Decline Sword Coast Legends - RIP n-Space!

ac bonus stacking is and ever was hardcoded.

 

I was wondering what the fuck these guys were talking about throughout the thread, having some familiarity with NWN's toolset myself. The only exception I can think of are effects, which are applied through scripting, but effects are just a package for scripting functions and can thus do anything, so they're rather irrelevant to the topic.

 

Just by the way, the wildly aggressive, profanity laden tangent on stacking bonuses is one of the reasons I have a special place in my heart for the Codex

 

People are having an argument (and seemingly getting angry) about how buff stacking is handled?!

Ahhh... Registering in these forums was the right call. This is, indeed, home. ^_^

 

Looks like another case of "critics hate it, players love it."

 

Almost 90 people like it.

 

Where was that poll? SCLFans.com ?

All joking aside - I am very suspect of the Seed of players who are taking part in the poll.. <100 players compared to how many refunds?

 

The video on this site is somewhat interesting as it shows the DM at points literally DMing as if it was tabletop, having the players RP and roll dice etc (evidently there is a function in the game to roll dice).

I hadn't seen it used like this in other previews and etc.

Pffft look at all that gay roleplaying crap.. go back to NWN 2 losers.. I wanna blow shit up with fireballs!!!!!!

SCL 10/10 GOTY

 

As of right now:

 

60k copies lol. Talk about bombing.

 

I even think that includes approximately 40k of preorders

 

INB4 big publishers think that players no longer want RPG's where you can make your own adventures..

Instead of say.. realizing that players don't want shovel ware games with neutered features.

 

Does. If you look at their graph, it is clear. They've sold around 25k since release.

apparently last two days are still not processed, I doubt they'd go down.

Remember how people actually thought that SCL would be better than POE even in the worst case scenario? Amusing.

 

Or maybe one should not consider polls from official forums worth anything as they are full of fanboys.

 

"People are having an argument (and seemingly getting angry) about how buff stacking is handled?!"

Who is angry fuckface?

Also, once again, I am proven right. Not surprising.

L0L @AOD having higher ratings. Not too surprising thoguh - most people who buy AOD likely knew they were gonna like it anyways b/c they were probably keeping an eye on it pre released possibly even pl;aying over the past 2 decades. Meanwhile, people probably saw SCL in the Steam Store - saw DnD logo or probably 'from ex BIO devs JUST LIKE NWN and DA knowing nothing about it... and, realzied, yeah, it's like those games... but 10x worse. EPIC FAIL.

 

From the article that is lolworthy:


"Each character, including yourself, starts off with a full set of magical armour that renders the majority of what you find useless anyway so your only choice is to sell them. "

FUCK OFF.


"The pathfinding of allies is atrocious and many times I found my Elf ranger sprinting to fire arrows at point-blank range and then subsequently getting torn to shreds"
\
Yet morans defendingt he game *cough* Obsidian fanboys *cough* claimed that SCL had better AI than every other RT w/pause game ever. LMAO


"but to group your characters together and focus attacks on each individual target until everything is dead. "

Huh? That is the best strategy no matter the game. That, byt itself, is not a bad thing. hwoever, it is up to the game dev to make it so that option isn't always easily available.


"My Dwarven thief, who bizarrely didn’t have the ability to steal anything, "

This guy is old skoole. It's a rogue not a thief. Hasn't been a thief for decades. That said, inability to steal? WHAT THE FUCK.



HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

 

It's interesting if you check the front page at http://steamspy.com/, you see the top 25 "trending" games, and all of them have a high rating metascore (80-90%) with one remarkable exception.

 

Thought this was a 'fake Bubbles' post at first glance...

 

Players complaining on the trivial difficulty, even on Hard:

Just a few timid answers deny the obvious, these are some quotes from the rest:

 

Yea, watching some of sstacks vids, this aspect was just atrocious to behold. It's like they're trying their hardest to keep you from having to reload a game/have a party wipe. Why ?

Reminds me of the Toddler saying...lets make the dog invisible because ppl are just gonna reload if he dies anyway.

Ehh...shitty casual games catering to newshits.

 

Lulz...they did.

 

Cant say im surprised, p. much the only demographic that could make this game a success hates it.

 

I don't know... would still chalk it to steamspy metrics. Let's wait a bit.
