obsidian has a lot of good will from its writing and treatment of politics in previous games. Really hope it sticks the landing with POE 2, but do we know if there are any non-white writers on staff?

Wizard Styles posted:Maybe, but then the Nalpazca is essentially balanced like the Vancian casters were in PoE1, except more annoying since you don't know how many drugs remain in the game. Overpowered when it counts and almost a nonentity when it doesn't. Josh said he's currently playing a Nalpazca monk, so at the least it's being looked at.

If I have gear that gives +25 vs charmed, prone, paralyzed or whatever, does everyone get that bonus when I cast defensive mindweb? Not that I'd use it for most encounters regardless. Using reaping knives on Zahua is ridiculous. Once I get enough focus to toss that out, the encounter is over since my cipher can just spam amplified wave every 3 seconds, forever.

I know that for the main defensive stats (deflection, etc.) you just take the highest value of anyone in the party, and apply that across the board. I'm not sure if it takes the special bonuses into account or not.

It was specifically the quest I left undone in my final playthrough so I don't have to redo anything, it's just 1) grab baby 2) replay Sun in Shadow but honestly the difference in ease-of-play just with the PoE 2 beta is so marked that it's a little annoying to play the old game, already In the first battle I didn't click anything because I was expecting the AI to take over Also the AI enhanced Smart Camera has already spoiled me Hieronymous Alloy fucked around with this message at 03:26 on Apr 12, 2018 |

Gonna go on a vacation a week before launch, won't be able to play it for over a month, by then there should be a ton of improvements and fixes to whatever problems pop up.

Not much new to see in that video, it's a dungeon in the desert with some xaurips, beetles and dank spores, showing off the extremely snazzy lighting. There was a bit I thought was cute though, mild spoilers in case you want to go in pristine: at the end of the dungeon the Steel Garotte, followers of Woedica, are meting out justice on some guy. As the party heads into the room, Aloth pipes up "need I remind you of what happened the last time we interrupted a trial..." Fittingly enough, the interaction with the Steel Garotte seemed to inescapably lead to a boss fight.

The neatest thing I saw was the bit about Xoti's lantern: apparently it like absorbs souls or something? Didn't quite catch all of it but it seems like it will be level-up-able?

I'm kind of wondering if you can avoid a fight depending on your ending of Pillars 1.

As far as I know all you need to know to jump in to the sequel is that you have your own castle with a giant green statue in the basement and you have the power to commune with the spirit world. Also the statue came to life and wrecked up your castle, so now you have your own boat instead. There's also some very classified information about the setting which only you and the Pillars 1 party members are privy to, and I'm kind of curious to see how the sequel deals with that.

Going into 2 without playing 1 seems pretty silly. They are extremely similar games. What's the point in starting halfway through?

Also, Eder loves animals (to the point where he'll risk injury to pet one) and he's a little racist. If you do pick up PoE1, I recommend a good Reshade (I liked this one a lot). The White March expansion is really good as well, like some of the best content in the game. Vargs posted:Going into 2 without playing 1 seems pretty silly. They are extremely similar games. What's the point in starting halfway through? I can see it since Deadfire looks to be a massive improvement over PoE1. That said, if a newcomer has the free time over the next month to play, there are definitely worse things to do.

I don't think I saw it specifically brought up but apparently they announced that some characters from Critical Role would be showing up in Deadfire as available portraits / voice sets for the PC and / or hired adventurers. It's set to drop as DLC on launch and apparently the CR fanbase is really turning out for it.

Has it been said how extensive the choices you can make without importing a save are in PoE 2? Like from ME2 where there's basically nothing to dragon age inquisition where basically every choice can be decided without import

Basically everything can be set by dialogue choices at the beginning of the game. There'll only be a few minor bits of reactivity you'll potentially miss out on if you don't import.

Wizard Styles posted:I don't think Pallegina and Aloth will be in my party at the end of the game. Aloth will depend on how exactly he feels about the gods and how big a role animancy plays in Deadfire. But I assume at some point Pallegina will decide that, exiled Kind Wayfarer or not, an open war against the Vailian Trading Company is maybe not her thing. What stat array would you recommend for a Nalpazca/berserker? I played a monk in the first game, but wound up building him in what felt like a weird, slow, tanky way. I've tried tooling around in the beta but generally end up with lots of 12s and 14s, since I don't really know how important the particular ability scores are and dont want to dump them too much. I just want to play a zippy monk that started doing drugs after the first game!
