Does greybor actually only join the party if you pay him? Also is slayer class actually this simple he legit has no buttons other than his mark
>>579923805>Does greybor actually only join the party if you pay him?Yes
>>579923661>TQProbably 98
This is the real thread
>>579923661Haven't seen these old PS:T screens in a looong time. Very nice
>>579923661>What year was the greatest for crpgs?2009
>>579923805Yes and yes. He's ass though, bench him forever
>>579923805>Also is slayer class actually this simple he legit has no buttons other than his markYes you just use the quick study and go ham. But Greybor is really a badly designed character. His story is fine but he is a dwarf assassin with no magic. So in actual fights he becomes useless because of his movement range.
>>579924428I always vacillate with Greyboar. I like him at first and then later I feel he goes on too much, almost like he insists on himself and by then I also already have a good team set up anyway.
>>579924559>I like him at firstwhy
so it begins... the great split of crpgg...
>>579924395slut outfit
if you just ignore other people, swtor really is kotor 3-6
>>579923805Slayer is cool but yeah Greybor kind of sucks
>>579924657The very first impression when he helps with the demons in the city, even though its pretty mild, is actually kind of a cool intro. It just gets extra later on.
>>579924673Good riddance. Trying to pass starshit and temu w*tcher as crpgs is an insult. Let them create their own general and see how long it lives.
>>579924869The tranny is really good at talking to itself so probably the sabotaged thread will stay up, he literally has nothing better to do with all his time.
since we're posting whatever, any impregfags planning on picking up the next fable?
>>579924739Its designed to be distracting. Also little flashes of her cute butt improves the morale of the party.
Leliana is just romanceable Imoen
>>579925084>hot LelianaFan art really saves this character
anyone else playing Dawnwalker? can you guys even run it?
>>579925196She's more attractive than Morrigan in the base game without mods
>>579925243Now that's certainly a hot take
>>579925196CGI trailer and mods do the heavy lifting desu.
>>579925303It shouldn't be
>>579924786>>579925230not a crpg
>this thread has more replieslmaothe namefag's strongest soldier simping so much ended up backfiring
>>579925456His thread is dogshit
>>579925369it obviously is
>>579925230I'll be honest with ya, vampire Witcher is right up my alley but I'm not in the mood for video games right now
>>579925359Well from attractiveness overall she is better, since she's got herself together more from the sole fact she isn't walking around near topless all the time and she's devout if your PC is into that.Morrigan is a hot witch that aggressively wants to procreate for her spells, which is more fetishy and less "live a long happy life together" of her.
>>579925456I dont even mind Dawnwalker discussion here cuz all you fags do is talk about waifus, but fucking Star Wars trash?
>>579925004not an impregfag but yeah unless I see something that actively puts me off I'll probably give it a shot
>>579925243I think everyone in DAO is ugly. Leliana had these big lips that shrink by the time of DAI
>>579925682Ideal for sucking cock
>>579925682Ideal for sucking clit
>>579925627wtf I saw a meme that said star wars was actually SOI wars wtf thats not even based what will my discord think!?!?
>>579923661Annah is scottish, not irish.
>>579925872I'm pretty sure it was just low hanging bait, obviously KotOR games came out pre-Disney anyway and is also very obviously an old Bioware style crpg.
think about how everyone in DAO has brown teeth
>>579925872XCOM is also an rpg for you tards i assume?
>>579925682The graphics in those times really didn't do the characters any favors, probably why the topless one is the one that ended up being most popular.
>>579926103>oh yeah, well if game X is an rpg I bet you think vaguely similar but mechanically different game Y is too!They both have turns AND a grid, they're practically the same thing right? Dumbass.
>>579926160Leliana was akctually more popular
>>579926205>Star Wars Zero Company is more XCOM than RPG, as dev confirms there's no branching story or romances: "This is still a turn-based tactics game at its heart" fuck off to vst or whatever
>>579925682>>579925243>Everyone likes Morrigan for her looks>No one likes Morrigan because Claudia Black's voice is sexy as hellThe quarian she voices is also S-tier.

>>579925873Didn't Black Isle or whoever do an official Leprechaun promo thing with her anyway?
>>579926831We've seen what Sawyer can do without oversight from Avellone, but have we seen what Avellone can do without oversight from Sawyer?
>>579926781they were this is trve
>>579926624It's from UnderRail.
>>579925230I'll probably buy it at 30% or something discount. Steam reviews are all talking about shit optimization.
>>579926969PST
>>579926969Yes.
>>579927193>>579927278Damn no wonder.
>>579926969And yes.
>>579925873Same difference.
>>579927054I may as well pick that up finally since its on sale at the moment
>>579926895Possibly. That pic might be that very promo, judging from the ye-olde 4:3 aspect ratio
>>579925873She's Ulster Scots (northern Irish)
>>579925873>>579927728not crpg
>>579927446>Another bangerWhat do people have against Avellone again?
>>579927812view it as arguing about discodance's accent
>new companion is related to one of the cropped imageswho's it going to be?
>>579927556NTA, but it's surprisingly comfy imoI recommend playing on Beginner at the start though, it can be quite punishing, though not quite as ball-busting as people like to claim
>>579928017How punishing in comparison to Age of Decadence?
>>579928015not an eldar hopefully
OI SCREWUPFANCY ME MINGE DO YA
>>579928046Sadly haven't played AoD, so I cannot say
>>579928126She doesn't talk like that
>>579928139Its not very forgiving if you don't play very specific builds to their strengths and have some foreknowledge of events, iirc. I haven't played it in a decade but it remains in my memory as the "hardest" rpg I've ever tried playing...probably because I used to like making too well-rounded RP characters that were never a master at anything when I was younger.
>>579928197She's actually pretty well spoken
>>579928015dogmatic human
>>579928387Kinda impressive how she doesn't even resemble the character people here discuss
>>579928556A cockney street urchin accent just doesn't match that writing at all
>>579928303In that case I'd say that Underrail is less punishing. As long as you focus on a specific playstyle and don't try to be proficient in multiple things, you should be fineiirc a lot of people struggle because they neglect crafting, so if you do pick Underrail up, I'd recommend putting some points into Mechanics and Electronics.
>>579927875Couldn't tell you, I like his works. Perhaps the fact that he's not traditional, perhaps something else entirely.
>>579928556her having a ugly brit accent is funnier
>>579928556What if she talks exactly like Kibbles
everyone is posh british, we need variety
>>579929051A squad full of Californian surfer bros and valley girls incoming, Sir
>>579928616Like always taking toaster repair in Wasteland?
>>579929839Basically yeahAlways useful to invest into Hacking and Lockpicking as well, especially if one uses Oddity XP, since sometimes Oddities require you to hack or a lock
>>579924786Zero Company should have been a See Ar Pee Gee. It has the perfect set up
>>579928387wow.. she would've had more personality if she talked like a bong like >>579928126

>>579928015>ONEI want to smother the last tiny bit of hope inside me and drown out the possibility of another Xenos, so I can actually be POSITIVELY surprised for once
>>579928621Its hard to put the finger on it, the stuff he's worked on, at least those oldies, they tend to have "it". I'm not sure what he's worked on lately if anything other than some stuff in Pillars.
>>579925574Hope you feel better soon anon
I wonder if Owlcat will ever move on from using Unity for their mainline rpgs, I know Expanse will be using UE but it seems like they prefer Unity for isometric stuff.
>>579928015The chudiest simperial one.

reformed daemonette when?
>>579928015What if it's all of those at once? An amalgamation
>>579925230I'm playing it. It's genuinely fun. The story is a bit eh at the moment, in that the writing is very good, but I'm at the moment where the game went BG2 on me and went "in order to proceed in the main quest, do enough sidequests to get the bad guy's attention", so I am assuming it'll pick up eventually.Anca is the best girl.
>>579925084>>579924395>>579925682Leliana is canonically hot.Trailers and character portraits (like BG1 and 2 art) dictate what's canon.In-game models don't because they're limited to the technology and skills of the time.
>>579928387>say word>companion dumps half of war and peace on you as a responseSomeone send owlclowns a dictionary so that they can look up the definition of "brevity" in it.
>>579933848I was asking for a blank companion. I forgot about the monkey paw
>the illiterates are pretending to know War and Peace
>>579933562Happy for you, anon. Love me some old virgin romances
>>579928015A shapeshifter
>>579928015None of these are related to companions. These are just characters and npcs you're gonna meet in that dlc
>>579933562I heard you can also romance your milf teacher is that true?
>>579936162Nah, one of those things is related.
>>579928387>>579935872
>>579928387This is going to be so bad with full voicingJust standing there like a pillock while the person you're talking to rattles on and on forever
>>579936343"Related" is vague as fuck and could apply to literally everything Trazyn is related to eogunn because he's a necron and eogunn was researching necrontech. So no, i don't think any of the hints give any insight into the companion at all
>>579928015I think the first one, the eldar stuff. I believe it's a bonesinger. She'll have a bard-like role in combat, tooting rousing melodies on her little bone flute
>>579936417Unironically better. Gets the job done conveying her annoying disagreeable personality while also making her sound like an actual person as opposed to some weddonesque character from fanfiction written by 13 year old
>>579923805trickal crpg when
A new game mechanic is required for owlclown games: a renegade interrupt. Any time you feel the character is taking too long to get to a point (which is constantly), you press a button and bitchslap them, stopping the rant. The characters react to it and after experiencing it 3 times (number of bitchslaps needed could vary depending on a character) learns their lesson and starts speaking in a succint manner like an actual human bean.
>>579937270Number of bitchslaps needed to teach macaque and kebab a lesson: 1Number of bitchslaps needed to teach yrliet a lesson: 100+
>>579936663It's gonna be a swooping hawk, anon

>>579940705
>>579940705Why you stinker
>>579923805Slayer is a fighter/thief hybrid class. You get full base attack bonus, and a backstab multiplier, but fewer bonus feats.If you're thinking about picking Greybor but aren't sure, do note that his axes are more expensive than what he's asking for. If you ever decide to bench him for good, you can sell them and make your money back.
>>579940390>still seethingThat really riled you up, huh
>>579940734The renegade interrupt mechanic isn't real, bro. I made it the fuck up
>>579941584Oh....Do you think it might be real in DLC 4?
>>579941279Surprising because his axes aren't even good. Also the fact that he uses two different types is annoying
I feel like Marazhai needed to use more posh words to really sell how self-important and full of themselves deldar areIf I don't need to look up a word, it isn't sophisticated enough
>>579941621I wish
>>579941465
>>579941804Well they managed to sell it by making him drone on and on about everything. Nigga really is in love with the sound of his own voice. Almost as bad as kebab. I talked to them once and then never again, i just don't have the time to listen to them blabber - game is already long enough. At least the writers seem to be aware of how bad his dialogue is by giving you an option to pretend you weren't listening

>>579956610An interesting take on cheating (not that it really matters in a single player game anyway). Do you extend this sentiment to tools like aimbots etc?
>>579956147imo it's not that different from the good old trick of getting your friend to come over and do it for youStill remember having to ask my best friend to beat a section of Jak 2 for me after being stuck there for hours. Brutal game, that one, especially as a kid
>>579957256Not to aimbots because those functions are not integrated naturally into the electronic devices you use on the daily. You have to seek them out in an external manner and willfully download them. A screenshot function, however, is found on all computer devices nowadays and have its own alloted button, even, thus it is integrated into everyday use.So I view those processes differently.

I found a schizo in a cave raving about his goddess and calling me filth for not getting his ramblings. Feels just like home in /crpgg/ and 4chahn in general.
>>579959821This guy actually made me laugh out loud.
Just finished Star Wars: Zero Company. Took just over 30 hours. Easily one of the best CRPG experiences I've had in the last few years, probably since Baldur's Gate 3 came out. A little disappointed the game ends and doesn't let you keep doing missions, but other than that the game really knocked it out of the park on all fronts. Beautiful on my machine, fun, memorable characters, great story, lot of build depth, more choices and consequences and party reactivity than something like an Owlcat game, you name it. Surprise GOTY for me I think. Saw the usual optimization complaints, but everything ran perfectly on my machine.I took around 130ish screenshots, I'll begin posting them here to document my playthrough, and afterwards I'll put up a strawpoll to see which CRPG you'd like me to document next. If you can't decide, it's no biggie, I'll eventually document all of them here, this is just to decide who goes first.
Unfortunately I lost some of the earlier screenshots, but this was pretty early in the game. I thought it was getting towards the end, but there's a lot of false finishes. And always welcome, even when the actual ending came I was kind of wishing there was more. A good contrast to something like WOTR, which just drags on and on.
>>579960340>insta deletegood job jannies, thanks for enforcing this instantly while ignoring the fucking AI spam a week ago and constant off topic posting. cunts.
They did a good job using existing characters and events, never overbearing about it but a nod here and there. I believe they got the TCW voice actors for Anakin and Rex.
>>579960204That's interesting to hear. I loveKOTOR 1 & 2, but Disney has kind of soured me on Star Wars in general.>>579960074I can't decide what to do. Releasing this guy from his hole would be funny, but it feels irresponsible.
>>579958514I hate these midgets so much it's unreal
>>579960754Yeah it’s horrible. Selective enforcement.
>>579960754No reason to be angry, I just really liked the game and it has the heart and soul of a good CRPG, that's all. If you really hate it so much you can always just look away for a few minutes, I barely have a hundred screenshots to get through. You can also just post around it, I'm sure someone will talk about Yrliet's vagina with you or whatever groundbreaking discussion you want to have here.
>>579935696>Leliana is canonically hot.So are all the DAO romances, but they still look ugly in game
>>579960865Not a Disney fan either, but there's none of the sequels here. It's mostly a love letter to The Clone Wars and a bit of Republic Commando. There are a lot of KotOR references but nothing too heavy handed, a temple off in the distance on Dantooine, Manaan, stuff like that.
>the based Banquet for Fools poster is earnestly replying to the general derailerMy respect and faith is plummeting
>>579941804He does use big fancy words I like it
>>579961289Who's derailing? I'm just posting about a recent CRPG that I liked. If you want to be autistic about it and pretend like you're the sole arbiter of what is and isn't a CRPG, that's more derailing than anything. It's not like me posting about this stops you from posting about something else, people will discuss what they will. Relax and stop having conniption fits like this every day.
I thought Jae would turn out to be a romance, but I guess scruffy nerd herder scoundrel guy and space royalty girl has been done, and I'm a little old for her. I liked all the companions, but she was probably my least favorite by the end, probably because her companion quests end so far before the game does.
>>579961197I actually looked the game up and this looks more like XCOM with a Star Wars skin than an RPG. I think I'll give it a miss.
>>579961456>>579961620>>579961806kill yourself
>>579960754Star wars faggot is a friend of the mods, it's why he's allowed to blatantly post off topic games and ruin this general while the rest of the anons have to suffer.
>>579961735I would liken it to both. Reminds me the Harebrained Shadowrun games, just a little more in-depth on the combat system. Much more in-depth on companion relationships and reactions than something like WOTR or RT. Genres are hardly ever a hard border anyways, which is why Deus Ex and VTMB aren't first person shooters. But that sort nuance gets some anons really riled for some reason. Oh well.
>>579961818For liking a CRPG that didn't pass your autism bar because it didn't have alignments and waifu kissing? Come on. You guys are really absurd sometimes.
>>579962030Shill somewhere else. Not interested.
>>579961990Reckon he's also the guy trying to push Dawnwalker here?
>>579961990Don't know any mods. CRPGs you don't like don't become off-topic because you don't like them, and if you pay attention I think you'll find that nobody is ruining the general more than you. All I'm doing is posting and talking about a game I liked. All you're doing is crying about it.
>>579962256It wouldn't surprise me
>>579962206Oh well, to each his or her own.
>>579962256He is>>579962030>>579962197>>579962357>>579962523kill yourself
>>579961182I'm sorry, but Morrigan looks like thisshe's a hag
>>579962206So you would rather talk about *spins wheel* Camellia or Yrliet?
>>579962256Is that any good? I heard it is, maybe that should be my next playthrough here.
>>579962573That's actually related to crpg games, yes, it's trite but it's crpgs. Anon is just spamming an xcom like which is not a cprg.
>>579962653Why? It's not a crpg. What compels you?
>>579962573I want them all to kill themselves >>579962571The porn actress trailer is one look, and you picked a frame where she is grimacing
>>579962545Instead of getting so angry that someone played and enjoyed and talked about a CRPG you didn't like, why not walk away from the screen for a minute? Or just talk about something else while I talk about this? Maybe one day some of you will realize the role you play in creating your own problems. It's easy to just talk to each other about the same thing you've talked about for a year, the only one stopping you is you.
>>579962653Please don't post about it here if you do play it, it's more like Witcher 3 than a CRPGThe only CRPG-adjacent thing about it is that Marazhai's VA is the main character
>>579962818No, YOU should walk away. You are a discordtroon with no business here other than derailment. You are a subversive kike.
>579962818He's the one who keeps making the awful threads and he really wants to fuck the nametroon
>>579962783I consider it a CRPG. Ask a hundred anons for a definition of a CRPG and get a hundred and one answers. It values character skill over player skill, it has pretty in-depth party relationships and choices/consequences around that, the itemization, the builds, the different paths you can take, the way the story develops around companion permadeaths and loyalty systems. It doesn't have everything that every other game does, but none of the games discussed here do. It's just a weird strain of autism that anons here can't stand to see someone playing, enjoying, and talking about a game they think you're not supposed to like.
>>579962653Really enjoying it so far. I like the time mechanism
>>579963042it's not an RPG it is objectively a strategy game and that's that. You know it too but you're too schizo to turn from this path
>>579926781This is factually correct. That camp scene where she sings for you went straight to my heart.
>>579963042Your solipsism is abhorrent. Cease. It is not a crpg.
>>579962872I will post it here eventually, but we'll see what the strawpoll says. I might want to give it a week or two for the first bit of patches anyways. It looks to me like an alternate universe where CDPR didn't change their game design so drastically between Witcher 1 and Witcher 2.
>>579963207You bot your own polls. Whatever you have to say no one is interested.
>>579956278>>579949181mixed signals here...
>>579962917I don't use discord, and I haven't derailed anything. All I've done is post screenshots of a recently released, well reviewed CRPG in the CRPG general. You obviously can't stand the game, and that's fine, but you're making the decision to screech and holler about it instead of just posting about the things you want to talk about. I'm going to talk about Zero Company here, that's it. If you want to talk about Yrliet's tonsil stones for the 10,000th time, knock yourself out. It's not like there's a limited number of posts-per-hour here and I'm taking up all your spots, you can just talk about whatever you want to talk about. You're choosing to be autistic and you're choosing to derail the thread.
>>579963207Well it is made by former CDPR devs, to be fair. Some of it was probably influenced by that
>>579963384Its buggy is the consensus. Wait for them to fix it
So who summoned the most insufferable poster ever? What kind of Satanism is this.
>>579963171It's an interesting coincidence that Leliana looks a lot like Imoen, Gaider was aware of the BG2 modding community, and Imoen has a campfire singing scene in her romance mod
>>579963087That's good to hear. I hated the idea of it when I first heard it because I thought it was a wall clock you were racing to see everything, but tying the time to a sort of currency you spend on tasks is interesting. I think I'll like it.
>>579962523is it fun?
>>579963506Nobody did, he's been here since he realized nobody likes his tranny boyfriend
>>579963137Games are rarely just one thing. They have the same combat system as something like Shadowrun Returns for example, just a little more in-depth and interesting. A game can have a little strategy and a little role-playing at the same time, just like it can be a first person perspective game with shooting and roleplaying. Shining Force, Shadowrun, etc.
>>579963518That's funny and I had no idea. Someone should ask him if it's just a coincidence.
>>579963763I didn't ask for your inane retard opinion.
>>579963175I consider it a CRPG. I've asked before for anons to talk about their personal definition of a CRPG, but most of the time they won't or can't. Those few who do end up producing a definition that excludes most of the sacred cows talked about here. The only real definition is mine, which is a game that favors character skill over player skill and features choose-your-own-adventure storytelling. And this does.
>>579963936What you "think" is irrelevant. It is not a crpg.
>>579963383I don't bot anything, I've never even posted a poll here before. You guys are absurd with all these conspiracy theories, every time I post I find out I'm ten different people and I've done all these things you're still angry about. Maybe you should take a chill pill.
>>579963936You are an utter retard>>579926318 but jannies allowing you to spam your off topic trash is even more retarded kys.
>>579964091You should vanish forever.
>>579963479True. Some other studio from CDPR employees is making the expansion too, they're spinning off into all sorts of new studios like Black Isle did. Should be some good stuff in 3-5 years.
I will probably try the star wars game one of these days, but not any time soon
>>579964162Janny doesn't do anything unless you post porn or say the hard r
>>579964162They insta-deleted my slur post but freely allow off topic posting. They didn't even give a shit about the chapgpt spam that took over an entire thread some time ago. They're a lost cause and this general is doomed.
>>579963597Yeah, I've really enjoyed it. I'll definitely play through it at least once more just to see how things can play out differently, different builds and so on. There's a few annoyances, the droideka fights are a pain, but all in all it's a 9/10 game. Best I've played in a while.
>>579963624Nope, I'm single and don't care for troons. Why is it that the people who complain the loudest about 'derailing' (aka 'posting about unapproved crpgs in the crpg general') are also the people who can't wait to derail the thread talking about all their conspiracy theories on who everyone is? Literally just talk about whatever crpg YOU want to talk about, I'm not stopping you. Here, I'll even get you started, "oooh anon, yrliet armpits, so stinky!" that's usually how it goes here, there now you're off to the usual start. I'll be over here posting about my CRPG and talking about it while you post about your CRPG and talk about it, okay? Okay.
>>579944554>fixedSolasta is still in the OP
>>579963871That's okay, because it wasn't an opinion, it's a fact. It is very rare for games to fit into a single neat box, as much as that might disturb some of the autism cases around here.
>>579964903Don't reply to me.
>>579964350>>579964447Even that vandalized thread from 12 hrs ago is still somehow up holy shit...
>>579964989janny no care. I noticed /v/ has more ass moderation too
>>579964028I guess we'll agree to disagree. My definition of a CRPG is the only logically coherent one around here, and it fits that perfectly. All this time spent worrying that someone played a game the anon hivebrain didn't approve of could have been spent talking about things you actually like, assuming you actually like anything. Maybe you should do that.
>>579964989My bet is that most of the staff are SEAmonkeys that mostly hang out in the gacha generals, so they don't know what's going on around the board at large. Actual game generals are a minority in /vg/ compared to the sea of gacha shit here, which is the only reason why someone would volunteer to janny for this shithole.
>>579965150Judging by /gig/, they're not very good at their job of keeping an eye on the gacha generals
>>579964162Posting about a CRPG I enjoyed in the CRPG general isn't 'off-topic'. Again, I remind you that you can simply leave me in peace, and you can post whatever CRPG you want to talk about while I post about the CRPG I want to talk about it. You're only stopped by you.
>>579965285Or you can leave the general in peace instead of committing post terrorism.
>>579964180People would miss me if I did. I can't help but wonder how many of you can say the same, seeing the vitriol and the absurd autism hate you have for anyone playing a CRPG not on your approved based boy anonbrain list. I can't picture you acting the way some of you do if you had love and joy in your life. A good first step would be for some of you to post about the things that bring you joy instead of wallowing in anger and hate all the time. Be a jedi anon, not a sith anon.
>>579964321Hope you like it as much as I did
>>579964958
>>579965246guess no one volunteered then
>>579965393I'm just posting in peace. If some people get riled up by that and have an autism fit, well, that's on them I guess. All I can do is keep posting about the CRPGs I like and encourage other anons to do the same.
TQ: how can your dolly know to fuck like a pro if she's supposed to be a virgin?
I'm glad she survived, easily my favorite character of the bunch. I know she has to die eventually though. Maybe they can stick her on the Jedi Survivor planet.
>>579965915>>579966097
>>579966062
Dantooine was nice. I'm glad we never went to Tatooine or Hoth as is typical for these games.
>>579965907They do when you use the nono word as you just experienced. It's funny because he also went on a rant spamming it and all his posts got deleted and he was bannedThen some days later he did the exact same thing but spamming schizo AI ramblings and nothing happened
Tel was my favorite companion, but I did enjoy the banter between them, especially as you level up the bond and they become friendlier. Lots of other CRPGs could learn a thing or two about mechanically interesting party politics from this game.
>>579966312Janny only deleted some of his AI spam, mostly if he used his boyfriend's name
Stop replying to that mentally ill freak. Jannies clearly dont give a fuck. Let it exhaust itself and if it tries to vandalize another thread ignore that one too.
>>579966312Maybe some times you think people are the same, and they aren't. Something to ponder.
>>579962783The yous you keep giving him
>>579966510To let terrorism go unpunished is traigc, but it's the state of things.Board derailers have effectively won with this garbage janny staff.
Tel with some very topical wisdom for some of you. You complain about a thing that you bring about yourself, all because a stranger enjoying a CRPG that you don't find to be sufficiently 'based' sends you into a rage. Why whine? Why not post about the things you like, like Rogue Trader, stalking redditors, imagining the smell? Step outside yourself and look at what you're really doing with an honest eye.
>>579966510No one is replying to him, hes just spamming regardless
One thing I really liked was that party members have relationships with each other, not just you, and it would develop organically over time based on how you played the game and the choices you made. Most CRPGs have the party members changing their opinion of the player (some don't even have that), but few of them have dynamic companion-to-companion attitudes. Maybe Divinity will go that way.
>>579966957It is a seething chimp. Let it exhaust itself. Stop giving it attention.
I thought Gorga would be a bigger deal, especially after thing happened. Maybe in an eventual expansion. I read that they furloughed most of the staff just prior to release, but now it's reviewing well and has been on Steam's top sellers all week, so who knows. Shades of Troika and VTMB.
>>579967036>One thing I really liked was that party members have relationships with each otherinter party relationships and interactions in general are underutilized, outside of random camp banters etc in some games
>>579964469is it fine if i'm not really into star wars? or is it like that harry potter game, the hogwarts one that was more show-and-tell than game
>>579967206well, that settles it thennot an rpg
What language was the grey army inspired by? Is it actually readable or understandable to someone who knows some Serbian or Slavic languages?Sørmirbæren stuff is very understandable for anyone familiar with the Scandinavian languages like Norwegian, Swedish and Danish, but there's also some Norse there. >Sørmirbæren language could be called a nordic creole language, similarly to how Fatherland language spoken by Gray Army soldiers and Kokoschka is a proto-slavic language or perhaps a slavic creole. Sørmirbæren most closely resembles Norwegian, but incorporates elements from all north germanic languages and even bits of Finnish in its vocabulary.
>>579967206Yeah, genre is a continuum. As I said, games very rarely fit entirely in one box or the other, hence indeterminate language like "more than". You wouldn't say "that's more chicken than cow" because you're either a chicken OR a cow. But you can debate the 60/20/10/10 genre splits in most of these games. Is WOTR a strategy game because it has the war map? It's just one of those things that thoughtful people capable of nuance are fine with by default, but overly rigid autism people get really upset by it apparently. Oh well.In any case, I really liked the (brief) haunted ship segment.
>only reason he boughted the soi wars game to spam on /vg/
>>579966462is this more kotr than xcom?i liked how xcom wasn't about your units, they were expendable. it would be pretty nice to have another crpg without all the companionslop (e.g. icewind dale), lately everything crpg has been waifus and shiet and that's mid
>>579967263Agreed. I think most devs just don't have a good handle on scoping and measure-twice-cut-once development. They can hardly get big player choices working without faking one out and merging everyone back to the same on-rails path, so branching companion interactions is an order above that. But maybe one day.The ideal is that there is separate, interesting content for when they like and hate each other, and hating each other isn't just a failure state with less game.
ya zero company is my goty so far. Glad to see other people enjoying it.Tactical rpg's exist. Fallout tactics and Wasteland are examples. Zero Company has a character focus and story focus that X-Com lacks, which brings it closer to fallout tactics/wasteland and saying "it's just x-com" isn't quite accurate. It's x-com with more story and character interactions, which is a tactical rpg.In any event, quibbles over genre aside, it's just a solid good game which is nice to have from this disney era. It feels like a breath of fresh air. Star Wars CAN be good.
GULP SHITTO USED THE FORCE
>>579967509Also, Sørmirbæren women are pretty hot. I like them and the pirate women.
>>579967442I wouldn't recommend it if you hate or are indifferent to Star Wars, no. I think the game is really well made and the combat especially is fun on its own, but if you don't care for the setting then you're always going to be missing a big piece of what made it great. It would be like somebody who hates fantasy trying out Baldur's Gate, it's always going to be a hard sell.
>>579967509my first thought was that it resembles czech or maybe even south slavic, more like serbian.
>>579967951ding ding ding troon is here, he didn't reply to you though
Which CRPG are you playing currently? Personally, I'm replaying Castlevania Symphony of the Night, it has stats, equipment and abilities so clearly it's a CRPG.Pic related, my and my fairy onahole.
>>579967906>crpg>no romance>no companionswho plays this boring ass shit
>>579967867
>>579923661micks should be eradicated
>>579967906dom(m)s...
>>579967752It's not like KotOR mechanically, except in the barest sense of having CRPG derived stats gameplay. Your units aren't really expendable here. You can recruit hirelings, and they're actually pretty well developed as characters (when you pick a voice you're picking a background story), but it's clear you're meant to use the 'real' party members. The combat is much closer to xcom than kotor, it is fully turn based, tactical grid, very similar to the Shadowrun games if you played those. Most of the story stuff happens on The Den, which is your Ebon Hawk equivalent, and then the exploration bits, and combat switches you over to the turn based mode.
>manfag shows up>suddenly he stops spamming#nooticed
>>579967978Yeah same, but I can't quite pin it because I don't know the language. I hope a Slavic speaking anon can pitch in one day and see if he understands some. There's definitely bits of Russian in there.
>>579964989this thread is vandalised too retard
>>579967906Wouldn't mind being dommed by the first twoA really funny sounding title / name if you know how to pronounce it though
>>579968302I would like for the dømm to dom me
>>579966510how new are you?few months ago the troon bumped the entire thread to the limit just because someone disagreed with it
>>579967867Has to suck for the devs to make something this good (and selling this good) only to get laid off a few weeks before it comes out.
>>579968502Solasta is a crpg
>>579967951i don't hate the setting: i didn't say that at all. i'm not really into star wars is what i said. for example, i enjoyed kotor, which is a star wars game. to use your example, i also enjoyed baldur's gate, even though i'm not really into forgotten realms. read again my post: i'm asking if it's more of a show-and-tell for the setting or if the game part is good enough for people who aren't there for the star wars. you really did this thing where you hallucinated a post and then answered this imagined post, while leaving my own question unanswered.
>>579968486i speak polish and i cannot read that. meanwhile, i can usually understand written czech and serbian to some limited extent. therefore i think that it is sufficiently distant from those languages that merely speaking it wouldn't be enough - you might as well try directly to decipher it
>>579968057That's okay, I swear some of you think this thread is your personal soap opera. "oooh who is that anon I bet he's anon no wait he's anon or is it SHE's anon huh, I bet anon and anon are in cahoots, they hate anon" it's so tiresome. Why can't you weirdos just post about CRPGs? Why are you even here if you don't want to talk about CRPGs? All you people do is constantly derail the thread.
>>579968618>Mass Effect
I had to take a break to mull it over, but in the end I couldn't justify letting the schizo go even if it would be funny. My party has been collecting bounties and putting people in prison so it would be too OOC.On that note, something I really enjoy in this game is that you can choose to be non-lethal. When you're in non-lethal mode, you knock people out. A lot of characters I role-play aren't the kind that would kill people for money, but a lot of CRPGs, even Serpent in the Staglands, usually only allow you to either kill them, or in some cases let them off the hook completely. The dove icon in the lower left-hand side corner means I'm in non-lethal mode.
>>579968578Definitely.t. NorwegianI wonder what Styg was thinking. Gunnar Edstrom is from East Underrail so there's clearly some Scandinavian stuff going on over there. Along with New Frontier Technologies being dedicated to marine technology, exploration and so on which is a classical Scandi/Nordic trope at this point
>>579968847It has waifus! so it might as well be. I rather ME talk than Goy Wars shill bot
>>579968609It's one of the many things I dislike about how the industry currently works, and has worked for the past decade. But studios that want to make good games will play it and see what they did and hire them, one hopes. If the world is fair.
>>579968647"hate or are indifferent" - in English, the 'or' is important, it means the statement didn't stop at 'hate'.And again, if you dislike the setting OR are indifferent to it (read: 'not really into') then you're probably better off playing something you're more into. Personally I'd love to see you skip this game and find some online English lessons to spend your time on.
>>579963936>I consider it a CRPG.then why did you have a sissy fit over froggyies indie games like vagrus?
>>579968964
>>579968791Interesting, thanks for the input regarding this.The closest I've gotten is that schtas is the phonetic equivalent of the Russian чтo alongside komvarische for tovarisch
>>579968964I was hoping they'd get brought back for DLC, but maybe that's too late now. There's a franchise here if they don't piss it away.
>>579968647>you really did this thing where you hallucinated a post and then answered this imagined post, while leaving my own question unanswered.All this retard does all day is upset himself by hallucinating things people haven't said
>>579969005I didn't. I only know of 'froggy' because of the anons here bringing him up ten times a day as a phantom that lives in their mind, and I have no idea what 'vagrus' is. Every third post here is one of you flailing wildly about and insisting that some anon is some other anon and then ranting about how that anon wronged you fifteen moons ago and now they're gonna pay. I suspect many of you come from sites like reddit where profile stalking is the default tactic for argument, and being on a site where we're all anonymous and have no post history drives some of you insane. Instead of adapting, you create new profiles in your mind to stalk. It's very weird, and it really lowers overall post quality here. It would be nice if some of you would learn to engage with the ideas presented instead of trying to decide which mental phantom you're dueling with today.
>>579969228yeah. maybe it's early onset alzheimers, or just an internet-debate type arguing thing. but did you see his reply to me? he's trying to talk like he didn't use 'hate fantasy' as the illustrative example, trying to walk back from it being a 'hate star wars' thing after being called out for hallucinating. actually, maybe he is not even fluent in english? he brings up english lessons like that's something he is proud of.i guess i'll just watch a youtube or something if i want a reply. or wait for it to go on sale. all the nu-star wars games flop, i might as well wait for 70% off
>>579969251Some of you are replacing waifu obsession and having the dollies kiss with anon obsession and having the anon dollies kiss. Very strange. Consider talking about CRPGs instead.
>>579969638He's shitposter, why are you trying to talk to him seriously

>>579970586His skin is black not because he is a negro, but because he is evil and it shows.He is a white, but evil which makes him look like a black
>>579970579>>579970586>>579970736That's a black nose and black lips.
they're now afraid of admitting that their favorite childhood villain was black
Wasn't Sarevok's OG voice actor black. I know he died
Bitter sweet. A CRPG like Zero Company can be 30 hours and you wish it was 60. Something like Wrath of the Righteous drags on for a hundred hours and you wish it was 20. Hard to get it right.
>>579970883Yeah he was, but VA skin color has little to say about the character they play.
>>579970883He's not dead at all, Larian just didn't bring him back for some reason just like Viconia's VA
>>579970383this thing is so gross stop posting it
>>579923805Just kill him. He's not worthy.
The final all-stars. Once you get the right build and gear for Tel you can guarantee a one-turn on anyone but a boss. I'll probably try a different set of first stringers when I play again, but it'll be hard to do without them. Being able to jetpack around the map is extremely useful too.
>>579971039>age 61 yearsHuh I thought he died. Must be thinking of another black guy
>>579971039That's fucking insane....They butchered them.
>>579971119Apparently she's a bug under the mask. Should be right up the alley of the some of the anime people we have posting here.

>>579971376I dont know what critical role is.
Managed to finally max out the bond with Luco in the end. Felt kind of cinematic.

>>579971376Do zoomers know the critical role people are all just voice actors who got a lot of work before being in critical role
>>579971574Oh I see
>>579971384Lord of War of course
>>579971618He got in because he works with dnd/wotc. I think it was Minsc's original VA wanted to come back too

finSorry to see it go, a great game and a great CRPG, much better than I expected going in. I'm sure it's something I'll return to, and when I do, I'll be sure to extensively post my playthrough right here on /crpgg/In the meantime, and against my better judgement, I've decided to put it up to a vote to see which CRPG I will play and post about here next. https://strawpoll.com/Dwyo3rblNyATo reiterate, I will be playing and posting ALL of these here eventually. This is just to decide what's next.
I don't particularly care for nu-Disney Star Wars but the SW blogposter can post about it here if they want, it beats talking about the same cuckshit for 300 posts or guessing Starrok's pokemon
>>579973112Mantranny will never love you
>>579972651>>579972939I still think it's a psy-op marketing technique because you are actually playing as Hitler 2.0 with amnesia.
Finished Rogue Trader today, i would give it overall 9/10 (10/10 atmosphere and music) but i have to lower it by 2 to 7/10 purely because combat is not balanced at all. Its so fucking stupid that even on Unfair in 200h game only first act is challenging and rest of the game you can finish fights on the first turn, most of the fights half of your team doesnt even get to act. Fucking ridiculous and i will be mad if owlcat will never fix because i want to replay it but not when combat is this braindead.
>>579973320Dark Heresy seems to have fixed it. Perhaps even overcompensated.
Not gonna click your IP logger you off topic scum poster.
>>579973173they are both awful, kill yourself!
>>579973624You can't see anyone's IP with strawpoll. The threat of getting someone's IP is greatly overstated anyways. Mine is 192.168.1.1, what can you do with that? Nothing. It's Hollywood nonsense.
>>579973320You are right about combat balance but watching Argenta maniacly laugh as she mows down everyone is always fun so i give it a pass in that regard.What i hate about the game is absoutely dogshit levelling and skill selection ui. Combine that with levelling all companions to level 55(?) is why i'm waiting for the last dlc for my last 2nd and last playthrough.
>>579973320Completely correct, and a common complaint. Owlcat cannot manage decent encounter design or maintain a solid and balanced power curve throughout the game whatsoever. Your parties power goes at an exponentially greater rate due to the badly designed character progression and, even worse, the TERRIBLE item progression such that by the time you get to the end game, Necrons are less challenging than Anvers Gangers were on Footfall. It's disgraceful, and one of the biggest problems with Rogue Trader, since, as you say, it utterly kills replayability. The only difference once you get to late Act 2 between just using Toybox to "kill all" vs actually playing out a combat is about 30-40 seconds of watching combat animations. Worth a single playthrough for the characters and setting, though. Best rendition of a Dark Eldar in a long time. Too bad about Yrliet, though.
When you're blogposting you're supposed to actually post about the game you're playing and not off topic thread drama
>>579973667only one of them is awful! love yourself and value your life!
>>579973320>and i will be mad if owlcat will never fix because i want to replay it but not when combat is this braindead.They won't. Every dlc makes the combat even easier
Mintharafag, its not only that you post offtopic garbage, its primarily that you have melties like you're having even still. If you want to be a person who is pleasant to have here you have to stop having schizo melties all the time.That's why when someone posts something offtopic about whatever else and it gets a little back and forth traction there's very little contention, because no one's having a gross shitfit for days on end as a result of it like you do.You need to stop talking to yourself here and just go to another thread, maybe back to /bgg/ or wherever you came from and be their problem instead.
>>579973497Im not even looking on DH untill its finished and patched in like 4 years. Meanwhile i wish they fixed this game i like already, its even more depressing because i keep checking mods and it doesnt seem like anyone is even interested in making community rebalance mod. In general RT mod scene seems very dead, its mostly worthless vanity shit like AI portraits.
>>579973112now this is riling
>>579974094>there can only be one namefag playing a SW game (very obscure IP)>there can only be one namefag with a 4k monitor>there can only be one namefag who types many words (even complicated ones)Imagine I posted an anime picture of telling you to take your meds
>>579974094
>>579974159It's better than RT anyhow. And the mod scene for RT is shit yes.
Cope, you're still bumping your sabotaged thread so you can link to it when this one is done and continue trolling the rest of crpgg.
>>579973969>decent encounter designthats the thing i loved encounter design in RT, pretty much every boss battle has special mechanic you need to play around, it mogs WotR and pretty much all rpgs. its just sad that all that effort is ruined by garbage talent/item balancing
>>579974094Absolute truth nuke.
I'm going to go take a nap. When I return, I really hope some of you have taken your meds.
>>57997332010/10 atmosphere and music but 6 or 7 or so combat is pretty common review, and mine too. It's one of my all time favorite games, but that's mostly because of the atmosphere, music, characters, and setting. The actual gameplay gets pretty easy the nanosecond you start putting simple synergies together.The good news is that Dark Heresy is much, much better in this regard. They heard feedback and steered in the other direction, combat is rather tough in DH. The final boss took me several tries, which never ever happened in RT.I still give RT a solid 8.5/10 all things considered because I love the good parts so much.
>>579974094>If you want to be a person who is pleasant to have hereTo do that he needs to stop being an avatarfag, he had his chance
>>579974668Isn't there a report function for those kinds of things or does it not work?
>>579974597>combat is rather tough in DHNTA, but I bloody love the combat in Dark HeresyI fear they'll make it too easy for full release, currently it offers a very satisfying level of challenge even on Normal
>>579974748lol lmao
>>579974159Owlcat games are notoriously difficult to mod and require a ton of time and maintenance, made worse by the fact that your mods will usually break every time a new DLC or patch comes out. The guy who did the Wol'jif romance mod for WotR flat out said if he knew what a pain in the ass it was going to be to make and maintain it, he would never have done it because it was such a nightmare. This is why there are virtually no major content mods for Rogue Trader at all, not even the much requested Argenta romance, because modders have realized that modding Owlcat games is too painful to be worth the time and effort. Unless Owlcat starts releasing mod tools or something expect the same thing for Dark Heresy.
>>579974597
>>579974094>If you want to be a person who is pleasant to have heresaid with zero irony
>>579974597nobody plays crpgs for the gameplay>b-b-b-but SCS BG>b-b-b-but WotRnobody plays crpgs for the gameplay
>>579974597>>579974782Personally I loved most fights in DH, on all difficulties, but I absolutely hated the Spires fight, you know the one. Excellent music, but fuck that fight in particular.
>>579974872nobody human plays any game for one singular thing, its a package
>>579974535Rogue Trader has terrible encounter design. Like every Owlcat game so far, it's just a stat check. If you built your characters right, they steamroll, if you didn't, they automatically lose. About the only fun encounter I can remember in the entire game was when the Daemonettes invade your chambers during a warp jump, since at least that had a little bit of novelty to it. Comparing Owlcat games encounter design to just about any other CRPG makes it blatantly obvious it's one of their worst aspects as a developer.
>>579975002I'm human and I play games for the waifus
>>579974094Who are you talking to AI bot
>>579974954Yeah it's a very tough fight that imo doesn't really convey necessary information well
>>579975062>I'm human>I play games for the waifusYou're mistaken. You only look human.
>>579974872>WotRWotR has terrible combat and encounter design, no idea why you tried to use it as an example of a CRPG play for the combat. WotR is just a character builder, the actual combat is complete garbage.
>>579973112Christ, those choices are all bad
>>579975035you dont know what encounter design is you fucking retard
>>579973112>I will be playing and posting ALL of these here eventually
>>579975163Only my mom is allowed to say these things to me
>>579975035Rogue Trader has a shitton of cool themed battles and all dlcs make it even betterBut none of this matters due to how OP you areHonestly, simply completely removing Momentum and it's cheat buttons would do a lot to fix balance. Entire Momentum system is retarded
>>579974094but schizoanon, if these posters are all the namefag how do you explain these posts>>579968964>>57996899223 seconds differenceI just think they're different peoplelet me know your reasoning for this and maybe we can reach an understanding
>>579975723He owns two businesses, imagine how many cellphones he has.
>>579974597i believe they do not even need to do that much to make combat better. Removing initiative cheat from grand strategist, nerfing rate of fire burst stacking and reworking Argenta ultimate with slight adjustments to momentum gain would make combat 10x better already. There are some ridiculous talents like Alacrity which should be removed or capped.
>only responded to the attention whore
>>579975981This is how you know, though I'm sure there are some having fun with it too.
>>579975286Decent encounter design means there are multiple approaches to a fight and you actually have to think about what you're doing in order to effectively progress. A simple example would be the Orc ambush in Fir'kraags lair in BG2, it's a series of archers behind slits that are sealed off by two points of entry which are both locked. If you simply walk into the room unprepared (at the appropriate level, anyway) you will get shredded, especially your lower AC casters. However, you can avoid this by having solid archers of your own exchange fire (though you'll still take damage this way), or you can send a Thief in with stealth and unlock the doors then rush them in melee, which allows you to defeat the encounter with relatively little damage. Of course you can just bruteforce it, especially if you're overleveled, but the point is there are multiple ways to approach the fight and taking the smarter options actually improves your chances and mitigates the damage you take. That is good encounter design, it rewards the player for thinking about what they're doing and doing more than just blindly right clicking their party forward.Compare that to Owlcat games, especially Rogue Trader, there is no different approach you can take to an encounter. There's no different approach or smart thing you can do as a player, tactically, to improve your odds or simply perform better in the encounter at hand. You simply right click your guys forward, the encounter starts, and the stat check plays out. It's probably the worst part about Owlcat games as a whole, well, that and their terrible itemization.
>>579976275>types exactly like the bot arguing about rapeCan't wait for anons to SERIOUSLY respond to this
The namefag is killing this general and all we can do is watch
>>579976587That's why he does until a new general catches his interest. Asha please make Todd go faster on TES6.
>>579976756Jannies sure as fuck ain't doing anything because they're compromised.
>>579976587Nothing for it unfortunately, you can starve the schizo of attention but he's going to just act up more and more until he's satisfied. What that looks like, who knows.
>>579976905And if it's not him it's his simpsit's over
>>579976587Yes, it is quite fucked up.
>>579975529I like how Owlcats bandaid fix to this in Void Shadows was to straight up put a hard cap on how much damage you can do in the final fight to the last boss per round, so it thrillingly takes a couple more rounds to do what you easily could've done in the first. They didn't even try, they just hard capped it so the fight wouldn't be over in one round since they had no idea how to actually balance out the encounter without that happening outside of straight up fiat and 4th wall breaking "you just can't damage it more than 25% a round okay, you just can't" bullshit.Also yes the Momentum system is terrible and was a gigantic mistake, second only to Officers. How hard is it for RPG developers to understand that the action economy is the be all end all in a TBC system? Stuff that can give extra turns will ALWAYS be incredibly overpowered and strong, which is why most RPG systems, if they give that ability at all, only give it at the very end tail of character power. And when they don't, it fucking breaks the system every single time. See D&D 3E Haste for another great example of this in action. Additionally, another huge problem with Officers beyond the action economy is the fact that, due to how CRPGs work, creating a class such as Officer is a terrible, terrible idea because all combat encounters must be designed to be defeatable ASSUMING an Officer is NOT present. So when an Officer IS present, the statistical buffs they give massively overpower the party since you are now hitting and doing damage at a much higher rate than the encounter is designed to handle. You would need to fundamentally rework Officers entirely to fix this problem, which won't happen, and that is why they will most certainly be either making every encounter a cakewalk ala RT, or become MANDATORY to take in your party if you are to effectively beat encounters. The existence of such a class leaves no room for any other outcome.
Why isn't there a Star Wars general for ALL the games? There should be
>>579976587I think its what he wants
>>579977081Low quality, off-topic, spamming isn't rule breaking?
>>579977146I think so.
>>579977045there is in /vm/
>>579977230I don't know if jannies will care to make sure to differentiate if a tactical rpg is off-topic from a normal crpg or an action rpg or whatever else.They'll probably just check for volume of reports instead if I had to guess.
>>579977224Of course you aren't, actual discussion of CRPG mechanics and design is not what you're here for, you're only here to obsess about romances and cuckoldry.
>>579977380They don'tSee the AI spam thread a little while back.
>>579976905I will keep calling him a fat troon, I know it pisses him off. See why he deleted >>579969251
The only thing /crpgg/ ever wants to talk about is other anons. Anyone talking about games is met with jeers and seethe. Just something I've noticed these past few months. Maybe instead of /crpgg/ you need /anong/ where you can gather to talk about the latest gossip.
>>579977360I have never namefagged once and I never will, you faggot. You know one of the worst parts about namefags is that they get people who start talking and obsessing about them on top of the already inane faggotry of trying to give yourself an identity on an anonymous board. If there is a namefag shitting up the thread just treat them as another anon or flat out ignore them, constantly crying about them is just giving them what they want, validation and attention.
And then there is his strongest soldier pretending to care about crpgs when in truth he's only here to suck off his namefag idol
>>579977280Its for the MMO. There should be one here for EVERY Star Wars game so I don't have to see its fanboys clog up here.
>>579977461It's such a telltale sign how he has janny friends.
You haven't been here for the past few months then because its usually waifuposting and owlcat game commentary with shitposts interspersed.
It's possible to see the difference between posts deleted by a janny and posts deleted by a user. Don't know if you knew that or not, thought some of you might find it interesting to learn.
>>579977035the funny thing is the latest DLC boss has 4 phases so cant be 1 tap him and gets to act every time you give someone extra turn, so they are clearly aware about the issues but for some reason do not fix them.
>>579977594>pretending to care about crpgsHe's been doing that since he started to spam his screenshots.>>579977663I didn't delete my post though

>>579977948You confuse allowing and people not mass reporting 30 posts an hour because that's just not realistic
I've seen that one before...
>>579977948This. /crpgg/ is doomed
>>579977763To be fair, what can they really do? It would require a fundamental rebalance and rework of the entire combat system and reworking Officers as well, at the least, to even begin to fix the problem. Add to that the ridiculous item power glut that exists and you have a near impossible problem to fix. It would be a titanic effort and only the few obsessives that want to replay the game repeatedly would even notice or care. I am pretty cynical about this stuff so if anything I'm surprised they're actually (seemingly) trying to at least somewhat make the combat better in Dark Heresy, I thought it would just be more of the same. Still don't see how they can fix the Officer problem without completely reworking the class though, so that's still going to be an issue in DH. At least the Momentum system has been mothballed. Also it IS still the beta, and plebes will be plebes, so it's entirely possible the combat will get nerfed to RT levels by the time the game comes out, too. We also don't know if they fucked up on itemization again, either. Still, at least they're seeming to take steps in the right direction with what we've seen so far.
>>579977771Well nobody goes to /vm/, it should be here next to the gacha threads
>>579977035>4th wall breaking "you just can't damage it more than 25% a round okay, you just can't" bullshit.It's okay when Elden Ring does it
Scrolling through the thread it seems it was only nice when it started, then the schizo namefag showed up in the slow hours and now its everyone talking about him instead
Hearing brown zoomers call three sentences an 'essay' is always funny in a bleak sort of way.
>>579978301It's bad design no matter who does it, either balance the encounter properly or let it get steamrolled, putting in hard limits like that shows a complete and utter failure on the developers part since it's an implicit admission they have no clue how to make it challenging within the system they're working with.
You know what really helps is when you give an attention whore constant attention and make it impossible for everyone else to discuss anything else around them
>>579978309>nice when it startedNo, it was list autism and weird thread drama right from the jump. All these people ever talk about is the namefag, guessing who the namefag is, decrying the crimes of the namefag, demanding justice be done on the namefag, etc. Every OP from now on should be called the namefag edition, and the autism list should be replaced with a list that just says "namefag" fifty times.

Holy fuck, namefag dicksuckers are absolutely insufferable. This board would be a better place if those would die as well.

>>579979210where am I seething?
>>579978198They could remove initiative cheat from cassia and that would already make combat 5x times better, i dont have any hopes for full officer rework but they could limit free turn bullshit and nerf obvious OP ultimate, talents and items, maybe then if you play with difficulty slider to the max(above unfair) to get -75% momentum and other sliders maxed like dodge maybe combat would last longer than 1 round.
You guys are genuinely fucking retarded. The easiest way to deal with a namefag is to just ignore them. Instead you constantly cry about them giving them what they want, attention, so it never fucking ends and on top of namefaggotry we also have half the thread crying about namefaggotry, instead of the usual cuckposting and romancefaggotry discussion.
>>579979462In the post I replied to for one. And I'm not going to play this stupid reddit citation game with you, you know you're acting like a faggot, so just stop. Every day I click this thread and it's the same people acting like faggots, and it's not even in a new or interesting way, you're literally just repeating the same shit you said every other day. Namefag, brevity, we get it.

>>579937078I've been toying with the idea of an anime style magical girl CRPG. Your character stats would be magical girl themed, love, magic, friendship, cuteness etc. You would go on adventures, but have a management part where you need to manage you daily life to keep your magical girl identity secret from your parents.
>>579979494You're not wrong but namefaggots tend to start replying to themselves to create the semblance of engagement and then newcomers think that's normal and the cycle starts over. I don't know if there's another solution though.
>>579979465>Maybe combat would last longer than 1 roundNah, it doesn't, I've played with all the sliders maxed and it still turns into the same thing every time. And yeah Grand Strategist was also a gigantic mistake, second only to extra turns for breaking turn based combat systems is initiative abuse. Most TBC systems turn into Alpha Strike syndrome for a reason.
>>579979494>le just le ignore themutterly retarded and NEVER works
>>579979642Put your name back on.
>>579979739>>579979690>I don't know if there's another solution though.the simplest way is to start talking about WAIFUS and GAMES but tourists and trolls don't wanna do that
>>579979494>just ignore the trannyMintharafag has been plaguing /crpgg/ for a very long time though, at least a year if not more.
>>579979038
>>579979919You start bitching every time that happens THOUGH.
>>579979919He's a waifufag retard, that will just summon him to post his lesbian virgintiy analysis
>>579979652>>579979690So what? "Other anons are being retarded faggots and responding to the namefag or the namefag is samefagging, ,so I will join in the retardation" is your logic? As I said, you guys are retarded. Just stop engaging with the namefag until they stop namefagging, it's literally that fucking easy. And even if they don't stop, at least their posts are just some void with a samefag response or two, rather than the entire fucking thread being filled with discussion about the namefag. Just stop paying attention to them and the problem solves itself. Crying about it has the opposite effect you're looking for. Negative attention is still attention and you have to starve these fuckers out entirely in order to get them to stop.
>>579980016not true I love WAIFUS and GAMES unlike you
>>579979953And everyone was fine ignoring it until you retards decided to make this entire fucking general about him.
>>579980087You are disgustingly naive. It must be your first week here, maybe less. You'd know how the namefag operates if it wasn't the case.
No I don't want to talk about Mantranny, Yrliet, and non-crpgs. Why is that so hard for you to understand?
>>579980087>at least their posts are just some void with a samefag response or twoBut then>namefag gets triggered by something>fills the thread with pseudobabble>AI generates nonsense for hours>Pretends to be other anons to start shit with themselves anyway
>>579980313How can one poster have so much influence? Is it possible to learn this power?
>>579980195Mother fucker namefags have been a plague for far longer than you've been posting here, the fact you think this shit is unique or new is laughable. You are doing nothing but shitting up the thread by crying about them, which is MAGNIFYING the problem rather than doing anything to stop or fix it.
>>579980087He's been spamming generals for decade bro. This isn't new.>Negative attention is still attention duh but it still triggers him. imagine his blood pressure right now
>>579980401Too on the nose, you give the game away. Be subtle, kayfabe for us both.
>>579980313And? How are you making it better by bitching about it? You're just increasing the pile of shit people have to wade through and giving the namefag attention which fuels them to continue shitting up the thread. Ideally all namefags would be thrown into woodchippers but it's not an ideal world so just stop engaging with them and leave them to talk to themselves and their AI chatbots. If you want the thread to be better make posts about actually relevant CRPG stuff rather than turning it into a catfight and gossip chamber centered around namefaggotry. Trust me when I say you do not want to go the way of /ffxivg.
>>579980401Be autistic, be a virgin, have a superiority complex, be a neet, and have rich parents who buy you everything you want. There you GO
>>579980686What happened to ffxivg?
>>579980686le me guess. tranny erp?
>>579980780the ff14 general is just a bunch of goonlord discord users in-talking. I think all games with create a dollie get like that
There's a weird sort of inversion here where people who post about CRPGs are cried about and told they're derailing the thread, but then the people who did the crying will spend the next ten hours raging about some named anon and all his slights. Posting about games is 'spamming', but exhaustively detailing your one-sided blood feud with a guy on the internet is on track. I don't know, maybe some of you need medication.
>>579980686Put your name back on.
>>579980919When will you learn its not just 1 person who hates him
>>579980919>who post about CRPGsNot a crpgNotice how your meme strawpoll has no crpgs either besides DOS2
Can one of you mon-keighs explain why you expend so much effort arguing among yourselves over such trivial matters? I cannot say I am surprised. This is why your species will always be inferior to us, the proud Aeldari. We were conquering the stars when you were still playing with your mon-keigh excrement.
>>579980919You always leave out the part where you purposefully sabotage the threads yourself when you post this
>>579980919You never posted any crpgs.Note how the Banquet for Fools poster, Rogue Trader poster, Underrail poster, Baldurs Gate 1 poster and Wizardry poster get very few to none complaints.Maybe it should clue you in when you are met with only verbal abuse when you post unrelated garbage games that are not crpgs.
>>579980919Yeah look at the last hundred posts or so, like two-three guys started to talk about RT combat mechanics and class design and everyone else just started gossiping about namefags instead of actually talking about a CRPG. Disgraceful.
anyone else do this?
>>579981159Why are you posting Yrliet when pretending to be Eldar? She's the most not Eldar ever written in 40K, Yrliet is like some Human cosplaying what they think an Eldar is, that's how badly she's written and characterized. Terrible character on every level.
>>579981419Some YDS is almost refreshing in these dark times
>>579980919blame reversal is very common in politicsaccuse the other guy of doing the thing you've been doing, making dialogue impossible and polarizingI'm not derailing, you're derailingI'm not shitposting, you're shitpostingI'm not hitting you, your face is just in the wayetc
>>579981045Didn't say it was, I'm describing collective behaviors. I could also say something along the lines of "I'll learn it's not 1 person who hates him when you learn it's not 1 person who knows how to write a sentence"It's obsessive, it's all you people ever talk about. Half of you probably have one of those conspiracy nut corkboards on your wall with a bunch of yarn connections between the namefag and JFK.>>579981262So I noticed. Something similar takes place virtually every day here. They claim they want something, but when they get it they hate it. They claim to hate something, but they do everything in their power to make sure it's a constant fixture here.
>ylireturds still trying
>>579981342Play Skyrim without modding out the incredibly ugly character models? No, I do not, and I pity anyone who does.
>>579981498Especially coming from a butthurt eldarfag
>>579981638That model is incredibly ugly.
>>579981638For all the supposed porn mods of Skyrim and all the quality "coom" with "endless possibility" there are no scat or fart mods.
Why are moids incapable of understanding Yrliet and her romance?
>>579981638Why don't you people ever make this game look like anything other than a korean mmo
>>579981660Craftworld Eldar really are terribly written in Rogue Trader in general, it goes far beyond just Yrliet. Which is rather odd since they did a great job on every other faction, including even the Dark Eldar. I still feel like Yrliet and Crudarach Eldar were a rush job or last minute addition to the game with how badly they're handled. It's not an author problem either, the writer who did Yrliet wrote Cassia so clearly they're capable of competence.
>>579980223
>>579981838They only care about one thing and it's fucking disgusting
>>579981910There's a lot of anime people here unfortunately. Mod authors typically have no taste or discernment, modders usually don't either, porno gamers aren't known for their good taste, and we all know what animus are like. Skyrim modding has all that blended together, multiple layers of bad taste.
>>579981838Who even gives a fuck about Yrliets romance? I mean yeah it's as badly written as the rest of the character but even if you remove it entirely and it simply doesn't exist, Yrliet remains the worst written companion Owlcat ever made.
>>579981931GW has to look over all writing Owlcat does, yes it's true, they approve all drafts. So my guess her terrible story relates to GW forcing it. Owlcat are usually decent at character writing but Yrliet sticks out like a sore thumb.
This mechanic suddenly showed up out of nowhere without any explanation. I had to reload and be ready for it to figure out that it is a quick time event. If you miss the window, the boss guy deals a tonne of damage. Honestly not a fan.
>>579978782>She Comes at NightI bet
>>579982053That's nice and all but let's be real, ANYTHING is an improvement over the base Skyrim models.
>>579982205The visual style of this game is so incredibly pleasing. I'm sad it flopped.
>>579982065You moids only dislike her because she doesn't have sex with you
>>579981939You think it's cool to hate things. It's not. It's boring. Talk about what you love and keep quiet about what you don't.
>>579982359And if the things I love are being destroyed?
>>579982076I don't buy that, I think it's more likely they just didn't put any time or work into the character. For fucks sake you get more information on Craftworld Eldar and how they work/think from Marazhai than you do Yrliet, it's like the writer who did her read absolutely nothing about CW Eldar or how they work at ALL, and just quickly made a basic bitch "haughty Elf" character without actually paying attention to how CW Eldar work in 40K. For fucks sake they don't even go into detail on the Paths, which is like CW Eldar 101. Meanwhile every other companion gives you a full breakdown and lens into how their faction works in the setting. Yrliet is the only one who completely and utterly fails at this. You can't really chalk that up to GW interference.
>>579981558Put your name back on.
>>579982336Adding two sentences with some variation of "Yrliet jumped up and down on the Rogue Traders mighty dick" would not fix her character in any way shape or form.
>>579981638There are a lot of good Serana mods out there. The Serana in my game looks like this. Serana will always have a special place in my heart.So will Skyrim. Skyrim was a really special game, and most of the tes games that came before it were special too. Hopefully bethesda gets back on track and makes the next tes game really special too.
>>579982514This is also very likely, true. I dont know who wrote her, but ignorance definitely played a role when it came to writing. Which is strange because both Larry and Marzipan are quite decent. Yrliet is just terrible.Moid jealousy? Incompetence? Writer wanting to try out something new and failing?
why are yrlietfags like this?
>>579982279>it floppedwell, I only came across this game hereI think the reason some games flop comes down to marketinglike Disco Elysium wa splayed by many people and they had some good marketing, but their follow up (Zero Parades): I heard about it from here>also first time I am reading about the ZA/UM situation: they fired the whole DE team? jfc
>>579982279It flopped? Compared to Serpent in the Staglands, this feels very accessible. I would have expected it to do better.
>>579982639>two sentencesWould be pretty funny to see anons here softlocked out of progressing when they can't marathon their way through that.
>>579981910NTA, but if you want bespoke look then Bijin npc overhauls make everyone look pretty much just like in the Witcher 3. And that's still the most popular packOther than that you just install generic body + texture upgrades and you are fine
Owlcat should've just rubbed it in and make clear Yrliet is indeed fucking Marazhai in their shared ending. They should've also mentioned she had previous boyfriends back on her craftworld.
>>579982659Chad Olga coming through, I guess>isn't she the writer behind both of them?
Someone bake early because I know the namefag is going to hijack the OP again, that's why he's here now
>>579982652
>>579982678>>579982706Comparatively speaking it flopped. While it released in EA in a relative rough state and many updates have since come and the game has had a full release it never really gained a significant player traction since its initial early access launch. Which is a shame.More accessible and popular than Serpent in the Staglands, very likely, but this no doubt cost much more money to develop on their front.
Random question: have you ever not romanced a character because she reminded you too much of your sister?
elder scrolls is not crpg, go to the correct general
>>579978615Arue. Being a succubus she's the only one who could actually rape me. Sometimes I get tired of doing the pinning, neck-grabbing, throwing against the wall thing myself. A nice good violent rape would fix me100% straight male btw
>>579982828>that's why he's here nowHe's been here. He puts his name on when he wants to make an "honorable" in character post.
>>579982821We don't officially know yet who is writing Larry but yes, it does seem like Olga is inded behind him.
>that posting style>long ass wall of textsis this Serana/Cait/Star wars blond bitch fag? i thought he simped for Shart
Honestly, I'm in love with Shadowheart
>>579983086Hit the nail right on the head
>>579983086yes and he hates shadowheart for cucking him get, see his new name
>>579983086It took you this long to realize it? Yes it's him. I don't browse /bgg/ but my understanding is that he used to have Shart as his waifu but after the brothel cuckening he got mindbroken and moved onto Minthara, now he always likes to make passive aggressive posts about Shart cucking you with Halsin
>579983086>579983116coordinated, dont reply
>>579982903Jae doesn't exactly look like my older sister but her personality and general demeanor are very much like my sister's
>>579982821La'arthyr is already giving a better insight into Craftworld Eldar in the little snippets we've gotten of him (which is ironic since he's currently a Corsair) than Yrliet did in her entire character arc.
>>579983276A gypsie whore?
Well it is the weekend, he does sperg about Shadowheart on the weekends. /bgg/ is basically dead so he will do it here.
>that posting style>that love for lesbiansCould it be...? Anonymous from /lisg/?
>>579983331Well, he's still a former craftworlder. It makes sense that he does. Yrliet on the other hand... lol.
>>579983471I'm the anon that invented posting about Max and Chloe having lesbian sex, yes.
>>579983348Slimy, clearly up to no good but puts on a front about being a proper and functional member of society, prone to bribing to get her way, likes to vaguemax about what she wants in exchange for thingsA very tiring person to be around, to be quite honest with you, but she's still family
>rliet has bad writingcan you get a new topic?
>>579983672Ah yes I know the type
>>579978782>>579982217come on
>>579983779I expected it from the author's fake names
>>579978782Name back on
>>579982706Game looks like ass. Ugly games deserve to fail
>>579982514"This character is not a walking loredump" is a strange complaint to have. Isn't that a GOOD thing? My pet peeve is actually when a character is just there to talk about their <RACE> and <FACTION> as if they are not living in a world where that should be obvious but need to educate the player.
>>579983238>>579983212Kek. that is the most funniest shit ever. which girl does he simp in the Pathfinder games. i must simply know
>>579981931I really don't agree. They were fucked over offscreen, but their acts during the game are reasonable and they are making the best possible choices that are possible, with very limited options they have at hands.
>>579983739My condolences
>>579984002Same to you
>>579983986Camellia
>>579983986Galfrey since she's a touchless virgin who can't cuck him
>>579983968Yrliet doesn't have any interest in the world around her. She doesn't even try
>>579981931Cassia is a basic bitch shwltered princess character. Writing her is pisseasy. With yrliturd they tried to do something more complex and failed miserably. It just speaks for their middling writing ability. Nigga should stick to writong simple characters like cassia. I'd rather have simple but competent, than challenging but bad
>>579983968You need to understand that 40kfags don't care about the characters, just the factions and/or races, that's why they screech whenever the DLC companion slot is taken by a race/faction they don't like
>>579984173She's neurodivergent
>>579984374Stunning and brave!Owlcat got some extra blackrock money for it
>>579983086Serana would NEVER say that
>>579984374That's a fancy way of saying retarded
>that one autist that always spammed /v/ because yrliet wasn't infodump: the character is now hereweirdest shit ever to complain about that garbage character
>>579983968It's a 40K game, part of the fun is seeing all the interesting and cool factions that are part of the universe. Every other character in the retinue manages to fulfill this role AND (except for Solobore, maybe) ALSO be an interesting character in general. Yrliet fails at both of these things, and it's particularly egregious she fails at being, as you call it, a walking loredump since how badly do you have to fuck up in order to fail at that basic bitch of a task, writing wise? Not like it's hard to just have her go "so this is what CW Eldar are about and what we do", but Yrliets writer couldn't even manage that much. The rest of the character is even more of a catastrophe, of course, so you can't even use the "but the rest of her writing is good" excuse.
>>579984341Everything about warhammer seems ugly and stupid. The fans especially.
>>579984464*crushes her spirit stone*Ooops all Slaanesh!
>>579983990Let me put it to you this way: the Crudarach Eldar in RT make CW Eldar written by Gav Thorpe look menacing, thoughtful, and incredibly competent.
>>579983986I enjoy Arue and Galfrey.Octavia in km.Kib and Cas in RT and I am also among the multitude of people who would have liked Argenta as well.From the small preview we got I like Disco as well.Discussing waifus is fun, it's a shame a few bad apples here do what they do.
>>579984731
>>579984103>>579984156>Likes evil broken women that you can fix (serana, Cait)>Doesn't like Wenduag. aka the biggest "i can fix her" characterweird if you ask me
How do we go about making a Dragon Ball CRPG
>>579984519>AND (except for Solobore, maybe) ALSO be an interesting character in generalLol, no. Abelard, jae, macaque and kebab are not interesting
>>579982798Terrible
>>579984731That post was making fun you lol
>>579984668I don't care at all for arbitrary wins. And I don't understand the obsession with it. It always reminds of how spics are obsessed with that dragonball tranime. As if "winning" was all that matters
>>579984668Gav Thorpe pitched in, that's the only explanation
>>579984316You're not wrong. Although I wonder if even basic tropes are beyond this writers capacity, since Yrliet fails at even having interesting or decent resolutions to even her mischaracterized and poorly written issues, despite the fact the writer turned her into nothing more than "basic fantasy Elf that's too big for their britches".
>>579984939reddit coded post
>>579984731The problem is not that you simp for Argenta for being a pretty white latina. I'm happy for her. The problem is that you don't simp for Idira because she's black. That's on you. You need to stand up against racism, even the invisible kind.
>>579984731>it's a shame a few bad apples here do what they do.he's not wrong
>>579984802No way would he like Wendog. She openly talks about fucking your male companions, and Shart talking about Halsin has made him meltdown for 3 years.
>>579985041You will never fit in
>>579984731keep being positive and discussing crpg waifus. your posts are enjoyable compared to the constant vitriol in this place. this goes for anyone who discusses games instead of constant bitching
Cassia's and Yrliet's writer also wrote Jae.I wonder if she's writing anyone in Dark Heresy.
>>579985213that got under your skin
>>579985213please, are you going to rim him next. This is some next level faggotry.
>>579984903>AbelardA character doesn't have to be complex to be good and interesting. Abelard is fine.>JaeCan't see how you think she's uninteresting, she's one of the more complex characters in the retinue.>KibellahShe's just way too one note. The one note is written decently, but she needed more to her character than just "praise the Domin". >MacaqueI do not know who that is.
Less talented anons are always running everything into the ground. No timing, no forbearance. It's why they have no influence. One has to stay moving to stay ahead. But it's exhausting.
Is this what Hypatiafags want to fuck.

I beat game as Iconoclast and romanced Cass, now need a break now but plan to do another playthrough in the future preferably as Dogmatic(Im not edgy enough for Heretic), is it possible to romance Yrliet as dogmatic or its incompatible and i will have issues?
>>579985260Probably >>579985398Yes
>>579985491I hope she doesn't have a vagina anymore.
breaking bad crpg
>>579985471What faction in 40k is actually competent and intelligent
>>579985551>dogmatic romancing yrlietwhat is wrong with you?
>>579985551Nah it's still possible. You can easily rack up 5 dogma and 2 icono.
>>579985295You saw two anons agreeing on something, and immediately tranformed it into faggot sex in your mind. Very telling.
>>579985438Marazhai is the best written companion next to Pasqual, though, so I really can't agree with that at all. Of course most players will never realize this since Owlcat made him a late game companion and set up his recruitment and retainment as a retinue member in such a way that it's absolutely ridiculous to keep him in the party. As a character he's great, but his setup is done so poorly it makes no sense he's a companion in the first place. I really hope Owlcat has finally learned their lesson in Rogue Trader after seeing the abysmally low retinue usage rates of Ulfar and especially Marazhai and stops doing late game companion recruitment from this point on.
>>579985836What's a pasqual?
>>579985757what are my options? Jae but shes just too gipsy coded for me and also seem to be as incompatible with dogmatic as Yrliet

I fucked Halsin.
>>579985056Hey, i've seen this pasta before!
Halsin fucked me.
>>579985921He is. He has the best quest content (second to Pasqal), the best banter bar none, and is pretty much everything a Dark Eldar should be. I was pleasantly surprised that Owlcat didn't hold back and made him every bit the psychopathic, sadistic monster a Dark Eldar should be. Fantastic character.
Would Yrliet fuck Halsin?

Hurry up and bake before namefaggot fucks with the OP again
>>579986626I hate Yrliet for not representing her faction well AND for being terribly written in general, let's be clear here.
Your post is terribly written if it doesn't contain sex for my rogue trader
>>579985471How are they not? Take Muaran for an example. All his acts are entirely sensible, logical and sound. He has no manpower, no army to wage an all out war, but still has duty to protect this Maiden World. Janus suffers and it is because of humans, he is right. So he starts a guerrilla warfare and uses humans as pawns, training them and turning against their rulers. While their base of operations is kept hidden.They cannot walk openly among humans, so he sends infiltrators and spies. When disliked Outcast shows up, he uses her for this Mission, since it's the most sensible thing to do.You are opposed to him initially and outgun him. But being enemies towards each other initially is not a fault of his.It's actually insane that Yrliet is so eager to kill him for no reason at all. He is doing all that is possible to be done with resources and strategical options this scarce

The game put me on the yrliet path several times since I'm just cordial with her which passes the first couple stages and that included on dogmatic runs.Though how close your dogmatic character wants to get to a xenos is up to you.>>579985736There's a game called Schedule 1 that is about starting up a drug empire and it has stats and leveling but it's more of an action game, and more of a management game.>>579985756Tau. They have beaten multiple imperial crusades and have already expanded faster than humans originally did during the great expansion. They employ sensible tactics during fighting and they have by far the best diplomats and negotiations of the major factions.But it's also kind of an unfair situation, since they didn't have deamons breathing down their neck at all times throughout their development. Part of the reason why the imperium is so stupid and backwards is because Vashtorr shoves deamons through your computer screen if you innovate, so close minded unga bunga bullshit is an actual effective defense mechanism agaisnt the way chaos operates in their quest to devour human souls. Tau have very little warp presence, so are mostly ignored by chaos, and so had the luxury of developing technology and a moderate culture over the thousands of years of their development. >>579985903Kibb is any alignment.
>>579986818Muaran is an incompetent retard just like every other CW Eldar in RT. If he was good at his job an entire Craftworld wouldn't have been lost to a single missile guided by a fucking servitor (let's not even get into how retarded that plot point was in general, the idea of an entire Craftworld dying to something like that is beyond asinine, but again the writers for RT clearly knew nothing about CW Eldar so whatever), he didn't foresee or stop it, he didn't effectively gather together or protect his kin which were scattered all over the Koronus Expanse who die comically stupid deaths in Yrliets quest, and rather than prioritize the safety and escape of what few of his people remained, decided it was a great time to try and fuck with the leadership of a planet in the demesne of a Rogue Trader, surely that can't possibly go wrong.They genuinely have a webway portal standing right there. He could've simply escaped and regathered his people and come back to wreak whatever vengeance they wanted later, rather than trying to do too much with far too little like an infantile moron. Ah but Eldar live such short lives he couldn't possibly have been patient and wise, so it's understandable, right? Oh wait. Please dude, RT is generally written decently/well, but Yrliet and the CW Eldar in general are a glaring blight on the overall narrative. The game would've been far better had they not been present in any way shape or form, given how badly they're used and implemented in the narrative.
>>579986818Yeah but have you considered that they're mean to me?
>>579987548>>579987548>>579987548
>>579986887Yeah developers somehow blatantly expect the player to metagame so they don't actually set up the scenario of recruiting these types well at all, ever. They basically just assume the player will spare them because they want the companion and the narrative content that comes with them, and so they put the player in a situation where, if they're roleplaying at all, they just kill the guy because why the fuck wouldn't you? It's really bad form that CRPG developers still do this stupid shit.

>>579985329Abelard is boring because he has nothing going for him except being your fluffer. He is fine, but boringKebab has the same problem as yrliturd - written by a writer who was woefully unprepared and unskilled to write a character concept like that. The only time she was interesting was when you sentence her to death for murder. At that moment she demonstartes a personality, a character growth and agency. At all other times, including her "arc" resolution, she's just "tell me what to do, master" which ia boringJae ok maybe she is interesting to aome, but not for me. I just don't care for herMacaque is marazhao and he is boring. You buy a dark eldar and you a get a dark eldar. Nigger's got no arc and no story, murder lmao is just not intetrsting in the slightest. Plus he's poorly implemented
>>579987495her haircut is a old punk haircut to fit the alt girl aesthetic, like the image but less shaved. Its ugly but alternative
>>579987539Crude Rock was attacked with ancient Necrontyr weapon back from War in Heaven. Craftworlds are a small and weak remnant of an ancient Eldar Empire. It makes sense that of all things, this would fuck them upEldar may have time to live long, but Janus doesn't and it's his duty to protect it. Situation is fucked up and everything is crashing down. Muaran has no ship and travelling Webway is dangerous as well
>>579986818I know nothing about 40gay lore but cool image. I would recruit that guy
What race should I go for my magic deciever?
>>579984610>incorporating her into slaanesh to own the yrilibs
