Larian cultists reviewing BG1/2 - NOW with IWD:EE reviews

[Stella Brando]

Sven deserves to be a 5th face on mount Rushmore if he ends up killing RTwP dead. That is all.

Will you insist that the workers all take turns?

 

[Blutwurstritter]

Larian cultists ? Have they obtained the dark knowledge to summon the Sven ? Do they pray to the holy barrel ? What kind of rituals do they exercise ? I hope there is no mass suicide imminent.

This is better writing than a lot of today's games.

Thank you but it is not surprising. I am a published author after all. You may have read an article of mine if you're an avid reader of Chemical Science, The Journal of Chemical Physics or Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics.

You know we're in trouble when even the gaming nerds are as thick as elephant shit.

A farmer told me once that he had to watch his turkeys at Christmas because if it rained, they would crane their necks upwards at the droplets, amazed at the rain falling from the sky. And if they were in a ditch, they would drown. That's the current gaming generations: look at the matrix and the graphics. And they can't process basic stuff. There's me thinking it was decline when they all stopped reading physical manuals.

Wait untill they have to fight an iron golemn that requires +3 weapons to damage

These larian fags are getting on my nerves.BG 3 looks like an abomination. They could have made Divinity 3 and let the BG franchise alone. They are runining BG like Bethesda did with Fallout.

They are runining BG like Bethesda did with Fallout.

First they came for the Fallout fans, and I didn’t speak up-—because I wasn’t a Fallout fan;

Then they came for the Diablo fans, and I didn’t speak up—because I wasn’t a Diablo fan;

Then they came for me, but by that time there was no one left to speak up for me.

Nice family portrait, man. I never understood your perpetual butthurt until now.

Is this this Elton Ring I keep hearing about?

All this talk about "ruining" BG would be - perhaps - true if there was something to ruin. BGs were just games, a bad one and an OK one, taking old franchise and making bad sequels is normal in entertainment. Unfortunately.
Fallouts at least had established and somewhat interesting lore that was fucked up and Diablo 1 its gothic climate to ruin, though I didn't care much about the latter. Additionally, the change of mechanic was from ok on paper - to even worse for Fallout. For Diablo it was from single player to a slot machine mp game. Even considering all that, the issue is not that they ruined the lore but that F3 & 4 were BAD games. Unless you are a fanboy and care about it more than gameplay.
Otoh BG3 will have the same banal shit boring setting and lore (aka D&D fantasy, FR or whatever) as BGs did. As to the change of RTwP to TB it could only be good mechanically if the game was worth anything otherwise. Which it might not and THIS is the issue.

Baldur Gates' fanboys are like all other fanboys. And so are the Larian ones. One would perhaps say: "Fanboy, fanboy never changes...".

Then they came for me, but by that time there was no one left to speak up for me; because I hadn't allocated myself a pronoun in a RPG.

This puts the saying "What goes around comes around ..." in a very different, disturbing light. I hope those aren't the kind of circles that members of the codex are associated with.

I think Nalia explicitly tells you to use fire and acid arrows during her quest. I think this guy has reading comprehension problems.

Millennials can only read sms language, it is known.
They're illiterate, that's why youtube-tards are so popular.

 

[Jvegi]

I'm gonna let you guys finish, but iwd2 (and bg2 with scs i guess) has great combat. Better than toee, sadly.

What a fcking CHAD. Fuck your nerd sh*t

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

400 page manual? Is that the Illithiad Epic Love Novel or something?

 

[Alienman]

300 pages are about cheese, salamis and squirrels, though.

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

Squirrels? Those are hust fluffy tailed TREE RATS? BLECK!!!

Causal Directed Acyclic Graphs have shown that Autism is the cause for preferring turn based because those minds can not deal with multiple objectives at the same time. They need to take baby step by baby step.

Look at the date, maybe it's April Fool's joke?

[Kalon]

"which I could". I daresay this gentleman could benefit from reading a few 400 pages.

 

[Skdursh]

Honestly I'd give the majority of the content in BG1 a 60/100, mostly because half of the game is made up of huge stretches of repetitive, empty forest maps populated by trash mobs, but people who don't like BG2 just don't have the IQ required to comprehend how to tackle the game.

For some reason I read the title as Leftist Cultists reviewing BG1/2

I gave this to my first year high school pupils as a math class assignment: "What is the curvature of the Turkish penis given equal length size of the population?"

And in my physics class I told them to replicate the experiment.

That is why I asked the girls, the day earlier, to put into their agenda that they had to bring their dildos with them.

I swear no hymens were broken. It was all ethical!
