Are we seriously comparing DOS with PF? How is this even possible/allowed on a forum for people that are supposed to know something about crpgs and pc gaming in general? I mean, sure, PF games have their serious flaws that should be discussed, but we should strive to maintain some pretense of not being utterly retarded. Someone like desuderius might be tad too autistic even by our standards, but at least you can immediately tell he knows his stuff and does not get into a hissy fit over preschooler "look ma, I'm a gaymer" titles. Also, stop derailing the thread ffs.

The saddest conclusion is that it was desiderius who got the tag and desiderius who got the ban.

Sounds like Paizo's fault, they made the stats for the rest of the universe.
What makes you think the wotr computer game has stats anywhere near the AP's stats?

I don't, the AP stats are probably wrong.

The AP stats are fine. The characters people play in APs are nowhere near as strong as the characters in the CRPG.

Gear/items aren't as strong and people don't min/max as much as there is no need to.

There is no save scumming and the enemies are controlled by a human.

There is no need for the statbloat on the tabletop.

But as I said just a handful of relics and some xp from quests.

Well, some counsels are entertaining, if nothing else:

Although, people who try to RP this as a Holy Righteous Circus Crusade would probably feel a lot of an annoyance.

Is there any reason to pick normal sorc over cross blooded sorc? What is the downside?

You get 1 less spells known in total per spell level that you have access to. So cross-blooded sorcerers have even less spells to choose from and get new spells a level later compared to non-crossblood sorcerers.

It's strange that the downside is not mentioned in the class screen, or at least from what I can tell, but the downside is there and is faithful to the Tabletop version.
Except you gain new spells from 2 bloodlines instead of one and with mythic it can be really memey with 3rd bloodline.

ut it makes no sense. I don't care how epic your adventure is. Mephistopheles has 48 AC in P&P. No PC's should easily get more than it.
What, why?
48 base AC is pretty high. If he is retard and won't buff it is his problems.
If he is not and has idk... barkskin/legendaryproportions/seamantle/fcnlvl1shield he should have something like 70.
And 70 AC for PC is already not that easy to get.

But would be too hard for
tabletop larpers and no save&load, it's essentially game-journo mode.

You just already got all these roses, so can't be mad at the game.

"I joke when i am sad, when i am angry, when I am I always joke lolo" - Lann just sucks.

Personally, I measure my arcane casters by their ability to be useful or, rather, satisfying through the whole game Wizard into AT > Witch > Wizard >
And you are wise. I'd rate Wizard = Witch > AT tho.

I think I had my first minor messed up quest.
Sosiel talked about his brother turning into an asshole... but we never learned any details about his brother. Just that he gave away his shield.

Welp. It's rather harmless. Doesn't compare to Merril in DA2 talking about killing her whole tribe... just before POSSIBLY killing her whole tribe.
DA2 was one fucked up fever dream experience.

Just wanted to share it. Careful, spoilers!
Just found this note in Areelu lab:

That... sound familiar, isn't it?

That... explains why narrator in our Journal is so different comparing to Linzy from Kingmaker.
For example:

Great insight into her character by the way.

And I love things like that in my RPG.

I thought the sosiel bro part was possibly about joining the hellknights? It's not written very well, that's for sure. All companion quest are garbage aside from Regill and Ember basically.

Owlcats can be amazing with their approach to minutiae. Why can't they be amazing or at least somewhat competent more than 50% of the time though.

I can only wonder if they're good half time they are drunk or when not.

Am I right to assume that alcohol ran out after 4 chapters and then it's a crusade-HATEOT?

I thinks this one is pretty easy.
They have some really great writers in their team but those are probably too nice as a people to tell their not-so-great colleagues to cut down on all that filth and crap that they spew on digital paper.

Because in the year of our lord 2021, criticizing the work of your colleague or, even worse, subordinate is considered wrong.

Tbh when Avellone argued that games underuse and underpay editors, can't expect more from not so veteran studio.

But first game was edited much better. Well ok, "amazing" and "much" are not the words I'd use anyway; better-than-average or whats now edited.
