MY HOTEL'S AS CLEAN AS AN ELVEN ARSE
Give ME Jaheira wife!
Das rayciss.
Heya! It's me, Imoen!
Imoen IS a CUTE sister user! (She is! She is!)
tfw
Speaking of her, does she only get that "learning magic over your shoulder" thing while she stays a Thief? Would make sense to continue if she's a lover level Mage.
Yes, it's a mod.
She is also cute romance character
No! Imoen IS sister user she is NOT wife user!
Aerie IS a CUTE mommy wife user BUT it WOULD be better IF she WAS Charname's mommy NOT Charname's son's mommy user!
So sayeth the wise Alaundo...
then explain to me why I FUCKED HER user. VERY AGRESSIVELY
Why would anyone pick these annoying sluts over pic related
No, I'll never let my cute sister go. Even if I have to marry her to keep her.
What!
Viconia IS a CUTE mommy wife user BUT her ending IS bad user it IS almost AS bad AS Deadfire poop endings user BUT user DID say she DOES have a BETTER ending IN mod user BUT I do NOT use THAT mod user! (Do not! Do not!)
>BUT her ending IS bad
No it's not, it's pretty based.
what's with the shitty fan portrait alterations here?
No!
I hate how it is always broken in BGT. In an earlier setup, with older mod versions it played but either the first two lines were switched or played at the same time, don't remember which. In a recent install it just doesn't play at all.
Also Firebead's Protection from Evil is a standard spell so it lasts like 2 rounds now.
Waifufag autism. Careful, it might be contagious.
When are they going to bring back the big world setup?
Alternatively what are the must have mods for a full trilogy playthrough?
>When are they going to bring back the big world setup?
Never. For some reason (read: most likely beamnigs doing something, same as they forced the originals out of all stores) it was abandoned so now you'll need to do everything by hand. There is supposedly an alternative being made but it's primarily oriented towards enriched editions so I have very little hope.
God I hate beamcuck
Hé, c'est moi Imoen...
>Alternatively what are the must have mods for a full trilogy playthrough?
Ascension, obviously. Other than that it's hard to say, depends on what you like.
You probably want BG2 Fixpack and other similar mods (those that fix various bugs and obvious errors).
Also anything by Weimer have been at least decent so far. Unless I'm forgetting something.
Either way, I've used BWS recently and while I had to change file names and sizes in the config files a lot and restart the installation from scratch two times, everything worked out well in the end.
I'm a degenerate that's never played these games before and just got the definitive editions. What am I in for? It's based on 3.5 dnd rules right? Any party members to definitely get? I kinda want to play a paladin
Quoi!
>I'm a degenerate
>I kinda want to play a paladin
Give ME degenerate paladin wife!
What is this, Neverwinter Nights?
user DID post Sara sister FROM Mass Effect Andromeda user BUT I DID post Mischa wife FROM Shadows of Undrentide user! (I did! I did!)
I like this portrait
It IS a CUTE mommy portrait user!
what the ruck is wrong with you
What!
>what the ruck is wrong with you
sorry, typo, my bad
what the fuck is wrong with you?
This thread is fucking cringe.
He's been banned multiple times because he's retarded.
Ignore.
Kingmaker
>Valerie is a disgusting, filthy whore that spreads lies, disease and general degeneracy. SHE does! She DOES!
So this is how fans of western RPGs act. Pathetic.
Not even my fellow weebs are like this.
No!
>definitive editions
LOL
>It's based on 3.5 dnd rules right?
No. 2nd edition for BG1 and essentially a homebrew formed off 2nd ed, colloquially referred to as "2.5ed" for BG2.
>Any party members to definitely get?
Why are you asking someone else how to play a single-player, story-driven game?
>I kinda want to play a paladin
By all means. The only problem lore-wise is that in the very beginning of BG1 Paladins would've been forced to die or become Fallen, but Black Isle decided to ignore that.
based. farmer's wife on thot watch
>in the very beginning of BG1 Paladins would've been forced to die or become Fallen
u wot
J'ai dégusté son foie avec un verre chianti, et quelques fèves...
Gorion tells you to flee as he's facing those guys, fucking dies while you're still supposed to at least hear that. If turning your back on your adoptive father as he is clearly in grave danger not grounds enough for a long Atonement quest I don't know what is.
I think hes talking about when you run away from sarevok as he kills gorion. But, if that's the case he's wrong. That would simply viewed as not maintaining honor, which doesn't cause a paladin to fall but rather it's simply an experience penalty. For a paladin to become fallen he has to willfully perform an evil act.
You want Darkness?
Dude, spoiler your shit. There's one user who is about to play the games for the first time several posts above.
>being ordered to escape by your adoptive father
>this is abandoning your adoptive father, you should let him die in vain rather than obey him and let him save you
>and this should be a serious evil action that makes you fall as a paladin
k
It's the first five fucking minutes in a 25 year old game. Don't be so autistic.
Why is the child of an evil god ably to be one in the first place?
Which god would want that?I mean sure they kill their siblings but they still have evil powers.
>listening to your sage dad is somehow an evil action that makes you fall as a paladin
yeah nah
Give ME Darkness wife!
I would like to see a mod that takes the AD&D rules literally when it comes to paladins though.
>Can't ever have more than 10 magical items
>Refusal to use any weapon that keeps them even 1 space away from an opponent until level 20 (no two handed swords, crossbows, quarterstaffs)
>Immediately donates at least 10% of all wealth to charities
First two are beyond retarded
Why?
>sister
Half-sister and she doesn't know it yet.
Troubleshooting bugs in these games is so fucking hard. At least it's possible I guess.
I just had a bug where Saemon wouldn't talk to me after getting to Brynnlaw, to initiate the vampire ambush.
Had to set the game to Chapter 3, console my way back to Aran's place, and do the whole cutscene over.
>Can't ever have more than 10 magical items
Lolwhy?
Wait, that's after Spellhold. Eh, they weren't raised as siblings either way. Gorion only suspected IIRC.
KINO.
Didn't say they were great rules. But it would make for an interesting playthrough. When you've done every fucking build available I'd gladly take bizarre rules just for a fresh experience. It would also be nice just to have an autisticly accurate representation of the AD&D classes.
>It makes me happy. It makes you happy. I don't see your point, Imoen.
Based.
Basically it's a humility thing. It's similar to how a priest can be absolutely rich yet they dress in simple robes to be humble. Paladins aren't allowed to show off wealth.
*record scratch*
*freeze frame*
That dorky Paladin? Yupp, that's me.
You're probably wondering how I got into this situation.
It all started when I accept this quest from Lord Firkraag...
Are those jarring faggy circles from a mod or EE?
You don't even have 10 equipment slots in BG2 so this rule wouldn't actually do anything except you would have to carry mundane items in your inventory bag.
This would be funnier if I didn't know that the room immediately before that one is about a million times more difficult.
EE gives you the option of making your party's Feedback indicators their default armor color.
In the PnP it doesn't apply to what you are wearing, but what you own. So even things you're just lugging around in a backpack count against the number allowed. The best part is that potions are magical.
Should not have made them double circles and even more uneven than the originals, then. Real eyesore.
I forgot about this place
>ywn have awkward guilty incest with Imoen
Feels awful, man.
I'm playing through the Imoen Romance mod for the first time right now. The Shadows of Amn part is spent trying to persuade her doubts concerning the incest thing and all.
And Throne of Baal's part is just straight up having sex whenever the possibility arises, including during the siege of Saradush. Where people are literally dying around us. And catapult rocks crashing down into nearby buildings. Jesus Imoen is cock hungry for big brother dick.
And before you say "nu-uh they're just half-siblings!" - the mod goes into great detail about how it's really still "just incest and it's yucky" etc. until neither of you give a shit and just give into undying love, siblings or not. In fact, there's a few dialog options that even go like "I know this is incest but that just makes it so much more enticing..." - which I didn't take because I didn't wanna scare her off and accidently break the romance story.
>guilty
Hahaha no. We're way past that, she fucking loves it.
Cause they have nothing to do with being a holy knight
Oh and apparently there's a magic contraception spell.
>Coathanger+1
...
>Hrmph heh?
What kind of sound is that supposed to be?
>Refusal to use any weapon that keeps them even 1 space away from an opponent until level 20 (no two handed swords, crossbows, quarterstaffs)
That's not part of the AD&D player's handbook.
Also there are even more rules and restrictions.
>Can't ever have more than 10 magical items
>Also can only have 1 magic suit of armor, 1 magic shield, and 4 magic weapons
>Immediately donates at least 10% of all wealth to charities
>Note that this is immediate, like as soon as he is allocated it as a share he must send 10% away
>Also on top of this if the paladin is the leader of the party then in theory your whole party can only really keep enough treasure to be supported in a modest manner and be paid reasonable rates. Any unexpectedly big gains have to be donated to the church or another worthy cause.
>Paladin may only employ lawful good henchmen and followers. Characters of other alignments must behave themselves or the paladin cannot cooperate with them. Say goodbye to those obviously evil party members.
>Thieves can be tolerated if they are not evil and sincerely trying to reform and stealth IF it's a for a good cause can be used as a LAST resort. Hey you know your sister who's a thief...?
>Get mind controlled by magic and attack a party member? Instantly lose your paladin status and can only atone with a dangerous quest or important mission (also you gain no xp while on this mission).
Being a paladin in AD&D is such a fucking trap. They were so concerned with making sure your character has to live up to being a paladin to play one that they strangle you with red tape and restrictions. It's so bad it's one of the most common memes in the game that paladins suck and you are going to get fucking wrecked for even trying to play one. You need a DM who takes pity on you for playing this on top of it requiring 17 motherfucking charisma.
>using the non-smooth shadows
What is this, 1999?
Actual disdain for plebs, obviously.
It's part of the reason they're so often called lawful stupid. So restrictive that you may as well not even be roleplaying, as you either act exactly in a specific way or you're fucked.
That said though, I've had some fun PnP adventures with paladins back in the day, it just really requires a certain questions for them to really work. The typical "murder hobos" and random questing approach doesn't really work with them.
*Quest line. Not questions.
The room before that was just a bunch of goblins and orcs and one single rakshasha or whatever the fuck they're called. It really wasn't that bad.
Good thing you can always hand that over to your thief.
Lawful Good gods powertripping on Evil by cucking their progeny away from them into the ways of good.
Thank Gygax for having a huge arthurian legends boner.
About the Imoen mod. Don't you need to make an account on some dead forum to get it?
I guess it's level-dependent.
For me, it was a dozen Orogs as soon as I walked in, with a dozen more Vampiric Mists joining in from the west that never stop spawning, a pod of Hobgoblin Shaman to the immediate north, that kite back to the Rakshasa, who had 2-4 Kamikaze Kobolds.
Walk in, all my dudes get level drained, Rakshasa starts casting, lose at least one person to the Kobolds. Try to rest outside after using Restoration, come back in and all the Hobgoblins and Vampiric Mists are back, get level drained, retreat, rest, repeat.
Shit was awful.
Nah, that's the old version of the mod that also had rape
If you retreat after getting level drained by some vampiric mists and then go back in without negative plane protection you only have yourself to blame. But, yes, that area is much more difficult than the handful of orc archers behind illusory walls.
>Do you know the monster you would create together?
Oh, I dunno. Another Bhaalspawn? How utterly horrifying.
I'm not into that anyway, so where do I get the new version?
Like my Lawful Evil Bhaalspawn gives a fuck about that.
NPP didn't last long enough for my Fighter to even kill enough of the Mists to get by. Getting level drained was inevitable until I just said fuck it and crept by hugging the east wall.
I just googled imoen mod and it took me to the team's site.
On the off chance they obtain the power of their father and the god gets a free buddy / sub-servant god to help them out
Imagine having that on your resume as a programmer
>So user, I see you have some experience with finishing a project in the form of a mod.
>Yes, I do.
>Can you tell me about it?
>It lets you fuck your sister.
I've heard you need to be quick to rescue her from Spellhold? How quick are we talking?
Half-sister and it barely even counts because it's from an evil god, jeez!
Beamdog is a guilty of a number of different crimes. Here are the major ones.
1. The Enhanced Editions are essentially a collection of free mods that had existed for nearly twenty years. Beamdog gathered them all up, slapped "Enhanced Edition" on it and resold it as a new product. There's very very little in the Enhanced Editions that wasn't already out there, and most of it is stuff you don't want (like obnoxious character outlines).
2. The games didn't sell so well and the originals were still far outselling them, even twenty years after their release, so Beamdog had EVERY digital distributor stop selling the originals and ONLY sell the Enhanced Edition. If you want to buy a digital copy of the originals now, they're "bundled" into the Enhanced Edition. Now these scumbags can claim sales from people just wanting to buy the originals as their own.
3. The infamous 600+ bugs on launch. The game is still riddled with bugs (as even a perfunctory glance over their forums show) but the fact that it took nearly two years for them to get a game that had been working fine for 20 years to reach playability after launch is telling of their wild incompetence.
4. This is where we get to the ones that really piss people off. Beamdog couldn't just remaster the game, they had to fuck with the content too. New dialogue for existing NPCs like Jaheira, Viconia, Safana, Kivan, et cetera was written in to make the characters more progressive and leftist friendly. Beamdog shills will argue that "adding content isn't changing content XDDD" but it is when the new content changes the core personalities of the existing characters. This is in addition to adding a slew of their own LGBT (hitherto there were none in Baldur's Gate) NPCs, all flooded with OP attributes and magic items to encourage people to play them despite their cancer.
5. Siege of motherfucking Dragonspear.
>it expanded the existing dialogue with your sister significantly
not that hard. It's not like your interviewer is going to install BG2, play it, then install the mod and compare all the dialogue.
Way to take a joke far too seriously.
I am fun at parties
>slap cheek
>lips bleed
?
The gay orc was good because orcs are hot.
Mostly agree with everything else though
BG1 isn't even fun to me anymore. Only BG2 is.
This mod was written by a woman, btw.
low level d&d is never fun
Opposite for me. It's fucking weird
A-at least we got the gay and lesbian romance quota up... t-that counts for something... right?
>Baldur's Gate 3 from a studio who clearly gives a shit and has a good record
Feels good.
BG1 is a neat game for it's time but yeah it's pretty boring. BG2 on the otherhand is literally peak Bioware.
Larian's writing isn't that great though.
Same. The power creep becomes so broken halfway through BG2 that I feel a need to nerf myself just to enjoy it. Whereas BG1 keeps you struggling the whole way through, short of some broken shit like polymorphing.
Oh boy here come the retards, go ahead and get the stupid pillars v divinity "war" started faggot.
I didn't even mention pillars you strawmanning retard.
Larian makes fine games but their writing is subpar, especially compared to games like BG2.
Is Neera one of those "mods" by any chance? Because I had her in my party once and realized that she was fucking annoying as hell. Both the voice actress but also the way she talked. She talks like a Californian teenager would, they tried shoehorning in some BG2-esque old English vocabulary, but it's so painfully obvious this was written by someone who wasn't involved in the original development of the game. She also felt a bit Mary Sue-ish, and I actually had to drop her from my party because she pissed me off.
What exactly happens if two demigods have a child? Does it produce another demigod?
sticks out like a sore thumb don't it
t. woman hater.
Don't get me wrong, Wizards of the Coast have had some collosal fuck ups, but I think the whole reason BG3 took so long to get rolling is because Wizards knows full well how much backlash they'll receive if they fuck it up. So, I'm quite certain that Larian isn't going to do most of the writing and will have that mostly controlled by the official DnD team at Wizards.
Who knows, though, it could turn out shit. But I don't think Wizards is that retarded.
Give ME Chie wife!
Not true. I love women, and women love me.
Depicted: Me at Vampire Central, getting the "suck and fuck" if you know what I mean
What! Are YOU another wife scholar user! (Are you! Are you!)
>love women, and women love me.
>no Bodhi romance mod
>no option to make her team up with you and fight Irenicus
Leaving Keldorn to get gangraped when you could just have a cleric turn undead is peak blasphemy.
I'm installing Baldurs Gate 1/2 EE right now, and i'll be playing for the first time.
Can you play as a paladin, and if so what should I know or do before playing?
>Can you play as a paladin
Yes
>and if so what should I know or do before playing?
Make sure your stats aren't shit cause you'll be fighting most of the time.
I was overleveled for this fight and chunked 90% of the vampires instantly with turn undead.
Good times.
Formerly: Amn
What! She IS cute!
Don't worry about min-maxing. Get STR/CON/DEX up to max (18).
Also keep in mind the game's old a shit, and the rules are based on an old Pen-and-paper RPG so don't worry if half the shit doesn't make sense to you. A lot of the rules don't necessarily translate well into a computer game medium.
>European city aesthetics with Egyptian themed underground catacombs
This was always kinda weird to me.
Why do zoomers have such a hard time understanding THAC0 and having multiple saving throws? The shit was literally designed so that a 10 year could understand it in the 80s, yet this is almost always brought up as some impossible to comprehend ancient language today.
this game worth playing in 2019 if you’ve never tried it? I enjoy true rpg’s
Because you aren't playing with dice. For someone who has never touched the pen-and-paper DnD, it's hard to comprehend why some stats work the way they do. Not to mention, the infinity engine games do a poor job at communicating mechanics to players anyway (AC and DR, or "Save vs." stats for example).
They get hungry whent hey read THAC0 and then their mind wanders off
bg2 is, literally played and beat it for the first time a month ago; tried playing bg1 like four times and just never got into it, one time made it as far as baldur's gate the city and just gave up, it's boring
:^)
What! Do NOT worry user it IS simple user it IS okay user! (It is! It is!)

Level drain is the single worst thing in BG, right after the "Maze" spell.
Thank YOU user! You ARE a GOOD user!
BG series is the least interesting of the old school CRPGs, Fallout 1 and 2, Planescape, and Arcanum are all better, so play those first if you haven't
Speaking of modding, I was interested getting into modding myself so I looked all over the internet what I'd need to get started, but turns out LITERALLY ALL links to modding tool sites are dead and 404'd a few years ago and even then I haven't found a single tutorial on how to make maps/scripts/anything. The only thing of note was youtube videos on how to install mods, not actually create them. RIP.
What! Do YOU have cleric wife OR druid wife user! Do NOT worry user IF you DO have cleric wife OR druid wife you CAN use Negative Plane Protection user it IS okay user! (It is! It is!)
I never romanced Viconia.
Without spoiling in... is she worth it?
Even if they have never played a PnP RPG before, they have access to a manual which fully explains all the mechanics and how it's based on a d20 system. Yet, I don't think I've ever seen a thread or video on BG where someone doesn't bring up how difficult it is to understand the rules.
They're either:
A: lazy as absolute fuck and can't be bothered to spend 20 mins reading the fundamentals in a manual for a game series that can easily take over 100 hours to complete
B: actually retarded and can't comprehend something designed for children to be able to understand.
I am male!
Use garlic or drop some seeds on the ground, they'll be up all night counting that shit.
Thank YOU user! You ARE a GOOD user! Viconia IS a CUTE mommy wife user she IS worth it user BUT her ending IS bad user SO you SHOULD use mod FOR better ending user BUT I do NOT use mod user SO you SHOULD find mod user IF possible! (You should! You should!)
>respecting the heroic sacrifice of your dad is evil
What's up with you?
>2019
>manuals
I AM up WITH wife user! (I am! I am!)
thanks user, I loved fallout 1 and 2 I’ll check those out
that’s what I was afraid of
Exactly, zoomers have the tool to prevent ignorance and instead choose ignorance.
Can I romance you?
I am male!
I saw the logo of some woman with 2 faces from Baldurs Gate 2 and it got me interested, what are the games like?
How clean is an elven anus? Can you eat off of it?
It's ok, Beamdog officially permitted LGBT romances.
You'll have to be the bottom, though.
They ARE all CUTE games user AND they DO have CUTE wifes user! Do NOT worry user they ARE old user BUT they ARE fun TO play FOR wifes user! Do YOU like mommy wifes user! (Do you! Do you!)
Remember how bad hold person was though? In BG1 if you're affected by hold person your armor class becomes hot garbage. It doesn't matter if you're wearing full plate armor and it's highly magical. Your awesome armor is basically intangible during that spell, even unintelligent enemies will just tear through you and your armor like it's made of paper, even if your allies attack them.
Stop giving it attention.
How the fuck do you manage to play, even this screenshot is flickering.
real time pausable combat, every 5 seconds characters get to perform an action, lots of cliche fantasy dialogue, barely any choices to make, slaughter rats in a basement, collect wolf pelts
He talks like a Skaven, what the fuck?
Wut's there to explain brudder?
I am NOT gay user BUT gay IS okay user BUT I am NOT gay user SO I CANNOT be romanced BY male user BUT if you DO want male wife I CAN give YOU male wife IF possible user! Here IS a CUTE male wife user!
Does that cool image on the cover have anything to do with the actual game? That's about %100 of my reason for playing, because the only other thing I know is that it's a game using the DnD engine.
I remember playing Neverwinter Nights ages ago and I despised it because it rolled a dice to hit
For me, it's Cherry Torn.
Old school crpgs, steeped in DnD lore as a backdrop and featuring The most epic questline ever put into a videogame. Where you watch your character slowly but surely progress from a weak child to a literal god and are in absolute control the entire time.
I have no idea what the woman is supposed to represent, maybe she's the official logo of the city of amn or whatever, maybe it's the duality of elves
>I'm not gay
>but this guy is CUTE!
You're making me horny you retarded and confused faggot.
What! You should NOT wife sister user BUT you CAN wife Imoen IF you are NOT Charname user BUT the ONLY other game I DO know WITH Imoen IS A Dance with Spies user BUT I do NOT wife A Dance with Spies Imoen user BECAUSE she DOES have sex WITH others user AND sex WITH others BEFORE wife IS okay user BUT sex WITH others DURING wife is NOT okay FOR me user! (Is not! Is not!)
I think they were the Planars from ToB (Solar and... well, the dark Planar). Maybe they were supposed to be in the BG2 base game but got cut for whatever reason, but they thought the logo looked cool.
Such a silly picture, the penis always wins. It's not even a question, it doesn't matter what you are male, female, straight lesbiean, the penis ALWAYS wins, and ALWAYS will. Just gotta find the right thing to attach it too, and it will win, it's the ultimate weapon.
Neither is Baldur's Gate 1 and 2 in that regard.
It made sense though. Hold person literally paralyzes you. Even dumb as fuck animals know to go weak spots on prey, I.E. the throat. If you're just frozen in place it wouldn't matter how sturdy your armor is, anything could just walk up and slip a blade between a joint.
The CUTE wifes ON image are NOT in game user BUT there ARE many CUTE wifes IN game user AND they ARE all mommy wifes user! Baldur's Gate DOES roll dice TO hit user SO you might NOT like it user BUT you MIGHT like NEW Baldur's Gate 3 user WHEN it DOES come out user IF Larian does NOT roll dice user AND Larian DOES have CUTE wifes too user!
>mage/cleric gets level drained
>have to re-memorize all the spells they had

Lost yer sense of humor, have ye? I've heard what ye've been telling all yer little friends, that ol' Winthrop has a hankerin' fer a little elven arse every now and then! Heh, come here, my pretty, and I'll soon change yer mind...
Why do BG threads attract so much disgusting autism? First the beamdog fag, now the HURR DURR MOMMY WIFE fag.
Fallout and Planescape threads never have this problem.
Must be because Bioware attracts autists.
Thank YOU user! You ARE a GOOD user! She IS cute user! (She is! She is!)
Annah IS a CUTE Planescape wife user!
Who was best girl?
this is wrong. disobeying your father and dying in a foolish way is not good
>dude I love Baldur's Gate so much dude
>Pathfinder Kingmaker? that game that comes closer to the BG experience than any other RPG? dude that shit had a buggy launch lmao no thanks
>ugh why are cRPGs so dead bros
What! Valerie IS the CUTEST wife user! (She is! She is!)
See, this is why I want to play BG1 some day, there's just so many fucking characters that are constantly referenced that I don't know.
>walk up to a dude
>"Hey... aren't you dead?"
I feel so out of the loop.
you have the option to add your own answer if you want, I just included all of the companions
"Shadows" of Amn. As in multiple. It's representative of the paths one can take in the form of a traditional Yin/Yang symbol. But it's open to interpretation as Bioware never came out and stated what it represented.
I'm glad I played kingmaker only after all the bugs had been fixed. Shit was great.
Goat sisters are ten times better.
some are featured in bg1 but are originally from books (drizzt), there is no escape from feeling like you're missing something
Thank YOU user! You ARE a GOOD user!
Even my grandma knows who Drizzt is.
your grandma is literally old enough for forgotten realms books
BG2 was okay. Pathfinder kingmaker was just horrible all of the NPCs deserve the rope. Octavia and Reg are just scum and should be euthanized.
Make it again and remove the non canon Memedog characters.
The tieflings ARE cute user BUT I DO prefer Valerie user! (I do! I do!)
>Feminine jaw and flared ears
Please tell me you're not comparing Anomen to a literal soiboy
You think it's a zoomer thing?
No one voted for them anyways. I just pulled all the companions off the wiki.
Valerie IS an ANNOYING lawful stupid CUNT though! (She is! She is!)
Drizzt DOES have CUTE sisters user BUT he CANNOT wife HIS sisters user BUT I am NOT Drizzt user SO I CAN wife Drizzt's sisters AND mommy anons! (I can! I can!)
Oh please, tell us about your favorite cRPGs if you think BG2 was just "okay".
No!
The mental patient is still here I see
Anomen IS a söy, he's just also a tryhard.
Nok-Nok, Harrim and Linzi are great. Octavia and Reg are just really disgusting with their constant obsession with sex.
>217 posts
>44 posters
He is! he is!
Fuck I think I caught whatever he has
Because fuck people enjoying themselves and discussing shit, right?
NWN1
Linzi is good but she steals from you and it is never acknowledged.
I mean at least give us the option of letting her suck for forgiveness.
GO FOR THE EYES BOO
>NWN1
>better than BG2
Fuck off lmao.
>NWN1
Lol.
It's pretty much universally agreed that NWN1 campaign is complete dogshit. Fucking contrarians.
See
Eventually you need to come to terms with how much of a disgusting whore Valerie is. I think the mothers of the women in "two girls one cup" are more proud, and have more reason to be proud, than Valerie's mother. She is truly the most degenerate of whores. The type of woman that would sit through an 8 hour bukkake session if promised an animal cracker in return.
I had aggressive procreative sex with my blood relative sister several times and got her pregnant and produced a Bhaalspawn child with her and there is nothing you can do to stop me because the act is already done.
Leave wife scholar user alone, he ain't hurting nobody
So I just installed the mod and at which point does the romance stuff start? Currently still in Irenicus dungeon and as of now I only get standart dialogue.
No!
I've played through it like 5 times and again on my mobile phone.
On the PC I have the game speedhacked at 1.5x speed though.

That doesnt make sense. If it is about appearing humble, then stuff in a bag doesnt count
Dorn > Hexxat > Rasaad > Neera
Your explanation is full of holes and falls apart upon questioning it. Wild animals even more intelligent ones sometimes attack people where they're more armored and protected. I have literally seen it happen, you're somehow ignorant of this. There are also even less intelligent creatures than these that would be more likely to make that mistake. Your example of going for a weak spot, the throat, is one that's covered in full plate armor. So making this called shot which is normal and instinctual for a wolf to try would likely fail. On top of which a called shot has a chance to miss especially under time constraints and while being under attack by multiple people with lethal weapons. A person could indeed coldly murder you while you're paralyzed, but even they would not necessarily get to automatically do so when they're being attacked and flanked by multiple dangerous allies of yours who are trying to stop them.
This isn't even a hypothetical. I had this happen in Baldur's Gate. An unintelligent as fuck creature butchered my protagonist fighter through his full plate armor while my allies desperately fought it to protect me to no effect.
What is this?

>Your explanation is full of holes and falls apart upon questioning it.
Everyone look at this guy lmao.
It's not about appearing humble, but being humble. A paladins abilities come from belief. He can't just tuck away some shit and think "ah-hah!" "I've found a loophole!" And be good. If he knows he's cheating, he's cheating.
Thank YOU user! You ARE a GOOD user!

He hurts me when I read his posts.
Nothing, just mandalas.
That's you choosing to be hurt, user. All he brings is positivity
>A paladins abilities come from belief
Yeah well my paladin believes in property laws
Give ME mandala wife!
Usually by the time you alreday have a full plate either there are no unintellingent creatures that will pose you a threat, or they are pretty fucking dangerous.
Yee, everyone should be a one-and-done shitposter. Blue Yea Forums all the way, bby.
You do realize that it's a game system and can't nor should it try to reconcile real world scenarios, right? A spell that makes you paralyzed resulting in you being far easier to hit is as good as it gets unless you're an actual autist.

I dropped them somewhere around the troll king encounter, fucking degenerates what the fuck. Does it get better with them or something? I do like some of Regs jokes and Octavia is still a cutie but they literally do not stop making comments about fat cocks.
Thank you, good music.

You SHOULD romance Valerie user! (You should! You should!)
I only remember one or two convos vaguely resembling that, then they shut up about it.
Was anyone else shocked when Aerie announced her pregnancy?
I feel like that's a pretty major event for the world considering the child will be 1/4th murder god.
You ARE welcome user! You ARE a GOOD user! Do NOT worry user I DO have mandala wifes IN collection user! (I do! I do!)
Dude what, they never shut up about it. At camp Reg talks about nothing but sex with barbarian women, Octavia gets an orgasm every time she sees torture equipment and at home both try to fuck me while laughing like retards.
What's the most kino party in both games?
All I know is that Edwin is a must as he is by far the best mage.
She's whatever I say she is.
What!
I was shocked because I thought I'm playing a good cRPG and not a shitty romance novel for teenage girls.
maybe because I only had octavia in my active party then?
Edwin, Minsc, Viconia, Jaheira and Imoen are probably the most iconic.
Really? I can't recall any conversation when they aren't behaving like invader zim tier xD randum fuckwits.
Naw the amount of raw dogging the bhallspawn was doing to her didn't leave anything to the imagination. But probably not good for an adventuring party.
I prefer Linzi.
>octavia in my active party
Disgusting she's a wizard with a permanent wizard sleeve.
Bar minimum Imoen, Minsc, Edwin.
That could be it, so far it seems that Octavia doesn't even like Reg, she's just hungry for cock.

What a fucking surprise.
Edwin is only good for min maxers that aren't playing a mage themselves. Otherwise he's an angst filled teenager that's the DnD equivalent of an Emo. That's the entirety of his personality. If you enjoy that, please KYS.
There are unintelligent creatures that pose threats to even experienced and well equipped adventurers. Even in a game with a more limited bestiary than normal D&D there are creatures like this.
It happened twice as I can remember. They were lucky flukes by pretty trashy creatures, a ghast, and a carrion crawler. They can potentially paralyze you on hit. They weren't dangerous to me, except if they immediately got a lucky hit and there was a failed save. The carrion crawler was especially annoying. It was all by itself, all my allies were attacking it and this creature was trash that I had beaten many times before.
Oh COME ON its on the Bhaal-side right? That barely counts, you're not exactly fucking worried about recessive "god" genes are you?
NOW LET ME MURDER DAT PUSS
You're only worrying about the divine side, I'm more concerned about the concentrated munchkinery that's going to be involved in the child of two PC-controlled characters built from level 1.
This thing's going to be a fucking Druid/Cleric demon or something.

>Tfw a multiclass fighter/mage with 3 Str and 3 Int
>you realize it's a game and won't account for too many things
It's still pretty flawed game logic within the normal context of the game. Your full plate armor and shield will turn into tissue paper versus arrows if you're held.
Anyway, that aside, follow along the conversation, and you'll see that the point here was that hold person was highly effective, even more effective than you might think it would be.
>We purposefully raised him wrong, as a joke.
>monk
For all the cool things it has the drawbacks are just too bad.
You know the rule, motherfucker. Post it
Its not flawed game logic though. AC determines how easy you are to hit. Not how much damage a blow will do. Sure, a sword hitting steel plate doesn't care if you're paralyzed or not. But that's not how AC works. It's an abstraction to determine how likely you are to get hurt. Being a fucking flesh statue makes you pretty easy to hurt.
I don't actually have it, but tell you what I'll download it, and I guarantee you the next time I post I'll actually stream it instead of the fucking webm cheating fucks.How about that? I
>only one person responding with Jan Jansen to this
What in the hell...
You mean the guy selling without a licence? Sorry bud, only Lawful good characters on my team. Of literally just me and Anomen because Keldon called us the brotherhood of the quivering sausagefest and left.
In my head, this guy is a mentally handicapped cute shota boy who's running around completely naked except for a dark-purple hoodie that just barely covers his perfectly round buttcheeks.
It's a person in full plate armor being hit by a weak unintelligent creature as if the armor isn't there at all. It's an archer shooting at range at a person in full plate who is held and the armor is now intangible for every shot. I'm not talking about reasonably worse AC here, I'm talking about these becoming fucking automatic hits. You have to be retarded if you can look at these scenarios and think that's good game logic.
>AC determines how easy you are to hit
that never made any sense because full plate sure as fuck does not make you agile
>no love for Mazzy
Don't you like... petite girls, Yea Forums?
I really dislike the entire area and dungeon where you get her. I don't even think I have a good reason to, I don't immediately remember anything awful about it but its built into my brain to go "leave this bit till later, honest its fucking shit"
So I never get it on much with Mazzy, which is criminal as I literally live for the shorties.
He's amusing the first time you play through with him. After that he's by far the most annoying motherfucker you can possibly choose.

The shadow dungeon is pretty balls, but if you want raw DPS for your group, she's a very good choice. 5 points in short bows + a decent bow to start with makes her hit almost every shot, she's like a reliable machine-gun.

Wew lad. New levels of stupidity on Yea Forums today.
It's all about how easy it is for steel to meet flesh. Either you're while and can duck out of the way resulting in high AC, or you're wrapped in protective steel meaning most blows will glance off of you resulting in high AC. It's not that complicated.
>Wow people massively overthink/overinterpret a mechanic in D&D?

>most blows will glance off of you

I liked siege of dragonspear though. I didn't pay for it so I can't comment on the price but it was a neat little campaign. A bit railroaded but then again so was ToB.
No but he'll google it.
Aside from the LGBT/tranny drama, is the Dragonspear campaign actually any good? I haven't heard either good or bad stuff about it.
Because of EE and Dragonspear I have little to no hope for BG3.
I wouldn't give those hacks money if they sold this for a dollar.
What! I do NOT play Siege OF Dragonspear user BECAUSE it does NOT integrate WITH Baldur's Gate 2 IN a SATISFYING manner user AND Baldur's Gate 2 does NOT acknowledge Siege of Dragonspear user SO I do NOT play Siege of Dragonspear user BECAUSE it is NOT verisimilitudinous user! (Is not! Is not!)
>Collector's edition literally nobody was stupid enough to buy
>Likely to thus be a rare fucking item in collections 30 years from now.
Fuck me I'd buy it for a dollar. Shame about disc rot.
You'll have to use your critical thinking skills to decide that one kiddo.
If something is poor in quality they add certain current divisive topics to boost sales. That is literally all SoD is.
It's stand-alone filler. If you just want more content, quest and items with no impact or relevance in BG1/2, then give it a try.
I like larian, but he's right. It's vivid, original, occasionally funny.
But not well written, and the irony gets tiresome.
You can criticize something and enjoy it, you can be nuanced, not everything has to be gang fights and propaganda.
>Is the Dragonspear campaign actually any good?
You have a (female) paladin antagonist who's going on a crusade, causing the deaths of hundreds if not thousands, just so she can rescue her uncle from hell.
Long story short, fuck no.
You two are worse than the waifuposter.
Forgot the part when despite or all that... she is "good" and you should feel sorry for her.
>Shame about disc rot.
yet another zoomer buying into the digital jewkike meme about disc rot. listen, young grasshopper, I have hundreds of music cds from the early-mid 80s and every single one of them is still in perfect condition.
I've forgotten it completely. I thought the voice was Kalah's voice from BG2 but I listened to it and it wasn't quite right.
Maybe if I read more of your posts it'll come to me.
She IS cute BUT she is NOT wife!
Do NOT worry user it IS okay user! You ARE a GOOD user!
Let me file your opinion away where it belongs.
I have to admit I'm curious about some of the mods about her. Imagine if it gives you the option to punish her for being an idiot...
Haha... m'bad!
Between this and THOSE neverwinter modules, I feel that I don't understand women as much as I thought.
Not really.
>System based on tabletop PnP
>W-w-what do you mean they only have to check an attack roll against my armor!
>I demand that we spend 10 more minutes between every combat roll to determine damage type against damage resistance and player vulnerabilities!
A true autist.
I DO want TO punish her user BECAUSE she DOES give me GREAT soreness user! (She does! She does!)
It probably wouldn't have been as bad if she was blackguard or a fighter, but no she's a paladin. She should've lost her paladin status from the very first kill in the crusade.
Something being rare but unwanted doesn't mean people will pay for it, not even collectors.
Good thing those have absolutely nothing to do with BG3.
Are they still pushing half-elf mutts being better than humans in everyway with no penalties?
If so, shit game, 0/10.
Larian DOES give CUTE wifes user! Here IS a CUTE Larian giraffe wife!
...I miss Kingmaker general. It was a good, comfy place. ;_;
Trust is a huge deal for women, and having a big, protective brother (or father) figure is generally a very attractive thing to them, to the point where they harbour secret fuck fantasies.
Rape I'm not so sure, there can be dozens of reason why anyone would find it enticing, though it probably just comes down to power play. Women are submissive by nature and crave asseritve men, throw in literal physical abuse to give it a very personal note. Don't ">t. armchair psychologist" me.
Also what "modules" are you talking about? Never played NWN. Do they have an equivalent of Loverslab or something?
Her introduction was a bit hamfirsted and silly how she suddenly teleports behind you with needle.
Actual DoS2 spoilers.
But that sex scene was hot as fuck and much more graphic and lewd than what I was expecting. Also I think the bad things that happened to her excludes her from being cute as cute implies some kind of purity.
Adwr don't play it or talk about it. It is shit and very lewd and crude.

It's about being raped at some point isn't it?
Her introduction in Fort Joy does feel like it was either written by someone else or it was a first draft. Because during her first meeting on the ship and after Fort Joy, she behaves like a completely different person.
Thankfully, she drops the edgelord schtick very quickly and actually becomes a pretty likeable character with a cute romance path.
Its ok but nothing special. Fun to see they managed to do something new with the engine though
You CAN play A Dance with Spies instead IF you ARE male user AND you CAN have MANY sex WITH Imoen WITHOUT being HER brother BUT I do NOT recommend user BECAUSE it DOES have MANY sex OF wifes AND others AND I do NOT want sex OF wifes AND others IF it IS during wife status user BUT before status IS okay BUT during wife status is NOT okay FOR me user BUT if it IS okay FOR you anons it IS okay!

You're either a stupid and pathetic samefagger or for some reason you and your buddy there are both dumb reddit spacers.
"Rape" is a huge fetish among women for whatever reason, but it's exactly that, pretend rape. I've seen effeminate bottoms have very similar fantasies so it's probably part biochemistry, part power play.
What men don't actually get is they don't like real rape, only a fantasy that plays out exactly to their whims, exactly the way they want to. Which is, naturally, impossible to guess correctly without telepathy.
Holy shit, I refuse to believe it is one guy. Is there some sort of tranny discord doing this?
>Just play Swordflight the greatest NWN1 module ever made
>the end of the game she'll be wearing a sundress and serving tea and cakes.
Given that her romance is cutesy as fuck and she manages be way more "invested" in her romance than Lohse, you are not far off.

Amusingly, it is a bit concerning how little people care about BG3.
I just want an elven/drow waifu as a companion, but with how desperately woke WotC is nowadays I am not getting my hopes up for a good female companion.
not sure if I remember AD&D rules right but you get to throw a dice for every lvl up. wizards only a 1D4+CON and Barbarians even a 1D10+CON
if you are a fighter and throw a natural 1 you better reload this fucker
there might be some special rules for characters above lvl 20 but Im not sure
After level 10 I think you lose extra HP point when leveling up and you always gain 3. Balance or some shit. Don't think too much about things like that, the game starts losing decent progression for non-caster characters after those levels.
Ouch. Why tho?
What a legend.

I'm actually surprised people are excited at all about BG3. Except for people who didn't play the originals, of course. Different studio with 300 people working on... for an isometric rpg that, at best, sells 2 millions? I'm expecting a witcher 3 for consoles wannabe.

Is divinity good? I tried the first one but I couldn't really get into it.
Kinda annoyed me how it seemed designed around coop
On the other hand I am very happy Beamdog got cucked
Canonically Neera is still alive during 5e and Minsk too. The player character from the games supposedly died/ascended during the beginning of 5e, so Bhaal is back too.
>Except it's not 3rd edition
Do you have trouble piercing information together? Or do you only have a 30 second long memory? The way DnD handles paralyzation in 3rd edition is really simple and much better than in Baldur's Gate. It's not complicated. You, or someone like you, thought it was too complicated to make paralyzation be balanced or realistic at all. But it turns out that a good game mechanic can be very simple.
>>Also, when did I say it was flawless?
I'm not necessarily saying you said it, you could be another idiot taking up the argument of a previous idiot. You can see that particular argument here:
>>"Its not flawed game logic though."
> I guess I'll throw in an "abstraction" as well as that seems to rustle the jimmies for you a bit seeing as how it got you to resort to your zoomer Reddit memes.
You cannot beg for upvotes here my basedfriend.
its good but not the second comming of BG2 like some fanatics here pretend it to be
It rewards marshal classes for starting off as marshal classes. It's all just balance nonsense. It represents your characters early formation so has the greatest impact on your overall fortitude. Spent your 20s in a library reading books? You're a week mother fucker. Spent your 20s in a gym lifting weights? You can still stomp some ass at 50.
Who needs to spend their lives in the gym when Black Blade of Disaster + Tenser + Improved Haste exists?
I'm literally halfway through chaper 4 of Swordlight right now. It's an absolutely overrated grindfest and chapters 3 and 4 are a huge shallow filler with tons of repetitive encounters.
Quantity over quality all over the place, even in chapter 2 - just remember those godawful sewers.
DOS2 is a better game, with more grounded, coherent story and is still enjoyable in single player. I wasn't a big fan of DOS1, but I had bucketloads of fun with the sequel. And Sebille is my girl forever and ever.
Who the fuck is Neera?
I finished 1 with the "canon" party - Imoen, Jaheira, Khalid, Minsc and Dyaneheir. There are much better options though. Kivan and Kagain stand out as beasts and yeah, Edwin is pretty good.
In 2 I went with the people that despise each other. Had Keldorn and Viconia as well as Minsc and Edwin. Last member was Korgan becuse I had a lack of dwarves in the party and we cant have that.
I appreciate the effort, but could I get an answer in english please?
Do you have trouble "piercing" information together? It's a fucking 2nd edition game. Why the fuck would they have 3rd edition mechanics that didn't even exist yet in it? Your entire argument is "why didn't they have thing that didn't exist?"
Respond or don't, I'm done with your retarded ass. Also, abstraction.

>Had Keldorn and Viconia as well as Minsc and Edwin. Last member was Korgan becuse I had a lack of dwarves in the party and we cant have that.
This is the best party and no one will convince me otherwise.
The very first thing that happens to you is you get raped
You can later befriend the rapist, and take him as your lover.
What? Cyric literally shows up and says he's tired of dealing with the throne so he wants one of the bhaalspawn to take it. Why would he suddenly change his mind?
You become more powerful sure but the other gods didn't seem to be without personality or agency. I see no reason why you can't devote some time to looking after your former companions.
What!
backstabbing is shit
its a one time hit multiplicator that does nothing to demonlords like Doubleheadbaboon
placing 10 traps on his feet before talking to him sends him back crying to his zoo realm
How about backstabbing with Staff of the Ram +6
While I enjoy a thief I will caution that they take an extreme amount of micromanagement between either having to buff with non detection in late game or simply constantly running and breaking line of sight in order to re-stealth, they can be a bit of a hassle. With that said though, nothing beats struggling against a powerful boss just to reload, send in a thief, backstab, and be done with it in a moment.
>Do you have trouble "piercing" information together? It's a fucking 2nd edition game. Why the fuck would they have 3rd edition mechanics that didn't even exist yet in it? Your entire argument is "why didn't they have thing that didn't exist?"
It doesn't have to use 3rd edition mechanics, retard, the point was that game mechanics for paralyzation can be very simple and still much better than what was in Baldur's Gate. You cried that it's way too complicated and you have to overthink it, but it's not complicated, at all. There are other games with better mechanics for this that are really simple. Does it hurt your little brain and make you feel insecure that I lightly criticized one game mechanic in Baldur's Gate? Oooooh nooooo!
>Respond or don't, I'm done with your retarded ass.
Oh no, a moron is done trying to argue with me. Well I'm fucked.
or getting 3 million xp in thief so you can get the use any item HLA and swap between staff of the ram and staff of the magi to get infinite backstabs
I need a picture to visualize that.
It's not that you don't have personality, it's that you are no longer "you".
Ah, that explains it. I stayed away from that abortion.
It was pretty fun. Bit of a sausage fest but Edwin was a she for a while. And I like how he and Korgan troll everyone.
Why is this game so overrated.
>Still no aribeth mod for BG1
What makes you think that?
I got no indication that I would suddenly become Bhaal if I took the throne. Wasn't overcoming that obstacle what all the trails were about?
She IS cute!
here's your enhanced Aribeth, bro
Dafuck is that?
No!
Did Sephiroth do this?
Well, according to the Avatar series, the memory of the gods are perfect and so they remember everything about their moral lives, but give absolutely zero fucks about it
>Amusingly, it is a bit concerning how little people care about BG3.
Because zoomers are misinformed idiots, see
>"This an example of the reworked graphics in the NWNEE. We are working on it."
>two years later...
>...
Either you're trolling, or this game WILL become cancer.
Neera should never be canon, period.
Like a true consolecuck.
Right but surely that's a gradual process. Eventually you'll become jaded but for a few centuries at least you'll be pretty similar to a mortal.
Fuck it's already been two years?
Not that other user, but this is an interesting topic. There are numerous instances in the series where the blood and power of Bhaal, even diminished as it is, has some influence on you. The multiple dream sections in BG1 show it trying to influence you to be more murderous although you can fight back or use it for your own ends. The slayer form and how uncontrollable and harmful it can be for you in BG2 shows you just a taste of how the power of being a murder god can change you
So even if you don't become Bhaal, just turning into the god of murder may change you to make you more murderous. Maybe. At least it might seem like a possible outcome, since the game suggests it multiple times.
The resemblance is uncanny
This DOES give me GREAT soreness!
The point was that Larian doesn't do stuff like The Witcher in any capacity. You'd know that if you played any of their games, they aren't exactly a new studio you know.
What is this fetish of drawing the characters looking up so the neck looks like a big dick?
I still don't know if she's supposed to be an elf or half-elf. Apparently, even Bioware can't decide.
Ah yes, Divine Divinity, the true console experience.
Retard.
>Those pointy, stubby fingers
Eww, this would be like getting stroked off and prostate massaged by the dude that changes my cars oil.
Yes. I'm sure they (and WotC) want to stay and never leave that genre. Enjoy your gameplay and user interface designed to be played with a joystick.
Ao, just tell Jergal to stop being a whiny bitch and get back to work already, lmao.
Give ME sternocleidomastoid wife!
Yes and that all lead up to the trails. If you at any point in those trails gave into Bhaal's temptations then you would have your alignment shifted to evil. You can resist all of it though and keep your alignment.
Speaking of NWN. Do I have to play through boring as fuck OC campaign, or can I skip it and go straight to expansions that are apparently much better? I never had a chance to play that game in earnest.
Larian changed their genre plenty of times over the course of 20 years. You keep outing yourself, zoomer.
Does anyone else tend to play a good PC with a mostly or entirely evil party?
The evil characters are just so much more fun, and it's amusing to watch them complain about all the good deeds I do.
You realize that Larian changes their genre with almost every game and that some of them already were on consoles, right?
I like good characters. I don't like lawful stupid or chaotic randumb characters.
You SHOULD go STRAIGHT to expansions user BECAUSE you ARE new character IN Shadows of Undrentide user AND Shadows of Undrentide character IS same character IN Hordes of the Underdark user BUT original campaign IS different character user AND worst character user AND Shadows of Undrentide AND Hordes of the Underdark character CAN steal original campaign characters wife user! (He can! He can!)
I forgot about that
based Drogan's apprentice giving the dick to Aribeth and drow puss at the same time
Ao is such neglectful father figure. Just like my own. :(
Yes and that all lead up to the trails. If you at any point in those trails gave into Bhaal's temptations then you would have your alignment shifted to evil. You can resist all of it though and keep your alignment.
Yep, that's a good point, both for and against. The trials in BG2 show temptations from the power of Bhaal that you're reclaiming. You can resist it, or work with it. So maybe this shows you can resist being controlled by the power of murder. That said, the power you're resisting and fighting in the trial is SO INSIGNIFICANT next to the full power you may have to control when you become the full on god of murder.
The fact that you managed to waifu a cute Eilistraeean is just an icing on the cake.
I DO prefer ONE wife user BUT it IS fun TO have DOUBLE wife SOMETIMES user! (It is! It is!)
OC has its moments. It's a very typical fantasy heroic adventure. It's just terrible at giving you role-playing opportunities.
The expansions are better but SoU is the only one that feels like an RPG, even though you still don't have a party. In HotU you're just dragged through the main quest and fight, fight, fight Diablo-style not that differently from the OC.
>you're just dragged through the main quest and fight, fight, fight Diablo-style
It's an interesting main quest with pretty fun encounters. Chapter 1 is dogshit though.
I thought the trailer was really awesome but there's not much to get excited about yet.
Trailer had me confused as fuck.
Is that how new mindflayers are born? I had no fucking idea if that were the case.
The majority of "RPG fans" have only heard of Baldur's Gate and maybe played it for a few hours before putting it down because it's too "janky", then go on to say how Larian of all people would make a streamlined console action RPG out of it. Just look at this thread and you know it's true.
>Is that how new mindflayers are born?
It is. Old D&D had some really dark shit in it.
Of course, but the choices you get boil down to "of course, it will be my honour to do X!", "as long as I get paid well I'll do X, I guess" and "I fucking hate you all and once I do X I'm going to rip out your kidneys and shove them up your ears!" SoU at least has some exploring the ruins and such.
Mind flayers have some cool lore.
Did you know they once used to control the entire multiverse until their slave laborers rebelled?
Based and true.
Imagine not playing Planescape Torment
This is your defense? Really? Someone who "putting it down" the original BG would be happy for a streamlined console action rpg.
Yeap. And to anyone that claims mindflayers aren't based off of some Lovecraft shit, Gygax literally got the idea for them after seeing a book cover from an August Derleth book (the guy that continued the cthulu mythos after Lovecraft). So, they are directly inspired by it.
In ToB I had Viconia suggest Imoen become my sex slave for saving her from spell hold. She seemed against the idea, but not entirely. Keep in mind this was without any mods.
I honestly don't see any problem with CHAR and Imoen hooking up.
It's not incest if you're only half siblings and your common parent is a god.
The point was that real BG fans want something close to the original, while people who never actually played BG that much are already complaining about a game that doesn't exist yet for things they'd probably like.
>complaining about a game
>for things they'd probably like.
Honestly I kind of hope they go the PST route and scrap the gameplay for a heavier focus on the story.
As much as I like BG1&2 it doesn't hold a candle to PST.
Oh no, bump limit reached. We're dying. I just want to let you all know that I appreciate finally having a decent thread of discussion that didn't devolve entirely into memes and internet fights. But:
>You're all still a bunch of faggots that should kill themselves.
Also, Valerie IS a filthy whore! SHE IS! she is!
No!
>Honestly I kind of hope they go the PST route and scrap the gameplay for a heavier focus on the story.
That's really not where Larian's strengths lie honestly.
The interview talking about how missing is not fun shows exactly what are they doing.
I played the Enhanced Editions and Siege of Dragonspear this year and had a good time. Sorry, fag.
The problem was made by writing in BG2 suddenly treating her like a sister, even though in BG1 their relationship is nothing of the sort.
I mean, I don't really care due to a number of reasons, including romance in video games being handled fairly poorly, but it's just fucking jarring that she is suddenly treated as a sister out of nowhere.
>missing is not fun
I could not disagree more with this sentiment. It's fantastic that they included a proper level 1 experience for players. Level 1 parties are notoriously short lived. You can only be level 1 for a short time period and it's a very different experience being that low level. The progression of your character in a world that doesn't change its difficult makes for a more immersive experience.
Yes. I saw her FUCKING a pig that was covered IN shit. I DID! I DID!
No!
Valerie: the porker of pork. Consumer of ham.
Never had no rats, no sireee.
Don't worry user. Valerie is cute and made of candy. I still think Kalikke is a superior waifu, but you can have your Valerie. Have fun.
>not redeeming the best waifu, Nyrissa
Now I can say it out loud. It's a TAVERN not a HOTEL, for fuck's sake.
Thank YOU user! You ARE a GOOD user! Your wife IS a CUTE wife too user! (She is! She is!)
Except he has rooms for rent. Which makes it at least an Inn, but hotels also serve food and drink so that's also correct. But tavern? No, faggot. Taverns don't rent rooms.
Reminder that people whined endlessly about Original Sin being too difficult.
Read the reply chain again.
>too
>Implying Valerie is cute
Pigfuckers aren't cute
Doesn't that guy currently work as an accountant for Kelemvor out of boredom?
