evilmiera posted:I mentioned this before but its legit been month after month of great games all year. New IPs, great sequels, everything from Indie stuff to that vaunted AAA stuff, in a ton of different genres. Even a bunch of good remasters/remakes. This is legit the best year for remakes/sequels that I've ever seen in my life.

Like the latest one for Two Point Campus which is basically just Two Point/Theme Hospital with the numbers filed off. If the new Cyberpunk DLC is also good I don't even know what to believe anymore.

It doesn't help that for some reason Creative Assembly is stupid as poo poo and ties all their bug fixes to quarterly DLC/patch releases. Like there's a bunch that were introduced in the last DLC months ago, some of which modders fixed in like a day lol, that they won't be addressing until the new DLC releases. Crazy but whatever I guess, I'll still play the fun game

Crazy but whatever I guess, I'll still play the fun game it's because they intentionally do not hire enough QA testers to handle all of the company's products and won't let them patch unless they've been tested. CA has one QA team that they switch between projects so they won't work WH patches for months on end. this has massively hosed them over in the past, basically wasting years of work with WH1/WH2, and their solution was to change nothing and let it their garbage management ruin poo poo forever

turn off the TV posted:i like the part where gale tells the PC that he'll show them how to channel magic or w/e and then your character starts getting uncomfortably close to him throughout the scene until the narrator says it's magically compelling your character to want to gently caress him or something and then he's like "wow and i worked so hard" if it doesn't work it's a mirror image spell, not mind control. it's not magically compelling you to gently caress him. dumbshit

so can someone tell me about this 'act transition', i don't think i've hit it yet, unless going to UD counts, but when i went to try and go to the mountain pass, it gave me a warning i don't remember getting are you supposed to clear the UD to the act first, then proceed or? it's strange, I don't want to leave any content behind, and I'm not sure when i'll get to do Duke and Creche activities if i'm now crawling the UD

some of the places you can manipulate the camera to have awesome setpiece vistas. it honestly feels like they built cohesive full 3D worlds despite the fact that the camera angles were going to be very limited

RandomBlue posted:poo poo, do you not get Gale if that happens? (the guy in the portal) I haven't got him yet, still in act 1. I think I read there are more chances to get him though, I doubt they'd waste a full companion character like that. Would be funny though, high stakes DMing ftw. It meant the hardest fight so far was against 6 regular lvl 2 humans in the first temple. Rogue, barbarian and cleric vs 6 mooks throwing potions and shooting poisoned arrows. It was fun. I wiped several times trying to figure out the combat. Jumping is key. An offensive spell caster would probably be handy.

BG3 - Why did all these Goblins attack me, when the Goblin I busted out of jail said she'd put in a good word? Are they a different group of goblins? It says the camp is further West. Also for some reason Goblins further into this village did not attack me. The ones at the gate forced me to do a Skill check and attacked when I failed, but I ran into another like 15ft from one of his dead buddies and he was like "keeping an eye on ya, don't do anything sus" but otherwise let me be. Edit: BTW, how do you deal with the camera when an enemy is in a house. Had a terrible time trying to angle it to get a look at this guy instead of the roof of the house he was in. He was already aggroed me as part of the ongoing fight (the house was broken and I had a couple people standing on the roof). Oh jeez, not this guy again Ytlaya has issued a correction as of 19:11 on Aug 19, 2023 |
