Wicked smart Edition>What is /crpgg/?This general is dedicated to the discussion of computer roleplaying games such as:Arcanum, Baldur's Gate, Disco Elysium, Divinity: Original Sin, Dragon Age, Expeditions, Fallout, Icewind Dale, Jade Empire, Knights of the Old Republic, Mass Effect, Might and Magic, Neverwinter Nights, Pathfinder, Pillars of Eternity, Planescape: Torment, Shadowrun, Solasta, The Age of Decadence, Temple of Elemental Evil, Tyranny, Ultima, Underrail, Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines, Warhammer 40k: Dark Heresy, Rogue Trader, Wasteland, Wizardry, and many others.>Recommendations:https://files.catbox.moe/gx6f4u.pngPrevious: >>566438798>Thread QuestionShould INT affect dialogue options?
>9 INT
>>566551492>Should there be retard dialogue optionsYes. The reason there isn't anymore is because modern AAA development is done as though HR is in the room with developers and they don't want to make a product that seems ableist by mocking the mentally challenged.
>>566552063Or because it would at least double every dialogue option by having to translate normal sentences into grugspeak>Me no like you. Die!

I think it was Arcanum but I remember you need to have a certain level of charisma AND be a certain race just to access the only romance in the game. More games should do that. Stats are supposed reflect your characters physical appearance. Some half orc or gnome with 7 CHA isn't going to romance someone like Camellia or Galfrey.
wtf, this thing makes the inferno pistol redundantis there going to be an upgraded inferno pistol soon?
My personal playthrough and all the choices I made in it are canon and you’re a fucking retard if you picked anything else
>>566552827This kind of trivial task can be done very swiftly with the use of AI.
>>566553416Nothing actually goodThat thing mogs all the bolt pistols too
>>566552827>noooo writing words is too hardSo laziness, okay
>>566553416No, melta weapons are a meme in RT. That pistol in particular just shreds through everything. Used it on my Commissar.
>>566553974>>566553678whoever was on the item design team for this game must have really loved the least 40k-type weapon in the franchise, the stub gun
>>5665538069 INT post
>>566551492>Thread Questionyeah that shit is fun
How much INT do you guys have irl
sebastian thor's clemency, ulfar, calm the fuck down...
>>566555328
>>566552010There are worse stats a fighter could dump
I miss Durance...
>>566554462Does that thing even qualify for being a stub gun anymore
>>566555163I'm a certified genius with scholarships to duke, stetson, and several other good schools through various talent identification programs and competitions, and I graduated with honors and a dual major from the one I chose. I like to think that has helped me make good crpg character builds, and choose good waifus.
>>566557261>almost no sense of empathyWenduag brothers...
>>566557502if it's cased ammo, yes>who puts exploding bullets in cased ammopirates of the koronus expanse, apparently. and it works
>>566557621I mean, it's pretty obvious from the start.
>>566557532are you also a millionaire with 2 businesses
I just killed Camellia in an abandoned basement. Thanks for making that decision easy /crpgg/.
>>566558545Most people generally do.
>>566558545Pretty cringe, you should have fucked her and then let Anevia take care of it
I bet Theodora and Abelard never had a bond as strong as us, we're bros him and I, true compadres, forged friendship in fire and fury, femcel traders could never understand it
>>566557532Who's WotR best girl?
>>566558545based
>>566558545You monster, why?
>>566558649Camellia. Since I'm a certified genius with high INT (ie, IQ) I'm well aware of the fact that NTR is a high IQ fetish.
>>566557290The companions in 2 just seem much worse than the companions that were left behind in 1, and that's saying something because I don't particularly care for the companions in 1
To be fair, you need at least 13 INT to understand the character of Yrliet
>>566558649I went with Galfrey. I liked that she has a flaw and made a bad decision, but realizes it and overcomes it and her romance ends up being cute. I also love heroic waifus that are knights in shining armor, and she has carried the burden of leading the crusades for decades.I was cleric into angel that playthrough.
what a stupid bitchabelard's seen nastier and deadlier trollops while she was still in diapers!parry shoot that cunt, seneschal
>>566558861The companions in 2 are not great, but they are definitely better than the ones from the first game, with the exception of Durance and Grieving Mother
>>566559504>May 2026... I am forgotten...
>>566559486Bro, Zahua?
>>566559380I knew it was you lmao. How are you so successful, smart and rich yet have no wife?
>>566559661More like ZaWHOa.
my only regret is that this game doesn't have the production values to do this scene justice, I wanted to see her insides torn out and spinal collumn shattered and skin peeled to pieces and tits popping out and being inflated into explosion for her treason and intent to besmirch the name of House WINNERserian
I take a walk every day, I manage two small businesses, I run games at my local tabletop game store multiple times a week, and I cook for myself and do regular yardwork and all the usual homeowner stuff as well. You can do whatever you want with proper time management. Lots of people just unknowingly waste lots of time throughout the day, often in the form of commuting in a car or waiting, or on the cell phone.What do you think?
>>566558861I think that the companions in Deadfire really suffer from the role of most of them being primarily as faction mouthpieces. Which sucks ass if you're trying to promote a sense of camaraderie. I don't think it's an accident that Eder, Aloth, and Xoti anecdotally seem to be the most popular companions. I understand that they got a little overambitious with the approval system and it would have been a lot of work to implement more but I think the game would have been way better received if the sidekicks had all been real companions.
>>566560148not crpg
>>566560309>XotiShe's popular? I never see anything good about her, ignoring waifu whining
>>566560309Definitely.The game would've been more fun if the nudist pirate orlan or the vampire bookslut had more dialogue and content.The "support my corrupt organization or I'll get mad!" stuff gets annoying quickly.
>>566560761Compared to the others yeah. Although part of that is probably lots of people taking her because she's the Priest.
If you wear a mask you're an insufferable asshole
>>566560309I already hate everyone here except for the vampire based on their portraits
>>566561116I like Nocturne
If you don't have an underwear slot you're an insufferable asshole
It's very telling that Sawyer and his goons don't care about individuation of characters, only anthropology, partisanship, and factionalism. No wonder he cannot understand romance, because political affiliations and social cadres know nothing of personal, human (or elfish) love.
>>566557261This really shows the limits of stats as a reflection of the world. Are you automatically dropping panties and charming people because you have 20 CHA? What makes a golden dragon worthy of +11 CHA?>>566562465>elfishYou mean elven right?
>>566562780no i mean eel fish, retard, lmao
>>566563221Do these taste better or worse than branzino?
Sawyer is Hitler to waifufags
>>566551492a lot of the time, there is a big disconnect between a player's actual intellect and their character's intellect. there is cognitive dissonance when we have a wizard who checks all of the intelligence speech checks, while also not being able to solve riddles
Holy fuck man wotr refuses to trigger Woljif re-recruit event. I have been to demonland 2 fucking times, forced to do the council meetings, cleared a sizeable chunk of the map from demon armies still no Woljif.
We don't like Sawyer, though
>>566553271it also shows a character's character. making Raven only love you if you're beauty is 10 minimum, shows a level of.. vapidity, very elf like behavior
>>566553271>roleplaying game>you can be ANYTHING>no NOT THAT YOU HAVE TO PLAY A PRETTY BOY BARD OR PALADIN
Someone should make a crpg series where every player character after the first is a child of the previous pc. I just played Aribeth's Redemption where you have the option of saying your character is the son of the Bhaalspawn from BG2 and Aerie/Jaheira/Viconia and there's reactivity to that choice. It's a pity Dragon Age never made Kieran a protagonist.
>>566564134>the option of saying your character is the son of the Bhaalspawn from BG2 and Aerie/Jaheira/Viconia and there's reactivity to that choiceWhat's the reaction?>You're the son of that legendary hero? I'm so wet right now
Did Thane's missions have a different director or something? They went way over the to compared to the rest of the game trying to give him cinematic angles and lighting.
>>566562465Still melting down about a decade old forum post you haven’t read
>>566564546Maybe, they cared about him only in 2
>>566564303Some enemies from a cult in BG2 hate you, you meet Viconia and the dialogue is different if you're her son or not, one of the silver dragon's children is a character and knows your father saved him as an egg and such. Assumes the BG2 character was relatively good aligned, but you choose whether he ascended or not.
Everyone talks shit on Drizzt for being Mary Sue but I can't help but notice Elminster dodges any accusation
>>566561116Our boss in DH wears a mask
>Internalized homophobia 200 years in the futurelmao, Fox News did a fucking number on BioWare.Incidentally this mission always got to me as a kid, it felt more difficult to get through than others. You were just stuck in a room with the mom of a serial killer's victim, learning how she got lured in and had her life cut short, and even if you stopped Morinth nothing was ever going to make this better.
>>566565127>you meet Viconia and the dialogue is different if you're her son or notBut she's dead
>>566565127lol sounds like the modder really liked BG2 and really wanted a continuation
>>566565287Only if you romanced her, and in that case oops spoilers
>>566565476That's what I mean, how exactly do you meet her as her son if she's supposed to be dead?
>>566565582I played as Aerie's son so I only know this from looking at dialogues in the toolset, but there's a way to talk to her ghost or resurrect her or something
What if... Wenduag was male?
>>566557621>almostI'm in
>>566565743That's nice, and the logical choice because the original ending was retarded. Does it also force you to play a half elf/drow?
>>566565982wendog is basically male already
>>566565982Women would like him I think That Darkergrey guy drops her instantly
>Wenduag, Galfrey, Arue, and Amiri were tabletop charactersAny cute girls from the other Pathfinder tabletop campaigns that would make good companions?
>>566565982Imagine if Lann was a woman>autistic>insecure>trad>wants you to knock her up>has a lawtistic side to appeal to the lawtardsAh but she fucked male Wendog so that's a 0/10 cuckshit romance
>>566566461
>>566562465elvish*
I wish I got to spend more time with Morinth on a Not-Idiot playthrough, she's so fucking edgy it loops back around to being funny.
>>566566531Val is from the tabletop? I thought she was from Owlcat
>>566566708She is, he's just retarded
>>566566708Nope, this >>566566823 tranny is retarded
>>566566871Alright retard, post your source
>Let me hypnotize you into loving me by becoming less attractiveFor what purpose
>>566566980What do you want, a CNN article? Get the fuck out of here, cocksucking retard
>>566566708Anon’s probably confused because they added her to the updated adventure path for 2e
>>566567168sadly you are not funnybetter luck next time
>>566567168A source of Paizo creating Valerie retard
>>566565982Then he'd be Wendoug
>>566567276The funny part is that they didn't just add Valerie, they added all KM companions to the aventure path
>>566567026That's just how asari actually look all the time. All the other are clouding your mind to make them more attractive
>>566565982He would have Astarion popularity among women, they like a manwhore and when he's a bit evil
>>566567026Boring taste
>>566567404I feel like that kind of misses the point. I always assumed the other party members were to fill in the role of your buddies' characters in a campaign, minus the parts where you woo and bang them. But characters like Greybor and Woljiff and Harrim just scream tabletop character
>>566567729What about gender swapping the space elves?
Welp, that's one serial killer baddie down. All that's left to do is grab the IFF, do Legion's loyalty mission, and it'll be time to raid the Collector Base. I'll still have Arrival to do after that, but then I'll finally be on to 3. Just wish work wasn't so intense lately so I had more time to play.>>566567667But then they'd look different in photographs>>566567913>Loses the intense contrast between her dark montrals and lighter face toneNah it's shit senpai. I swear her jaw even shrinks.
>>566568103Yrliet is too chud coded if he was a male and Deldar dolly would've been loved by incels (me)
>>566568103Both of them would be less popular
>>566568431>Yrliet is too chud coded if he was a male
>>566568014They play basically the same role in the adventure path. Just extra characters with a mini quest you can use.
>>566568536Bratty Sub Deldar Marazina would have been the belle of the ball. Cassia would be discarded like yesterday's noodles
>>566568773People already don't like Camellia and she doesn't even hurt you personally and you think Marazhai would be any better? Keep telling yourself that, I guess
>>566568954>People already don't like Camellianever happened
>>566568954The people who say they hate Camcam are being ironic
So the anon posting mass effect shit was just mintharatroon? Do you ever fuck off?
>>566569162No I'm the Sentinel anon. Don't lump me in with that tranny.
>>566569162>EVERYONE WHO EVER PLAYED THIS MASSIVELY POPULAR GAME IS THE SAME BOGEYMAN
>>566569572Same guy as the one who names his files
>>566569162Mintharatroon's characters always ugly, blond, and have short hair, it wasn't him
My characters meanwhile are always beautiful, blonde, and have short hair.
>>566569861Mintharafag...
>>566565259He also screams "I am going to betray you later" vibes. Maybe it's just the mask, but at this point I would be more shocked if he doesn't end up screwing us over at some point.
Why is mintharafag hated, what did xhe do
>>566570302I think he reminds Shadowheartfags that they're cucks
>>566570302Search for Seranafag, Caitfag, Shadowheartfag in the archives
There he is.
I just want to lie in the afterglow and enjoy the sensation of Karlach's semen swimming into my womb, is that so much to ask?
>>566568954Female Marz would have dedicated fags and appease eldargooners however they think he would look like the deldar wych porn when he would look like Yremeyss and her weird shaped skull.
>>566570876>Female Marz would have dedicated fagsSo just like he does already then. I'm talking about the majority here
>>566570705Stop watching bg3 blender porn
>>566570705stop calling your colon a womb
>>566571019More though. I am sure someone would write female Marz is a virgin
>>566571296Female Marz would be shy and bashful when you kiss her because it's her first time. She's experience with violence but not intimacy
>>566571296>n-no she was lying when she said she fucked her brotheryeah I can see it
>>566567729>they like a manwhoreHonestly, r63 Wenduag would be just a massive simp. If people think Lann is bad, they'd have nothing on maleWendog
>>566570302You can search the archives to see what he posts. Search by username. Decide for yourself. Never take anyone's word for anything around here.
>>566566508Even with that half scalie face?
>>566571951Being a half lizard monster girl is a plus, not a con
>>566571543Yeah like when you snuggle with Viconia instead of fucking her because she's too tired. She's never had that before and is all sleepy and cute in the morning.
>>566570371>>566570465>>566571929I asked why is he hated here for a qrd, I'm not gonna research a thread persona for hours
>>566571929>Search by usernamethat'll get you less than half of it which is most of the problem
>>566572194he is fat autistic waifufag who writes giant paragraphs and has been a plague on /vg/ for over 10 years
>>566572368Is he the same guy who names his pictures of Yrliet instead of using numbers?
>>566572194If you want a serious answer, he's just a really argumentative and long-winded guy that is frequently wrong but never concessionary, and often drags thread quality down with his obsessions around certain topics. He has a very distinctive posting style and collection of special topics that is very recognizable even with his name off. He is frequently weaponized by third parties seeking to sow discord in a thread.
>>566572663where is your name?
>>566572705Right here.
>>566572558No not him. this guy only talks about Yrliet>>566568103
>>566572558We all name our images
>>566572085I don't know Lann is rather ugly
lann is the laezel of pathfinder
wenduag is the laezel of pathfinder
wenduag is minthara obviously
I'm reading the archive and all of his posts are high quality.
>>566573990>I'm reading the archive
>>566573990Yeah this was my favourite from him >>566560148
>>566574095Aubrey Plaza if she a frog
>>566573990yeah he's fine. shart waifufags slander him because he was the one who discovered what she says about halsin
>>566572194>why is he hated herehttps://youtu.be/IyWzHMFi4sE
>>566574359Okay Shadowheartfag
I hope there's a plan for divinity containment when the time comes
>>566575007There's zero chance people aren't going to talk about a AAA crpg here when it comes out
>>566575007When /bgg/ finally dies the rest of them will come here
>>566575007why when they are determined to troll here anyways
>>566575323we don't even know for sure that it is a crpg
>>566572663>concessionaryThe word doesn't fit someone willing to concede a point in a talk. And that has never been a requirement in an exchange in good faith. I very rarely revise my opinion after a 4chan back-and-forth, not because I'm arrogant and assured I'm always in the right, but because anons here are rarely interested in genuine debate before ad hominems start flying. The idea that the namefag "often drags quality down" is also laughable. Just take this general for example. What's more annoying, harmless blogging about waifus or the guaranteed shitposts that follow because the stalkers have to signal IT'S THE NAMEFAG?>>566575007If the game is the second coming of the genre as the Larian fanboys predict, then it will have its own general.
You are arrogant and assured you're always in the right though. Nobody recognizes and points out most of us because we aren't FUCKING ANNOYINGtake the hint man geeze
>>566575931>Nobody recognizes and points out most of us because we aren't FUCKING ANNOYINGIf only that was true
>>566575782They’ve pretty much already said it’s going to play like bg3 haven’t theyI doubt they’ll go back to arpgs
Namefag still thinks he's a beloved e-celeb
>>566576012only the really annoying ones are recognizablelike the butteating camposterit takes serious effort to be that bad is the point
>>566575931>we aren't FUCKING ANNOYINGau contraire
>>566575831>If I defend him hard enough, maybe he will finally r-reply to me and invite me to his fan discord
>>566576119>the butteating camposterI've posted about rimming Camellia multiple times, is that me?
>>566576262Yes. Stop it!
>>566576313I'm afraid I can't. In fact I'm working on a blog-sized post describing Camellia's anus and how it relates to her characterization right now.
>>566575831You'd have a point if it wasn't for the obnoxious paragraphs about cucking
Seranatroon its time for you play the First Ascendant or Swtor all night long
>>566576395you're on The List.
he's not even here right now and the shitposters obsessed with him are trying to derail the thread. really makes you think
>>566576760>he's not even here right now
>>566576760you will never be beloved
Everyone always posts about wanting to fuck their waifu but you never hear anyone post about wanting to fuck their build. Really makes you think.
>>566577101but my build is me a biological woman
>>566577101I always create characters I want to have lesbian relationships with, so in a way I do want to fuck their build.
>>566577101Waifufags play the game on easy
>>566576760when someone notices this they double down like they just did to you. if anyone disagrees with them or even just tells them to shut the fuck up because they don't care about drama they accuse them of being him. they're mentally ill shart waifuags who hold a grudge because he posted her halsin lines and they make it everyone else's problem
>>566577476You respect women right Shadowheartroon?
>>566575931Being recognizable doesn't mean the poster is annoying, argumentative, or stubborn (obstinate) to the point of dragging the thread down with them. Pattern recognition isn't some kind of obscure skill only a few possess (although you clearly do not). Spend enough time in a general and you will recognize who's who. Similarly, not being recognizable isn't some kind of ideal the model anon should strive for. Most of the time, it just means that the anon is content with either being anonymous or playing the (You) farming game. [Waifu] is shit. [Waifu] is the greatest. [Waifu] should have been gay/straight. If [Waifu] were brown, would you still like her? That sort of posting. It's noncommittal and easy.
There's a sort of pilpul that trolls like >>566577476 do where they troll while claiming to oppose the very same. It's unsubtle, but the state of this place is such that it works more often than not.
>>566577101I want to DANCE with ROGUES
If Argenta were brown would you still like her?
>>566578090Namefaggot would argue about how she is wrong and evil for killing Theodora then

>>566578614They failed to account for DFC enthusiasts so no. Sawyer would have considered the pros and cons for both large and small chests.

>>566562780It means that when you meet Hal, and he admits to aiding and abetting the cultists, and asks you to let one cultist go even though the cultist openly states he's gonna go right back to the demons and continue fighting a war against you, it comes off as reasonable.
Amiri is a gem
>>566587035yes, and they "work" but then the last text says that you find an empty den where a giant monstrosity could have fit, and it's gone, obviously referring to the genestealer primarchand then it says "if the Emperor willed it, hopefully it was destroyed in the cleansing fire" but obviously it wasn't
Charisma is more or less just a stat indicator of how much the world is about you and not a naturally deterministic reality like real life. The fact is if you're play a character with more than 5 CHA, you're a self-insert mary sue. But that's par for the course with all owlcat games.
>>566594043What books would you read to her?
>>566594645The Reader.
I dumped CHA on my KC and got that background bonus that uses WIS instead of CHA for persuasion checks. Literally no downside.
>Read a book in a game>Permanent stat increases and/or you learn a spell>Read a book IRL>Nothing happens What am I doing wrong? I even went for the high culture stuff I imagine wizard types to read like The Sun Also Rises and The Brothers Karamazov
>>566595518I'm pretty sure I got some permanent traits from reading Foundation as a kid.
>>566595518Yeah I often got frustrated in college when I couldn't just roll dice and savescum instead of actually learning to do math like a wagecuck.
>>566595518There's a passive int+cha skill check unfortunately
>>566596174
Any recent rpgs that take place over a long journey rather than a single hub and it's surroundings?
I will now be playing the swordhaven expansion.I am going to be disappointed.
I'm not gay or transgender but arueshalae knocking up a female kc and taking on a more dominant role despite being fairly submissive as a character is unreasonably hot
>>566575007you say that as if you wont put 300+ hours in it yourself and as if owlcat games and dlcs arent allowed to infest the general on releasei know you have 200 hours in both dos2 and bg3 dont be contrarian
>>566577101I love my builds so much I sit for hours every day I play just talking over what I want to do and could do differently with myself over and over even once I've decided on what to doIt's just so fun to theorycraft and imagine what you could do with every spell and itemThat is essentially build masturbation
>>566596292That's no Mythal, sis.
>>566594753Read that in the original German for my German minor in universityA surprisingly good read
>get to the academy in DOS2>start to get bored and want to restartThe flaws become more apparent on subsequent runs but its still the best CRPG I've played.
>>566599132No lmao it isn't, it's shit. It has a point about the German generational nazi guilt culture but the so-called "love story" is just age gap fetish with constant fucking.t. also read it in original German
>>566599409Act 4 is fun even if the scaling is fuckedThe only real issue is that there aren't enough challenging fights like the Doctor and Devourer to test your builds onAnd there being nothing stopping you from just walking straight to the final fight and killing them also makes sidequesting there feel a bit pointless
>>566599914Yeah the combat really starts to show its issues with the game turning into a one turn or get one turned simulator thanks to the lack of defensive scaling. This also means level ups have stopped mattering. My other main issue is the ending or lack thereof, you get like a 10 second slideshow and speak on the ship. It feels super unsatisfying and makes it seem like your decisions don't matter.
>>566600351Sorry but if your name isn't Lucian your choices don't matter in the world of Divinity
>>566599901I wouldn't say it's shit, but I might be more forgiving towards its shortcomings due to having expected it to just be a boring romance novel. Also I liked the reveleations and how they were set up.Far too much fucking though, it felt like every chapter of the first third contained at least one sex scene or a mention of the woman's naked body. That's partly why I think the book gets a lot better after the first part, since the lass vanishesI did laugh a bit when Michael compared her to a horse though
Don't you lecture me about being a noble when I've cleaned your vomit off the tableI'll have you know that all the money in my pocket is from robbing graves like an honest man and not inherited wealth
>>566600351Did you talk to the ship at the end?That is the real endingI didnt notice know this in my first 3 playthroughsIf you talk to the lady vengance you get proper ending slides the game isnt meant to end on the boat dicking around foreverYou can reload your latest save to see them right now if you want
>>566601320Women shouldn't be talking like that in the 19th centuryShe can't even vote
>>566601389>proper ending slidesYeah that's what I was referring to. It felt like a lot of stuff doesn't really amount to much. Lucian deathbombing the elves on purpose, Dallis's entire plot and reviving Braccus just gets glossed over. The companion endings are also pretty lacklustre. The lines feel throwaway like the one about driftwood getting devoured by voidwoken.
>>566601714It's an alt history fictional country where the wahmen can work and join the army
>the alterations to the speech about your fatherKEEEEEEEEK >He was a ̶g̶o̶o̶d̶ man >he was a man
>>566601714Yes I am sure a working class female dockworker is very demure and minds her language and attitude
>>566602140EwFrom the general setting>mountainous>on the edge of Europe but very close to Turkeyit seems to be Fantasy Slovenia
>>566602198That's a nice literary tacticAn edited eulogy.I might save that to my mental rolodex for writing fiction some day.
>is that a nice picnic on a lovely sunny day with a beautiful woman?>AIIEEEEE I'm going insane!!!! You are perfectly fine the rest of the game btw
>>566601320Rebeka better be fuckable
>>566602693It's classic fake europe and I'm pretty sure the devs are english since there are many englishmen, even some irish people, and references to english poets and philosophers that dont really make sense from the location and time period so either it is a hamfisted way to appeal to a broader market or it was made by anglosno I wont google it that is no fun
>>566603348Definitely made by Angloids but the setting itself seems like an Anglo imagined version of somewhere in eastern europe
>>566603113Wound herSting the silly bitch
>>566603348The real answer is more horrifying than you could ever imagine, the devs are actually Irish.
>>566603736j/k give her a nice gentle answer. Annie is best girl.Do not wound her.

Is wayward realms the elderscrolls killer?
>>566604516
>>566604932TES6 is gonna be the real Elder Scrolls killer
>>566604516Historically accurate
>>566604516Historically accurate, kino.
>>566599409The writing pacing is also kind of bad for me. You've arrived at Arx, and at that point the only thing the MC wants is to find whatshername to reclaim their power.
Speaking of "TES killer", has anyone here played Tainted Grail? Is it any good? Is it a crpg?
>>566605794It's not a TES-like and it's not a CRPG, it's also not very good honestly.
>>566605794It’s an okay game dragged down by the devs trying to copy skyrim too much
>>566599901>but the so-called "love story" is just age gap fetish with constant fucking.You just know anons would love it if it were a crpg romance then
>>566604516Fantastically accurate as well

Cuckoldry is actually a persistent theme in this game/crpgg/ would like it
why did they remove reloading from dark heresy
>>566608242Reloading never felt like a necessary part of combat in RT. You do it surprisingly rarely
>>566607929nah we good you can play it alone
>>566605794More like Tainted Fail
>>566607929Can you fuck Sophia for him? Maybe that would help somehow
>>566609013>can you fuck your cousinUhhh, I haven't tried but maybe. You just need to get your childhood friend out of the way But that might be possible because you can seemingly dissuade him from pursuing her
>>566607929>sorry tomaz i'm not interested i've told you this before>okay but can I buy you a drink at least>sure>*he does so*>she goes back to ignoring youHe should have taken the hint she was being very blunt

;-;
>>566608354Dark Heresy combat is slower, it would fit there imo
>>566610262hey now dont be so harsh he was just showing you it works
>>566612906Potentially, but then again they've changed the combat quite a lot in general. Perhaps they'll put it back in for the Beta if they think it'd fit
>make jae master tactician>give her the paired holster and that one item that reduces reload costs to 0 AP>give her drukhari and aeldari burst pistols>watch her absolutely melt shit while being an insane buff slut>also a god tier skill monkeyWhy do people say she's a bad party member again?

another one
>>566616479She's not a slut though.
I'm a lot more powerful than any of the other posters in here
>>566616803Who this?
>>566617105Cleopatra from Expeditions Rome. She's a romance option for males. She even has a super wholesome romance ending. I usually go for the tomboy though.
>>566616639Yeah that's the problem, I'm buying a carton of milk I don't want soda inside.
>>566599901>but the so-called "love story" is just age gap fetish with constant fucking.That's my favorite kind of love story
>>566617287I don't know what this means
>>566617201shame that game is so drastically worse than the two predecessors, and then the devs got acquired by some crypto nft bs firm
>>566617661Jae is too cute and pure He wants a proper slut
>>566617695I found it better than Vikings. Also only some devs went to do retarded nft shit. The others reformed under a new studio and are working on a new Expeditions game.
>>566617765I don't think it's even a real rpg anymore in rome, it really turned me off bigly. it's been long enough that I don't really remember why, though.what's the new studio called?
>>566617724>Jae is too cute and pure
>>566614271>>566614527You have to understand the following:Incels are so starved of any kind of affection that they become hypersensitive to it, and seek to scrutinise even fictional examples for any possible flaw.They are pretty much incapable of roleplaying, and the idea that a woman might actually like them (or their in-game avatar) is completly alien and repulsive to them.
>>566618068He's right though. I know most anons here either kill her or ignore her but if you're romancing her past act 3 then she's genuinely in love with the RT.
I wanna smooch her.
>>566618460Same but on her anus
>>566618087That's why they prefer Cassia or Kibbles because they can only imagine themselves with such very sheltered women
>orcs>elves>dwarsi dont care, im playing human

>>566617661They are both sold the same way to the player it's just Jae is actually a Jack not an Isabella.
Sex
>>566618659That is propably true. It doesn't mean that those romances are bad either, I just wanted people to understand the completly irrational and enraged reaction Jae elicits.>>566617724being able to change a complete slut with love is a big fantasy for some people

>>566623172They're simply a bad archetype, no way around it. They were supposed to be the sniper archetype in a game full of trash mobs that die in one hit regardless, and for bosses you have better ways of dealing high single target damage, for example Burst weapons. Also Iron Eye Grenades make operative's armor stripping completely pointless.
>>566622916I assume it will be a contest of design submissions and people will vote on it?Or maybe a contest where they choose a few winners and they simply tell Owlcat what they want

>>566623546Yeah, from the way they worded it I'm almost sure it's gonna be some kind of contest.
>>566624608Also portraits will be one male and one female
Yeah, I've got a portrait idea for people to vote on: a hot chick
>>566624608I see, thanks mate
Me trying to fix /crpgg/
>>566624608their discord getting to waste time dictating what two meme PC portraits will be deters my purchase, actuallymaybe they should just spend this time giving more of the important NPCs portraits instead
finallyhttps://www.nexusmods.com/site/mods/21
>>566625972You can just ignore them, idk maybe the portraits will be based on cool looking 40K lore characters or designs
>>566626301>cool looking 40K lore characters or designsDon't think that exists. Everything about the setting is 80s Xtreme
>>566626301I can't just ignore them! I am here to complain and complain I will!!
>>566624608I wanna add a cute twink MC
>>566618460
>>566625907You can't fix it. They get unreasonably angry at anyone who makes quality posts instead of using /vg/ as a group text.
>>566624608I hope they do a male and female one for the vote
But it's discord, they'll either add some troon overweight abominations or the horniest husbando/waifu bait portrait possible within reason.
>>566625972This. The lack of voice acting is bad enough, not even giving everyone a portrait is insanely poor production value. There are RPG maker games with more care.
>>566626889The game will be fully voiced tho
>>566626737yes many of the fan portraits including the AI slop are overweight abominations
>>566627430Naive
>>566622504What do you think the last goals will be?
>>566627535They confirmed it several times schizo kun, Obsidian did this with a lower budget. And the game is shorter than RT. There is no reason to think they will go back on that promise
>>566627737Oh game devs known for corner cutting and lying "confirmed it" boy that sure sets the mind at easeRetard
>>566626889>>566627430>full voice actingANOTHER deterrentI didn't even listen to the rambling in RT they take so fucking long to speak I finish reading their entire response by the time they manage three wordsHeinrix and Kibellah's excessive dramatic pauses are buttonmashing baitplease wrap it up!
>>566627849The only retard here is you mate. There is zero reason for them to go back on it after they made it a core point they marketed the fucking game around this time. They kept bringing it up. They are not retarded to do a 180 as that would be career suicide.The only point you could make is that they will cheap out and hire bad VA's

>>566628167But there aren't really any "gotcha" moments though. KM and WOTR may have like 1k+ fights overall but only a dozen or so have any unique mechanics that will take you by surprise.

>>566628318>keep chasing audiences that don't exist BG3 numbers aren't attainableYeah but Owlcat will still try
>>566628710The game constantly asks you to have a very specific party composition with very specific spells that you haven't used yet. It isn't about surprise mechanics. It's a surprise the game was even released.
>>566628895I'm not letting single characters count as "words" they aren't even trying. Take your commie letter inclusivity elsewhere

>>566632626why would it? she's a warrior not a pageant queen. then you'd just be upset about how feminine women can't be warriors lol what a joke fricken libtard game!
>>566632626>Why?Because visuals in fantasy have a deliberate familiarity to them, and deviating from that familiarity is the worst thing a fantasy setting can do.
Iomedae should've been bald.
>>566623172Worst archetype in the game by far. Pasqual, Idira and Yrilet are carried by their unique talents. An RT Operative will be the worst party member. No damage as exploits are pathetic, no survivability, no mobility, etc. I actually had to restart a run I did because I was doing a Operative>Bounty Hunter RT and by the time I got to Janus was was such dead weight in combat it wasn't even funny. So I restarted as a Soldier and I was so much more efficient in combat the difference was night and day.
>>566632587Back in pre-Christianity we worshipped gods so they DON'T kill us all.Jesus really spoiled people with the whole God is merciful thing.
Ember is more of a goddess than Iomedae of Arc
