Thread Question:
Do you prefer crpgs that put you in a position of politcal power or crpgs that focus on being an adventurer?

Can I just say it guys?
Chaos totally SUCKS

GOBLINS KEEP WINNING

the funniest glitch just happened to me, the guard dodged the shotgun into one of the forcefield walls that knocks you down and damages you and just kept running into it until he died.

>Do you prefer crpgs that put you in a position of politcal power or crpgs that focus on being an adventurer?
Kinda neither. I do prefer political stories and rubbing elbows with powerful people, but I hate being oc donut steel very important messiah that will save us all.

>>530841583
Loved the second game. Never played the first or third

Took me until act 3 of wotr to realize it’s better to do/grind random encounters because it’s free XP

>>530841156

People seem to really dislike the new theme
I don't think it's a masterpiece but personally I like it.

>>530841821
Being a nobody that’s just around/helping the important people is the ideal. I’m a loser so making me important is immersion-breaking.

>>530840504 (OP)

Both. When you walk through the entirety of the hero's journey on your own through struggles and pain it's the best.

>>530843856
Imagine the smell

>>530840504 (OP)
if owlcat made full voice acting for rogue trader a slc I would buy it regardless of the price

>>530844872
It's implied in any male romance

>>530845362
That seldom leaves enough game time to explore political power, the game ends up being an adventurer with the plot telling you that you have political power while actually you do not

>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.

Are the robocops something they added to the setting just recently and thats why theyre including them as dlc to all these warhammer games?

>>530846064
Nah. They added them ages ago since Dredd is cool.

How's the difficulty in RT when comparing it to the Pathfinder games? I finished Kingmaker on Unfair, should I go for Unfair here as well?

>>530847582
piss easy compared to pf

>>530847582
Yes, if you play pathfinder on unfair you will destroy RT

>>530845692
it probably wouldn't be profitable but i'm genuinely wondering why voice acting post launch as a dlc has never been tried for one of these games. I really doubt it's a matter of public reception because at this point people get that full voice acting is just prohibitely expensive unless you're insane like the folks at za/um were.

>>530847582
Yes
Unfair here will likely be too easy for you
It's still fun though regardless

>>530847317

Finally beat the final boss of the underrail arena because I managed to go into stealth and out of combat in the middle of the fight kek

Okay so this Edge of Daybreak is some gimmick fight that I'm not making a mistake with right? I'm not actually expected to do 2 damage a pop with ever attack right? The guide I looked up to confirm that which says it took him 90 minutes is just mistake right?

>>530858252
problem, chud?

>>530858252
I mean, that's a realistic portrayal of shitbull owners

>>530858465

What did you expect from cops

>>530859140
>The guide I looked up to confirm that which says it took him 90 minutes is just mistake right?
The writer of guide is a retard, and so are you ti seems. As a general rule of thumb, if you feel that something is not right with how the enemy reacts to your actions (too little damage, too much damage, constant counterattacks, too much dodging, sudden moving etc) it's best to bring up that enemy's character sheet and study its buffs and passive abilitites. That way you will understand why it's happening and how to counteract that. In case of the Edge he casts a protective shield on himself that will block almost all damage untill you kill one of his goons. Which one? Examine the goons to find out

>>530859140
Disregard >>530859839, I want to see you beat the Daybreak first and kill the goons last

>>530860102
Well I can't sadly because I died and the game last autosaved an hour and a half ago and I don't want to play it anymore

I cant decide who I want to use in RT
This is the first crpg in a while where I kind of like all of the companions
Are there any besides Abelard that are a bit more iconoclastic and not turbo puritans

>>530860302
>not furiously quicksaving at every opportunity as a preventative measure
It's like you've never played an RPG released before 2010

>>530860630
I assumed that the game would maybe have the decency to autosave somewhere in between 3 boss fights

>>530846064
GW was making minis and games for 2000AD. They made Judge Dredd game as well. When they made 40k they used sandboxy space fantasy Rogue Trader game and setting Rick Priestley worked on before he even joined GW. They included rules for all minis they created, including Judges which is why they exist in 40k as Arbites. On top of this 2000AD is a friendly company basically and they rip off each other and share writers.
New Arbites minis were made more than 2 years ago. Lex Imperialis was announced year ago at RT release. Fatshark decided to make Arbites class recently by reusing Sienna Necromancer friendly npc mechanic. They only showed up in Darktide and Rogue Trader. GW doesn't care about vidya to the point of making crosspromotions let alone forcing any dev to create something.

>>530860630
>It's like you've never played an RPG released before 2010
B-but what about his ironman achievement cloud autosaves only run? kek, we a dying breed brother

>>530861295
>Playing a largely RNG game with Ironman
I genuinely don't know how people do it since one random shitty roll can just end a 2 digit hour run. Sure you can prepare but some random shit can just snipe you out.

>>530861650
Dunno. I liked FTL and I do like the more recent Voidwar but you finish a run in that in a couple of hours max. If I'm supposed to spend 10-12 hours to see a slight variation on a scene you can bet your ass I'll just reload to an earlier save and play it differently from that point instead. And that's not going into something that's so stable and bug free and not held together with prayer and spit like your average owlkike game.

>>530860421
idira. she tends to make snarky remarks whenever a dogmatist goes off or needlessly punishes the little guy. yeah she's heretical but its only out of desperation, she isn't all "praise KAOSS" unless you turn her into a daemonhost.

>>530863207
Don't mind if I do. Either he will regain his faith in the emperor or will get a bullet to the face. Either way is fine with me

she doesn't care for iconoclasm, in fact she doesn't care for anything at all
just a arrogant nihilist more fit for heretic runs than anything else

>>530864574
They really weren't sure where to take his character really. If you want to go full schizo, the writer really just wanted someone to use for their demon romance.

>>530864574
gay, they were doing gay

>>530826879
Finally someone I can agree with

>>530864749
dangerously based

>>530864749
why the gay nigger from outerspace?

>>530864574
Well, surely he's a really strong character since you kept that shield since Act 2
Right?

>>530842859
It's alright but I greatly prefer the VS theme

>>530857167
That's a horny fish

>>530864636
>she doesn't care for anything at all
Wrong! She cares about letting you know just how superior she is to you

>>530865679

>>530864328
>>530860421
Idira is only heretical on paper because she doesn't have a psyker licence
She never expresses approval of chaos, she always calls it foul and evil
So the iconoclast crew is
>Abelard
>Idira
>Jae
>Yrliet (she's outside the chart really)
>Argenta (yes)

>Argenta
>Iconoclast

>>530865653
She got to the erotica section of the library

>>530860421
>surrounding yourself with yes men
The best part of alignment autism is converting people to your side

>>530866178
>She never expresses approval of chaos, she always calls it foul and evil
in the prologue she's the devil advocate companion for the chaos option because you need someone to rep it. you could probably chalk it up to warp theodora manipulating her, after her event early in act 2 she basically swears off of chaos
>>530866393
she likes orphans and the fact she has the potential to befriend idira speaks volumes. in her order ending she ends up preaching about idira as an example of a redeemable heretic

>>530866568
This doesn't strike me as the kind of game that allows that. Any time I have made a non-dogmatic decision or statement, any dogmatic companion with me has sperged out.

>>530866393
She's suitable for an iconoclast team
Because she ALWAYS wants to do this nice thing
>Oh lord captain do let's rescue the survivors
>Lord captain think of the children!
Iconoclast can still praise the emperor, and that's all Argenta is particular about

is it true you get a roman tomboy gf in this game?

>>530866796
no you get a brown QUEEN gf

>>530866604
>in the prologue she's the devil advocate companion for the chaos option
Yeah true. Seemed a little forced honestly

>>530866796
yes
>>530866874
also yes

>>530866796
Yes but the brown queen is a much better gf

>>530866913
honestly I'm just glad she wasn't the retarded chaos koolaid type of character. uralon fills that role nicely and I don't have to drag his ass everywhere with me

>>530866981
You can have both

Master Tactician or Grand Strategist? There are too many feats and skills for me to sift through and compare and I'm already steamrolling so I doubt it matters much what I pick anyway.
What is more suitable for my officer Lord Captain?

>>530867219
GS seems bland to me

>>530866796
You the the options between a tomboy, a amazon and big titty Cleopatra.

>RT is the ships bicycle
>wanna grab all romance companions to Cumrag
>can only bring 4 + Abelard
Will do Jimmy romance properly one day, he's gonna leave anyway after Act 3

>>530868369
Why are you a slut, why is Jimmy leaving

>>530868369
Don't bring Abelard

>>530868685
I want the ending of him running around my ship murdering crew members and not the one with him poisoning his whole family

Oh I think I understand why Jimmy will be leaving

>>530868948
That depends on if you said he should get used to how you do things or if you should defer to him
the former leads to that particular ending
latter is best

>>530868948
>not the one with him poisoning his whole family
This is based though

>>530868369
Jimmy has a good scene if you don't take him too, so don't worry. If you're a chaos faggot, then it's even better probably. Don't wanna have intimate boding moments or anything
>>530868562
>Why are you a slut,
she's a woman
>why is Jimmy leaving
He doesn't stick around with chaosfaggots

>>530869280
skill issue

I could've sworn they said lex imperialis would be fully voiced.

>>530869704
No, they said DH is their first fully voiced project

>>530869532
>purple instead of blue
As much as people like to meme on about it Jimmy would fall to tzeench, not slaanesh. What does he even do that is slaanesh-coded? Holds hands excessively? Get out of here

Osiris Reborn waiting room?

>>530870078
his job is being an interrogator. he likes torture

>>530870078
Does he leave the inquisition for power, money, knowledge? Some grand scheme? Nah. He does it for pussy. So sit down kid.

>>530867427
nta but what is outright broken about it?

>>530870669
He specifically tells you that he does not like torture though

>Dreams try to cuck you
Seriously, who on the staff has a cuck fetish?

>>530870869
Always act first no matter what. Ability to have no check or peril massive bonuses, guaranteed rerolls or crippling debuffs, all AOE doesn't hurt either.

>>530870283
Not a CRPG.
I am looking forward to it though.

>>530870785
Brainlet take. He leaves the Inquisition to study the female condition. Uralon confirms that Tzeench got his claws in his soul already
>But yrliet said...
Yrliet is a fucking brainlet that couldn't even sense slaaneshi orgies happening 5 meters from her, her opinion on the matter is irrelevant. At most she sensed corruption in Jimmy's soul and just automatically assumed it's slaanesh because arr rook same

Finally finished RT and it was even better than I expected. I expected it to decline in the second half of the game but it was pretty solid until the very end
And I liked Lex a lot more than Void Shadows, Kibellah is definitely a good character but everything else about DLC is pretty meh, you just kill mutants and that's it, the whole tithe thing was much more interesting

>>530870869
It's honestly better on Cassia than RT because it needs little investment to crank out huge buffs and cheat turn order. So she can focus mostly on her navigator powers and feats instead. GS on RT is going to feel pretty boring unless your RT is also a psyker.

>>530871475
Has anyone ever chosen the other option? The one that insults your pridefulness?

>>530871338
>study the female condition
Is that how incels refer to sex in current year lmao?

>>530871602
I like her being a master tactician because Pasqal makes more sense as s GS

>jae's sudden stealth mission
Why is Owlcat like this

>>530871760
No, it's how we call the female mind, if such a thing does indeed exist

>>530870886

Cassia spent her entire life reading books about war strategies(probably)

>>530871928
No he doesn't. He is cold but satisfied with yrliet and sounds curious about what information he can get out of her (lmao). As for minaret, it's about revenge not satisfying some perverted desire for torture

Game's great. It has flown under most people's radars because the series was already niche and it was the last breath of a dying studio. Probably for the best too since the usual suspects would have a field day with it

Unfortunately it will never happen

>>530873647
It works onscreen
People don't react the way Nocticula reacted to Ember if they're truly evil
Couple that with the fact that she can see the Herald
She was already trending towards neutral. Ember tipped her over the edge.

>>530866796
So this portrait is canon then?

>>530874302
Canon is whatever you want it to be

Does anyone have any recommended builds or shitty classes/skills to avoid? There is surprisingly little information on this game online.

>>530874498
Avoid offensive magic, everything else can work. Thief magic you unlock as you play is busted strong.

>>530876786
I like Jae on Unfair for the sole reason that she's a great skill monkey

Damn does no one like iconoclast?

>>530877672
Consider that 60% of players made it through WotR's first dungeon

>>530877672
People really underestimate the ratio between how many people own a game and how many of them actually play it.

>>530877672
Most people probably never spoke to her because she's hiding behind some boxes
Also at that stage you're short on PF so you're tempted to take the inheritance yourself

>>530878197
it's funny because you get the exact amount of PF if you give it to her

>>530877929
>>530878157
I think the first void ship battle is at 50% achieved, so half the people who bought it got to Footfall

>>530877672
If you arrive at Footfall incognito and go through the Fidelio quest, there's no option to uncover the servitor as the real Fidelio. Once you get back to the party after the crematorium, its just a fight and then PF

>>530878197
I wasn't short but I'm never going to pass on cash. It would be downright anti semitic.

>>530878351
Half of the people who played it*
There a plenty of people who bought it and never even bothered to play.
Steam sales kill brain cells.

>>530877672
That ending of that quest is hidden behind talking to the girl and finding all the secrets. Most gamers go in blasting.

Also consider that most players who own the game haven't even gotten to that quest. Only half of players have even gotten to Footfall at all. I'm not exaggerating.

>>530878392
You absolutely can uncover the servitor if you are incognito. I've done it myself 3 times.

>>530878392
Wrong. If you're incognito, you get a choice after the fight to spare or kill the other guests and then you decide on the inheritance. You can pick the girl then

>>530878392
It only depends on if you say that YOU'RE Fidelio.
If you do, there is a forced fight, and you never find out for sure who Fidelio is, but you still have a chance to give the inheritance to the kid.
On the other hand, this is the only way you visit the crematorium and the Lever of Doom

>>530879553
Yeah, THAT'S mad, not >>530879208

I do it in sims why wouldn't I do it here lol

>>530878197
Why would I give the money to her? She's not Fidelio. And coincidentally, my name is Fidelio

>>530880008
Well played

Sucks that nothing happened until the end of the game when it comes to the psychic rock you find in dlc 2

>>530859140
Remind me, what was the gimmick on that fight supposed to be? I just deleted his ass in one turn with the usual cheese.

>>530880069
An area attack that does 100 damage

>>530864574
Shoulda played at release. Back then it was actually a fight you had to win.

>>530880008
You should reveal your true identity
>Fidelio? Never heard of him. I am Fidelio von Valancius

>>530874302
Obviously, it's the one that looks most based.

>>530875124
Slyth's drukharis aren't very menacing. They seem more like frazzled personal assistants than inhumanly graceful killers

>>530878884
>>530878825
You can only uncover the servitor if you do NOT announce yourself as Fidelio while incognito is an important thing to note here.
Basically the funniest route can't actually uncover the whole truth.

>>530880924
Yeah because to get the full info you need to be able to talk to Chaplain about whom Fidelio might be, and you can make use of the clue about "Cobra class ship"

I like being nice to the npc pixels in rpg's so I will play iconoclast.

I also spent a lot of time thinking about what I want to play besides noble officer but it's just what makes the most sense and what I enjoy. I like buffing my squad. I like the idea of INT max operative skillmonkey but then I remember that Persuasion and Commerce are still FEL even if you're trying to be a skillmonkey with INT, and the "Be Smart" talent doesn't actually flip those to INT. I know most checks allow Jae/Cassia to speak for you, but there are a lot of solo checks in the game that test on Persuasion and I want to do able to do those. So here I am, signing up for noble officer for the third time. Autism, to say the least, but at least I have a real reason.

Despite playing the game twice, I still have not gotten the achievement for romancing someone. I went with Kibellah twice, and both times she led the cult and said we love each other but can't be together since we're too busy. So this time I'm going with someone else. Probably Jimmy since I like him, but I'm also tempted to go with Yrliet for the memes. We'll see where life takes us.

Super excited to play again. I told myself I would take a break since I played a lot over the past couple weeks and I have a ton of unfinished games in my backlog, but I just feel like playing this game anyway. The heart wants what it wants.

>>530866796
Since you brought it up, am I imagining things or did they change how the pacification missions work? I distinctly seem to remember them being places on the overworld you walk to and interacted with, but now (at least the actual combat ones) are all done from the camp instead with a wait time associated. Was this changed in a patch or am I going senile?

>>530881450
>playing the game twice
>I like being nice to the npc pixels in rpg's so I will play iconoclast
What does that mean for the first two playthroughs, unless you just went iconoclast both times and are doing it yet again?

>Take the man in a box from the feudal world to my ship
>Gets hooked up to the power grid and the simpleton inside dies

Hilarious.

>>530881923
When the game first came out I played Icono, and then recently I played again after the new dlc came out and I did Dogma.

My favorite ending is the non-nomos dogma one, where the Expanse becomes a new territory of the imperium and you fight chaos and Argenta says you're super cool. The first ending I got was still pretty good since everyone is happy and they mostly defeat the problems, but the imperium attacks you which is not what I want. So I'm torn.

you vill spare ze genestealers

>>530882489
Back into the incinerator, Monteg.

>>530882335
>and they mostly defeat the problems
lol

>>530882489
Back into my bed, Monteg

>>530883050
Quiet, Jae.

>>530882489
Do I get a hot magus waifu?

>>530882335
If you go along with Calcazar's plan, I think the Imperium holds off from bombing you, even as an Iconoclast. From memory anyway
I think also if you have top reputation with the Navy, then the entire task force defects to you and the attack fizzles

>>530883262
Quiet, Cassia.

>>530883279
You get an autistic stocky pale bald man with four dicks and an ovipositor where his anus should be.

>>530883312
Siding with him results in you becoming Warden of the Expanse while retaining martial law, since he fucks off to put his plan into motion but doesn't trust any of the retards in the Expanse to not immediately shit the bed unless they're ruled with an iron fist.

>>530883050
The steam train segment with Monteg was very gay

Ok, considering that Solomorne is basicly 40k Ekundayo - down to lawtism and Dog.
Which pathfinder companion are they going to port into Dark heresy?
My guess would be Nenio

>>530883637
Ekundayo has more of a personality that Solo could ever hope to have.

>>530883050
The goggles stay on, Lord Captain, alright?

>>530883637
they'll bring not-woljif in as a pariah

What a bitchass comment to make
Blowing up the planet after the fact wouldn't have retroactively unscarred the people on my own crew fucking prick

>>530883584
Silence, Yrliet, we're what you call soul melding

>>530883772
i think the reasoning is that blowing up a planet is fucking cool, but seeing it turn into a daemon world is distressing

>>530883741
>Ekundayo has more of a personality that Solo could ever hope to have.
i miss that guy

>>530883772
I'll just be here drinking from my cup while you cope and seethe

>Yrliet knows enough about pulling levers to detect a double meaning
WHORE

>>530883967
Me too buddy. Me too. If Wrath hadn't spoiled me with its powerlevels I'd probably replay Kingmaker again at some point. So many great characters and side characters.
Except those Shelynites, they can all die in a fucking fire and I still won't forgive Owlcat for counting that mission as failed if you kill those lawbreaking niggers.
Them and the quest that shall not be named. Fuck those guys.

>>530883772
The thing that bothered me most about the dogmatic solution is that fusion reactors simply do not work that way
Bombing the reactor will just make it fizzle out, not set off a chain reaction that would explode the atmosphere.

>>530883772
you dumb
it's like seeing a goatsee for the first time, it leaves a mark on everyone but some are too far gone

Reminder that Yrliet is cuck

I firmly disagree with the loyalist Imperials ever referring to the "Chaos Gods" by that name. They would NEVER refer to anything that dwells in the warp as a "god" of any sort.
Ruinous Powers will do fine.

>>530883945
But its ptsd they have from actually being physically down there and experiencing it in person
Thats like saying nuking germany would have cured every mentally ill vet

>>530884098
Abelard confirmed there was no cult activity on my ship you smug fuck so you were wrong

>>530884458
The people in the know refer to them as chaos gods tho. Don't need to worship a thing to acknowledge it basically has godlike powers.

Bitches

>>530884445
Nicely done background, looks just like Cumrag

Ah screw it, I need to stop trying to optimize and just have fun. I already broke the game and one-shot every boss as an officer, so I need to try something that's more of a challenge anyway.

Grimdark Unfair as a voidborn INT operative priest. Going to get a servo skull and analyze every enemy.

>>530884494
>its ptsd they have from actually being physically down there and experiencing it in person
Nah it's from when the whole planet went fully over into a daemon world, tentacles coming out of the ground etc
That took place when you were in orbit, and only if you held off on bombing it
Heinrix is like
>it's not a daemon world yet but it will be in a minute
then you're like
>men, this interrogator has lost his composure.

>>530884445
>Yrliet watches it
>Abelard hears it
>The whole jae thing
Who on owlkek crew has a voyeur fetish?

>>530884494
>actually being physically down there and experiencing it in person
Not really. Look at it as fallout from a distant nuke going off. Hell, fags entire systems away would probably feel it in some shape or form.

>>530884680
It's fun, currently doing just that with a Heavy Flamer. If you are playing with an aoe weapon then Strategic Adaptation is kinda wonky and will only trigger if you hit the servo skulls. Been getting fucked by those little bastards dodging my attack.

>>530884494
>so you were wrong
Wrong about what? That there's now a daemon world in the expanse that will be constantly spewing out daemons into realspace? That you have made the world a thousand times worse place than it already was? That several of your crewmembers have gone insane after witnessing the birth of a daemon world? No, I think he was right on his money about it. And it is all your fault because you're a pussy ass bitch

>>530883772
what did you even do, I've never had heinrix shittalk me before hahahaha

>>530884445
She doesn't mind because she assumes it's just animalistic rutting
But she'll have a fit if you play regicide with Heinrix

>>530884776
Hmm I guess thats fair enough then maybe
Still sounds like a stretch
Either way all I did was bring back the reactor and tech priests and from what I understand the tech priests are fine and there is no lingering cult activity so heinrix can still get fucked

>>530885319
There's a couple moments where he gets truly angry at the RT. Like if you prevent him from torturing the hiding mechanicus guy on Kiava Gamma then execute him for being weak.

>>530885319
It's if you choose to save people at the end of Chapter 1 instead of nuking the planet

>>530885319
I brought two elves with me when I woke him from his cumrag pod and he was madder at the craftworld scum

>save people

>>530885391
It is honestly pretty contrived. Let's grab the reactor or the survivors, then we can blow up the planet
But it's a forced dilemma
>NO YOU HAVE TO DO IT RIGHT NOW CMON NOW NOW NOW
It wasn't earned narratively speaking
More interesting would be that you can rescue one out of three, the commoners, the nobles, or the reactor, then you can nuke it
But if you push your luck and try to get another one, it's too late and it turns into a daemon world and it's too late for nukes.
That way you have more interesting scenario for Jimmy. He's mad at you for not nuking immediately, even though you got away with it sort of.

>>530885319
He shittalks you quite a lot of you're doing extremely retarded shit or trying to assert your authority over him. Well, not really shittalks, but switches to his "get fucked, rogue trader, you're not the boss of me" tone

>>530885831
>It wasn't earned narratively speaking
>>It wasn't earned
The sun went away, aurora ressurected and started shit talking you and there were fecal daemons spontaneously coming out of every asshole for miles around. Motherfucker do you require a cup of coffee and a blowjob before you're consider it "earned"?

>>530886185
Anon just wants to have his cake and eat it too

>>530886185
People don't get that the surface is the last part to get corrupted, by the time you leave the planet the lower levels are a daemon infested hellhole while random cultists are all exploding into chaos spawn on the surface.

>>530886185
Sounds like that was going to scar the weakminded people of the crew regardless of whether or not the planet was nuked

>>530886185
No, it wasn't earned, because you were just presented with a list of choices, and had to pick only one.
There was no sense of pushing your luck against a rapidly encroaching tsunami of terror, and having to make a tough choice. It was either bail out of the situation immediately or don't.
>fecal daemons spontaneously coming out of every asshole for miles around
This wasn't put across properly when it came to the final choice.
>Ok grab the survivors
>Whoops while we were grabbing the survivors the reactor got infested with chaos
>now it has tentacles a little bit
>*get it anyway*
>oh no now it's too late the planet is doomed, you should have listened lord captain
would have sold it better

>>530886421
>by the time you leave the planet the lower levels are a daemon infested hellhole
Source: your ass

>>530886919
All of this just sounds like you're mad you didn't take the obviously correct choice and now you're coming up with reasons why that totally isn't on you but somehow the game's fault.

>>530887116
The only daemons you fight in the first chapter are below the surface, the first being summoned in a warehouse and the second possessing a vagrant underground.

>Anon can't deal with the consequences of his obviously bad decisionmaking 2 years after the game was released
And you're wondering why iconoturd choices never come to bite you in the ass aside from 1 or 2 cases, and even then they have no gameplay consequences. If they did there would be so much whining, seething and crying across the game forums that the internet would come crushing down

>>530886919
>This wasn't put across properly when it came to the final choice.
>had front row seat to see it happen
...you're just pretending to be retarded and baiting for attention aren't you?

>>530887140
Wrong
Every choice I make is correct because it is my story
Cope and seethe

I wanna smooch her.

>>530887383
I fought daemons all over the landing pad as well. You can thank Idira for that.

>wtf the game gave the option to nuke the satan world and when I said no it came back to bite me in the ass.

>>530887905
It's not a satan world though
The sun has temporarily gone missing but we can get it back if everyone just calms down for a minute

>>530887776
>he thinks he's the main character

>>530887776
The main character is Jimmy.

Why didn't idira just get sanctioned?

>>530888104
Kibera-sama... Onegai...
>>530888191
This but unironically

>>530888245
Theodora didn't encourage or allow it, and before Theodora she was just a street kid

>>530887905
it doesnt come back to bite you in the ass though some irrelevent people an hero and jimmy goes ooooooo see how spooky i told you so!! and then you move on and it never comes back up

>>530888245
idira is an idiot

I can't wait to larp as jimmy when dark heresy comes out.

>>530888245
afaik Idira was mostly normal as far as unsanctioneds go until Theodora and Calcazar fucked with her brain to wipe the memories of Epitaph.

>>530866796
I played it, became a cat and figured that was the funniest ending I could have asked for and decided to drop it so my experience wouldn't get sullied.

>>530888519
Same I even got the portrait for it

>>530888472
Dogmaturds hate being reminded of this
You can save the civilians and the reactor, and all Jimmy can do is seethe
>but there's now a demon planet in your territory holy shit
That's a problem for another day

>>530888703
>Rome ended because a legatus had a bad trip

>>530888245
She is rather old for sanctioning and very, very far away from Terra.

>>530888245
Would you enjoy being lobotomized?

>>530888938
lt was not something I expected to happen at all. Hilarious as fuck.

>>530889150
Jimmy doesn't seem lobotomized

>>530889150
It's not that bad, Jimmy did it and he's fine. Idira has very high willpower, she'd make a good sanctioned psyker for the inquisition

>>530889150
That's servitorization, not sanctioning

>>530889241
He was a cool cat before his sanctioning, now he's just a fuddy-duddy

>>530889279
>Idira is not part of Calcazar's retinue if you give her to Jimmy
So stupid, so may wasted opportunitites in this game. I fucking hate it

>>530889536
Oh shit that would have been cool
Easy to implement too

Is calcazar good or evil?

>>530889356
>Some designs have this circuitry bore deep into the psyker's brain via a skull cap, giving some a degree of respite from unwanted Warp influence[1b] or helping to regulate the power of the psyker's mind.[1n]

>Those psykers who fear loss of control might clamp Psychic dampeners and mood restrictors to ease the burden of overstressed minds that might begin to wander.[1g] These type of neural inhibitors are sometimes implanted directly into their cranium via surgery. However, while they do limit the risk of possession, they also blunt the psyker's innate power as well.[2]

You guys are mistaken, or perhaps lying. There is a mechanical downside to the demon planet.

>>530889762
His alignment in dnd terms is technically true retarded

>>530889793
It's just one guy coping he made the wrong decision

>>530889778
That's not what sanctioning means and Idira already wears one like that, cables-into-brain and all.

>>530889762
Stupid evil as is inquisition standard

>>530890062
Yeah but there are additional... complications that can go with the process.

>>530890470
Isn’t the problem with sanctioning the whole torture part

>>530890650
I don't think most people here would consider hourly penis inspections by jimmy as torture

>>530889762
He murdered a bunch of loyal citizens and even some astartes as part of his plan so his actions fall under evil if we're going by the classical good and evil.
He justifies it by saying they are a cost towards the long term goal of saving more lives later, but how many times have we heard that same rhetoric from people who ended up being crazy.

His plan is also pretty haphazard, which makes the fact that he murdered a bunch of good people in the process even more questionable. He has no way of knowing whether Tervantias sabotaged the yoke, he has no way of knowing whether his tech priests will be able to repair the yoke in the event of a malfunction, and he has no way of knowing whether the c'tan will adapt in some way or another one will be attracted to the event or any number of unknowns. The more big risks you have in your plan, the less you're justified in all these costs for the sake of it.

So ultimately, weighing a lot of factors, a classical morality preservative would label him a bad guy. A pragmatist or utilitarian would say he's questionable. A puritan inquisitor from among his peers would condemn him. It's not looking good.

>>530890650
Life in 40k is torture already

>>530890824
It's also not even clear what he wants the C'Tan for

>>530890837
At least you usually don’t have to be mkultra’d on top of that

>>530890650
I imagine watching big E's home movies while having your skull cracked, nails and teeth pulled and nipples twisted isn't that enjoyable.

There are two conseqences to that (aside from the endings slide) but they are so laughably minor that I'm asking myself why include them at all. Narratively though it's catastrophic and anyone less than a rogue trader would have been merc'd for allowing it to happen

That the prologue fight? where'd you get the sniper?

>>530894623
Abelard gives you one if you're an operative

should i get neverwinter nights 1 and 2 and all the dlc or rouge trader?

Yes

>>530896593
im broke its one or the other:(

>>530896494
Buy neverwinter 1, for 2 I would wait and see how the remaster turns out.

>>530896706
I'd probably go for neverwinters plus DLC, that's a good solid chunk of stuff
RT will always be there and the DLC will be on sale eventually

>>530897039
>>530897253
2 is on pre purchase sale, ill get it and if the launch reviews arnt good ill use the steam refund but ill go get 1 right now thanks its only 7 bucks on g2a

what the fuck were they thinking

>>530898506
They were thinking "Surely the game is easy enough even for shitters"
None of the fights in the DLC are hard. If you're having trouble just lower the difficulty

Well that didn't go well

Even Iconoclast, because the Emperor protects small children and fools

Mostly uses the webway, hence there being a webway gate on Janus

also i'm left wondering, can you have more than one of the secret companions with you? having incendia and winterscale don't seem mutually exclusive. the chaos marine might be though the events that lead you to him seem to be pretty separated from incendia's and winterscale isn't gonna give a fuck

Iconoclast can recruit the brain muncher in act 5 if they exile her, but winterscale gets crippled during his quest

>>530907721
Yeah she mainly walked. There are tons of webway gates on a craftworld, and plenty of planets have one hidden away. That's mainly how the space elves get around.
As for hitchhiking, she'd hitch a ride with a passing eldar corsair for as long as he would tolerate her autism.
Eldar do use short range ships, just barely dipping into the warp. That's how those Eldar ships pop up occasionally for a space battle.

No thanks, bro, I'm good

Give me cool 40k lore/theories

>>530907886
>she'd hitch a ride with a passing eldar corsair
I bet she took miles of dick.
Alright, so did she arrive on janus after the other autismos settled there?

>>530908095
40k is a snowglobe in a fantasy wizard's tower

>>530908062
The Emperor is also a chaos god

>>530908215
It's ok when he does it

>>530908148
Yeah apparently. You can ask her directly and she says she didn't arrive with them, but came later.
>I bet she took miles of dick.
She certainly knows how to handle a dick, see >>530883584

>>530908095
This emperor guy might not actually be god

>>530907780
A dumb article I read earlier in the day by a journalist who was glazing bg3. He was talking about dark heresy and how it needs to live up to the expectation larian left behind. That quote he said of bg3 was kinda living rent free in my head

>>530908095
40k is just what if the dark ages were very le bad and in space

>>530907721
If an eldar wore a cloak and had a hood and kept to themselves, they could travel on human vessels. They do it all the time. When she was on Janus, she just posed as a mutant, and didn't correct people who assumed she was just an unfortunate human.
Some portion of her travels were also probably done by webway, though that would be somewhat limited since you have to find them. Some of her travel would also be done through eldar ship captains, but that would also be somewhat limited since many of them in the area are dead, and she would not want to draw attention from the local humans.

>>530908148
Yeah she came after.

>>530908062
>entire empire turned into a shithole where the chaos gods get a giant buffet

>>530908095
Golden men = normal humans like us
Stone men = modified humans designed for space colonization, from slight augmentation all the way to full cybernetic integration
Iron men = robots (obvious)
Almost everyone in 40k is the descendant of the Men of Stone, explaining their narrow minded way of thinking

>>530908576
>He was talking about dark heresy and how it needs to live up to the expectation larian left behind.
I hope that """"""""""""""""""""""""journalist"""""""""""""""""""""" kills himself asap

>>530908576

Everyone has heard this one already but Event Horizon takes place in the 40k setting

>>530908672
>doesn't have an argument so starts addressing things I never said
Chaos certainly have not lost. It also have not won, and if it's so feeble that it can't even handle 1 guy then their power is certainly not ultimate and kinda weaksauce. Maybe they should try a bit harder

>>530908576
I dont get why so many retards liked that garbage it was just another generic rpg that was completely linear, the only thing it had was le reactivity where you would get a slightly different line of dialogue that leads to the exact same thing.

>>530909019
Just the name really

screenshot this post. we WILL end up killing an avatar of kaine in either rogue trader DLC or dark heresy

Local 4channel poster pretends to be shocked by entry level game with high production values appealing more to people who haven't touched the genre before

>>530908095
The Emperor is just an average guy from the Age of Technology. Everyone was like him in those days. He's the last of the Men of Gold.

>>530908640
>If an eldar wore a cloak and had a hood and kept to themselves, they could travel on human vessels. They do it all the time. When she was on Janus, she just posed as a mutant, and didn't correct people who assumed she was just an unfortunate human.
Yeah, I don't buy this shit. You can't even travel like that in real life. How the fuck do you expect it to happen in a state that is a bureaucratic hell?
You can bet your ass there's all kinds of papers required to board an interplanetary vessel, and you just know that the second anyone asked her for her papers she would sperg out and blow her cover

>>530909146
based we need to enact total eldar death next

>>530909019
it's the modern day version of dragon age origins.

>>530908847
I fully expect them to move away from crpg genre should they survive the shitspanse fiasco, or go down should they not. Either way Dark Heresy is most likely gonna be their last crpg

>>530909198
The Imperium really isn't that organized. On major planets, heavily settled, the paperwork would need to be in order.
But on the fringes, there just isn't that level of control, as shown by all the piracy and looseness of Footfall.
The realities of warp travel mean that each star system is pretty much doing its own thing.
The only thing keeping the imperium together is faith in the Emperor. It's deliberately reminiscent of medieval germany

>>530909198
If you're going to terra or mars, sure. But the Koronus expanse has tons of pirates and a powerful mafia, not to mention a ton of average joe traders who travel around between footfall and janus and all the important planets. It would be very easy to just put some money on the table and end up wherever you want to go. Especially if it's just you and no cargo.

>>530909019
I honestly think that DOS2 was better in every way except companion interactions
>>530909146
Tht's not much of an achievement though is it? Everybody and their mom can kill an avatar of cain

>>530909198
>You can bet your ass there's all kinds of papers required to board an interplanetary vessel,
Yrliet wouldn't go to places like that
Only remote, barely inhabited planets
She likes to sit in nature and contemplate existence and feel sorry for herself and be mad at her parents

>>530909265
at least dao had different choices bg3 is completely linear other than what flavor of ending you choose

Riiight...

>>530909198

In the future, after everything falls apart, people will look back on us in wonder, as the ancients who could do anything but somehow lost it all.

>>530909461
>Tht's not much of an achievement though is it?
it used to be but they made avatars job to fucking everyone-like you said- to the point that they are laughingstock. which is why I think owlkek might just throw one into rt or dark heresy because its practically a tradition now to just stomp on avatars of kaines

>>530909608
Just let her hair down, put on an aquila necklace and put some fake tubes in her hair
She could easily pass

>>530909608
Nobody said anything about a monkey job. She can steal whatever she wants or trade for stuff she finds. This is like the third question you've asked that shows you completely lack any sort of imagination. There is absolutely nothing standing in someone's way to get to where they want to go in a sector of space that is full of traders and pirates and all kinds of people willing to trade simple money or favors or barter for a spot on a ship that going somewhere already anyway. This doesn't require explanation for most normal people.

>>530909608
>>Yrliet holding a monke job just to pay for transfer
That would actually explain why she's disgusted by an idea of touching you. All the handhobs and blowjobs she gave to hobos in side alleys to pay for tickets. I probably wouldn't want to touch a monke too after that

>>530909608
>Yrliet holding a monke job just to pay for transfer
She acquired currency in other ways that she doesn't want to discuss with Elantach

Yrliet is forklift certified.
She can easily find paying work in the docks of any space station

>>530909836
She's too autistic to udnerstand the concept of stealing lol. If she doesn't even understand the concet of private rooms. She wouldn't "steal" she'd just take whatever in plain sight then act surprised that you can't do that. A sperg out will shortly follow. The more i think about it the more I'm convinced that they simply didn't think about it at all. I could buy a savvy non-autistic eldar getting buy. That retard though? Nah

>>530887826

>>530909991
She worked in Burger Emperor for 2 months

>>530910104
Better intro for Yrli:
>My compliments to your rifleman on the rooftop
>Vistenza Vyatt: I didn't have any rifleman there
And it turns out she's incognito doing ranger shit, disguised as a human and able to pass sort of. Jimmy would pick her out immediately of course

>>530909019
>>530908576
you can't deny that BG3, if nothing else, nailed presentation and game design in a way 99% of the rest of isometric RPGs just don't. Most struggle to have a couple of prebaked animations the kind of which the first mass effect was using almost 20 years ago now. Larian was the first one not to only dare to try ACTUALLY emoting and animating shit for once, but at the same time doing so while adding full voice acting.
you wouldn't believe the amount of people that are filtered by the lack of voice acting in a game. at least 80% of the people i see talking about disco elysium nowadays mention that they wouldn't have tried it if not for the voice acting. Add to that actual visual presentation that doesn't feel like something from two decades ago at best and it's no wonder people attached themselves to it.

personally I just really fucking like that it's one of the few that lets you say "fuck it" and just engage in fights with everyone at any point. being able to actually use the game's mechanics OUTSIDE of combat is unbelievable cool. i get why basically no other rpg does it but man i wish they did.

>>530910104
>she doesn't even understand the concet of private rooms
Yeah she does lol
She just wanted to snoop around in your room because she's obsessed with you

>>530909991
In my game she drove Savage the Gay Steam Train because everyone else had no tech skill and my guy was too sick from being in the lower decks

>>530910230
>personally I just really fucking like that it's one of the few that lets you say "fuck it" and just engage in fights with everyone at any point. being able to actually use the game's mechanics OUTSIDE of combat is unbelievable cool.
bg3 wasn't even the first larian game to do it

>>530910516
i didn't say it was the first or even the best one
i just really like when games actually let me use their mechanics whenever i like. i like the devs trusting me enough to just blow some faggot's kneecaps off the moment i get slightly annoyed at him

>>530910474
>is ok pulling monteg's lever, but not yours

How do people justify keeping Jae around? She is pure political and reputational poison for anybody that isnt a chaosfag?

Dogmatists really just aren't cut out for being a rogue trader.

>>530910817
This ain't Segmentum Solar, soft boy

>>530910817
I'm a rogue trader. Doesn't matter how shit my reputation is, the nobles from all over the sector will be sending their virginal sons to try and seduce me anyway

>>530910817
in my dogmatard run i just figured my rouge trader took a liking to her bullshit stories after having an entire gallery of serious law abbiding emperor fearing soldiers for her squad
ended up going abelard - solamon - jimbo - pascal - jae most of my run

>>530910817
she gives me an extra turn and extra damage

I regret trying to build double bolter pistol jae.

>the armor that gives you shield ac based on your armor if you're two handing a weapon works with mounted shield now
There really is absolutely no reason to ever use a shield in wrath now

>>530912750
youre not supposed to use her to deal damage, giving everyone an extra turn through overseer is very busted

>>530912819
theres no reason to use a shield or armor at all in pathfinder in general

What exactly does my character get to keep for the bg2 transmigration? I'll probably lose all my items, but will I get to keep learned spells? What about my level? How does transferring a character work?

>>530913123
Some of the newer armor focus feats are alright. In this case I'm just using it to give my pyjama tanking horse more ac though.

>>530913421
I know you keep the Pantaloons

>>530913421
It's just that edwin has a cool spell that summons spiders and I'm not sure if I should give it to my protag or edwin. It would be more usefull in edwins hands right now, but I'd like to keep a cool spell like that around on my own character perosnally
>>530913497
These pants? Lol okay. What about my level and memorized spells?

>>530913421
What to do:
>use all stat tomes on yourself

What not to do:
>use stat tomes on companions
>use find familiar spell

What to consider:
>learn every spell you can

The reason you might not want to learn all spells is because in BG2 you get significantly more xp for learning spells. So you could get an enormous xp boost just by having Imoen chug a bunch of thievery potions and steal every spell scroll in the shop. Then use genius potions to boost to 25 int and learn every spell in the game for hundreds of thousands of xp.

>>530913618
>What about my level and memorized spells?
I think that all copies....it's been ages though

>>530913713

I've played bg2 so many times and still never knew this

Player influencing companions is old and played out.
They should influence you.

Imoen owes me sex

>>530914371
Solasta had the right idea, your party should have general personalities that get influenced by the story.

>>530914371
Yrliet influenced some people to have permanent meltdowns about her

>>530914626
Yes that is good
Too often it's just click buttons, receive personality
There should be an extra layer where they're responding to things that you have caused to happen

>>530914703
People say there's no reactivity in RT but they're wrong, the reactivity is inside the player and it's all about Yrliet

>>530912042
The High Lords said precisely this and he had them all killed

>>530909324
They fucked up completely by wasting their Mass Effect clone on some premade, limited, small scale and boring setting from forgotten TV show instead of making their own Space Opera. Expanse will flop and they will be forced to make more 40k crpgs to make up for it. They will just turn into Warhammer games studio like CA and Fatshark because of this mistake.

>>530913713
>>use all stat tomes on yourself
gotcha, I believe there's on in candlekeep I didn't get.
>use find familiar spell
What's wrong with find familiar?
>The reason you might not want to learn all spells is because in BG2 you get significantly more xp for learning spells. So you could get an enormous xp boost just by having Imoen chug a bunch of thievery potions and steal every spell scroll in the shop.
I might do as you say, since it's only really spell that would be more useful in edwins hands during the final sarevok battle.
>>530913796
That's great.

>>530915173
Expense could work for an investigator type game, not unlike Dark Heresy. Exploring the underworlds of Earth, Mars, and the Belt.
Not a space opera high adventure game
The irl solar system just isn't that interesting

>>530915181
Find Familiar is a nuisance because if your pet dies you get a permanent debuff (as I recall)

>>530915157
Can't Rouge Trooper also just kill anyone who will show disdain for his companions?
I'm pretty sure you can remove ship crew's vocal cords just because Cassia suggested it.

>>530915173
The Alien setting might have been good
Weyland-Yutani, Seegson, the general vibe of a very hostile universe

>>530915440
A rogue trader certainly could. Imagine telling Caligos Winterscale he can't do something

>>530915173
>Expanse will flop and they will be forced to make more 40k crpgs to make up for it.
Let's hope so! There are other settings I want them to make a crpg in though. Shitspanse is not one of them however

>>530915181
>What's wrong with find familiar?
The main reason to use find familiar is for the extra hp it gives you.
You get more hp the later into the games you use it.
I think it's like 6 for B1, 12 for BG2, and 18 for TOB. I use 6 as the base here but it might be like 8 or something.
Also there are transferable items you can check on the wiki. A lot of them are from Siege of Dragonspear though but it sounds like you're skipping that.
>>530915428
That's not an issue because you can just talk to the familiar and tell it to get back in the pokeball (inventory) where it's immortal.

>>530915748
Expanse is strangely dry
Even Total Recall made near-future Mars more interesting

>>530915596
Let's hope he takes it as a challenge
>Hey Winterscale you absolutely can not rape me

>>530915428
Holy shit. I didn't know that was permanent. Mine died several times, welp.

>>530915846
>Ha! I like the cut of your jib!

>>530866796
I am still salty about the catgirl.

>>530915810
I mean it's a setting built around the idea that humanity got stuck after getting into space and stagnated. It's supposed to be a dry shithole that gets shaken up by the alien stuff.

>>530858252

>>530916640
>It's shit on purpose

>>530916919
Who are you quoting?

>>530915181
That's a big Elf

>>530917271
For you

>>530873223
Is this the Harlequins' ultimate plot?

>>530885314
I figured it would be worth the reward.
But then there was no reward.
Seriously, I thought I could hook the sacred fusion reactor to my ship, or place it on a world, or return it to the Cult Mechanicus. And that the nobles would pay me back in profit factor.

Alushinyrra is better than act 3

>>530918362
Sounds like a bug because saving the fusion reactor should in fact reward you some profit factor. But that scene's entire dialogue tree is a fucking mess, so who knows

>>530915173
>owlcat turns into a 40k studio
nightmare fuel

>>530918496
No one will argue

Big retard here, first time playing Rogue Trader and being indecisive about making the MC for Rogue Trader. Is having a buffslut MC or DPS MC better? Cassia and Jae are buffers, right? Psyker seems really fun and versatile, can I run a basic bitch "DPS caster" Psyker? I'm looting at Militarum Soldier, Noble Officer, or Psyker Soldier right now.

>>530909406
>But on the fringes, there just isn't that level of control, as shown by all the piracy and looseness of Footfall.
There are rusted crates on the Footfall docks that have been stuck in customs for years. There are people waiting in line. You and your retinue can walk through because you've got a docket signed by the Emperor himself, but I don't think a mutant with no papers would have it so easy.

Frankly, the impression I've gotten is that one of the main functions of a Rogue Trader is that they're exempt from Imperial bureaucracy. A Rogue Trader can just order goods shipped, on his own authority, and his signature can get them through any customs check.

The pirates and smugglers also find ways to be exempt from Imperial bureaucracy, so I guess it's not impossible for Yrliet to get around, though I'm not sure where she'd get the money for the bribes. Regular mercenary work?

I never liked rping evil characters, but it's oddly satisfying being a tyrannical dickhead in this one

>>530909842
>Yrliet got pressed into prostitution by human traffickers
>probably many times
I imagine the first time it happened, she dismissed the stranger touching her hand as some kind of mon-keigh greeting ritual, but now she knows what comes next.

>>530919675
>I'm not sure where she'd get the money for the bribes
You don't want to know, elantach
Realistically though, by tagging along with one of the factions you can bypass all the red tape. Kasballica, the pirate gangs, even the regular merchant navy. That's how she could move around, by attaching herself to an ongoing concern

>>530920150
Yeah she's centuries old. She's lived entire lifetimes as a space prostitute, passed around from ship to ship

>>530920323
>Realistically though, by tagging along with one of the factions you can bypass all the red tape. Kasballica, the pirate gangs, even the regular merchant navy.

kek

>>530920810
I hate it too, but I still admit that it's well done and infinitely better than act 3 of rt

>>530919670
Pick anything but Operative.
Cassia is a more unique case of character, but you can limit her to be a common buff officer if you want for whatever reason.
Psyker who blasts is very effective (anything psyker is).
Psyker soldier if you want to throw flames and beams at people, Imperial guard fortress world if you want pure dakka, Noble officer for RP value and making the most dangerouts member of your team essentially 2.5 times more dangerous

>>530919670
>can I run a basic bitch "DPS caster" Psyker?
None of the NPC psykers have Pyromancy, so that's a good pick if you want to avoid redundancy.

>>530879357
What happens n it ? Does she have multiple ending?

The first character im going to create in solasta 2? A ranger with a few levels in fighter.

>>530889279

absolutely soulless and unnecessary

Anon from last night here, think I'm going to need to give up on finishing Rouge Trader I genuinely cannot beat Edge of Daybreak, by the time I have ran around the entire arena killing all the minions that shield him I get about 1 or 2 attacks on him which do barely any damage and most of my squad is dead
I was actually having a shit ton of fun with the game and put 70 hours into it but I am at a brick wall and I have zero desire to continue I was having fun the entire game until this point it truly just fucking sucks

>>530922714
She has an ending depending on what you do with her. In the new ending she becomes a chaos spawn during her wedding. Thank you, owlcat, very cool

>>530924083
What difficulty? Which companions?

>>530924405
Daring
Cassia, Pasqal, Yrliet, Ulfar, Kibellah

>>530913010
I refuse to use abilities that grant extra turns
If I inadvertently gain an extra turn I skip it without doing anything

>>530924662
FH+Kibellah literally solos that entire encounter how the fuck are you building your characters that the chicken is giving you trouble?

>>530925335
I've just been slapping on whatever abilities and stats the game recommends and I've managed to beat both dlc's and everything optional up until this point with no trouble at all this is the only fight I've actually not been able to do

>>530924662
Can't you just lower the difficulty ?

>>530925772
I probably will I'm just bitching for the sake of bitching but just feels pretty unsatisfying having to do it

>>530878157
Steam achievements only count people that have booted up the game

>>530924083
Don't quit, and don't lower the difficulty. Overcoming obstacles is part of playing games. This is why we play games.

Take a minute to read all the talents your characters have, and come up with a strategy. I've done that fight on grimdark unfair so I know you can do it too. Kibellah and Ulfar can carry that fight, you just have to figure out what synergies the rest of the party need to set up for them.

>>530924662

>>530926695
Super early, like Act 1

Anything you'd recommend for the Sarevok showdown?

>>530931791
A monster summoning wand is nice to have. They make great meat shields. The boss is super scary in melee so you might need that breathing room.

Then you admit your ethos is inferior to its opponenys because you have to compromise.

Okay now I'm positive someone on Owlcat's writing team has a genuine cuck fetish

>>530938009
Whoops, wrong image.

>>530937937
Don't bother with the attentionwhore. Xhe's just desperately craving the attention daddy never gave xyr.

I can't see what path sets off schizos and causes several years of constant seething because it's not edgy enough in dark heresy

How can I decrease my reputation without it going too far down? Killing randos people loses me 8 points, which is a little much I think.

>>530937937
>>perverted mankind with knife-ear filth
dogma's can do that too though, it's also a dogma choice to ally with Eldar

>>530937616
Go ahead, name something from Dogmacuck and Herekek that comes even close to TtP. None of their abilities are worth jack shit in comparison, and none of their associated items compete with it either. No, Eyes of Joyeuse having 3 more psy rating than non-Dogma does not compete, since I know you're gonna bring that one up.

>>530937937
>he thinks being Icon is all about taking all the retard options
lol
lmao even
In reality my realm is a literal utopia unrivaled by anything in the Imperium and I got the backing of the Inquisition to boot.
Meanwhile yours looks like Incendia's shithole.

>>530939319
As an iconofag I shit out so much momentum that it doesn't really matter.

overseer idira is so busted it's unreal

>>530938832
Nonsense, Iconocuck

>>530939319
I don't need any of those alignment perks from any of them to break the game. Hell, I even don't need the second archetypes let alone exemplars. That's the point. You didn't find THE cheese, you found A cheese. One of the gorillion+1 in the game.
That said all off the routes are very inconsistent , have their share of retarded moments and wtf decisions and imho the game would've been better without ANY of them existing as they do right now.

>>530937937
You can maxx out icono without any of those
>Then you admit your ethos is inferior to its opponenys
My ethos isn't "One of the three alignment the games offers" because I can picture a spinning apple in my brain

>>530939645
i'm not the iconofag you were arguing with, Dogma also have a choice on Janus to ally with Eldar vs Slaanesh

>>530938760
If 8 is too much you can just donate to a temple afterwards until you reach the right number.

>>530937780
Bullshit, but justify all you want.
It's simply exploiting a poorly thought mechanic to be overpowered (which leads to a less fulfilling game for anyone except toddlers)

I'd suggest to mod out any XP for writing scrolls, in fact.

We love to sleep after each encounter /here/

>>530942569
but that doesn't make sense, we're trying to rescue someone who's being held captive and we can't stop to rest after every single fight!

lmao ok cuck congrats on wasted potential

>>530942973
I've seen what the alternative is. Just don't drape it around altruism, because you're doing more harm by bypassing the system.

>>530942912
Why?

I never know with these games.
Am I on an actual timer to go get my home worlds sorted out in rogue trader? Or is it just gonna slightly change things depending on which one I visit first and not how fast I actually get there?

>mug of vegetable soup
>freshly baked sourdough
>a small salad mostly with things from the garden
it's time once again, for me to play a role in my favorite crpg, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

What does rouge have to do with being a rebel

>>530943543
No change from order but there's a big difficulty spike from Janus/Dargonus to Kiava Gamma since the game expects you to do stuff on the way there.

Oi is it a good idea to start a rogue trader campaign now or should I wait until the wave of hotfixes stop?

Yeah. I will be killin that Kroot and Aeldari in Dark Heresy. The Inquisition will not tolerate Xenos.

>Send coffee girl to Danrok thinking I can get coffee on the bridge

I hope she gets a good epilogue out of this and I didn't just waste a buff.

>>530943657
Zest

>>530944230
hold it off until the giant patch comes out. once you start the game, its hard to put down and right now, the gameplay is way too easy

>Bladedancer's Death Warden scales Medicae off of Weapon Skill
>Executioner's Anatomy Expert ties Wounds to Medicae instead of Toughness
>Exemplar's Peak Condition Increases STR by 20% of Max Wounds
>Exemplar's Destroyer reduces enemies' armor by -STR% each attack, stacks
>Blade Dancer's Bloody Requiem and Face of the Sovereign increase resolve with each kill
>Voidborn's Pride amulet increases Medicae by 2XResolve with each kill, which in turn increases Wounds, which Increases STR and increases the Armor reduction from Destroyer
>Executioner's Reckless Abandon Turns 30% of your max Wounds into Temporary Wounds and increases your damage based on your max wounds
>Malpian Shroud increases damage based on your Temporary Wounds

She just rapes everything on screen.

>>530944409
eta for that big patch?

>>530944507
>press one button

>>530944230
Just torrent the last version before the second dlc and you should be good

>>530944590
my guess, august or september. they've been working on it for quite a while but they said its the biggest patch as of late

Kind of crazy how fast you level in RT, every second fight is a level up. Progression is so fast it feels kind of lame imo. Is that just how it is the whole game or does it slow down after chapter 1?
>>530944409
Isn't that months away though? Also its owlcat, the big patch will probably cause more problems than it solves and need weeks of further patches anyway.

>>530944693
oh shit thats not as far away as a I thought. I guess I should have waited before I started my first playthrough.

>>530944685
>Just torrent the last version before the second dlc and you should be good
but I own the game and the 2 season pass

>>530944886
That's how the whole game is. Congratulations, you found the one CRPG that has managed to make leveling of all things, feel like a chore.

>>530944886
It is the whole game. They didn't adjust for all the extra XP from dlcs.

>>530945085
Alright, even easier. Revert to a earlier version or play with the bugs.

Can you go blind on your first playtrough of rogue trader? or should I follow some build online?

>>530944886
i would hold off on the game now if i were you as well. you're probably not too absorbed in it, but yeah, their patch is gonna have hot fixes along with them. i've no doubt they're adding new things to the patch like dialogue, visuals, voice acting, like how they did with the patch that game out days ago. its also my guess on when the patch will be released, i hope it wont officially be somewhere in like november/october

>>530945171
It was still like that even before the dlcs

>should I follow some build online?
do zoomers actually do this?

>>530945206
Go blind, in case you've played the other Owlcat games, this is nowhere near as obtuse as Pathfinder, there are a lot less archetypes and most of them will become death machines by mid act II even on Unfair.

I'mdoing void shadows
How the fuck do I beat the void station
That thing is utterly busted

>>530945206
this is heresy. do you not usually play crpgs blind?? go play the game anon and don't use a guide

>>530945206
The game is incredibly easy and forgiving unlike PF.

>>530945381
idk I don't often play crpgs and sometime you make one fuckup and your character is ruined. there's a reset build button in this one?

>>530945567
Merchant on your ship lets you respec.

>>530945651
blind it is then, I guess I'll play noble officer it seems to be a good pick for a first time

>>530945567
you're good. as another anon said the game is very forgiving. it might seem like too much at first but using training wheels often is

>>530944230
Once all four season passes come out you can finally play the game to completion

>>530943237
You need Corrupter Stinky Clouds for Gargoyles and then you need either Summons or Ice Grease for Ghouls.
The climb is rather long because of how many undead are there.
Afterwards, the extra area that opens up later(where you contact Arue) is WAY easier because there're no Undead and everyone is vulnurable to Stinky Cloud +2 Mythic level 2 basically means +2 DC to Conjuration as well.

>>530945887
do not recommend..dark heresy will be long released by then

>>530945224
eh I'll just keep playing for now, I have no idea how the systems work yet so I'm sure I'll still get some challenge.
>>530945119
It's so weird how fast it is. I spend more time picking talents then actually playing the game. I feel like I'm gonna hit the level cap by chapter 2.

>>530945991
Takes like 1-2 rests to clear that whole map unless youre playing on higher than core maybe but even then i'm sure most cbt enjoyers can get it done faster

Needing an entire week is actually just a brain cell issue

>>530874146
lol I had no idea she was suck a cuckoldress
In my playthrough I didn't touch the slavers because I thought it would piss her off too much

Whelp. Going to jump in now.

Is resolve not calculated by FEL anymore?

>>530946436
Oh I mean Unfait of course.
For instance, You can clear Maze with 0 rests on Hard but same exact builds will require 2 at the very greediest.
Unfair teaches you to never value your time.

>>530946692
Are you expecting an applause or something?

>>530947343
>wow look I'm on le 4chan I have to be edgy and stuff, do I fit in now guys?

>>530947781
Yes. So why do you feel the need to document and broadcast every mundane action, thought or fart you do like you're on instagram or something. Play the game and then talk about it.

Was the "news" really just the main theme?

Arch Militant is still fun even though realistically all I need is Kibbles to clear any combat encounter because she's so busted.

>Doesn't let me skip the dumb play as Kibbles section by just lighting everyone on fire

Lame

How come everyone is still talking about Kibellah? Nobody cares about the new guy?

>>530952527
Yeah all I could focus on was her comically fat ass.

>get to final act of any cprg

Feels like this is a common thing

All the put him out of his misery bits in RT are funny with a flamer.

Best written/developed Kingmaker companions?

>>530952974
The final act of every crpg is shit

>>530949058
You can realistically clean up everything with Idira/Heinrix doing pyromancy too (fun interaction is Heinrix doing carnival to give everyone burning and pressing firestorm).
Only difference with Argenta/Ulfar/You arch militant soldier is having to run around a bit more to do it

>>530952974
Kingmaker is one of the few ones that avoided this for me. It really felt like a proper climax.

>>530952974
The final act is usually ass and rushed

>>530953083
Jubilost is cool

>>530952404
AND if you do not romance her, she ends up with Taash

>>530953083

Holy shit Bounty Hunter Pasqual is broken.
I don't even have tracking boots and I'm not stacking bounty hunters.
Plain hot on the trail spam means he gets a extra turn every kill
Even with just 1AP I can claim the bounty + shoot somebody else thanks to his plasma talent wich stacks overcharge protocols like crazy
Try to proc exploits as much as possible for Tide of excellence, +1 flat damage is very relevant since your % damage increase climbs like crazy. I don't even bother looking up how many exploits somebody has before attacking, overcharge protocols makes exploit damage boost irrelevant.
If I want more AP to analyze + tactical knowledge I just use mark as prey a shitter and claim the bonty on him for 2 extra AP that turn.
Prey extra turns are meh.

His only weakness is mobility but he fucking wrecks any encounter with enough small fry running at you.
Yrliet bounty was alright on my first playthrough but she doesn't come close to this madness.

>>530953083
Jubs, Ekun, Nok-Nok and Jaethal.
Memes about their romances or how likeable they are aside, the actual writing and development for Octavia, Reg and their interjections or reactions with other characters is pretty solid (Jubs/Octavia is always interesting).
While I do not like Val's questline much, she is full of woman moments and an autist.
The twins are okay, but they have 1/3d of the interjections. Kanerah stands out a bit more.
For the rest, I did not care about their gimmick or questlines as much, but they can bounce off decently in banter, so I do bring them along too, not just for their quests

>>530953764
Extra BH turns from Yrliet or Idira to apply more trail/prey and exploits he gets damage from make it even funnier.

you can't be fucking serious

>>530953083
black ranger and the smols

>>530945385
Even PF is pretty forgiving on Normal, which is what new players should be playing at.

>>530954127
Sounds like a fun RP moment

>>530954060
I'm not 100% sure how it works or if its bugged but I think you can't have multiples "hot on the trail" setup at the same time unless you used them on different "rounds".

I was devastated once I noticed he didn't auto apply exploits on extra turns but so far doing great anyway.

>>530953159
That's partially because House at end of time and after it is brutally hard.
People meme about the difficulty, but it's part of charm (at least after you remember to pay blind fight tax).
WotR didn't feel as good because Iz was too easy. Act five picks up only in Threshold, and by then game is over already.

>Cumrag
>Unfair Commissar or Malice fight
no one playtested this shit

>>530955147
>game difficulty is "unfair"
>wtf why didn't they check if it was fair!
That's besides the fact the commissar is really not that hard.
Haven't tried Malice on unfair though

>>530955147
If you want the easy way out, run away from Malice and kill the chaff to gain momentum and Commissar joins you in 2 turns.
You are a weakling and a disgrace if you rely on that, but what to do.

>>530941358
That's a weird aversion you have there. It's cheese when you intentionally forget spells to learn spells (again) for the XP, mate. Getting XP for traps, locks and learning spells is just a normal game mechanic. Learning all the spells you can is just a normal thing any wizard would do. No big deal. I dunno what your big hang up is.

>recruit Kest to replace Seelah
>his click lines are all zombie grunts
Fucking why, he spoke in full paragraphs to me not an hour ago
Things aren't looking good for Arue, think I'm going full Lich instead of Legend. So we either break up or she dies.
If you go Legend, you keep the Lich spells right? You just lose all undead and your 10th level spell + Lich powers?

>>530953083
Valerie because she's written like an actual woman

>>530955306
my issue is that you are basically stuck with Yrliet only, we are both snipers
>>530955438
my initiativ is super low because I have no AGI so everyone basically just surrounds me and I can't place my character outside the bridge and are forced into melee range of Malice for some reason

Your argenta? Your Solomorne? Your Abelard?

>>530956223
All undead companions are like that, even Queen Galfrey

>>530956486
You should have at least 1 more companion.
Argenta, Solomorne, Abelard, Pasqall and Jae are all first rounders.
Unless your other 4 were Idira, Cassia , Heinrix and Kibs

>>530956852
Jesus, really? At least give them some mumbled words.
I guess they're 'free' companions so I shouldn't complain too hard.

>>530942973
It is what you are supposed to do, retard

Jae hasn't triggered yet,kibbs and Idira stuck at the homoculi and found Solo but his dog doesn't work and he just dies to 60 damage crits from 2hander guys
Gonna try kiting with Yrliet and using low prio ability, really annoying how much of the fight is decided if I'm allowed to go first or not

>>530954127
Is that permanent permanent or just until you can cure traumas?

>>530958219
lucked out on going first, had a few restart and was able to body block Malice with Gladio and getting a few lucky crits on the 2 Incubus guys

>>530960420
I uh
Yeah, anon, if you're taking my meaning of retard to mean literally mentally challenged he didn't start babbling and drooling on himself
He's contradicted his entire worldview, which he's tried hammering home every time you interact, without a hint of self-reflection.
>>530960678
No, his advice frequently is impractical but simply follows Law.
His advice would've had you hanging half the crusade before it even got started, and we see how that's worked for him.
>>530960882
I did I've just never used the Undead til this point because all their stats are dogshit except Delamere

>>530961017
>He's contradicted his entire worldview, which he's tried hammering home every time you interact, without a hint of self-reflection.
None of this is covered by the word "retarded" and is indeed covered by the word "hypocritical". Just because you can't into english doesn't mean others can't to

>>530961017
>He's contradicted his entire worldview
It's not the first time he's done that. In the drezen siege when you're helping fake Yaniel and she postulates the question of using whatever power you can, Regill can comment "Yeah I don't see a problem with that" AND "no fuck that" in the exact same reaction tree depending on whatever other companions you have that chimed in. He's Lawful Evil to the core, not Lawful Neutral.

>>530961475
there will be such options if you have enough heretic points and opened the altair

>>530961475
You need to be a heretic to do that

I get what you're saying but I'd hang more than half the crusade myself if given option.

>>530961496
Not to worry, illiterate brainlet-kun, that's not gonna happen any time soon

>>530961543
Interesting. Do you ever get the chance to actually call him on that shit?
I guess I've just never used him long enough to see that and had to deal with his autistic fanboys (530962146) for long enough the entire well has been poisoned.

>>530962142
Well, why didn't you?

Yolo

>>530961017
The thing about Regill is that he's not a lawtard. Dep down, he's a whimisical old gnome that is gritting his teeth so hard that gums bleed to pretend that he's a tough-ass lawtard.
Dude hears about hellknights losing the fort they just established and his first reaction is to organise a sham "test of character" for the KC.
Nice excuses, but I can recognise a gnome prank when I see one.
