Not sure what to tell you, I also have a premium edition of Avowed and it came as a standard Steam Soundtrack. Looks like this So I was hoping for somethings similar for OW2.

I have the premium edition and can only access the soundtrack through the app, as far as I know. So far it's the same with OW2.

Yup

I don't have much experience as a solo Wizard, but here are some things that are generally useful: Concelhaut's Parasitic Staff is excellent for the early game. It's a lot more efficient than using damaging spells, so you have to rest less often. It comes exceptional - which is already fantastic at lvl 1, but more importantly it has nearly twice the base damage of normal two handers. That means nearly +100% multiplicative(!) damage. *rogues cry* Chillfog is also one of the best spells early on. Tier 3 affliction on a AoE with pulsing rolls (rng is less of a problem), pulsing damage, long duration. Later in the game I consider Slicken to be better than Chillfog because it can make a huge difference in certain fights who disables whom first. If you can Slicken-prone Lagufaeth or Adragans before they can paralyze you the fight is won - the other way round it's lost. Chillfig will not win you this duel of hard disables. Confusion is very strong in PoE. Hence all spells which cause Confusion are excellent and can win you lots of fights alone. Get Ninagauth's Shadowflame. It is excellent bc. it combines hard CC with good dmg -> fantastic action and spell use economy. Against certain bosses, Combusitng Wounds + Wall of Flames + Chillfog is a fantastic combo. Most dragons are not immune to paralyze, so using paralyzing effects in them works very well (it also means +100% dmg received which is nice against those big dmg sponges). Dropping RES without any means to raise Concentration otherwise WILL be a problem against numerous, fast hitting foes unless you can raise your defenses a lot (may be expensive in terms of spell uses though). Defenses like dflection hae increasing returns, so I wouldn't drop RES in the first place. Medium and large shields do indeed put their acc malus onto your offensive spells You can run away and break engagement - you will eat a disengagement attack though. If you have very high deflection it's not a big deal. If you are faster than the enemy (bc. Deleterious Alacrity and/or Boots of Speed etc.) the enemies will not pursue far bc. their AI recognizes that it's pointless. The guy's name is Raedric (the Seventh) Infuse with Vital Essence can be used to restore health (no endurance but health). It works with all healing modifiers (MIG, healing done, healing received). If you still have lots of spell uses but are at low health you can use it to prevent resting. If you take it as Spell Mastery (I like that) you can use it at the end of fights and stay at +90% health all the time. It can be used to outheal your damage in tough, long encounters: usually there's a limit with how much damage to endurance you can outheal because at some point your health will be so low that you cannot heal anymore. Not if you have uses of Infuse with Vital Essence left. Using Infuse with Vital Essence also means you can lower CON. Your health pool can be smaller - since you can heal it. You cannot solo several encounters at the levels you used to with a party. You will have to come back later for the bear cave, Raedric etc. Summons are very important whe4n going solo. Interestingly Essential Phantom is a lvl-4 spell. So you can have it as spell mastery. That means a free summon in every fight. Although it's competing with Shadowflame and Confusion which makes this a really tough call. Wall of Many Colors: fantastic spell I think DEX is important. As I said above: many fights are about who disables whom first. Casting speed matters. I find it a lot more important than MIG and also more important than PER.

You have access to the Avowed soundtrack separately?

On the quest "A Final Death for Gravity" it looks like if you don't grab the boots off of the corpse right away, when you come back the corpse is gone. I ran around looking for where it could have gone and it looks like it's under ground now. It used to be on the ground in front of the giant lift, but now the only marker for the quest I see is down underneath the lift, which you can't get to. See the attached screenshot.

I really think obsidian crafted something special with this one! I did my pre-order of the premium edition and i'm already 8 hours in. Only pet peeve i have with this game is how limited the camera perspectives feel...like the first person camera doesn't have a visible body whatsoever like we had in avowed which was great there and i wholeheartedly expected it here, also the third person camera (that i know was a last minute addition) feels really limited, like, we don't have an input to switch perspectives in-game nor can we manually switch shoulders without going on a menu, it feels really limiting there's also the fact your character doesn't really has many animations in third person besides movement and shooting, melee etc it feels really robotic. Would be great to see some improvements on both fronts! Small things like a small hand animation to pick up items on both perspectives, seamlessly switching between perspectives and changing shoulders in 3rd person also just being able to see your currently equiped weapon after sheathing it would all go a long way to help immersion. First person visible body is a lot of work and i don't know if it could be possible but it would also be awesome to see.

Good ole Corpo. Left out my part of the deal.

In 2025, in the final version of the game 1.4.7, there’s still this bug where you can’t get the “Gotta Peep Them All” achievement after completing all the cards in NG+. A serious company, a final version of the game — and yet such an oversight. Please fix this...

Tried two episodes of Typhoon Family (k-drama, netflix). Mostly because ever since Rain or Shine (melodrama-rom, with a background seemingly inspired by the collapse of Sampoong Dept. Store) I will try anything with Lee Jun-Ho (he's a member of 2PM/singer) in it as a lead. King of the Land (pure rom com) was fun at the start but fell off for me midway and The Red Sleeve (rom-drama) was fairly decent even tho I'm tired of Joseon-era settings. Rain or Shine is the best (main lead) series of his imo, tho. Anyway - this new one is more of a period/business/relationship drama+romance. The period is the late 1990's, so that's fine for me, during that era's financial crisis. Rich boi loses richness/faces tragedy and tries to make it in the aftermath. It seems pretty good, but not sure it's fitting my mood. I'll give it my usual 4 episodes try. Many at dramabeans seem to love it, so my reservation is likely my usual grumpy old fart-ness. >.> Lee Jun-Ho and Kim Min-ha are both great tho.

I complete the tutorial up until waking up and deciding to go to paradise island. The game crashes to the Home Screen on the loading screen when trying to travel to the island. None of the saves work after that. Can’t even load saves. Playing on premium edition latest update.

Are the OSTs published on Obsidian Youtube channel (Fibonacci, Boarst Rockets) not included in the premium version of the game? Those songs were the main reason I ordered premium version, since I saw that it came with OST included. Are there plans to add them later at least? Also, are you gonna make the OST a separate steam entry as with Avowed instead of accessing it through some launcher in Artbook folder?

Hi everyone, After having a blast (heh, sorry..) with Boeroer’s Hurtsacker in a small party (Edér, Fire Priest, Hurt) I realized I wanted to push things solo. I don’t, necessarily, have to use melee weapons for damage, although the staff summon looks appealing, and I think there’s a nice high level lance too? Regardless, if I need to park myself behind a tower shield (or a small shield) that’s what I’ll do. Some considerations: I like min-maxing, functionality is most important. So my first instinct was tank dex, However after Hurt I don’t know if the much? slower spell casting won’t be a huge downside. I loved nuking the crap out of that witch in Roderick’s keep at lvl 3 with Hurt (chill fog opener, combusting wounds while Edér knocked her down, 2x arcane blast and 2 auto attacks killed the entire group on hard. I think priest cast accuracy prayer) I tried a much more conservative approach first by blocking the door and omg the wizard + witch murderized us with fireballs and lances and I don’t know wtf else. So I’m afraid a slow caster solo would have ..unfortunate results. I’m also seriously concerned about tanking res because of interrupts. I mean, if defence is high chances are it isn’t as big an issue .. until you get hit with an AoE or insect plague or something. I don’t know about race. I was thinking maybe moon godlike for the auxiliary healing, or Aumaua for the bonus vs prone and stun (might help vs spirits and dragons?) or pale elf (vs spirits cold dmg.. maybe with the mantle it’d be enough..) or maybe fire godlike, since I’m likely going to be getting grazed a lot, does retaliation add damage to such? Is it viable? lastly, I don’t like not fighting encounters. I don’t care if I have to rest after every fight, I do hate not fighting it. I’ll retreat if I 100% have to (not fighting Roderick at lvl 3 solo no matter what, but I will kill his keep at lvls 3-4 if I can do it. Bear has to die, lvl 3 the latest Please note I’m quite willing to learn in spite anything I’ve said so if I’m totally wrong, correct me! Also advise me on spells , skills, etc, so far, and 100% willing to change it I have: Mig 15, con 14, dex 10, per 19, int 18, res 3, moon dude, hatchet and small shield, chill fog, staff, w.double, aim, infuse vital essence, siphon, …and that’s as far as I got. Oh and arcane veil lol. I was thinking maybe a bit of stealth to try to sneak into better positions and ofc mechanics and lore (how much both?) any athletics or survival? Random thoughts: I think I need something to nuke casters with when I can’t close in. Would fire ray and missiles work? Or just try to land paralyze? But then how to kill them effectively even if paralyze works. Can you somehow run away and break engagement? So far I’ve only seen two enemies break off pursuit.. can you use figurines to escape? For that matter I think even at 6000 I should buy that initial figurine? Does shield penalty still affect spells? ok I’ll shut up now lol, thanks for any replies.

Would it be tasteless of me to quote my signature here?

You could say that about just any type of relationship in cRPGa, including friendship. Building relationships with companions by doing quests for them is a popular approach to writing. And a friendship can feel every bit as forced if it is not player's choice but writer's insistence. I've actually had less issues with romances (as someone who rarely plays them) because usually there is a way to turn them down. One game where I've found the approach to relationshps interesting (even if the game itself was barely finished and not that good) was Dragon Age 2, because it had both friendship an rivarly. My character ended up with very different relationships with everyone at the end of the game, and it didn't feel like simply completing the companion quests meant everyone was now best buddies.

pretty sure someone on this forum once quoted this A man catches a magical golden fish, who tells him: "I'm going to grant you a wish, any wish, but your neighbour will receive double what you get." After thinking for a bit, the man says "I wish I was blind in one eye."

Same issue and also on PlayStation platform. Loving the game so far but want or wait to get that content before going much further.

Upon completing a refreshing bit of news; I somehow have locked myself out of the next quest from milverstreet. My dialogue is constrained to an end conversation option and the quest “the brain benders of aunties choice” never commenced. I am currently stuck from progressing for whom the bridge tolls and the saboteur of paradise until it gets fixed, I guess?

I posted 3 hours ago? Lift the veil. Not 100. 106 and change. If I did something wrong do tell.

I have some game play suggestions that might be cool to add to increase the entertainment of the game. Pets idea from the first as another little carrying your extra stuff pal like an aphid that while your riding in your buggy his little antanas can blow in the wind. (So cute) We need buggy clothes and pet clothes. More decor ideas for building. Able to change your character to look more like you and name them. Hopefully from all that we can make it a 5 player game bc I have 3 kids and us as parents love this games as well and you have to help our kids through this cute little game. More special weapons, for those that like the challenge of the fight and want to be the best at the game. More foods to make. More building materials. Different animals to ride. Event items during holidays that you can collect or make. Please let there be frogs or even grasshoppers. Game is to cute and sometimes annoying with the game play lag but enjoy the fights and building and playing this with my husband and 2 boys. So excited cant wait til the next updates to come out.

@Hurlshot is looking for rational and reasonable, but what too many people ain't figured out yet is that rational and reasonable is incidental concerns which 90% o' the time may be deflected with whataboutism or bible verse. the remaining ten percent? the maga faithful, when confronted with clear evidence o' mistake and/or hypocrisy, will final admit, "nothing you say or do will change my mind." even before hillary's deplorables remark, libs like hurl made real americans feel shame. all too frequent you (not hurl specific, but libs in general,) dismissed their beliefs as conspiracy theories and religious zealotry. recognizing that minorities commit more crime and are habitual leeching off o' government welfare programs is facts according to tucker carlson, but libs identify such truth telling as racist. real americans worked harder and got less every year, but libs ignored their problems and instead focused on providing free transition surgery to prisoners. etc. hurl being annoyed and confused is the point. immigrant suffering is also the point. precisely because immigrants is part of the them as opposed to the maga us, their suffering is justified and righteous. additional, hurl's impotent displeasure is in part why ice has videographers following around their ice teams. seeing them suffer is swell, but hurl qqing about the unnecessary cruelty is delicious. children crying as their parents is detained with excessive force is the point... but hurl predictable complaining is also a motivating factor. vol's transitive property stoopid which resulted in every act o' violence being the fault of blm and antifa has been coopted by the trump administration. 'ccording to 47, antifa is a terrorist organization. if you suggest that a member o' the trump administration is fascist, authoritarian, or you accuse 'em of using unnecessary violence to achieve illegal government goals, then you are a member of antifa and as such a terrorist and an enemy of the state? hurl being outraged by this kinda stoopid is as much the point as is the genuine authoritarian effort to suppress dissent. etc. maga wants trump to lower prices of groceries, housing and healthcare, but they don't need it. what maga needs is for them to suffer and for hurl to complain without being able to do anything about it. HA! Good Fun!

usa already have least cost effective military in the world now they can have the least cost effective secret police too

No Consumerism here either. I did my part.

I preordered it a month ago

Same here, made an account for this reason.
