The Lost Valley DLC for Solasta: Crown of the Magister was released yesterday. While the centerpiece of this release is the new campaign, the new features released alongside it may prove to be more important. With multiplayer support and new dialogue & quest scripting capabilities for its dungeon maker, Solasta might now be a viable replacement for the venerable Neverwinter Nights. Tactical Adventures have also thrown in a few bonus gameplay improvements, including a much-needed fix for the game's poorly balanced surprise mechanic. Anyway, here's the launch trailer. There were too many new features for Myzzrym to describe them all in the accompanying community video, so he chose to focus on the nine new subclasses included with the DLC.

​

The Lost Valley DLC is available on Steam and GOG for $13. The accompanying patch notes are available here. What next for Tactical Adventures, I wonder?

Is there still Tesco commercial voice acting?

I have not got Solasta working properly on Linux yet. I very much want to play this though.

 

[Berengar]

Oh cool! Might be time to reinstall now that theres more content

So how's the writing here?

Second this. Without a solid plot, characters and questing it's worthless.

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

Neverwinter Night replacement eh?

 

[lukaszek]

thieves still cant use scrolls?

 

[Whisper]

What are impressions?

 

[Stoned Ape]

What are impressions?

They're when a comedian imitates the voice of a famous personality.

 

[Late Bloomer]

This game is like the fat girl you settled for. After you get done playing you kind of wish you never did... it.

Works fine for me in Ubuntu with default compatibility mode in Steam.

Wait?! You don't have a Windows Gaming PC?

The real content is in the workshop. The editor now is a real complete tool.

old classic D&D modules are starting to pop in the workshop, like:
“ Wink wink temple of evil “

Who still uses Windows for gaming in 2022?

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

Co-op BG3?

Spoiler

You can have multiplayer sex in Baldur’s Gate 3

Hmmm.... this site has that sex position diagram so that reddit post was surely mocking the other game. I don't know who to believe these days but more than likely it was for BG3.

Who still uses Windows for gaming in 2022?

Apparently a shit ton of people

That is just Steam numbers which is indicative of 120 million active monthly Steam Users.
Actual numbers are much much higher as not everyone uses Steam actively for, say, Fortnite or WOW, or Minecraft.

As of 2021, North America accounted for over 106 million console gaming users, more than a 42 percent of global console gaming audiences

Looks like about 50/50 console/PC users.
PC is obviously superior of course, but little kids like consoles because Mommy and Daddy can buy it for them
Phone gamers are not worth mentioning because they are filthy casuals

Linux barely 1%

yeaahhhh, how many other games have had workshops offering the promise of untold fan made scenarios?
I can only think of maybe 2 or 3 games where the fans EVER made anything decent

Mostly positive? Questionable source.

 

[ZodoZ]

For some reason I have that on ignore in my Steam list.
Most likely meant i downloaded and tried and was not impressed enough to play it.

 

[Q]

Writing is banal and forgettable. But the real strength is combat which was super fun for me.

By playing both Torments did you all find a meaning to "what's does one life matter?"
