Hot damn diggity dudes, playing this on a system that can take a load makes a fuckton of difference. You guys were right about SSDs.
Also are the snow dwarves Finnish or something?

I don't know. I had to take screenshots of some of the area names on the world map just so I could remember the names in case of needing to reference them for whatever reason.

My latest stuff is complete, barring any further bugs to be reported. If you're using the Unfinished Business mod you can uncap it and go from level 1 to 17 in the four man version or to 19 in the six man version.

Until someone make a truly god tier module for this game and it'll be obvious to anyone that have played the OG it's actually superior one I refuse to listen to this impotent "but it's got potential" crap. Solasta's fucking mid, not exactly terrible game, just deal with that already and move on. I'm saying that even while don't care in the least about the crappy plot and the potato faces, and the fucking beards and the pathetic pronouns option in the character creator.

Cataclysm difficulty isn't really difficult, just boring bloated mobs everywhere, nothing special. The vamprire or whatever the fuck was that boss in the castle is still the highlight of the entire game regardless of the chosen difficulty.

Slam

Fucking

Dunk

 

[Lacrymas]

It's worse than mid, the content is some of the most boring in all of RPGdom. Sure, the combat system is ok, but they couldn't have fucked that up because it's 5E, so no points there.

Honestly no idea what you mean, barebones game with modding tool set a la NWN/Bethshit FTW?

Skip skiip skip every time there's a dialogue and it become a pretty good x-com with magic.

My main problem is the how samey the encounters are and the only engaging fight in the entire game is the vampiress.

one can only compare with bg3 and there are many things in favor of solasta. As in 5e implementation, so its not like you get things for free

A good xcom with magic is blackguards

and blackguards this certainly ain’t

Kinda got that but why exactly - not. Like, the French have made any (somewhat decent) implementation of 5e first? Otherwise I'm possibly not familiar enough with the 'slam dunk' term.

"Slam dunk" as a Codex meme originates with Feargus Urquhart and Obsidian, in reference to insisting that an upcoming release is a "slam dunk", and has negative connotations both as a stock image and as a button rating.

Bah, as a peasant arrivée ignorant of the history, I just use it as a term of approval

Imo most buttons have uses both sincerely and ironically... what's fun at times is trying to sort it out. Like does someone like dogs, or is he saying I'm a bitch?

Why not both?

That's why you must embrace the path of custom campaigns from the workshop. Players aren't making their campaigns for the general audience necessarily. They tend to be harder.

Tactical Adventures should get credit for including the campaign maker/editor. It opens up a lot of options.

Why the fuck are there so many flyboys in the expansion?

I don't know. I'm mostly happy with the new demons but I'd have liked one strong, grounded spellcaster yet. With AI that goes balls out on the player with whatever they have to cast.

Artyoan, finished Solasta campaign, loved it, but it was piss easy, even on Iron Mode and suboptimal stats.

I want to try out a hard module. Which one do you recommend?
