While it's indeed better than the cartoony comic book look, it's still all wrong, too plastic, looks like a 1990s movie adaptation. I think that's even Val Kilmer on the bottom right.

When is this game coming out again? Do we have a date? Month? Year?

Owlcat told us to look at their past development schedule to predict when the game will be out. Since Kingmaker came out in 2018 and WOTR in 2021 it seems Sep 2024 is approximately when we can expect the game to be out.

Jesus christ look at those shit poverty graphics, how will you guys ever catch up with the greatness of Larian?!

Seems I will be king for a long, long time.
Actually BG3 has shit graphics because it zooms too much on character faces while graphics are not good enough for that. I rather have it like Owlcat does it.

I was just playing Shadowrun HK recently and there you get portrait and descriptions, I also prefer that to BG3 with that crazy zoom and terrible animations that show nothing.
Until they can get it close to RL better to do it like books do and leave the rest to our imagination. BG3 way just distracts. And bad VO does not help.

Can't hear you over BG3 being the best PC and crpg game of all time

Let me know when one of your favorite poverty indie crpg studios comes even close to this metascore.

So: Cope, seethe and dilate.

That sounds fine, until then I should have finished BG3 and need another big RPG to sink my teeth into

I hope they fix/add more psionic abilities that are actually powerful for the latent psykers, they're so boring right now. I don't want to play x-com where you just shoot people to death, I found myself just console killing enemies sometimes because melee with swords or shooting people is just not interesting to me. WOTR was super fun with all the higher power abilities they gave you, feels strange playing this one where you feel like some random shitter.

Awesome! That was my only concern about the game. Thanks.

Strap Yourselves In Codex Year of the Donut Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag. Pathfinder: Wrath I helped put crap in Monomyth


Woe to those who dare to incur the wrath of one of the most powerful organizations driven by unattainable ideals.
No one can hide from the punishing hand of the Inquisition, and even a high origin will not be able to bring you salvation during a righteous trial.

Men, how should we make an organization seem imposing and formidable?

Good idea man 1: A squad of crack troops at the ready.

Good idea man 2: EXTERMINATUS.

Good idea man 3: Show off the power and pomp of an inquisitor and their retinue.

Nobody: Let's show one of their statues surrounded by burning debris, implying they got their asses handed to them by demons, heretics or some such.
