The newest patch didn't fix charge getting stuck and loosing you a turn? What the actual fuck. Good thing they've wisely allocated resources. I guess making sure that when fagboy angel buys you flowers the entire room is actually full of roses was fucking worth it. People gave Bioware shit for having a faggot elf hit on you, but unlike Owlcat at that time Bioware was able to deliver a polished game. The only thing that wasn't unfinished in some way on release was faggotry.

So far I get the feeling they learned very little from Kingmaker except how to push more blacks and homos on the player.

Nah doesnt work, i managed it with slighlty lower difficulty and negative eruption spam+ quickened exsanguinates. Anything else is completely useless, the companions are just good to take a few hits. I hear many people complaining about the tavern fight, what will they say when they encounter this, they probably wont ever anyway.
I am intrigued by D's stat block. Care to share some insights? Even description in words are good.
To be fair, 3.X and derivatives aren't really known for exciting high level gameplay.


Ok desiderius mode on, There's like 4 more pages of abitilies.... Totally like a pen and paper game you see...

They actually buffed him up compared to his version in the AP.

The only thing that surprised me is that stablock in PnP Pathfinder doesn't include preferred pronouns.

Ehh, it suits my narrative to not fight her anyway, so I won't bother (this playthrough, at least). Next time I'll be better prepared, but I don't actually have any summons.

She doesn't drop anything and gives only 10k, better to skip.

The least there are long stretches in the game where there is no dialogue, just bashing foes. And some of the encounters are actually really interesting. Wish the game included some sort of an Aracade mode that just takes you from one combat location to another, without the Kingdom management V.2.0, LGBT+3 companions and HoMM V for morons.

I don't like how my PC is able to talk Queen Galfrey out of stuff and into stuff. But what else can I do?

Only from a rollplaying perspective, which is apparently what their encounter designers are dedicated to.

Demons possess a particular suite of traits (unless otherwise noted in a creature’s entry) as summarized here.

  • Immunity to electricity and poison.
  • Resistance to acid 10, cold 10, and fire 10.

Ascendant Element is a must with resistances like this.

There's a loading screen tip which says this verbatim.

Having mandatory perks in your game is Good Design.
I won't pick Ascendant Element and I'm fairly sure I will finish this game without any major problem (bugs permitting). Ascendant Element is mandatory IF you want to deal damage with your blasts (and yes, different perks being good for different playstyles is good design).

Not much point in being a controller when the important enemies are immune to everything later on.

If you guys wanna wait until they fix bugs, you can collect dirt from flower pots in Encased. It's a silly game. Isometric stalker new vegas.

If technology advances in the future and loading times almost dissapear like it happens now with games made 20 years ago, I can already see a whole new generation of retards wondering WTF is on their screens. *tear in corner of eye*

Loading screens will be obsolate but future games will still pause for 10 seconds before entering a new location just to show you the newest LGBT/BLM/Health At Every Size related announcement.

Plus mandatory pauses due to the increasing influence of the Chinese market.
CITIZEN, YOU HAVE BEEN PLAYING FOR 8329 SECONDS. TIME TO TAKE A REST.

Now that's interesting: my party got replaced with a level 0 dwarf. He can't be levelled.

You have reached DebugDwarf. How may I be of assistance?

Update:

I can level DebugDwarf by spam clicking on the top left (icon, ability score, feats...) categories until the screen stops being blank - this brings the full character creation screen (portrait,name, deity, etc). By escaping his bugged level screen with clicking the X button instead of the escape key he stays in the party instead of replacing it. So I put him in the party and character created him - this reset the main's character portrait (?), so I didn't dare continue on that save in fear of whatever invisible horrors were also spawned into being by the process.

The skeletal champion is still a level 1 animal companion that can only wear bardings, unselectable, out of bounds, and popping on and off in the party. It was gone after DebugDwarf party replacement.

Killed a lich with grease today. Imagine: you're transcended mortality, you will never age, never weaken. You are perfectly eternal.

And you die because you fell down and couldn't get back up.

Yea I think I already burned out on this. It has the exact same problems as Kingmaker.
This won't be worth truly playing until they release the first DLC or so, right now it's just too buggy and badly balanced to be truly fun or interesting.

As usual they frontloaded the first Act to make it look like a proper game but the moment you go beyond that it starts to fall apart. Exactly like Kingmaker.

Fun fight. Corrupt magic to strip it of its buffs, tanking it with Blur+Displacement Camellia until the Embrace of Death got through the Will save, and then it was actually killable. Lich Withering Life is useless for most regular fights, but very powerful in these kind of fights.

I quite like how most of the optional mini bosses tend to be harder than the main story. While it somewhat ruins the immersion of seeing a late-game Storyboss have less AC and worse stats than an optional boss in Chapter 3, it certainly spices up gameplay every few hours to run into something that takes a few attempts and requires a specific strategy to deal with.
