>Should Space Battles and ship management be expanded?
No

>>530435118
>>530435058

Right. Thanks, well I'll stick with my character for now, will see what comes out of it

Are RT's companions the best in a crpg ever? I like them so much I'm actually having problems deciding who to pick.

Our new lord inquisitor Anton is much hotter than Xavier.

>>530435798
Give me Inquisitor - Inquisitor romance right now, I fucking hate xenos

>>530435747
I dunno if they are "da best EVAR" especially when it has yrliet who changes on a dime depending on which of her 3 writers wrote that particular scene, but I do like almost all of the companions and dont feel the compulsion to forever bench someone because I don't like or care for them

>>530435507 (OP)
>>Thread Question: Should Space Battles and ship management be expanded?
I want to say yes because it sounds interesting, but every other fiber of my being says no.

>>530435747
i am actually also having this issue
Abelard and Pasqual are mainstays for personality reasons
Cassia is too useful to left, now i have to Juggle Argenta, Solomorne, Heinrix, Kibellah and Ulfar when i get them for the rest of my party

i fucking hate that Commoragh forces you to take Yrliet if you don't kill her, i want to actually finish her quest this time (since last time i sacrificed her to Slannesh) but fuck off with this forced companion bullshit

>>530436139
>Cassia is too useful to left, now i have to Juggle Argenta, Solomorne, Heinrix, Kibellah and Ulfar when i get them for the rest of my party
Didn't bother with any of them past first run.

>>530436139
>not bringing idira and argenta to cumrag (and eachother's quests)

>>530435747
They are sure better than KM and WotR's

What wrapon should I put on my second loadout as arbites for attacks of opportunity? Revolvers or snipers? I'm not ever using shotguns again after the incident

>>530436072
Inquisitors only romance demons

>>530437104
Whatever works best at that time negroid

>>530436072
Damn then you guys would yell fem Jimmy is a hag and not a virgin

>the most unrepentantly evil companions in both pf games are all women(Wendog, Camellia, Jaethal)
What did owlcat mean by this?

>>530437419
>What did owlcat mean by this?
Evil women are hot

>>530437419
They have a evil woman fetish

>>530435350
Pyro doesn't ignore armor and deflection, mental doesn't do shit to robots. They're both good in their way.

>>530437419
>The Chaotic Evil man is literally just some guy that drinks
>The Neutral Evil guy would sooner just kill himself than do anything evil
>The Lawful Evil guy is actually the coolest guy if you soothe his sacrificing boner
I guess there's Marazhai to break the narrative but that's anoher game.

Thanks man

Pop culture trivia: Bonnie Tyler's 1988 hit song "The Best", famously covered by Tina Turner in 1989, was originally written as a musical homage to Jae Heydari.

>>530435507 (OP)
Yes

>>530437419
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So what exactly was Theodora's alignment? Was she dogmatic/heretic? She dabbled in chaos objects, so much that Agenta ended her life for it. I could see the same thing happening to some random anon's RT. Pasqal being the one to put them down.

>>530439018
Canonically it's True Thot

>>530439018
Chorda - Dogmatard
Calligos - Iconotard
Theodora - Herecuck

>>530439219
>Calligos - Iconotard
Ahahaha oh wow
Well, maybe his son is, yeah.

>>530439018
>Actively grooming her psyker pet to become a Daemonhost
>Fucked around with necron bullshit
>Mindwiped his entire crew, even her trusted assistant, to cover it up
Iconoclast 140%.

>>530439374
>dies to dumbest of shit
>fosters a jeanstealer infestation
140% is too little. Bitch went over 9000%.

>>530439219
>Theodora - Herecuck
>Our Rogue trader had to undue her fuckups with either our own or for the better
And then our descendants will have to undue our fuck ups, such is the cycle.

>>530439592
There was a tard involved in making that post at least.

>>530439592
Anon just knows how iconokeks end

>>530439374
>ctively grooming her psyker pet to become a Daemonhost
Wait, was did added post release or in a book hidden away? I didn't use idira much in my playthrough but I don't remember that at all.
Just her not caring much about Idira

>>530439219
>Calligos - Iconotard
?

>>530439219
so the real reason why xavier favored theodora was because they both dabbled in xenos/chaos. it was'nt because they were fucking, you anons lied to me!

>>530439304
>>530439592
>>530439796
Calligos is an Iconoclast caring nothing for Imperium, living only for himself. His recklessness led to him getting exposed and fucked over by Chaos

>>530439516
>fosters a jeanstealer infestation
I bet she fucked some of them

>>530439963
right, right, because when you're on the iconokek path, he joins your crew as a secret companion

oh no, wait a minute....

>>530439974
I bet you fucked some of them

>That one Rogue trader in the Von valancius crpyt who dedicated a whole area to their dead xenos lover
Our bloodline was pretty awesome though.

>>530440328
You were adopted

>>530440106
You save him on a iconokek playthrough and he rewards you for it, doesn't need to be a companion. His naive iconokekism led to him to being used by Chaos but you save him from it since he isn't a Heretic like Theodora.
Each Rogue Trader is a cautionary example about disadvantages of each alignment

>>530440769
Nice larp. Meanwhile Caligobro takes skulls for the skull throne and fucks lizards in his xenobrothel grand cruiser.

I wanna smooch her.

>>530441254
Only if he isn't himself and is unwillingly possessed by a Khorne daemon. He used to be iconokek before results of iconokeking got to him

>>530441603
>He used to be iconokek before results of iconokeking got to him
>First thing he does upon meeting you is hand you an overpowered sniper and asks that you kill xenos with it
Damn, didn't know Iconoclasm was based.

>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.

>>530441603
>i can fix him
Sounds gay. Nothing to fix.

>>530441730
He is already under Khorne influence there

This is how Calligos was originally described

So what are the alignments in RT?
Religious, anti-religious and communist?

How would you improve romance content in CRPGs going forward? The guy last thread had a point that one of the major issues with CRPG romances are that the protagonist is, in a choice and consequences full character creation game, by design a blank slate. That makes it quite difficult to create reasonable and good romance arcs because you cannot write it with both characters personalities and traits in mind. Which is why JRPGs blow CRPGs out of the water when it comes to romance since they have both a a love interest with a defined personality, and a protagonist with a defined personality, which makes things far easier to write. I do not see an easy way to solve this problem for CRPGs.

>>530442667
catholic protestant and retarded

>>530442743
romance content is for losers so I don't care

>>530442651

>>530442667
Retarded, Retarded and Retarded

>>530442667
>>530442752
Pretty much this.

>>530435507 (OP)
is there any effects to beelining it for cumrag asap? my dogtard RT doesn't wanna piss off his daddy xavier

>>530442667
Dogmatic is pure belief in the Emperor and the Imperium at large, valuing the whole over the sum of its parts and being willing to make hard decisions that are harsh, brutal, and uncompromising, with absolutely no mercy to anyone involved. Iconoclast is valuing individual well being over the good of the whole and being a kind, altruistic person in general towards your servants and your enemies. Heretic is becoming a brain damaged moron to such a degree that your retardation spreads to everyone around you.

>>530443248
I think Calcazar does comment on it, so if you want to roleplay like that then go ahead.

>>530443248
>Dogmatic
>Loyal to anyone but the Emperor
You are a failure, turn in your Aquila at the next available opportunity. Also, no, you can take as long as you want or do it very fast and it changes nothing.

>>530442667
Retarded evil, retarded clueless and cartoonier retarded evil.

>>530443619
>absolutely no mercy to anyone involved
Not true. You get dogmatic for both killing the wounded rebel and for detaining him until you verify he's not traitor against you. You also get dogmatic from going batshit aggro the second you find knife ears and for agreeing to fight with them against daemons but under your terms and that's only on Janus.
Heretic is both schizo retarded and opportunistic bully with a pinch of my ass before anyone else.

Only one that doesn't have any place and is there for secondaries and newfags is the iconoclast since it's naive stupidity you won't pick 9/10 because they're obvious trap choices for people who know better.

>>530444260
They literally make dogmatic choices more lenient specifically for secondaries like you, midwit. Most people wouldn't want to be true dogmatic.

>>530444260
>Obvious trap choices
Not really, the only time Iconoclast choices finally started having negative consequences was in the Void Shadows DLC. In the base game Iconoclast hands down has the best effects and resolutions to most quests and storylines, with a few exceptions like Rykad.

>>530444590
Your asshole itching for an engagement that bad buddy? Sorry, no homo. Move along.

KEKAROO

>>530445038
Alright, 4/10 times at the very least for the really dumb ones and a whole bunch that don't make much sense in the context of this setting. Imho they should've just made a semi-hidden corruption meter and did it right, relevant to companions as well.

>>530443787
up to act 4 or 5 there's no reason to think calcazar doesn't have the imperium's best interest at heart. going straight for the throat of the xenos seems like a good thing, no?

>>530445867
>going straight for the throat of the xenos seems like a good thing
Warmaster Horus wouldn't have said it better himself

Has anyone figured out how to Toybox Solomorne's discussion before landing in Leethus in act 4?

>>530445867
It's fine to treat him as a colleague, but you are the Rogue Trader, a direct servant of the Emperors will and the bearer of his Warrant. Treating Calcazar as if he is in any way above you is subhuman behavior not fitting the head of the Von Valancius dynasty.

>>530446232
It's romance-only stuff. If you aren't romancing him, feel free to land on Leethus. It's kinda a bug, your only alternative is to spread your cheeks for him.

>>530446895
uwu

>>530446895
I was worried it might have to do with his Commorag 'bond with Ghaito is fucked' thing.
Oh well, worst case scenario, suboptimal resolution/fucked up flags for the DLC and will do it better in 6+ months

>>530447098
>I was worried it might have to do with his Commorag 'bond with Ghaito is fucked' thing.
his what now
i'm doing that part right now and bought him along, is his questline fucked or something?

>>530447383
Yes.

>>530447098
>I was worried it might have to do with his Commorag 'bond with Ghaito is fucked' thing.
Nah, it happened to me even when I got through the entirety of LI in act 4

>>530447534
awesome thanks homocat

>>530447383
For many companions, whether you brought them on Cumrag or not and how you resolved issues there affected shit later.
I am wondering if the convo in Act 4 I can't do is related

fun battle
I like this boarding quest so far

I dunno what it is about their games but I legit can't drop them

Still shit, huh. Your people getting one shotted or you unfucked your builds?

>>530448953
Garrett is my character actually
Derrek is a merc

>>530449031
>mercs on my ship
This is a respectable vessel of the Imperium. Only loyal servants blessed by His name are allowed in. And I guess a few heretics and xenos, you can't watch every entrance.

>>530449502
Why do you have this image

I decided to try DAO run using a female warden for the first time in my life.
I was thinking about what to do for romance and realised that girls got fucked pretty hard in that regard.
I refuse to ever do any sort of gay or lesbian romance, Zevran has a date with the tip of a sword, that leaves Alistair as the only choice and every path involving him is kind of bad.
First you choose between one of you dying or having your lover impregnate someone else.
Then if you are not human and make him king, you got to deal with the fact that he will need to marry and impregnate a human woman down the line.
Lastly even f you pick everything right by being born as a human or keeping him as a warden you will still need to live knowing that he has a child with someone else while dealing with being almost impossible for two wardens to have a child together.

>>530451265
All I can really say here is
Lol
and
Lmao
Netorase franchise

Overseer Idira with biomancy can give warp speed to all characters lmfao what the fuck is this shit

>>530451029
why are you erect

>>530452497
purple and yellow is a kino combination though
not sure what flag is it supposed to be

How do people not think this is attractive? Only women can reply

>>530452080
Giving everyone just Prescience and dodge makes my squad untouchable.

>>530452497
>Took over 80 hours
Surely thinning your paints doesn't take that long?

>>530451265
You can actually put yourself on the throne as femwarden, and then marry Alistair, cutting out Anora, which makes more sense, because she was a queen consort anyway, not queen in her own right.
But yes, if you want both of you alive you will need him fucking Morrigan.
Which is probably not all that rosy and fun for him, kek.

Yes, it's their best minigame yet. Though we're not getting them in DH it seems, since the game will take place within the confines of a single planet opr system

>>530436072
Gives me strong Cassandra vibes. Cassandra was second best girl after Josephine

ywnbaw

>>530454095
Should I play dragon age origins and inquisition?
I've only played 2
I know inquisition is also shit but it has Cassandra so it can't be TOO shit

>>530445867
He always has Imperium's best itnerests in mind. Where he's nisguided is another story, but he is loyal and dogmatic. Just radical

>>530454343
Yes and yes. They're both worth playing simply for seeing how things go. But if you're going to play Inquisition make sure to mod in that instant War Table mission mod.

>>530454343
Why would you play 2 first

How do I complete the feudal world shit
I did everything and I still can't move forward

>>530440328
Not to worry - I took out the trash and jettisoned it all into the Maw

Wait did they change this mission? Well fuck that im killing everyone.

>>530454343
Origins is good.
Inquisition is either hit or miss. I like it because of the characters.

>>530454663
I was 13 and it was on sale on the ps3 store and I asked my mom to buy it because it looked like skyrim

>>530452649

What have you actually doen so far?

>>530455049
>making shit up
Gotcha.

>>530454343
>Origins
Okay game, certain parts are a slog and the combat is trivialized by Mages, who are simultaneously the only fun thing in the entire combat system.

>Inquisition
Endless fetch quests, garbage empty zones, and some of the worst combat in CPRG history. It is quite bad.

>>530455145
I don't remember it eating 2 Profit Factor before.

>>530454767
>Inquisition is either hit or miss. I like it because of the characters.
I liked the locales, they were fun to explore

>>530452649
She looks like she fucks genestealers

>>530454796
>looked like Skyrim
I bet you were disappointed. I recommend Origins. If you liked 2 then try Inquisition.

I would breed any female Rouge trader portrait.

drank alcohol gotten attacked by mutants talked to the statue guy talked to solomorne who said there was something weird freed the weird dog talked to the cogitor talked to maeve

>>530455302
>I bet you were disappointed.
I was, people say skyrim dungeons are copypasted but when I met the repeating repurposed DA2 dungeons I couldn't believe it.
I was also sold dragon's dogma by a game stop employee on this premise and I wasn't too impressed by that one either, for different reasons.

>>530455328
We know heinrix

>>530455793
Other way around

>>530455328
I bet you would

>>530455328
Even the old black woman one. The one nobody as ever used.

>>530455920
He would. It's fear sex. He just closes his eyes and thinks of Imperium

>>530456115
Actually he writes marzipan fanfic in between playing chess

>>530456115
Then why did he wanted fuck openly in Cumrag.

>>530455956
SEX

>>530456304
He thought he was about to die. Humans are capable of great deeds when on the verge of death

What class should I make my RT for a first time playthrough? I don't know anything about this setting so I figured whatever the tactician/commander class is looked fitting but the psychic thing seems kind of interesting too

post dick for inspection so you get the right reply

>>530455502
Then you just need to start the feast ajnd start the impostor hunt

>>530456704
Officer fits well because the rogue trader is a noble which orders people around, it's also VERY strong once you understand how to use it
But you specifically are made one on the fly and under exceptional circumstances, so you can just be a frontline soldier too

Psyker is not a class, it's an origin that can be slapped on any class. It's very strong, on officer you could be a biomancer or diviner to buff your party, but you get both a biomancer and a diviner companion so there's that.
If you play a more damage oriented character you could do pyromancy, which no companion has.

>>530456763
To what? Fucking the pope?

>>530457098
I feel like Cassandra is better off doing what she knows and likes - being a Seeker. Vivienne can handle the pope thing

>>530457098
Stronk wymin with a character otherwise as deep as a puddle and catering to femboys raised by three mothers and no father figure.

On one hand, jimmy shouldn't have "know no heresy"
On the other hand, my character with 120 INT has like 160 in every lore skill, so there is no real reason to not give it to him....

>>530458018
in lore you just gave xavier's plant an unsanctioned lobotomy

Ok so the dlc is bugged for me
I watched a video and after the mutant attack on the feudal world I don't get the cutscene that's supposed to play
What the fuck do I do now

>>530456704
I'd echo
>>530457062
And say officer because it steps on the fewest toes related to gear your first time through. Your tutorial party has no officer and while you get an officer in act1 she's also a psyker so she's splitting her turns between psyker powers and officer abilities.
I wouldn't recommend being a psyker your first time though. You get 3 by the end of act1 and the gear competition is high. Ability synergies are also overwhelming enough for new players without throwing psyker synergies into the list.
I consider imperial world noble officer to be the canon rogue trader but it can be boring once you get accustomed to things because it's a pure face character.
Having a lot more fun with my current voidborn crimelord soldier.

>>530458430
Reload until it maybe works, toybox, or wait six months

>>530457035
>>530458430
It's bugged. There's no one I can talk to in the city

>>530457736
Cass is a huge dork and melts in your hand though.

>>530457736
Lmao, she's so far from that it's not even funny.

>>530458018
Yeah, but you're not always gonna be there to tell him the difference between an ork and necron, so leave the man alone

>>530458591
restarting the game worked for some reason

Imagine DH gets a female Eldar romance for men without cuckoldry or humiliation...

Why does everyone disapprove of my relationship with jae?

>>530458430
What would game devs of today do if it was like the 90's and it would not be so easy to patch their unfinished (if game is getting dlcs, updates and so on in my mind it's not finished) games...

>>530457736
What does that have to do with Cassandra though?

>>530459120
kys

>>530459124
besides every event with her reading like some power play to establish her dominance over you?

>>530459120
let's clarify
*female dark eldar
with purification option

>jimmy cant use purge soul on the heralds
machine spirits? CONFIRMED FALSE

>>530457736
So what do you want? A weak woman companion in a RPG?

>>530459815
Machines have machine spirits not sovl

>>530459158
To be fair if we were still stuck with 56k modems games would still be tiny as well

Yrliet how about you SHUT THE FUCK UP?
We just learned your kin is bringing a whole ass craftworld in the expanse to wage a revenge war they are doomed to lose

Furthermore, the inquisitor just threatened you, and still you can't shut your dumb fucking xeno mouth

>>530459158
They just move on and pretend everything is fine, like what they did before.
>>530460096
PFKM should be fine, not too sure about WOTR.

>>530459429
All women do that so there is nothing wrong there.

>>530459124
Because Jae is
>An upstart void pirate who actively leeches off the empire though criminal activity
>Clearly and shamelessly ingratiating herself to you for her own personal profit
>Embroiled in multiple turf wars that she drags you into
>Partakes in the cold trade which beyond being heresy also expands the reach of the dreaded Xeno
>Looks, talks, acts and is a whore. Stinky pussy

She's too lowbrow for Cassia, too irreverent for Argenta and Kibellah, too lawless for Abelard and Heinrex, too dumb for Pascal.

Idira is the only one who gets along with her at the start I think?

Funny enough, I remember Jae is actually one of the harshest critics of Eldar. They make nice weapons but she knows you can't trust them with shit

Fish is still cute

"Imagine being lusted over by a primitive beast"

This is why Orks are expanding, and Necronanare maintaining momentum. The Eldar race is the equivalent of a hot girl who peaked in high school and then started doing meth. Literally Metamorphosis the race

First time playing rogue trader, enjoying it and just got to chapter 2 on my palace planet but I think I’m getting bored of my character. I’m a pyromancer psyker but I feel like I’m doing nothing but molten beam. I also feel that being a psyker rogue trader might be lore breaking considering how they’re talked about in game. Anyway, long winded question but what is a more fun class/playstyle? I have both DLCs

>>530454343
these kinds of games are dependent on how much you like the characters in them
i liked origins and da2 because i liked the characters in them
i did not like anyone in inquisition

>>530460796
You'll spam up to three offensive abilities no matter what you play.

>>530460672
You aren't understanding. In a GAME, why would want a party member/romance interest who has zero agency or ability to get anything done for herself? I can't even think of a single romance in a GAME where the girl has no power.

>>530460069
>whole ass craftworld in the expanse to wage a revenge war they are doomed to lose

>>530460481
>Regicide with Humans as pieces
Abelard confirmed as fake Iconoclast.

>>530460971
Neither are you. Why would you need to have muh mandatory romance in the first place and why would forced controversy or guaranteed coomer or incel sales (and you know both of those are a thing) give them, the devs, a free pass from making it a GOOD or at least a better game.
And no I don't have a problem with romance being included, but if you do, give it the budget and the focus it deserves. Don't just cast a wide net with dozen shallow as fuck but intentionally diverse (both in character or otherwise) usually bisexual characters and have your game be a boring slog.
If it's a VN make the story good. If it's a hero with a big sword make the dragon scary and the sword fun to swing. And if you absolutely must include gameplay in the first make it better than tetris. If you must include romance in the second make sure your gameplay is solid and at least make it interesting and give us the option to fuck the dragon.

Now tell me how's that not fair.

>>530463051
The problem is, how do you write a satisfying romance in a game where the protagonist is, by necessity, a blank slate? You cannot have the kind of interactions you need to have to make a romance satisfying with that as a base, which is why romances in CRPGs have never evolved beyond their initial form in BG2. If you want actually decent romance content, play JRPGs, where the protagonist has an actual identity and therefore can have decent romances written for them.

why doesn't the ship rebel when you go heretic

>>530463724

>>530464204
That's a very solvable issue anon.

>>530463995
Just barely. Combat sounds like roll-slop

>>530463724
Why would he have to be a completely blank slate in the first place? It is a roleplaying game after all. Just make the story focused enough so you can guide your decisions and allow for wiggle enough so you actually get to grow in the role. What's wrong for example with how the original Witcher did it?

Heh... Amateurs.

im just hoping the expanse game will let me enact total belter death

>>530461103
I think her misery and seething are cute

>>530464715
El professinale....

>>530464495
>Why would he have to be a completely blank slate
Because creating your PC from whole cloth is one of the selling points of CRPGs. You either have to sacrifice that aspect if you want well written romance content, or keep things the way they are in which case all romance in CRPGs will always be bare bones, basic and simple stuff since you cannot effectively write a good/great romance where only one character has an actual personality and identity.

>>530461543
Bladedancer. You can get 4-5 additional resolve per kill.

>3 different fleets can't take a planet
>Calcazar is forced to send me

>power fantasy game is a power fantasy

>>530465048
>you cannot effectively write a good/great romance where only one character has an actual personality and identity.
Isn't that what most of these games following that same BG2 romance formula are doing? So why force it in the first place then?
The only two characters that must be good are the villain and the shopkeeper since you'll be seeing a lot of the later and if the former is a clown, and not the scary good clown either, what the point?

>>530464731
Why? They dindu nuffin

>>530465260
It's almost like Owlcat deliberately makes everyone around you a retard and incompetent so your PC can be even more super special than they already are, or something.

I deserve solasta 2 NOW.

>>530465440
>>530465353
>spits on your ship
Cassia gonna freak!

>>530465382
Because people want romance content. It really does sell games and as an additional bonus, it drives engagement and discussion about the game as well. Even this place discusses romance content and romanceable characters far more than any other subject. Yrliet is mentioned and discussed at least 10x as much as Pasqal is, despite Pasqal being the much, much better written character.

But since most CRPGs will also not deviate from the blank slate, player created protagonist, romance content will remain in its lackluster and barebones state. Basically CRPG developers have painted themselves into a corner on this over the years, they can't remove romance without losing sales and angering a portion of their playerbase, but they can't really make the content good either due to the constraints on how CRPG protagonists are written.

>>530460790
Unironically her craftworld just happens to be especially retarded.

How to trigger solomorn quests after act 3? I've picked him up from the prison planet since I didnt take him with me to comoragh. I have not had any quests pop up ever since

>>530465813
>e

>>530466292

>>530466095
It triggers when you can go to Eupfrates

>>530459120
GW employes would gladly saw off their limbs just to deny young men their wishes. There will either be no romance or it eill have humiliation that will top Yrliet's

>>530466095
You will get a call from dargonus
But some people (me) are experiencing a bug where you can do the quest but not his personal side of it, meaning I am waiting for the hotfix

>>530465991
Sure they can. But this is easier. Why make three separate really good campaigns (and sell them as DLC if nothing else) that follow different (well) defined characters in good stories when you can make one generic mishmash and the biggest difference is picking that one line tagged for retard friendly [DOGMATIC] or [EVIL] every so often and few dozen lines from your "romantic interest" you won't see otherwise.
And no, I'm not shitting on RT in particular. I do actually like the game despite all its faults.

>people want romance content
You telling me a good El Cid or Ivanhoe game wouldn't be well received? Come on. Forced controversy sells the games more then good (romance) content. BG3 could've beat Shakespeare and Byron put together but people would still talk about getting cucked by a bear. You don't like it? What, you a chud homophobe misogynist? No, I just want a good goddamn game.

>replayability
Yeah, that's why there's one-two builds on one-two characters repeated since launch. The only new build that came since then is when they introduced kibbles and only because it's batshit powercrept.

Swan song, I know.

>>530467885
>but not his personal side of it,
Shit, I finished the dlc but I don't think I did his quest. I thought going to the planet and then palace of justice WAS his quest

>>530468139
I don't know how it works, but there is a sub objective BEFORE you go to the planet that reads "I should talk to Solomorne, he seems distressed", the issue is that he has no new dialogue, and going to the planet fails this objective

I have NO IDEA if he has actual content that comes from that or if its just a conversation, I am waiting for the fix so I can confirm.

>>530468110
I mean ultimately you're arguing that having a defined protagonist is much better for a games writing, and I don't disagree, I just don't see CRPG devs having the balls to do it.

>>530468296
I see, well, I'm not gonna replay the entiree game again just for this. Will wait a couple of months for the big update they promised and then anothe couple of months for them to fix all the bugs that come with the new update. His ending seemed fine to me

You can use shield overload to remove cloacking and then just ram them in the ass

>>530469819
>Camellia is my favorite waifu. I even [am a cuck]
Yeah, we figured as much.

>>530468406
Yeah, I'm just tired of this current trend and that same bioware formula they even diluted since. You're saying people are talking about muh romance and waifus and shit because they're good? Brother, what else is there to talk about that hasn't been said 40.000 times already? Even the shitposting and the bait for that has been regurgitated to nauseum already. You ask would you like a weak female companion instead. Well, I don't give a flying fuck whether they're male, female or an attack chopper but if you must include them at least make them somewhat reactive and with a character that can't be described by their skin, gender, hairstyle or two words. But yeah, just make dozen of them in slightly different flavors instead and you'll tickle someone's autism enough so he defends your shallow ass game to death for free.

What's really depressing is that there are unironically people that eat it up and don't know it could be so much better.

Whenever the RT spins in his throne or takes a private conversation in his office I like to imagine that Kibellah is somewhere in the shadows, or even just propped up on his lap, silently intimidating anyone who speaks to him

>>530471009
>hour 100
>you're the new chair

>>530470220
I'm saying people talk about romances and waifus because they are a central focus of the game for them. If people cared more about combat and character building in CRPGs rather than self insert protagonists who get their dick sucked by their companions and imaginary love interests, we'd still be playing Wizardry games. It's just the reality of how the genre evolved.

>>530469819
She's certainly the best written romance option in an rpg ever

>>530464407
Isnt it just a mass effect clone but with better source material

Guess the game doesn't really expect you to fight here. Too bad I'm an Arch Militant chad.

>>530472184
Dunno, they've cited so many game as inspiration (dark souls included, because of course it is) that it feels like the game has no identity and that they have no idea what they're fucking doing and what they want it to be outside of NEW MASS EFFECT YOU GAIZ.

>>530472184
Mass Effect didn't have any source material and still ended up one of the greatest games of all time

I can't believe this cutscene is unvoiced
Why even have a cutscene when you don't have voice acting, owlkek you hacks

>>530472184
>Better source material
Citation needed, this setting sounds like absolute garbage from what I've read about it. Apparently the author fucked up massively after the first 2-3 books or something.

>>530473051
Truly. a legion of poets

>>530472184
What but from what I read Expanse has no aliens and humans only explored our solar system. It seems more realistic sci-fi.

>>530473051
It's to show how much they absolutely threw the chaos plot to the gutter at that point.

>>530473860

>scene 5000 better if you ignore the character it's made for

>>530474661

>>530474684

>>530474661

>>530475431
>Schizo enough to have visions of a rare artifact from a Living Saint that is actually real
Something something Emperor's hand guides her actually something something

>>530475431
>everyone else is better than CSM
idira imploding and fragging everyone in a 3 mile radius with the matyrdom perk while summoning 20+ demons doesn't count

>>530475397
Yeah the writing for Yrliet is 100% garbage through and through. There's never a point it gets better. Her personal quest is the worst written companion quest in the game. Her interactions with the rest of the party are the worst written banters in the game. Her dialogue chains about both herself and Eldar in general are the worst written and least informative dialogue chains in the game. FFS you learn more about CW Eldar from talking to Marazhai than you do talking to her. I cannot fathom the faggots that actually defend this character, she is the worst thing Owlcat ever made.

>>530444260
You get icono points for acting like Caiphas Cain would

jae would get completely floored by a CSM.
>>530476307

>>530475970
>FFS you learn more about CW Eldar from talking to Marazhai than you do talking to her
You seem fixated that "well written character = you learn about their faction"
That is completely irrelevant in fact
Do you learn about the organisation of the sisters of battle from talking to Argenta? Not really. Do you learn about how the inquisition is run by talking to Jimmy? Not at all

>>530474661
Chaos marines are jobbers and Aurora is a girly name

>>530475970
What's insane I intentionally ran up to her on the first meeting and went ATTACK. She pulls a smoke grenade and bugs out. Then I see her, call them all beasts, mouran talks some shit, I talk some shit back and I get that screen up. At no point did I say anything remotely friendly or picked any option other than to attack her when given and I'm still given TWO options to recruit her and make her attack other knife ears.
How does that work?

>>530476504
Yrliet isn't well written with or without faction lore taken into account.

>>530476664
I'm still confused why he calls himself Aurora. I was full on expecting some woman but no, it's a fucking Chaos Marine

I'm so horny at work anons. Constantly daydreaming about Calcazar plopping me repeatedly..send help I have 5 more hours here.

>>530476698
Just her writer trying to force her into your retinue so she can do her super cool and unexpected betrayal later. Retarded beyond belief.

>>530475431
Abelard too, he's just an old man
Beating Aurora's ass is just item #56 on the seneschal's list of jobs today. He really needs a holiday.

>>530476894

>>530475970
Eh, she's ok.

>>530476894
The betrayal was boringly obvious too because eldars always do that
The real twist would be for her to remain loyal and it's always wormtongue who is responsible

>>530473071
It mostly depends on what you like.
The setting tries to be more grounded without humanity inventing FTL, but it has its own problem with the engines being impossibly efficient.

>>530477543
It turns into Stargate lite in 3 books

Do the data sticks in Eufrates do anything?

>>530473998
It is more realistic sci fi
And the setting is better written and more interesting than mass effect's despite that

>>530477972
Yeah, I think I would've preferred it without the protomolecule doing that, but I didn't hate it.

>>530476756
>m still confused why he calls himself Aurora. I was full on expecting some woman but no, it's a fucking Chaos Marine
thats the point. you thought you killed aurora when really you just killed a body double

>>530476756
They're all aurora. You also get to be the aurora.tzeentch is very creative

Does Pasqal have anything interesting in eufrates? I have the remote party commentary enabled, but still some options are not there if you don't actually bring the companion

To beat this lad without destroying the plasma generators for the achievement (I saw someone getting it here and wanted it) Cassia would be more beneficial than pasqal to the strategy.

>>530479579
Yeah definitely, that's an important planet for him

>>530477543
The epstein drive is a handwave required for the setting to work and be interesting without impossibly long transit times. The problem is the protomolecule which while it makes an interesting plot at first it devolves the story into typical space magic after the first story arc. So the expanse is pretty good until that point.

>>530480054
Then I will remove Yrliet and hope her armor pen is unnecessary

If Nexusmods is still alive in a year, they really need to crack down and ensure people posting shitty AI mods are using AI tags.

spoilers....both for the base game and the new Lex dlc so don't read if you haven't played both

Theodora was a heretic. The Lex Imperialis dlc reveals that she had an elaborate plan to steal the entire tithe from the entire koronus expanse. She was also in possession of the same glass that the heretics in the rykad system were using to conduct their rituals, and for some reason she was interacting with it during the incursion on her ship, which implies she was doing something with it during a crisis. Additionally, she was instrumental in the plot to commandeer necron technology, and she murdered hundreds of her own loyal crew to keep it a secret. She is very much a heretic for multiple reasons.

>>530439789
when she "discovered" idira she made sure she could keep her as a pet unsanctioned telepath and not send her to get sanctioned, and according to idira she encouraged/enabled idira to be careless with her psyker stuff. iirc that dude in the final dungeon that reveals how she mind wiped the crew says something to the effect that idira got more chatty with the voices under theodora's command and wasn't always this bad when she first joined theodora's retinue

>>530487887
Who's manipulating who

>>530439018
she's profit factor aligned. she thought she could dabble in chaos shit and rip off all parties involved in the whole clusterfuck that is the deldar/chaoscult/necron/Inquisitor stuff going on

>>530487953
>nuke Rykad Minoris.
I'm an iconotwink and I nuked it
Initially wasn't going to but Heinrix made the case pretty convincingly using Facts and Logic
Haven't gotten to the genestealers yet but I'll consider their case on its merits

Did Owlcat ever give buffs to the Noble origin or is it still comically weak at support compared to any psyker school?

>>530439789
>>530488363
It's also implied a bit with the "ghost" Theodora is bothering Idira in the macrocannon bay

>>530488675
I didn't nuke it on a first run and the stuff you get isn't really worth it, you can get a thing that makes 1 exploration event easier and save some people, but the planet becomes a permanent daemon planet. if you know anything about genestealer cults you know that there can't be any mercy for them, because they'll end up perpetuating the cycle and create more cultists/genestealers.

Dogmatic is opposing chaos and other enemies of humanity by clinging tightly to the imperial creed.

Iconoclast is opposing chaos and other enemies of humanity by rallying your peers and instilling a belief in the human spirit.

Heretical is betraying humanity by embracing chaos.

Iconoclast does not have to be anti-religion, you can still love the Emperor, you just don't adhere to the creed and the law, and you find it distasteful how the Imperium treats it's own citizens. You would rather inspire people and encourage them. It sounds nice on the surface, but the problem with Iconcoclasticism is that chaos thrives when its enemies are lenient. If you are tolerant, chaos laughs at you and takes advantage of your tolerance. So it's being nice now at the expense of long term efforts against the true, real enemy, which is chaos.
Everyone wants to be Iconoclastic because it's human nature to try to help your peers, but 40k as a setting has an enemy faction that thrives when you're nice, so dogmatism is necessary.

>>530489713
On the other hand, chaos also thrives when you are overly severe, perfectionist, and bloodthirsty.

>>530489713
>we NEED to be uber grim dark and feed the peasants mold because we just have to Okay!?

>>530489364
Could be but he has some neat stuff in his collection

>>530489075
Psyker is still overtuned compared to everything else because it's psyker. The question is more why do you need a fourth psyker in your party when the game is already piss easy?

this was cute

>psyker is the best origin
Lol crime lord moggs

>>530490341
It does make a more interesting story.

>>530489713
Half the iconoclast options are just "send coffee and food to the workers"

I'm closing act 2 at level 34 (lmao) in a heretical run (with 2 blade pieces). At which point do I forge the heretic blade? How/where do I sacrifice yrliet?

>>530490331
Tech Priests doing power of friendship speech is the best

>>530490331
Gelato is beginning to irritate me

Crime lord soldier breaks the game.

>>530490679
Gelato. Can't a man love his cyberdog.

Iconoclast has cool stuff like using the power of VVILL to tell uralon to fuck off with his warp skype call, and pick yourself back up in cumrag because your friends and dynasty are counting on you

>>530490247
I want origins to feel like they mean something. There's no reason why ALL the origins shouldn't be as expansive and build changing as playing a Pysker is.

Describe Yrliet's appeal

>>530491409

>>530491409
She's challenging, she doesn't want to like you but you win her over just by being yourself
Unlike the other girls who are falling over themselves to pursue you, yes even Cassia

>>530491353
Origins are just background. If anything psyker is the outlier because it ads disproportionately more than any other, and everyone agrees that if a change were to be made it's moving psyker into an archetype.

>>530492349
>you win her over just by being yourself
lol
lmao

The "I win" button never fail
My officer's turn hasn't even ended and Kibellah killed the boss and 3 chaos marines, now for the second phase.

>>530491353
>>530492436
Psykers are just in an entirely different dimension than any other because they're fucking psykers: they're walking gods among men.

>>530492510
Yes I know
But she starts out like
>Ugh, if I must
then later she's like
>elantach you seem stressed, let me help you relax
and
>you are MINE, stay away from that fish woman
and later still
>nooo don't hurt him *throws herself on you*
So you might find it silly but that's why some people like her, it's a classic tsundere progression

>>530492328

>>530492436
>moving psyker into an archetype.
This will be the case for DH apparently

Is there any actual time limit in act two or can my rouge trader just explore the entire map?

>>530494361
No time limit

Urlaron bros... I don't know if what's going to happen is according to plan....

>>530494910
I ran out of dealths from above after killing the boss and 5 enemies... seems like I will have to end my officer's turn...

fuck off with your cringe already

>>530495225
But anon.... this is the designated cringing thread

>>530495225
Sorry....

>>530495542
Ignore him
Non-image-posters don't get a vote

I'm so excited to finish this playthrough and start another. That's how you know a game is truly good. I think I'm going to be a sanctic psyker with officer into servoskull overseer, wielding a staff and buffing my allies.

I also have a coop save with one of my friends and it's fun but it's going at a snail's pace. We're still in chapter 1 after 3 weeks lol.

>leave eufrates
>situation obviously critical
>speak with jimmy
>no dialogue
>speak with pasqal
>no dialogue
Yeah I can see why people say act 4 is unfinished.

Just finished crimson tide of tehtyr, a popular neverwinter campaign made by the guy who made the tyrants of the moonsea and doom of icewind dale premium modules.
There's a huge army of orcs and goblins heading towards Tethyr and you sign up as a merc to join the campaign and defend the country. It does a pretty good job of making you feel a part of a bigger conflict. Its cool seeing the huge groups of soldiers gathered at camp or marching alongside you.
The writing is decent though pretty predictable wow the guy with the evil looking portrait and black armor is a traitor, what a surprise.
There's some nods to bg2 which is kind of cool, a lot of the campaign is your army defending Suldanessellar as its caught in between the two armies. It doesn't feel too nostalgia baity though, there's callbacks but its still its own story.
Gameplay was a bit too easy They throw too much op gear at you imo and the enemies don't really keep up other than a couple boss fights near the end. Anything with some fighter levels will prob have an easy time.
Overall it was a fun ride though nothing super amazing. It was worth the 15 or so hours it took to finish.

Speaking of NWN I remember hearing about a NWN2 remake. Was that a fever dream or is it real? I see nothing on steam about it.

I liked that game as a kid but when I tried it recently the controls and interface felt dated. But remakes sometimes update stuff like that.

>>530498463
>sanctic psyker with officer into servoskull overseer
you'd be better off going raven. the servo skull will only extrapolate officer abilities, of which voice of command and air of authority are the only, truly useful abilities to extrapolate and those don't really need to be on the whole team at once. the raven relays psyker powers to the team and will relay offensive psyker powers to enemies with overcharge.

in both cases, santic is probably the worst pick for psyker disciplines. its what i've been doing lately and the servo skull swarm is entirely fucking pointless in combat. even with overseer-specific abilities, the swarm does fuck all

>>530499869
Its coming out soon but it looks pretty shit. From what little they showed in the trailers its a minor graphical update and thats it.
Also its made by aspyr so thats already a red flag.

Da whispas tol' me a secret ;D

>>530500580

im on the dlc planet
what the fuck is this shit

>>530500956
A feudal world

So is Solomorne a good companion

why is her character model so hot but her portrait is so ugly?

prime I play a role, composite I go to sleep

>>530501536
>hot

>>530501857
Time to play some roles anon

>>530501536
Her model looks like a boy, that's probably why you find it hot

Argenta's quest lacks meaning
>I'm looking for the One Star
>I found it! It was a set of armor
and that's it
No real subtext

I literally reached salis prime 60 seconds ago, I open the general just to get immediately spoiled on what the relic is.

>>530502743
:D

>>530502743

>>530502743
I'm sorry anon! I deleted my post, maybe that will help you forget.

>>530501521
no

>>530501857
857 is a prime, you have to play the role

>>530501521
I don't know I was replaying rt and then got sidetracked playing Genealogy of the holy war and thracia for the first time.

>>530503126
Forget what?

>>530501536
Is this just really dedicated bait or do you genuinely believe this

Should I go to euphrates 4 first before talking with calcazar?

>>530504237
They will tell you to fuck off

I assume this is the start of Argenta's romance. Didn't get an achievement for starting it though. Maybe because Cassia's already started.

>>530504494
argenta doesn't have a romance

>>530504494
You're almost there bro

>>530493412
That can't be Yrliet
Her tits are too round and her mood is too cheerful
Must be some other outcast

Does she actually offer anything?

Does Cassia work as an overseer? I want to get her a cyberbird as a pet

>>530505054
She can brew you recaf
She's not lying, that's what she does

She also pours you amasec
They give you a small buff

>>530505283
I gave her one, it's not like it matters, you should always go all in on navigator powers on her

>>530505430
I'll do it, GS is boring frankly and overseer is new and interesting

>>530502064
>>530503273
Truth by consensus, I guess I better play a role

did you get rid of the stone, like an idiot?

>several superhumans who are also dogmachuds are standing around in a circle waiting patiently for a chaos ritual to complete
Ah, the old cutscene magic.

I dont know why people shit on ai so much
It is a blessing for making portraits

lmao

Give me exactly 1 (one) reason why Marazhai wouldn't have been better as a girl
You can't

Do asians exist in 40k? Or some east asian equivalent?

>>530510881
I shit on it because I'm a stickler for correct nomenclature

>>530511361
Yes

>>530474661
By the time you're fighting heretic astartes, the amount of bullshit gear you have makes you several times more overpowered than them
Including the fact that you're named, too

>>530511239
As a girl he'd be edgier Wenduag basically and yes he would be much better
Yrliet would be better as a man

>>530511361
I think all the races are there but you rarely see them
The bartender girl on footfall appears to be Asian

>>530512269
Honestly I disagree
All Eldar are always better as women because you can overlook their incessant insufferability that way

>>530511239
So elfcels like yourself can never get elf pussy

I actually made it to act 4 in wrath

>>530513775
Congrats it sucks

How many people actually can play WOTR on the two hardest difficulties at all? NEETs that play it like it’s their job for a year? It’s borderline impossible on normal, 100% impossible for someone going in blind without looking anything up or knowing pathfinder.

>>530512501
Come to think of it they usually are women aren't they
In the Dawn of War games it's always some lady farseer and a space marine

>>530514607
farseer are always wisened middled aged men

>>530513886
No it doesn't you cuck

Orkpussy chads we can't stop winning

>>530514606
Hard is fine if you know anything about 3.5e. It's literally a difficulty that warns you not to play it if you don't know the system.

>>530514708
>Taldeer
>Macha
>Caerys
>Idranel
I've never seen a male farseer until RT

DARK HERESY RELEASE THIS YEAR OR I WILL ACTUALLY COMMIT SUDOKU

>>530515631
The one from DoW 2 was hot. I like her cunty millenial hair

fuck, it's still all RT slop

anything non-RT in the thread? I can't skim past another hundreds of "IM DOGMA" shit

Tough choice, but the damage bonus on the two single swords is 28% each so I think those are slightly better for that reason.
Her STR bonus is 7 though so the STR bonus to two handed isn't too shabby. And it's not difficult to have the two hander negate all armor since we have lots of armor shreds in the party....
hmm....

This game has more fun itemization than a lot of games I've played.

>>530512417
This girl

>>530516527
Wait the level cap is 55?
I thought it was 50

>>530516308

What do you mean by "if"? He only has 2 ranks of dogma, while she has 3. And he's an Iceman, not Hotheadman

If im don't have anything that can stop healing how am I supposed to beat the vampire boss in solasta?

>>530487715
I still don't know how to maker that happen. Played the game almost a dozen times and nothing. Yes I bring them with me for the quests

>>530517353
Just bring them both with you to Cumrag and go with the obvious dialogue choices

Eldar are the least exotic pet you can find

>>530514606
I struggled with Kingmaker on Normal a long time back, though after most of the game-breaking bugs were fixed. It was my first exposure to Pathfinder, and at times I thought Normal was crazy hard, and did some custom settings.
Never actually finished Kingmaker now that I think about it, but I have fond memories of the story I did see.
Anyhow, started WotR on Core and it was a struggle at times but knowing the system helps a ton. Things like "Restoration sounds ok" vs "Restoration is pretty important".
I'm kind of steamrolling on Hard in my 3rd playthrough, but really 99% of that is understanding the mechanics: what's important what's not, is this 'stun' worth trying for on this enemy, what defense of this enemy should I try to target
I don't really have an interest in Unfair but I might try it if I ever do another playthrough (azata or aeon most likely, maybe legend). I think "Normal" is correct for new players and "Core" is good for when you 'get' the mechanics pretty well but also want to just do whatever's cool, and still be challenged.

>>530499415
>meanwhile the game

Caligos Winterscale's eldar side girl is a farseer, not an outcast, and she lets him hold hands whenever he wants

>>530517439
This doesn't work

It would be interesting if an honest poll were possible, about other crpgs Rogue Tourists have played and enjoyed, vs just being 40k retards.

>>530517793
Calligos Winterscale has a harem on his ship where he can fuck all the pussy he wants. He doesn't want to. He just wants to kill xenos

>>530517793
CHADligos is something every von Valcucksius Lord Captain wants to be but can't.

Now that the dust has settled, what do you guys think: Heretic vs Dogma
le fish wife-oo

>>530517793
I think he grabs them by the pussy

>>530517849
It's a total impossibility that people in the crpg general could be playing multiple crpgs

>>530517840
What else do you need to do

>>530518028
Trve........

"Valancius" does not sound germanic enough to be prefixed with "Von"

>>530517849
I've started Tyranny yesterday. Only did character creation, but the game looks cool. Unfortunately it's rtwlop, so I'll see how it goes
>>530518173
... I've already told you that I have no idea since I've never been able to achieve that outcome, anon

>>530518028
shoot I forgot the computer spirits thing

Nobody asked how she got here two days later.

Although we don't need to, since the answer is just the emperor put her where she needed to be.

>>530518221
It's 40k. All humans are mutts

>>530518338
She probably called Vigdis on the combead, and she send the shuttle after her. This is one of those things that desn't need to be spoonfed

>>530518250
I've never had an issue with it. However I think Argenta has to be on the relatively sane path where she ends up leading an order herself.
In that ending she holds up Idira as an example of someone saved through newfound faith
You can't have her a bloodthirsty purger of heretics or a sister repentia
So Idira has to have a good ending too where she quits drinking after the whole "summoning a ghost" fiasco

>>530515631
Anon, your Eldrad?

>>530518510
DId both of them too. Still not enough

>>530518338
It's not Argenta. It's a warp clone

>>530518572
I love this art. Eldrad looks human. And extemely tired. Like he has a disagreeable wife to go home to after a day in the office.
Also look like Hugo Weaving Elrond. Probably intentional

>>530518572
Not in any games as far as I know.
I was talking about video game farseers, it's always a girl so as to create the desired attitude from the player: annoyed with their ambiguity and willfulness but prepared to tolerate them

>>530518338
So powerful! What a speech, I'm ... I'm just on the floor, praying to The Emperor
Amazing, I seriously need this framed.

>>530518572
What's he up to these days? Do him and Emperor keep in touch?

Really, you all could probably keep a /rtg/ alive.
Despite the single response, I'm still pretty certain a large number of posters don't care at all about CRPGs and are more into 40k. Which, great.
Come up with an OP, I really think you'll have enough to talk about to keep a general alive.

>>530518942
We already have a general, anon

>>530519095
>I'm cancer and I like being cancer
Really, you should consider /rtg/. Might get more people too who could be searching for 'rogue trader' and be happy to see a dedicated general.
You could specify the OP to be news specifically about RT and assorted 40k stuff.
Seems like a win to me?

>>530519252
Could work! Why don't you try starting one?

>>530518942
It's amazing that you continue to not actually talk about any crpgs while bitching about people not talking about crpgs.

>Pozzfinder tranny pretending he cares about any crpgs other than pozzfinder

>>530519303
Help me draft an OP, I'm happy to.
Give an example template. Anything upcoming, previously released, any links that are especially relevant (wiki, trailer, etc)

Jae is the best romance option because she gives sex whenever you want.

>>530519425
>Edition
>News/Upcoming
>DLC
>Other 40k
>Other resources

something like this would work

>>530519772
if anyone has something especially for Other 40k, or Resources that would be helpful

I have only romanced jae, do the other romance options let you fuck them whenever you want?

>>530520396
I believe its like that since Pathfinder Wotr.

Is gloomhaven any good?

>>530520396
Yes, even Cassia.

I like the way she runs

>>530520756
I’m so used to stupid “one romance only” in RPGs that I was confused when the first one I fucked continued flirting and wasn’t mad after I fucked someone else
I’m the chosen one, I should be allowed to have a harem

>>530522435
They'll only put up with it to a point
Eventually each of your side pieces has a showdown with you and demands to be promoted to main girl

You literally get to fix idira, she should have been romanceable.

>>530522896
She's too vulnerable. The power dynamic would be off

>>530523134
Didn't stop them from making kibbles, she actually just worships you.

>>530523942
Kibbles is surprisingly hard to get close to. She'll let you fuck her but becomes evasive when you try to get in her head

aren't we one of the og lines that got their warrant signed by the emperor how are we only the twentieth? shouldnt we be on von valancius number 100.

>>530524378
Some VovValancious probably sat with the warrant and a halo device somewhere for 2000 years

>>530524378
Yeah must be a mistake. Could try to rationalise it that a cadet line took over at some point, if one rogue trader died without heirs. You know how say the Tudor line died out so they were succeeded by the Stuarts with whom they shared an ancestor. So maybe you're the 20th of the current line of Valancius

>>530524378
Assuming it's 19 RTs X each living for 300 years = 5700 years of rule. Not enough, even assuming each managed to live for so long

Another reason Yrliet romance sucks ass:
When she invites you in her spirit world at the end of act 4 as you head to the dimensional gate, it loads the scene after you stop the ritual (since her spirit world is technically in Quetza temer'.)
So you enter the planet in a state where the elder stand there, Calligos is dead/crippled or whatever and you cannot leave

The universe punishes you in every way

>>530526210
>since her spirit world is technically in Quetza temer
No it's not
Yes it looks like it because they cheaped out
But it's meant to be her mind garden which just happens to look like blue Quetza Temer/Janus

>>530526931
I know it's not. I meant it's an instance in Quetza temer, hence the bug

>>530526210
What is it about Yrliet that actually mindbroke people like this?

>>530527019
Oh sorry now I'm with you

>Pasqal will remember that

I sat for a long time not knowing what to choose, but then I remembered I'm a dogmachud and suddenly everything was clear, and I'm pretty sure it's actually the correct choice.

What a fun storyline.

>>530527779
I chose the opposite and I wasn't particularly happy with the outcome. I think you chose right.

Nooooo this sequence was fun as fuck, why was it so short? I'd love to control different teams with different units more often. Kotor 2 had this often and I loved it.
In fact games should encourage making mercs and different teams and not dissuade from it. I should be able to make my custom squads and send them on missions. Dark Heresy could work like this, with you making your own Acolytes and sending them on missions Xcom style.
Both Pathfinder games should encourage build autism and team building too. Being in charge of Mercenary group in them with strategy mechanics fitting mercenaries would be great instead of large scale kingdom/crusade management which does not fit skirmish games like crpgs

There's only one space elf I need

It almost happened. I was just 4 digits off from failing a 99%.

99 is not 100. Important to remember.

>>530529124
>99 is not 100
But 99.9999999..... is

How do I debuff psyker?
Telepath is a given for blind and rupture but everything else looks lackluster.
Enfeeble damage boost is just drop in the bucket unless I'm missing something

>>530529553
Unironically don't bother. Why debuff when you can kill?

aaaaiiiieeeee

I dont think I can play through act 1 again for the lex imperialis dlc bros

>>530530370
Walk bravely first into darkness bro

>>530529781
I'm respeccing idira and I don't esnt yet another character mowing down hordes. She's getting the AoE stun though

>>530530608
I did my first playthrough when the game launched and forgot all about it by the time the 2nd dlc launched and my gigantic brain decided its time for an another playthrough. Skill issue

>>530530608
Act 1 goes fast once you know what you're getting into. Even footfall goes fast

>>530530741
Don't get me wrong, she can get some decent debuffs from talents but imho I don't think it's worth bothering for 99.9% of the game. Instead of those couple of aliments you could make her more competent with firearms or indeed much better at both support and attack at the same time.

>>530530608
I always like Owlcat's smaller scale act 1's.

>Sargona has a dark eldar gf

>>530531729
>pyro pirate in a shitty frigate
It's almost like they made them a commentary on the RT

>>530531729
Do you think they hold hands or nah?

>>530529394
In the 1994 X-Com you can, under the right conditions, have more than 100% chance to hit and still miss.

Finally here. Mundus Valancius.

>>530533024
Yeah, if there's something in between you and them since the shot path is simulated. What you're saying is closer to nucom.

>>530533383
I wonder if the name is just a coincidence

let me guess, you need more? Im eating so good its unreal

Thanks Jae. I always wanted my own dickwolf.

You don't sound very appreciative, shereen

>I only needed to save FIVE planets, alright? Dynasty complete.

>>530526210
Are you guys ever gonna stop crying about this shit character? Just play something else god damn.

I like giving kibbles a shotgun

>>530470234
She's like a cat.

Not spiky enough.

*dodges*

>>530536264
Calm your tits marzipan

>>530536937
Cute

Dang, an extra shot every turn on the sniper character sure would be awesome. I sure wish our sniper character could wear this awesome lategame exploration reward armor that would be perfect for her style of combat.

But unfortunately, she wears some dinky armor with no buff because she doesn't want to wear armor that was manufactured by a monkey.

One more for the book of grudges.

>>530537409
>combat buffs instead of their base statistics

>>530537738
It's more that it doesn't fit her because of her twink-like figure

>>530537738
Tricky defense would boost her even more

>>530537738
>combat buffs instead of their base statistics
And he's not even doing it right

I keep making myself play WOTR because people say it’s the best, but I’m halfway through act 3 and it just never gets good.

>>530538089
Do you get to challenge the emperor with that psy rating?

>>530538357
Meh, if you dont vibe with your mythic path it's pretty bad. Lich is the best one so maybe try that if you like necromancy it's really cool and only like 3% people ever played it which is a shame.

>>530538357
>because people say it’s the best
Let's disregard this and no task who these people are or why you listen to them like gospel
>I keep making myself
What kind of life led you to become like this?
Or were you just born retarded?

>>530538385
Dunno but you do get to cope how it was worth it juggling bounty hunter mechanics for 10 minutes before the actual fight ended in 10 seconds.

>telling a level 5 dogmatard that you would break the rules of the imperium and of the death cult for personal reasons
*BLAM*
So sad. You hate to see it. I guess I have to romance Jimmy now.

I wish owlcat would realize that crpgs don't have to be 1 billion hours long to be good.

>>530539761
I like them. You can stick to your tiktoks if you dont want to play a long rpg

>>530539761
>long
>doesn't even have ng+

>>530539965
When every single one of their games has a lackluster second half that was clearly rushed maybe they need to trim the fat a bit.
If they made a more focused game without the filler they'd be able to put more effort into the encounter design and balance.
But owlcat fans would have meltdown if they made something other than another 200 hours of buggy slop.

>>530540612
Encounter design is pretty good in general though. As for balance I'd rather have the game be broken in ways that's fun to break then astroturfed into no fun allowed everything is a slog. Bear in mind there are actually fags out there whining about the game being too hard.

>too much fluff
But why? Nice introduction to newfags, nice nod to nerds and a fairly good pacing with balance of roaming around doing fuck all you want with focused scripted missions.
I'd just wish they had a semi competent QA on staff.

>>530539761
>>530540612
people keep buying DLCs to make the main game even longer so I think you've already lost this battle

>>530539761
RT is not as long as the previous 2 games, though the 2 extra dlc will push it to 100 hours

>>530539647

>I don't follow gaming news and barely play anything anymore so I don't have any opinions and probably won't even play DH.
>The biggest problem with Owlkeks is that they have no idea how to design game systems. They'll remove momentum and inevitably heck up something else. I have no hope for Owlkeks delivering actual good gameplay with real tactical depth unless they copy paste a tried and true TT system like they did with pozzfinder. They should hire Sawyer to deliver a masterclass on how to make mechanically good games. And I'm also sick and tired of Owlkek infantile """writing""" where they fellate the player nonstop while throwing waifubait cardboard cutouts designed to appeal to grease incel manchildren who have never sniffed a woman at them.

>>530542443
Why are you being a mouthpiece for a scat lover?

>>530538552
I was born retarded but also became more retarded over time. Especially after Covid.
>>530538545
I stumbled into some azata(?) one that wants me to plant garbage in the ground 30 times. I wanted trickery since I’m a rogue, but I didn’t look up what triggers it which is apparently required to get anything but the one I have, angel, or demon.

I am replaying VTMB on the gog version, the unofficial patch 11.5
Don't really know what is happening but both sewer skips are missing, the old version and the new one. Anybody had the same problem in the last few years?

>>530542712
I did it normally a few months ago, so I cannot help.
I did use no clip a couple times , like for that retarded 'swim in the vat quickly' thing

>>530539761
I think the entire audience is NEETs and YouTubers. Playing a few hours a day most days a week, which is honestly an insane time commitment to do indefinitely, it would take actual years to 100% WOTR.

>>530542874
And how many hours per day are you currently committing to shitposting?

Hot take
Long crpg's should come with a built in quick start option where you preset key options and flags and it jumps you to the second act.

Cassia...

>>530543316
Like passwords for old games

>>530543168
18

>>530542037
I know I'm not gonna be getting my way. Especially after the way people reacted to the wotr dlc that wasn't part of the main campaign. Not that stuff like through the ashes was some masterpiece or anything but its sad that people completely dismissed any dlc that didn't add more bloat to a game.
People already complain that the second half of these games drag and most people don't even finish a playthrough yet they still clamor for more content on top of that?

>>530543316
The flags in any long crpg are already always such a fucking mess. I can't see it ever working properly.

>>530543316
This is actually a really good idea. I’d replay more of these branching path games if it were possible to skip the parts that are the same, which is always at least the beginning.

>>530542443
He may be an insane schizo but he has a point

>you have the biggest cock in the room for once

>>530543825
I like long games I just don't appreciate all rpg devs making garbage later acts every single time without fail
maybe they wouldn't all be such a slog if there weren't things like house at the end of time that aren't fun for anyone sane

>>530435507 (OP)
Playing through Divinity Original Sin now. Started with Tactician cause mama didn't raise no bitch. Wasn't too bad at first, but now I'm level 5 and I feel like I've hit a brick wall. Every encounter feels like complete bullshit, and I have no money to buy new equipment with (I also haven't been stealing because I'm RPing my characters as straight-laced heroes). I also don't have anyone who can craft worth a damn. I don't wanna restart like a shitter, but I feel stuck and like I wanna restart. But I also don't wanna go through all the early parts again, cause that'd feel like a slog. What's the play here?

>>530544473
>What's the play here?
admit yo momma raised a bitch

Owlcat should allow RT to build his own Speranza

>>530544601
You just cheese one of the fights that seems easiest.
How is it compared to 2? I want more of 2 but I’m afraid 1 will be too jank or something.

>>530544601
My general advice for playing original sin is to not play original sin.

Fantasy/AoS elves > Deldar
Vect is cool though, I know GW removed a lot of the skimpy women he has in his harem but it's still canon in my head that the guy fucks human females regularly

>>530545736
I'm not sure Vect's dick even works anymore
Didn't Marazhai cut his in half?
Trueborn are rare for a reason

One thing I find refreshing about neverwinter nights is that a lot of the modules are on the shorter side. They're often straight to the point and never really have time to have a dull moment.
Its nice having these short and sweet adventures I can make a character for and run though over a weekend or so when most crpgs take weeks to finish.

I swear this was the high mark of the entire dlc

I'm going to reroll as I'm not finding my psyker enjoyable. Gonna do a commisar but undecided on what "class". Should I be bladedancer, ranged gun dps or a more sword and board upclose tank.

>>530548937
cumslut or semendaemon

>>530548937
Bladedancer is too undignified for a commissar

>>530549042
Yeah that was my thinking too. I'm leaning towards sword and pistol instead.

>>530549034
coom before you post

>>530549117
Sword and pistol is good, shields have seemed underwhelming so far

>>530549245
Sword and pistol it is. Time to kill some xenos

>>530549245
Bullshit. Shields are straight up busted.

>>530549479
Maybe I'm not wielding them correctly

>>530531729

Whatever you choose, you can respec by talking to the High Factotum character on the bridge and asking for training

It's clear now that yrl*et is the one with the problem
I just started replaying and Muaran is incredibly rude to her when you meet him first on Janus, so I think she has a reputation as a nuisance

>>530533625
"Mundus" is High Gothic for "world". Presumably either the system was named after the noble house, or the noble house named after the system.

>>530549965
To be fair, fars*ers are in no position to judge anyone

Hah! The xenos cannot comprehend our "primitive" human technology. I suppose Aeldari voidships are operated by singing control songs to a tree made of crystals or some hippy nonsense like that.

Why is every male face by Owlcat always wrinkly and ugly looking?

>>530549547
They add a separate chance to avoid all attacks (including self inflicted psy and warp damage for some) that can't be reduced as long you're not on your ass. They give deflection without heavy armor or talents. They have a 0AP offhand attack that doesn't count toward the attack limit and that can be changed to aoe. They do counterattacks almost better than either the bd parry or vanguard stance with no class, somewhat work with them and for no ability or talent required and straight up better if you spend a single common talent and get two additional counterattacks (that can be procced unlimited times per turn and do aoe) that count for all your on hit modifiers like versatility or crit increase on attack.
And then you look at some of the special ones and see oh, that one gives temp wounds on block. Huh, I can give it to abelard and have someone fire a whole lot of 0 damage bursts at them. Suddenly abelard vanguard hits for ~500 damage pre crit, pre exemplar on unfair.
I wouldn't call them the best shit ever but they're sure as hell not underwhelming.

>>530544601
>I also haven't been stealing
You're fucked then
Get a reduced level scaling mod sp you don't have to upgrade your equipment every other level to not get oneshot

>>530550506
>voidships are operated by singing control songs
Well it's not like we're much different

>>530550506
Yrliet, you buffoon, you fool. I can certainly see why your kin failed to avoid the minefield in the first place.

>>530550506
I love this bit
She's so helpless and cute
And the outcome when you do get the eldar ship on the horn is funny too

>>530550754
Yeah but imagine missing an 85% chance?
What are the odds

>>530550625
Your detailed post has convinced me to give shields another try

>>530550506
holy shit
she is your pet xenos

>>530550986
>What are the odds
15%

>>530550986
playing underrail, 95% is a 1 in 5 chance
70-80% is a miss

50% is an 80% for some reason

God there are practically no good talents for Operative Overseer. So much shit scales off Fellowship.

>still talking about Rouge Tarder
how? why?

>>530550754
See, this is how you do it. You have to roll low.
Unfortunately the ship had no survivors. Yrliet is once again torn between blaming humans for her race's problems, and the grudging gratitude for fact that I tried to help. The xenos are such mysterious creatures.

>>530551576
The DLC came out two weeks ago
This game is VERY long, many people are still playing it

>>530550986
About 3 in 20 I'd reckon

>>530551132
You do you man but I can't see something that has a whole lot of features and mechanics otherwise locked behind specific archetypes or talents or abilities bundled together, situationally even improved compared to them, and that can be used by anyone other than pasqal as bad. And with a healthy dose of additional tankiness because why not. Now sure if you take a GS or two and end everything before they even move a lot of that is irrelevant but the same is true for most other things in the game.

>>530551576

Which character in RT should I continue? Both are in Act 2, just cant decide who I want to beat the game with first. I have a typical pyro-> BD -> Ex screen melter Heretic. Super fun, but takes any challenge out of the game. I also have a Int focused heavy armor vigilant arb going soldier -> AM that is also pretty strong. He's a dogmatic sledgehammer for the Emperor with a soft spot for innocents caught between him and the anvil, so he has a few iconoclast points. Dual wielding shotty's is pretty fun and doesn't completely break the game.

>>530553135
Continue taking meds

>>530551576
Are you retarded? Game was already 100+ hours long, with 2 dlcs is even longer, it will take non neets weeks to beat.
By the time all people here will finish their playthroughs, Dark Heresy info will be dropping which means more 40k talk.
And once that's done 3rd dlc for RT will be announced, prompting people to replay it once again when it releases.
Then Dark Heresy will be released followed by 4th RT dlc and maybe announcement of a third season of dlcs for RT. This may happen in reverse, but either way it means more 40k discussion
Rogue Trader and Dark Heresy will be then alive simultaneously, played and discussed both and getting dlcs

And I almost forgot but soonish big balance rework for RT will be released as well, thus facilitating further discussion about RT in this short period of drought between Lex Imperialis and DH/3rd dlc. 40k won't leave this general until end of this decade at least.

>>530554603
based 40k chads rule this general

>40k won't leave this general until end of this decade at least.
It's funny because its true.

Did I fuck up Argenta's quest?

>>530554603
The thing is RT discussion did die down to regular crpg levels between this dlc and the last one so this retard is just pissing and shitting himself over a couple weeks of recent release discussion.

Can I fashion this into a buttplug for jimmy? Sanguinala is coming up.

>>530554603
>40k won't leave this general until end of this decade at least.

>10% of xeno artefact cargo
I know a couple of lads on footfall who will pay for this beauty...

>>530556343
pretend that I'm retarded for a second and explain to me what "% of X cargo" means please

I am never doing that round 2 Xanthir fight again. I was not expecting him to instantly drop all his swarms again right on top all my ranged guys who might be able to actually damage them and him.

>>530556343
>she wasn't useless after all

>>530556250
I merely told her that shooting first asking questions later is not the wisest of strategies
>>530556423
If you add it to the cargo it will be 10% of a full cargo of xeno goods
Those cargos are what you sell to merchants for reputation, basically it's telling you how much it's worth

>>530556548
So your cargo has a max capacity? Or does it means I need 10 of those to get "a" cargo of xeno goods?

>>530556715
>Or does it means I need 10 of those to get "a" cargo of xeno goods?

Does kibbles or solomorne get any interesting interaction in comorragh?
I need to drop somebody for Jimmy since I'm killing the elf

>>530557058
cringe and dog whine

>>530557058
Kibbles has some good stuff going on, she has an existential crisis

Solomorne is kind of boring, he gets mad his dog gets mistreated and that's about it. He tells you his backstory and it's very uninteresting

>>530489713
One of the things that's odd to me is that they didn't make Ulfar Iconoclast, if any Space Marine chapter fits that conviction path, it's the Wolves since their whole dispute with the Imperium is how heartless it has become.

>>530557776
He was supposed to have the furfag conviction but they didn't manage to implement it in time

>>530511239
Women cannot pull off being a narcissist half as well as a man can. They cannot pull off mockery and rage a tenth as well as a man can. They cannot pull off the will to survive at all. They cannot be "Mr. Steal Your Girl" whatsoever. And all of these things are crucial to Marazhais character. Marazhai would've been terrible if he was a female.

>>530511239
No appeal to homos and overlap with kibbles

>>530557776
Because ultimately, despite Iconoclast being just Chaotic Good, reverence to the Emperor however the character would call them, is still dogmatic and Ulfar still has that in spades. This alignment system doesn't really work frankly.

>>530558128
I tire of this false accusation against the Space Wolves, they are just Vikings, that's the main theme of the faction, the furry stuff is just a meme, it's no more real than Yvraine X Guilliman or T'au femboys.

Holy shit Solomorne sucks
I just got to the bridge fight and he's super bad

>>530559058
You're just baiting for furry porn

>>530558216
Marazhai is none of those things desu. And Yrliet makes more sense as a man already, no need to change anything

>>530559058
I hope when Owlcat finally does a tau it’s a woman and she looks how they’re supposed to look. I want to see the meltdowns.

>>530559202
I can fix him.

>>530559280
No. I like the Wolves, they're one of my favorite factions in the game, and I am sick and tired of people claiming they're "furries" because of retarded secondaries that know nothing about them and just spam dumb memes and regurgitated trash that has no actual basis in the lore. As I said it's no more real than all the other bullshit stuff "fans" have come up with, like the Eldar X Human fanart, the T'au gooner bait, or Abhumans like Felinids actually being a real, relevant thing instead of a footnote. It's just bullshit.

>>530559461
He is all of those things.

D-daddy...

Are the Tau in 40k? They are the only cool thing about the setting

Vyatt should have been romanceable, she is literally everything jae is pretending to be.

>>530560001
>Are the T'au in 40K
I assume you mean Rogue Trader, right? And no, they aren't. It's possible but highly unlikely they'd bring one in during the next DLC pass but I doubt it, since Ork is more requested than T'au are, and if they add an Ork companion they can also use the model for a bunch of combat encounters as well, which makes them all the more likely.

>>530557398
>>530557397
Good to know, I already don't care for the dog mich other than to fuck with solomorne

>>530560279
And your response to my pointing out only retarded secondaries with their meaningless fanart and fancomics believe these stupid things, is to post a meaningless fancomic. I rest my case.

>>530560496
Now tell me about how much you desire to get knotted. Furfag.

>>530560045
Fat guys assert dominance

>>530560339
>an Ork companion
would that not be too much of a stretch? why would an ork take orders from a Rogue Trader? d/eldars are smart enough to scheme and have plans on their own, but why would an ork not smash the MC at the first given opportunity?

>>530560654
Because you could play as a Ork in RT tabletop and people want them

>>530560654
Weapons, loot, fancy hats, constant battle? Freebootaz ie mercs are a thing and once upon a time there even used to be officially sanctioned orks in the imperial navy as well.

Anons I haven't played RT ever since it came out
Never got to finish it because, in true owlcat fashion, the ending was bugged
Has there been many changes, aside from bug fixes?

It's my first time and I know nothing about the game. Should I play normal instead?

I didn't know anything about PF either but I was able to make it through Core.

/rtg/ when

>>530560892
Sorry anon I didn't pick divination. How about you just give it a go and see how it goes?

>>530560654
Have you never heard of Da Emprahs Greenest? Seriously though, there are rules for Ork Freeboota characters in the TT RPG, which is what RT is sourced off of. Ork Freebootas will work for anyone, they're simply still Orks and not that reliable or trustworthy, but a savvy RT can make it work as long as he remains aware of what he's dealing with. There are rules for T'au characters, as well, so they are also still a possibility.

>>530561003
If they go somewhere else will you actually post about another crpg?

>>530561003
LMFAO. I remember that one. Not as awful as bg3 general but even THE frog avoided it still.

>>530561003
What would you talk about without RT. There's nothing new!

>>530560496
You're trying waaay too hard nigger. Take your meds, pull that stick out of your ass and recognize it as a good natured joke that it is. Where do you think shit like angry or pretty muhreens came from and why? Fags around here have been taking the piss out of this for years and good on them.

Every day I thank god for making me not buy space marines.

>>530561910
It's not a "good natured joke" it's retarded secondaries who know nothing about Space Wolves forcing a dumb meme. If you wanna engage in furfaggotry discussion fuck off to the Sonic The Hedgehog fandom.

>>530562172
40k prices are beyond ridiculous

>>530561586
Sure. I might even see other people post about crpgs and respond to them, instead of skimming 1/4 of the thread then just giving up because it's so tedious

>>530561003
This is just an owlcat general with the occasional pillars anon. Just accept it
