Raygereio posted:They were though? I mean, if you wanted all companions as soon as possible you'd have to go out of your way to get to them. But if you followed the base game's & WM's main quests, you'd get to them all eventually. Pallegina being the exception. Grieving Mother and Pallegina were in optional side areas. Sagani and Hiravias were in zones that you had to go through, but they were wide open generic wilderness maps where you could easily miss them if you didn't scour the whole area. I could see people missing Zahua as well. Don't remember how you recruit Maneha since she is aggressively uninteresting.

Realized that my Bleak Walker play through had hit a bug where Hiravias was somehow killed before I could recruit him, his corpse laying forever on the ridge of Stormwall Gorge, taunting me. Hope that doesn’t affect too much in the sequel

They're both misseable if you don't explore the map completely.

Gotta stop watching this stream. I don't want to be spoiled on anything significant with the main story or side quests. Only 45 hours left. Also Obsidian should have added upgrades to higher editions on Steam. After watching the stream I want to shell out even more to them. The lighting in this game is really nice.

I maintain that pistol + weapon could easily end up being real strong. Most attacks in the game now are primary attacks, not full attacks, meaning they're better with a two hander (or one real good one hander). The dual weapon talent is still incredibly good. Pistol + weapon basically lets you combine these two - you'd be using one real good one hander and a pistol, meaning in melee you're swinging with dual weapon training speed, but only ever hitting with your one real good one hander. It's basically just trading single weapon training's accuracy for the speed. The pistol in its own weird way is almost incidental.

In Deadfire the new max level is 20 and max power level is 9. Is that reflective of the additional content in Deadfire, or was leveling tweaked to be a bit faster than in the first game? Edit: Also can someone explain how wizard grimoires have changed? Can we still learn spells from looted grimoires? Inverness fucked around with this message at 21:18 on May 6, 2018 |

They all have set spells now and you only know the spells ypu learn by level up so in a fight ypu can use whatever is in your equipped Grimoire and what you have from levelup. So theres actual incentive to switch them around in combat now.

I doubt Deadfire has 25% more content then P1 with the expansion, but also they've been stressing recently that it's a big game. The only concrete hours figure I've seen (not counting various synonyms for "vast") is the game director saying he'd been playing for 80 hours

The Devil choice wording really threw me off too; if you convince her not to kill the dude, she doesn't find acceptance and peace or whatever, it drives her mad. She dries screaming without feeling.
