Skypie posted:I really struggled to get engaged in Pillars also. I dunno, I never played Baldurs Gate but Pillars seemed neat. It just...I dunno. I played for like 3 hours and all that really happened was a weird vision and I killed some bandits? Like, you gotta hook me faster than that because I was just bored. Yeah this is what I mean. I played it a lot further until I had like a castle and went through a big city into a woodland village or something, and just nothing of interest happened. It could have been fine if the characters were in any way interesting, but I don't even remember one companion. Anyway Tyranny is turning out to be pretty good, there's a system where almost every action you take increases your standing with certain factions, and it's really neat since the two main factions are polar opposites from each other and both are interesting in their own way.

I've been tempted from time to time to try out that tabletop simulator but I just don't know how extensive its options are for D&D-esque gaming

Buy Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun. It's a good video game.

This is my first time experiencing the legendary steam summer sale since I've been a console gamer for 15+ years and just got back to PC and... it sucks? Nothing I am interested in is any cheaper than it has been in previous sales.

Look up the console commands so you actually can get a game of the ground.

Nothing I am interested in is any cheaper than it has been in previous sales. Yeah, the don't change the deals every day of the sale any more so there are no pricing mistakes you can jump on like 30 seconds after the store updates for the day so that "Game from last year + all DLC" is only $5. That was the good thing about Steam sales.

Shadow of Mordor for $4 was a great buy. They copied the combat system from the Arkham games and I am glad of it.

I'm probably going to get Tyranny because you all sold me on it after how lackluster and bland Pillars of Eternity was. It sounds pretty rad.

so final verdict tyranny after like 10 hours: it's real good. Characters are really interesting and pretty much all written realistically, the story is good and the gameplay has perfected the isometric rpg elements imho, that even someone like me who never liked this stype gets by just fine. Also the choices you do have a lot of little impacts on the world, I'm not sure how much of the grander story changes but having a lot of people commenting on things you did and changing their reactions to you is neat.

Given that you kind of play a villain, does it have nuanced choices or is it more of the usual with great options like "give up your money to a random stranger for no reason" vs "murder them, their family and piss on their corpses"?

Colonel Cancer posted:Given that you kind of play a villain, does it have nuanced choices or is it more of the usual with great options like "give up your money to a random stranger for no reason" vs "murder them, their family and piss on their corpses"? Id say more nuanced, due to the reputation system working with many different factions you can usually decide between goodish, practical and ruthless options that you have to concider in terms of Impact. If you decide according to the official office you hold youre supposed to be efficient and just, if you want to follow another faction you need to be rebelous or fixated on strength. Tbh Ive not really noticed any of the usual cliche "goody two shoes or twisted psyko" choices you usually get. I dig it a lot. The give money to strangers option is usually given when you get a real benefit so it doesnt seem as dumb as usual.
