please stop promoting your blog for just one second.

This is not about promotion, agendas or dollabills: It's about my love for the game and butthurt generation.

Baldur's Gate: Commentary - Part IV.
Why do you want us to recognize your love for Baldur’s Gate?
:prosper:
Nah,Lilura is a crazy bitch that lives somewhere in asia and loves to get in heated "arguments" with dumb fucks about different shit about the D&D games,and unlike most of you new fags she knows her shit about them. Also her main purpose in life is shilling her blog :),trough and trough one of better faces of the codex. This place wouldn't be the same without her. She certainly more memorable than a bunch of winy new fags constantly complaining about shit that nobody cares.

There are no girls on the internet codex, you know, right?
Depends on your definition of a woman.
Does the internet definition of GIRL count ?
GIRL = Guy in real life
There are no women on the internet,but that doesn't mean you shouldn't be pretending that there are some after all. Do it in the name of hope and optimism.

It's instantly balanced when you implement the same mechanic for enemies. The idea is more to keep things moving, not so much to make the player overpowered.

As for getting angry when you miss, you get that in the proposed system, only next time you miss, you get a statistically meaningful (+10%) improved chance to hit the THIRD time.

Doing it for all sides is certainly be a step in the right direction, but I think that such a change will cheapen the armour / dodge system, making it less worthwhile to be heavily armoured. Which isn't a good thing. I think that if the misses were properly presented to the player (misses that would hit the armour or shield do so with a satisfying sound, misses because of dodging would cause the target to duck, etc.), there would be no need for increased hit chance.


Yes but it's not lack of talent or technique, it's just always a facile and puerile artistic sensibility.

You just implied you’ve seen a lot of BG porn. Let that sink in.

I'll do you one better: BG porn incorporates the tired fantasy porn trope of orcs being these brutish rapelords that break minds. We all know that orcs are pretty much black people in high fantasy, as the similarities are remarkable (stupid, ugly, ruins real estate value, etc.) so it is very disheartening to see a prestigious IP like Baldur's Gate and their vast potential wealth of fine women be degraded into another run-of-the-mill "me orc, me fuck" drawing.

I'd like to see more creativity in the high fantasy field when it comes to quality porn art. You have a Monster Manual, people, USE IT.

My team has the sexiest and deadliest waifus you can recruit.
But I was told it's all about ethics in heroic adventuring

Just as long as they don't have a non-existent familial bond by way of her knowing and being friends with his adopted father!
