Baldur's Gate Baldur's Gate III by Larian Studios - it's turn-based and isometric, folks

The nwn module that beamdog is selling,they tyrant of something,has a good writing,tho the rest is pretty garbage for now.

 

Only good module storywise in the NWN franchise is MotB. Enough said.

 

Not really,it is highly overrated on the codex,but i am not big fan of it. It has some good ideas and a chat with a god,but the rest is not really that good,in my book.

 

It might be overrated, but all the other official modules are just more of the same campy adventure fantasy story.

 

Yeah because eating spirits and talking with gods is not . Now BG1 does have pretty good story,it is a market fixing scheme and makes it more grounded up and realistic. Any high level campaign end up being a pretentious garbage. The tyrant of something,the module that i am playing has some pretty good writing,really digging the companions and how well they are written,but the rest is cringe worthy garbage. You are running around and defending fishing villages from archdemons and adult dragons lol it is retarded beyond believe. The game should have been from say level 3 upward,not a level 15+ retardation.

 

Enderal is better written than most RPGs

 

Fuck yeah,it is great game. Shame that they have that many pointless dungeons. More side quests would have been great. Also check out spellforce 3,i believe that the writer is the same dude,and the game does have one of the best writings i have seen in the last decade.

 

Explain its deepness and why it's better compared to RTwP, and also why RTwP is trash and what what is that good baby "strategy".

 

You can start here. If there are more questions, the search function is always open for more.

 

What are you on about? D:OS was the Codex GOTY in 2014, of course people here like the combat system.

 

Yeah no matter what people say about pausing, TB takes significatly more time to get through similar encounters than RTWP. Take kingmaker TB mode for example, it's cool and works pretty well minus the (inmy opinion) unclear UI, BUT going through the entire game with it took me almost twice as much as my average RTWP playthrough on harder difficulties.
TB can implement functions like skip enemy turn etc to reduce that but it's obviously not an optimal solution0

 

Almost as if turn-based games focus more on meaningful fights and RTwP just throw trash fights everywhere.

 

Dude, don't you know that TB is a very deep strategic and bla bla system but only in the veeeery prestigious games that no one plays? that TB in mainstream sucks just like anything else? that "turn-based lovers" even ashamed to admit they like DOS'/nu-X-com's gameplay while they are jumping with joy waiting for Larian's AAA TB BG3? That they can't even sleep with this inherent butthurt for the fear of losing codex street cred if they came out clean? Don't you know that Michael Jackson is dead!?

 

Considering Larian are making this garbage, there will be 1 or 2 decent fights in the entire game at most, and am being pretty generous here.

 

Pretty much. Most RTwP games have faster encounters because in most of them the 'wP' tends to become optional, so what you have in fact is a poorly optimized RT game for the majority of gameplay.

And to compare Pathfinder's innate system with a TB mod (or the reversed Deadfire equivalent) does not amount to much of a case in favor of either system since the encounter design was made with only the original system in mind.

 

Except the encounter design/combat was the best part of D:OS1 and 2.
Keep trying to look cool and edgy to impress people.

 

No it's not, brain dead CC fest(or burst fest-> cc fest in 2) just isn't interesting no matter how many explosive barrels Larian throws around.
But I shouldn't expect more from someone with the ugliest PoE potrait.

 

Not my fault you're just shit at the games

 

Your shit taste and the fact that all it takes is some cartoony explosion to keep your interest isn't my fault either.

 

Funny how everyone who has either never played the games or barely played the games always uses the same line "EXPLOOOSIVE BARRELS!" like a fucking NPC

 

can I get a job where DnD session is consider amazing productive work? please?

 

play icewind dale

 

it's too cold

 

Don't be daft. It did well because of the hype of the Kickstarter cRPG renascence meme and nostalgia towards BG, which on its turn was successful because of D&D, graphics, and scope. BG would be hugely improved if it was conceived with turn-based combat in mind. People like you are similar to dogs, maybe pigs. You can get used to anything as long as it has some character progression and tons of quests. You are so used to your low standards and developers' mistakes that they became a benchmark of quality in your distorted eyes.

 

Yet another PoE thread. The curse is so strong that is taking over the BG3 thread.
