Like dude wtf are you doing go hit the ogre with your giant sword. That's really cool if you're a melee guy, but... not useful otherwise. Pawns don't seem to know that they should take the ride, and probably would need to see it happen to think to do it themselves.

I think I watched him chuck my fighter onto this dragon thing I was fighting who had a lot of fun on it im sure. But then he spent the rest of the fight doing literal circles around me.

I'm so glad the old inclination system is gone so you can safely use the pawn commands as much as you want without worrying about it changing their AI to guardian or whatever

It must be a defensive reaction because the last two days I've read, "I leveled up from 1 to 8 outside a town, goty", "I can throw things goty", "an item from the last game is in this one, love the game". It reads like Star Citizen fans at times who haven't played a game in a decade. I never played the first game, what does this provide that's new? People have gotten so caught up in the DLC debate, I just wanna know why the game is good.

Minotaur came into the city wanting to do some shopping and everyone panicked, so he did too and I had to kill the poor scared guy.  Hopefully no important NPCs died.I'm getting tired of pawns going 'I KNOW HOW TO DO THIS QUEST, FOLLOW ME HEY LISTEN FOLLOW ME oh you want to do something else, okay, FOLLOW ME ARISEN'

Please tell me there is a setting or a mod or something to auto-continue NPC conversations. It's so weird and awkward. It's like they found my real-life weakness and decided to put it in a game. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IRuJQBfXDK4

I'm pretty sure you can get pawn specialization scrolls from raising affinity with NPCs. I made a habit of giving flowers to the bar keeper in the capital and she gave me a logistician scroll eventually. This is after already getting one from the priest dude.

I've been off the past couple of days so I've been just eating this game up, so far some basic observations are the thief lasso ability is extremely good since when upgraded it pretty much yanks everything to you where you can execute it almost immediately. Initially I was kind of worried about not having range on the thief but honestly you just don't need it with the lasso. The skyward attack for warriors is almost a guaranteed knock down if you hit something big in the head with it The warrior downward attack that you get when you're just standing on a monster as opposed to clinging is also extremely powerful if you do it on like their head or whatever. Also, something that's just very funny is if you use the radiance augment from ranger, everybody shields their eyes when you walk next to them with the lantern Sloober fucked around with this message at 02:54 on Mar 24, 2024 |

Yeah I gathered that you could do this, but the wikis for this game are still basically non-existent, so I'm not sure which NPC I should be buttering up. Anyone know a confirmed Forager-giver?

Yorkshire Pudding posted:Should I not be equipping my non main-pawns with stuff and just getting new ones regularly? And should I sell all the crap they’re carrying before I send them away? Do not equip your support pawns with stuff unless you're fine with losing your items, because they will take your equipment with them. All the non-equipped stuff they're carrying, on the other hand, should automatically be sent to your storage when they leave.
