Gorgeous for a dwarf/manlet standard.

Now seriously. I created a halfling rogue in my party and OMG, the movement speed of her make all cool mobility rogue stuff worthless. After finishing this run, I will gonna play as 4 shock arcanists high elves. Nobody deserve this manlet and his small legs

Man I thought Wolcen had the worst beards I've ever seen where the chin wasn't attached to the beard at all so the lips kept going under it in ant dialogue but this one takes the cake where it looks to be badly glued on.

Another beardless playthrough it is again then.

Yes, the small races are a surprisingly bad choice for melee Rogues. This is true in Pathfinder as well. Seeing as how most things are faster than you, they can easily outrun and kite you.

Insert Title Here Pathfinder: Wrath
Halfling re-roll of every 1 on a d6 is insane though.

Game’s great and beards and shit looking a lot better than yesterday. Headed in right direction.

Pronouns and Wakandan like tramp stamp on good girl. As long as she’s not too proud of it can work on it. We’ll see.

What the hell - the character models definitely got more ugly from EA to full release.

Anyone willing to put in a facial uplift mod?

Now that the mod for variant human is not working, is there any reason to pick Human?
I get that they couldn't use the variant human because it wasn't a part of the SRD but what's stopping them from making they're own homebrew version of Human? Make something completely different from the variant, no need to be constrained.

It works, the author updated it today. I'm using it and it works fine.

So I can be an authoritarian (Loves rules) Cynic (scoffs at rules). Okay.
Hey man, it doesn't take a genius to see people everywhere screaming about rulebreakers, but when someone points out they do bad stuff too, they say "Well that doesn't apply to me, because I'm right!" This is just as true in magical elf lands as it is on the modern internet.

Instead of being outraged that the player can choose a character's gender, the Codex should be overjoyed that they can be officially represented in game as a shortsighted hypocrite.

Except for a few lunatics who advocate mass murder, no serious person is saying "they don't have a right to exist."

They don't have a right to exist because theirs is not a real condition. They are mentally ill people with delusions and a lot of malicious grooming. They are about as real as people who think they're werewolves.

Mental illness is a cop-out so that people can claim they aren't responsible for their actions. These are just people who have chosen to serve evil instead of good.

Argument: Why you whining about such a non issue that doesn't effect the game or game play.

Counter Argument: If it doesn't add to the game why add it. Oh yeah, pandering. And, not the 'good' type of pandering that adds to the game in any way.

This is a combat/exp[loration game or so I;m told (I; waiting for it to download) so does trans matter if it adds zero to the game? It doesn't even matter if the characters are CIS but nobody worries about it.

When I played IWD, I never worried if my characters were into fukking males, females, dogs, or trolls. IT DID NOT MATTER.

And, transgender is not even a gender so asking to request 'transgender' as your character's gender is silly since, by definition transgender is 'identifying' as either male or female so if you want your character to be male just choose male and voila transgenders.

LMAO


That said, ultimately, I'm gonna judge a game based on quality, but adding shit that adds nothing to the game does make me suspect how much focus on making a good game instead of 'woke points'.


On the surface, it looks like a fun playable game. Let's hope so.

What's the konsensus on this game? I never heard of it before today

It's a pretty decent turn-based 5E d&d game with a modular campaign setup. Looks like the goal is to make it a platform for delivering future quests and adventures.

Has an odd, brutalist UI but it works okay, and the developer has part of his head up his ass, but hey, kickstarter.

The current player count is 3.6K on Steam with a 24h peak of 4.5k. kinda surprised the numbers so much lower than other indie CRPGs like Pathfinder which had a peak of 22k. Is the lack of a big license hurting them or just the lacking budget?
