Normally it should be today right?
hi there!
it has been a busy month and I have not been as active as I would liek to be so the last update was sea shanty songs that will be original to the game and its regions kind of like the books we all read and enjoyed in Pillars rightg? there will be a lot of singing to be had as we sails around the sea plus a sea sahnty unlocked after a certain thingy happens that is what I am going to come out and say so I hope it happens because of a lot of what we discuss here has happened even with the lack of posts by some at obsidian who hang out here they still read so keep the suggestions c oming and help out!!
probablky kind of dumb with cannibals because would it be hidden from the player though righgt? Does a cannibal like a vegan and they tell you on the second conversation choice so you do or do not take them on your ship or does it just happen and as captain you have to figure out via a quest-line who is eating your crew? that would be kinda neat if there was a quest to catch cannibal-crew before they eat everyone and you become strandecd at sea. Can my barbarian/druid eat the crew? Can I get hungry and eat them. It should go both ways righgt?
"Hi my name is Crispy I am a cannibal can I join your crew anyway?"
makes me wonder how many players would be screwed if they were not told it was a cannonball and in the middle of sailing around your entire crew is eaten due to lack of food and does the coannonball eat normal food to blend in and just nbible on the crew when they can?
sailors ate one another due to conditions they encountered for survival it seams a little out of palce unless we are sailing in the open sea for weeks on end or get stuck in ice.
Thanks,

Every time I read this dude's posts, an elusive feeling creeps out of wasting my life away reading his aberrations.

Video update...hmn.

This kind of flavor doesn't do anything by itself. It's like going "Hey, look! I've got turmeric, cumin, chili flakes, oregano, rosemary, thyme, curry, garlic powder, nutmeg and a bunch of other spices!", sure, that's a lot of flavors, but if you don't cook something with them it's for its own sake. It's not even that, it's more like "try to imagine all these spices I have". And I feel this is where this word mix is going. I suppose some people like that, but this is the Bethesda way, lots of stuff doing nothing. It's not really a criticism, mainly an observation. I guess you can argue that they technically do something, i.e. the classes change slightly, but eehhh.
EDIT: It also begs the question - do these extra names represent actual professions/occupations people in Eora can have (which is the way to create actual substance with that flavor) or are they only a UI element? If they are only a UI element why do they exist? It affects the world as much as the color of said UI does. Why is the UI arbitrarily assigning names to random shit? Who is even watching their character sheet enough to remember they are an evoker instead of a wizard if such a thing doesn't exist in the world?
You could lob the same criticism right at Bg2 kits, there is practically no in-game reference to them. Maybe Cernd counts.
You could lob the same criticism right back at Bg2 kits, there is practically no in-game reference to them. Maybe Cernd counts. Psure they'll do better in that regard since they likely recognize it as a problem.

I don't recall Cernd's class (Druid - Shapeshifter) ever being brought up in dialogues.
The closest we got to this was Yoshimo's (Thief - Bountyhunter. He's basically hunting you to bring you to Irenicus), Keldorn's (Paladin - Inquisitor. His racist views and even more rigid paladin behavior, especially concerning Viconia), and Valygar's (Ranger - Stalker. His magical ancestry (which he fights against) is probably responsible for the minor spells he has through his Stalker kit) classes being an unspoken, but logical parts of their characters.
Sawyer spent a few days thinking up multiclass titles because it amused him and he thought it would add a bit of character. Complaining about this is literally not worth the calories required to make your fingers move on the keyboard.
I do, but I give it a bit more leeway because there was no other way to make changes to the classes. Feats didn't exist yet, so pushing arbitrary buttons on the UI was the only way. PoE doesn't have this problem, the special attributes of the subclasses can be feats or bonus feats you can pick up at level 1. It's also worth mentioning that Forgotten Realms do have in-universe lore for each class kit, even if BG2 didn't mention most of them.
Psure there will be enemies with subclasses who will use their kits, I seriously doubt Sawyer pass on that.
I agree with you about feats, but PoE has been bombarded as being bland (even on aspects it really isn't) so subclasses are likely a pushback against that.
My big beef with them is that inevitably they are going to clash with somebody's character concept. There's a big difference between a spellblade (Fig/Wiz 19/1) who wants to run into the frontlines naked for the increased action speed, and just intends to cast mirror image and arcane veil as armor, and an Eldritch Knight (Fig/Wiz 1/19) who wants to nuke from the back row in full armor and took a level in fighter for the reduced armor penalty on his casting speed. My vote is they should have the canon multiclass titles so they can easily describe the multiclassing of NPCs, but should let the player reassign the multiclass title to his PC so that it will fit with the character concept that he wants.Sawyer spent a few days thinking up multiclass titles because it amused him and he thought it would add a bit of character.

The names of the subclasses/multi-classes are also literally a recited list of words Sawyer came up with or looked up in a dictionary.
