>>528287508
The game tracks how many times you use certain spells and there is one consequence for using the bad ones. The game also tracks how you treat people and there is one consequence depending on nice/generous or mean/selfish. Otherwise it's just a nice cinematic action exploration game with a fun character building system in the form of learning new spells in class rather than just leveling up and selecting stuff. It's one of the better games in the past several years.

Will I miss anything doing int 5 run as opposed to int 7 run?

no daemonette companion, no buy DLC Owlcat

in act 2 of WotR are there demon armies and outposts you pretty much can't beat under any circumstance with the armies you have available to you at that point?

>>528288094
You need 11-12 int for all the intelligence checks and like 12 will for the lore.
Int 7 is nothing

>>528288591
Nope.

A shitload of my companions died just now during this fight. If I go back and revive them do they come back with all the items they had on them when they died? If not, then if I were to leave and then come back, would their corpses with their belongings still be intact?

>>528288002

So with the full view of the Imperium on display in RT, it's clear that no one sane would stay in it VS joining the T'au, if given the option, right?

>>528287508
Don’t listen to the other anon. It has a nicely made castle map you can do barely anything in and the entire rest of the fucking game is just bland generic open world garbage outside of the school with the same puzzles, enemies, and dungeons repeating over and over. It has a grand total of one actually good and finished quest chain.

The entire combined tau empire is smaller than the holdings of some space marine chapters and has fewer combined citizens as well. The scale is such that the tau are ultimately irrelevant.

Things also aren't perfect there. Non-tau still get worse equipment than tau and you're not going to see a human or vespid battlesuit pilot any time soon. Vespid also had their physiology manipulated to better fit inside the tau empire and there is some evidence to suggest the ethereals are not opposed to doing it again.

Additionally, the imperium was an advanced technological marvel with a high standard of living for a long time too, until they had an ai revolution that killed half of humanity when their robot servants rebelled. The tau are currently an advanced technological marvel with a high standard of living society that has robot and ai servants doing a lot of the work for them. They just haven't had their crisis event yet, they're on the same trajectory the imperium was on.

Additionally, one of the main advantages the tau had over humans is that their souls are so bland and uninteresting to demons that they have mostly gone unnoticed by chaos, but the most recent lore is that the tau have recruited enough humans and other non-tau species into their midst that they now have their own minor chaos god and they've been having to fight chaos more often, so they don't even have that plot armor anymore, which allowed them to evolve and advance to where they are now mostly unmolested while the eldar and humans bore the heaviest of chaos's meddling.

So no. The ticket to "winning" in 40k is creating some kind of barrier between the warp and realspace so chaos loses influence. Whether that requires technology or faith or what we don't know yet.

>>528290580
You aren't treated as second class citizens though, you become part of the caste system and have a role you are valued in. Even if what you're claiming is true, you are still flat out better off as a "second class citizen" in the T'au worlds than you are as a citizen in the Imperium unless you are amongst the top 1%.

>>528291052
>Smaller
Irrelevant, we're talking about quality of life here.

>Things aren't perfect there
No, but they are quantifiably and objectively better than they are in the Imperium.

>Imperium was great once, sucks now
Yeah, agreed.

>Chaos are a pain the ass
Yeah.

Not really seeing any argument you're making here about why it would be better to live in the Imperium VS live in the T'au worlds if you are an average Human.

I miss all the memes about the eldar farseer dude on janus. wish we got him instead of y*liet as a companion

How can this +1 flail be worth a thousand gold?

>>528291545
inflation. (also your party leader's charisma affects the prices of things)

>>528291540
Anything would've been better than Yrliet, easily the worst character Owlcat ever made outside of Nenio.

>>528291321
I just explained why. The tau are on the same trajectory as the imperium, so jumping ship to them doesn't make sense since they just haven't had their ai revolution that ruins everything yet. Additionally, the reason the imperium is hardline and brutal is because those are measures required against how chaos works, and I just told you how chaos is now noticing and interacting with the tau more, which means they are going to adopt those same measures soon. Just because they give you 3 square meals a day and a higher quality gun compared to some shitty hive world doesn't mean it's actually meaningfully better in the long run. The best bet for humanity is still to support the emperor as much as you can and hope he figures out a way to either strike chaos where it lives or put up a really good fence.

>>528291545
Your reputation and charisma affect prices significantly, which is why you should have an 18 Charisma CHARNAME (also affects romance availability in BG2, if your Charisma is too low you cannot activate any of the romances) and you should do all the quests that raise your reputation before buying anything major.

>>528291545
the +x weapons are all worth quite a bit in BG, its where most of your gold comes from

>>528291705
its incredible how much of an asshat she is. you can be the biggest xenos lover and help eldar every time you run into them and she'll still decide a fucking deldar is more trustworthy than you and rush you and your party into a trap that gets you stuck in cumrag. she'll say sorry to the RT but fucking refuse to explain herself to the others because "they wouldn't get it elantach" fucking bitch you got them all tortured why do you think they hate you

>>528291863
Okay so it's best to just sell it right? A +1 to a flail weapon isn't worth not having a 1000 gold at my current stage right (just outta nashkel)?
None of my (now dead) party members know how to fling around such a weapon anyway.

>>528291753
>Doesn't make sense
Yes, it does, the quality of your life improves.

>The long run
Who cares? That's something for big picture logisticians and rulers to look at, I'm asking what, if anything, would be a reason for the average Imperial citizen to prefer living in the Imperium VS living on a T'au world. Three solid square meals a day VS constant starvation is a pretty big deal, by the way, and that's just ONE of innumerable horrific things the Imperiums citizens deal with on a constant basis. If anything RT does a great job illustrating why entire worlds just flat out switch sides to the T'au when they encounter them since it is simply better for all involved to be part of the Greater Good than it is to stay in the Imperium.

>>528292230
yeah you'll find a lot
1k is already half its buy value

>>528292485
Lol okay, I'm selling it.

>>528288812
So I might as well dumb int then?

>>528292254
If you were just going to say you don't care about the reasons and stick to your assumption then there was never any point to this conversation. I told you the lore reasons why the tau are doomed and are imminently about to lose both their main advantages of why they have better quality of life that the imperium and your response was I don't care. So great, carry on.

>>528291052
>chaos god

>>528292665
What build are you doing exactly?

>>528285562 (OP)
Pentiment

>>528293080
Because you are not addressing my point. I'm well aware of the larger logistical issues the T'au empire faces, but my question was never about that. Once again, since you seem to have missed it, is there ANY reason for the AVERAGE IMPERIAL CITIZEN to not join the T'au worlds if the offer is there? His life improves significantly if he does so. All of your reasoning is based on larger picture stuff that does not relate to his immediate and actual lived existence, and you already implicitly admitted even basic stuff like having enough food to eat is immediately improved on switching sides.

>>528289962
the Tau literally cut your balls off and feed them to the Kroot
anyone sane enough to want to keep their testicles would oppose them

>>528287217
>star wars outlaws
this game made me realise that I'm now an old man with normie taste because I sort of enjoyed this. It wasn't as good as it should've been considering the nature of the criminal underworld but I found it comfy

>>528294513
I told you the reasons a person wouldn't want to do that. If your premise is that you're only talking about an ignorant person who isn't aware of the reasons he wouldn't want to do that, then you've already answered your own question. Someone who is ignorant would indeed think it's a better idea to join the tau, because he doesn't know better. We with our outside observer knowledge know it's a bad idea, but the character who doesn't know anything would be fooled into thinking it's a good idea with a few trinkets and meals.

The more a character knows about how chaos works and what the emperor does and the history of the imperium vs the history of the tau, the less likely they are to join the tau. Thankfully, there are a lot of random average joe's in the imperium who are ignorant of all those things, but are just faithful or indoctrinated enough that they refuse to join the tau for religious or indoctrination reasons. Most people are taught that xenos will try to trick you into doing their bidding and betraying your race, and in this scenario it's true, and the indoctrination against xenos is performing its intended function.

>>528295826
>A few trinkets and meals
Only people who have never gone hungry think this isn't a huge issue.

>Indoctrination keeps the plebes in line
Except that generally hasn't worked since the T'au let them keep worshipping the Emperor so they get to retain their religion and have food to eat, so yeah.

>>528295647
I mentioned it because the game gives you several quests where you have the choice to betray your mission giver or another syndicate, and there are consequences in the form of the syndicate reputations, which carry several of their consequences and bonus/malus. It's actually a rather fun game with a few cool systems in it, but it's still an ubislop game so I'm hesitant to say it's truly great.

Oh, and I loved playing sabacc. So the game has enough to say it's good imo, it just has a few of the usual ubislop pitfalls too.

Please help me out here. Am I fucked if they die in nashkel? I went to the church in nashkel village and couldn't purchase the revive option. I asked chatgpt and it said I had to 'carry' them out first.I went there again and this time all of them were gone so I reloaded and it turns out I can't carry them. WHAT THE FUCK CAN I DO? What's the point of having a mechanic to let you revive companions if having them die here makes me unable to revive them?
The character portraits are still there, just grayed out.

>>528293352
guns with crafting

>>528296680
Yeah the reputation was good though once maxed out it makes the game so easy. You can just go into wherever you want and even then it's very hard to fuck it up unless you deliberately antagonise them. Sabaac was great. I had a lot of fun with that. I also really enjoyed the system on how you unlock new abilities. Having to do missions and feats for certain things made it more fun instead of just a boring skill tree. Space combat was fun too.

>>528296762
Read the manual. Or the electric version they provide with the new versions of the game. If you still cannot understand how things work, stop playing, your IQ is too low for you to successfully navigate older games.

Wanting to fuck a xenos is heretical. The responses are correct. It doesn't matter if you try to frame it as you hating them and being mean to them by weaponizing sex, you're still supposed to just kill them normally.

This isn't even going into the fact that having elaborate fetish fantasies and getting your crew involved in them is taking steps towards slaneeshi brand chaos corruption. Having sex and having fetishes doesn't make you corrupted, but this guy seems a bit intense about it and even mentions making it into a group event, and slaanesh does start to pay attention when it becomes excessive rather than just normal sex.

>>528298137
Like the other guy said, each mythic path has an alignment set for it (mostly) and in the case of Angel, Azata, Aeon, and such, they have to be aligned so the path overrides your normal one. You can usually get around it somewhat with the scrolls of repentance or whatever it's called that set you to original alignment if I recall. I had an issue playing a Gold Dragon paladin before where GD has to be neutral good and pally has to be lawful good.

It's all starting to come together.

I bumped con to 9 last time I tried this build for last stand, fulfilling the thematic theme of the immortal Scathach, but I did fucking nothing with it. If you have to use Last Stand at all, chances are you already lost. Planning for maximum damage this time. I prefer spears over sledges because of the versatility sweep and throw spear bring.

How to fix Crusades mode in WotR
>Make away with unit limit, but impose a limit of how many units can be within one stack (master of manouver now increases this number. Another, end-game talent will increase the deployment are, allowing you to bring more troops)
This will make elite units more powerful, and allow one to wield wider variety of troops, as well as actually craft formations.
>Tone down enemy AoE. Giant demon units no longer deal AoE damage just because, or wipe your entire army with single spellcast
This will make you able to actually tie up more destructive giant demons
>Allow enemy reiforcements
Demons are supposed to be these crazy gate/portal masters. Instead of jsut facing whoever you are facing, demons will just teleport to battlefield - perhaps like Inferno gating special ability works in HoM&MV
Or perhaps make enemy armies partially wave-based, with every win spawning another encounter on top of the previous
>Tone down spell-damage AoE - and move most damage to once-per battle manouvers and traps. Fireballs should allow you to cleave 1 demon out of stack of ten, not win the battle on their own
Self-explanatory. This will also buff unit-boosting spells that are laid completly wayside by gigadeathstacks. Healing magic will already be nerfed by stack unit limit
>Make it so that you can't see who you will be facing.
Balanced by weaker enemy roaming armies that there will no longer be stacks of 459 dretches/succubi/lilitu that you have to wipe out before their turn or lose. Introduce a new type of military project that allows you to scout out demon garrisons

You know, people used to enjoy reading manuals since they contained lore for the game and gave you a good feel for how the game would work. Parsing information and understanding its application is a basic function of intelligence, as well, it should be a pleasurable process to engage in if you have even a modicum of intellect. And if you don't, you should just quit playing old CRPGs anyway, you are not going to enjoy them.

>>528303159
it would still totally happen in universe though because rogue traders be like that though. you should have been able to keep a mindbroken yrliet after chapter chapter 3 as your xenos pet, sorta like how you can keep a mindbroken ember along in wotr

>I don't think they realize Owlcat would agree with this poster.

>>528303342
I did'nt mean it literally, sorry, I'll clarify. But Owlcat is into a lot of kinky/fetish/horny/ morally questionable stuff. They do include implied rape in some books throughout Wotr. They don't shy away from these things. With a company like this, and reddit slobbering up their work I'm not understanding why most of reddit is being squeamish over some dude behaving like a dogmatic/heretic type of player

The entirety of the West is a matriarchal society, this is why raping a woman, thereby forcibly taking away her entire value and worth, since a woman has no value beyond her sexual value, is considered the greatest and most abhorrent evil possible. Torturing a thousand people to death is less wicked to people in these societies than raping a single female.

>>528303826
I see, that makes more sense for what you meant. Definitely agree that Owlcat doesn't shy away from including that stuff, even on Janus you have a whole thing about people fucking animals or servitors before you take back over. And implied rape or worse is nothing new in the games. I think most people are usually a bit more sensitive of taking the "implied" part out though, especially when it happens to a PC or similar character compared to a faceless NPC.
Though I also think that the dude got judged for being cringeworthy larping like that with barely any idea of what the dogmatic beliefs actually are too, plus reddit hivemind seeing him downvoted already so they downvote too. More of a Heretic move anyway, since Dogmatic would find fucking a xenos disgusting too.

>>528304730
Your personal chambers and ship could make a fucking deldar blush at rank 3 heresy. But rape??? After murdering and torturing everyone as you please???? How monstrous!

Well, would you look at that, all I was doing wrong was not clicking on the sprite of the person I wanted to revive. I thought I'd be able to click on the spell and get a choice for who to revive but it was the other way around. Whew, I sure wish I read all 100 pages before going in, otherwise I might not have had to use the internet.
>You know, people used to enjoy reading manuals since they contained lore for the game
If I want to know about a lore thing in the game, like with the names of the gods, creatures or where I am in the world I'll just consult the wiki, which I have done already. People read manuals back then probably because there wasn't as much information available back then online as there is now and because consulting the internet would've been less viable.
>and gave you a good feel for how the game would work.
A much faster and better idea is to just play the game while consulting third parties for things that confuses you imo. That could be a manual or the internet.
>Parsing information and understanding its application is a basic function of intelligence, as well, it should be a pleasurable process to engage in if you have even a modicum of intellect.
I can process information just fine, I simply don't want to have to read a technical book before I'm allowed to play a video game.
>And if you don't, you should just quit playing old CRPGs anyway, you are not going to enjoy them.
I'm having fun though. If I stopped the game now and forced myself to read a book before I could continue, my overall experience with baldurs gate would deteriorate greatly. I know this because I got bored trying to read it years ago when I originally wanted to play the game and then never got around to it.
Sorry for the long reply.

Does Jade Empire count as a CRPG? Either way I've been playing it for the first time, it's clunky but kind of charming in it's jank.

>>528306052
Yeah, I know it eventually got a PC release but the initial release was an XBOX exclusive in the last few months of the consoles lifespan. Bioware developers later even said that Microsoft forcing them to do that was what killed Jade Empire since their primary fanbase was on PC and they didn't have access to the game on the initial release, and by the time they did the PC port nobody cared.

>>528306278
that sucks, I was surprised it isn't talked about more because I'm enjoying myself quite a bit so far, but I am only at Tien's Landing. but that explains its rather niche fanbase

It's unironically broken and you should just cheat your way through it. By TT rules you are supposed to be immune to the confusion effect on a monster by monster basis if you pass your save (ie against three swarms if you pass against one you still have to save against the other two but you are done saving agaisnt the first one).

>>528289267
haven't read the rest of the thread and you're probably beyond this by now but within a certain amount of time their stuff should still be there. It's playing with fire though.
About resurrecting them, they always resurrect without wearing/holding anything. Typically, ideally, this is over their dead body and their stuff is just sitting there.
What I would do, and it still isn't safe I think, but I'd put all the loot into that chest in the other room while you go resurrect people. If you can't afford to resurrect everyone, consider some strength potions for the ones you can.
Admirable to not reload at this point.

Only certain containers are safe from despawning, iirc, and all things that are on the floor eventually disappear.

Is he right?

>I went to the church in nashkel village and couldn't purchase the revive option
You should be able to if you have enough money. Different people cost different amounts, based on level and I think elves cost a lot more.

>I asked chatgpt and it said I had to 'carry' them out first
Chatgpt lied to you, this makes no sense, there's no mechanic for "carrying them out".

Don't read the manual like that retard said. You probably just missed something to do with how the church raise dead works. There are icons at the bottom when you interract with temple people (purchase items, donate gold, services). Under the services one should be cures, etc and raise dead. If it's greyed out I imagine you can't afford it.
Like another anon said, CHA affects prices and so does reputation, so this could be factoring in.

All the Non-Good/Non-Law paths needed some proper fleshing out

Swarm should've kicked in during Act 4 with the party abandoning you and going back to Golarion with the Herald and Areelu/Nocticula declaring you a failed experiment until you manage to form a new body at Colyphyr.

Trickster needed to let you lean either into funny prankman or burn it all down agent of the Maelstrom

Demon needed to let you start making a name for yourself as a nascent demon lord by replacing most of the party, maybe even having act 5 start with you based out of the Ivory Sanctum and needing to retake Drezen

Devil needed some big fights against Kenabres as you are dragging everyone into your wild ride of order at all costs.

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 just realized why rtwp in other games feels much less shit than in the crapfinder series
Stats aren't niggerinflated so you don't need to megabuff leaving your spells to the "power multiplier" role, so you can use them more liberally, and they work more since again no niggerstats
Some don't even have spell slots anyway, like tyranny, so that's a non-issue
Also you're actually allowed to rest with no nigger corruption or niggercapital management to bother you

>>528334546
You control the difficulty you play on

>>528334645
No you don't, crapfinder functions on a curve of "do you have buffs? you buff and you click and that's the game" or "do you not have buffs? you have to play on piss-easy mode or do some non-descript cheese"
It doesn't work like the way you pretend it works

>>528334546
rtwp in other series is much worse than crapfinder because its even more bloated with bog standard combat slop go play through chapter 1 of nwn1 again. it's hard to think of a rpg more boring and monotonous.

>>528341234
Monk is because it gives you a huge chunk of ac and easier access to crane style. You can survive without it. Especially with mods.

Monk is a very schizo class, it needs strength to attack, needs dex to defend, needs con for HP (but to be fair everyone does), needs wis for class ability and more AC since it can't wear armor, the only stats you can "safely" dump are int and cha. It can't use normal weapons because of unarmed strike, even when it has the biggest unarmed strike die you are usually outperformed by tanky mcnigger swinging his greatsword. You have huge mobility but flurry only works when you're standing still. You have one-shot abilities which scale off your SECONDARY stat and need a successful melee attack (not even a melee touch attack!) to deliver and still allow a save.

Meanwhile John Pathfinder fires his bow five times and fools drop like flies.

>>528343589
I thought narnia and twilight were the mormon fantasy games.

>>528350180

>>528350180
Proof?

Individual imitative or side initiative. Which is better?

>>528351668
depends
does your game have a lot of synergies between different characters' abilities?

Is pajama tanking just as broken in actual pathfinder?

>>528352104

>>528342454
>owlcrappe gif enemy 50k AC bab
>foulcrap gib playr bonus stackan to embig AC
>why broken thingy good?
I hope my breakdown was enough. As to why they're kind of.. eh whatever on tabletop, they're like a fighter but with some gimmicks. Not as hitty and certainly not as skilly or casty as other classes, a sort of self-sufficient jack of all trades (as was the problem with 3.5e ranger as well)
Highly less valuable when team play is concerned, but all in all, it depends

>>528352104
no because it doesn't exist, but DEX has ruled over strength in D&D since time immemorial, given it governs AC, you can use it to hit things, it relates to a bunch of skills
STR is way easier to stack damage with, sure, but it does less by it's very nature
that being said, I'm just "yapping", see the first line for your answer

>>528344731
your monk build is shit

>>528352698
tabletop monks are grapplegods

>>528352907
>i'll grapp- what do you mean he's too large?

>>528353004

There are a few ways to build monks in paper:
Grapple/Maneuver abuse
Improvised weapon abuse
Nonlethal* damage abuse
Trip* abuse
Ki regen abuse

>>528353085
I wish OWLCRAP was less BAD so you could GRAPPLE (and that grapple in general was like, kinda less bad. it's ok but you sit there hugging 1 guy, that's not very action-economy of you, i theorycrafted so many 3.5e grappling builds because of how cool barbed devils looked)

>>528353290
Stunning fist abuser

>>528353290
>>528353307
As it is, trip abusing is all owlcat monk can do now
and fuck me is it good as a legend or a drunken master

>>528353290
Archer is also very good.
Nonlethal and trip builds are absolutely ridiculously overpowered against vulnerable targets, but there are so many enemies that are invulnerable I couldn't recommend them.

>>528353443
Is it strong in tabletop because goddamm is it fucking useless in owlcat's games

>>528353705
Enemies don't have +50 to fortitude and triple immunity to stun on tabletop, so yeah
It's most of what monk does actually

>>528350693
the arue poster is a turbo lesbian carpet muncher

>>528353771
so monk really is the lawful evil rapist class

>>528353705
It's free in tabletop.

>>528353861
as in no ki or as an action?

>>528353307
>be druid
>be drovier
>your entire team can now trip for free each and every turn pets included at zero investment on your part
Kinda mogs any individual class specializing in a maneuver.

>>528354004
ki

>>528354067
oh
that would really help

>>528354049
aspect of the wolf is awesome yeah
tried tripping in midnight isles and things have +50 cmd
pushing infusion was useless

For me it's the monk who can spam scorching ray until level 14 when you can spam cold ice strike + flaming crow strike

What exactly happens to a dismissed party member? Like where do they go and where would they go if I dismisse them here. I'd like to recruit xan really quick because I suspect that he disappears from the game if I don't or if I refuse to team up with him, but in order to do that I have to dismiss someone else and I don't want them to disappear either.

>>528354894
the langoliers eat them

>>528354403
nani

>>528354943
They'd certainly fit in with the 3D graphics seen in the game, although maybe not in here since this is EE.

>>528355091
ki costs in pathfinder (paper) can be reduced to zero, and monk gets the ability to get a bunch of spell-like abilities

So this motherfucker is just gonna hang out here until I talk to him again? Won't he go into town or something?

>>528326787
Rapeman is that you

>>528326787
>>528327003
Based

>>528355746
who?

>>528352104
no. you can make Monk a fairly decent tank with enough high wis but he will get mogged by a fighter with heavy armor specialization

>>528355812
>doesn't know about rapeman
leave this place and never come back newfag

>>528356276
oh
i thought you meant an anon, not the rapeman

>>528355648
yeah babe

>>528352104
In very rare cases when you can pump stats ridiculously high and add multiple stats to AC. This doesn't happen often on tabletop but it's easy in computer games because you usually have high levels and OP items. But in general AC is a shitty defense because attack bonus increases with level (and strength is very easy to increase) while AC does not, or it does so much slower than attack. Even a heavy armor nigger gets outpaced quickly when the max AC of +5 full plate is +13 and the average full BAB class gets +20 BAB just by levelling, and that doesn't include weapon enhancements, class abilities, weapon training, etc. It's generally better to defend yourself with stuff like miss chances and mirror image.

>>528352104
real pathfinder doesn't need a dedicated tank build in the party since your DM isn't going to throw forty million stat boosted gargoyles or ghouls at you like owlkek does

What the FUCK is that

>>528358331
>ok so party, you're travelling towards the city, roll this d20 to determin how many goblin ambushes you'll face along the way and these 2 d6s to see how many goblins will be in each!!!

>>528361481
she calls you elantach however. battle barks aren't canon, its been this way since bg1 with the snarky comments jaheria and others will make about being controlled by an omnipotent being

This dude is easily my favorite so far, I love that he has parentheses in his dialogue that voice his actual thoughts.

>>528364952
Sorry but I need all content to conform to cross-universe power scaling and the lore bible.

>>528364892
To add on to the thing about battle barks not being canon, they're mostly written to be agnostic to your development with the character, outside of cases like BG3 where you have some fully replacing their VO after events and stuff anyway, or WotR lich route companions.
So for writing battle barks or selection lines, they're going to go from the baseline for the most part, including before events where Yrliet decides to call you elantach, or just because they need to fill out three or four lines so it's not always the same "pay with your blood" or such.

>>528365148
tomorrow I think. theres 0 hype for it

>>528364952
>Edwin is strong mechanically and character-wise too.
Am I gonna lose him if I kill dynaheir?

>>528368409
Nah. It's Minsc who's attached to Dynaheir, and she's killed at the start of BG2.

Why does Imoen look like a 50 year old woman with botox implants in bg1?
>>528368459
He keeps complaining about how annoyed he is and how he's just using us me for his own good, so I'd assume that once I help him kill dynaheir he's gonna leave.

>>528368625
modeled after a real person because SOVL and also no budget lol edwin stays with you if you help him because idk its a vidya and he's duty bound to follow you to the ends of the earth because you helped him once (unless you get too high rep then he leaves disgusted by your do-goodery) theres some shenanigans you can do that leads to having dynaheir and edwin in the same party, it doesn't last and eventually edwin attacks her lol

>>528368625
I never thought she looked 50 years old. Her make up was how women in the 90s look at the time.

>>528368935
that woman looks like she's pushing 40. Glad I that look died out.

>>528368935
>looks 45
>is actually mid 20's
Ultimate youthful mommy sex aesthetic.

>>528368625
If I’m remembering correctly for some reason they had to rush Imoen’s portrait and unironically got one of the dev’s wives to portray her.

>>528368625
>He keeps complaining about how annoyed he is and how he's just using us me for his own good, so I'd assume that once I help him kill dynaheir he's gonna leave.
He won't leave. He's a whiny cunt, but he's still Lawful Evil and keeps his word.

>>528368625
>Why does Imoen look like a 50 year old woman with botox implants in bg1?
It's just the artstyle, all the BG portraits look weird. I think it's supposed to be a spin on the Frank Frazetta style.

I kind of want to see an Explorator-centric CRPG now.

So it turns out you have warpfrost as a psychic phenomenon too. However it seems to assume that you have Telepathy, which I didn't. Would be nice if there was an interaction for whichever discipline you had.

My logic was "OK, let's get Karlach's and Shadowheart's companion quests out of the way, so that I don't get locked out of them by accident like a nearly did with the frog."
Turns out doing Shadowheart's sidequest seemingly skips THE MAIN QUEST.

Anyone keeping up on Swordhaven?

You have a larian/zoomer stink about you, but this is the reality of CRPGs that don't have 10s or 100s of millions cash on hand. I'm personally alright with this, and BG3 mocap shit and so on doesn't really do anything for me.

here's some gameplay footage with a retarded voice to tell you what to think

>>528377282
It's DOS2 all over again
All the effort was put into the very beginning and the game then falls apart after the first act
A little spoiler but act 3 is literally random shit piled together without any structure
Pathfinder and RT final acts look like masterpieces in comparison

>>528377035
Everything after act 1 is shit desu

sometimes I feel like my life is a computer role-playing game

blogpost inc.

so i just played about 40 hours of neverwinter nights. i had heard the base campaign was bad and multipler is the real point but i wanted to see for myself. i just started act 3 and decided to stop.
it really is quite bland.

encounters are thoughtless compared to baldur's gate (just spawning 15 of the same mob, instead of nicely balanced mixtures of melee/range/caster/stealthies).

the fact that 90% of every container is locked and/or trapped, means that you spend a ridiculous amount of time waiting for your henchman to unlock/disarm stuff, unless you play a rogue yourself. you can't justify choosing any henchman besides tomi the rogue for the same reason. he has terrible ai and will regularly ignore your orders and instead run off to fight zombies halfway across the map.

loot is all samey, there's a few generic types of item and you just pick the best ones for your class and then upgrade them over time from +1, +2, etc.

dungeons are overly long and filled with masses of the same enemy mob and 400 locked chests that contain 15 gold pieces and vendor trash. by the time i quit i had 400,000 gold, with nothing to spend it on.

the actual combat is fun enough, satisfying to mostly carry the game, but i'd be curious to see how a mage-type would handle the thousands of trash enemies the game throws at you without constantly running out of memorised spells.

main story is fine, side quests are generic, writing is passable, but this is really a dungeon crawler more than anything.

i love the graphics/aesthetic, although the interface is heinous both visually and functionally.

overall my experience was a 6.5/10, mostly frustrating with some occasional moments of greatness, mostly attributed to the little vignette side areas like charwood in act 2.

starting at 3 and walking into the town and seeing the exact same tileset as act 2 just sucked out all desire to continue. i'm gonna switch to pillars of eternity i think, i never beat it when it came out.

>>528381207
The NWN OC campaign was an afterthought: the expansions were the real deal.
>the interface is heinous
I admit I haven't played it since launch, but I distinctly remember that the UI was top notch

>>528383012
i hate the right click radial wheel thing with submenus, and the hotbars can only be bound to default f1, f2, f3 keys instead of real keybinds. also by default the position of the dialogue box in the top left is terrible but at least that is fixable with mods. the character sheet lacks detail too. and it's all just ugly

>>528378698
>mortismal

>>528383143
>i hate the right click radial wheel thing with submenus
our friendship is over

>>528379564
In BG3 the problem is that they tried way different strategies in each act and they don't mesh together at all. Act 1 is a series of sidequests. It doesn't feel like that in the first playthrough because you will be more immersed and focused on exploring and trying new shit but story-wise you can go straight to act 2 without involving yourself with the grove or the goblins. You don't even have to visit underdark. This isn't bad for a starting area as it allows players to get the hang of things. Act 2 reverses course completely. You have one singular goal that overshadows everything and you can't progress without completing it. Every sidequest is also intrinsically related to that main goal one way or the other. And then you get to act 3 where the climax of the story is and the threat is more imminent than ever and the game goes: "go ahead, fuck around for a while, explore the city, go sightseeing, visit the brothel, the quakes?, don't worry about it". It provides a visible path to the end goal but puts no pressure on you to pursue it and lets you play in a more open world style which doesn't make any sense. You either build the whole game like that or you build an earlier act like that. If you would swap the structures of act2 and act3 the game would flow much better.
On the other hand encounter design clearly deteriorates as the game progresses. There was more though put in the encounters in the temple of jhergal than it was put in the whole of act 3.

>>528383569
I mean without outside knowledge you don't actually know that Orin will be fine sitting on your companion while you take forever to kill Gortash.

>>528384017
She actually tells you as much and the game never had the balls to lie to you. It would be much different if orin kidnapped a romanced companion and was on a semi-random timer. But those are thing for actually good games with the balls to ignore tendie tears for losing "unfairly" their waifu.

I hope Lex Imperialis will have writing like this.

>Nurah (Swarm specific) where you realize you can't get your proper payback in the Garrison room. Your army is there. Your party is there, watching. The rest of the soldiers will be here soon. The siege and the mythic dip have taken their toll on you, and frankly there are more important things to be done in the now. So you let her go, just like you promised her in the tent, she's be in for a trick, she just doesn't know how much. You even propose for her to join your inner circle. You know the she won't accept, but she needs to believe you mean it. She comes back: it was a matter of when, not if. The portal of the latest whoever she's betraying fizzles and closes shut. You kill the annoying alchemist. Sweaty and tired from the battle, Nurah's dumb little "Wasn't that fun?" gets caught halfway in her throat as she pales, looking up at you and hearing the insensifying buzzing from within your robes. She destroyed her own and only way out. Her accomplice's body is already being consumed. She's in for the joke of her life now.

Am I the only one who got the impression from Janus and Yrliet's reaction that rape had already happened? Which is why she flips her shit so much when someone proposes her on your ship?
Madame Vyatt thought Yrliet was just a mutant aka a second class citizen, in a governor's palace that is slowly corrupted by Slaanesh. I just assumed someone had already tried and/or succeeded in raping her and that this was why she hates mon-keigh so much. Would make more sense than her current retardation.

hell no. that game is not a crpg. its whatever type of games like Lisa/earthbound/undertale are

>>528401741
I don't care about your e-celebs
But no, not really. It's.. well an rpgmaker game, no better description for it
I like how rushable it is, it can be super long (dangerous, unforgiving) or super fast if you know what you're doing

NTA, but who is gonna enforce "common law" outside of Jimmy and Calcazar?

>>528403409
I don't even know what the main story is about
40k is incredibly cringey and I can't bring myself to learn anything about it

>>528404546
as essentially a multi planetary govenor you have absolute authority over all your subjects but not imperial institutions

>>528403113
becoming a judge and giving out sentences seems really fun, reminds me of the only great thing about DA:I
>>528404994
somebody still got to enforce that authority and you are in the fucking koronus expanse that is cut of by warp storms so you are the closest thing to imperial authority there is

Probably the luckiest I've ever gotten in this game

Outer Worlds sisters...
Are we back?

it's somehow going to be an even bigger flop than the first game

Is grease the actual best spell? Does anything else even come close?

So are the DLC twins just objectively the best romance options in KM?

>>528409623
Yes.

Your mother's pussy produces the best grease

>>528390716
I definitely kind of got the feeling it was more than just "oh god the Mon-keigh is flirting with me" disgust but something more personal, since she has the same level of disgust throughout your romance no matter what, and given how relatively short your time together in game is, it wouldn't be surprising if she had some shit to work through and just never does in the game. As far as a lot of it goes, it wouldn't surprise me if they ended up going with that kind of implication and just never said anything because Yrliet would rather die than open up, especially to a mon-keigh about it, and with how Elder are she already compartmentalize/suppresses a lot of emotions.

>>528409623
Pretty much despite their lack of content. If I had to rank them I'd say

Both Twins>Single Twin>Octavia>Nyrissa>Valeire

>>528409623
that's Nyrissa
muh tragedy kino

>>528409623
They’re pretty weak beyond the novelty of fucking twins.

>>528409763
Kill yourself

>>528409623
pretty much

How different is kingmaker from war of the righteous? If I liked WotR is kingmaker definitely worth picking up?

>>528409623
nyrissa

>>528409816
Nyrissa would be more popular if actually getting her ending wasn't such an annoying process.

>>528409623
Yes, which goes to show how terrible the romance content in Kingmaker is since the Twins are just 3-4 paragraphs and it's STILL better than your other options.

>>528409998
ehh its rougher around the edges mechanically and writing wise, but it also has some pretty cool companions that I like to take along like jubilost and ekun

I'm all for redemption kino but Nyrissa has done so much damage to your kingdom I find the secret ending a bit silly. At least Wenduag's retarded antics only affect a handful of people at best.

>>528409998
It’s rougher, buggier, and even though it lacks some of wrath’s bullshit the game can be brutal.

>>528410713
nyrissa's excuse is that her empathy/good emotions/heart or whatever was taken from her by the lantern king, and when you give it back to her in the finale she stops being a heartless bitch

Stand proud, Carnifex.
You are strong.

>>528410713
The difference is that Wendy does everything she does because she’s an idiot and was too stupid to even actually endear herself to you before telling you that she’s going to betray you the first chance she gets.

>>528410713
Nyrissa is under an enchantment and had her empathy and compassion magically stripped out of her, Wenduag is just a psychopathic cannibal.

>>528411292
Wenduag does everything she does because she's damaged goods that was already broken into a subservient backstabbing wretch by Hosilla when you met her.

>>528409623
Tristian is

>>528410925
even though heartless bitch nyrissa was hotter

I'm still in Act 2. Something tells me that I can fix Wendy. My cock would never steer me wrong ...

>>528413448
She nearly starved to death trying to hunt after her dad got grabbed by Savamelekh and only survived because Hosilla found her and ran her through a ritual to awaken her demonic blood and when she came out the other side with her mind intact was then tortured into subservience before being sent back to the tribes to start tricking her friends into being captured by Hosilla.

>>528414184
she revels in being an evil cannibalistic asshole. One of your bonding moments is when you gang up with her to mercilessly bully and threaten torture of an erastil priest

>>528412171
I require photographic evidence

>>528412794
She gives me aggressively straight vibes personally. If I had to make one of the romances lesbian only it'd probably be Arue, despite that being a weird choice with her being a succubus and all.

>>528409623
No. Kingmaker doean't have good romance

>trying to doing Rykad Minoris first on highest difficulty
holy shit, this is so fucking ass

>>528414729
She's in full copium over her life and the idea that all the suffering she's been through has made her strong so bringing her along with you lets her feed into it because she sees cruelty and greed as a way to get ahead. There are really only two ways to "fix" her the first being hot dickings so she becomes dependent on you or taking Lann and banishing her to the darklands during act 3 so she can face her figurative demons and overcome the temptations of her demon blood on her own.

She was going through the same issues in the prologue before you interrupted when she was trying to work herself up towards killing her boyfriend (Lann) because she didn't want to send him to Hosilla.

If you could only play one PF game would it be kingmaker or wotr?

>>528415118
>If I had to make one of the romances lesbian only it'd probably be Arue
No that would be just as retarded. I'm glad Owlcat never goes this route despite all the "this character is definitely lesbian coded" shit that reddit constantly does.

>>528415421
Only the first two cosnoport fights are rough. Once you get pasqal it's more or less smooth saling

>>528415421
Worth it to save the recruit.

>>528415118
She is aggressively straight. If you're a woman and try to initiate romance with her in the abandoned shack she basically says "no thanks I need cock"
Lesbian only Arue could make sense in a "I don't want to be tempted to drain your life" way but people would have thrown an insane fit over it and it still would be spotty reasoning, current status is better. Maybe Nenio could be interesting in a experimenting way.

>>528414942
She recorded her lines from home during an extreme heatwave, so she was completely naked and sweating. She has talked about this in a few interviews on youtube.

>>528415617
Just saying if I had to pick one it'd be her, not that I want her to be lesbian only.

>>528415848
I feel like Nenio could only ever be a fuckbuddy, not a proper romance option.

>>528416010
Yeah it'd be more of a hands off, clinical sense of Nenio only being into it for the sake of cataloging more things for her book or something, probably trigger it during one of her "this is what friends do" conversations basically, maybe in act 4.
Probably just good ending have her not end up erasing her memory of it after and not treat it just as a fling but eh who knows.

>>528415250
Just like every Owlcat game.

Don't worry now that they have bg3 as a blueprint for what to do in thier crpgs owlcat will now have amazing romances.

>>528416736
BG3 didn't have great romances either, ironically Bioware still has the best track record with content like that, no other company has ever even matched them, let alone surpassed them in that regard. Any single girl from SWTOR alone has more and better content than every girl put together than something like Wrath or BG3.

>>528417306
Comparing a single player content to an online game that recieves regular updates content is disingenuous

>>528416736
Oh no... bg3 romances were so-so, just like the characters themselves

>>528416379
How dare you

>>528416379
Only women. Daeran and jimmy are peak. Nothing can compare

>>528417808
SWTOR is only notable for its single player content, though. And even if you remove it from the equation, what CRPG ever matched the romances in Mass Effect? Or even Dragon Age? Hell you could even argue the BG2 romances are better than the romances in Larian or Owlcat games. Bioware really is unmatched when it comes to romance content, no other company has ever come close.

>>528417808
The class stories are self contained though and have nothing to do with the MMO part of the game. Sith Warrior and Vette romance is peak.

>>528417201
Everything may as well end after witch hunt anywy

>>528415118
its always the straightest women and the ones that is romanced the most by guys in crpgs that get hit with the
>"she's lesbian coded!"
characters like Lelianna,Shadowheart,Karlach,Rose Cassidy,Tali,Liara,Viconia,Cassie,Bastila,Lohse,Brianna,Arue,Valerie,Glory etc...

>>528418475
>Bioware really is unmatched when it comes to romance content
You mean they used to be. Anything past ME2 was pretty shit with the exception of ME3 but only if you carried over a Tali or Garrus romance.

>>528418685
half the girls you listed are bisexual. but generally you're right. to this day the mass effect subreddit seethes because tali and miranda have no interest in scissoring with femshep.

how much do you miss out on if you can't recruit Arueshalae immediately when you meet her?

>>528418174
for me, it was daeran and cassia. kingmaker I just did the nyrissa romance because I wasn't super interested in the companion options and I thought it was funny that the baron just constantly pines for the woman that's the route of all of his/her kingdom's problems

>>528418694
Bioware more or less doesn't exist at this point so yes. But that just makes it worse, how is it current day CRPG devs so utterly and completely fail to match or beat content that was made in games that are 10+ or even 20+ years old?

>>528418685
>Shadowheart, Karlach
Uh, must have missed the part where Shadowheart admires and shows interest in Karlach like, right after meeting her.

>>528372746
The year is 2025. The effects of baneposting continue to reverberate

>>528419101
not much at all. she'll visit you after a few days and tell you to go to this place to clear out some demons and a hag with her and your party. she's invincible and the hag can end up targeting her and wasting it's turns so it could make the encounter easier for you

>>528418685
I have never once seen anyone claim Viconia is meant to be a carpet muncher. Actually I've never seen that claim about any of the BG2 romance options, probably because the people who make claims like that are too young and/or stupid to play through BG2.

>>528355253
This is what rogue Aion should have been

>>528419101
Nothing much give her recruitment starts almost immediately in Act 3. It's more of a flavor thing, she has some interactions with Minagho and Nurah and also has a full blown orgasm if you choose the Azata path.

>>528418685

>>528388621
>Areelu never does anything for me

>>528419380
I've seen it on the BG3 subreddit. It's actually impressive seeing people act like they know so much about characters like Jaheira and Viconia despite never touching the originals.

The funniest example is how they're conviced that Jaheira and Khalid are some tragic love story when all she does is nag at him in BG1 and then when he dies in BG2 she's trying to jump on CHARNAME's cock three days later.

>>528419756

>>528420882
Her VA is a lesbian is is pretty vocal about Shart being lesbian coded.

>>528421218
Because she's a whore?

>>528420882
She flirts multiple times with Karlach. Shart likes muscle people, see Halsin

Karlach literally calls herself mama k and talks about wanting kids, she is straight and muscle mommy coded.

>>528409709
Yeah agreed. We will never know for sure what went through Yrliet writer's head but I felt like it made more sense to have something fucked up in her background than just racism (I heard there was more than one writer btw and it didn't help her case).
The other thing that tips me off is that she doesn't go apeshit when the Drukhari wyches hit on her or Marazhai has some "come hither" comments. However one mon-keigh that walks up to her, grabs her hand and goes "wanna bang" and she gets murderous.

>>528420061
I consider it a bonus, because >>528420153 is correct.

>>528420882
You mean outside of her talking about how the drow twins are also hot as well and wanting to sleep with them if she's not romancing you? Most straight girls don't sign up for a threesome with another girl because of the other girl.

>>528421407
can confirm. I was in act 2 when they had banter where karlach started flirting with her. then my paladin character smited both of them to death on the spot.

I've keept playing it and I've noticed that the camera seems to be bugged, in conversations it always drops down so you barely see the talking characters. Earlier in this scene there was an animation which I was only seeing half of because of this.

>>528421407
>She flirts multiple times with Karlach. Shart likes muscle people, see Halsin
then she is so not lesbian coded or are you one of those BG3 reddit user that have headcanon Halsin as a butch lesbian?
>>528421647
>You mean outside of her talking about how the drow twins are also hot as well and wanting to sleep with them if she's not romancing you?
Okay? but the twins aren't 2 women though, if anything just call Shart bisexual like most characters are in DnD

>>528422539
I'm not saying shes lesbian retard, I'm saying shes not straight. You Shartfags think shes a straight tradwife for some reason.

>>528421072
it makes for a great narrative, but yeah feels bad for being a crona fan. my absolute favorite chapter ended up being ox ford's, it's pretty isolated from the rest of the overarching plot but man it was powerful to me, and it fleshed out the some of the secondary cast that don't typically get as much screentime as protagonists do.

>>528422539
I wasn't saying she was lesbian, I was saying she's not part of the "straightest women" part that was being mentioned. I specifically didn't call her lesbian for that reason.

>>528421859

Just finished my first Rogue Trader run, bit disappointed by the ending slides. I did all this and died after a couple of years?

>>528424008
She looks weird and way older in the DLC for some fucking reason, while Majorlaine looks younger and more smexy.
>>528424312
True....

>>528421859
Pansexuality, but less based. Still based tho

>>528425225
RT's endings slides are notoriously shit and bugged. The funniest ones are Pasqal's though.

>>528425225
Pretty sure every companion's ending slide is bugged except Pasqal and Ulfar to some extent. Yrliet has it the worst but they all have issues of some overriding others and junk

why can't I use my aeon powers to untrannify anevia?

>>528426737
you have to wait until the ending to do that

I went all in on the Hedwirg meme using his premade 32 point stat buy and going full shield bashing fighter and it's going a lot better than I thought it would. I guess the only downsides are AC because armor in KM is objectively worse than pajama tanking by every metric and the fact that flails are kind of a shit weapon group with the only good flail in the game locked behind a late game quest, though you can cheese it early on.

>>528426535
Worked fine on my machine

>>528425225
>I did all this and died after a couple of years?
Can you post the slide that says you die after a couple o fyears? I don't remember that at all

>>528429620
Haha, you got jewed!

>>528425225
No. Rich people in 40k often live hundreds of years due to expensive treatments that extend your lifespan. As a rogue trader there's no reason to believe you die in a few years.

>>528427997
It's absolute garbage for a variety of reasons including it not actually being able to parry flurry attacks of any kind, being subject to not working due to animation issues, and needing specific builds to be viable whatsoever in the first place. And, of course, it's useless against all the ranged and casting opponents you fight. Just ignore it.

>She actually got raped
Man, you lads lied, where is the sweaty, sloppy dungeon sex scene you guys promised me?
Still, it's quite interesting how she was a virgin then, but her dungeon mates took her first time..

>>528430390
You understand that people may die due to unforseen circumstances, yes? Like Theodora for example. And being rogue trader is dangerous business

congrats, you get the dumbest post in the thread award. We're talking about lifespan. The Rogue Trader main character can easily live to several hundred years old. We don't need someone chiming in to say "yeah but if you're killed you die".

kids these days.

>>528431039
Congrats your post is still more retarded than mine. Nothing in the ending slide says that you die of natural causes

Syneros, I know you are a slave but be fucking honest for a second
I cannot justify killing a high ranking legionaire before a slave

>>528427992
I dont have it but it says that your little empire didnt survive long and neither did its creator after the Empire launches a retalation fleet after you. I thought the point of letting Nomos get the shard was to protect the area against invasion but apparently he didnt do much..
