Trigger the codex with a statement.

[Kruyurk]

Two triggering statements >
1 - The power of mages should`t be balanced, nor overpowered or underpowered every time. Should be dependent on the setting. Eg - being a mid to high level wizard in Netheril should be a cakewalk compared to in Athas(Dark Sun)
2 - When you talk about Baldur`s Gate outside of Codex, everyone will assume that you are talking about Baizuo`s Gate 3, not BG1/2

' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' '
Take a few of these and copy-paste them in your future posts because this was too triggering to read.

Balance ruins rpgs

There's too much gritty dark fantasy these days

We need more whimsy

 

[Baron Tahn]

Was that just a 'posting cos it might trigger someone' or you actually believe that? If so please point me at the gritty dark fantasy because I haven't seen any that I can think of, ever. Perhaps Darklands?

Your eyes must not be working then, because some of the biggest fantasy RPG titles of the past couple decades have been dark fantasy (Dark Souls, DA:O, Diablo III, etc)

Arcanum is subpar/mediocre. i agree setting is cool and writing is mostly good, however, quest design is a far cry from Fo1/2, the build system is abysmal and its terrible for character building, midgame is a fucking grindfest due to black mountains mine, combat sucks and the dungeons are the shittiest part of the game, they take way too much time dedicated to the worst part of the game by far. writing can only carry a game so far. it has to be stellar in order to outshadow a game as broken as arcanum, which its not. its good, but not great.

You disappoint me, son.

Disregard that, i mistook you for another person in the FO1 thread.

With that being said Arcanum is great and you should give it another try.

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

Anyone give the arcanum creation set a try? The few mods created with it i tried a long time ago were horrible.

i had beaten it 3 times, as said i like the story and writing, i just dont like the game as a complete package.

So you willingly admit to not finishing it 7 times and come in here with your uneducated opinion?

Do you even understand that 3 is less than 7??

And you suggest that I am the fool?

Philistine! I should have you flogged!

Then you ain't playing it enough. As simple as that.

 

[Gostak]

You like it this way, especially the "RPG games" part (I know I made that mistake in my first post here, lol).

 

[Hag]

"RPG games" could be simplified as RPGGs, which is more readable when talking about RPGG games.

 

[UndeadHalfOrc]

Game of Throne sucks, and has always sucked.

I hope you die horribly. And soon.

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

That fanny is that of a phat tranny you see in the future of all rpgs.

 

[Saldrone]

Half-Life level "On A Rail" was actually great
