Halflings are essential. Delete Elves.

Yes we have to take them to Isengart.

Important question.

About food

Can the Swarn eat Ember?

 

[smaug]

The more I play this game, the more I’m realizing my inner storyfaginess.

wow, never thought this would happen

 

[TheEntitledOne]

I'm going for Legend, however, you are sent into a questline in which you have to fight a bunch of "shadows" of your own self, except they have the most absurd AC I've seen so far. In the last encounter, back in the Grey Garrison I have to bunch 3 of them, and one of them spam Disintegrate and the like. In a full attack, I may hit them once if I'm lucky, and they immediately heal that much. The only one who can reliably kill them is, off course, Ember. But before I can kill the last one half of my party is out. WTF is with those? They don't seem to have any obvious vulnerability.

Meme races were only added to PnP for monetization purposes

Dhampir should be a playable race. Best race ever.

Remove gnomes that barely different from halflings or halflings and add kobolds or ratfolk. Kobolds at least are kind of amusing in owlcats rendition.

Serpentfolk >>> Furfag races.

Third of all, as I've mentioned before, Owlcat tried way too hard to make their game cinematic. Fighting four waves of enemies while a bunch of soldiers are trying to break down a door is too much (in fact, I don't like successive waves of enemies in the first place, unless they're very rare). Having a million projectiles constantly flying around and often wounding your party members is annoying.

You know what is the coolest thing about Drezen siege?

If you listen to an only competent person in your counsil, you start in position where you could skip all door bashing sequences.
And will get more xp for doing this.
And this probably solves the problem with being constantly shot at...

 

[Justicar]

The amount of boring meaningles exposition dialogue in this game is mind-boggling, Im in the abyss right now and Im giving up on finishing this game. Story is bland and the wiring for the most part is boring and goes on for way too long and when its not boring it's trash.

After this game, Pillars of Boredome and Planescape Numa Numa I think voiced dialogue is the best thing that happened to Rpgs. It forces writers to say more with less instead of constant walls of boring text. I played this game for 40h and cant remember any good conversation it's just constant barrage of bland boring shit. Meanwhile there are plenty of memorable conversations in Gothic 1 & 2, Bitcher trilogy, Fallout 3 Cowboy edition or even Mass deffect trilogy. Come to think of it Fallout 1 and 2 had way less walls of text than this trash fire and had memorable conversations so I guess the writers at Owlfag are just RETARTED.

You can make many things/fights easier if you pick correct decisions instead skipping dialogs like retard

 

[Gangrelrumbler]

Fuck Dhampirs or whatever and fuck all "it's basically this but not really" races
-Delete half-orcs, just make orcs a playable race
-Delete Aasimar and Tieflings, just make some weaker angel/demon species for players to play
-Delete Dhampirs, just add vampires as a playable race
-Delete half-elves, only faggots play them
-Shoot the guy who thought that playing a half-drow was a good idea

No, gnomes and halflings are completely different manlet species. One deserve to live and other deserve to die and be reanimated.

 

[Crispy]

This game is p. fun. I like its overall design and the general scope of its nature.

However, it has some of the most infantile and blatantly out-of-place dialog I think I've ever seen in a "serious" RPG. If another companion says the word "stuff" one more time I'm going to shit myself.

That's all I wanted to say. I probably won't read any replies unless you tag me.

And I hate being tagged.

 

[Haplo]

Respec = Decline.

Simple as that. Stuck with your decisions.

Not when half the class features are bugged to shit. Start with a cavalier, but charge is buggy as fuck?

Mash that respec button.

Exactly. In a game as buggy AND with such complex character building I don't consider that a cheat.

Heck, when I started playing I couldn't get my Sohei any mount other then a horse, even from other classes. Now I can.

 

[Drazhya]

My stance on the writing is that the broad strokes (character/story arcs) are interesting, and the details (prose/dialogue) is bad.

 

[Haplo]

https://youtu.be/DnzVK8lydz8 Foxes are the master race or bug?

I don't like the word "[DRAFT]" near the bonus - because they might fix it - but in general yes. Both YT bolsheviks - an American teacher and a Russian terrorist supporter - mentioned it.

I like this mechanic. And you're burning a valuable Mythic Ability to use it. AND you're giving up your Bite attack and Pounce. So I consider it rather fair.
I plan to take this ability... eventually. Will let me boost Trip CMB (and AB) further - when I fight stationary. Probably very late game, though - there are many more important picks.

Of course its very nice on a ranged character - who doesn't care about Biting and Pouncing.

 

[Zero Credibility]

Wait, wait. There are people that played the Drezen assault and actually did not like it? On the codex? It's a big map with multiple paths through it, filled to the brim with good fights and skills checks, and has what is probably the best song in an already great soundtrack playing while you slaughter demons and cultists all around you. What more can you ask for in a crpg?

 

[AwesomeButton]

I'm pretty impressed and satisfied with the Drezen assault. Just killed the giants yesterday, but I can tell how much thought went into this map. It rarely gets better than this in the PnP-emulating RPGs that I know of.

If Deadfire or PoE could have had areas of comparable size, outside of the expansion packs and some exceptions in the main games.

 

[thesheeep]

Did I miss something or can you really not rest at all in the Midnight Fane?
I mean, you CAN rest, of course, but the difficulty is 37 or sth like that so you're all but guaranteed to fail the check and get at least to the rather crippling lvl 2 corruption level.

Seemed totally insane to me to get through this on Core without doing a single rest. In the beginning I assumed you'd get at least one rest or so (similar to the Drezen siege).
But I had to go through it entirely without resting - took quite a bit of reloading...

I was actually glad the boss of that level is a bit of a pushover compared to the rest of it.

You are supposed to have the BALLS not to rest in a dungeon

 

[Nahel]

The final fight at the threshold was the last straw. Litteraly retarded. 400 damage aoe who cant be resisted.
Fear who bypass all immunities.
81 ac mob with 2 others at 60.
Only way to pass is munckinning or exploiting ia.
And I am in Core. You get allies. So called powerful NPC. They can only hit on a natural 20 and are perma feared.


Did kingmaker on core with barely any difficulty. Only last dungeon was annoying.

Similar shit to the stunner crystals with 40 dc aoe stun every round

And of course you can't rest in the area. Which would be fine if fucking mentionned at the beginning of the area.

Yeah, it's a high check, but you shouldn't get a full level of corruption from just one rest. Even if you fail to reduce it, it should be 2 or 3 rests before you even get to level 1 corruption. Also, there are two relics that will lower it.

Not what happened for me at all.
I was at no corruption when I entered and one rest would be guaranteed to fill 1.5 corruption levels and about 2.5 or so (so almost full) in case of check failure.

A bug, maybe?

Opening the sheet of that encounter should give some kind of Dark Souls-like "Welcome To Pathfinder" achievement

WOTR so far is really weird in the difficulty department, from ez to "kill the designer" and then to ez to normal. They either forgot to make a final pass or played on story.
And Daring difficulty before core got auto-level companions on, really fucking whack.

 

[LannTheStupid]

Now that new Rusty I like.

See what even a small amount of force does to unpleasant people? Now imagine what labour camps and mass executions would do.

There is no "Core" difficulty in Kingmaker.

 

[Mauman]

Whatever this guy above wrote is bullshit.

Besides bugs. Follow the game's steam page and wait until there are no less than 2 weeks between patches.

Are you even actually playing the game yet? You said earlier in the thread you hadn't yet.

I'm sure he knows it is great unlike people such as me who completed the backer beta before (wrongly!) offering criticisms about the game. I profusely apologize for doing so, by the way, I was wrong.

 

[LannTheStupid]

This is kind of informative, methinks.
