I look up guides for how to get the outcome I want even on a first playthrough

Since the last thread reached bump limit I'll repeat the question here:
Rank all swtor storylines and give a qrd on them.

>>527693508
>>527692872

>>527693284 (OP)
I savescum extremely often
I look up guides to figure out certain secrets
I metafag more than roleplay so my NG character is going to do the most abhorrent thing if it means I can get a cool item from it

I romanced Yrlikek and liked it
I've also think she's really cute when she's suffering, is that a sin?
I some cases I cheat in games to have more fun. For example I've spawned blasters in KotOR 2, for the gunslinger jedi playthrough
That's it, I think

Do you guys think there is a chance for new Star Wars CRPG?

Possible. Everybody wants to make their own bg3. Wouldn't be surprised if retards at shitsney decide to dust of the ol' reliable franchise

>>527693995
>Do you guys think there is a chance for new Star Wars CRPG?
Probably, will it be good? Ehhh, it’ll turn out passable at best.
Any attempted remakes or continuations of KOTOR have a 99.9% chance to fucking suck.

Woljif continues to be literally always correct in these meetings

How much longer until solasta 2?

>>527693508
I played a bit of Smuggler and Inquisitor and thought they were both neat.

Very different vibes ofcourse.

I got about 10 hours in on each at around launch and really should go back.

They haven't made the game cancer right?
I can just sort of play it as a single player game with randoms running around in the background? Just living my own little life in a galaxy far, far away?

Which storyline has the best waifu's?

>>527694729

The difference is that you aren’t currently jacking off to the title of this thread, trannybro.

>>527695139
I should rephrase, (>>527694915)
who are the best waifu's in each story?

The best storylines are warrior, inquisitor, consular, and knight.

Imo the worst story is trooper and hunter, for these reasons:

The best waifu is Lana, for this reason:

>Bounty Hunter

>Inquisitor
All your choices are trash

>>527693508
I personally thought Sith Warrior was lame despite the praise it gets. That said, if you gravitated towards BH for your first go, the same thing but with force flavoring might be up your alley. Mission Vao 2.0 as a companion can be neat as well.
I found Sith Inquisitor a far more satisfying rise to power, especially since you're right in the dirt at the start. Imperial Agent is also interesting in that you're playing a spook in Star Wars while tiptoeing around manchildren aristocrats who run your organization.

Trooper wasn't particularly memorable and I thought it was hamstrung by the one-companion limit. Consular is essentially Jedi Jesus. Jedi Knight fits the post-vanilla stories the best IMO, and while I like smuggler, it has a very certain type of humor that would probably get dismissed as reddit pretty easily.

going from top to bottom
>IA
kino with the most reactivity that mirrors what you expect from a SP game, decent companions with Kaliyo being best girl and chapter 1-3 are all consistently great
>SW
main character of the Empire side, also have the best antagonist of all the classes (Darth Baras) and best romance Vette my love
>BH
I am surprised that I actually liked this because I think Mandalorians are cringe in general, but chapter 1 revolving around a Great Hunt and beating a nepobaby is satisfying while chapter 2-3 focusing on you getting marked for death by the whole Republic is actually kind of great. Also telling Mando to fuck off when he wants you to become a Mandalorian is really funny, game doesn't really expects that from the players though so you still have MUH HONOR dialogue options after Mando event
>JC
dealing with evil space covid that only you can stop and later dealing with sith sleeper agents is honestly really great, I don't know why people hate it. Doesn't make sense if you play evil
>JK
main character of Swtor and the closest we will ever get to a sequel too Kotor 2, basically everything evolves around you and you are Vitiate's greatest foe. Doesn't make sense if you play evil
>SI
chasing ghost gets really boring and it's literally the only thing you do from chapter 1-3,but Darth Thanaton and SI having a civil war and using Empire recourses while ignoring the Galactic War is honestly really fucking funny
>Trooper and Smuggler
I literally don't remember anything from these classes
>>527695847
I'm still don't get why Disney doesn't just make Star Wars games anymore (preferably the Crpg kind), do they hate money or are they afraid that they will be more liked than current Star Wars slop?

>>527698913
They only give the license out to slop factory devs like Ubisoft.

>>527698913
>kino with the most reactivity
How much reactivity can there even be in a mmo?

I just beat Pillars of Eternity 1 + The White March. I'm currently installing Deadfire, and may even play Avowed after Deadfire, but probably I will instead swap to Rogue Trader for DLC2.

>>527700759
Who was your Watcher? What were some decisions you made?
What did you do with the souls, and did you follow a god's plan or go against them?
Did you toss anyone in the pit?
I'm trying to think of other things that get imported.
Going to stick with the same class or try something new? Even if you import you still basically create a new character with some hand-wavey explanation about souls.

How come enemy archers never target your tank in wotr?

>>527700759
>>527701086
I personally find what happens to Devil is extremely funny and it does get imported to Deadfire

>>527701124
They have some kind of model for choosing who to target, with the last step of it being the player character.
Likely the tank's AC is too high and so they're not a priority. Your tank should charge so they're right up close, either the archer will switch to a melee weapon or you'll get some AoO if they use their bow (and don't have some feat that lets them not proc AoO for it)

>>527699315
>How much reactivity can there even be in a mmo?
maybe I exaggerated a bit, but stuff like becoming Hand of Jadus have quite a lot of conversation throughout chapter 2-3 (even side quest),5 different ending,double agent imp guy dying if you fuck up in earlier quest etc

>>527693284 (OP)
>what are you classic roleplaying games sins?
I spend forever looking up builds before I start playing. Its less to look up whats meta and more trying to cure my indecisiveness. Also just checking that the skills or class I pick actually work, after starting with games like fallout 1 I'm always paranoid I'm gonna pick some noob trap skill that doesn't do anything.

I know conjuration is super busted early on in pathfinder but are any of the late game spells even particularly worth using

all these people cucking themselves out of one of the funnest parts of CRPGs, damn.
at that point just watch a Let's Play or something lmao

>>527702882
Buffs. And I like stormbolts

>>527702882
Rift of Ruin, Acid Pit, Hungry Pit.

I wanna smooch her.

>>527702990
I have never looked up a build guide, but for some Crpgs I google what items I can expect throughout the game, what perks and passives I get, what roles all the companions fill and how important tanks and healers/support are.

>>527702882
I got a lot of mileage out of tsunami spam in kingmaker.

>>527709038
I built Valerie into an Eldritch Knight, put her in a party with Octavia, Linzi, Sylvan Sorcerer MC and Tristian then opened up on the cultist encounter with four fireballs at once (through scrolls). It was so satisfying to see the explosions and charred bodies. Can't wait to do it with Tsunami.

>>527701086
>>527701212
I didn't do all the companion quests. Once I got to Twin Elms I decided to do White March and was quite tired of the game at that point. I worked with Berath because it seemed the fastest way to earn divine favor, but in doing so I decided to make my character a godtouched death head Skald Chanter in PoE2.

>>527709632
>I built Valerie into an Eldritch Knight
Why not just use Reg? He gets heavy armor proficiency, access to all the important defensive spells and can actually do damage.

>>527710112
EK is for full casters so you have the pleasure of being able to use the quickness thing for the last 20 minutes of the game.

>>527710112
I think Valerie is a bitch so I like to punish her by marching her into ambushes face first without all her heavy armor.

anyway, speaking of first runs. Underrail guy here again. This game is fucking awesome. I felt like Yakub with my Superior Intellect absolutely raping every enemy in the GMS Warehouse as if the game expected me to somehow be too weak to do it and gave me stealth options.

Is there a blind fight equivalent for archers or do they want blind fight too just for the gaze bullshit

>>527717545
improved precise shot

>>527717545
I just thought about this like a week ago, and I can't remember now. I think I remember that there is, but maybe it's a mythic?
Vaguely remember finding that there is a blind fight equivalent for archers though, for whatever that's worth.
If you're talking about Kingmaker, then Blind Fight for the gaze bullshit is indeed very helpful, necessary even.

I've only really just started Rogue Trader, and I'm having a great time. I just recruited Cassia. I'm very confused about why a frail girl with no combat experience becomes a party member and doesn't just serve as the ship's navigator. Maybe I need to play further to understand. I do really like her character, though.

>>527715591
Aela the Huntress but replace Hurcine with Erastil

>>527718297
that, and also just her value as a navigator, is why I stopped taking her.
Also she got really OP and kind of made the combat boring

>>527718297
>experience becomes a party member and doesn't just serve as the ship's navigator. Maybe I need to play further to understand. I do really like her character, though.
crpg logic, In actual tabletop players could spend all their time on their bridge and just hire mercs or other dudes to do the dangerous shit for them. The RT in game going on dangerous missions with just 5 dudes is laughable. also yeah I liked cassia too, she's a sweet girl and she has cute interactions with idira and abelard. for me, those 3 as my ride or die, because they actually work on the ship and aren't just freeloading like everyone else is, they are my loyal crew compared to the glowie sent to spy on me, gypsie smuggler, the cogboy that is only loyal to the omnissiah and calling dibs on necron tech, ect. I guess you can add the new dlc girl to the former group because the assassin cult is part of the ship, but I haven't played her dlc yet so we'll see if I like her.

I can't hit this stupid thing

>>527717838
>If you're talking about Kingmaker, then Blind Fight for the gaze bullshit is indeed very helpful, necessary even.
Just cast freedom of movement.

>>527718297
Cassia is still a very powerful psyker (of sorts...) and the Navigator is so important that if she wants to accompany the LC off the ship (because life in her luxurious quarters is boring or whatever), the LC is compelled to listen to her. In fact in-universe the totem pole of "most influential people on the ship" is Navigator > Enginseer Prime > Rogue Trader > everyone else.

>>527693508
Only Vanilla storylines without accounting how they act in the expansions. I played them all when it turned free.

>Agent
The best. Everything feels tense, Act 1 boss makes climax bosses of other acts feel irrelevant, you have good authority for a non sith to flex or act subservient. The only weakness is the companion group, I guess? It's not bad, but the 3 below were better.
>Smuggler
What you want a scumbag with a heart of gold or opportunistic slimeball to be. Shoot first, sleep around, give as few fucks as possible or throw a spanner everywhere. Interesting cast to drag around too. Good antagonist to start with too.
>Sith Warrior
While people overrate light warrior, the option existing is good. The varied responses to you being the absolute sith monster or a subversion are fun. Same for how you can affect companions ( Jaessa, collar Twillek). You are involved in the highest level of /conflict in a good way. Baras is good foil.
>Sith Inquisitor
Being a former slave and amassing power is an interesting idea. Shooting lightning is great. Still, half the time it feels like you are a bit less awesome than Sith Warrior in whatever you do. The climax is more cathartic in a way. Slightly weaker cast, a more nuanced 'turn a jedi apprentice away from light side'.
>Jedi Warrior
What you expect a heroic jedi to be. Come in, be awesome, deal with sith, save the day. A bit below cause dark side warrior is not that interesting. Cast is good enough
>Bounty Hunter
A weaker version for smuggler. You lack the suave/tricky aspects, it feels half the tiem you should not be involved in shit that is going on, and after Taro Blood, it feels like you lack a strong driving force for your actions. Mako is cute, at least and solving everything with guns in the world of Sith/Jedi is fun.
>Trooper
I had high hopes for this, but excluding a couple standout moments, it feels less like a special group and more like grunts who survive. Weak cast of companions
>Jedi Consular
Yawn.

>>527721280
I bet you see that 'Touch AC: 19' and kicking yourself.
But a level 12 party or so should still be able to get through

why are you weg heads discussing mmos now? how much lower can you go with your garbage posts? discussing gacha then just posting about your morning shits then dining on them?

>>527693508
Only rating what I've played:
>Jedi Knight
Generic but enjoyable enough. It's called KOTOR 3 and you can tell why.
>Jedi Consular
Gets shit on but I enjoy the low stakes Jedi story of a Jedi going around doing good and not saving the galaxy.
>Sith Warrior
Good fun and a great frenemy villain. I do think it's overhyped though it's still enjoyable
>Sith Inquistor
My favourite. Pure ridiculous over the top dramatic Sith edgelord. Zap everyone and everything and has a good rags to riches story.
>Smuggler
Budget Han Solo but there's a likeable set of characters in it and after playing lots of force based classes I'm enjoying the smaller stakes.
>Bounty Hunter
Still playing this but similar to Smuggler it's enjoyable in it's own way.

Just have Imperial Agent and Trooper left after this and then I'll play through the other expansions and see how shit the game gets.

>>527693995
>Do you guys think there is a chance for new Star Wars CRPG?
I hope so but maybe picrel is them testing the waters as it's the closest we'll get. We're getting an isometric turn based tactics game that has story elements. Hopefully it does well.

I’d like a NotStarWars ripoff CRPG more then a NuStarWars CRPG.

>>527728910
You left the worst and best for last.
I actually enjoyed the expansions on a JK until the end of the eternal throne story where they just gave up on the whole thing.

>>527729290
Yeah I have left IA for last as I've heard it's the best and I have been playing the Sith/Republic version of each character alongside each other so I'll rush through trooper because I've heard it's shit too.
>eternal throne story
I've only seen trailers for it but nothing about that feels like Star Wars to me. IDK how to describe it but it just feels off and weird like someone put their own sci fi story in game and just put a Star Wars filter over it.

>>527697649
Seems appropriate. Seelah usually does end up wielding Yaniel's sword.

Does arcane strike scale with divine caster levels? I was thinking of giving sosiel a dragonic hier scion dip for some martial proficiencies.

>>527731519
bro, it's not divine strike

>>527731557
It says caster levels in the description it doesn't specify which kind.

>>527731645
Caster levels used for spells are tied to their origin class in general (not counting prestige and such).

>>527716335
You'll disappoint Zacharius. A lich isn't supposed to coom.

>>527731791
arcane strike is a feat that requires generic arcane spellcasting. While there are many ways to cheese that shit on TT, in the crpg you can only get it through dragonheir scion or by having actual class levels in arcane spellcaster classes.

>>527702882
If you have the DLC, breath of nothingness is one of the most busted spells in the game.

Very little gear variety too, especially early game. Wrath expanded upon it but it wasn't until RT that they actually started giving you a lot of gear variety.

Seelah has so much alcoholic mommy energy I should have been able to fuck her.

Which game has done this?

Anybody here playing tactical D&D mods? It's really the ultimate challenge in the D&D realm. There is nothing else out there. No other game, definitely not the newest release, and no other Baldurs Gate 2 mod either. SCS simply doesn't cut it if you are looking for a challenge.
I uploaded a few videos here if anybody wants to have a taste, the mod is called Improved Anvil:

wrong he actually said poe 2 wouldnt have bombed if he had the same budget as baldurs gate 3

Anybody here playing tactical D&D mods? It's really the ultimate challenge in the D&D realm. There is nothing else out there. No other game, definitely not the newest release, and no other Baldurs Gate 2 mod either. SCS simply doesn't cut it if you are looking for a challenge.
I uploaded a few videos here if anybody wants to have a taste, the mod is called Improved Anvil:

https://odysee.com/@Githzerai:e/Ancient-Lich:d

https://odysee.com/@Githzerai:e/Troll-Mound:d

https://odysee.com/@Githzerai:e/Guarded-Compound:4

https://odysee.com/@Githzerai:e/Kangaxx:a

What about obsidian causes anon to actually seethe like this

>>527741209
Reading the autistic meltdowns the creators of that mod have when people actually manage to finish it is always a lot more fun than simply playing it.

>>527741209
I'll bite, because I was thinking about replaying BG1 and 2 during my summer leave anyway.
What does it to and how compatible it is with other mods? I use A LOT of companion/quest mods, mind you.

>>527741209
You know if you're going to spam an ad here you'd be better off at least making it look like real organic discussion.

>>527738965

>>527741387
Improved Anvil is a difficulty mod. It replaces certain encounters with far more challenging ones. It primarily achieves this by giving enemies coded immunities which they don't have in the base game, as well as modifying their scripts so that they can use abilities which aren't typically found in their kits. Many enemies now have the ability to cast spells from both the arcane and divine tables which they wouldn't typically have access to.

It's explicitly not meant to be "fair" but purely challenging. Many CC abilities are far less useful, for example, because enemies are completely immune to them. For this reason, it's very important when playing Improved Anvil to bring a roster of highly capable martials in order to deal physical damage very quickly during the periods where enemies are vulnerable.

Further, certain spells and abilities which were considered overpowered by the mod author have been nerfed, restricted, our outright removed. This includes spells like Skull Trap, Chain Contingency and Time Stop.

Most experienced veterans of Improved Anvil claim that they best edition was IA v5, with IA v6 being a significant step down in quality, and IA v7 (actually a fork of IA v6 updated by a different mod author) being a marginal improvement over IA v6. If the player does certain things or hits certain experience threshholds in IA v6, the game will activate hidden scripts which essentially punish the player with substantially nastier fights, or removes/relocates the rewards from certain fights.

It's obviously a highly controversial mod.

Also, the mod author is insane. He's a lot of fun to piss off on SP though.

>the closest thing we get to a waterdeep game is descent to Undermountain

>>527742210
Hey, Eye of the Beholder 1 takes place there too.
Dohoho

>>527741387
>>527742023
Oh, and it isn't very compatible with anything except a few options from Tweaks Anthology and perhaps some character mods. SCS, IWDification, and basically anything that alters HLA tables, experience tables or spell tables doesn't play nicely with IA at all. That said, where there's a will there's a way, and I'm sure if you wanted to frankenstein some horrific abomination together and completely alter the experience you'd be able to with enough effort.

For difficulty mods, consider Sword Coast Strategems (SCS) or Tactics Remix EE as an alternative. Neither of them are as insane as IA, but they also play fairer (in the case of SCS) or are at least more thematic and goofy (Tactics).

>>527741828
Skill issue.

The only time I actually gave a fuck about video game sex scenes was in mass effect on release when I was 13 and horny.
I like romance sometimes but I don't need to see two models clip their polygons into each other.
I hate how devs are probably going to put more emphasis on that cringy shit now that bg3 was a success.

It's kinda retarded that waterdeep has 20 different ancient underground cities that just happen to be connected to it's gaint sewer system.

>>527742210
Waterdeep is a stupid place anyway.
I want FR to return to Cormyr/Dalelands instead of glazing the Sword Coast all the time.
And it's so ironic that the only reason BG1 took place on the Sword Coast was that Bioware got permission from TSR to place the game there, because it was some bumfuck nowhere region that nobody cared about.

>>527742408
The thing I hate is how all the discourse becomes about who you can romance, fuck etc. Very little discussion of the story or gameplay mechanics. It's just OMG I LOVE MY E-GIRLFRIEND/BOYFRIEND. Happened with Veilguard before the disastrous launch where characters were marketed on how you could romance them.

>>527742210
Whats so special about waterdeep? Doesn't seem that cool.

>>527742984
Khelben Blackstaff, Undermountain and the Eilistraeean Promenade. It's a fun place for an adventure
And 5e naturally made it very gay.

>>527742587
People discuss lots of other things, but in the long run horniness is going to carry engagement

Here's to hoping we'll get some horny shit in the upcoming Expanse cRPG.
They are using that UE5 for a reason.

What class should I play in Tyranny for my first playthrough? I've heard mages are good but I kinda want to play a martial just for comparison

>>527744359
Mages are the best because the spellcrafting system is so good. Lots of ways to play the game. That said, go with 2h like greatsword and a bow as an off weapon but just play mage.

>>527744486
Does your background matter or should I just pick what I think sounds cool?

how fuckable is your /crpg/ waifu?

>>527742587
Sex sells. Sloppy sex is bad, but it's better than nothing.

On the other hand, making good games is hard. Sloppy games are arguably worse than no game at all.

The solution? Fill your slopshit game with slopshit sex. Coomers love it! Don't ever reflect on the fact that you're essentially pedaling dopamine hits to a mass of anxiety ridden introverted shut-ins the facsimile of love and intimacy -- just sell them porn and call it "romance".

Anyway, hope that clears things up. Gotta run now, I'm late for my AIPAC meeting.

>>527744570
Pick something that works best for your stats if you want to min max but RP wise, pick what you like. What is more important is your choices at the beginning in the introduction as it sets up a lot of variables in your game.

>>527744632
Very.

>>527744709
Ok, thanks anon.

>>527697776
You nailed it, the players can see whether the developers are fucking around or not very clearly in crpg genre. Think about Kibellah romance, you can never reach her true ending if you fuck up the first flag with little bit jestering and casual answer when you have to score 3 minimum out of 4, the 2nd and 4th flags are straightfoward but the 3rd one is some blunt bullshit. Convoluted, strict flags practically force the players to rely on some guide. If the developers want the players maximize its positive experience and feeling they'd better make it simple and straightfoward so that people don't need a guide. That's how Disco Elysium is.

>>527741462
There is no ad, just a few videos. It's ok to be butthurt though.

>>527741387
It's not really compatible with other mods, if you like banter and romance then tactical and difficulty mods are likely not for you. Here you reload often and are pretty much forced to learn the combat system and ruleset in detail otherwise you will not get past Chapter 3.

>>527742023
The quality is just as high, but they made it easier in order to appeal to a broader audience I guess, which is a mistake in my opinion. Some overpowered items were introduced and certain encounters were toned down for v7, all those and many others will be fixed by me though.

Just finished Wotr's A dance of masks. it wasn't very good
especially the arena part. it really came out of the blue

>>527751373
>it wasn't very good
Fanservice rarely is

>>527751373
Overall, it was just ok.
My trickster conjuring a mythic manual for Razmir and Woljif asking for an advance for the next volume made me laugh, so I will give them that

I'm realizing that Baldurs gate 3 has a bad selection of companions. I did'nt beat it yet, but a games selection of companions is the reason why I return to games multiple times. I can't do that with Bg3, the companions are not enjoyable imo. They're all dicks. I'm playing rogue trader and I'm having more fun with it because of the cast who makes the journey worthwhile. I know it's been said many times about the Bg3 companions but it's a serious issue for me.

>>527752495
I fucking wish the BG3 companions were dicks. It was better when they actually were before they toned them all down because people couldn't handle a bunch of dicks being slightly rude before their character development kicks in.

>>527752495
I guess I like Gale and Karlach. Shadowheart with the tradwife mod is likeable as well. But other than that, they can kindly fuck off. I guess Astarion is fun at first, but his smarmy asshole shtick gets old very fast.

>>527752615
>Good companions are a guy who made a deal with the devil and a tiefling that fought in bloood war

I cannot like them enough to return, I do not hate them enough to enjoy a Durge run.

Selling out Dame whatever was the highlight of my run.

>>527749836
Exploiter Wizard is on par in most circumstances, especially if you're building for CL.

Generally though, I think it's based. Martialniggers go to the back of the line.

DOS2 is the best crpg of all time

Baldur's Gate 3 is the best crpg of all time.

>>527752615
Yeah. They toned down shadowheart because of EA, they cut alot of shit because of EA. The only good that EA did was get Larian to take their own game seriously by having the dialogue normal instead of like DOS2. They should've never changed Wyll, changed Astarion's original story, changed shadowheart, deleted one of their characters for Halsin who was incomplete, have Minsc at the ending of the game instead of the beginning, the dairy concept because of EA, changed karlach and interwoven her with their new wyll's shitty storyline.

>>527693284 (OP)

>>527753361
I'm a Cardinal 6/Jesuit 3/Mohel 1 (for the bleed DoT dip). I'm thinking of bumping my Cardinal level to 9 to unlock Papal Proclamation, but I'm not sure if it's worth the effort.

Thoughts on my build so far?

>>527753292
To be fair, the companions in EA were ASSHOLES. And while Swen promised those are only the "evil" companions, then it turned out those were 90% of companions we'll be getting. So they had to rewrite a lot of them, because otherwise you'll be having no companions for a good plsythrough.

>>527753583
Kek. This is why I can't return to the game despite never beating it. It puts me off

>>527753292
Early access is just a terrible idea for rpgs.
crpgs fans have garbage taste and will turn any game into slop with enough complaining.

To this day I don't know what were they thinking with Halsin. We don't need ANOTHER good-aligned druid when we already have Jaheira. What we needed was a good-aligned utility skill monkey, like a bard, so I don't have to drag Astarion (who hates my guts) with me everytime I want to open the door.

>>527734118
I'm looking forward to this game but none of the screenshots show ship modification or space combat. Not even dialog. It's all third person shooter screenshots. Guessing it'll be Mass Effect, minus most of the dialog.

>>527734118
What are the chances it drops sooner rather than later? I want to play it this year.:(

>>527753080
As far as Frogturd diminished /crpg/'s caster anons' reputation, he was right on one thing - you need initiative or you're getting fucked in the ass.
Starting Act 1 you'll fight Minago + 3 Vrocks and if you're going 1st - you just weird Minago and skip the fight completely.
Every "fight after cutscene" may be annoying like this.
Brown-Fur Transmuter gets gorillion of Dex via Fire body(gives +10 Dex at level20 which is higher than any belt in the game) so you can survive first rounds but you still want Dex anyway. You don't need Headsets + 8 and belts +8 with him so you can equip 2 items that land +4 initiative each instead so its kinda compensates but you will be lacking Loremaster's spells and your metamagic is fucked.
>>527753361
This but unironically

My two issues with Baldurs gate 3 is-
>What this game misses the most is tabletop camaraderie—even the ersatz version you get from a good computer RPG. Even if lawful good and chaotic neutral characters butt heads on the other side of a DM's screen, an adventuring party should feel as though it has real bonds and a unified purpose.

>Normally, the first couple of levels of a D&D game that begin with level-one characters have you taking on rats in a sewer or maybe a few particularly unathletic wolves. Baldur's Gate 3 decides instead to put you on an Illithid Nautiloid, surrounded by mind flayers and intellect devourers, in the midst of a three-way fight between the Illithids (mind flayers), red dragon-riding Githyanki, and the occasional cambion.
>>527754265
Definitely not this year friend. In 2026 for sure.

>>527734118
>Game is already bringing in mass effect's mentally ill fanbase on twitter by them asking for pronouns in the character creation

>>527753989
I have no idea how you'd even do expanse ship combat. It'd probably have to be more long distance strategy game stuff.
If you do happen to get close enough that you're not just sitting stationary and spamming missiles your ship is going to end up being swiss cheese if you happen to survive.

>>527754682
One of the problems BG3 has is that every companion is simultaniously a main character, because origins and multiplayer. So the story feels very impersonal, because we end up in a situation where every companion is fighting the MC for importance.

>>527753867
didn't happen with owlchud, it's just whether the developers have confidence in their characters or not. larian clearly did not.

>>527754682
>no scene where we actually see the group hang out together around the campfire and get drunk
>no hanging out together during the party
>everyone just eternally stands alone

I made Argenta suicidal and now I feel demoalized

>>527754794
expanse was always woke, just not in a particularly obnoxious way. pronoun selection is hardly out of form for the franchise.

>>527751373
>especially the arena part. it really came out of the blue
That's because the original idea for the DLC was about building your own arenas for you to fight bizarre monsters. I think they just wanted to use those assets for something.

>>527755694
One thing about the expanse that I'll stand behind is that it's always been a very diverse book/show. Looking at the roster of companions owlcat is nailing that aspect so far.

>>527753292
>changed Astarion's original story
What was gis original story?

>>527753292
I honestly don't mind the changes except removing a lot of the edges from the companions, Shadowheart being a literal Shar follower and even "chosen" of her should be a massive issue for everyone in the camp but nobody cares
>>527755623
in a better world, making her depressed would prime her for chaos worship

>>527755623
thats what you get

>>527756386
>Shadowheart being a literal Shar follower and even "chosen" of her should be a massive issue for everyone in the camp but nobody cares
For all this touted "reactivity", the reactivity is lacking when it comes to companions. My PC is a paladin. Paladin of Kelemvor, no less. Astarion should be dead the second I lay my eyes on him, otherwise I am breaking my oath by letting him live. Same with Shadowheart. I have a Sharran in the party and my Vengeance paladin has nothing to say about it outside of being mildly annoyed.
I am just headcanoning it as my PC seeing Shart's and Astarion's "inner goodness" or some shit and that's the only reason he hasn't smitten them yet.

>>527755462

>ship modification
They've stated this will be very limited, so presumably some cosmetic stuff here and there.
>space combat
They've confirmed that there will be no space combat, only cutscenes.

What do you mean? The dialogue will be like in their previous games.

The game is in pre-alpha, it's probably at least 2+ years away.

From what I've seen tho from when I played it is the most schizophrenic class. Which is fitting I suppose.

What I mean tho is that I couldn't really play a sort of grim pragmatist which is my favorite sort of sith.

Argentasisters how can you cope.

Couple months ago I played through PoE1 for the first time, followed by a replay of Deadfire, which I had played a few years ago. Didn't play the DLCs as I don't own them.
Visually beautiful games, and the setting is interesting, but for PoE1 it felt like Obsidian only really had the energy to make three good/interesting companions (Aloth, Edér, and Durance) while making the rest meh or forgettable. Kana Rua, Pallegina, and Sagani were extremely dull characters without anything interesting going on. The Grieving Mother was at least somewhat interesting as a concept, but lacked charisma/personality. Didn't use Hiravias enough to form an opinion. At least the overall writing was generally solid and interesting. I didn't exactly enjoy the combat, so the writing and presentation was basically why I finished the game.

I was surprised at how much worse the companions were in Deadfire than I remembered, though I guess a part of it has to do with knowing how Aloth and Edér used to be and realising that three of the seven potential companions are just companions from the first game. Out of the four original ones, I found only Serafen and Maia Rua to be interesting. I guess the most interesting thing about Kana Rua ended up being his sister.
My main problem with Deadfire ended up being the writing, which was incredibly lackluster in the sense that it could range from pretty good to "American sitcom with a laugh track every 5 seconds" on a whim. The most atrocious one I came across was when Maia wants to talk to you about the first time she killed a man and your dialogue options are:
>I don't care
>Oh, I have to hear this!
Fuck me, this is supposed to be a serious talk, why can I only initiate it by speaking like a teenage girl ready to gossip about boys? Worst part is that this sort of whiplash happened often enough to be noticeable.

>>527767741
>once any hit from a burst attack is blocked, the remaining hits are negated automatically. A blocked attack can also never overpenetrate!
This is such a weird way to balance it lol. They knew burst was overpowered so having a blocking unit nearly makes them neutered

>>527768129
You're not wrong about Durance, Eder and Aloth being the big three but I feel like that happens all the time when you have a large cast. Some are just more important. With Deadfire, I think the game going fully voiced cut back a lot of their writing so dialogue was shorter and that's why it may feel worse. The DLCs for both games however introduce some of the most interesting companions.

since expanse is apparently a crpg now, i guess we can talk about this too

>>527768727
>i guess we can talk about this too
people talk about whatever they want in here. It's basically a rpg overspill for games too small to have their own general

I'm still hoping we get some origin/homeworld buffs with the DLC. I really want to play a Commissar for the interactions but comparing it to everything else it sucks so bad.

>>527768727
but mass effect is bioshit's work though. fine. it might be good since the mass effect team was cringing at what the veilguard team had done and reworked it best they could

>>527769226
it's telling that the best parts of veilguard were created by the mass effect team

All this talk about swtor made me want to play it again, since i've only finished bounty hunter back in the day.

I'm glad they're adding shields to this because as a strict melee warrior/arch militant there's little to do with guns

>>527767741
Just don't shoot shielded enemies with a burst attack. Also apparently Xenos don't even use shields, so Argenta is just as good in Comorragh as before.

>>527769745

>>527769859
It's hilarious how the smuggler lets you fuck literally every woman and Corso is such a white knight the entire time defending their honour if you insult them

For science!

/crpgg/, introduce me.

>>527772153
Still kinda mad you don't actually fuck her for science. That would've been so funny haha

>>527772181
I liked RT's companions so much better than fucking KM's at least.

>>527772362
I don't think that's a rare opinion to have, the companions in Kingmaker were both pretty uninteresting and usually built like shit

>>527772343
You stood there without your underwear and were hoping, though.

>>527766880
>Shield Mastery allows the shield to only occupy a slot in a single weapon set.
Wait, that means, you normally have to switch to the shield and end your turn without having a weapon?

>>527772640
WotR's didn't do much for me either

>>527771367
*dainty hoof

>>527772640

>>527772640
While RT crew is my favorite overall, I liked at least half the cast of KM and WotR. I disliked a couple and the rest was just...there.

But even some characters I disliked were involved in good banter.

>>527772796
You can see it in one of the images shield takes up both weapon loadout offhand slots, shield mastery is needed to let you have a two handed weapon in the backup.

>>527773038
I can't have her in real life

>>527772640
>>527772837
They're getting better at making companions with each game they release. I have complete faith in the dark heresy companions so far, I like how diverse they are.

>>>527768129
Where there is a tool, there will always be those who make use of it. In Lex Imperialis, allies and enemies will also take advantage of shields, requiring new tactics in order to deal with the additional protection they provide.

>Some existing talents such as Take Aim! or Deadeye Shot have been updated with additional effects to reduce block, and multiple new items across the game have been added to interact with these new mechanics.

I wonder if they addded shield wielding humans acrros acts 1, 2 and 4 or just for Lex imperialis content.

>>527772640
I think overall I still might prefer the kingmaker party to the wotr one. A lot of them you could label as more basic, but I kinda find that charming.

>>527773038
Whore

the whole story is pretty low stake even though you are technically fighting Sith Emperors and succeeding in stopping his master plan with all the different double agents he has placed in the Republic. JK actually gets to confront him while JC doesn't
>>527772362
>>527773258
I think what helps with RT and 40K in general, is that you are allowed to write companions that just fucking hate each other and they never really pretend that they will have any relationship before all this is over.
Idira have a decent friendship arc with Argenta though and it feels earned

I'm glad they decided to give each class it's own storyline appropriate to it. Wish more rpg's did this.

Heinrix just might be my second favorite romanceable companion I've had to experience since Zevran from Orgins. I just got done with the moment after Kiava Gamma, but I like it so far. No spoilers anons please.

fag

>>527783730
>>527783920
The one thing that holds Zevran up is because since I was young and dumb, I sacrificed my grey warden so his ending played out like this:
>Zevran lingered in Denerim for a time, mourning the loss of his love and working for the Fereldan throne as a distraction. Eventually the Crows came after him once again and he elected to take the fight to their doorstep, returning to Antiva. After four master assassins disappeared, the Crows readmitted Zevran--as their leader. He maintained a distance from his former comrades even then, and despite frequent offers of new bedmates, never loved again.

We'll see how Heinrix plays out, but! I'm liking it.
>>527784424
You should know by now women post here anon.

>>527784591
Loyal. I never did Zev's romance fully but I did like him.

About to do the tavern defence for the second time in my life on WotR.

First time was on release and it was like an hour long slog on TB.

The next couple runs I always hit the grey garrison early. Since it's been like a year + since I last played I decided to do it again this run. Still had to do 3 fuck off sleeps in a row since I'm just that efficient at doing kenabras on anything core or below.

I might actually try doing RTwP for this fight since Itrabeth might actually fucking help me then.

After the tavern I should be able to fight the Nabasu secret boss right? Wondering if it's worth it

i remember lelianna's sacrificed ending being pretty sad. all of this bioware talk is reminding me of how their sequels ruined their past characters.

>>527785295
It's more xp and one extra item to sell

>>527784591
>>527784881
I remember in DA2 if you import a save where Zevran was romanced and the Warden died he would get some special dialogue with Isabella

>Zevran leaves
>Isabella asks, "Wait, no sex?"
>Zevran responds, "forgive me, but I am still in mourning".

And this takes place in Act 2 which is like a few years after DAO . Homie is loyal as fuck

How useful is Ulbrig? Should I spec him fill 20 in shifter?

Also, does anyone use the toy box feature to hear all the party banter in dialogue options? I was gonna use it but hene I was speedrunnkg. The Lord of Nothing DLC it caused some scenes to bug out

>>527786639
He is mainly a glass cannon that can teleport.
Early on, his grappling can simply things and his Wis to AC makes him a bit more durable.
Need for dips is minimal.
The toybox option just needs disabling every now and then

I love these two little fuckers like you wouldnt believe

Is NWN 2 worth a replay?
I remember liking it very much back when it first came out, but that's probably because I hated the NWN 1 campaign with a burning passion and by comparison everything is better than NWN 1 OC.

>>527786639
I think he's useful but very fragile. His grapple is pretty good and can completely trivialize some nasty encounters, like that mage ghoul fight in the dlc area. Overall I like using him

>>527787816

>>527787816
Does Jimmy have rejection dialogue for Male RTs. Characters usually do if not the right preference.

Why didn't jimmy just use biomancy to create himself a gf out of his rib or something, if he wanted one so much? That's a plothole

>>527788958
He's not that desperate for coochie

>>527783407
I forgot to do homeboys quest in my playthrough and he up and vanished in the ending, I felt really bad after that

>>527788958
Jimmy is a secret incel

>>527788840
I don't think so. I did a male playthrough and i there wasn't even an option to flirt with him. Hm... though technically the romance trigger is the proposition to talk privately. I don't remember if that option was there either

>>527789139
He has plenty of failstate endings depending on how exactly you've fucked up

>>527789428
Lame

>>527789604
>Gets randomly assassinated in one through no direct fault of yours
Cool

>>527786639
He's a Martial character with good mobility, better raw stats and a grapple. He's pretty good, but natural weapons are all inherently shit because they all have a 20/x2 crit profile. Still, he's pretty good at getting the drop on the enemies' backline and take care of archers and casters.

Are we actually only getting one archetype in lex imperialis?

>>527786490
He's my glowie. I'm gonna spoil and cherish him

>>527790913
I don't think that's a failstate. Just one of the outcomes

>heinrix instantly folds for pussy and plays chess with femoids

I want to like him, but I can never trust him because my character doesn't have a vagina

>>527791758
Yes, it's been known from the start

>>527792505
He's very forward with you and looks out for you. That's more than you can ask from most glowies

>>for women he'll warn them because he's a fucking SIMP
Only if the romance flags are active. And what actual danger did you think you were in? The only thing that got wounded was your pride because you've been reminded that you're not the biggest fish in the pond. Boohoo, cry about it. I'm not gonna list all the times he makes an effort to defend you, since it's been done many times already

>>527793151
>>527795148
no because Soldier can't use Executioner, in order to get executioner you need to be a Warrior, an Operative or a Bladedancer

>>527796781
If you do it before tavern defense, you are free.

Tavern defense is like 72 hours. Not sure if finshing Tower of Estrod also delays it on top of taking out some enemies who show up.

Generally, the trick is doing the majority of fights and triggers for further quests in Market square with minimal resting. You can leave a few things to do when you go do Daeran mansion, Horgus etc for the return trip

>>527797193
Thanks, I think I'm good then

>>527797657
>I really don't want to be here
>Life is a fuck
>One of them smells weird and I don't know who

>>527797193
Is the tavern defense time locked or long rest locked? Cause I feel like it's long rest locked.

Anyway it's been pretty theorized that doing tower of Estrod give another day/long rest.

I fucked up the Ramien/Hulrun dilemma. Usually I save Ramien and his students but take Hulrun's inquisitors into the assault. Now I have these stupid ass desnan priests instead of the GOATed inquisitors in arguably one of the toughest fights at the grey garrison

>>527797843
With 1 hour haste on, I usually send Seelah who has her horse to smite the caster, and it's pretty much done.

What type of builds are fun but also don't step on a companions toes?

Like Jae has custom feats to just be a better dual pistol xeno tech fighter than the RT

>>527798019
Pyromancer, flamethrower focused soldier or full support officer

>>527798019
>Like Jae has custom feats to just be a better dual pistol xeno tech fighter than the RT
She doesn;t do shit for damage, she just gets more shots in a way officer cannot.
She is good for debuffs.
You can make a better dual wielder with soldier start.

And whatever you do, you can spec a companion differently.
AM bolter? Argenta gets teh flame thrower.
Melee psyker? Heinrix stays mostly assassin and only buffs, does not pick biomancy.

Even for things like Sniper focus, Yrliet can go the second tier archetype you do not pick.
Even Ulfar can get a different priority in weapons and how much he uses melee and ranged.

The most locked on companion is Marazhai, but he is the worst so who cares

Is there any game that has managed to make OOC dice rolls feel as satisfying as BG3? I recently realized that's a big source of enjoyment for me.

>Just reveal to the first literally who mercenary you've met that you've stolen an identity and fortune of a different guy

I'm am sure there are better candidates for that. What an idiot

>>527798805
You have very very few brain cells if you think jae can not outdamage anyone in your group. Once again I implore you to never give builds advice ever again

>>527799068
Iirc he wasn't in good terms with Irabeth and her wife and letting Hulrun know would likely just make him kill Camellia on the spot.

>>527798508
>DE
Very true. Already played it twice but kinda forgot about it when I posted my question. Probably because I'm looking for a game that has both combat and good OOC rolls.

>>527799252
DE does it better because I dont mind failing rolls in that game, failing in bg3 is always you dont get this or that, failing can be fun should be used more often

>>527799217
Idira with peril train? Heinrix with Pyromancy? Kibs going full retard with executioner?
Move aside, Officer with pistols and nerfed MT comes for the damage.
What do you get of pretending to be a retard on the internet?
Are (you)s that important?

>>527797843

>>527802019
Problem is they'll prioritize good characters if they can, since they can smite good. Anyway, my issue was mainly not prepping a party specifically for that encounter, I'll load up an earlier save and come back with dedicated anti gargoyle measures. It's just always funny to me how you'll have literally like 15 gargoyles on screen at the same time, it's like a swarm of flies

>>527766880
Well that's pretty cool and makes sense that everyone gets it. Just need to figure out what classes to fill my sword + board + Pet fantasy. Warrior from a subductor I suppose makes the most sense into overseer.

>>527802292
No. They prioritize the closest seen after they enter combat and then there's some chance of them changing targets if they miss certain amounts of attacks.
That said, game gives you a Neutral and an Evil Tanks in first dungeon. I never saw anyone building Seelah as Tank outside of newcuties that got tricked with her initial feats.

Kaylio is vomit inducing and would have been shot by you or your boss multiple times if she wasn't a writer's pet, but he's right about the agent story otherwise being the best. It has the most endings and the most unique content depending on your choices.

Agent is the best, followed closely by Warrior, Inquisitor, and Consular.
Knight and Smuggler are fine and comfortably in the middle. They are straightforward and classic stories.
Hunter and Trooper have too many handwaves that don't make sense so they're my least favorite.

>NOOOOOOOOOOOOO YOU VILL LISTEN TO ZE SONG AND YOU VILL BE HAPPY

>>527804460
Seelah has been on my team nearly every run. Paladins are just that good in this game between tanking, single target damage and resistances. I might try retiring her this run.

What's the fastest way to get dex to damage on camellia? I swore I got it before the grey garrison assault my previous saves. Still a great tank with wonder support skills

>>527807906
I play a paladin myself, so there is simply no place for her in my group, I do take her with me for most of kenbres though

does anyone have a TL;DR of ways to off your companions for heretic run? Is it worth keeping the dogmatic ones or wait when they leave willingly? Because I know things like Argenta getting offed by Idira, have the shadow consume Jimmy and keeping Yrliet around for act 4 when she can get sacrificed for Slaanesh blessing etc

>>527813838
>wait when they leave willingly
You get to have them fight you when you confront calcazar which is pretty cool

>>527807906

I'm level 10. None of my spells can penetrate its spell resistance.

>>527818253
Except when mounted. Sometimes using a reach weapon while riding and going for an attack has a fair chance to brick your move completely and make you skip a turn. This doesn't happen if you're using a none reach weapon.

If you want him to be ab it better at hitting, stock up Righteous power.

The correct way to build Jimmy going forwards is sword and board.

You get to kill Ulfar and all his yiffbuddies as the Kiava Gamma boss fight (instead of Uralon) for Heretic.

You can sacrifice anyone to the pit in that one system.

Tervantias gives you a mission to kill companions in cumrag for special parts for his monster, so that's just about anyone.

As for obra dinn, its harder to describe but your play as an insurance investigator who's job is to find out what happened to every crew member of the ship obra dinn. You have a watch that takes you back in time to a snapshot in time. From there you gather clues to deduce the identity and the cause of death of each crew member

>>527859518
Pyro overall.
Easier to get more people on fire which makes incinerate even stronger. And enemies on fire can be abused by other characters
I think psychic scream technically has the stronger damage formula, but Idira on the peril train does not care much about that

3.5e is a very good core system buried under a mountain of abhorrent splatbooks. It's a pity that most of its fans like it because of the bloat and not despite of it.

>>527860819
It was just the most supported of all the editions thanks to the OGL, so eventually there had to be some good shit in there.

I hate buffing
I HATE buffing
Which WOTR build lets me kill everything without buffing?

>>527860931
The OGL was part of the bloat problem. You underestimate how solidly design the system was and how innovative for its time. Most people do. Mostly because they just skimmed the PHB, never opened the DMG and went straight to building a lvl 20 character by combining classes and feats from 12 different splats.

>>527859857
Been playing Abomination Vault with some university blokes for a couple months now, it's honestly a really nice system to play, at least as a martial. Being able to swing a greataxe three times per round from level 1 makes playing a martial actually feel good instead of feeling like I'm gimping myself out of every fun part of the combat.
I'm honestly not sure why people don't like 2e (apart from the fact that many classes from 1e haven't been/won't be added to 2e). Is it because of the changes in lore and general "mood" of the setting/system?

Why doesn't Arue understand metaphors or sarcasm? It makes no sense.

>>527861196
The journalism difficulty one

>>527861290
Most of it is probably because it's a change from what they're familiar with. I had option paralysis for WOTR initially, but eventually I got used to it.

I do not like timers

Making bland slop is not growth, stop eating shit and aquire taste

>>527861674
Hating just to hate.

>>527861290
because the action economy is kinda bad, if you just want to swing the axe three times every time, thats fine, its great for that; but if you want to use your shield, thats an action, a lot of spells require two actions, you want to stand up, thats an action, you want to take that 5 foot step, thats an action

>>527860323
Finally it makes sense. I knew they couldn't have made enough money off of pozzfinder and rt to starr publishing and developping gorillion games at once. Hopefully once the sloppa money runs out they'll be able to stay afloat to continue making crpgs

>>527861357
Because she's moeblob

Does Lann get any better as the game going on as a character? He just seems so boring and lame even when compared to Wenduag's edgelord bit

>>527862035
The 'joke to cope' aspect dies down a bit, though he gets a bit more drama in his sidequests and he is a good foil for council meetings and banter with Lann.
Also gets along with Regill.
So he gets better, but nothing amazing

>>527861357
because lots of things that are obviously metaphors to a human can easily be literal for a demon

>I knew they couldn't have made enough money off of pozzfinder and rt to starr publishing and developping gorillion games at once.
that's owlcat's own doing. all Alcon is doing is investing money for their game the expanse
>Hopefully once the sloppa money runs out they'll be able to stay afloat to continue making crpgs
the expanse is being made by another team on owlcat. you're under the impression the whole studio is working on that game, that's not the case

>>527862035
Not really, no. He's just a whiny faggot through and through. It never gets better, even Wenduag gets better character development if you put some time into her.

I would imagine that the mass effect-like is their biggest project money-wise, yes. So yeah, it makes sense that they're sucking on investor's tit, not doing it themselves. Pozzo and gw probably didn't sponser the previous game much outside of provoding liscence

>I've also think she's really cute when she's suffering, is that a sin?

In terms of crpg romances I kind of agree with him but exclusively for Judy and Panam. The dudes were weak as fuck and aren't integrated into the plot at all.
It's hilarious that you can have this whole capstone to V's arc ending with both of them where you escape the city but the guys are just like lmao okay whatever bye.

I see that you are a man of integrity, just like me.

They are well written, play into the story and ending and had good VA and narrative. Especially Panam which is probably the most popular.

Because the dude romances were apparently the last minute addition. River was supposed to have a much larger role (he was supposed to save you from the scrapyard instrad of Takemura) and Takemura was supposed go be romanceable as well, but the devs didn't know how to make it work, so they just went with what we have now.

Also, there are rumors circulating that the upcoming 2.3 patch is supposed to be romance-based, so I wonder what that means.

I haven't even played that game and I believe him, at least if the standard is fully voiced acted stuff

I assumed it will be easy stuff like they added before like texts and apartment scenes.

Well, the Polish VA for Judy apparently couldn't keep her mouth shut and confirmed that they called her to the studio to record new lines. So, something is going on.

Why does she have a trans flag in her car? What does it mean to be "trans" in a society where sophisticated plastic surgery is more available than decent quality food?

>tfw the only things you know about a game are half-remembered memes

Panam doesn't have that, you're thinking of the bartender.

>>527869385
That are also wrong.

Funny that he's the strongest non-caster in the game who's also the best priest in the game
