Why is this game not discussed more frequently among the CRPG community? It's the most faithful adaptation of 3.5E D&D. It's focused on dungeon crawling. It's turn based, like all D&D adaptations should be. Plus the visuals are very nice. Yes, it was buggy on launch but it now runs perfectly fine with Co* and Temple+. Maybe because it is set in Greyhawk?Anyway, ToEE thread.
>>3698725It's a boring dungeon crawler.
>>3698734Just like Baldur's Gate 1, Icewind Dale, Pathfinder WOTR and many others. Your point?
>>36987253.5e sucks and anyone who claims the opposite is lying.I tried playing this game but the 3.5 jank is such a turn off I quickly dropped It.
I wanna play this gane, but I hate 3E. Why isn't it on Steam? Anyone have a good internet archive link?
>>3698750>I wanna play this gane, but I hate 3EYou probably won’t like it, then. It used to be on GoG
>>3698736>Baldur's Gate 1Bg1 has few dungeons, it’s mostly comfy low level DnD tromping through the woods with your bros vibes.
>>3698760It's shit either way
>>3698737Why don't you like 3.5E? My experience with 3E is IWD2 and NWN. I actually like both games a lot, but the character building always leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Maybe I'm just autistic. Anyway, I get choice freeze really bad. It's really hard to make educated decisions because everything is standardized, the selection of abilities/talents/feats or whatever they're called is bloated to hell and there is generally very poor referencing available to the player. So you have to literally study the entire library of choices to make sure what you're picking is not only relevant to the module you're going to be in, but you need to make sure it's viable and therefore a competitive choice amongst all of the choices you have. Guaranteed I'm not going to make the character I really wanted to play because I'm gonna get balls deep in this module and realize I don't have the prereqs for something way more in line with what I wanted OR what I chose is just not that great and/or pretty lame. I also think slapping all these "classes" together creating these hybrid characters is so stupid. None of the pure classes are ever optimal. It's always some mix and match party going on. "Classes" just don't make sense in that context to me.
The ultimate bladder stone simulator>>3698734It is a crpg, dungeon crawler is a different genre.>>3698737Your opinion sucks, 3.5e is great.
>>3698828>Your opinion sucks, 3.5e is great.Why?
>>3698776>None of the pure classes are ever optimalPure classes are optimal, hybrids are just overpowered minmaxer shit
>>3698934>Pure classes are optimal, hybrids are just overpowered minmaxer shitDips are for faggots.

It's turn based, like all D&D adaptations should be. You answered your own question. CRPG community tends to obsess over story and characters rather than how accurately the ruleset was adapted.
>>3698964Is accuracy really the important thing here?
>>3698725Because it has no STOORYDA STOORY is so important for casual retards
>>3698991It has though
>>3698725Because it's based on actual tabletop rpg modules. Most people here don't actually like rpgs, they like fantasy flavored adventure games. It's also a more legit implementation of 3.5e, not like owlcat where everything has been dumbed down and sped up to play like a jrpg.
>>3698725What needs to be discussed? 3.5 builds? Boring. The narrative? Bland. People talk about it as much as you'd expect considering its rocky start. As you get older, you'll realize that not everything has to be talked about all the time.
>>3699037This place has had many, many bump limit threads and playthroughs of this game before everyone left and the board developed into the sorry boring state it is in now where people make the same exact threads on the same awful games every single day. I'm actually not sure why this board exists anymore. It's clearly not for RPGs and the retards who it was supposed to contain here just spam threads on /v/ every single day anyways. It really needs to be deleted.
>>3699042See you tomorrow, faggot.
>>3699037Every decent poster this place has ever had has played through the game here and had plenty to say about it.
>>3699042Moeblob, just kill yourself. Hell is other people.>>3699045...
>>3699009I know it has, but its not important (as it should) Important rule to RPG discussion: If you see someone sperging too much about DA STOORY you can safely assume they have shit taste in games.
>>3699037ToEE isn't build reliant because it's a real rpg and what matters is the journey. Maybe you just don't like these games.
>>3699048Is that really the Moeblob? he is a fucking legend, nobody slays retarded crpg plebs like him, i learned a lot from moeblob but i dont see him these day, maybe he got banned?
>>3699053He just moved to /a/ and /v/ and still has the same schtick. Moeblob got banned like 5 times a day here, the janitor absolutely hated him.
>>3699052Non sequitur. I've beat 'this' game 3 times.
>>3699058I don't think you know what non sequitr means or how to use it. Are you an ESL?
>>3699060It means that what he said doesn't follow logically from what I said. You are midwit.
>>3699066Apparently you don't know how to use it and you don't know how to use midwit either.
Did you know that TOEE has a gay marriage option? Betram the pirate, heh buttpirates, is in Nulb and will marry a male party member if you rescue him.
>>3698964Balance is the key. Too much focus on storytelling at the cost of gameplay is bad. Too much focus on dungeon crawling and combat is fucking boring. Only autists like that, and not the good kind. The kind that put 10,000 in Runescape because they like doing the same thing over and over.
>>3698725The game is not on Steam & not zoomer-friendly installation process.Simple as.
>>3699035sad
>>3699139Gradually, I began to hate them.
>>3699074Well, this fact lacks some details.There are two versions of Bertram: 1) Bertram - the gay one (located at the docks at daytime)2) Frederick Bertram - the straight one (located in the tavern at nighttime)First talking to either the straight or gay Bertram makes the other one disappear.Also, straight Frederick Bertram has better stats.
>>3699148More bi-erasure from a homosexual.
>>3699148Based gay pirate fact checker
>>3699175heh, more like fag checker
>>3699037>What needs to be discussed? 3.5 builds? Boring. Why not? The game is still alive thanks to modders & community.Temple+ is still updating the game a few times per year. Many new base and prestige classes (Arcane Trickster, Unseen Seer, etc), races, tons of feats and house rules customization controls were added.Another massive thing that came out recently is Paladin's Cove mod. Completely a new campaign on ToEE engine, comparable with ToEE in terms of its size. Though it's not finished yet, the mod in its current state already gathered a lot of positive feedback in the community.
