>>Thread Question: Do you prefer Fantasy or Space CRPGs?
Depends on the game, there's not many space CRPGs in the first place. I like claws and bites and fangs and tails so fantasy appeals to me more, usually. But a cool sci-fi setting can be pure kino as well.

>>530228304
Fuck off furfag

Having a mini fleet is cool, still wish we could visibly customize our flagship though.

I lived to see the day jimmy survived over everyone else

fucking initiative

Man, any pretence of balance just up and vanishes the further into the game you go. Having only played through the game once at release and replaying it now, I had forgotten just much utter bullshit you can get up to by late game. Especially if you got level 4 of Icon. And double especially with all the Executioner nonsense.

>The monster disappeared, and silence returned once more. Steam rises from freshly baked cookies and fragrant tea on the table. Arueshalae gazes at her dream. You've never seen such joy on her face. “I... I just want to live here, in the mortal world. With you. I've solved the goddess's riddle. This is my true dream!”

>Arueshalae’s fragile body flares with a rainbow light, a swarm of blue butterflies surrounds her. She looks at you with shining eyes. “I love you. Will you be with me? Will you share my dream?”

>The girl flinches, but doesn’t pull her hand away. She squeezes your hand with her dry, hot fingers. “I believe you. You must be real — I don’t want to imagine a world where you’re not.”

>As if she was just waiting for that, Arueshalae answers your smile with one of her own. “Together, no hardship will scare us. We’ll get through it! We definitely will!”

>The heat radiating from Arueshalae’s body warms you and fills you with peace. Closing her eyes, she leans closer into you, her face moving toward yours...

>Arueshalae takes your hand in her small, hot palm, and the world around you fades away.

I bless this thread with my hands.

>>530228880
Are you playing on Unfair or just bad?

I'm on my first playthrough of Rogue Trader and was having a great, relatively smooth time until Chapter 4. My team is at Level 36, and I've just filled out the Exemplar talents, and I went to the Winterscale planet to begin the forest mission, only to get immediately destroyed by the Aeldari encounter.

The encounter on Footfall didn't go much better either, I was carried mostly by having every possible ally in the bar and Abelard being particularly resilient. Am I underlevelled somehow or is this just a bizarre difficulty spike? Yesmerrys gave me just as much of a headache.

>>530229094
Both. Ignore the attentionwhore for best results before he has another meltie.

>>530229094
Unfair

Iceman is such a sweetheart deep down

>>530228625
Shut up nigga

>>530229124
You're probably just playing weird or building your guys weird

>>530229227
????

Thread Question:
Space is always preferable to me over fantasy, but there are few space rpgs

>>530229614
I'm running Officer Player character, Cassia, Abelard, Pasqal, Argenta and Idira. I focus on Fellowship and BS for myself, Fellowship and Perception for Cassia, Toughness and Strength for Abelard, Intelligence and alternating Weapon/Ballistic skill for Pasqal, and Willpower/Perception for Idira. When I can't do that, I just touch up other skills like Medicae or Awareness on whoever has the highest.

As far as skill picking goes, does it really affect the difficulty that much? I build Abelard like a tank, Argenta to improve her shooting, my character/Cassia to give more benefits with their Voice of Command, etc. I'm building them towards their Archetypes' strength.

>>530229124
Must be a fucked build somehow, I didn't find those guys particularly hard

>>530229936
This game is all about the skills. The key is to look carefully at what they do, and respec as necessary by talking to Janris Danrok on the bridge
For example, Abelard should be able to parry almost everything by that level

>>530230301
Bollocks, I must've built my skills suboptimally then. My main issue with the Aeldari encounter was the Rangers overpenetrating sniper shots two-tapping my team, and with the Footfall fight both my PC and Pasqal got minced by the Plasma Overcharge shots from the boss.

I'll take a look at some resources and see where I went wrong.

>>530230575
You should have no trouble once you read some resources

>>530229936
Sounds to me you're lacking dodge reduction and damage output. Two officers and argenta should've been more than enough.

>>530230575
There's also the armor breaking to keep in mind. Stack up the operative exploits, then remove them with Find Weakness (or whatever it's called). Very necessary near the endgame

>>530230575
It could be gear too. There’s some real build defining stuff you could be missing.

>rate of fire 4
>range 12
Now we're cooking. The meme build

>>530230841
Why the fuck would he need to use operative debuffs on a late game argenta with two late game officers buffing her? Come on man.

This is absolutely fucking retarded
With this + my officer abilities I can get Kibellah to genuinely clear an entire boss room on her own
By the time death walz is finished I have enough momentum for my officer ability too, Kibellah can make like 20 buffed attacks + jumps

>>530231335
>kibellah
eq

>>530231335
Or use it on an executioner and kill everything without even moving...

I just started this. Gonna go support (officer), super zealous religous type. i dunno anything about this game and little about warhammer. what am i in for? can i fuck people or is that a chaos activity?

>>530231656
hello faggot

>>530227579 (OP)
>Thread Question: Do you prefer Fantasy or Space CRPGs?
Fantasy. I don't care if its overdone I just like the feel

>>530229882
Answer: not a question.

>>530231656
>zealous religous type

Yo! New Anon. Join My Gang or else...

>>530231656
Didn't you just do a playthrough.

>>530231842
I was told chaos path sucked in this game, that it was the worst version of an evil path for a crpg ever.

>>530231934
thats just the normalfag NPC of rogue trader, could very well be someone else

>>530231934
this is my first time. i'm approaching it safely. what would a "fun" run look like? can i go from super zealous to corrupted by the end?

>i'm so freaking chuddy dude i'm such a little dogma!! i'm such an officer!!!
>btw i'm a woman ingame!
Hmmm... Suspiciously often...

>>530231945
Chaos is fun but it's so dumb because some of what you do is obviously full chaos and nobody challenges you on it.

>>530231606
I had made marazhai into an excutioner but he's.... currently indisposed.

>>530232214
Nice magnification effect on Apu's eye

Pasqal, you're my combat starter while everyone else hides behind key positions

you start first and have ridiculous movement points at the start
other than that, you're kind of useless

Fish is cute as fuck

>>530231656
>can i fuck people or is that a chaos activity?
There is romance in the game, and it's not chaos related, if that is what you were asking
But since you are playing a woman, you lose out on best girl

>>530232146
It's fairly obvious what the "corruption" choices are so it can't really sneak up on you

Idira can become a daemonhost, as a treat

>>530231945
the people who repeat that hyperbole haven't played a single CRPG before this place became the owlcat general

>>530232146
>can i go from super zealous to corrupted by the end?
Meh
You have to start taking some corruption since the beginning to get the full thing later on

You can mix and match alignment, the game has 3 alignments but doesn't force you to stay locked in one

>>530231656
Yeah there's loads of opportunities for sex
Once you get a gf she's available on demand pretty much

what second class should I pick for my bladedancer psyker
not sure how relevant the executioner dot stuff is since I don't often use the fire on enemies instead of myself
on hard if that matters

>>530232493

>>530233115
How in the actual fuck is that fat fuck blade dancing? All options can work well

>>530233115
I liked executioner
Works very well with a psyker and the dot stuff is helpful

>>530233115
Executioner gives you bleed on all your attacks. As for you psyker abilities you should've picked up Biomancy somewhere along the way to get that ability that poisons enemies on hit. Add that with fire and you will literally melt enemies.

>>530233292
It's a kung fu panda kind of deal

>>530233292
Big fat men are often surprisingly light on their feet

>>530233115
>what second class should I pick for my bladedancer psyker

>>530233390
Is it really worth spending an ability slot AND a class talent when you could be using one of those already good deldar swords?

>>530233548
It's not even really worth it to light yourself on fire as a bladedancer, people just parrot youtube builds

>>530233686
it is if an enemy does it for you

>>530233686
It kinda is tho. You can't get fire damage on melee as easy and that can add A LOT of damage on BDs. And if you're already taking pyro why not.

Welp im glad I didnt kill marazhai on my second playthrough, seems like he has a decent amount of content

>Get to Act 3
>Get bored and stop because my party is overleveled for every encounter and has Exemplar talents before even getting to Commaragh.

Shield builds kinda suck ass compared to running around with a greatsword cleaving chaff and other than the feudal world strumpette getting dragged to my ship to serve me coffee there isn't all the much interesting about the DLC. Hopefully we get a good plotline for the Trazyn DLC so I can try a good Servo Skull build or do a Willpower stacking Priest Bladedancer into Psychic Awakening.

Do psychic awakenings happen out of the blue to grown ass men? Is there a way to RP my character suddendly having an awakening?

Does Jimmy even react to it?

>>530233292
>All options can work well
What about Arch-Militant, do psyker spells count as ranged attacks?

Dogmatists can’t accept that as a Rogue Trader it’s your duty to have sex with xenos.

>Volatile servitors
>The blow and are are suppose to die
>They just keep blowing up every turn and don't die
Owlkeks are fucked.

>>530234236
You could rp that when Yrliet mind melded with you the first time because you smelt stressed that it awakened a latent ability

>>530233952
It's not. You waste an attack for no reason, as a dodge build (assuming you are one) you're doing a shitton of damage to yourself and you could get bad trauma, you're wasting AP for some extra on-hit damage when psyker already has multiple items that do that, your fire damage on hit doesn't interact with executioner at all.
It's just wasteful.
Blade dancer assassin can already stack damage via lethality stacking and direct damage, arch-militant via extermination, executioner via DoTs. Orchestrate flames is a meme youtubers sucked off on release and thus the 'community' parroted.
Setting a warrior on fire who's wielding a chainsaw is very worth it, because then they get to benefit from the extra damage for their whole turn (and chainsaws burst-fire adding up to a ton of damage), your own bladedancer guy setting himself on fire not so much.
But the game is easy so do hat you want to do.

>>530234236
Look at it this way, your character had the potential to be a Psyker and between the stress of both flavours of Eldar being dicks as well as multiple major psionic events happening around you starting with Dargonus your powers activated.

>>530233995
Shields are dog shit. Even worse if you're using burst fire on an area they're in, they'll block all the shots instead of dodging so all the rounds don't even hit the enemy either.

>>530234236
I never pick that one because, there not being any way to reach the Emperor and be sanctioned, my character would eventually be doomed to explode and die like Idira will one day

>combat is ballbusting
>HAVE TO FUCKING WALK EVERYWHERE CAN'T RUN
>game has tons of technical issues with load times and crashes
Why can't I stop playing this?

>>530234264
Single target and AoE depending on the ability.
>>530234236
They can, especially now that the galaxy got fucked open. There's even some rare psyker ogryns out and about now (as in, super rare). Just RP it was a product of the warp storms or as a side effect of all the edge of daybreak shit you've been dealing with. Companion reactions I don't know about.
>>530233995
Shields are for dual-wielding, not for hitting guys 1 time, there's a reason shield bash costs 0. Works better as psyker because of all your on-hit items but works fine on other dudes too.
Chainsaws still do more damage but hey what can you do.

I did your companion quest? You owe me sex.

>>530234559
Couldn’t a rogue trader find a way to do it? I thought a lot of sanctioned psykers don’t actually go to the emperor.

Who is the superior race now, knife-eared bitch?

>>530234629
>>combat is ballbusting
Not really, if you know what you're doing (stop trying to fight shit that overlevels you man)
>>HAVE TO FUCKING WALK EVERYWHERE CAN'T RUN
The game has a speed setting nigga....
>>game has tons of technical issues with load times and crashes
Literally never crashed or encountered a bug in triple digit hours, sucks that you have

>>530234746
Any new psyker can find a way to do it, even idira. You just have to go through the process. She just doesn't want to.
To be fair it sucks ass as heinrix tells you, and she could fail and die, or fail and be killed for being too dangerous, or fail and be sent to power the golden throne.
>>530234559
You become sanctioned via the black ships then the sanctioning process (psyker training), the emperor is only ever involved when people become astropaths.

>>530234684
I was dual wielding and did decent damage, problem is that I was doing a Vanguard run and reactive shield bash isn't an attack of opportunity and counterattack stance doesn't trigger whenever you block. I know all the ways I could break shields they are just boring and don't synergize with the defensive builds like they should.

The bigger issue I had was that I was Exemplar 3 after the Commissar/Malice encounter and fights were stupid easy. I'm hoping they do an exp overhaul in the next 6 months so the Trazyn DLC doesn't break the game even more.

>>530234380
>a shitton of damage to yourself
With either items, consumables, forgeworld, pyro trait and innate 50% damage reduction while under OF? How's that if you have even some of that? And how are you not constantly healing what little damage you take with blood oath alone?

>your fire damage on hit doesn't interact with executioner at all
Yes it does. In a very significant way at that. Seriously, take a closer look.

Now is it better than a soldier with a flamer into AM spamming inflame? Dunno but it is very fun and very strong.

>>530235039
Yeah they don't really give vanguard much I agree. You're already stacking parry and armor and temporary wounds as that, it hardly needs MORE defense.

>>530234974
Oh ok, I didn't know that. So ti's basically a training process, not that you absolutely NEED a little piece of the Emperor's light
>she could fail and die, or fail and be killed for being too dangerous, or fail and be sent to power the golden throne.
I guess I can see why she's reluctant.

>>530234974
They should patch in an option for Jimmy to train Idira and she becomes sanctioned, and changes alignment away from heretical

>>530235445
Doesn't work like that dude.

>>530235514
Well why not? The sanctioning process is just psyker training

>>530235305
Sanction is a real word
>verb
>past tense: sanctioned; past participle: sanctioned
>1. give official permission or approval for (an action).
>"only two treatments have been sanctioned by the Food and Drug Administration"
They're just psykers who are unlikely to have a meltdown or explode when using their powers, being reliable and able. The black ships are horrible and the sanctioning process is horrible, but afterwards they're at least proven to be very unlikely to just spontaneously die (with the help of psyker implants and shit also). It's like boot camp.
Astropaths I don't recall exactly what the requirements are, I think they have enough power but not enough control? So they go through the soulbinding process that malcador made to make their power use more secure, then they go do the whole astropath business
Can't have every little combat psyker or what have you go get help from the emperor

>>530235279
It actually makes Vanguard worse at everything except raw defense, Blocking happens before Parry and doesn't count as one so every ability that triggers off Parrying like counter attacking enemies just doesn't trigger and mathwise shield bashing after a block doesn't properly count as an attack of opportunity so I'm doing like 30 damage with a bash while the occasional Parry does 90+ on the counterswing. My character was standing in front of everyone being an invincible ahole while Kibbelah, Idira or ranged Pasqal one shot everything thanks to being so overleveled and it was just pretty boring.

>>530234823
>stop trying to fight shit that overlevels you man
NO
>The game has a speed setting nigga....
For combat only, not for walking around outside of combat.
>Literally never crashed or encountered a bug in triple digit hours
Bizarre but not that improbable, shit can behave weird on different hardware. I timed it, when starting the game up it takes over 2 minuets for it to load the main menu. Loading saves is much faster after that, but there are still some that take unreasonably long and it sometimes just freezes and shits itself for like 30 seconds when it gets discombobulated by random shit, usually to do with the UI.
Crashes are luckily not super frequent, like one every 10 hours on average, and they happen during zone transitions after the autosave, so I don't lose progress, but I still have to go through that 2 minute startup every time.

>>530235586
It's not just training, it's an entire process.
An inquisitor probably could recruit an unsanctioned psyker and make the use of their powers far more secure via their own means but it's not the same thing.

>>530235758
They also usually get a bunch of implants to regulate their power. Jimmy mentions how once he became an interrogator and was considered actually safe long term they were removed. Really though idira is against it because she's some voodoo priestess from some bronze age hellhole Theodora found and had the well of sanctioning poisoned because Theodora wanted a pet diviner and didn't care if Idira died.

>>530235586
>he doesn't know about the casualty rate

>>530231656
already seen that post a week ago....

>>530235998
>For combat only, not for walking around outside of combat.
Press +++ (yes, the button on your numpad)

>>530235586
Because they're not jedi. The process has a very high turnover rate and not only because they always need fuel for the golden throne. Consider it something between indoctrination, partial lobotomy and screening for usefulness and or stability.

>>530235758
>Can't have every little combat psyker or what have you go get help from the emperor
Ok that makes a lot of sense. I thought all pyskers had to go all the way to Terra and back again which seemed impossible

>>530236341
They do. And most of them don't come back.

>>530236032
>>530236215
>>530235758
Thanks for the lore, bros

>>530236341
There's "psyker schools" (Scholastia Psykana) spread around here and there as we've directly seen in a somewhat recent book, yeah. Not all psykers get to be delivered straight to terra.
>>530236491
Not true, actually.

>>530236192
I'm going to +++ my way to styg's house and introduce him to this cool diy shotgun I made. Why the fuck would you not tutorialize this shit somewhere?! Give me a loading screen tip for fucks sake since I have to stare at that shit for so long!
Thanks.

>>530236491
Or should I say, not true anymore* if you wanna be technical.

>>530236583
Really the whyole process would be wildly different for Idira and even moreso for the RT. Random planetary nobles like Jimmy get thrown to the black ships because they don't really matter but people that actually matter at a sector level like the RT or his retinue wouldn't be tossed in a cell.

>>530236693
It's an easter egg <3

>>530236797
I mean I dunno how much I agree with that... the inquisition can say "nothx!" but I'm not sure how pleasant it would be for even rogue traders.. dunno, we don't see much stuff like this be tackled so I don't think we know.
Being semi-tortured is an important part of the "are you going to explode" testing, supposedly.

If you give Idira to Jimmy he doesn't send her away to the inquistion, he just hides her in his room
Think about it, there's no way off the ship so what else could he do?
Same with Yrliet and Marazhai. She sleeps in a box in Jimmy's room, and Marazhai in the closet.

>>530236953
Considering how backwards the imperium is I wouldn’t be super shocked if there was a much easier way to do it.

>>530236583
Is that right?

>>530237174
>Or should I say, not true anymore* if you wanna be technical.
That book is about 30 years old, congratulations.
Gonna post at me how the grey knights kill sisters of battle to bathe in their blood next?

>>530237296
It's actually the latest Rogue Trader RPG: Core Rulebook but do go on. I always like reading shit takes from dipshits like you doubling down in panic.

>You call them "ruinous powers" yet you serve them?
>isn't that a little contradictory?

There's some pretty good artwork in here

>>530237742
>It's actually the latest
"Untouchables"
I rest my case, seethe on, obsessed with outdated lore nig.

I would ‘sanction’ Idira if you know what I mean

>>530237296
Personally I don't consider anything past rogue trader (1987) canon.
Genestealers aren't tyrannids
Squats exist.
And Leman Russ looks like this.

>>530237174
That doesn't contradict there being local Schola Psykana
All it says is that "most" psykers are found useless for training so they are sent to the Astronomican
It dosen't say what becomes of the ones that ARE suitable for training
I choose to believe they are processed at the nearest Psyker School rather than sent on the very long and potentially deadly trip to Terra

>>530237742
If I google this am I going to find out that the latest rogue trader core rulebook is old as fuck

>>530238332
I think most of the warhammer shit I have from the 2000s is retconned now.

>>530237868
I agree broadly speaking, but you need to include the two Realm of Chaos books from 1988 otherwise you don't even get the chaos factions
Those also solidified the Eldar's fall due to too much faggotry, and the Emperor's past
>Born on earth in the distant past
>Influenced mankind throughout history
>Dark Age of Technology
>Horus' betrayal
>Sacrifices himself to defeat Horus
>Golden Throne
>Sensei and Star Child
Really nothing past 1st ed plus Realm of Chaos is worth bothering with, it's all there

>The Imperial Fists memorialized newly inducted Marine classes with shit out nuggets of amber. WAAAAAAAATSON!!!

>"Perhaps the strangest talisman – and one (or should one say many…?) which made those initiates feel themselves intimately a part of the Fists – was kept in a long crypt below the Reclusiam, reached by a dropshaft which would incinerate anyone who did not sport a Black Carapace beneath their skin.

>The adamantium floor down there was inscribed with a maze of tiny coloured channels that bootsteps would never be able to wear away – in a pattern suggestive of a cosmic map – and along all of those channels were spaced little indentations the depth of a Fist’s thumbprint, each recess named with a rune. At one end of this seemingly arcane map or game-board an enormous plascrystal bowl held thousands of what at first sight appeared to be bloodshot ochreous eyeballs.

>Each ball commemorated the initiation of a group of ex-cadets, throughout the aeons – each being a nugget of the liquid amber and blood drunk from Rogal Dorn’s own chalice by the Reclusiarch of whichever epoch, and defecated by him subsequently in this shape."

How do I build Jimmy when I first get him? I'm very fucking stupid and I always feel like I end up making some shit build.

For once I actually agree with her. Starting a retributive war with the monkeys would be really stupid considering you are destined to lose and low numbers of survivors is already a problem for your species. Killing yourselves upon the limitless waves of monkeys for no reason while you are simultaneously complaining about how you're dying out is really funny, and really sends home the point that these people are just plain stupid despite being advanced in many ways.

I have always been of the opinion that humans and eldar should work together, since both of us share the larger enemy of chaos, but they're so dumb while calling us dumb which makes them so hard to interact with.

Come on pet xenos, let's finish our mission here and leave. if they want to kill themselves, it's not my circus and not my monkeys.

>>530241290
>I have always been of the opinion that humans and eldar should work together
You are obviously mistaken

>>530241221
Lean into either support or offensive psyker and branch out later

>>530241290
Plot wise this is where she finally understands that her own people aren't as wise as she had supposed

Since when do spells count for AM versatility?

Here we go again, a character talking about her ex-boyfriends again. Always the same thing with owlcat.

>>530241610
They've counted for a while.
>>530241735
it's not even sex
yrilet's "romance" is for cucks and lesbians

>>530241794
>They've counted for a while.
That's... insane. I love it.

>>530228976
'Twas shame there was no option to turn on Arushelae in her dream and kill her with shadows.

Well maybe we shouldn't have sent the person who has shown themselves to be severely autistic on several occasions as our negotiator.

>>530227579 (OP)
>>Thread Question: Do you prefer Fantasy or Space CRPGs?
I don't like either desu. I prefer literally any other setting

>>530241735
I'll be interested to see whether you get her ancestors demanding she break up with you for the next bit or not

>>530229312
Surprisingly enough it doesn't matter if he went full chud, or not. He will still advocate against using it

>>530240302
Do you think it’s impossible that they could’ve come up with an updated version based on the old game.

>>530228880
Anon? Your Pysker boots? he is ltierally unkillable with them

During the second act I just figured if I explored every planet I would find all the rumors and never looked twice at it

I now (act 4) discover that if you return to some planets there is stuff actively going on, but this is not marked on the map when looking around, you have to put your cursor on the system to see that something id going on inside
Just how much did I miss in act 2?

>>530242294
Oh looks like you got the non-romance version
If you are dating her you get a different version
From your Cumrag screenshots she definitely thought you were dating her at that point so I guess you broke up with her after that point

>>530231891
I think my favorite aspect of this lineup is that the artist was largely able to illustrate the characters without relying on the typical colour associated with each god.

>>530240302
I don't think Rt even had any official campaigns in the first place. It's not pozzfinder that shits out generic adventures every year

>>530242731
Of course not dude and I wouldn't have a problem if they did. I'm just not seeing they actually did. No girlyman, no primaris, no huron, no cadia going boom. I'd imagine SOMEONE would mention it if only because GW told them to put that in. Meanwhile there's a lot of little nods with some locations and planet names for example. If anything there's a lot of the stuff missing from the core material, ancient by your standards it be, and I'm somewhat anxious what they're going to cut out form their DH game.
It's not really uncommon for less profitable spinoffs like BFG for example to get far less love and updated codexes compared to the main line either.

>>530243051
True but there are some apparently. Not really my thing so can't say either way.

>>530242902
Some of them are only for act 4, such as that one

>>530240036
I like that Jae's persona cracks whenever she gets to see extreme cruelty against the common folk. I really hope we get an Ork segment at some point in the next season pass so we can get into the shit she saw as a guardsman.

Oh cool I didn't even notice there was a farseer path for her. I didn't see the option for her to become a psyker and want to pump willpower and wear medium armor. Next playthrough I guess. How do you unlock it?

>>530241221
If you want to build him as a damage dealer:
Warrior into Executioner. Don't take any warrior skills, only new psyker spells. Prioritize psyker talents, you can take warrior talents when you hit exemplar.
Why not Assassin? Because Assassin is much more dependant on assassin talents unlike executioner that works perfectly well without executioner talents, you just need to shit out some dots which he can already do due to being a biomancer.
Psyker talents that you should take asap: Strange Vitality and Biophysical Distortion. You can also give him pyromancy discipline, but I feel it's unnecessary since he's already gonna be shitting out damage.
Psyker Spells you should take: Get Warp Speed asap. After that take whatever you like or think you need - there are no bad spells in Sanctic and Biomancy disciplines. This build will synergize well with your designated flamethrower user if you have one
If you want to build him as support
Warrior into Overseer with psyber raven. Everything else is the same

>>530241525
Too bad it doesn't change her attitude

>>530242902
You need to go around to your ship NPC's and ask about rumours just like start of act 2 to trigger most of this stuff. There's an entire ship battle chase sequence of pirates raiding your shit that I didn't trigger in my first playthrough.

>>530243797
The Great Rift is in there at least

>>530244042
>Warrior into Executioner.
Oh, and you should at some point take the two executioner skills: Reckless Abandon (always good, doesn't need AP to use) and Where It Hurts (Good for bosses and beefy enemies, doesn't need AP to use)

Neat.

It's a shame it's medium so it eats her dodge chance though. Some light eldar armor would be a cool item to find.
Being able to take the eldar equipment feat would also be cool. Instead of only weapons. Just give it a minimum lore xenos requirement.

>>530244620
It's good either way, just have Cassia buff her Willpower and she'll get the +15%.

>>530228869
wish the flagship wasn't a twinkish frigate

>>530244408
Actually forgot it's even mentioned and that's a really good point. Now you got me interested, do you remember anything else similarly modern?

>>530244042
Why not AM?

>Argenta has been trivializing the game
>Owlcat gives her a better gun

>>530245442
Because you already have 2, you don't need three, that would be mighty boring. Diversify your party to have more fun

>>530241221
He is a Tank support, pretty much abelard but better.

>>530242568
So you want a less wacky jagged alliance crpg? Or a age of decadence with out all the alien shit crpg?

>>530245631
Abelard would keep up but he's slowed due to dragging those huge brass balls of his

>>530245801
How about steam punk? Or diesel punk? Or weird/wild west? Or noire? Or historical settings? They can even feature supernatural and magic, I don't care, as long as it's not tolkienesque fantasy again

>>530246094
>steam/diesel punk
That just less technological practically sci-fi
>noire and history
Okay those can be actually semi-realistic crpgs.

>>530245614
Reasonable

>>530246456
Sorry I'm drunk I meant "less technologically practical" not practically.

>just did the beginning of act 5 romance scene with kibbles
>thought it went really now
>now she refuses to kiss me on the bridge
wtf did i do? psycho bitch

>>530244191
>>530243813
Yeah I'm more worried about how many were exclusive to act 1

>>530246726
None of them. you can't explore the expanse in act 1

>>530246592
>Sorry I'm drunk I meant "less technologically practical" not practically.
I guess for me Sci-Fi means semi-hard space setting, so i don't really see any of the "punk" setting as sci-fi

I did it....I traded roguishly to the max.

I look forward to entering chapter 5 and getting more vendor items and rep levels. Items in this game are pretty meaningful and fun.

>>530247035
I meant act 2

>>530245257
Not really, aside from the new pozz names like Astra Militarum
Most of the new stuff would not be seen in the Koronus expanse anyway

>>530247154
Shadowrun bros we aren't sci-fi.....

>>530247154
Speaking of, I would really like a cyberpunk game akin to Satellight Reign where you have to perform heists. SR is already this, it just lacks strong narrative and roleplaying parts to be a crpg

>>530247490
It is, of course sci-fi broadly speaking. I was just talking about what I think of when people say "sci-fi"

>>530227579 (OP)
>Thread Question: Do you prefer Fantasy or Space CRPGs?
I have always considered myself a fantasy guy, but I do say I am starting to like RT more than pathfinder, and it might be my favorite game.
So there's that

It's also important to consider 40k is a very fantasy space setting, with wizards, demons, elves and dwarves so yeah.

>>530247813
>I have always considered myself a fantasy guy, but I do say I am starting to like RT more than pathfinder, and it might be my favorite game.
Well. Rt is also not sci-fi, it's fantasy in space. Yes, there's a difference

>>530247990
The question mentioned space, not science.

>>530248058
Alright, alright, geez

I've added a lot of various buffs and equipment in order to make this shotgun say rate of fire 7, but it's not doing anything different than when it said rate of fire 2 by default. I'm super sad. That stat just doesn't seem to do anything on shotguns.

>>530248817
They don't have a burst fire attack

>Metabolic Overcharge into Bring it Down
So my biomancer and officer can jerk each other off forever

Is there a JRPG general I cant find it. I wanted to discuss clair obscur after beating it. I chose the verso ending Combat was pretty fun but it kind of dragged at the end. Too many trash mobs like an owl cat game so I ran past a lot of them lol. Also turned on story mode so I didnt have to grind and was tired of altering my build and items every hour.

>>530248817
Rate of fire only works for burst attacks. Shotguns don't have burst attack, so of course it won't do anything. Moreover it's pointless to have rate of fire higher than max ammo, because you can't shoot more bullets than there are in your chamber (2) . Think, anon, think.

>>530249184
There are daily e33 threads on /v/. Just use those

>>530249346
>it's pointless to have rate of fire higher than max ammo
Not always

>>530249837
>AKSHUALLY
Yes, I'm aware of that talent, but if you need fill every equipment slot just to raise your RoF to a meager 7, then is it really worth it? Not in this case I don't think

>>530242716
JImmy like women ans psykers. Hence he likes Idira. They should be friends and have a pint together. She will give him a blowie, and he will keep her in check so she doesn't summon a daemon again. It's a win-win

>>530249471
/v/ is filled with underage baiting retards

>>530250519
How is that different from here?

jrpgs are for pedos, so yea

>the person doing [thing] explains [thing]
>naaaaaah, it was my voices!
Go kill an entire bay of loyal voidsmen because you can't control your powers again Idira you're not helping here

why the fuck is there a forgefiend near the beginning of act 2

>>530251775
>he found the kino ship

>>530251775
Its cool.

>>530251775
Why shouldn't there be

Stop felating yourself sunshine. Different anon with a different silly idea that doesn't involve shotguns.

LORD CAPTAIN I PREDICT YOU ARE GAYYYYY
>>530251775
Because fuck you that's why

>>530251775
Your Argenta?

>>530251775
Because Kino i back on the menu

How do other schools of magic cope with the fact that they'll never be conjurationchads?

>>530251893
>why are you gay?
-Idira Tlass

>>530252138
By having cooler spells mostly

>why yes I specialize in conjuration
>t. A white woman

Idira's nickname for Yrliet, "Red", is short for "REtarD"

>>530252339
>is obviously a spider
>doesn't like creeping doom

>>530243797
>picrel
Reminds me of the old ruleset and how much I wish Owlcat used it instead of homebrewing their own system.

>>530253054
It's actually an acronym for "Retarded. Extremely Dangerous". Unfortunately the iconokek rogue trader has banned any use of R-word on the ship, so she had to improvise

>>530243797
That RT's Yrliet has much bigger tits than mine does and she looks like she puts out

>>530251775
I beat it but I was not expecting that. Might be the biggest oh shit moment so far.

Why is Camellia chaotic evil and not neutral evil? What is the distinction anyway for a psychopath/serial killer? I feel like if she were truly chaotic then she wouldn't care about hiding her real self from most people?

>>530242902
Oh, that quest was fun. New anons playing please take your time on RT. We're still a couple of years away from Dark heresy.

>>530254317
Hiding it is part of her kink

DOS1 is so fucking shit, wow
I played dos2 years before bg3, but dos1 is way worse, was not prepared for this

>>530254317
Chaotic doesn't just mean you're cuuuuuhrazy and act without any thought

>>530255681
So what makes her chaotic and not neutral?

>Forgot to take Pasqal to Euphrates
I ain't replaying this shit. Hope it doesn't break his quest

>>530254317
Neutral people are "normal"
She is abnormal

>>530255632
dos1 is garbage desu. I tried to play it 3 times and barely progressed 25% through the first area, it’s so awful

>>530255854
She's randomly killing people for the fun of it, anon.

>>530256221
Presumably only if she can get away with it though?
How come that doesn't fit under a neutral alignment?
I'm just curious about what the distinction is between the two

i forgot how tedious this fight was, i was able to use turn undead to pick off all the blobber skeletons but it took me 4 whole turns of my enite team hammering on this guy to deal with the boss skeleton

>>530257790
Solasta is such an ugly looking game man

>>530257790
The grid looks totally wrong for the setting
Looks sci-fi

Is this cool
I'm not sure, there's not too many good "regular military" shirts in the game surprisingly enough

>>530258682
Looks /fa/

>>530257147
>Presumably only if she can get away with it though?
More like 'Is she's see's an opportunity'.

Including soldiers on her side during the middle of a fight. She gives in to her impulses much easier than what I would expect a Lawful or Neutral character would if all else was the same.

>>530258682
Yes, it's cool

>>530252138
Shriek of the banshee sort of summons something so it's aite. Evocation #1

>>530257147
They make it pretty obvious the only reason she hasn't been stopped is that she's wealthy and currently useful to the crusade. They even already know it was her before you 'investigate'

>>530257147
NE is sadistic and violent in a self serving way, or because they like the feeling of power
CE is for legitimately fucked in the head gore and murder fetishists, which is what Cam is

>>530258732
>>530259135
Sick thanks

>>530259898
she is so precious
i'll give her all the pious and noble crusaders she wants and fuck her on their corpses

Finally started the Kibbles romance. Holy hell, I thought she'd be more hesitant due to my status and her role as my blade but she was ready to go.

The way her demeanor changes when it's just us is crazy enticing.

Anyway, gameplay question. Is Heinrix just a buffbot? I made him an overseer but even before that I was getting more use from him spamming word of the emperor than him actually doing melee damage.

Was it ever explained how Theodora found the RT? Is there a blood repository or something? The Administratioum seems pretty shit

>>530261540
>The Administratioum seems pretty shit
It's pretty good actually, just slow. But no we're not told, she probably just looked up her relatives I imagine.

>>530261117
Heinrix, for me anyway, is more about dots (poison) and buffing himself to do more damage
Yeah the Kibbles romance is great and quite substantial

>>530261117
Heinrix can be built just about however. Many of his builds dip into pyro though and I think it's lame to spec characters outside of their canon setups.

>>530261540
In the Noble origin, I like to think she was your distant great aunt who occasionally sent you a birthday card and attended one of your childhood birthdays

>>530261905
>I think it's lame to spec characters outside of their canon setups
Based and roleplaypilled. Except for when the character is specced like a retard because developers did not include the classes that fit him best on release *cough*Marazhai*cough*

>>530261540
If there's one thing Adeministratum would know it's all the noble bloodline intricacies

>>530262437
The adminstratoum can't even be assed to fact check if the Basedjack Moneybags who died was the the elderly decript man or his son who is now considered legally dead and in violation of his death tax

Why did they give Marazai soijak face for a portrait? I can't take him seriously at all

>>530261540
You'd think they would have some kind of registry for psykers at least.

>>530262748
He thinks it intimidates you

>Biomancer can't heal injuries
Did they train Heinrix wrong as a joke?

>>530263261
You need to heal wounds while they're fresh wounds

>>530263325
I'm not talking about wounds. I'm asking why a fucking biomancer can't fix a broken leg

>>530263546
The mending of bones requires the proper rites as like the emperor the skeleton is a holy instrument.

>>530263261
Biomancer is pretty nerfed in this game

>>530231656
You picked the same portrait as another anon who's been posting screenshots of his run.

God I PRAY they add orks in either dark heresy or one of the RT DLCs.

Imagine going full heavy weapon and getting a Flash Gitz's shoota as a weapon.

>>530261540
I imagine rogue trader dynasties keep track of all the bastards they sire, just in case.

>cant start as an unsanctioned sanctic psyker so i can pretend to be a living saint

lame i dont want to be a gay ass sanctioned psyker

>>530263261
He's using all his power to prevent himself from looking his age

>>530264553
Start as the ministorum dude and add a psychic awakening with toybox, silly

>>530262748
Makes the lady elves gush
Notice how Yrliet can't take her eyes off him

>>530264701
its just lame they didnt add unsanctioned as an origin and the only way to get it without mods is when the games basically over

>>530264592
He's maintaining his hairline with constant mental effort at all times

>>530264592
>59
Well his model looks it, not the portrait though

>>530259557
I understand that but she is still murdering in a relatively discrete manner presumably because she cares about being caught which is not what I would have thought a chaotic evil character would really consider or care about

>introduced as a side character
>Becomes one of the most intriguing assets to your ship
>Is a voice of reason
>Understands his lot in life and the crucial role he plays

Zach my boy, this ship isn't good enough for you

>>530264851
>Yriliet is the outcast even among her own clan
>Limited dating options
>Marazhai offers to have kinky, demeaning sex with her because he feels bad for her

Yriliet is a fucking loser. I don't know why raztard decided to simp for her

>>530265068
The astropathic choir also has the best track in the game.

>>530265068
>>Is possibly younger than you
He was just joking I'm sure

i got no idea whats going on with the story in commoragh cause i hate listening to these gay elves

These threads go so fast now and it's all 40slop soul-numbing trash

>>530265563
>Yremeryss wants to use captured farseers for a power grab.
>Bringing psykers to cumrag is a big no-no because they are icky so she has to do it in secret
>Marazhao hates her becase he wants to be the leader of their kabal but is a bitch ass pussy that will job to her in battle so he tries to arrange a kangaroo court to get her killed by kidnapping you and brainwashing you to testify that Yremeryss was selling you info about drukek raids in the expanse (she was, but it was not you she was selling the info to, though marazhai doesn't know or cares about that)
>It blows up in his face because he doesn't take into account your OC donut steel powers, so he's the one who gets punished instead
There's more to it but it's a spoiler so I'm not gonna say

I thought heretic would be interesting but it just makes the story feel completely retarded im still in act 2 i think ill just reroll and try dogmatic

>>530265494
He's not.

>States that most choir members only serve on one ship their entire life
>Says he's an example
>Has only been on the ship for about 20 years

He's extremely talented and he suffered for it.

>>530265875
Cry about it

>>530265210
The other deldar regard Marazhai as a cuck
>There he goes! You know his gf only lets him mount her physically, never merge mentally?
>You know what I heard? She has a mon'keigh lover that she lets into her mind whenever he pleases.
>And Marazhai pretends that he's ok with it!
Yrliet leaves all her boyfriends unsatisfied, she's great

>>530265912
that actually explains a lot, ty anon

>>530266006
I warned you about the heretic path, bro!!! I told you, dawg!

>>530266006
Heretic actually has some genuinely fun and good options for roleplay, it's just the full heretic that's retarded. It sucks.

>>530266076
>RT and Marazhai see each other, one coming into the Yrieliets bedchamber and the other leaving
>Both think "man, I wish I was him"

Marazhai is such a stupid name, holy shit. And what kind of name is Azeriesh? makes him sounds like a pajeet

>>530266065
Nothing to cry about, but certainly mourning.
I just can't understand how 1) 40k is so popular, and 2) how RT as a crpg is so popular.
By "popular" I mean relatively speaking of course.
But I assume a sizeable percentage of people who go on and on about RT here are actually more into 40k than they are CRPGs. That's just a gut instinct thing though.
Maybe it's just me being out of touch with the braindead, plastic-infused zoomer youth. Maybe they see something in 40k that I don't.

>>530265912
I don't get why the court turned on Marzipan, like he didn't do anything wrong by their standards
Seems rigged

>>530266363
>Seems rigged
It was, because yremeryss made a deal with the drukek that was residing over the court. Marazhai didn't know that

>>530266332
>SAAR
>ROGUE TRADER SAAR DO NOT DENY THE CHARGES

>new dlc comes out

any qualms about disposing of Marazhai after i get out of commoragh?

>>530266606
What am I your mother?

>>530266335
It's the characters, everyone likes them. It's fun to shout
>FOR THE EMPEROR
or
>I SERVE THE RUINOUS POWERS
or
>FOOLISH MON-KEIGH
and just generally be silly
A lot of other settings are a bit flavorless in comparison

>>530266652
hope not nigga

>>530266606
I feel bad about it because he trusted me but he deserves it really
Unless he gets a very specific ending, then it's bad for everyone else to let him live

Heretic shouldve been a meme path where you get instantly shot by argenta and get a game over in the prologue.

>>530266702

Solasta 2 will save this general.

>>530266335
>40k is so popular
silly over the top setting with cool aesthetics
>how RT as a crpg is so popular.
one of the few good 40k games and the only 40k rpg

>>530266332
>Azeriesh
Makes him sound like he's from Azerbaijan

>>530266606
There's no reason to keep him outside of wanting to the the content he provides

>>530265068
I like him a lot, I'm sad Theodora's desperation got his cute apprentice gf killed. His resolve and will to go on is beyond heroic considering his PTSD and current-TSD.

>>530267051
>silly over the top setting with cool aesthetics
I felt this for about 5 hours
Played on for another 20 or so
Reckon I'm ok with not encountering 40k ever again.

>>530267148
Cool. Others like it though, so

>>530265494
Doesn't seem that way. This work ages you very fast

>>530266892
The wall of flame bit cranks things up to 11 off the bat and it's a bit silly.

>>530267191
Generational brain damage I suppose

>>530267292
Okay old man, go scream about how BG2 ruined BG1

>>530267292
40k is older than you are

>>530267251
why is it silly? it was obviously divine intervention by the emperor

>>530267684
that's silly

>>530267784
why?

>>530267251
it's important to show to the player that emprah magic is real, no matter how vague or mysterious. if you're making the player decide so early on who to align with, it'd be poor form to show that faith actually does perform miracles too much later

>>530267842
because he has much more important things to do than cover for every Dipshit von Chucklefuck's bumbling about

>>530267684
I mean the choices are a bit asymmetric
Either take the tactical decision and fall back, go full on dogmatard and trust the emperor with a miracle, or trust a warp entity. It makes the iconoclast option the correct one for the vast majority of characters if you're roleplaying.

>>530268017
uhh i dont think you know what a rogue trader is

>>530268072
its a slightly more important chucklefuck with a fancy hat, you're still a nooblet on the other side of a galaxy-wide warp vagina

>fanatic puts their life in the trust of their faith and gets rid of their demon aids
>heretic makes a deal with the first demon they see
>le enlightened centrist chooses the boring option to save some random goons and keep their demon aids

it makes perfect sense

>>530268017
The Emperor protects all

C'mon guys let's settle this once and for all

Heretic or Dogmatic??

Abelard, give /crpgg/ my opinion
>Abelard steps forward and clears his throat
>"FOR THA EMPRAAAAAAR XDDD"

>>530268293
yeah shes a heretic

>>530267878
i disagree with this extremely
faith is not meant to be transactional, that's what chaos is for
that thing is pure nonsense and i'm glad they seldom do it again
>>530268349
that's not what the emperor protects means

>>530268349
well what does he need me for then, lazy bastard

>>530268072
Just like irl Rogue trader is a bothersome noble that the imperium wanted to get rid of without making a fuss, so they """"""rewarded""""" them with a piece of paper that told them that they can fuck off out of imperium and do whatever. It was a brilliant decision really, it got rid of troublemakers without wasting any of the resurces, and if they get to actually achieve something all the better - the imperium will swoop in and take it for itself, becasue that is your purpose, rogue trader, is it not? It says so right there on the paper that gives you legitimacy. So no, rogue traders aren't special. they are glorified pirates that have been given legitimacy

>>530268445
>faith is not meant to be transactional,
why not? psykers even have a whole discipline based on their faith

>>530268698
>why not?
because it's not faith then, it's a transaction. that's, again, what chaos is for
psyker powers are psyker powers, doesn't matter if they base it on dickriding the emperor it's just warp manipulation

>>530268336
Conveniently if you just do what he says you don't get the warp aids.

>>530268293
>why didnt the emperor stop the comically evil lady from dying
gee idk bro

>>530268765
so what would be the point of faith if it didnt give anything?

>>530268797
*leaves Angron alive*

>>530268805
>so what would be the point of faith if it didnt give anything?

>>530268017
The Emperor isn't even aware that he helped you
What he does every day is keep the chaos gods from devouring Earth
But since he's the focus of all mankind's hope and faith concentrated into one Turkish pysker, his soul is expanded beyond measure and parts of him do things that the core awareness doesn't even notice

>>530268864
Trust the plan

>>530268482
Faith without deeds is worthless!

>>530268293
Theodora lacked faith so the Emperor could not see her.

>>530268913
>Turkish pysker
hes a hittite

>>530268876
>>530268765
The Imperial Cult is not Christianity and the Emperor is not Christ. The faith is different.
Moreover, even in Christianity, something is expected in return for faith - eternal life. This is explicitly promised in the new testament

>>530269270
no it isnt

>>530269234
>A'as – Hittite god of wisdom
Lmao they had a god named "ass"

>>530268445
nothing I said involves transactions, rather that there needed to be proof that the faith was for a real thing rather than an invented thing like in irl relgion
imagining a new player, they'd otherwise think that emperor worship is strictly an invented tool to control the masses that they'd be retarded to believe in it themselves

So it seems I got the minor bug where you can't talk to Solomorne before landing on Leethus. A quick google search has people saying this doesn't affect the mission so I'm just going to keep playing because I'm excited to play the new mission.

>>530268445
It wasn't transactional, you just said "for the emperor!" and plunged into the fire and it worked, implicitly because you believed
IRL saints are reputed to have performed all sorts of miracles through faith. Same thing.

Neither of those scenarios are true, desu.

>>530270020
Yrliet haters are reduced to making up obvious lies

>>530238089
Well, yeah, they do

I'd imagine Yrliet's popularity outside of Razard like circles stands on the shoulders of spergs and schizos who can empathize with her.

>>530268293
The Emperor protects those who deserve it

Hours and hours of Yrliet seethe every single night

Does this work?

>>530270894
It's amazing isn't it
I thought the seethe had stopped months ago, but the new players have brought it surging back

>>530271087
I would do this with Pasqal's head if he'd let me.

>>530270745

>>530273261
That was fun

>>530273228
In the grand scale of things - no

>>530273485
Yeah. It's a bit silly

RT challenge run: whenever you get a dialogue option to attack someone you have to take it, regardless of how retarded it is

Argenta's power armour is shit huh. They could have at least made it so second skin worked on it

>>530273780
>the forever alone incel run
No thanks

>>530273878
but anon youre the forever alone incel irl

>>530209276
With enemies this buffed everyone in my team still gets down in one or two hits. Enemy servitors alone have 201 hp and are capable of doing this

I do not remember Chorda having the ability to suddenly take 20 actions when she is at low HP before. She killed half the party before dying to the very next shot.

>>530273904
Exactly. I don't need to be one in my fantasy games too

>>530273616

>>530274783
Rude!
Imagine the pussy musk

Ok here is a really funny bug report. It took me a while, but I found the item interaction that is causing it.

I have Solomorne who is wearing the High Spinner chest armor. This chest armor causes adjacent enemies to make a Willpower test when they enter his proximity.
He also has the "Public Sentencing" arbitrator origin talent, which causes him to make an attack of opportunity whenever an adjacent enemy fails a Willpower test.
These two items have an obvious synergy and I paired them on purpose, but the bug that results from them together is hilarious.
The third piece of the puzzle is the "Prepared Prosecution" arbitrator origin talent, which allows you place Solomorne next to an enemy during the tactical phase, the pre-fight placement phase.
During the pre-combat round where you place your units on the grid to determine where they start the combat, you can actually move Solomorne next to an enemy during this placement round, which causes enemies to make the Willpower test from the Spinner chest armor, and he will actually shoot them during this placement round if they fail it. The funny part is that you can keep doing it endlessly, since you can move your guys around however often as you want during this round. Which means Solormorne can actually shoot every single enemy with his shotgun for free endlessly before the fight even starts. Here is a screenshot of every single enemy in this encounter already half health and on fire during the placement pre-fight round because he shot every single one of them. This is one of the funniest bugs I've encountered.

>>530275441
That's the Rogue Trader's backup gear horde for when you get bored of wearing all the best stuff.

>>530275650
The power of the LEX

I fucking hate pasqal's quest. It's just mindless going through dialogue options and talking to the same two npcs several times trying to guess which dialogue tree now has new options after you've clicked on a nondescrit npc that looks exactly like the other dozen nondescrite npcs.

>>530276049
The talking part is total aids but his quest beyond that is PURE ULTRA KINO

I wasn't a fan of adeptus mechanicus until that point I thought they were boring autistic robots but I finally got "it" after that one

>>530276049
It's a bit dull there but makes up for it once you get up the elevator and reach the finale.
It has interesting ideas but needed editing.

>>530276135
>>530276179
The resolution is great, but they need to change the first part. It gives me cancer every time i do it

>>530276135

Inquisition stooges have no soul confirmed

I like to imagine Ulfar doing silly flips while he dodges everything

I find it funny that Marazhai is the one who gives your crew the pep talk. Gaming conventions are silly

>>530279805
I'd interpret that as beat the shit out of marzipan in front of them

After the twentieth time I destroy an entire drukhek fleet sending thousands of them straight to slaanesh, one would think they would reconsider raiding in my turf.

>>530281542
>makes xeno cum in front of crew
Uh... Not the kind of pep talk I had in mind, but sure, whatever works

>>530281668
They enjoy the punishment

>>530281753
Jesus H Drusus, beat UP not beat OFF. Get your mind out of the gutter and unfuck yourself mister.

>>530281668
drukhari have respawn chambers though, the rich ones anyway

>>530282174
Out of all the drukeks that you kill how many are actually important? I doubt all of them respawn

>>530282147
They cum from PAIN

>>530282174
>>530282363
Even Dracons like Marazhai and archons like his sister often do not have this luxury
I assume 99% of the drukhari you kill, including the ship captains, die for good.

>>530282174
Speaking of. When marazhai told me he wants yremeryss' soul I told him to fuck off, so shouldn't she have respawned by now? Yet these nibbas say she's dead-dead

Oh no, how terrible! Who could have possibly done such a thing?

How long does it take for a tomb world to completely awaken? There are several of them in act 5 and they all have been disturbed by our meddling

>>530282920
>>530282670
Wait, do the niggers that raided your worlds really come there and say "oopsie doopsies please help us not lose our kabal!" if you have Marazhai with you?

>>530283907
Yes, since he is a highborn dracon they think you are his pet and not the other way around.

Not even unfair can stop a blaster soldier->arch-militant psyker

I am actually kind of astounded how hard I stomped this so early.

>>530283907
Yeah

Is there any benefit to handing over idira and the elves to the inquisition?

>>530284135
been awhile since i've recruited marazhai but doesn't that one ended up being a trap to kill him?

>>530284258
Peace of mind

>>530284135
Actually, they react if he wears a mark on his neck. And if you wear yours, too. Something like if he's a monkeigh bitch marz gets -1 to his archon counter, and +1 if you wear the mark

>>530284258
>idira
Makes Jimmy sad
Calcazar won't grill you for having an unsanction psyker in your retinue
>and the elves
Makes Jimmy happy

>>530284386
It would be neat to have a way to make Yrliet the new archon and leave Marzi out of a job

>>530284885
yrilet isn't a deldar

>>530284258
No it's just like unrecruiting them but more larpy.
>>530284936
It would require making her into one in Cumrag, maybe a heretic path

>>530284151
ok newfag we all did this when the game came out can you stop posting cringe now? Nobody ever replies to you, its sad. Have a pity reply and shut the fuck up

>>530285019
I'd do it on any path if that would make her less morose

>>530285019
>making her into one
Doesn't work like that. At worst she goes from outcast to full corsair as some endings.

>>530284151
Have they fixed the bug where the """""""""""""""""indestructable""""""""""""""""" fortifications can be shot to death?

>>530285736
Sad but true.

>>530285803
She already has such an ending with her marazhai bf. I will support anons' idea from the previous thread that they should have been siblings and yremeryss their mother

>>530285997
>I will support anons' idea from the previous thread that they should have been siblings and yremeryss their mother
Thanks anon, that was my idea and maybe I'll make a dialogue mod for it one day

>>530286060
That would take a whole lot of rewriting

>Everything is rot and filth!
>Embrace it!
This Heironymous guy is making some sense

>>530285997
I know and it would make more sense than that or what we got from the actual writers.
A: I can't imagine any deldar accepting her as a leader in any capacity of all things
B: I can't imagine even she's that autistic to willingly jump on that Slaanesh dick for all eternity

>>530285997
>yremeryss their mother
I can see it. She looks older than Marzipan and it would be fitting for him to be a seething mommy's boy

>>530286669
Is your next post about making him a shota?

>>530286669
He already is a seething mommy's boy due to being trueborn, whereas yremeryss is a tube baby. Must sting twice as much then that she's better than him in every way

Harry Lloyd would have played a good Marazhai but he's too old now and filmmaking is a lost art

>/tv/ has arrived
Oh boy

>>530286803
A shota and a dommy futa mommy is a patrician fetish.

Neat, the skulls let you get into the quarantine zone ahead of schedule.

Very strange that most BD abilities don't work with exec. I'd except where it hurts to proc on death from above, scourging strikes to proc on parry from veil of blades etc.

It even has chests with random cargo

I'm playing pathfinder kingmaker right now. Just got to chapter 2. Any advice on the kingdom management part? I don't have anyone to put as an economic advisor and idk where to get one. Idk what to do first.

>>530291484
You get 1 economic advisor soon (either the DLC character or one of the characters you recruit when this chapter's threat starts, look up Jubilost recruitment if needed).

Generally:
>sort out problems first, opportunities later, most projects when you are i ndowntime.
>Annex new areas as fast as possible
>build buildings when you need a few extra points to rank up
>build settlements in regions neighouring your capital relatively close to it to save time sincey ou will travel back and forth and teleportation cicrcles take a wjile
>build the settlement in Dire Narlmarches as close to Pitax as possible, upgrade it to town and build Mage Tower there and your capital, for teleporation purposes
>your companions benefit from an appropiate stat, so for instance giving Regongar belt of Giant Strength makes him a better general
>You want to Raise Community, Military and Divine to rank 3 fast since they unlock more advisor slots
>do not bother with curse research early on
>Build what artisans ask you and visit them ASAP

That's most I can remember right now

>>530291484
You get an economic advisor from a river area near your city (I think its to the west?)
Its super easy to miss and really stupid so make sure you pick him up.
He's also one of the best companions in the game.

Any recommendations for Temple of Elemental Evil? Here's the party I rolled.

I wish I actually got some 18s on Codryn since he's going to be the party frontman for when we get to the actual dungeon. I'm startign to think maybe a higher con would be better.

>>530264110
I mean that's bound to happen.

>>530286323
I have never managed to fully succeed with this quest, it's always go around the shithole zone until you get told about the mutants, go to the mutants, fail the first part but overall complete.

I'm still early enough on the game(RT) to start over. I heard evil path is shit because if I do chaos shit no one bats an eye so muh immersion takes a hit. Fine. IS IT FUN THOUGH??????? Is it FUNNY?

Is this the best force sword in the game or do the later ones also have this mechanic?

>>530292917
Not really

>>530292917
It has some good moments but the real problem is that the game doesn't have enough evil friendly companions because the devs threw a bunch of Imperial reps at you for party members.

>>530292190
>>530292250
Thanks for the tips. I got the dlc tieflings quest but i think the alchemist npc guy only comes up after the main troll quest of chapter 2? From what I've read. And i haven't got that quest yet. I attempted to reach the area that the tiefling girl was waiting at but i got two random encounters with a dragon piece that I'd never seen before that almost wiped my party and i had to return to my capital. This is after finding the big lamia boss in a cave in an area to the east of the capital and realising after getting stomped a few times I'll have to come back later. Is that area just harder? Maybe I'm just bad. I'm on the difficulty above normal.
Also I have the kingdom resolution mod because I've heard it makes Kingdom management more fun. Ive only enabled the stop auto failing events at the end of the month chekc though.

>>530293016
Aurora sword is literally that on steroids and 2h

>>530293165
Also she said she wanted to me to be the only one to know about her secret. Does that mean I have to get the alone somehow? Same with the hot fey forest girl.

>>530292345
I would go for another damage dealer instead of the bard. You already have the wizard focusing on enchantment so that feels like overkill. Also you already have a paladin to serve as the party face.
Reach weapons are super op so maybe a straight fighter with a glaive would be good? Having another solid frontliner will make the early game a lot less frustrating.
idk take my opinion with a grain of salt I got filtered by the moathouse, the final fight in there is a bitch.

>>530294184
Yeah my first run, I got filtered by the toads at the start of the Moathouse.

I'm probably going to install the Welkwood bog addon just to get my party to a decent level before taking it on.

>>530293424
Oh yeah that thing. Doing my first heretical playthrough, I'll see how it goes. Thanks

>>530293961
Yeah those quests you have to go by yourself, its pretty annoying.
If you want to get the tiefling early you pretty much have to savescum until you can get there without any random encounters killing you.

>>530294414
That thing, yes.

>>530294291
Oh yeah definitely use the welkwood bog addon.
Moathouse is annoying af if you go at lvl 1 and no one wants to do the boring af vanilla sidequests.

>>530294460
>Yeah those quests you have to go by yourself, its pretty annoying.
>If you want to get the tiefling early you pretty much have to savescum until you can get there without any random encounters killing you.
Are you able to complete the tiefling quest area if you do get to the area early though? Like are there any high level enemies to defeat as part of the quest?

nwn2 remaster soon!

I am still annoyed that the strength from toughness exemplar talent doesn't qualify your character for the Heavy/Power Armour talents.

>>530296535
both suck anyway

>>530296650
Heavy Armour is the best for Psykers though, I ran around with a chainsaw in the Psyker Breastplate with the gloves that add warp manifestations to attacks and got to like 40 PR in one round. Power Armour does suck though and we better get some Archeotech Von Valancius dynastic power armour in the Necron DLC.

>>530287398
Hes cute. Can he act psychotic though.

>115 hours over the last two week in RT
>not even at cumrag yet

>>530297418
Whats the point of restarting. Just make other characters if you want different builds.

>>530297948
nta but there's fun in watching the build grow and adapt instead of dumping 30+ levels all at once. Also first half of the game is much better than the second.

NTA but I usually choose female in CRPGs because I like to play as the most deceitful evil self-serving character, the neutral evil type, so a woman fits better
In games that are more realistic like cdda and zomboid I play as myself.

40 hours in, time to go to core city

I just got to Decide the cogitator's fate and decided to destroy the machine only to learn this end's Heinrix's entire quest and the game last autosaved 2 hours ago

Yeah this is going to be the one. The game was HURTING for new classes/playstyles. If I do replay I might just make an assault rifle build since I have all these rifles no one uses

>>530302424
Base damage doesn’t really matter. The available two handers with better crit range need a weapon proficiency.

>>530301458
Sounds like a (you) issue, my closeted friend, for you seem to fantasize vividly about it

>>530302424
Doesn't it say if you hover on the I/II thing? Something like added damage.
I guess there's the basic factor of you finding some one-handed weapon cool so you plan to use it and have the option of using it two-handed for a damage boost, if you don't want to use a shield.

>>530302424

You have the most complete and comprehensive toolkit to make and run your homebrew adventures for you friends and it's the best implementation of the best edition of D&D.

Stop romancing Cassia, she's a child!

>Uhm, I'm gonna undertake this suicide mission (how is this any more suicidal than anything we've faced so far btw?) into the tomb of xenos that can one shot me because I really really can't wait to talk to that one person for some reason
Wat. Are they retarded? They couldn't have come up with a better hook?

>>530311178
>it's the best implementation of the best edition of D&D.
how so? does it just implement as much of it as possible? I know most crpgs leave out a lot of spells and races and whatnot

What's the worst way to kill all the companions in RT. I mean all of them, even Abelard or Cassia.

Are rogue traders like mini emperors or something? New to 40k but they seem to be treated like kings within the lands they own. Where is their hierarchy under the emperor?

You guys think we'll ever get a new QFG game after the debacle that was that Rogue To Redemption garbage? The first five games are still pretty great, well, except for 3 maybe.

>>530314656
Think conquistadors.

>>530314656
They kinda explain it to you but basically a bunch of families were given leeway to go out and explore the galaxy to reclaim or claim lands for the Emperor. As it is, they're given more flexibility with the rules and may work with xenos if they see it necessary. That's why the writ is important since it's signed off by the big guy himself.

Should I have sex with Jocasta or wait until I find true love?

>>530312271
It's not about the breadth of options implemented or if they are close to to the ttrpg. If that is what you are after owlcats pf games do an excellent job. It's about how well curated the rules that are implemented are and how the whole thing works inside the games engine. Aurora was an excellent engine and after a few patches a rock solid one. I believe electron is practically unfixable. I don't expect much from the NWN2 EE.

>>530315076
>I don't expect much from the NWN2 EE.
????? nwn2 doesnt run at all on modern systems. What the fuck do you expect? A new dlc? A new romance? Im just happy I will be able to play the fucking game again in a modern resolution and without crashing. Fucking jaded boomer

>>530315024
>That's why the writ is important since it's signed off by the big guy himself.
....The emperor?

>>530314145
Abelard - go heretic
Idira - go heretic and do the thing
Argenta - no bad way for her to go. The Emepror watches over her
Pasqal - leave him to die in commoragh with xenoimplants
Jimmy - leave him in commoragh
Cassia - leave him in commoragh
Jae - leave her in commoragh
Yrliet - let her destroy her soulstone, then kill her or leave her to fend for herself (but that leaves room for survival)
Marazhai - give him to mandrakes, inquisition or the black heart kabal or sacrifice him to the daemonette
Ulfar - get the wulfen ending I think
Solomorne - don't know

>>530314656
No, they are like governors of the european colonies in America. You can do whatever as long as you're not outright rebelling and paying taxes

>>530315335
Yes. Not all writs are signed off by him, some are done by the Primarchs and iirc the High Lords in Terra. The Von Valancius line is pretty special considering that.

>>530315024
>That's why the writ is important since it's signed off by the big guy himself.
It's often not... Most of the older ones were actually signed off by Horus or one of the other Primarchs.

>>530315495
This being the first crpg may be related?

>>530315551
Are you saying that our character's dynasty von valencius existed way way way back to when the emperor was still alive?

>>530315060
>should I have sex with an ugly ape
how desperate ar you?

>>530315417
I actually like 5, it's basically just an epilogue to the first four games and I think it does that well. I disliked 3 for having such subpar Thief content (and Wizard, for that matter) and having a villain that didn't really tie in to the overarching story in any way. 4 and 1 remain the best in the series, of course, with 2 a close runner up.

>>530315495
You make it sound like those decades of vidya touched anything further than space marines.
>But this one game
No one remembers that. And all you'll know from the IG campaign in DOW is BANEBLADES

>>530316043
>You're not that special
Yes, you actually are, it's an Owlcat game after all, and your character is not just special, they are SUPER SPECIAL, and the center of everything in the story and setting, to the point where your actions determine the fate of the entire expanse. The whole theme of 40K where you're a tiny cog in a vast, vast galaxy is pretty much completely lost and nowhere to be found in RT as a result. One of the biggest failings of the game.

>>530314145
Let them read this general and die of cringe

>>530316187
It's only special in a sense that it's old. Rogue Traders are kinda like inquisitors in that regard. It desn't matter if you're new money or old money as long as have a big dick and can swing it hard. The fact that the writ is old is just bragging rights for the most part. What actually matters is what exactly the writ allows you to do

Why are you making this sound like a bad thing? I rather our character be special as oppose to how Larian does their games. They want their OCs to be the special ones to the point where you can't get a certain characters best ending all because you wanted to create your own character

>>530316390
Well, that's just owlscat being bad writers
>>530316447
Abelard would die of cringe first. Marazhai would be the only survivor I think

>>530316672
That's a really bizarre comparison when both Owlcat and Larian do the same thing, they make the PCs ridiculously powerful and important. The only difference is Larian does it multiple times with their Origin characters, though Owlcat is really not that far off in RT, considering the general power level and importance of your companions.

>wtf how could a semi-high ranking member of the inquisition know the coat of arms of one of the 4 biggest players in the expanse that his boss has had dealings with??? There's clearly something else going on!

Something that already puts you on a higher standing in society which is why IG Commander, Noble or some big Crime Lord are origin options. You character was already influential and elite of the society before even becoming a Rogue Trader. Chapter serf is a literally who
So Imperial Knight, other Schola Progenium origins like some higher standing Crusader, Bolter Bitch, Tempestus Scions. Higher standing Administratum guy would fit too, memes aside.

All existing origins should get suborigins at least imo.

I recently was replaying BG1 and 2 and ended up quitting in the Underdark due to burnout and boredom with the point and click combat.

Biggest takeaway is that honestly, the pathfinding is so fucking awful that is makes the entire game a slog to play through. It legitimately fights you at every step of the way, from minute one to the end. Not a single exit area where companions wouldn't get stuck, not a path where one wouldn't go off in the opposite direction. At least once every 15 minutes several of your companions will get stuck inside each other too.

Also BG1 looks incredibly ugly, it really suffers from being the first game in the engine. Wilderness areas can be okay, but as soon as there is a building everything goes out the window.

>>530320416

Where do we go from here?

Aside from Owlcat 40k slop are there any proper CRPGs coming out this year?

I miss when Owlcat at least tried to make good games with stuff like Pathfinder as opposed to catering to the lowest common denominator.

They should bring the character approval system back. It's something that was severely lacking in Rogue Trader

>>530322161
You forgot your image

>>530322161
>good games with stuff like Pathfinder

>ablooblooe schizo is back
Were you bullied out of /v/ threads too?

why is seelah doing this

>>530322223
You know one of the biggest tragedies of CRPGs is that the DA2 system was never adopted in future CRPGs or even better, expanded on. Finally a system where you can actually oppose and disagree with your companions, and you can actually build a relationship of mutual respect while still disagreeing instead of forcing the companions to alter everything about themselves to align with the PC.

>>530300794
At first I was excited to finish the game for its own right, but by act 3 I was more excited to finish the game so I could start a new one and make sweet love to this perfect man.

I kind of liked the Hero U game, but it didn't knock my socks off. I don't know about this Mage one? I saw a trailer of something they were working on it looked .... completely awful. Like mobile tier, soulless trash. I don't even remember details, I think my brain scrubbed it.
I disliked 3 because it was a major hit to my nostalgia, it was the first one I played as a kid so in my head it was a lot more impressive than it turned out to be. I got sidetracked before starting 4, but I'm looking forward to seeing how I feel about 5. The change to graphics was a major mistake, of course, but this was the thing everyone was chasing (and still chases, in other ways, ie bg3) so it will be interesting to discover how I feel about it now so much later.

>4 and 1 remain the best in the series, of course, with 2 a close runner up
I agree with this ranking.

>>530323224
are you new to women in general?

>>530323154
That's what I thought too. But Fragarach is at its best when used by Chaotic Good wielder. And also, since it's the Anarchic sword, paladin will suffer from negative level.

Aside from hilariously low quality cutscenes, the differences from your element in Mage initiation are not as interesting as classes on QfG puzzle and npc interaction wise.

Both DAO had a great origin system and DA2 had a great companion relation system, shame these weren't kept. Bioware just did 2 amazing things and dropped them. I thought when DAO came out that the origins would be a new trend in RPGs where your race/background significantly changes the first hour or two of the game and is reflected later...boy how was I naively optimistic

>>530323259

>>530323796
Apparently they spent all the budget on the Hero U game on the backgrounds, of all things. I really disliked the game in general, not being able to pick your own class and go on a full adventure and being stuck in the university was absolute garbage. I have never heard of the Mage Initiation game, I looked it up just now and it looks like utter trash so I'm never going to touch it.

>>530323954
Why do you think you deserve a reply to a post that was just you whining like a faggot about pathfinding, of all things, and saying you got filtered by one of the best sections of the game in BG2, the Underdark? You are a colossal retard and shouldn't be playing CRPGs, let alone posting about them. Fuck off you attention whoring bitch.

>>530323954
I mean, what is there to discuss?
>25+ ear old isometric game looks kinda ass

And everyone who has played BG knows the pathfinding issues.
Aside from a 'welcome to the club' post, there is nothing to say to that.

There is a reason the QfG poster got more replies than you. Aide from not being a whinging faggot , apparently

Could you babies stop your whining? It's been barely a fortnight since the new dlc was released. Give people time to play it and talk about it. Then you can go back to fellating you pozzfinder waifus in peace

>>530324105
>>530324231
Wait, so I'm confused. They made Hero U, and something else after this?
The QfG2 remake was a third party, wasn't it? It was very well done I'd say, I wonder if that studio has released any original similar games.

>>530324416
They're like a bad roach infestation, but the ones here are particularly bad since they combine 40kiddie nonsense with the worst aspects of Owlcat games (Josh Sawyer was right about romance in CRPGs and one needs only look at the average Owlcat fan for proof).

>>530324278
Yeah for real, imagine if the prologue differing depending on your class selection had become a standard in CRPGs, rather than a feature that even the game series that introduced it dropped in later installments. It adds so much fun and replyability to a game and yet no one else ever did it. Absolutely tragic.

>>530324756
nah, it's based actually

>>530324695
Hero U was the Coles which made the original games. Mangrove or Hymalaya or whatever they're calling themselves now (they have like four names) made Elmo's mine and QFG2 remake (for free) and then Reign of Mages.

>>530324278
RT was also a perfect game to feature unique prologues based on your background. But I've learnt no to expect owlcrap to only do the bare minimum, if even that

>>530324278
I can't think of any game that has done it since. The closest is probably Cyperpunk 2077 and even that is incredibly rushed and poorly implemented.

>>530324927

>>530324695
QFG2 remake was a fan project, yeah, they just updated the EGA game to the VGA standard of the rest of the series.

>>530316943
asking retarded questions is the best way to dig out stock answers no one has questioned the sense of before

>>530324278
It's also just a miracle that DAO released as is. Bioware always plans big features like that. They just don't make it to final game between all the scope creep and development hell.
It's not like they're making bad games on purpose.

I feel like Josh Sawyer and I would agree on romances in CRPGs.
1) They have to be done right or not at all. No player-sexual shit, no harem anime shit, no "pick the obvious answer and now your dollies kiss".
2) It cannot come at the expense of other types of emotional bonding and relationship. Friendly-rival, Mentor/mentee, disrespect-expect-when-beat-in-competition whatever you'd call that, etc.... Many, MANY kinds of possible relationships between characters. Stories spanning all of human history attest to this. Fixating just on romance (every CRPG I can think of with romance does this) so hard feels very ugly and sad.
>You can build friendships with companions

>Josh Sawyer and I would agree on romances
You do know that's also the guy that went on record on how he's aroused by cuckoldry, right?

>>530325485
The problem with this is that Owlcat is bad at writing and bad at gameplay largely (look at the disaster that is the class system in RT when they don't have something like Pathfinder to literally copy).

So instead, Owlcat games must have a 'hook', and their hook is token rote 'edgy' romances that take about 4 hours to create yet will have hysterical losers posting on tiktok for years.

>>530325485
That's not true though, the interactions between Dak'kon and TNO in PS:T, for example, have far more depth and content than most if not all romances in CRPGs.

Given that the success of Avowed and Baldurs Gate 3 has virtually guaranteed it, I can't wait to see what Obsidian's version of Pillars 3 (aping BG3) with a high budget looks like.

>>530326469
Your getting outerworlds 2 little bro.

>>530326093
>when they don't have something like Pathfinder to literally copy
They do. RT is a tabletop game, they just decided not to copy it. And the class system is great

>>530325485
>done right
What does that entail? Everyone has different taste. Anons just want to impregnate women, they don't care about writing. Somebody like Sawyer likes serious and dour.

>>530326469
Half baked, bugs out the ass, no ending and if we're lucky one character contracted and written by avallone that drones more than the rest of the cast put together. Like their every game I'd expect.

>>530326469
I hope it happens even with all these Microsoft cuts though I imagine Obsidian is one of the safest teams there next to Bethesda.

I have a feeling this class is for Solo runs or something.
