>>574787961>Recently Released: Esoteric Ebb, Banquet for Fools, Stellar Tactics, Zero Paradesfunny how nobody is playing any of these
>>574789127I have played EE and ZP, plan on playing Banquet
>>574787961why did sawyer kill her in PoE 2 for literally no reason?Is he retarded?
>>574789127waiting for the sale/bundle!
>>574789261He got the ick when he heard about how many people wanted to fuck her
>>574789127I bought all 4 and am in the middle of stellar tactics though. Shelved it when rogue trader dlc came out but I'll continue it later

>>574789127Well, it's not 40k, so, why would a 40k general care about them?
>>574789435don't respond to me fatty
>>574789435based crpg development supporter
>>574789127Zero Parades flopped lmao
>>574789582I don't like this....
>>574789336>>574789435I bought sector unknown and esoteric ebb, might actually buy vagrus for the lolz next steam sale
>>574790006>SheThat's a man
>>574789914every game froggy supports ends up as a flop which kills it's studio or something that's canceled half way Into development
>>574789795thank you, me
>>574790006Americans shouldn't be allowed to post
>>574790006can't you stop using a bad word
>>574790006>she What is the deal with western game devs, seriously. That is literally a 45 yr. old black man from Inglewood
>>574790006if you are going to cry over every portrait I think you should stop playing
>>574789127the point of the froggy list is not to start discussion about indies, it's to brag about being a "connoisseur"
>>574789446I only saw like 2 people post about Banquet, EE, or the Zero one. While RT has a zillion players
>>574790687>While RT has a zillion playersso you finally admit that RT lost and BG3 won?
>>574790226I'm from Chile, but my grandparents from Germany. I'm not American.
>>574790871Where did I ever suggest otherwise?
>>574789127I played zero paradeit was fun
>>574790896don't use the american word if you're not american you fucking... nincompoop
>>574789127I started banquet for fools but I am currently distracted by playing the dragon age awakening dlcWhich DA after that Inquisition or II?I hate that i HAVE to play a human in DA II, ugh
>>574790871>bg3 out of nowhere
bgg schizo that has only played bg3: this is giving mad bg3 vibes
>>574790676he has always been autistic about his indie games though like the time he boasted about 100% brigand oxaca
>>5747910652 duh. It leads into Inquisition
>>574791264this doesn't contradict what I saidfroggy doesn't post his schizolist hoping people will talk about crpgs "past present or future"he just wants to brag about having played dogshit nobody heard of
>>574789541Based
Here he isThose unique characters from Cumrag have such a weird requirements. Forgiving guy like Commissar feels far more like Iconoclast choice, but then you need to inspire him as Dogmatic. In order to get Achilleas you have to be Iconoclast while killing Yrliet which is even more niche. You can easily be denied an option to save Sergeant Vigastes by simply not having gun equipped. Weird as hell
>>574787961>tqsnarky assholes
Jae or Yrliet?
would you still love you're waifu if she was bald
>>574791615Leaving this guy behind but saving everyone else is the kino choice
>>574791065but DAII has the best dragon age girl
>>574791730I kill them both
>>574791409>this doesn't contradict what I saidif he was just a LARPer he could have name dropped few indies that nobody knows and moved on but he clearly spent time playing games that only dozens of people have played at max and even managed to get all the cheevos in a fewwhy go through all that trouble?
>>574791730Jae.
>>574791973>jungle fever
>>574791730They're both shit but at least you can fuck Jae and she stays with you in her best ending. After everything you do for Yrliet you can't even touch her and she fucks off in the ending.
>>574792221>why go through all that trouble?to brag about being a "connoisseur"why would anonymous strangers on an uzbek bread-making forum give a shit that you 100%'d broken roads
>>574792387shes not black
>>574792387nigger you wish you looked like belayour psyops don't work on me I know who you're
>>574791973>bharving brown bitchno thanks
>anons now pretend isabela is blackaverage iq of this general is dropping every day
Isabela is at worst a gypsy but definitely not a negro
>>574792668it's a black femcel/troon that deliberately keeps calling brown women as "black" just to "own" chuds
>>574792851......
>>574791615>Weird as hellAs many of the alignment decisions in this game are desu.
>>574791730Marzipan
>>574788374will we ever get another
>>574792998expanse
>>574791958I like it the other way around. Saving Malice's gang of drukhari was the maddest pull as iconoclast. It's just a pity they never get mentioned once you get them on your ship. I think the devs forgot this was an option in the game, so I'm going to presume that they died out in one warp drive, because that's how the devs would've written them anyway, lmao. Really wish we could've gotten Malice, tho.
>>574793196not a crpg
>>574792485>>574792553Isabella is definitely swarthy. She's the jungle fever threshold, below her are only apes like Idira.
>>574793781trying to hard
Isabella is just a pajeet.
And then the star system that had been the home of an alien race for longer than humanity had existed, which was a peaceful utopia and had no conception of chaos or ever encountered chaos once in the entirety of its existence, was destroyed by a very large army of action figures. Everything collapsed and the aliens died pointless horrible deaths, and the utopia became a shithole backwater protectorate of the empire. A few decades later, a massive chaos outbreak happened which made the backwater shithole even shittier, and that same conflict became a forever war that stretches into the present. The point of this story is that the empire is bad sometimes, but war is cool
>>574794142*too
>>574794334I agree though gypsies are like 30 percent Indian at max
I think I will give Autism in the Staglands another try
>>574794652Anon is trying to get erect to your words, actually
>>574795129I remember codexfags crying about the game being LE WOKE other than that it's a very unremarkable game
>>574794862Indian isn't an ethnicity or a race though
>>574791615>In order to get AchilleasYou don't get him. He will stay behind no matter what
>>574795542Idk about that, and I wouldn't care either. The gameplay is pretty meh but the concept is interesting enough.
>>574791615>Weird as hellowlshart writing team doesn't communicate and doesn't have an editor it seems. So we get nonsensical and even contradictory garbage constantly
>>574795129It has a really fucking good name though.
are there french waifusI don't count curie because that's a software
I'm a French waifu, but not for you people. Technically I'm Italian I guess.
>>574797189TECHNICALLY Leliana and probably Vivienne count, but they're not aggressively French which is the point.
>>574797189Maelle
zitto animale
>>574797235Do you also manage two successful businesses and go on daily walks?
>>574789348I fucking hate how afraid of sex sawyer is. I'm convinced he's an ashamed virgin
>>574797516Just the one.
>>574797235>I'm a French waifu, but not for you people.what the FUCK does that even mean
>>574797593Too bad. I’m only interested in women that go on a walk upwards of twice per day. Consider yourself rejected.
>>574797674Anon is a Founder only DLC option. You need to have contributed $2000 during the kickstarter.
>>574797261>VivienneShe's not orlesian
>>574797674Lardass is attempting a ragebait by pretending to be a woman
>>574797235>>574797189Close enough butCassandra is that you?
>>574797235>I'm a French>Technically I'm Italian
6'4 lesbian millionaire
my pet peeve is when people treat a fictional setting as fictional Europe like oh she must be French or Italian or Sp*n*sh like NO that's not the point of fiction unless it openly apes Europe like GRRM
>>574797189Yes, there are plenty of brown waifus
>>574797947Where's she from then? I forgot.
>>574798126ok but Maelle literally lives in PARIS
>>574798126Found the eastern european pole
>>574798126well you see sometimes it very on the nose like Orlais just being France and Ferelden England
>>574798174Wakkanda
>>574798126Breton = FrenchNord = GermanImperial = ItalianRedguard = MoorsOrcs = MongolsAltmer = ChineseDunmer = JapaneseBosmer = SlavsKhajit = Indians (cat jeet)Argonian = Aztec
>>574798207Expeditions: France is not a crpg
>>574798126>like GRRMAnd 90% of other fictional settings
>>574787961I wonder the recommendations image will ever be "updated" with the owlcat games
>>574797189Vlandian women in BannerlordThe two Breton women in SkyrimAny girl from the region in CK3Mercedes Marten
>>574798271dunmer are not japanese
>>574798069I guess you have one on me, I'm only 5'2
>>574798126Well too fucking bad, it's not like game devs even bother trying to make a new setting.>Definitely not Britain>Definitely not France>Definitely not whatever Slav adjacent area
>>574798226>Ferelden = Englandwhat?>>574798271>Khajit = Indians (cat jeet)lmao
>>574798363since when she has a surname?
>>574798174She's rivaini, like Isabella>Vivienne's parents were both merchants from Dairsmuid in Rivain,[1] though she herself was born in Wycome in the Free Marches.[2] She was taken to the Ostwick Circle at a very young age
>>574798363Vlandians are Norman thoughbeit
>>574798421Ferelden is England, how did you miss that
>>574798271>Dunmer = Japanese>Bosmer = Slavs>Khajit = Indians (cat jeet)>Argonian = AztecNigga what?
>>574798394They are.>but what about AkavirAlso Japanese, sure. Its a homebrew dnd knock off made by weebs.
>>574798482Also she was pparently voiced by a poojeeta
>>574797674one of your soldiers gets a waifu in gaul in expeditions: rome
>>574798532how is it England, substantiate your claim
>>574798534Oh I didn't notice the Bosmer and Argonian lol
>>574798271>Dunmer = JapaneseThat'd be the Akavir.>Bosmer = SlavsNo. Also, you can't call any race Mongols unless they have a mount fetish which Orcs don't. And you're confusing Argonians with Lizardmen.
>>574798487>i'm not canadian, i'm from quebec
>>574798271In which world are dunmer japanese?
>>574798650>Ferelden is primarily based on Medieval England (and broader Great Britain) prior to the formation of the British Empire, combined with elements of Celtic and Gaelic folklore.
>>574798804I believe they call it Nirn, a ripoff of Narnia.
Luv me Glory.
>>574798593This is not shown in Morrowind. They are like Assyrian there
>>574798960There are katanas in Morrowind, Redoran is just the Samurai group, the whole thing is about Japan opening up. If you watch a lot of anime you can see the inspiration.
should i know anything about pillars of eternity 2 deadfire before playing
>>574798751angloid’nadians are a different culture and race. They can never hope to compare to quebecoiscomparably normans were and are of a different culture and race. Vlandia is Norman England
>>574799189You should play the first game
>>574798867Nirn = NirniaYou swit = you shitYou n'wah = you n word
Maybe something that's written by a drug addled madman in an afternoon wouldn't have the tightest world building.>>574799189Nothing much, just play it. Just don't play Turn Based, it takes forever and fucks over the game mechanics.
>>574798271Nords are NordsRedguards are moors + islamic turksDunmer being Japanese has to be the most stupidest take i have seen they're a mix of bronzeage abrahamic religion and esoteric indian stuffAnd argonians are mix of Aztecs and south east Asia like the ankor wat inspired buildings
>>574798885Never played, let me guess >I’m deeply traumatized, but I’m a survivor…. don’t touch me!! But underneath this thorny exterior lies a heart of gold.I feel asleep/10 + dat bitch ugly
>>574797189Aurore Cass-nevermind
>>574799149>If you watch a lot of anime you can see the inspiration.
>>574799229They didn't sell that at walmart.>>574799294Ok.
>>574799369Nobody is just the one thing. But the Dunmer are primarily Japanese. Red Mountain is supposed to be Mt Fuji.
>>574798960Dwemwer are supposed to be Assyrian/Sumerian

>>574799395I AM STILL SEETHING
You guys love AI and reddit right, you believe it
>>574799676No, but taken with the katanas, robes, various anime influences, being an island nation forced to 'open up' its obvious it has japanese influences. Morrowind was made by weebs.
>>574799294nahtodd keeps fucking up the world building even more with ESO retconseven khajeetz keep changing from gypsies to Indians to aladdin tier muslims
>>574798126The issue is that you can get away with making fun of these heavily inspired white fantasy cultures like Orlais or the complete shithole that Ferelden is. You could never make a full on evil black or arab inspired faction/race and not have HR publicly execute writers and designers for creating something that could be seen as problematic and racists these days. You can attack chuds and complain all you want about EU Fantasy being bland,boring and repetitiv but we are here for a reason and it will never change for as long as HR and diversity consultant firms breathing down devs necks>>574798271>Khajit = Indians (cat jeet)like 90% of their nomad culture is heavily inspired by Roma/Gypsy anon. Honestly surprised that they haven't killed Todd for this one
>>574800013who cares, it's all pretend and people buy it anyway
>>574800167gypsies come from India
>>574800167>how do I make this about the culture war?

I don't like cat-jeetsnot being racist, just don't like 'em
>>574800167>Honestly surprised that they haven't killed Todd for this onewhy would they?
my crpg will have gacha mechanicsyou fags are rolling for everything anyway
>>574798332can you please bite my bait
>>574800167True
>>574799865>feudal JapanGemini got the order wrong as this is the dominant influence, but still nice to be proven right by a being of pure logic.
>you get better items if you DON'T take Solomorne to cumragDamn even Owlcat hate him
>>574800278It already is, so sit there and do nothing I guess.
>>574800675>clans exist only in Japanonce again weeabo faggots are poisoning the algorithm with their drivel
>>574800167Todd loves Indians that's why he keeps adding them in all his games and even made an entire game all about themSAARFIELD
You are all wrong every TES race is some flavor of Biblical Jew.
>>574800747Doesn't Cassia give you an engagement ring if you leave her behind?
>>574801102Closest thing to Torah lore in TES are the elves and the tower of babel
>>574801172It's not a ring it's an amulet, and it requires you to romance her and by not bringing her to Cumrag you'll guarantee a bad end
>>574801102
the amount of people who played enough skyrim shit to shitpost about the races disgusts me
>>574801992I play skyrim by spending a month or two installing mods, and then another month or two designing the perfect body in BodySlide. After that I usually play through to the first dragon fight in an afternoon and start over.
>>574801992I fucking love Skyirm.
Bethesda is a conservative company that pushes that pre-marital sex is a sin, space exploration is a waste of funds compared to a pursuit and reverence to God and maintaining order via Law Enforcement, and that vaccinations are a tool used by the state to control the populace

We yasuke now
>>574802382Both look IndianRaina is literally an Indian name
>>574802382Is this game set in africa or japan?
>>574802232that stopped with fallout 4 and starfield though?even then, they diluted marriage so much in their last title that it's now some incredibly vague "partnership meeting"
>>574800235Sure, but they are not Indians>>574800278how am I wrong? The Northern kingdoms in Witcher are all degenerate,backwards,inbred and low iq thugs.You can't as an artist get away with this kind of story or writing if you replaced these people with non-whites because it would be viewed as insensitive and in bad taste for showing a whole group of people as all bad.I also think one of the reason why Tevinter and Qunari got whitewashed in DA:V was because they didn't really wanna go through with portraying a massive empire of non-whites as immoral slave owners and religious zealots that follows the teaching of a holy book (Qun) that wasn't inspired by Christianity. I remember years ago how Gaider got attacked for this quote>"The Qunari have a role in Thedas very similar to that of the Mongol horde. As you all have already pointed out, of course, the details of their culture are pretty radically different. Something more akin to Vikings or Muslims (and by that I mean that Muslims in the medieval period were much more philosophically and technologically advanced than contemporary Europeans, not to any particular tenet of their beliefs). Someone at work once said they were like Vulcans mixed with the Borg, and that comparison works, too."This made the whole topic of Qunari always radioactive because they never really got away from the whole Qunari = muslim comparison even though Gaider never really wrote that. So the easier thing in the end was to just avoid the whole race/faction and just say that it was a small branch of them that was bad
>>574802382>non-asian protag>marketing material shows off pc destroying walls of buildings>devs ignoring criticism haughtilywe have ac shadows at home

>>574802969>how am I wrong?NTA but if you portray say an orc race as backward, violent, and primitive, you can't really be accused of racism unless the group that accuses you of being racist maps the orcs to a real life race, so why doesn't this happen more often

>>574803145whyte peepo won't like it if the game was actually authentic to that eraremember christians were prosecuted by the Japanese during the eraObviously culture wars chuds won't like that level of historical authenticity even the whole yasuke being a samurai was written by some whyte brit called tom York or something
>>574801318>It's not a ring it's an amulet, and it requires you to romance her and by not bringing her to Cumrag you'll guarantee a bad endWhy do you think this?
>>574803876no, whyte peepo get bothered by insulting muslims, they even have to use disclaimers when talking about them >>574802969besides, i imagine it would be focused on japs killing each other
>>574804115Because you have to bring her to Commorragh if you want the true romance end
>>574802382I'm honestly kind of disappointed this is going to be more william adams sengoku slop, it's just not an interesting era
>>>574803459>you can't really be accused of racism unless the group that accuses you of being racist maps the orcs to a real life race, so why doesn't this happen more oftenIt has happened a few times, both WoW orcs and ES orcs have had their fare share of controversy over the last 20 years. DnD have slowly and steadily made half orcs less tribal and warrior like, nowadays they are basically generic big green humans.

>>574802943>>5748031611. You can only have sex after you officially marry a companion in Starfield2. The endpoint of Starfield is that you reach enlightenment and exploring space was a waste of time3. 3/4 side factions are about being a cop4. This is unironically the plot of Wastelanders
