armag. You came out of nowhere, acted retarded, couldn't break my 43 AC with 5 swings a turn, and left as quickly as you arrived but you're alright in my book. I also got the Protector's Robe, which I hear is the best clothing in the game but I really don't want to dip 1 level into Monk just for it
>>564641138Cute little sis Cassia, keep dropping those hankies.
Baphomets labyrinth can literally be lockpicked open, it is not inescapable at allNot to mention that Baphomet didnt escape it himself he literally got advice on how to do so
Ariane's time of the month
>>564716559He actually never escaped it, period. He just made himself believe he was free, i.e. he coped and seethed hard enough that he broke free.
>>564716954Well he also brought the prison with him
>>564717059Indeed, because he couldn't escape it. It's a part of him now, forever and always.
>>564716559If you play Azata you can also mog him even harder and destroy it
isnt a 50 dc check canonically an ungodly feat?if so that is very funny because camelia is randomly good enough to do so and she isnt even a thief
And that's Origins done!Time to move on to the most CRPG game of all time: Dragon Age 2
I have to hand it to you Baphomet that is a god tier cope, I almost fell for itIt is a bit funny that you are threatening me about getting lost when I got her 5 minutes ago and am rushing through the place at an outstanding pace
>>564718381I wouldn't take WotR's numbers seriously. Playful Darkness has an AC in the 70s on Core, and in the 90s on Unfair. No other creature in the tabletop has stats like that.
>>564700341And the end result is that the ends up taking over a bunch of territory until all the nobles she stole from make an alliance and kill her? I mean it is the best ending for her, but I don't think that's what you meant.
>>564718381Even if we take wotr's insanely bloated stats at face value everyone's getting buffed by your mythic bullshit juice

>>564711790who is that next to razaard?
>tricksters can free Alderpash from Baphomets prison by using Baphomets tricks against himCool, but you probably shouldnt free the runelord of wrath, right? Probably notYeah that does not seem like a good idea
>>564724917Yeah but think about how gunny it would be
Do any of the upcoming CRPGs have a chance to make it big? By that I don't mean BG3 numbers, but big relative to CRPGs. Such as getting a 100K peak on steam and surpassing most of the other greats like WOTR in sales bigly?
>>564725901> By that I don't mean BG3 numbersIt should be DOS2 numbers
>>564725901Dark Heresy will have double the playerbase peak of Rogue Trader
>>564726110huh wotr had a little more than rt
>>564726257Yeah and PFsisters used it to say that RT flopped (ignoring that RT came out on consoles at the same time as Steam). Then Owlcat revealed RT sold a million faster.
>>564725901Well Solasta 2 and Dark Heresy have a decent chance.Solasta 2 is a cinematic (animated characters not top down dialogue) fully voiced DND 5E game that will be BG3 liteDark Heresy has better appeal than RT since Inquisition is way more popular among 40K fags and captures the average 40k tone better, it's voiced and has less in your face build autism (it's sectioned into sub-groups)
>>564725901Divinity will hit ~1m players. >>564726257WotR had a massive kickstarter campaign behind it.
>>564693362funny joke.I think the answer would be bg3. It's super accessible and pretty good on it's own, and is a good way to ease into actually playing the genre instead of just talking about it or living vicariously.
I can’t play a crpg if it didn’t get enough steam charts
>>564725901>Such as getting a 100K peak on steamOnly Divinity has that chance.

>>564730192>actual characterlol
>>564729608Did you have Galfreys permission to post this reply?
>>564730192Lann's nowhere near as bad as people make him out to beI was expecting something like Linzi with her constant "Applause, please!" whenever anything happened, but instead I got a lad struggling with the weight of responsibility (both real and imagined) that uses sarcastic humour at times to cope
Not even going to deign you with a (You)Lann is more of a character and has a more interesting arc than Wenduag unless you do her true romance route and even then she changes lessLanns relationship with his mother, his struggles with leading his tribe, and his suicidal tendencies are more interesting than schemer backstabber who isn't used to- and is opposed to "uplander norms" the entire game. His backstory is also more interestingPeople only like Wenduag because they can fuck her and because she superficially kisses your assWhen in reality it's you who have to kiss her ass in order for her to not betray you, and just put up with her shit in general>but she is a sadist in bedYeah and? You still forgive everything like the weak-willed coward you are if you want to keep her around and not (rightfully) exile or execute her
>>564730929>People only like Wenduag because they can fuck her yes the waifufag standard of a good character
>>564730929*masochist You get my point
>>564731110I'm sure husbandofags don't do the same thing
>Lann is more of a character and has a more interesting arc than Wenduagstopped reading here
>>564731513>but he made an unfunny joke!That's like half the characters in the game including this place's beloved Daeran
>>564731183Ah yes the innumerous Lann husbandofags that totally exist have come crawling out of the woodwork to defend him yet again
>>564731760This has nothing to do with your mongrel war, I was merely pointing out that husbandofags do the same thing
>>564731631I don't remember a single unfunny joke by Daeran, just like I don't remember a single funny one by L*nn, and that's exacerbated by the fact that the game treats him like the jokester of the group.
>>564731876>This has nothing to do with your mongrel warYeah that is totally why you commented it in responseGoalposts? Moved
>>564731183>how can I blame women
>>564731987>women
>>564731959The post was a jab at waifufags, is reading that complicated to you? >>564731987Male husbandofags do the same thing
>>564732049>>564732061What man wants Lann
There might be more women who romanced Jacob than those who romanced Lann.
>>564731631Daeran's girlfriend joke to Lann in Act 4 is the only time the game made me laugh.
>>564731919>I don't remember a single unfunny joke by DaeranObviously, you want to fuck him.
>>564732359I don't care who romances who desu
>>564732359The former were rewarded with their husbando cheating on them because he couldn't wait six months while Shepard was imprisoned, the latter are rewarded with Lann knocking them up
>>564733302Do the babies come out normal or is it still 20 horrific miscarriages until one healthy baby territory.
foids will look you dead in the eye and claim this romance about a woman getting knocked up by a mongrel-lizard-man is very well written
>>564733672Yes, the curse is gone after Savamelekh dies
>>564733931no woman likes Lann tho
I respect Wendog fans because they love their monster petI don't respect Lann fans because they can't fucking commit to either half
>>564734669>because they can't fucking commit to either halfwhat does that even mean
>>564733302Jacob is so funny, what were they thinking
>>564726140Are you sure? Deadfire went full VO and improved upon the original, but floppedThe plebian masses need more BG3 style shinies
>>564735348Deadfire is also a lot crunchier than the original which was not exactly very approachable eitherNot to mention that pillars was a niche game for crpg fans and not major audiences
>>564726140>>564726574>>564735348Dark Heresy will sell worse than Rogue Trader and will flop because as much as people here don't want to see reality and will deny it; waifus sell. Romance sells. Romance was the main marketing selling point of BG3 along with the production quality and graphics which served to present the romance better to the normie masses who crave it. Everyone calls BG3 a dating sim depsite the romance content not being that much longer than say the one in Owlcat games. But BG3 put good waifus and husbandos that appeal to various fetishes and wants front and center. Dark Heresy just has 1 mid girl on the cover, which is bad. Unless they market the other 3 women well and they're good looking it will be a disaster. The RPG playerbase craves romance and it is noticable in the comments everyhwere asking for devs to add romance to RPGs that don't have it or with Owlcat DLC playerbase on all sites asking for romances for new or existing companions. You are as a dev literally shooting yourself in the foot with a shotgun if you don't have romance or attractive waifus in your RPGs. People will spam insults and rage at me, but you'll see on release day if Owlcat doesn't fix the situation by presenting good waifus and advertising the romances. But until then keep living in denial about how people who tell the OBVIOUS truth for anyone with eyes that romaces are important to modern audiences that we're crazy.
>>564736182I believe in Larry supremacy
>>564736182what if its a fun investigation/scifi detective game?
Aivu owes me sex
>>564736182yes and Expanse will sell 50 billion copies because of Regina
Shadowheart is probably responsible for a few million copies of BG3 being sold.
>>564736373I like this artist's doodles
>>564736682that's pretty funny
>>564726592>>564737360I think people underestimate the factors that contributed to BG3 being an unusual success and how hard it will be even for Larian to replicate the perfect storm:>BG was a known IP>popular EA, especially because it was a COVID year>drought of fantasy RPGs with high production value>D&D, a familiar setting because of things like Critical Role and Stranger Things>D&D, a familiar game even your niece could pick up>Shadowheart and Astarion, conventionally attractive poster girl/boy>hell, even Karlach should count as the muscle mommyLike sure, nothing stops Larian from doing all of that again, since they have the foundations and the resources. But their next game is not a guaranteed record-breaker by any means. Their EA might fail to have the same buzz because it will no longer be a COVID year with bored people stuck at home. Divinity is simply not that interesting a setting. The non-D&D gameplay might filter casuals. They might (stupidly) decide to lean on wacky lizard companions instead of having an attractive Shadowheart/Astarion.
>>564738424It had funny marketing like bear sex that got people interested
>>564736682That sadly won't sell to the normie masses>>564736702The waifus will save it from flopping unironically
>>564738596sure whatever you tell yourself waifutard
>>564738424They'll have a wacky lizard companion with an animated cutscene where he fucks the femMC with his double penis and a billion twitter posts will be made as free marketing.
>>564738596Normie masses do not obsess over video game romances. They have real partners unlike you
>>564738596why does it have to sell and be a big blockbuster? its a crpg its already gonna be niche
>"we have learned everyone hates puzzles and will stop including them">big gimmick mechanic for the next game is just puzzles>"maybe it will be really fun actually!"owlcat and its fanbase deserve each other truly
>>564738424>>BG was a known IPFalse>>popular EA, especially because it was a COVID yearTrue. But most people got into that EA because Div2 was great. So success of BG3 could offset covid lockdown people.>>drought of fantasy RPGs with high production valueNothing has changed on this front. Larian is still the sole AAAAAAA+++ REAL rpg dev on the market. >>D&D, a familiar setting because of things like Critical Role and Stranger ThingsNo. People only knows dnd by name. 99% of the bg3 players never played a real dnd campaign.>>D&D, a familiar game even your niece could pick upSee above, also lmao.>>Shadowheart and Astarion, conventionally attractive poster girl/boyTrue>>hell, even Karlach should count as the muscle mommyTrueSex sells, quality sells. Div3 will be kino.
>>564738424It also helps that it was easy to get into while still having interesting enough mechanics and gameplay. This is true for D:OS2 as well. Pathfinder is great, yeah, but it's also hard to get into if you have no D&D experience.
>>564738424You're braindead if you don't think Divinity is gonna sell an absurd amount, the thing that limits most games is word of mouth and people knowing the developer. Larian have obtained mass market appeal to the extent where people will trust and purchase their next game even if it turns out to be complete shit. Its their next game after Divinity where sales will suffer if their quality tanks. Is that Sebille's armour?
The ol switcheroo
>>564718509It's going to be funny when your tranny playthrough doesn't carry over to DAI.
>>564740735mogged by Noble's dueling prowess
>>564739682>You're braindead if you don't think Divinity is gonna sell an absurd amountThis was not my argument. I just don't think it's guaranteed to break records, as the post that predicted 1 million concurrent players implied. Larian has not yet reached peak Bioware-level of brand recognition and brand loyalty. They're that studio that made BG3 and then fucked off explicitly to do their own thing. Some casuals will follow, but not all. Other unpredictable factors like release timing (is it a stacked year) matter too. History is full of games like Divinity that could never possibly undersell and did. Yes.
>>564738424>>BG was a known IP95% of the people that bought BG3 had never played the original games
bg1-2 boomers in fact hate bg3
>>564741905thanks for reporting live from the codex, froggy
>>564741905I don't, but I most definitely ignore it when talking about the original games, I think of it as an alternate universe
>>564738770Lann was first.
>>564741905no shit they are not similar games in any way whatsoever
>>564741905Never played the old games but what they did to Shart's mentor(forgot her name) was not kewl. Dont bring back characters from older games unless you add the option to canonize your choices.
BG1 and BG2 should have a turn based mod
>dungeons and dragons>there are like 2 dungeons and 1 dragon
>>564742237It's funny too, because when it was announced that BG4 would be in the hands of another studio BG3fags immediately started crying about how the new studio would ruin their beloved characters. Yet when people complain about how Viconia or Sarevok were handled their only response is "lmao get over it boomer". Peak hypocrisy.
>>564741905Bg3 for one plays better.Bg1-2 are only good for writing.
Long term it seems better to save the council but they're such passive aggressive cunts towards Shepard the whole game it's really hard to justify sacrificing humans to save them after they do nothing to help humanity.
>>564738424I liked the female companions in Dos 2.Males not so much.
So what are the deal breakers for you that would make you not buy nor play Dark Heresy?Meaning at all not just the usual "I will wait a year till they fix it" Can Owlcat do something that makes you drop the game
>>564744301No waifus
>>564725901Bg3 was a random outlier.Even Bioware games in better times didn't sell that much. I guess a ME1-2 tier normalfag bait could sell big nowadays. No, Expanse isn't good enough.
>>564744301No character creation.

>>564744301>>564744660thisgj bloating the game with agonizingly slow voice acting and unnecessarily high poly models only four people ever zoom in to see
>>564744301It's already right up my alley. I've played a lot of dark heresy tabletop over the years and it's one of my favorite games, so this game is my dream game. I loved the demo, the investigations seem like a great mechanic and combat is massively improved, and the new OST is great so far.Even the one complaint I see people make, which is no waifis, isn't even true. Aspyce Chorda is hot, and we have been told that the admech and blank companions are likely women. People are jumping to conclusions.
>>564745142Aspyce is literal cuckbait
>>564745252This. She probably fuck lacerax
>>564745142> I've played a lot of dark heresy tabletop over the years Do you have any kino stories from it and did you guys ever run ported/homebrew xenos or did you stick to human only>and the new OST is great so far.There are two new datamined battle osts btwhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5XFFOW1YDTkhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8H63FIo3HM
>>564745681>There are two new datamined battle osts btwOh and of course the ones from alpha are also on that channel
>>564744301Realistically nothing? I guess Owlcat could really sit the bed and make Act 2 and 3 awful somehow the story nonsense and encounters unfun. That again is a massive stretch since stuff in alpha was good.I don't care about waifus as a deciding factor
>>564744004BG1's writing isn't particularly good though. I know nostalgia makes many think it's the peak of gaming writing, but it's mostly just a servicable story loaded with 90s humour and comedy. That isn't to say that it's awful, sometimes it's quite stellar when the writers stop trying to be funny, but I wouldn't say that its writing is better than BG3's as a whole.I'd honestly rather point to how BG1 manages to have that sort of "open world game where the journey and the story you yourself create is more meaningful than the main questline" feeling that games like Kenshi or Skyrim have while being an isometric CRPG from the 90s
>>564745142
>>564745681No homebrew, 40k is vast enough that I never felt the need, even though an entire galaxy full of millions of planets each with their own species gives you the perfect excuse to make your own species if you wanted to. I usually included less popular races from just mentions or concept art though. Most of the people I played with were already 40k fans that knew little references.We usually started with adventure paths but then branched off when people decided to do something different, which is pretty typical for ttrpg's. We played maggots, faith, house, and a few of the other popular ones so I'm actually really looking forward to what Owlcat picks up from, since Kingmaker and Wrath were both famous pathfinder adventure paths.
>>564745142praying Aspyce cucks you and is non-fixable
>>564744301no waifus no buy simple as
>>564744384>>564744475>>564747156Honest question is this shitposting? Are there really people who wouldn't buy game for the sake of the lack of partners for romance which is 1% of the game's content?
>>564745142>People are jumping to conclusions.Soooooo why not advertise the waifus when everyone knows that's what makes a game sell? this "uhhhh they're withholding the cute girls because... because they just are" logic is huffing copium

Name one RPG in the past 25 years that was popular WITHOUT waifus you can't

>>564749810the companion is most likely mandated by GW to coincide with other admech releases/reveals for the 10th Skulls event next month (DH, Darktide, DoW4, Mechanicus 2) and they are contractually obligated not to shit talk them
>>564741905I like them both. But for very different reasons.
>>564749527well, acording to my guide of taking care of xenos, they're mostly solitary creatures and the max xeno amount you should have is like 2 per species, any more and they might become anxious, any less and they'll feel lonelyDH giving us two but from different species is actually going against the xenos care guide, but if it is only for a few months they'll manage

BG3s success will never be replicated because it came out at the literal perfect time and ticked a lot of boxes no-one else can replicate, including LarianIt came out during corona when gaming numbers at people at home were at an all time high, actual statistic fact look it upWhile dnd had a resurgence worldwide and 5e was seeing higher numbers than everLarian had a lot of goodwill after Dos2And the Bg3 got a lot of attention and positive reviews due to its early access, including from people not normally interesting in it. In addition to the ip attracting some attention (although it was not the reason why the game was big)It attracted multiplayer people due to coopIs wacky enough to be enjoyed in multiplayer as wellWith an extremely streamlined presentation and high production valuesGames like skyrim, mass effect, etc do sell well. Fantasy is popular with normal people but you need>easy gameplay>high production values>early dopamine>romanceThe game is also really good with unique immersive sim like gameplay and mechanics in addition to the turn based. Even the turn based system is pretty free flowing an "exciting", at least compared to a jrpg And with a billion guides any normie can enjoy itThe game being frontloaded also doesnt matter when most people never finish act 1
Revisiting Kingmaker for the first time in 6 years, after multiple playthroughs of WotR, what class would you say provides a good amount of entertainment/isn't already easily covered by the companions? Was thinking of giving monk a try.
>>564641975Literally the only thing that actually works on warp fuckery is nonsense, yes.
>>564747338fantasy gaymers are pathetic basement dwelling incels who fulfill their desires through in-game romancethat isnt a meme and has changed the last 20 yearssad but trueeven normalcattle eat that shit up
>>564749320Dos1 sold 1 million copies and revived the crpg genre before pillars was released (outsold it by 3x too)Show it some respect>>564749293Neither do retardNo, your source hunters getting together in the ending slides as a choice depending on if their ai personalities agree is not romance
>>564752039Most of your companions are built like shit anyway so even if you do a similar class you'll be better. But anyway I think one of the go to recommended classes is Sylvan Sorcerer. Thematic, good spells, pet, and having high CHA is always good for the later persuasion checks that give a bunch of xp.
Eh, it's true that it is odd that the RT cast ended up being predominantly dogmatic humans. There's only one xenos that most people recruit, there's one xenos that most people don't recruit, and then there's one heretic human. The rest are either very dogmatic or lightly dogmatic humans. It's kind of funny.If it were up to me, there would have been a kroot, an ork, a slyyth, and another flavor of eldar so let's have an exodite so there's one of each.I am just guessing, but I'm assuming that this situation has something to do with GW asking for certain things. Oelcat themselves do seem to be genuine 40k fans, which means they would want all kinds of the fun aspects of 40k, which very much are the xenos. I think they got a wink wink nudge nudge from GW to have mostly humans.That all being said, DH is shaping up to be better in this regard. We already have an abhuman and a corsair, with a blank confirmed. And of the humans we have so far, only like two of them seem dogmatic, the psyker and the chirurgeon. Haymar feels "loose cannon", and of course Aspyce is a notorious menace so she's going to be her own thing.I would be pleasantly surprised if the final dlc for RT is an ork freebooter who is looting the processional with you. He's there looting, and he's annoyed by the mutual antagonist that shows up with you, so you join forces, either you pay him or you promise that the fight will be more fun if you team up. Keep it simple, it's an ork afterall. BUt give us a xenos that is not an eldar, or hell, if you do want to give us an eldar, then give us an eldar who is not a shitty asshole like both of the eldart in the game. It's not actually true that eldar are always that way, corsairs work with humans all the time and understand how to get along.So even though I do love these games dearly and they're on my list of favorite games, it's fair to give some constructive criticism and say the selected cast of characters could have taken advantage of 40k's setting more
>>564753078
>>564753078>then give us an eldar who is not a shitty asshole like both of the eldart in the game.I'd be fine with a clown
>>564753078>If it were up to me, there would have been a kroot, an ork, a slyyth, and another flavor of eldar so let's have an exodite so there's one of each.Can I ask you something? What is it about your own people (humans) that you hate so much?
>>564752965Cheers, some kind of full caster was my second choice of character. Will try it out.
>>564753434>self inserts
>>564753434It's a video game lil bro, not everyone need to be humans, just like how BG3 didn't need to have so many elves

I feel frustrated by 40k metaphysics.Physical energy? Useful but boring.Life energy? Tasty for C'tan and tyranids, otherwise weak. Although the Old ones were able to use it to make a bunch of species?Psychic/mental energy? Necrons can power superweapons with it but have no psykers, they are conscious but don't have souls. Orks use it to boost their tech and each other. Do gods come from this?Warp energy? Very powerful but the C'tan fucking hate it for some reason. They were going to build a big wall to keep the warp separated from matter and then eat all soulless but conscious beings.The old ones are not of the warp but they built a webway gate through the warp. The emperor is not of the warp but he's a powerful psyker.Maybe it's too much to ask for a setting meant to sell figurines to make sense but 40k is usually consistent with the lore. But I can't wrap my head around what a "soul" is and why it matters. It's not consciousness so if an eldar dies does it really make difference if Slaanesh eats the soul? Some humans and all necrons exist without the soul so really it's the dying that should be avoided. My head hurts.
>>564751889>during corona>2023And there were plenty of headwinds. BG3 came out shortly after a huge PR debacle for D&D that caused a revolt among the fanbase and damaged the brand and the release of the D&D movie (OGL Controversy). Prerelease hype was low because everyone at the time thought Starfield was going to eat its lunch. It even released early to move out of the way of Starfield's release date. BG3 got huge on being a good game with great production values and great word of mouth. In the end BG3 itself helped rehabilitate D&D and Starfield shat the bed. But stuff like goodwill, early access, and multiplayer is not somehow unique and unrepeatable. Honestly the main limit on RPGs, CRPG or otherwise getting that big is just the production values to satisfy the casual audience. Which IS a hard problem for CRPGs.
>>564753434Ebin reference dyde, all the anons here have surely seen that shitty movie
>>564753692>what a "soul" isIt's the impression a conscious being makes in the warp, and can allow for a kind of continuation of consciousness after death, since dead Eldar in the infinity circuit are definitely conscious
>play through all of Dragon Age Origins, have a grand old time despite plethora of technical issues>play through all of DA 2, still have an overall enjoyable time despite obvious lack of quality control>can't get myself to continue with my Inquisition playthrough of 30 odd hours It's just so boooooooring. Somebody help, please.
>>564754057What's boring you about it?
>>564754047I dunno I feel like the eldar are coping then, the daemons the warp make out of the immaterium aren't human beings just because they were made by impressions of human emotions
you just instantly assume
>>564754057>8(?) different huge open world areas with fetch quests and repeat battles.You play inqusition 1(one) times and never play it again. I would rather play Andromeda to completion again, at least that has decent combat.
>>564754583You think Carver ever had lewd dreams about his sisters?
>>564754643Obviously.
>>564754643I mean, yeah? Why do you think he's so fucking grumpy all the time. The only two genuinely attractive women in his life are both related to him, any man would go fucking nuts.
>>564753692The problem with GW and BL shit is that GW doesn't try to wrangle their writers to have any consistency. Different writers have wildly different ideas for the setting and factions based on personal biases.Hell some fags like Brooks or at times McNeil don't give a shit and just wanna pack the stories they write with their ideological bullshit lmaoYou will never get a fully coeherent lore until GW does a purge of the most malicious faggots and forces the rest to come to an agreement about key factors of the lore. But Gw only gives a shit about lore changes when they wanna piss off fans (see wraithbone change and femstodes)
>>564754583>Not Rogue FemHawke so you can get the tiddy monster sisAwful choice. At least play as full mercanary mage hunter.
>>564754583I read a Carver x f!Hawke fic once and both were sad about doing incest and it made me feel bad
>>564754416Well as far as the Eldar go, they can talk to their ancestors and they do it all the time. They're definitely conscious. Like when they were yelling at Yrliet for having you as her bf. But human souls aren't strong enough to be conscious after death.
>>564753078Gw doesn't need to do anything. Setting is made that way so Imperial citizen will almost never have to deal with xenos.The mc needs to be non-imperial but all cool roles like inquisitor and rogue traders are imperials. No one wants to play Random Joe the Tau/Ork buddy living in some fringe galaxy either.
>>564754821But this isn't even BL stuff, it's codex
>>564754856Well I feel like Hawke works best as a mageand I was kind of hoping there was a mod that let me use Bethany's armor so I could be the big tiddy sister
>>564754970why I said GW AND BL stuff
>>564754754>twoFag
>>564754754He also develops a crush on Merrill. But it's unrequited or he ends up cucked by his sibling. Can't really blame him for constantly seething desu.
>>564754754>The only two genuinely attractive women in his life are both related to him, any man would go fucking nutsMaybe he should just fuck both and get it over with
I know nobody likes or romances him but Bethany trying to NTR her sister with Sebastian is still funny.
>>564754940Echoes of consciousness no different to necron engram personalities. Shaped by the warp but nothing more than ghosts. Their ancestors no longer exist; those consciousnesses are gone, only these copies in their place.Also you arent the real you. He died yesterday.
>>564755003I think a purple rogue FemHawke who secretly resents her sister for being a mage but still protects her by doing the dirty work for Templars is the most kino route in DA2.
>>564735348DH is more popular RPG than RTNobody cares for Rogues Traders, but people love InquisitorsAll Owlcat's Rogue Trader fans which were acquired over time will buy Dark HeresyIt has better cinematic values than RT and thanks to VA is far more suited to streamer shillingPoE was carried by fake marketing of being a spiritual successor to BG. Once it completely failed to live up to the hype and turned out to be painfully boring, it killed it's appeal. Their trick was used already and couldn't be reused. The very same thing that happened to Outer Worlds and selling it as new New Vegas. Once game released and was garbage, their trick was spent already and sequel doomed.Rogue Trader is beloved, sequel will be more successful because of it, just like happened with Witchers increasing in cinematic values and sales alike.>>564736182Screencapping this retardationThose are 40k games first and cRPGs distant second. Even if your faggotry was true, it does not apply here. Other 40k games like Space Marine 2 have zero waifus and sell far better. 40kfags do not care.
>>564755281>It has better cinematic values than RT and thanks to VA is far more suited to streamer shillinglolSo it will be popular both because of hardcore fans and because of streamer shilling it to the normies? that sounds desperate

Are they too big?

>>564749810Realistically there is nothing they can do anymore, other than making sure at least dlc 4 companion is a XenoThey may use Mindshackle Scarabs as a cope that you actually kinda have a Xeno-like companion, kinda

>>564755243>Also you arent the real you. He died yesterday.
>>564754118I dunno the areas all feel lifeless, nothing I'm doing has any real impact, combat feels like shit since you can't actually give your squad proper instructions (like setting up combos and taking advantage of them, like you could in 2), not to mention combat feeling sluggish as fuck and forcing """cinematic""" slowdowns when you trigger combos.For starters.
I have 3 build ideas for WotR and only the desire to sit through the game one more time.
>>564755281>Space Marine 2Not crpgThat's why it can get away with no waifus
>>564755565yes, how is this so surprising? It's Rogue Trader 2 so retaining RT playerbase and acquiring new one
>>564756062use mercs? build your companions with your builds? or are these "build ideas" mostly just making mythic shit even more OP, because that's really not an accomplishment at this point.
>>564755979Don't explore the giant mmo places honestly. I don't remember anything about Inquisition's combat.
>>564756115I can't imagine anyone buying DH because WOW IS THAT A FULLY VOICED GAME IN 2027
>>564756275My inner completionist forces me to. Actually doing everything in Origins and even 2 felt good since there was usually something interesting going on.
>>564756079Rogue Trader and Dark Heresy are 40k games. Genre of a video game does not matter. Crpgsfags may as well not buy it, doesn't matter>>564756321It's an absolute dealbreaker for many as properly identified by developers long time ago already. Don't you have irl friends like this?

xenos is an anagram for no sex

Any Kenshi players here. Should I recruit this randomized robot or wait to find a unique one.
>>564756884Depends on your roleplay, but in general yeah. Get the Skeleton if you can, they can be harder to come by in vanilla. Premade companions aren't really important, they barely, if ever, have any actual unique dialogues. And Skeletons are really useful
>>564753434you are not 40k human
>>564755281>Those are 40k games first and cRPGs distant second.LOLIt's an Owlkek game first, 40K secondLook at all the damn Argenta romance request spam everywhere
>>564725280What the fuck was his problem?
>>564757306>they can be harder to come byI noticed, thanks for the advice
>>564753692Everything that isn't physical energy/standard biology is Warp Energy. Pychics/Emotion/Belief/Tyranid Hive Mind that's all the Warp. The "Soul" is simply the psychic reflection of a sapient creature in the warp. It's not strictly necessary for a sapient being to exist, see blanks for example, but most species see someone without a souls as damaged and incomplete. Souls, as a psychic imprint can have an existence and even identity after death, especially strong souls like those of the Eldar. This is made most obvious by the Infinity Circuit and Eldar Wraith Constructs. And for Eldar, their souls would be reincarnated into new Eldar.Although the Chaos Gods are ascendant in the Warp there is lots of it that they aren't directly controlling at any given time. For most other races their souls will go to the warp and then, unless they are unlucky and encounter a daemon, dissipate into the general warp energy. New souls for the race will then get pulled from the warp energy. The problem for Eldar is that they know their souls should be reincarnated more directly, having strong distinct souls is part of their identity. But they all know and deeply believe that they collectively birthed Slaanesh, their gods are all either dead or cannot help them (small exception for clowns), and that Slaanesh wants to devour and rend each and every one of their souls specifically and expends special effort to do so. This belief is self-reinforcing due to the "belief is reality" nature of the warp, plus Eldar souls burn especially brightly, so they are uniquely vulnerable (obvious and tasty) in the Warp.
>>564757637Game still sold well despite no soB romance isn't that interesting?
>>564757637Not really. It's first Owlcat game for many because they are there for 40k and couldn't care less for Pathfinder games, which is why Pathfinderfags were completely supplanted and abandoned, just like Historyfags were with Total War and it doesn't matter for Owlcat.Someone whining about romance and projecting cuckshit literally did not affect Rogue Trader sales in any way. In fact non waifu dlc was more popular lol
>>564754821This is a feature, not a bug. GW doesn't want strict prescriptive lore Star Wars style. There is a general shape to things but built in ambiguity and contradiction is useful. The Chronostrife is a good illustration of the codification of this:https://warhammer40k.fandom.com/wiki/Chronostrife
>>564758040>It's first Owlcat game for many because they are there for 40k and couldn't care less for Pathfinder games, which is why Pathfinderfags were completely supplanted and abandonedRight
>>564757770>And for Eldar, their souls would be reincarnated into new Eldar.makes no sense, then the newly born eldar whose souls should have been created are not createdorks don't create demons through their psychic bondc'tan are sapient energy beings that hate the warp and wanted to separate reality from the warp completely, but they still prefer to eat conscious living beings over just ordinary physical energy sourceshow does necron consciousness even work
>>564758195yeah, it's over for Pathfinderfags
Is Through the ashes etc worth playing or skip?
>>564758642>>564758642>>564758642
>>564758521They're absolutely dumped yeah, but the fact is that the vast majority of people played Pathfinder and Rogue Trader because they like Owlcat games, not because they're fanatically loyal to a single IP. Eventually they will abandon 40k, and 40kiddies will be in the same situation
>>564758471>how does necron consciousness even workiirc Necrons have a consciousness (or well, some of them have, since the weakest minds lost theirs when they became the Necrons) due to them originally being a race called Necrontyr that were tricked by the C'tan to transfer their bodies to the necrodermis bodies that the current Necrons areThe C'tan ate the souls of all Necrontyr during the transference though, and as far as I know, no new Necrons can technically be created since they cannot create new consciousnesses
>>564754057DAI is specifically designed for you to have more content available than should be reasonable done in a playthrough. You're only supposed to play about a third to maybe half of the side stuff available. The pace will pick up a lot if you turn off the completionist part of your brain and just do what you want when you want to do it and move on when you feel like it. It's just how the game is structured. If you WANT to be completionist you more or less have to turn on the "Take it Slow" and "Even Ground" Trails in game difficulty reducing exp by 50% and adding upward level scaling in order to avoid over-leveling everything. But that's only really for people who enjoy the combat itself and the slow "single-player MMO" aspect of the game. There's a reason "Leave the fucking Hinterlands you idiot" was a meme around release.
