witcher 1 combat is bad but they made it worse in 2 since they tried to like make a real action rpg type thing isntead of the bizarro rpg rhythm game in witcher 1

I beat the entirety of witcher 1 with all sidequests in 2009 while i was addicted to methadone and stealing electricity from my landlord and I honestly have no idea how that rhhyythm poo poo or the stances even worked. I think I just brute forced quicksaves until I won

iirc it also doesn't have additional optional super bosses which are ALWAYS bad. the game boy color version is the same version (aside from the graphics of course) if someone has a real hankering to play on a gbc also. amazing thank you enix

yeah wtf those were worth bank when I sold my collection to the vintage store

they both came out pretty late in the nes life and 4 (and maybe 3?) were released after the snes was out and probably only had small print runs or something. and enix's usa presence was really small compared to square.

ths is the same reason i'll probably never play bg2 again, i love the game but the enhanced edition seems like hot wet bullshit and spending three hours modding it to get the ui and text boxes and stuff fixed just blows

You can modify the combat to nit be based on psycjo ad&d rules in bg2 enhanced and turn off the (sort of) permadeath spells like imprison. And then you're free to revel in the worst part of any given bioware and or black isle game: 300 hours of atrocious writing!

i played that game as was intended, putting all my stats into wisdom and intelligence and sleeping through the combat with overpowered late game dnd spells

Its not so much that the combat ia difficult in pst So much as it is bad u know. You can tell its basically an afterthought since the nameless one can power thru everyone solo almost even as a thief thanks to the tats and his weird skills. Plus the skull being able to do stuff like use his irresistable paralysis powers even on liches and poo poo. Bit its just not fun fuu

Yeah. I struggle to think of any hollywood stars who enhanced a game with their appearance. I think it's one of the few good things about GTA is that they never use big stars for the main roles.

without wizardry and ultima becoming massive hits in mjapan we would have persona5 royale where you tell ann it couldn't be helped that she was raped and ryuji saying all gays must be killed. makes you think.

I’m liking it but is it normal for my guys to get their cheeks clapped all the time? I feel really weak and I’m reloading my save whenever I lose a guy but I’m not sure if that’s what I’m supposed to be doing. I love making the maps a lot.

normal encounters can be pretty hard and bosses are hard. foes you're usually supposed to run away from or dodge. bye
