Just finished the game.
I mostly ran H'aanit, Olberic, Tressa, and Ophilia. I liked how H'aanit and Tressa's combat roles changed over the the course of the game. Tressa changes from just being a BPslut to having the highest potential damage output of all the base jobs. I really liked H'aanit's mechanic of capturing monsters and attacking with them. It made exploring and fighting new trash mobs fun, and he also went from being the top damage dealer to being nearly useless depending on what she had on her and what you were up against. For most of the game she was my favorite, and at quarrycrest I wished I could swap her out. It tapered off into uselessness by act 4 though. First the late game monsters just have ridiculously low capture rates, at 1 hp and fully boosted they were at like 20%, at that point it's just frustrating, and once you've experimented with using them their charges are half spent. Secondly the top monsters are weaker compared to the top weapons and skills, this is fine. I like how her party role changes from boss fight damage dealer to utility, and I can't imagine beating any of the job bosses without leghold.
The mechanic where each character can interact with npcs a certain way was mostly just annoying, this was greatly exacerbated by some bosses not showing up until I fetch Cyrus, have him talk to a key NPC, and then put him back in the inn where he belongs.
Considering how simple they were the stories still managed to draw me in, the music probably helped a lot.

I think PoE is particularly insidious because outside of stash tabs which you basically only need to grab like $60-$100 worth of to be set for life you can't actually 'buy power.' What PoE does instead is make the game so bloated and RNG heavy that you are 'forced' to play hundreds of hours each reset to experience the full breadth of a seasonal playthrough.

Which incentivises the player to want to buy cosmetic microtransactions out of a) guilt at enjoying a 'free' game of this magnitude and b) boredom from looking at the same thing for hundreds of hours. It's all of the sins of traditional F2P design (elongated achievement) without any of the accompanying intentionality to drive the player to buying a shortcut. It's just long for longness' sake.

It's genuinely the ultimate autism game. Made by autists for autists.

GD does have hidden superbosses that will make you care about positioning but they're the exception.

LE has a lot more of them as in a real regular feature. That's why it'll win out after a few more content delivery to catch up to GD's lead, though I like both games.

Paying for stash tabs is absolutely crippleware in a diablo clone unless you believe sorting your inventory for 30 extra minutes every run doesn't cripple your power level.

>It's genuinely the ultimate autism game. Made by autists for autists.
It really is, I wish they had something else going for them besides autism since some of their ideas are halfway decent.

The Council was alright, but it suffered from story going apeshit and episodic format lead to re-use of already limited number of locations. Swansong, in comparison, was devs getting the budget to make a complete game, fix the asset re-use and still somehow not learn anything.
>>
>>3563791
The main interesting thing about the Council is a game where the character building and dialogue was more fleshed out in terms of dialogue.

Why is every NPC a walking wikipedia infodump in this game?
>No, you don't get it. It's too le smart for you even though it commits a fatal writing flaw which is constantly showering the reader with exposition dumps.
This shit badly written and boring. Godawful combat system and graphics/visuals as well (it's so brown it looks like someone took a shit on my screen). I fail to see why it's so praised.

God I wish OpenMW would stop removing features it's had for years to appeal to vanilla purists who will never stop playing the original engine anyway. It's like how TF2 ruined so many items and elements to appeal to comp fags who didn't even bother unbanned any of the new item reworks or playing Valve competitive.

Use openmw, old engine is old, 32bit, limited memory, buggy, riddled with save corruption etc.
Literally no reason to use it unless you want to play with some meme script extender mods like ashfall

As soon as I heard he was the inquisitor for the Church of the Flame, I expected crap, but somehow his story is like top 3 from either game so far. Also have high hopes for Throne, but she just seems like a hybrid of Primrose and Theron so I’m not sure if she’ll beat either of their stories.

>the world not reacting to you gives you a narcissistic injury.
But it does react: the Black Horser Courier releases new editions as you progress through the quests, you are hailed as the champion of Bruma after the battle and receive a statue... You're still a hero, it's just that there's another one because the game is a big reference to Arena and Battlespire.
>>
>>3563642
>You're still a hero, it's just that there's another one
In a sense your hero makes Martin a hero, saves and inspires him, and gets shit done. Hell, the champion is the one who unites Cyrodiil's forces, not the emperor or the empire, with the council being too busy worrying about the provinces. Baurus was another character with some initiative.

The champion was the driving force throughout the story.
