I think I'm most of the way through the first island and I'm having a great time so far. I started having stuttering after ~2.5 hours of play, but restarting fixed it. For whatever reason, they decided to have companions start at your level with abilities chosen, rather than coming in at level 1 and letting you chose everything. I don't think respeccing is that expensive, but it's slightly annoying none-the-less. I ended up going back on everything I planned and making a Crusader. All of my defenses range from 55-70 at level 4, and I took both Determination and Divine Purpose to get an extra +20 defense vs. all afflictions. Time to focus on offense for a while. I'm using swords, but haven't decided between single wield, shield and dual wield yet... It'd feel a little wasteful to not dual wield for Flames of Devotion, but more crits is really nice with the devoted damage bonus. Also, turning up scroll speed in the "Game" tab is a must. The default value is painfully slow ugh.

Do Graze-to-Hit buffs stack in some way? For example, Eder's Disciplined Barrage + Confident Aim?

I'm going to go home from work soon and watch shows with girlfriend. Then she'll get sleepy and i'll be like "yesss!" and tuck her the gently caress in and then I'm off to the races with this new party based RPG from Obsidian. I am excited.

Anyone know how to configure the AI to stop trying to charm the last target in a fight? I've been toying with the conditionals for Target: Nearby Allies/Enemies, but nothing seems to be working.

Game really doesn't like the ability tree, I'm on a fairly new laptop with an SSD and the game runs perfectly any other time even in heavy combat but it freezes for 2 seconds any time I open the ability tree.

Surely enough Eder is Eothas Fan and not Da Mayor. At least I can treat this as test run to see for any tweaks when that's patched.

In the "build your own history" section, is there really nothing for "Zahua went back and united several small Ixamitl tribes"? e: And there IS a section for "I drove the Sky Dragon away?" What? I didn't know you could do that, I thought you had to kill it or let it stay. Ravenfood fucked around with this message at 22:45 on May 8, 2018 |

mem posted:Didn't notice the graphics hitching but I definitely get some kind of hitch in the music at times during dialogue. In a game with this much dialogue I fear for my sanity. I have this too, it doesn't seem to be reported on the Obsidian forums yet but I will make an account to post there tomorrow. I think I am going to hang back until a patch next week. Mainly because of non-mayor Eder which makes me super unsure about other bugs related to my imported save game.

Hmmm... It seems like Vela is missing, even though I did see the entirety of that quest through. And Edér joined the secret Eothas club, even though he became a mayor at the end of Pillars 1. Otherwise, it all looks and plays pretty drat neat so far, put I think I'll put it off until some of those carry over things are fixed.

Graphics are very pretty in this. And the whole movement/combat system feels smoother than Poe1 so far.

I'm really loving this so far. You can definitely tell that the writing has had more than one draft too. Its not just more intriguing, but its much funnier than I thought it would be. I'm getting some serious Alpha Protocol vibes from it actually, and I mean that in all the best possible ways.

Someone on the obsidian forums compared the writting to Divinity OS2 - hope they were exaggerating... Also decent amount of complains about voice acting, especially the voiced narration.

Having kept myself almost entirely in the dark on Deadfire during its development, I will join the chorus of praise. The writing is stronger (well, apart from the inability of Valians to start a sentence without exclaiming something), and the encounters/combat mechanics are pretty interesting, at least on veteran. My favorite was dropkicking a skeleton so hard it bounced off a wall and struck a trap which exploded half my party. rip eder

Is it just me or is the staff modal really good? +20 deflection vs melee weps seems really nice. My Thamaturge is using that plus Concelhaut's Staff a lot and doin well so far on potd. First area though and I expect to get rolled soon

Envious of people stuck on character creation.. I can't even decide on difficulty and level scaling. Can I change them later on if things get too easy/hard?

And just making sure that nothing changed since beta, but: Beguilers only have a downside if their target isn't debuffed or flanked, right? And since Ciphers easily get access to the "everything is now flanked forever" debuff at, like, level 3, in practice they have no downside? (Also not much of an upside besides some Focus refunding for stacking debuffs, but still)
