    Warhammer Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader - turn-based Warhammer 40k RPG from Owlcat Games

    I have a problem, I admit it. I can't help myself!

    Warhammer Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader - turn-based Warhammer 40k RPG from Owlcat Games

    So I updated the game and now I can't speak to my companions in the bridge and cargo >100% displays the same number as if the contents added up to exactly 100. Typical Owlcat release experience, every patch is a coin flip on whether it breaks something new and unexpected.

    Ah, so that's why they hand out levels like candy in their system

    Warhammer Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader - turn-based Warhammer 40k RPG from Owlcat Games

    Been playing this. Reached Chapter 2 before I hit the infinite seize the initiative bug and shelved it for some patches. It's fun, I really like the writing, the atmosphere, the characters (other than the rogue psyker, but sister Argenta did her duty when it came up). The mechanics I'm less a...

    Baldur's Gate Baldur's Gate 3 RELEASE THREAD

    Greenwood has a magical realm and a self-insert DMPC, but this has only ever been relevant to his own group and some of those who are terminally online. I've run and played in the Forgotten Realms for literal decades, read most of the available sourcebooks and novels, played most video games set...

    Shadowheart's voice actress is also a qt. It's curious how western devs keep making fantasy women that are less hot than real women. And by curious, I mean completely predictable in this day and age.

    Baldur's Gate Baldur's Gate 3 RELEASE THREAD

    Tieflings have been the race of choice for annoying "funny" persons at the table since 4e made them a core race. Rogues and bards are indeed more popular choices for that demographic, but barbarian is not as uncommon as you think. All three classes give them enough of an excuse to play as the...

    Baldur's Gate Baldur's Gate 3 RELEASE THREAD

    Despite my complains, the game has offered plenty of Paladin-specific options that were very appropriate and I'm still early on. I'm mostly baffled that some retard in Larian thought these specific options were fitting for a paladin, especially since there are so many others that actually are...

    This option is not at all consistent with the Oath of a Paladin of Devotion, who's supposed to protect the weak and innocent. I even tested with a quicksave, not even picking that option pocketing the money and leaving her to her fate causes you to fall. Definite Decline.

    Lying AND extortion? What the actual fuck is wrong with these people, there's a perfectly good Paladin option right there!

    I've played about five hours and it's not as bad as I feared. That's all I can say so far.

    Baldur's Gate Baldur's Gate 3 RELEASE THREAD

    I decided to give this a chance before summer is over and what the fuck, why is the Paladin option to lie? Why is "we must kill it" a persuasion instead of a deception roll? Why do I not even have the option to try to tell them the truth and convince them?

    Pathfinder Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous - Enhanced Edition - now with The Lord of Nothing DLC

    Oh, I see. I had almost forgotten that they had issues with the publisher they chose for KM, and that they bought their independence with the profits. Thanks. A few more questions now: I see that only the first out of 3 planned DLC for Season Pass 2 has been released, is that right? Is there...

    WotR is not in the same situation? It still has issues?
