WarLocke posted:Yeah I know, he was probably a bad example to use. I just really like how Barbarian isn't "guy who runs at you with a big axe" and Wizard isn't "guy in a robe with a book" and you can actually kind of subvert those classes within the game system (at least, it sounds like it from what I've read so far).

Since some people are already playing, how is the party interaction ? Does your companions talk to each other ? Is there ambient banter (It was one of the things I liked about DA:I, that makes walking around maps a lot better) ?

It'll be interesting to see the documentary come out. If Adam Brennecke gets sick of developing video games he could always have a career as Joseph Gordon-Levitt's stunt-double.

rope kid posted:It was already in 2nd Ed., though if you ever read the 2nd Ed. Hall of Heroes supplement, Drizzt breaks about a dozen rules in how he's built/works. His stats made more sense in the 3E FR hardcover. Oh, I didn't know that. I don't think I knew anyone who even played Ranger in 2nd ed either so that could be it. Maybe cause everyone just wanted to Polymorph Other everything all the time.

I hope not all the PoE internet buzz is going to get drowned out by Bloodborne, can't imagine most people talking about much else than that game for at least a week.

PoE should have long legs since the game is so lengthy, similar to Divinity. People were still talking about that game for months just because it was so massive and word of mouth spread.

Do the classes still have different values for Melee and Ranged Accuracy or did they change that?

I wouldn't necessarily say that; while it's limited to the crowd with PS4s, I'd imagine there's a decent crossover between old-school RPG fans and D* Souls games, and pretty much all games are competing for space equally on aggregate sites like Reddit and poo poo. If a bunch of Bloodborne posts swarm the front-page/gaming subreddits and push PoE posts down that's probably quite a bit of lost buzz. Not that I think PoE will do BADLY, but still.

If I lived in a perfect world where I had infinite money, I'd pick up Bloodborne in a heartbeat. No console is worth it for just one game, though, so I think I'll postpone getting it for now.

Traditional western RPGs that are decent have a really long tail in terms of sales. Unless PoE is just a shitshow at launch somehow it'll do fine even if it doesn't set charts on fire this week.

It's the topseller on GOG and GMG and #4 on Steam, which is really good considering it isn't even out yet. So happy to see Obsidian doing well. Warms the cockles of my jaded gamer heart.

Eej posted:Honestly the only thing that Drizzt ever does that is Ranger-y is live out in the underground wilderness for a while. I'm pretty sure they added the dual wielding template for Rangers in 3.5e because of Drizzt's popularity. Yeah he's not really that Rangery apart from having Ranger training (the outdoors stuff). In PoE I'd say he's a Rogue with a poo poo-ton of mechanics and stealth skill. Drizzt is all about the dirty fighting, setting traps and laying ambushes. Fantasy Character class matching game! Aragorn - Fighter? Rogue? Paladin!? (he's got one hell of a fanatical cause going on)

He's sneaky, uses herbalism to heal people, is described as an excellent woodsman, and in the movies at least is handy with a bow. The AD&D Ranger class is essentially based on Aragorn, down to the fact that it requires you to be Good for no particularly logical reason. Maybe this is a joke that went over my head but I remember an old issue of Inquest that was statting the Fellowship as AD&D characters and they made Aragorn a Paladin instead of a Ranger and I was like "what why"
