Boy, I sure do miss fantasy characters in a fantasy setting speaking in an old-timey or some other appropriate fashion.

Yeah... Instead you are literally surrounded by modern cucks, redditors, trannies and lesbians. What the fuck is this game?
When you mean the faggot thief character and you're a man, he calls you a "dreamboat".Boy, I sure do miss fantasy characters in a fantasy setting speaking in an old-timey or some other appropriate fashion.
Because we can't. We'll be banned from twitter or they'll block us. They won't block their LGBT fans though.Honestly, devs get bullied into doing this largely. Don't get me wrong, they are libcucks themselves, but if you google stuff about this game you can find twitter threads where people are yelling at them for not making the portraits pozzed enough, so the pressure is there. And while you will find people like us complaining in our own spaces, we don't go and yell at them on Twitter every other day to make things more based.
The game actually runs a lot better for me than kingmaker. Faster loading times. Still some stuttering because my computer is shit but nothing crazy. I was worried when the game looked bigger and nicer than kingmakerAlso probably gonna jinx it, but I'm almost to the end of Act 1 and I haven't encountered a single significant issue yet.
Just the usual Unity bad performance shit.
Which is why the classics from the 90s will always be classics. It's just more fun when they say things like "forsooth" and "peradventure". It always feels disquieting to hear someone in full plate say "kinda".Boy, I sure do miss fantasy characters in a fantasy setting speaking in an old-timey or some other appropriate fashion.
Yeah same here, my 1080 is struggling to keep it above 40fps at 1440p on the highest settings. Medium takes me to 60, which was also the case for Deadfire.The game actually runs a lot better for me than kingmaker. Faster loading times.

For me, the game seems more resource intensive than PFKM at 4k resolution. Having to turn the game down to Medium settings in order to get above 30 fps

Wait a fucking second, for real? :D I'm gimping myself nicely it seems. Although I'm planning to become a lich after all and most probably use mercenaries so who cares. Exp for the lem with non-shared xp by the way. 1st try thanks to intimidation from the thread (party was half-damaged beforehand and he hit negressus once). And speaking of the reward, there's a chest with sorta unique ring and amulet AC +1 so it's all good.That exp is distributed to every companion that you have and don't yet have. Which is a 13 way split. Most people go for party-only members, and then figure it out as they go along. I recommend you do the same, Volourn.

Current liberal anti-culture push is something that yelling won't fix
That said they chose this module for that exact reason of virtue signaling to get into the big boys club by pandering to their agenda
I guess I'm ahead of the curve since nobody seems to be talking about this garbage. It's the same bullshit like in Kingmaker House fights.

No way to deal with this with my current party. No way to prgoress.
E: And just like that I beat the fight after a dozen tries. Doesn't feel like an accomplishment though.
The game is extremely overtuned early on. You face level 5 enemies or enemies way more equipped than they should be for your level. I don't know why owlcat thinks this is good game design, there is barely even any reward for beating this overtuned fights too. The game also just gets progressively easier later.
In the maze you are fighting mobs that can hit you for 30+ damage with masterwork or composite weapons and immediately one hit kill even the paladin in your party with no outplay if you don't have hard CC. Why are we level 2 fighting characters that are level 5+ with such weapons?
I was experiencing choice paralysis in character creation until I realized that the companions seems extra pozzed compared to the original. Now that I'm going to make a custom party, I actually CAN play all of those options that I thought would be fun/interesting.

This wasn't my experience at all and I played a two-handed fighter on core so no extra cc. I died 3 times to the water elemental but that was it for the maze.
What difficulty level are you playing on?

I agree, there is bedrock support for this and they are getting pressure from more than just people on Twitter, but it is something I noticed when I googled portraits, and it's definitely part of the climate they operate in. Imagine pandering to these people and still getting beat on every day.
Guys, I don't recommend multi classing Seelah as the Campaign has all evil enemies.
Bards are cool and all but Paladins are custom made for this.

Do they ever figure out the pandering just makes it worse or are they to stuck in the vicious cycle?

If you play on core or above it's very RNG--as tabletop rulesets tend to be. Difference between a crit roll and a not crit roll can be your entire health pool as a very tanky level 3~ fighter.
I think Owlcat's design is to make Core+ overtuned though, since they expect the people playing on that to use all the dirty tricks that make any difficulty a joke. Normal on the other hand is a total faceroll.
If you play autoleveled toons with 12 on every stat then put your extra in your main stats and use your spells and abilities you have to work hard to die after level four on Core. RNG is irrelevant by level seven at the latest.
Reality is not that bad. You guys should try it some time. These games are easier than Icewind Dale.
