Do they change xoti portrait? looks different

Ydwin, Xoti, and Aloth have new portraits.

No doubt that lindsey laney listened to the complaints about the portraits. She doesn't mind taking feedback.

Edit: In the PoE discord, she said that Maia was the only portrait she didn't edit. She also hints that her work is never done, so I expect a few more edits.

They still don't look good as fan mades, but they are better than previous ones.

Xoti now is attractive enough and Ydwin is not a old grandma monster anymore.

Hold on. Does that mean when you installed the Critical Role DLC the old voice actors won't be present? Since they are doing the major chars as well.

crazy they made stealth usable so many times per encounter in deadfire. It was essentially a I win skill even without the added backstab damage in pillars 1 as you could ignore threats and park your rogue behind a boss enemies rear and win encounters.

Yep, crank up the "subscribe" sound so that it drowns out the guy talking about the game.

I love streamers.

He is also complaining that he ran out of money in the Beta...

So he chose the option to not engage them in a fight and watch the execution only to end up being thrown into a fight anyways.

Choices 1-4 all have a hidden arrow pointing to choice 5.

he encounters a band woedica about to execute someone, they ask if he plans on interfering and he answers that he is there to "watch the show". Then they immediately attack him anyway, even though the player just opted for the obvious non-combat answer.

Baldur's Gate: Oh you woke up in the castle where you grew up? Here let random priests tell you random trivia everywhere as if you never talked to them before while you do crappy fetch quests for people that could easily do them alone. Oh hey bad guys! You must leave! OH NOES EVIL PEOPLE KILL YOUR MENTOR/DAD BUT SOMEHOW FORGET TO KILL YOU! THEY ALSO CONVENIENTLY LEAVE HIS STUFF BEHIND! RUN!
PoE: Welcome to Eora. You are travelling with a caravan and while it stops for the night somewhere, you are sick and need to find some way to heal yourself. You go around and deal with some initial learning encounters and the biawac happens to force you in the well designed tutorial dungeon.

(You see, you can apply bullshitry easily anywhere you want)

I prefer BG 1 start better even if it is more generic fantasy, some dude wants to kill your foster father and fuck your skull, you need to flee like a little bitch, THE END! PoE start is way too reliant on coincidence and introduce concepts way too fast, you are hit by some strange magic wind, a soul crystal purple fart wind, are raped by soul magic from crazy cultists and get to a city where all babies are dead on just 30 mins, you know, the usual dream after alot of marijuana.

When you say "I'm just here to watch" in that situation, its sarcasm.
