Count Uvula posted:I was following the previous thread and I don't remember it ever being definitively established the PS3 version was better; I think the info in the OP is based on the reviews for the game and not the ever trustworthy goonpinions? It's based on IGN's review solely, which other reviews and streams have proven is incorrect.

Pikey posted:Also, is the difficulty curve in DD ala dark souls, where you learn the game a get better as a player to overcome enemies, or more like traditional jRPGs where you basically just have to grind for better stats before you can take on the big monsters? A mix of both really. Most monsters simply involve using the right tools and tactics (and I mean that closer to a DS way than most JRPGs) but you need to level to get the proper tools to combat some enemies. Basically, skill can win battles alone if you're really good but levelling makes them a bit easier though usually still a decent challenge. The easiest way to bring down an enemy is to know how to exploit its weakness. However, higher levels will also give you more tools to use in such exploitation.

Gestalt Intellect posted:How bad are the one-shots in general? Usually that sort of thing really pisses me off although I did trudge all the way through Demon's and Dark Souls falling off cliffs many times, but the frustration from one-shots mostly comes down to how quickly I can retry. Usually you get a good idea whether or not an enemy's dangerous when it kills a pawn on you. You can save anywhere outside of combat but you only have that one manual save slot

If you like daggers it's probably best to remain a strider. Ensnare, as mentioned before, is a plain awesome skill. Assassins do get their neat counter abilities though.

Aqua Hamster posted:No they're going to stay the same level, unless the person who has the pawn has played and leveled up. I believe you can save the pawn to use it later.

360 has a better frame rate but with screen tearing (alleviated by switching the console to 720p) PS3 has a less stable frame rate but no tearing PS3 has a mandatory 4.5gb install. 360 install is highly recommended though and clocks in around 6-8 gb. Communities seem quite active on both versions so get the game for whichever controller you prefer.

There's only one gold that I've found: Lose the race vs. Fournival's daughter. I forget where I found the bronze. It's in someone's home/shop.

Teeter posted:I switched it to a female mage (not 12, not sexy) and have seen a steady increase since then. I had my huge payout just like yours the other day but I think I rest at inns pretty often so they get spread out. I'm pretty excited to see what happens when I play again since it's been a few days. Lina is like this. The last few days her renting's dropped since I switched her to sorceress, but when she does get reviews they're usually positive (only losing stars in appearance since I've kept her with fairly standard looking robes rather than something goofy) EDIT: /\ You can buy items at the rift shop in the encampment to affect your pawn's personality.

Torabi posted:Hm, turns out guards in gran soren do not like it when you pick people up and throw them off rooftops. Had to bribe a guard to get out. Is there any other way to get out? Like in TES games where you just "do the time". I think I saw some skeleton key at the black cat guy as well but I doubt guards will like me very much if I escape. you can craft skeleton keys out of the pillocks (I forget the name the game uses, the medieval handcuffs) and another item. The needed parts can usually be found in the cell. If you sneak out, the guards won't care once you get out of the prison.
