Well, I just got myself 3 extra copies of the game on launchday, time to figure out who to give them to. Might do a giveaway in an appropriate thread, or just hand it out to good buds I have on Steam.

Hieronymous Alloy posted:Ok new debate: I'd probably just fill it with every character build I couldn't use as my main my first time through (which is still going to be a gun-centric cypher I think). I'd say a damage-soaking damage-aura paladin melee person, then a shotgun-toting Orlan rogue, maybe some kind of druid since I never got the hang of them in the beta proper.

Fair Bear Maiden posted:Even when Divinity: Original Sin's combat lost its sheen, I still think the designers did a good job at shuffling the game's elements and altering the pace and situations to keep it fresh (granted, Cyseal is my favorite location, so I wish they'd kept the badass hub for later and started with a smaller Act 2-like location, but that kind of criticism is easy to make in hindsight). Admittedly, I haven't finished the game because I got distracted with other stuff, but it certainly wasn't for lack of interest. Getting distracted with other stuff was the bane of my Divinity playthrough as well. There just came a point where I was bored with what was going on after leaving the first town and all its complex stuff to go hunt things in a mine someplace. Didn't help that the story sort of tapered out either. It was still a great game, and I am glad I got it, but I've no intention of finishing it.

Illegal Username posted:I've kept myself in the dark about this game and hey look it's coming out on Thursday! Absolutely. Worst case scenario, from watching streams and playing the Beta, you'll get a game that tries to evoke the old IE games with some cool new paint and new mechanics and better writing that doesn't quite go all the way. Best case this will be my GOTY. I'm leaning towards that one.

Why is everyone buying GTA 5 on Steam? It isn't coming out for another month, did they forget to update people on that? Or is there a pre-order bonus running out? Oh. There is. For money in the game. Star Citizen really has ruined us At least PoE is holding onto that 3rd spot. Cities Skylines deserves its spot at least.

Lunchmeat Larry posted:It's aged pretty badly but smacking someone in the nuts with a hammer so hard that he comically slides across the map never really gets old. It has some things I'd love to see in a new game, that being one of them, but like people already mentioned you can beat it in an afternoon and it feels mostly empty and lifeless. There's neat stuff to do, and awesome things to find, but there's also a whole bunch of grindy pointless crap. But not because the guys behind it weren't trying their darndest and there's tons of charm to be found. But Fallout 2 is the better game by far. And beyond having a certain lack of tone from 2, and a few things only isomectric can offer, New Vegas was the best of the bunch.

cheesetriangles posted:I'll end all of your suspension about this question right now. I'm not a smart man, which is obvious by my posting, but it didn't take me as long to figure out how to kill stuff good in PoE as some of these streamers. I'd say people aren't used to RTwP gameplay but we've got stuff like Inquisition and the original Dragon ages going on so that can't be right either.

Avalerion posted:If I understand this right, disengagement attacks just mean that if character A moves out of character B's danger zone, B gets to hit A with a free attack that hurts a lot? That seems pretty straightforward if so and helps tanks do their job. Sort of. Some characters are better about keeping you stuck in than others, but overall your explanation works.

Well, I'm free then at least. But I'll probably try and knock myself into a coma or something before then, to wake up at an appropriate time. Luckily my training from working in care means I can fall asleep at the drop of a hat. And then be a zombie for days on end

The DLC just finished downloading as I was playing. Do I have to restart from scratch to get my things/pet? Edit: Ah, no I don't, but I had to go to a slightly earlier save since my inventory had filled up.

Nelson Mandingo posted:Game is good, but how do you get to Caed Nua once you've done mostly everything? Do you really have to attack/infiltrate the hold to progress the story? I'm on hard and it's almost been 6 or so years since I've done an RPG like this. Real rough. I like it. If you mean Raedric's place, then no. Just get to an area connecting to that one, somewhat south of the village I think, and make your way there.

Damnit, 2 hard choices in a single area? Raedric's Hold is a real tough area to get through, and I'm not talking about the stealth section. What if they really can fix the problems? Is it ok to keep a tyrant around if he eventually solves his problems? Or is he just completely mad and needs to be put down?

Deakul posted:What a shame, but yeah, I'm seeing reports of people not getting the backer achievement for some reason. It is super weird. I just made a new character and got the achievement instantly this time. I think in my case it had something to do with the "dlc" that was the backer stuff not being downloaded when I first started the game, so it didn't register the cheevo. Also, Durance's vision quest thing has popped up and I somehow already had my conversation with him about it, but the questlog still shows me as needing to ask him about it. Sorta weird! Not sure if permanently bugged.

Kikka posted:I like PC RPG games. Tell me the pros/cons of this game! It has a lot of content. Been playing it since release day pretty much nonstop and the ending still isn't in sight, tho I am getting closer. It has several RP opportunities and ways to build your character that are all fun and neat. The music is good, as is the writing for the most part. It is still a bit unbalanced and the difficulty curve is not smooth in the least.

Autonomous Monster posted:So, does anyone know what the Fampyr on the throne on the 8th floor of Od Nua says if you can speak Engwithan. Literally went straight from there to finish Heritage Hill and am now feeling a tad foolish. He details a few things about how he's managed to survive there for so long and how things went with his old master. Also how he's being bothered by the beetles in that area, and he does NOT know who the Master Below is. He doesn't think it is his former boss though, being the guy who made that place.
