>Thread Question:
Do you like your pet nigger so far?

Lorgar was weak.

I was thinking about a possible 40k show, maybe even a rogue trader show, and honestly the thing that bothers me the most about 40k is that it lacks an explanation to fit swords into what is essentially modern combat

>>529413306 (OP)
Reminder:

Romancefaggotry is literally the number one reason behind RPG popularity and pretty much always has been. I'm not gonna sit here and pretend Baldur's Gate 2 wasn't way more successful than Icewind Dale because the latter was essentially just a top down combat simulator while the former gave you dark elf pussy and let you defeat a god at his own game.
The only thing people remember from the base game Neverwinter Nights campaign is wanting to fuck Aribeth and the most memorable part of its expansion is that you can not only bang her but also end up in a harem end with the bad bitch drow assassin.
What's the biggest discussion topic for final fantasy 7? Tifa vs Aerith.
What's the biggest discussion topic for every purse owner game? Who's best girl. Asuka vs Rei is eternal for a reason.
Secondaries only know about Baldur's Gate 3 but in Original Sin 2 it was the same shit flinging over Sibelle vs Lohse, original sin 1's endings are focused over whether or not your main characters forged a soulforge between each other or not.
Dark Messiah of Might and Magic is remembered for its kick button and Xana's surprisingly loyal and devoted succubus ass.

It turns out that in a genre defined by "slay the dragon, get the girl, be a hero" people care about the "get the girl" part of the fairytale.

>Lorgar should've simply raped the emperor
No..IT SHOULD'VE BEEN ME

is Chicken familiar really just a straight +3 hp? No level scaling or anything? Seems awful. I mean, still nice with the perception bonus but all familiars get that.

>>529413674
kys people still buy male companions

>>529413645
Yeah. What really makes Lorgar a complete joke is he really had absolute zero reason to fall to Chaos, he suffered nothing by comparison to someone like Angron and if he had simply stopped obsessing over trying to turn the Emperor into a figure of worship he would've been fine.

>>529413507
Melee combat exists simply because of the threats that also exist, many of them simply favor melee combat, so melee combat becomes a necessity.
There's also good enough armor to make melee combat somewhat more viable, people can take some shots if they're wearing something heavy enough and not being hit by anti-vehicle weaponry, just look at terminators.
It's essentially both of those, although the vast majority of combat isn't done in melee, both the guard and space marines primarily fight at a distance, the guard wins the majority of it's fights by heavy artillery and vehicles, with the guardsmen just holding the line (as again, the majority of enemies get close).
Even drukhari and aeldari who make liberal use of melee have melee units fill specialist roles.

>>529413805
Solomorne is romanceable though so I don't see how you can argue his DLC doing well is a point against romances in CRPGs.

>>529413793
>owlcrap game no is balanced??
Yes. Also to your question yes it's just a +3.

>>529413867
Wrong, he had multiple things working against him, olympia or whatever his planet was called ALREADY worshipped chaos under different names. When he distanced himself from the emperor he went back to study his planets gods and that was that, erebus also actively corrupted him since he knew about chaos and is actively an asshole (his goal is literally just to fuck shit up).
The emperor keeping things hidden and being pissy probably made him seem a lot more suspicious than he had to be.

Storyfag anons, how's Pentiment? It's the only crpg-adjecent vidya on the sale beside Cryptmaster that I considered getting.

playing dos2, should i find and bring all the companions i can or try and stick with just a few of them?
a lot of characters seems good for battle and stats, but also a lot to manage

>>529414264
That is still Lorgars fault, and the fact he didn't see through Erebus is yet another failing. You cannot possibly argue Lorgar had a more understandable fall than pretty much ANY other Primarch, excepting Curze who was just an unbelievable retard.

my Tau virgin wife! Owlcat *cough* please...

>>529413507
>explanation to fit swords into what is essentially modern combat
Modern combat doesn't have people dealing with swarms of enemies where there's a 100:1 enemy to ammunition ratio. Also armour has progressed enough that it can usually shrug off normal enemy fire, so you'll "have" to use melee that can typically cut through.
>>529414341
Bring who you like, they can all be respecced into whatever you want. If you want to be a metafagging little shit, then make sure to bring Fane.

>>529414301

>>529414341

>he should've simply not gotten tricked
c'mon anon

>>529414008
>many of them simply favor melee combat, so melee combat becomes a necessity
A revolver is better than a sword even in close quarters
>melee units fill specialist roles
What specialist roles couldn't possibly be fulfilled with modern weaponry?

It's the kind of thing that works unless it's put in live action

It can work in anime, I guess.

>>529413460
Lorgar won.
> Lorgar was right about the Emperor and he saw the truth through the gaslit
> survived the failed rebellion, became a powerful psyker
> His ideas are the only reason why Imperium is still functioning
> his legion is still large and strong

>>529414469
He had all the tools at his disposal to keep himself from falling. You also still haven't named a Primarch you think had a less justifiable fall.

>>529414092
You only mean waifus

>>529414487
>A revolver is better than a sword even in close quarters
They don't use regular normal metal swords, and there's only so much armor penetration you can put into a revolver without it snapping off your arm, also you can't parry with a revolver and people aren't suicidal to engage something like this with zero actual defense besides "die doing some damage", mostly
>What specialist roles couldn't possibly be fulfilled with modern weaponry?
There's a reason melee units move fast and hit hard, essentially the equivalent of cavalry, melee weaponry is largely anti-armor
>it can work in anime
What are you talking about
Anything can work in any media, it's literally made up

>>529414487
>A revolver is better than a sword even in close quarters
not if that sword is a power sword or chain sword

>>529414664
>he had all the tools
He literally didn't, nobody knew what chaos was because the emperor refused to tell anyone, even magnus didn't know until way later while he was actively getting tzeentch-dicked
I didn't "name" anything because I'm not trying to have some weird pity party suffering ranking, everyone 'fell' under different circumstances
I guess you could say perturabo if you realy wanted to play this game? He only changed sides because he felt unappreciated

>>529414629
>His ideas are the only reason why the Imperium is still functioning
That is completely wrong, the entire reason the Imperium has devolved into the wretched state its now in is because of Lorgars ideas prevailing. It's one of the great tragedies of the setting. Even Rowboat Girlyman commented on it when he got brought back:

>"Why do I still live? What more do you want from me? I gave everything I had to you, to them. Look what they've made of our dream. This bloated, rotting carcass of an empire is driven not by reason and hope but by fear, hate and ignorance. Better that we had all burned in the fires of Horus' ambition than live to see this."

>>529415016
ermm he got HOPEPILLED by knowing the lion also came back though

>>529414758
Romance is romance, it's an integral part of CRPGs and the sooner people accept this, the sooner the quality and depth of said romances will improve rather than being the tacked on feature they currently are. Even in such a state they're still a huge focus and central point for the fans of just about every CRPG.

>>529414801
>melee weaponry is largely anti-armor
If something you are facing has so much armor that you can't pierce it with a fucking shotguns, then you use artillery or anti tank weaponry, not fucking knives
>also you can't parry with a revolver
Yeah, the idea is that you kill them before you have to parry
That's how you survive
>>529414834
Guns are faster than swords
If you are facing an enemy like tyranids literally charging you, you want to be fast

In any shootout, someone like Marazhai, Abelard or Kibellah is doomed to die immediately, they charge the enemy with their silly medieval weaponry and get hit by a shotgun to the fucking face

>>529414972
Alright I'll give you Perturabo, falling because of an inferiority complex is pretty weak. Also the Emperor had solid reasons not to tell anyone about Chaos so you can't really fault him for that decision.

Skald didn't have any rance and it moggs the shot out of 90% of crpgs.

>>529415682
Why do you keep ignoring what we're typing and repeating yourself?

Fallout 1 didn't have any romance and it moggs the shot out of 90% of crpgs

>529415682
Drukhari can dodge bullets and their armor can comfortably handle bolter-tier fire
Abelard is a human and would use ranged weaponry as plan A but carapace armor would be able to withstand a shotgun blast (also assuming he didn't have any form of energy shielding)
Kibellah is an assassin and not a fighter

>>529415731
Many CRPGs do well despite the lack of Rance, but in truth all would be improved if he was in them.

>>529415682
anon, power weapons cut through armor the same way a lightsaber does
they are way better than a shotgun that can't even pen modern ballistic plates with its low velocity slugs
large power weapons like thunder hammers and power fists can even damage vehicles

>>529415736
Because I am yet to see how anyone like Kibellah or Marazhai would survive more than 2 battles
You haven't offered any explanation, just "they don't use normal swords", as if range wasn't an important component.

Solasta didn't have any romance and it moggs the shit out of 90% of crpgs

>>529415702
I feel like going "hey the things you're all talking to are demons btw they're trying to steal your soul stay away from those" would be pretty smart

>>529415897
>>529416068
wrong, they have lower player counts, which mean they're worse

Age of decadence didn't have any romance and it moggs the shit out of 90% of crpgs

4 elements trainer had romance and it mogs the shit out of 90% of crpgs

Colony ship didn't have any romance and it moggs the shit out of 90% of crpgs

>>529416119
The Emperor understood Chaos was fueled by emotion, if he allowed everyone to realize it was there and what it was doing it would've gone out of control much earlier than it ended up doing. If he had a bit more time his Webway project would've succeeded and the problem would've been solved. The only real mistakes the Emperor made were appointing Horus as the grand leader and not killing Angron on the spot after he realized what the Nails had done to him.

>>529416461
>everyone
The primarchs are like 20 guys man

i've had romance and i mog the shit out of 90% of (You)

>>529415949
>Drukhari can dodge bullets
Drukhari can move at 2,727 mph?
In that case good luck hitting them with your power sword, or anything really.
You might as well just surrender if you meet one, even if you are 30 space marines, because you won't even see him fucking moving.
>>529415963
Again, I cannot fathom a situation where you would send a specialized melee unit instead of barraging with artillery, a tank or from a flying ship
As for space marines, they can easily carry weapons of a caliber that would absolutely destroy anything, not even talking about piercing, just straight up break every single bone inside the armor if they hit.

Why would anyone be a melee specialist is beyond me
IRL soldiers have combat knives, just in case, that makes sense, but being a melee guy outright? Nonsense.

>>529416068
Solasta is a really bad game though, 5E combat is shit, the character building is limited, the story is one of the worst ever made, the character models and visuals are pretty much the absolute worst in CRPG history, I mean what exactly is there to recommend about that game? Verticality? Even that meme didn't result in fantastic combat encounters in that game, they were just okay. I cannot possibly see how someone can recommend that game as something fun or good to play.

Deus ex didn't have any romance and it moggs the shit out of 90% of crpgs

>>529416060
>You haven't offered any explanation
he literally did
Dark eldar or even an assassin like kibbles are superhumanly fast by irl standards
In urban or voidship combat they can just ran at you and only have to face a few shots before getting in stabbing range
on a full scale battlefield, dark eldar will use their hovercraft to close to melee range
death cult assassins would have a hard time getting close but they aren't usually deployed in setpiece battles except as part of an inquisition force which would probably give them a chimera or razorback to ride around in (depending on what they need to do, they could just be rear guard for enemy melee units)

>>529416510
The best way to keep a secret is to make sure no one else knows about it. I genuinely doubt the Emperor explaining Chaos to his sons would've prevented their fall, especially in cases like Angron or Curze.

>>529416814
Don't bother, he's ignoring what gets posted at him

Dungeon siege didn't have any romance and it moggs the shit out of 90% of crpgs

>>529416814
>or even an assassin like kibbles are superhumanly fast by irl standards
No kibellah would very easily get shot down by a regular autogun actually, she's a death cult assassin (schizo with a knife), not an Assassin (superhuman)

Both of the pillars games didn't have any romance and they mogg the shit out of 90% of crpgs.

>>529417026
poe2 had romance

The shadowrun games didn't have any romance and they mogg the shit out of 90% of crpgs.

>>529416814
>dark eldar will use their hovercraft to close to melee range
Just fucking shoot with heavy weapons from the hovercraft
You are going out of your way to do the tactically disadvantageous thing
>In urban or voidship combat they can just ran at you and only have to face a few shots before getting in stabbing range
Which is why I said 2 battles, I give that they could luck out in 2 by being fast
Any more than that the chances of just getting shot are too much

>>529416858
>*Absolutely inane, out of the way, insane explanation that would never work*
>duh why are you still not convinced?
Because there is NO REASON to drop off melee troops in an hovecraft instead of dropping ranged troops with maybe a backup knife and shooting at armored enemies from the overcraft
Your explanations are SHIT which is why they are not acknowledged.

The reason is that it's cool. That's the reason for space marines with battle axes, when they could easily carry artillery in their bare hands.

>>529417191
I wish I could fuck is0bel silly though

Underrail didn't have any romance and it moggs the shit out of 90% of crpgs

>>529417364
I still love Vivian bros... Also the Tchort interrogator too...

>>529415957
rape makes me sad because the girl is sad and crying. I don't want to see girls be sad

>when they could easily carry artillery in their bare hands.
They do, dumbass

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim moggs the shit out of 90% of crpgs

>>529416648
>Again, I cannot fathom a situation where you would send a specialized melee unit instead of barraging with artillery, a tank or from a flying ship
many militaries in 40k have advanced vehicles and personal armor that makes small elite forces, deep infiltration and decapitation strikes possible
space marines and eldar primarily fight like this which is how they overcome being massively outnumbered by most other factions
>As for space marines, they can easily carry weapons of a caliber that would absolutely destroy anything, not even talking about piercing, just straight up break every single bone inside the armor if they hit.
we both know fictional armor doesn't work like that, anon
power armor in 40k is like Iron Man's suit, it completely protects the wearer from kinetic energy and acceleration forces

I decided to play 47 this time and put on the robes. It's cool how characters get different looks

>>529417541
You do realize this just furthers my point that any space marine using melee weapons is a fucking moron, right?
I know some do, which is why I claimed they could
That is the point

>>529417509
What? The girls are moaning in ecstasy about 3 seconds in, have you actually played any of the Rance games? At least play Sengoku, legitimately a classic game worth your time.

>>529415016
No, Imperium became wreck because of the war in which loyalists jobbed hard.
Lorgar ideas won because it's the only way for humanity to survive when Emperor and his jobbers failed. The ideas worked for a long time no matter how flawed they are and only this matters. There was simply no better alternative for humans survival in this demigods wars.

And Girlyman couldn't even help himself and required xeno rituals, so he can shut up about others flaws, ffs.

She's aight for a black gal

>>529417509
It's Rance, they'll enjoy it sooner or later. That's pretty much almost all hentai rape frankly, it's a rarity to have the girl be traumatised by it.

>>529417579
>it completely protects the wearer from kinetic energy and acceleration forces
But not a chainsword?
I am not saying they couldn't make up specific space armor mechanics like dune for it to make sense, but as it is (never really explained in depth) it really seems strange

>>529417024
iirc death cult assassins had a 5+ dodge/parry invuln save (ordo assassins got a 4+)
kibbles is a PC anyway so she's more elite than an average death cult member

>>529417818
Why can't Owlcat make a black girl like this

>>529417818
what about for a dwarf?

>>529418057
She cute
She's the only dorf in the games huh?

>>529418057
She's fast (for a dwarf)

>>529417760
The Imperium is falling apart largely because it became a superstitious theocracy rather than the enlightened society that prized logic and reason the Emperor was attempting to rebuild. Consigning the Emperor to the Golden Throne and turning him into a deity didn't save the Imperium, it doomed it.

>>529417818
She's the worst companion in her game, though, just like Blitz was in his. Makes rolling a Decker PC practically mandatory in both games.

>>529418014
well most people who play 40k are (somehow) less autistic than you so they understand that while it's not a 100% realistic depiction of combat (literally no fiction, not even hard sci fi is) it has its own internal logic

>>529418181
>She's the worst companion in her game, though, just like Blitz was in his. Makes rolling a Decker PC practically mandatory in both games.
Incredibly midwit take

Soldier or Operative Sniper? what is more "fun"?

>>529418181
>The Imperium is falling apart largely because it became a superstitious theocracy
Without it the Imperium would have been destroyed long time ago - that is the point..
shitwreck that somehow keeps working >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> perfect and dead, all the time, it's simple

>>529418693
Soldier. Gunning down an entire corridor and shredding multiple enemies or magdumping one big guy to death is a lot more fun than plinking two people in one turn. Problem with Soldier is that you'll need some levels before you can reliably hit shit.

>>529418693
Soldier

>Heinrix is mad I blew up the satan machine
Jimmy. Bro. The cultists in this setting do not have "secrets" like that. They do not have "plans". They follow the schizo ramblings of a bird god who thinks it's funny to trick people into believing they're on the brink of some mind-shattering discovery. Seriously, name ONE TIME someone was better off for delving into a Tzeentch cult's works, rather than burning the lot of it.

>>529418693
Soldier gets to burst-fire mostly, and support for AoE weapons. Operative is mostly about buffing your team and sooome sniping, up to you. Most people in here freaking hecking loooove playing some cookie cutter build and complaining that fights end in 1 turn so they'll probably say soldier though.
Although I do agree that soldier is rather fun, I still really like operative purely because of running multiple of them together and stacking exploits with everyone. Operative is a bit weak.

if you have a save from earlier, you can convice him to destroy it himself, but it's based on other decisions you make on the map

>>529418350
You cannot seriously think any other companion in that game is worse than Isobel. She's not terrible, but she's got nothing on the rest of the cast, either, who are all much more interesting and fun characters to have around.

>>529418935
No if the Emperor had been allowed to die the Imperium would've had it hard for a few years at most, then he would've reincarnated and they would have been fine. Placing him on the Golden Throne was the final doom of Humanity.

Fun consequence of unfair bumping up every enemy:
The Herald of Tzench in the Rykard minoris sewers got punked by the rubble.
After he teleported from the damage I caused (debuffed), he got stabbed wherever he teleported and almost came back full circle with like 34 HP

>>529420115
She's only boring if you don't restore her memories actually, as I found out. She's essentially stuck in that no personality mode because you're supposed to do her quest really early, then she becomes a normal companion and is super cute.

>>529419052
You do realize you can actually convince him to destroy it if you just go through the options available, right?

>>529420267
And? She's still nowhere near as cool or fun as Gobbet, Racter, or Gaichu. Even Duncan is better, really.

>>529419292
Uuuugh. I was worried that was going to be the case.
I do have a save from just before, so I guess I could roll it back. But seriously, this is the correct choice here. I'm fine with doing heretical things, if there's some obvious payoff and I can be reasonably sure I won't get caught, but there is zero reason to think that anything good could come from messing with this thing.

>>529419446
I know, it's great.

>>529420986
Definitely a correct choice, but as other anons said, you can convince him to DIY and he's cool with it.

>No if the Emperor had been allowed to die the Imperium would've had it hard for a few years at most
Are you serious? Astronomican keeps connection with other worlds and Imperium wouldn't be able to coordinate/send armies without it. It's crucial, humanity survived thanks to the quantity, not quality. They'd be annihilated in those few years without the GT.

Yes, well, perhaps we are all being mindbroken by our environments? "Stockholm syndrome" is really just like any other feeling of love, just in a context where social convention can't accept it as proper. If the victim doesn't want to press charges, I think we should all respect her choice.

>>529422041
They would lose some worlds, yes, but the Imperium is vast, it would've survived the interim and once the Emperor came back in his full power they could've simply reconquered what they lost.

>>529423452
The Imperium under the Emperor pre Horus Heresy was 100% the best and most righteous civilization in the galaxy.

XENOS CUM! *spits*

>>529423909
Humans are also Old Ones project, even if Inquisition suppresses this knowledge. Probably an unfinished project which was left to evolve on it's own, which is why Eldar are just Humans but better in every way. But still, we might have a common ancestor and maybe offsprings could be made. Even if they were in some way inherently fucked, in line with 40k grimdark

>>529413674
>posted it again award

>>529422041
I've heard that if the Emperor could die properly, he'd just respawn after a while.
That's probably not canon, but even without warp travel of any kind, humans would definitely survive in isolated pockets. Medieval worlds can only exist because some human settlements have basically no contact with the wider Imperium. They wouldn't be a political force, but I'm not sure if that would be such a bad thing.
It's also not impossible that without the Astronomican as a crutch, humans would develop other ways to handle interstellar travel. Other races manage it, and humans aren't dumb, they just live under a system that's incredibly hostile to any kind of innovation.

>>529424583
it's in-universe speculation actually
nobody actually knows

>>529424583
>humans would develop other ways to handle interstellar travel. Other races manage it
Not really

Elves have the webway (no go)
Orks actively don't give a shit and travel in an incredibly unsafe way, but they have the luxury of not having to care about keeping their species or empire alive
Necron tech might as well be magic, no hope at all there
T'au travel is really shitty and their entire presence is barely like a sector or whatever the big space squares of territory are called
Tyranid travel also might as well be magic, and it's not even that efficient to boot, but they again have the luxury of working completely outside of human constraints (what's a few hundred years to get somewhere when you don't have any longterm goals?)
Chaos has an incredible amount of options between regular navigators, sorcerers acting as navigators, just using demons to navigate, or praying and coping

It's really either the astronomican or nothing desu

They're still completely alien species from one another that have no reason to be biologically compatible or share attraction of any kind. It doesn't make any sense.

No. Degenerates and the mentally ill want that. Do not let your time in this place influence you to believe that people shitposting about fucking whatever weird thing it is that they fetishize is anything but the abominable travesty that it is. The VAST majority of people are only attracted to other humans, something has gone wrong with you if you're attracted to anything else.

>>529414301
It's excellent. It was my goty the year it was released. Great narrative. I have some minor beefs with it, but overall it is definitely something worth playing at least once. Unique game. Sister Zdena is cute (even though she's a whore)

You just pivoted from a biological argument to ideological seething, you lost

No, I did not. Only mentally deranged individuals depart from their biological programming.

>>529424583
>That's probably not canon, but even without warp travel of any kind, humans would definitely survive in isolated pockets.
Without Astronomican it would be extremely tough and most of the worlds wouldn't survive, especially those whose vital supplies depend from others planets. Imperium would fall apart for sure.
And yeah, It'd be way worse than age of strife, because at least before rebellion there were no all mighty daemon primarchs deliberately trying to nuke everything loyal to the Imperium.

>>529425376
The point is that there are clearly several mechanisms by which interstellar travel can happen, and just because humans don't understand them, it doesn't mean that human's can't ever understand them. Even the seemingly magical ones. There is a mechanism by which the Eldar Webway functions, someone discovered it in the distant past, and it can be discovered again.

More practically, though, I'd suggest something like a smaller-scale localized psychic beacons, operated by lesser psykers. The Astronomican gets dimmer when you're really far away from Terra, meaning that its strength is based on distance, meaning that a less powerful one might still be usable at a shorter range. Put up a whole bunch of them to establish reliable local jump routes, and hop from start to star.
Or just copy what the Tau are doing and accept that it's going to be shitty from now on.

Is this quest bugges or something?

Honestly kind of relatable.

FUCK THE PHONEBOOTH PUZZLE WHY THE FUCK DOES IT RESET TOO

>>529429938
i think it was the opposite, the lion hopepogged when he heard about guilliman

>>529430287
During the heresy Bobby G kicked the Lion out of his makeshift imperium for being too autistic.

>>529431289
yes, but I only like passionate tanned women

Is part of the reason Seelah is so boring because she's not actually an owlcat original character?

>>529432518
Frankly it's cope, people say that Paizo limits how they handle 'iconics" but that didn't really stop them for the others.

How old is Jimmy exactly? He says he made himself look younger but he looks like he's in his lkate 40s

>>529432518

Yes

>>529431556
Jimmy's jaw is natural. Only one of his eyes is artificially grown

>>529432518
Seelah is boring because she is le jolly negro, that's all

>>529432518
No, Amiri was fine so that really isn't an excuse for Seelah being so mediocre.

How does ageing work in 40K? There's clearly some kind of anti-ageing treatment available, and some people are many hundreds of years old, but most of them don't look particularly young.

>>529434223
But he's white

>>529434302
It works normally, but being exposed to the warp, toxic fumes, harsh living conditions make you age faster (just like irl). Rejuve is only available to the rich. And then there are biomancers and techpriests that have their own tricks for staying young and living long

>>529434302
cybernetic enhancements (mars' preferred method but even they don't live forever, the exceptions like cawl are essentially inhuman in multiple ways)
essentially gene therapy kind of procedures, rejuvenation therapy
biomancers can reverse their own aging somewhat, and being a psyker oftentimes inherently makes you longer lived
humans get to around 400-500 years old max usually with some exceptions, but there's no real cure for aging, even space marines get old (primarchs are debatable because while the lion got OLD, guilliman didn't, so who knows how it works with them)

>>529434354
He's S*rb coded

Que?

>>529435010
Oh, sorry I thought you were talking about Solomorne

>>529434302
There are many different methods of life extension. The most common method is simply called "rejuvenat treatments" and basically restore some vigor to the subject, but it has diminishing returns and doesn't really do anything to restore their mind, so they can still suffer a lot of mental ailments even if their body is technically healthy. And often these treatments don't reverse outward signs of aging, so the cosmetic aspect is a whole separate thing.

>>529434991
You just can't, ok?

Why can't I do necromancy to rez Vyatt like I did for Galfrey? I should at least have the option.

>>529435440

Vyatt is probably a bigger whore than Jae. You don't want that.

How do you self ignite "smoothly" to get these kind of benefits? I know about the cape in footfall that makes you immune to burning, do you need something else for the combo to work?

>>529436969
based

>>529437036
It's pointless. It's actually a net DPS loss to light yourself on fire, there's no reason to ever do it and combats do not last long enough to justify spending time taking that action.

>>529437036
If you're immune to burning that talent won't work, since you're, well, not burning

>>529437036
you don't
being immune to burning makes it impossible to use btw
like he said >>529437383 it's for igniting your fellow men like abelard so he can do more damage, as a psyker you already have other ways of dealing extra melee damage (necklace) if you're in melee
if you want it for the +1 PSY rating just use a fire grenade on yourself with grenadier and you're golden

>>529437704
That he can't sing, but a good dancer, and that he wears a white collarless shirt under his Inquisitorial jacket (hence the wife beater fanart)

>>529435736
I do want that. You're not the boss of me.

Scorcher of Souls on Hard was tough, I didn't rest after Hepzamirah/Baphomet just to see if I could manage it.
The lich power "Deadly Magic" is really powerful but there's a couple of issues I need to keep in mind:
1) if it's on and I cast something like Siphon Time, then the "no magic casting" affects everyone, companions and enemies alike.
2) it's only three rounds and it stays on so it's REALLY easy to just lose it all pointlessly.
3) I always forget to use it since it needs a bit of care to use and I have so many other things. But man is it powerful.
Scorcher of Souls starts at like 70 AC and his first round he sunbursts you, most likely blinding everyone. Second round is this Fire Storm/Sirocco combo that is absolutely devastating. I flew through Hepzamirah and her crew, basically everything here in Colyphyr mines, but this action by him takes out 3-4 people pretty much without recourse. Woljif has Seamantle, Daeran has a Ring of Evasion and pretty high Dex but my KC, Cam, and Nenio are essentially guaranteed to go down.
Not sure how I'd do it without Deadly Magic honestly. I suppose go rest up and pile on some fire immunity/resistance, communal stoneskin and hope for the best, even at the least getting to the downed KC with a raise dead/resurrect in time. Likely too far negative to come back with a single breath of life/inspiring recovery.
Whew, I'd say that's been the toughest fight so far in the game. AND now we get to level before heading back to the Nexus, fuck yeah.

Side note: I really fucking hate the way Dispelling works in this game. It's amazing to me that protections and stripping protections/debuffs is somehow 10x better in oldBG from 25 years ago. Is this an Owlcat thing or a PF thing?

>>529437779
>when I look up builds
Because they're made for fags like you who go WOWZA epic to the SCIENCE?? megabuff oneshot NO CAP??
Setting yourself on fire brings extra damage, which you don't really need as a psyker yourself if you're not making a video for sheep
As for what pyromancy itself does for melee, it gives you very good talents (along with access to psyker items from being a psyker obviously)

>>529437705
Never ever

>>529438010
What you do is you buff
Then you click
Buffclick

I agree with Kibbelah on most things, but not this one. They drugged him, which means he didn't consent to anything, which means it wasn't betrayal. He can't control what enters his bloodstream.

Now, with enough faith, you actually can. You can believe the poison doesn't affect you because the Emperor stops it from affecting you and that becomes true if you believe it hard enough, but that level of faith is not expected of some random naval officer, that's a Sororitas or living saint level of faith. So getting mad and calling him a betrayer because he's not supernatural is kind of silly.

But I'm trying to do a dogma playthrough which means I just click on the dogma option for the points.

>>529438307

>>529438307
You can't actually, that's called either being a psyker (therefore using psychic powers) or a miracle (direct influence from the emperor)
Altering reality is reserved for mass groupthink (which a single normal person could never match) or to psykers

>>529437962
nice. they should've asked if he's a moaner or did he masterbate to your character before getting with her. owlcat aren't prudes who would've ducked away from these questions

>>529438245
Well, that isn't really true, but I feel like you're the same exact person I've had this dead-end conversation with before.

>>529438394
So it's essentially the same in tabletop though? What I'm specifically referring to is how BG1&2 had all these tiers of spell protections and stripping.. Globe of Invulnerability for area effects, spell turning, remove magic, dispel, a whole number of others.
This made it pretty fun to figure out how to best approach stripping off protections, and felt like Cool Wizard Shit (tm). Just having a blanket "Dispel" is, by contrast, ... pretty shit. But that's how tabletop PF works as well?

>>529438806
>did he masterbate to your character before getting with her.
Of course he did

>>529438806
The've banned raztard for posting disgusting porn, so they probably would have banned you too for asking lewd things about jimmy

>>529438538
You're mistaken. Faith has real power in 40k and Sororitas regularly bring people back to life or bend bullets way from themselves by praying. You're right that it's a "miracle" in name, but you're wrong that it's reserved for large groups or just psykers. A single individual can have enough faith to ignore wounds, ignore injuries, set things on fire spontaneously, make their weapon do more damage, and drive ships by closing your eyes and letting the emperor steer. These things have all happened, and they're all happened when one individual believed so it's not a matter of numbers.

If you get shot, you can ignore the wound for as long as you believe the Emperor needs you to stay alive, and then you drop dead when your job is done. But this is only possible by people who have extreme faith, regular people who just sorta like the Emperor but don't truly believe can't do these things. It's locked behind being truly fanatical. Which is why you shouldn't hold it against some random officer that he didn't do this, it's not reasonable to expect. But it's a thing that is not based on reason.

>>529438806
>did he masterbate to your character before getting with her
He doesn't need to because he's a biomancer and can control his erections. Probably

>>529419230
Glory and Eisner are fucking babes. I need to replay it actually, I never got the achievement for Eisner's loyalty because I didn't talk to her after to wrap up the adventure. And I fucked up the useless tech dude's quest and got his girlfriend exposed. I didn't care about his ass because I was the tech master.

Honestly, it's so hard not to spec into hacking because that guy fucking sucks and I don't want him on the team

>>529439292
They did? I thought they loved him

>>529439517
They love his art but he's a legit schizo who has grossly misread the Yriliet romance.

Yriliet is not putting out and the only type of sex you're getting from a non druki is slow, methodical sex, no foreplay, no kissing, and no orgasms for her because space elves need psychic connection that you can't provide.

Do Eldar shit or are they too perfect for that? I can see some dumb shit being written about how they turn waste into psychic energy.

Then again, orks shit

Any art is good publicity. It's why DarkerGrey was so popular during WotR.

Personally I think his art is low brow, mediocre and quite frankly fanfiction of the worst kind. But it is art and it shows that they like the franchise.

>>529438806
Accirding to all the fanfiction that I've read, which is basically canon, the consensus seems to be that yes and yes

>>529440415
No, they're not psyker powers. There is a distinction between faith abilities and psyker powers. It sounds like you should read more recent lore because you're outdated.

A non-psyker can use faith abilities, and even people who are not saints or Sororitas can call upon them at-will if their belief is strong enough. The source of the power is the Emperor, not the warp. This is a fundamental aspect of the setting.

You might be confused due to the distinction that the Emperor's power is ultimately from the warp, but it would still be inaccurate to say that his followers are using the warp when they utilize their abilities, since the Emperor is the source now. The warp has made him into a powerful entity that affects the galaxy, even more so than he was when he was mortal and a psyker himself. He has become more than that as a result of the Imperium's belief in him. Faith affected reality.

Juvenat treatments exist, they can get you up to 200-300 years old. However they are only for the rich and powerful, basically RT-level people and their inner circle only. More importantly, the people who can afford such treatments usually lead very dangerous lives and don't get to live out their full lifespan.

It's an extreme DPS increase and the first reply is retarded.

What you want to do is play melee flame psyker and spend your first turn igniting yourself and using orchestrate flames to make the fire permanent. For the remainder of the fight you have +1 psy rating and every attack deals ignite damage. You will absolutely shred through enemies.

>>529438458
I paid her back for it though, I mentioned that Theodora probably destroyed Crudarach in front of the Crudarach survivors on Quetza Temer.

BG 1 and 2 use a different system from 3.5/PF.

>What the combat feels most like, is a card game, where you can build your deck the way you want and always draw the same opening hand, with that opening hand always being a one-turn-victory. So every single fight is exactly the same, it doesn't even feel like playing a game.

>They try to get around this by making fights with phases, or triggered immunities that force fights to take more than 1 round, but that's just lame.

>There are too many ways to do a million damage in one turn in this stupid combat system.

>To make it even worse, building characters and leveling is fucking boring as well. We have all these hundreds of talents are not only extremely specific, but also completely fucking pointless; I don't even really level 4 of my companions after act 3, because they never get to do anything anyway. I just pick whatever talent happens to be at the top of the list and go with that, it literally doesn't matter.

>The Pathfinder games are the same way; the combat is fucking boring, because you just do the same exact overpowered shit in every single fight. Just buff your OTK-guy and then OTK the entire screen. You got all these stats and talents and classes, and it doesn't matter; it's all a mirage, just completely pointless and a waste of your time to read or think about.

>The combat may as well only be there in these titles so that they don't get classified as point-and-click games.

Pretty sure the game's recommendations are often stupid.

I wanna smooch her.

So what has changed with RT in the DLC?
Anything to actually warrant ANOTHER full playthrough?
I already did Dogmatic and Heretic runs. I'm pretty sure Iconoclast is just Dogmatic with fewer dialogue options and the ability to save the Korn possessed guy instead of the crazy bitch.

>>529444572

You're a combat capable man but your cool dogchadbro is also there doing it's thing
As it stands things are kinda weird

>>529449723
It's a Lex Imperialis thing. They've completely changed that encounter

>>529450369
You get a new one each time

What slur am I supposed to use against Jae?
I'm not a skilled enough racist to be able to discern what she's supposed to be.

>>529450757
does the game even allow racism?

>>529449563
>no thrill of passion in his touch
Blackedxisters... It's over

>>529450757
She's supposedly arab or whatever but I call her pakistani

>>529447573
When games are about stacking traits to make crazy combos its hard to properly balance a difficulty curve because you can't develop into a corner making only the batshittiest of batshit work.
The problem with rogue trader though is that the line is so razor thin that a couple levels mark the entire difference between a fight being nearly impossible witout extensive cheese or a total curbstomp without trying.

>>529450757

>>529449808
Cute. Now I want Jimmy dance even MORE. OWLKEEEEEEEEEEEKS

She's Persian, and they hate being called Arabs

She is not a real noble, just treat her like a common serf like she deserves

>>529450667
Yeah, I noticed.
Took out the mines as well. The autogun Arbitrator missing with 40 bullets against a cultist was amazing

>>529451227
That won't work, she'll just slide off that by saying
>Oh shereen, of course my radiance could not compare to yours. Compared to a Rogue Trader such as yourself, I am humbled to a mere servant of the Exalted One.

>>529451670
Oh man dogmachud trader isn't gonna like that

Where did Owlcat find the budget as manpower for the expanse?

Why did my death cult give me a waifu?
Is this some sort of power play?

>>529452372
short term baby making cal lead to more death, they are thinking long term.

>so Yrliet, now that we're soulmates, will you tell me about life on the craftworld?
>what?? No! Why would I EVER discuss that with a mon-keigh!
>Ok let me go into toybox and flip your switch
>....what were we talking about? Oh yes of course we can talk about my early life elantach!
Half the things people hate her for are just flags that don't trigger due to owlkek spaghetti code

I like that the DLC has a few of "Abelard say X" chances heh

I just got the psycho assassin. Should I rush her personal questline now if I want to have freak children with her?

>>529453151
No let it progress naturally. It's well paced. Don't be alarmed if it seems to slow down, the very end tends to come near the end of the game

>>529453230
OK, so when should I try to find her cult or w/e? She wants me to go into the shit people portion of my ship.

>>529453307
Might as well do that now. The lower decks are interesting and that sets off the whole DLC quest line

>>529453307
You can recruit Pasqal and Heinrix first.
Just do it before they throw ap arade for you

>>529400298
>Lex has a bigger playercount than Void
That's because Void was so good. It created hype for the next DLC

>>529453307
Doesn't really matter, you can do it all in the next chapter just fine

fool's face, spoilered

>>529454607
Though without spoiling anything in addition I must say holy shit, I didn't expect the feudal plot to go like this, imho blows a lot of VS content out of the water so far

>>529454607
Holy shit it's a fallout reference.

>you can't even buff the eagle because it flies off
They made this thing bad on purpose, there's no way

>>529452353
Some russian oligarch probably has a son into the expanse

>>529454780
Definitely. It's great. My only reservation about it is that it feels like it would fit better in a wfrp setting. Maybe it was their way to throw wfrpfags a bone

>>529455053
Nobody fucking cares about expanse in russia. Very few people even know about it. Owlkeks were probably going around begging property holders to make a game for them and expanse niggers were the only ones who agreed

>>529454607
Trickster chads got a new wotr portrait

>>529454607
Hohohohoh hehehehe hihihihihi

>>529413507
Rogue trader would be a great setting for a show. There's enough variety for interesting self-contained episodes, and it's more than just armies smashing into each other.
The actual Rogue Trader plot could be adapted into a show very well
>Ep 1: To Reclaim What Was Lost
Intro, Kunrad's betrayal, meet Abelard, Argenta, and Idira. Probably introduce Kibber here too
>Ep 2: Encounters at Rykad
Pasqal and Jimmy, maybe rescuing Evayne Winterscale if that character is going to be used later
>Ep 3: The Final Dawn
Cassia's station, and return to Rykad Minoris for the parade and the big battle to end chapter 1
>Ep 4: Footfall
Jae and the rest of the side characters of Footfall station. Might not be enough meat here for a full episode
>Ep 5: Elantach
Change of scenery to a jungle planet, recruit Yrliet and encounter a subject governor for the first time
>Ep 6: Shield and Shadow
Kibber centric episode where you venture into the lower decks, beginning of the genestealer plot

Now you have a full cast and can fill out the rest of the first season with sidequest planets. The Halo Device would make a good ep by itself. Encounter Marazhai from time to time being a nuisance.
>Final episode of Season 1: The Trial
Return to Dargonus and meet Calzone, thus setting up the arc for season 2. And you know what happens next

>S2 Ep 1: The Dark City
Self explanatory, but the have some material for the crew left back on the ship, maybe they're trying to find you. Recruit Ulfar
Rest of S2 is more sidequest planets, but also receiving assignments from Calzone

I would cast this fatass from Season 2 of Severance as Ulfar. He's already huge and Icelandic which suits the character.

>>529454607
One more for the clown troupe

Now that I think of it, their ships are destroyed, and they are leaving with a shitty shuttle
How the fuck does my voidship not see them

>i'm afraid my rogues are too powerful for you adventurer

>>529457328
>Is everyone in my crew an incompetent buffoon and the whole thing falls apart the nanosecond I am not at the helm?
Yes

>>529455952
Some things have to be tinkered for sure, it has a good cast but is not show material as is.

>>529457328
>Is everyone in my crew an incompetent buffoon
You know it

>>529457798
>>529457461
At least they are not Galfrey...

>>529457328
Yes, except Danrok. Unfortunately he's not in charge of your augurs, only of your finances

>>529457560
I would reduce the necrons to a secondary threat, maybe for a two part episode, and promote Uralon the Jobber and his bird demon to be the final threats. Full circle, start with the chaos, end with chaos

>>529459282
I would promote him to Seneschal after Abelard retires

takes the heat for my heretical actions

>>529460021
Actually relateable, I knew people like that

>>529459295
You also have to make Marazhai less of a complete villain, for example making him a rival of whoever sacked Dargonus, if you want to include him in the main cast, which would make sense
I'd also add more rogue trader vs rogue trader realpolitik, we don't get nearly enough intrigue against Chorda and Winterscale.

>>529450805
Against xenos and chaos worshipers

>>529454945
Should have been a ravenBVLL

Playing Kingmaker and which Eldritch Scion Magus is better, a dragon bloodline with dragon disciple dip or going full Magus with Abyssal bloodline?

>>529460862
>You also have to make Marazhai less of a complete villain, for example making him a rival of whoever sacked Dargonus, if you want to include him in the main cast, which would make sense
Nah, that would be lame. He's good the way he is. You just have to present an insentive to keep him for longer than commoragh. For example you could make a deal with him that after you escape he helps you find and put down the archont of that toher kabal which is beneficial both to him and to you, since he gets his revenge for being played for a fool, and you reduce the number of drukeks in the universe as well as taking your own revenge

>>529457328
>Is everyone in my crew an incompetent buffoon and the whole thing falls apart the nanosecond I am not at the helm?
Idira does pretty good on her own.

>>529460862
Yeah agreed on Marzipan. You could play up his comical side if desired, like Gaius Baltar in BSG
> intrigue against Chorda and Winterscale.
Oh yeah audiences would love this. It's really missing from the game.

It hurts bros. .

Both void shadows and lex imperialis finish in act 4 right? I can just do all the quests in act 2 without worrying of finishing them immediately?

>>529462328
It's because it differs depending on your original class. The servo skull is much better in the hands of an officer than the other classes, so someone who wasn't an officer would say the skull sucks. Most people agree the raven is the best because there are some insane biomancer and diviniation abilities to transmit through it but I've honestly come to respect the servo skull after playing with it some more. It provides cover, deflection, healing, and transmits officer abilities through it to everyone in the aoe, and if you want to use it offensively it can float over to enemies and make them all shoot each other.

Right now my personal ranking, after having them all in my party and being level 33, is that the skull and the raven are amazing, and the dog and the eagle fall behind a bit.

Right now I'm a noble-officer-strategist doing the usual tried and true buffs on Kibellah/Argenta and Jae is actually my servo skull user, and I find myself actually excited for my next playthrough where I will try the servo skull for myself as Noble-Officer-Overseer to gain the unique overseer player character content.

The dog is by far my biggest disapointment. In theory it's the one that does the most damage on paper but I guess owlcat felt that might be a balance issue if one does real direct damage while the others are mostly utility, but that made him fall behind. meanwhile the raven gives your entire team aoe psychic powers which directly segues into your team killing everybody and being unkillable. But because it's not the raven itself doing 200 damage it's ok.

kek you can get a butler, spoiler for quest

If I'm going full shotgun chad should I be using shields in my offhand after picking up the talent that lets you use two handed shotguns with one hand?

>>529463240

>>529463321
And they actually give buffs, but only for the next combat.

>>529463468
If you're an arbitrator there's no reason not to, it's essentially just a free chance not to take damage... wait can you dual-wield two-handed shotguns? That might be something funny to think about

Yo what did you need to do to summon governor Vyatt in void shadows? Remember people posting that

>>529463280
Yeah, I'm playing officer and while I came to like the Eagle I sometimes wish I took servoskulls because they are obviously the intended pet for the class. But birds are just so cool. I do wonder what sort of interactions you get with other pets though. Maybe I'll respec out of curiosity just to check them out. Also they bring you random items when you talk to them in the office

>>529463468
Early on it's only a benefit, later with the right gear and talents you can dual wield two shotguns and start outputting some pretty nasty damage. But if you want to stick with shotgun and shield that's fine too since some shields have some really good effects.

>>529463515
Ferrus truly was living the dream.

Why is heresy le bad? its literally the only way to save the imperium from the corpse emperor.

Why

>>529462293
So he's worth it yay

Reminder every single female romance option in Rouge trader is a cuckqueen because they don't care if you fuck jostica.

>>529464284
>save the imperium from the corpse emperor.

Damn, I wonder who could be behind this cogitator...

I'm confused. Why are our crew acting like they had no idea the great rift happened? When does this game take place?

>>529465426
Right around the time the galaxy gets split in two, it's still new

>>529465426
It has JUST happened, so yeah, they're new to it

>>529465520
>>529465624
So nobody here knows girlyman is back?

>>529465756
Of course not. How would they? They're on the othe side of the rift

Once achilleas warns me of a xeno attack, is there an actual time limit/ warp jump limit or does he claim urgency but there is actually none?
Because I can't be assed to reach that place now, I wanted to explore a bit.

>>529465756
Yes

>>529465925
>Once achilleas warns me of a xeno attack, is there an actual time limit/ warp jump limit or does he claim urgency but there is actually none?
Techincally there is no time limit, however if you take too long the npcs will whine that you took too long. It doesn't actually change anything mechanically or narratively from what i could tell though

>>529464954
I don't know what you're talking about I just want the best for humanity.

Kibellah may steal the spotlight for melee damage dealer but Jimmy still crunches people. This talent is really cool.

Femrts have a tendency of corrupting pure hearted men

>>529467471
I like using jimmy because it's funny to see everyone running around with comically large arms.

It's not corruption, it's sexual healing

>"I'm not bothered by you sneaking into my room. You're welcome to visit me to ask questions whenever you want. Did you want something?"
>"I don't need permission to enter rooms monkey. Where I come from people walk freely between rooms. This place is just a speck of dust, a tiny metal prison in the galaxy anyway so I wouldn't want to come here"
It's actually crazy how much of a pointless bitch she is even when you're accommodating and patient and even polite.

>>529468706
The comically large arms stay ON

>>529468949
>Where I come from people walk freely between rooms.
I'm pretty sure that's a lie too, not to mention the good old saying "When in Rome do as Romans do"

>>529468949
Just kill her

>>529468949
And somehow she has a ton of simps

>>529468949
This exact conversation was the straw that broke the camel's back. Take her away, Jimmy

>another group of Eldar bring their craftworld to punish the humans
>that craftworld is also destroyed
Holy fuck these jobbers will never learn. I almost feel bad for them.

Hold up. You can actually say "Oh that? I inherited it from my predecessor." Which means she knew you didn't do it. She makes the deal with the deldar even knowing you didn't do it.

holy shit

>>529470030
No, no, no, no! You see, she didn't betray you. She's just a complete abject retard.

>>529470030
Yep, that's my wife

>>529469920
>>that craftworld is also destroyed
It doesn't get destroyed but it enters a pointless war it can not win and loses more of their dying out people whereas humanity quickly rebuilds because they actually know that to procreate benis needs to go into bagina

>>529470030
>still going off of memes from when the game released

Yrliet Defense Force ACTIVATE!

>>529470030
>She makes the deal with the deldar even knowing you didn't do it.
The deal in question does not involve you getting captured though
The deal is just that they will tell her who dun it

When kroot butt?

>>529413460
With an arm that weak and withered, sure

Are mounts in WotR kinda busted?

>>529470564
I’m going to join the Yrliet defence force because the retards who hate her annoy me more than she does

>>529470030
She AGREES TO A MEETING WITH MARAZHAI because HE SPECIFICALLY says he HAS INFORMATION ABOUT HER COMPATRIOTS
Why do so many retarded niggers refuse to read the words on the screen, you ride her there and you all get ambushed and captured instead

>>529471047
yeah you dont get hit it all when riding one so you can just ignore AC entirely go full glass canon and build your mount as a tank

>>529471223
Because anon hasn’t seen that yet and is already mad about the shitposts he read before he’s even gotten there.

>>529471047
They essentially allow you to build a pure tank (your mount) and a pure damage guy (you) so kinda sure

>>529463247
Yep

>>529470030
In the beta release, she didn't believe you
>Come on now Elantach, I'm not stupid
In the current release, she believes you but thinks she can manipulate Marazhai into giving her info about Crudarach. She doesn't mean for you to get captured
However a ton of lines still react to the now-deprectated beta storyline, do Act 3 is quite muddled and self-contradictory

>>529473820
>manipulate Marazhai
She doesn't have anything to manipulate him with not to mention her peanut brain

>>529473820
Remember when the game came out and a bunch of people got tricked into thinking that you could avoid the beta version of the scene by finding some secret room or something.

>>529474054
Well she realised that afterwards
At first she thought she had him completely under control

>>529474462
Lol I don't remember the secret room rumour
I do remember a lot of people thinking they had to get a secret ending to the Lost Eldar quests

How many skills can a character realistically max out in Rogue Trader?

>>529465925
The game definitely keeps track but I don't know the specifics of what actually changes. Act 1 has a similar system for which of the rykad planets you go to first and that actually does have differences so I assume it does make a difference here too but I've never waited to test what they are. I always hurry.

>>529474476
I don't understand how she could possibly believe that. She had nothing on him, and she had nothing he would have wanted (to her knowledge that is). Once again we arrive to the conclusion that the only explanation is that she is utterly retarded - like, drool coming out of the mouth retarded - becasue the game does not offer any other possibility. And it's all thanks to retarded rewrites. God, I hate redditors so much it's unreal

>>529474616
>Lol I don't remember the secret room rumour
They just mistook the secret room you unlock with the heretic choice as fundamental to her questline (it's not)

>>529475094
well
you sacrifice her soul to slaanesh in it

>>529474946
She's pretty inexperienced. Marazhai is way older and more mature than she is. He could easily trick her into doing whatever he wants while making her feel like it's her idea
>You know what would be funny, cousin
>When we go to meet your Crudarach comrades
>Bring your human friends along
>But don't tell them! Humans love surprises

>>529474946
Reddit post

>>529475336
like how you can reach lvl 3 heretic half way though act 2, so your ship starts oozing blood and shit but feel the need to hid the altar ina secret room. And everybody is like "This is fine"

>>529471223
She still should have known better than to trust a murder rapist elf, your waifu is a retard

>>529475816
As the story goes, she didn't trust him, but she thought she was smarter than him.
She might also have thought her Elantach would beat the shit out of the deldar if they tried anything, like had happened every single other time they ran into Marazhai

>She's pretty inexperienced.
hurr durr. KILL yrliettards, nobody trusts the deldar

>>529476118
See >>529476096
She literally says "of course I knew he was lying" but she thought she could handle him, especially with the rogue trader who had effortlessly kicked Marzipan's ass every time they'd met previously
She thought bringing you along was her ace up her sleeve

>>529476885
hurr durrr Yrliet is a young dumb little girl, she also fucks me every night btw

I just got DESTROYED by Jocastam

>>529477438
She is objectively the best romance, she just immediately gives you sex and does whatever you want without question.

>>529477605
Is it just once? Or any time

>>529477139
You can at least admit you were wrong and shit on her for the actual retarded thing she did instead of the thing you made up in your head

>>529477975
It doesn't help that owlshart only modified the bare minimum
So later in Cumrag you have
>You could at least have told me what you were doing
>I'm sorry elantach ;_; but if you knew where I was getting my orders from you'd have been mad at me
What orders lol. Makes no sense in the current story. I think originally she was meant to be a deldar spy from the start

WHEN ARE YOU FAGGOTS GOING TO MAKE AN OWLCAT GENERAL?! FUCK OFF!!!!

Man fuck that ghoul room. Cleaving shot really came in handy. Decided to pick Azata. Actually wanted to pick trickster and just see the Azata reactions and a dialogue but I accidentally saved over my backup and would have to repeat the citadel dungeon.

>>529478903
poast about what you're currently playing

>>529477897
Just once, but it's implied you can do it again, owlkeks were just too lazy to add a sex on demand dialogue option to her

lol you can't shoot from up here. The half cover ramparts block los. So you send your shooting characters up to the high ground then owlcat laughs at you

>>529479381
Something must have gone wrong during development because they obviously wanted to utlize the high/loiw ground meme for compbat but nothing came out of it, so the terrain is still flat for all intents and purposes so you get dumb shit like bullets curving around elevations to reach the target

>>529477975
NOO you can't be mean to my waifu!!

>>529479381
elevation doesn't mechanically exist in any owlcat game, it seems. kibellah, or any bladedancer, can still use death from above to get all the way up to the sniper tower on rykad minoris. what you're essentially trying to shoot through is a wall

>>529481947
Farquad. No, we've been spared his idiocity. Also he's been banned

>>529481947
Farquaad?
I think he doesn't like 40k so he fucked off when Rogue Trader became the hot new thing.

There was no way to save him. He died before any of our characters went. He got one-shot by their pistol. I think perhaps some things are not written with grimdark unfair in mind since he's probably not supposed to die in literally one shot after an enemy rolls to go first.

Or perhaps he just stands up and starts talking after the fight even though it says dead.

>>529482654
He'll get better since his survival here is quintessencial for moving the story along

>>529482364
>been banned

>>529482937
He's been banned many times but always came back by buying a new vpn. I think at one point he either gave up or ran out of money. Or vpn services lmao. Anyway I haven't seen him in months

I like in the beta discord people were complaining about Yrliet's stupid betrayal and the devs said something about it'll make more sense when the full game was out
>it didn't

>>529483623
>>529482937
Retard tourists, most bans are for 3 days. Stop embarrassing yourselves and stay on topic.
That is, crpgs, not 'thread personalities.'

>help our tortured and dying comrade from the brink of death
>he actually manages to get some intel from the attackers since he understands a bit of their language and gains a useful lead and this also only happened to him because he went back to his office after the attack in order to bravely burn documents
>"heh....you monkies are so easy to fool. You practically deserved this given how inept your kind are"
This character is crazy. This hero went above and beyond the capabilities and bravery of an average person and she's actually taking the opportunity to say pointless racist shit that doesn't serve the situation at all it's literally just chiming in to victim blame him because he's such an inept monkey so of course this happened to him. I'm getting pretty sick of this.

>>529483941
oh anon
it gets better

>>529483623
He would always post gay porn randomly. Deserved.

>>529483941
I think sister argenta and idira are the only ones who try to be nice to people. Everyone else has something unkind to say about everyone

>>529483941
She somehow attracts the strongest, most delusional simps. I have no idea how.

Some upcoming games that have demos (know of any others?):

Banquet for Fools
Swordhaven
Sector Unknown
Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon
Necromancer's Tale

Play one, screenshot and blog your experience, /crpgg/.

>>529484448

>>529483941
Officially she ends up respecting and admiring humans if you push her in the right direction
She also learns that Eldar are stupid assholes

>>529485269
No spoilers for anons first playthroughs you dunce.

>>529484672
/crpgg/ is now just 40k tards who at best put up with the crpg format, best to wait until they've had their fill and find whatever next dangles in their face

>>529484416
Jae and Abelard aren't that bad
Abelard is visibly disturbed by some of Heinrix's interrogations and Jae balks at the idea of the administratum guy turning himself into a servitor

How much longer until solasta 2?

>>529484672
>Sector Unknown
Might be cool but looks a bit esl

>>529485849
Oh yeah that's true, Abelard has a kind word for most people. Even Marzipan a bit.

>>529486013
Thanks for your really fascinating exploration

There are 5 deldar corpses in Achille's room so good for him.

Including Santa Clause here trying to come down the chimney

Is this new for Lex ? I don't recall this

>>529486156
That's fine! Here's another
>Necromancer's Tale
Might be cool

So in 40k is all the grim dark rape just left out and implied like in the black company?

>>529487839

Do Pentiment next
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b8V_M2fNCVw

More fun discoveries with that electric discharge sword. The enemy receives a stack for each point of damage and retains those stacks forever, and discharges the stacks regardless of what kills them. Kibellah is currently all the way on the other side of the room killing the beastmasters, but she just killed the rogue trader who was by the throne because an enemy Kib hit last turn died to damage from Cassia. Kib's 300 lightning stacks killed the RT even though she didn't deal the killing blow to the charged enemy, was on the other side of the room, and the charges were from the previous round. This sword is pretty fun and adds entertaining gameplay because it's actually rather dangerous.

>>529488458
Pentiment review:
Looks mildly interesting. Apparently I bought this? No recollection of doing so. 5/5

>>529488598
"Rapscallion" is not a job. This entire "rogue" archetype was a colossal mistake

>>529488598

Neither the Emperor nor the Ruinous Powers would condone rape.
Dark Eldar don't rape either because their dicks can't get hard anymore

Hmmm....

>>529488798
Rapscallion work is work, chud

>>529488798
Being a specific type of criminal is a job, just not a legal one.

>game thats in a grim dark setting
>not a single rape scene
What gives?

Is Look Outside a CRPGG?

do you guys recommend the wasteland games? I saw the next game the devs are working on and it made me interested in their previous work.

>>529489294
see >>529489003
In the DAoT, mankind evolved beyond the need for rape, and never subsequently re-invented it

>>529488458
>Walk in the footsteps of Andreas Maler, a master artist
Fixed main character = not a serious RPG

>>529489391
The combat in them is really fun but I barley remember the story for either of them, not that the story is bad I just remember it being a solid 7/10

rogueshart wouldn't make my top 50

>>529489294
Marzipan and the other deldar rape you

Faerun is legitimately more grim dark than 40k because it actually includes all the violent torture and rape.

>>529489391
no nothing inexile has done was really great, but its not like kotor where i have to warn some one not to get tricked into a big piece of shit

Easiest decision of my life. The representative of the most holy Inquisition, and the representative of the Adepta Sorotitas. We are a Dogmatic dynasty.

Abelard, Pasqal, and Kibellah are good choices too, because I like the Navy, the Admech, and the death cults, but Jimmy and Argenta have to be my choice.

>>529489716
Zero proof of this

name 5 faerun rapes

>>529489391
I enjoyed Wasteland 3 a lot. I didn't play Wasteland 2 before and don't feel I missed anything.
Tips:
Don't do "hack of all trades" at all, everyone should push into one primary thing and a secondary thing almost exclusively.
You get recommended initial 2 characters but there's no reactivity, feel very free to make your own from scratch.
In retrospect it's kinda 'short' but that's also me wanting everything to be BG1&2/WotR tier. It's solid, and I felt good on finishing it, There's pretty decent choices and routes you can approach or deal with things. I will play it again someday.
I've heard Wasteland 2 is less good, but I can't speak on it.

>>529489793
I think you get a colony buff depending on your choice. Not a big one but it helps. They're all pretty good

>>529489793
Are you the sister larper. Why are you acting like this is your first time playing

>>529489793
Based, I always do what Argenta tells me to do.

I just executed another heretic on my ship.

>>529489926

>>529489581
Incorrect opinion.

>>529489880
Jaheira grooms you which is morally equivalent to rape.

>>529489752
Wha's wrong with kotor? Don't you like OGL 3.5 in the only place not corrupted by capitalism?

>>529490049
Complacency is oddly named. It's more like Morale

>>529490081
Hot

I want to be groomed by more mommies. .

Does this happen in any other games?

>>529489793
For me, it's Abelard and Jimmy. The later is self-explanatory, and Dadbelard to show respect to my own vassals. And to put the Drivestem down to Holy Terra which is always a good thing.

>>529489880
Read any book by Ed greenwood except the eliminster books (in those he just gets groomed from childhood by mystra)

>>529490049
why you type up all this crap up for a children's game a 8 year old could beat? do owlshitters think reading 20+ feats per level up makes a game difficult?

>>529490239
Kotor2
In Demonicon you are groomed into fucking your sister iirc.

>>529490049
I like maxing out complacency because it lets you shit out projects in one turn

>>529490048
>I always do what Argenta tells me to do.
-83 PF

>>529490179
many early 3D games have shit gameplay, shit story, and look like shit. The three (3) shits. no one in good faith recommends left clicking through empty hall ways to your next marvel quip where gameplay is left clicking on npcs and picking one of three feats. its just all people trying to defend themselves for liking that shit when they were 13

>>529490819
profit is temporary

>>529490883
I like kotor because it's comfy
I dislike kotor 2 because it's uncomfy

>>529490883
You just described 95% of crpgs. Maybe you don't like crpgs. That fair, it is a niche genre after all.

>>529491662
Most of the KotOR gameplay is holding W and running from one side of the empty map to the other.

>>529478917
Buffed myself and greased the motherfucker. Shot me to lvl 10.

Assassin or bounty hunter yrliet?

>>529491758
Again, that is probably true for most CRPGS. NWN is beloved by many but it's just a linear series of corridors that connect rooms that sometimes have monsters in them.

>>529492316
Assassin sniper just doesn't work

>>529490458
>Demonicon
Didn't they pussy out and make the plot twist her being adopted?

>Kotor II
Would have killed for a Kreia romance tbqh with you.

>>529492316
I used assassin and she did fine, she was routinely oneshotting demons, traitor marines etc. She'd often get an auto second shot after killing someone
Bounty hunter just seemed like a pain in the ass to me but apparently people make it work very well

>>529468949
for me it was fumbing her with her shallow ass philosophy discussion
like this whole surface level "deep" conversation about how everything in the universe matters doesn't matter to her bc i said
>You're pretty, and i like you. :)

her in game face looks way better than her portrait.

>>529492985
I would have liked a better ending for Kreia where for eg she dissolves like Obi Wan and gives you guidance as you fight Atris as the final boss

>>529492985
>Didn't they pussy out and make the plot twist her being adopted?
Who knows. It a miracle i even played that game. It gave the word jank a whole new meaning. Still best BS romance is in BG2.

>>529493063
Rape.

>>529493206
It would have been cool if the final boss was influenced based on who you supported through the game and how.

Are there any games out there that do that?

>>529493331
>Still best BS romance is in BG2.
Based and true.

>>529468949
>REEE YOU CAN'T (ACCURATELY) DESCRIBE MY SHIP AS SMALL AND MADE OF METAL

>>529493589
>Originally, the light side and dark side endings differed from each other more significantly than in the final game.
>One possible ending featured Kreia's redemption and Atris's total shift to the dark side, which culminated in the scene where Atris attacked the player wearing a black robe and claimed that she, not Kreia, was Darth Traya.
>Her dark side model remained in the PC version of the game and can appear in the main menu if the CurSithLord option is set to 1 in swkotor2.ini

I did the quest for the heartless escort ship and chose that option. In my voidship menu it says 'heartless escorting' or whatever.

Yet when I enter this battle it's nowhere to be seen. Do I need to activate it or something?

>>529493851
Looks like it's broken

What happens if you fall to the dark side but you don't have any dark clothing to change into?

>>529493851
It doesn't show up until act 4, I had a random conversation with Danrok where he says it's all repaired and stuff
If you're in act 4 then it's broken

Other than Owlcat stuff, what are your favourite Slavjank rpgs

>>529494089
Atom RPG

>>529493975
i dont think im act 4, i just took up my rightful throne on dargonus about level 22

stupid mechanic, it definitely didnt say anything about it not showing up, the exact opposite in fact

>>529494151
>stupid mechanic
That's owlcat for you

>>529493938
A tragedy really.

>>529494151
No Act 4 is after , you'll know it because your advisors tell you that everything is on fire

I also did most of Solomorne's in Act 2, chose to keep the Heartless as an escort, and it wasn't mentioned again until Act 4 where they specifically mention it finally being repaired and it shows up in battle

I hate yilert because she is a elder.

>>529494574
i killed her for being a xenos, now i have some stupid soul stone stuck in my inventory and it cant go in cargo

>>529493851
How are you finding the ship combat generally?
I never found an escort much use except as a distraction

>>529494642
absolutely aids, but i just won a battle against 2 aeldari in foulstone because both ships moved next to my torpedos which i promptly blew up

i dont really like how ships do ring around the rosey with you

>>529468949
I think she's trying to make you understand how big a craftworld is and how terrible it is for one to go missing
>is your entire world contained in this ship
>well no
>mine was

>>529494808
I found it ass too for quite some time, then I started to get the hang of it as I gained powers. There's one that lets you shoot twice, another that lets you cast a warp storm on a target, a boarding party ability. various maneuvering abilities. It gets better.
Strongly recommend the "repair for half scrap" ability

I hate yilert because im a dumb monkey and i seethe at the superior eldar.

>>529494808
I usually moved right the fuck away from the battle and sent in torpedoes or fighters

I like Yrliet because I'm a superior human and it's nice to see xeno scum angry at our superiority. She's been pretty helpful so far, but she'll get a bullet in the head if she tries to do something fun

I hate Kibellah because she talked back to me on one occasion

>>529495037
If they are supposedly superior why don't they have shit as cool as the God Emperor, Space Marines or the Adeptus Custodes?

>>529495317
They used to but they had too much ass sex and lost it all, as well as ruining the old Federation of Mankind

Sorry I can't take a group of people who's name translates to "custodian guards" seriously.

The adeptus custodes do it for free btw.

>Astra Militarum
>Aeldari
What are the other new pozz names?

>>529495317
Custodes aren't cool lol
Imperial Guard is cool

>>529495935
wouldnt jannies be the administratum, and the custodes are the mods?

Should I be getting Greater Beast Totem even if I want to use a weapon? its only useful if I'm unarmed right?

>>529496168
Custodes job is to mop up the Imperial Sanctum, do some dusting, and wipe the imperial Ass
Sounds like janitor work to me

>>529493825
I mourn the loss of what could have been.

I deserve a vistenza gf irl

>>529496905
was giving her a portrait really necessary though

>>529497173
Yes

>vistenza

>put a big titty girl in a corset and suddenly people are willing to tolerate chaos worship

>>529497173
Unavoidable

>>529497315
this chick should have been the noble officer companion instead of princess moeblob
she could have been a heretic like Idira that you can either corrupt further or help to redeem

I'm pretty much a chaotic neutral Rouge irl.

>>529497704
she wasnt that much of a heretic though just a little retarded

>>529497952
She literally had a back room with actual fucking demons running around.

>>529496723
Neat

Vistenza would probably let you have pitty sex with her if you begged hard enough and I find that really hot.

>>529471714
where does the new arbites origin rank on the drip scale

>>529497989
the nobles on Janus had been corrupted for a while but Vistenza only fully joined their cult recently
they convinced her by telling her that offerings to Slaanesh would help her control the planet's unstable biosphere and produce more crops for your dynasty
if you convince her to repent and help you, her handmaiden shanks her and runs off before you can do anything

>>529497704
The worst part is they're being tricked by the corset too

>>529497770
>princess moeblob
Finally someone else sees through Cassia's flim-flam facade

>>529498290
Would you mind writing an excessive note on the harmful influence of corsets with illustrations?

>>529498290
She is a noble, she definitely bio modded her self to have an insanely sexy body.

More like Vistenza Gyatt

Jae would probably let you have pitty sex with her if you begged hard enough and I find that really hot.

tau companion in one year

Yrliet would probably let you watch Marazhai have sex with her if you tolerated her bullshit hard enough and I find that really hot.

Ember would probably let you have pitty sex with her if you begged hard enough and I find that really hot.

>>529499092
im surprised there isnt because of how woke and nu40k le epic 'we are all together in le harmony le reddit armee is here' they are

>>529449519
>Emperor tells him repeatedly that he is no god
Emperor was denying duck test and got mad on Lorgar for not playing along. The funniest part is that Emperor was completely inconsistent with it, allowed cogs to believe he's the embodiment of Omnissiah, destroyed Lorgar's city after 100 years for worshipping him but still didn't remove cultists advisors in the first place.
>got kicked out of the rebellion for being a backstabbing retard, is so scared of his emo brother that he hides inside a tower like a princess
old info, he's been active since the great rift opening.
>the imperium still runs despite his bullshit
Imperium literally adapted his bullshit ideas. Winning != flawlessly completing all tasks. Lorgar won because he survived and his truth about the faith shaped the Imperium.
>a bunch of backstabbers that only stick together because everyone else hates them even more than they hate each other.
Literally the only traitor legion that didn't split into warbands.

>>‘The Word Bearers won.’ Telemachon was on his hands and knees in the dust, blood trickling from his unmoving silver mouth. He laughed and heaved and vomited and laughed, speaking between dragged breaths and violent convulsions. ‘The Word Bearers won. They eat dirt and drink shame. They chant prayers to the unwanted truth through bloodied lips. They lost everything. And yet they still won.’

>quoting BL slop
Not canon in the slightest

>>529499919
cry harder

It seems so obvious in hindsight, but having Jae and Heinrix recruited before you actually do most of the footfall stuff has obviously interjections from them.
This scene became even funnier

>>529500843

>>529500843
Definitely. A bit of a metagaming, but I dig it. They probably did the content in clusters and then united it all in an afterthought. For example, there are still some reactions from jimmy in act 1 for the 'normal' state of the prison world, and maybe at Cassia's too, when it's technically impossible to achieve w/o toybox.

>>529499212
What the fuck are you talking about

Purge soul sucks ass.

lol

>>529501230
It's worse than the staff is the problem. It's good when you deliver it through the sword.

Owlcat hates black woman so no, hopefully the kween in dark heresy is romanceable

I'm glad that they are removing Momentum in Dark Heresy and replacing it with a morale system. Momentum is even conceptually dumb, it's just a cheat code when you are losing and a win harder button when you are winning. Why does it even exists? I feel like game balance could be easily improved even by simply removing this "feature"

Priest is the best class in the game because you can use heroic acts way quicker.

I want to enjoy Dragon Age Origins but the combat is so bland and boring and I know the game falls off a cliff massively in terms of quality.

what game? cleric in dnd? i don't care about your pokemon difficulty game

>>529504029
>he doesn't know about officer/MT/Sanctic

>>529504126
>heroic acts
Rouge trader.

>>529504080
I always enjoyed the little combos you can set off. They aren't really deep nor that many but they work pretty well.

>>529504080
Just play a mage and make use of spell combos

>>529504029
I know the game is already a cakewalk by the time you get it but Argenta's power armour was incredible
>After using a heroic act, the wearer immediately uses Furious Recital regardless of cooldown
Firearm mastery+furious recital basically just immediately refills your momentum to HIGH

I hope they add another psyker focused version of whatever the next archetype is because I'm just going to end up taking the bird every time from now on with psykers.

>>529496227
Nope, it works for everything. Pounce is insanely strong in turnbased for that reason.

>>529502890
There's a mechanic in place to avoid warp encounters.

>>529499092
Farsight tau or I don't care.

Has Theodora always been voiced? I just started a new game and I don't recall her speaking last time.

>>529506679
She wasn't on original release but they later went back and redid the prologue to add more voices. I know they've been in since void shadows, don't know if they were added before then.

>>529506679
jeet you make the worst posts just to fill your shill quota

>>529506396
Don't fight the Drukari swarm until you're leveled up.

>>529507346
i just tried to get to a quest marker and the battle activated when my ship wasnt even in the red circle, but yeah

>>529501146
I don't think it is impossible but I never bothered to try it fully.
You can cheese eurach v and the prison by initiating eurach v, leaving before you complete it, and going to the prison. The game thinks you went to both first because the advancement flag never got triggered. I just never bothered to add rykad minoris to see if you can cheese all 3 first.

>>529507567
Rykad's flag gets triggered once you reach the command center. So nah, it's impossible, I checked.

>>529507754
Couldn't you initiate the other two to freeze their state then get jimmy? Or does triggering the command center flag advance the other two even though they've both been started "first"?

>>529508117
No idea. It's been like a year ago. Might as well try it yourself.

wow haha anon your so cool and really into buggy russian games :) tell me about your flags triggering some more

>>529508316
Keep talking like that and I'm gonna force your romance flag in toybox and nullify your hatred counter.

I kneel

>>529508442

>>529510241

Okay so I'm trying out her "romance" and I don't really get how this counts as a romance. She is physically repulsed by you and you are never her equal. I find it incredibly funny that the Drukhari companion treats you with more respect.

>>529510410
It's interesting once it all plays out. If you're using toybox you lose nothing by completing all of them

>>529510490
>you lose nothing
I'm losing my patience with her.

>>529510410
It makes more sense if you play a female trader.
She's a pretty realistic sexless lesbian "romance" with all the dysfunction that entails.

>>529510410
Marazhai is a dick but he actually acts like a decent enough friend once you spend enough time with him. He stops you from using the halo device and gives serious advice about the neocons in Chapter 5

do i really have to go around and talk to everyone until someone tells me where to go?

A managed to get through it. Honestly had more trouble with the demon encounter immediately before Staunton.

And now I have a dragon. A female dragon, oh god there is a bunch of art isn't there?

Holy shit i just started an iconoclast run in RT after doing two dogmatic runs in the past.

this shit is so fucking reddit coded.

>>529519482
>uses reddit as an insult while using "coded"
lmao

Is this a good team to start the third act? Not sure about Solomon, I like him but I doubt he will have anything interesting in the third act

>>529519482

Show your RT portrait coward. Otherwise drop Jimmy or Solomorne and grab Cassia.

>>529521242
>Cassia
a shit

>>529521242
I really don't like Cassia
I was thinking of taking Argenta or Idira

>>529521125
He has content anon, same amount as Kibbles but her personal quest is what makes her feel like she has more content. Also, I take it you're the officer of your group? This was my team, except I had Jae in instead of Pasqal.

>>529521394
>One of the mechanically best characters is shit
>>529521537
I would drop Jimmy for one of the two then. You don't need him and Abelard in the same team.

>>529521564
No, only heavy guns
I don't use officers
>>529521690
I like them both
Can Argenta be corupted? If so, I'll just leave her for the heretic run

are britbongs still posting? It has to be 12 at night or 1 in the morning I'm guessing.

>Can Argenta be corupted
She can't. She's way too retarded for corruption.

>>529521870
I don't understand this shit
Nothing will change
Do people really have nothing better to do?

Just started a new RT.

What's a fun build for Overseer? I'm stuck at the character screen and can't figure out what I want to be. I like to have a portrait associated with my build and finding good quality character art is a bit rough.

Pyromancer sword psyker kinda needs executioner to come online right?

>>529522131
In US petition sites don't do shit as we all know, but in britbong once a petition reaches 1 million signatures their court is mandated to look at the petition and get on the case.

>>529522147
Overseer is a jack of all trades class so any class that leads into it will be OK but not stellar

>>529519149
Thats your daughter you sick fuck

>>529522293
Nothing's going to change. Brits are corrupt and directly benefit from the games industry being fucked

How many times can I collect ransom from Skie?
I want to kill her off and keep eldoth.

>>529493063

Damn, I saw the meme but the whole thing is even cooler
I guess this is a "Mythic Power" moment like in Wotr
Say whatever you want but Owlcat is really good at doing moments like this with all the music and writing
I can't wait for a similar moment in the Expanse, if they don't fuck up it could be something truly great

>>529490291
>The later is self-explanatory,
Why? You want your enemies to know you're in bed with the inquisition? That's a bad decision. That will prompt them to be more careful. No, the master of whispers needs to stay in the shadows. I always do Abelard and Cassia

>>529524950
>You want your enemies to know you're in bed with the inquisition?
Would you rather prefer them thinking you're in bed with an aeldari?

>>529525364
No, I already told you that I go for Abelard and Cassia. Also that image is stupid. Calcazar would encourage Jimmy to whore himself out to get better intel, not object to it. He strikes me as that kind of guy, it's also the reason why I think Solomorne romance is just parts of Jimmy romance that didn't make it into the final version. They're in very similar positions

>>529510410
I think Yrlietards have a degradation kink. The ones who actually read her dialogue and not imagine a cutesy elven waifu.

>>529523198
i killed her instantly after picking her up then dropped her corpse. same with zxan or whatever with montoron except he's good about getting himself killed. people really slept on bards in bg1 considering ranged and charisma is useful in it

>>529521125
Drop Kebab and pasqal. Take Argenta and Idira

>>529526017
Based.

>>529525802
I'd bet that Calcazar knows Jimmy better than Jimmy himself knows himself, and that the reason why he didn't make him an Inquisitor yet is because he's not sure if he can pull this out, and that his mission on RT's vessel is a test. Ngl selling your loyalty for an iconopussy isn't exactly dogmatic of him.

>>529526405
>iconopussy
imblying

>>529526405
Xavier knows that Jimmy still has parts of humanity still in him. They've not been beaten out of him throughout all his years and yes, Jimmy is really good at his job but his humanity is likely a weakness to Xavier. An iconoRT is definitely imo the best choice for jimmy BUT, enough about that. What was Theodora to Xavier hmm? Was she his weakness? Give me the gossip.

>>529526405
Calzone just sees Jimmy as a useful tool. and im not sure if Calzone knew Jimmy could be easily seduced.

When does reputation actually stack or change? I killed this faggot now who tried to sell me a turqoise gem for a thousand gold and that didn't seem to decrease my rep, but accidentally killing the guy who turned himself into a chicken, even though that was also out in the wild somehow did decrease my reputation (I thought it was just a random chicken)
