It's not shit but it's not good.
It has great rules implemenation but the actual combat isn't that good for a multitude of reasons.
That's because you are an idiot. NEXT.
Please do not expect him
I just got done with the Lareth fight and totally did not expect the game to throw 2 more significant encounters at me while I was looking to scurry away and lick my wounds. Harrowing but all the more rewarding when I finally came out the other side with a ton of fat loot.
This is co8 fan content, not Troika's work (or Gygax's for that matter).
Well those co8 cunts lied to me then, because i installed the patch that claimed to not have any new content.
Standard versions contain mainly bugfixes, rules compliance modifications, AI tweaks, and content restoration, in addition to a few actual mods like the Rannos and Gremag revenge scenario and the Moathouse Ambush. These are 'mini-mods' compared to the major expansions, and we include them in the standard modpack because we don't feel they significantly impact the balance of the game, and because our longterm feedback indicates that over time, they have become considered part and parcel with the basic game. Many players don't even know that they are mods. The standard modpacks also contain all our custom portraits, voice sets, items, worldmap, et al.

Their definition of "new content" is the same as wesp's in that they think minor alterations to what's already there doesn't count as new content.

Modders gonna mod.
awesome game, wish they had kept making games in that engineWhat a fantastic rpg. Why does this not get shilled here more often?
After I got through the video game equivalent of ambien that is hommlet, this game opened up into one of the best rpgs I've ever played. Excellent combat, deep character building, gorgeous artwork and animations, great atmosphere, and an interesting soundtrack.

And the best thing about this game is I don't have to listen to morons and neurotics babble every 2 seconds, or hear some fag's life story about how he got exiled from his village by bigots, for smoking cock.
I think I made a thread that even got an authoritative stamp of approval. It's fun as hell for anyone who likes tactical combat. It also still looks really nice. I didn't get along with CO8 but temple+ was essential.What a fantastic rpg. Why does this not get shilled here more often?

Dear Codex Relatively New Person,
You are currently dealing with Volourn. Volourn is a rather special member of our community. Please do not expect him to ever do any of the following:
- Explain himself
- Make sense
- Be logical
- Be rational
- Be friendly
- Care what you think or say
If you bear in mind that none of these things are ever going to happen, then dealing with him will be a much less painful experience.
We hope this little bit of advice helps you and enhances your stay at and enjoyment of RPG Codex.
Thank you.

See? Like the game, like its defenders. The dullest.It's more exciting than your mom.
Because that is what RPG have traditionally been about, combat simulations not story.And the best thing about this game is I don't have to listen to morons and neurotics babble every 2 seconds, or hear some fag's life story about how he got exiled from his village by bigots, for smoking cock.
My only issue with it is the movement/positioning. I repeatedly had problems trying to get my characters into the right place (for example to block a hallway or defend my spellcasters).
The pathfinding adds insult to injury here. I think it would have helped if the combat was entirely grid-based and that grid was a little more generous (larger cells).
