"Go on."

I have just received the 'Snobbish' flaw: DESCRIPTION You don't like getting your hands dirty and don't have the stomach for manual labor. You can no longer breakdown your items, but any crafting materials you find sell for more. EFFECTS +20% vendor price for crafting materials You can no longer break down items. I did, however, not receive it because I've bought a lot of crafting materials... I triggered the flaw because I sold a lot of materials. It seems the game mistook me selling the items for buying them. I generally like the 'flaw system' because it highlights my choices (I received the 'Treacherous' flaw because I save-scummed for example. And yes, I also accepted the 'Flawed' flaw). But, it needs to make sense. I skip dialogue? The game 'punishes' me with a timer in conversation. That is fun and makes sense in a way. In this case, I received the 'Snobbish' flaw and the description reads: 'You don't like getting your hands dirty and don't have the stomach for manual labor. You can no longer breakdown your items, but any crafting materials you find sell for more.'. That feels wrong. I was selling said crafting materials because I needed money, yes. I had al those materials because I was very diligent in exploring, looting, crafting and breaking down items for materials. That's how I ended up with a large surplus. By 'getting my hands dirty'. I also have the 'Hermit' flaw for example. That felt right. In this case, it feels like the game made a mistake. I don't mind it that much, but this feels like a bug to me. I don't know if it matters but I was selling the items to the Vendor Mech at the Greater Tranquility Station (in order to buy ).

That's really interesting, playing on PC and specifically going into Laplace's garden and getting XP from discovering it triggered this bug for me too, and it's specifically that discovery, I went and killed a bunch of mobs and then discovered spireton and that triggered my level and the bug did not happen.

I tested wizard a bit. Serious nerf to durations (chill fog, aim, etc) , also Druid seemed to suffer from this (spirit shift reduced to two turns - 4 with 18 int). A max dps wizard still seems viable. Melee which heavily relied on one chill fog lasting most of the fight, not so much. I’ll try cipher, that sounded fun actually. No delay cipher might be very enjoyable. although antipathetic field at only 1 turn might no longer be anti, unless it pulses multiple times per turn (unlikely)

played the game yesterday for about 5 hours, runnig really smooth. an hour later trying to restart, cant even acces the menu. after the obsidian logo, black screen and FATAL ERROR ue arkansas message. nothing of info or number just fatal error. been breaking my head on it. did full reinstall like 4 times. deleted cache, deleted riva tuner, install on other drive, going into notepad settings to change things. NOTHING. no fix online that helps. somebody anyy idea???

Yes, I've tested it in my game and that is exactly what's happening. The explosive resistance applies to both damage received and damage dealt, sadly. I'm running an explosives/engineering build and really want to be able toss a grenade at my feet! Obsidian, could we pretty please get this issue addressed in the next hotfix/patch?

It appears characters will move into normal melee range when attacking with a reach weapon, despite being unnecessary.

Yes having this same Niles issue he's bugged and won't do anything so I can't progress in the game at all

The text wall of my review is under the spoiler tag. To summarise, it is an action-adventure, there is little roleplay, most of the meaningful choices lie at the end, the level design is atrocious, the combat and the performance are terrible (nonetheless, I am delighted that the game takes only 25GB), the saving system has no place in modern games, and it was a pain to get this to launch (the launcher and telemetry were starting up just fine, though). Also, the post-effects may trigger motion sickness and the only camera option is the first person. The story is passable and the mystery is somewhat compelling. Both protagonists are fine and generally not unpleasant to play as (unless one notices some peculiarities with the Malkavian). The controls are rebindable, but it was not possible to make them comfortable. The small things that I genuinely liked are that the avatar's body is visible and the attires remain the same for both body types. @Raithe Could you please share what ending you got?

So it looks like it's only the modded scopes that are failing ?? interesting - hope they fix it soon, it's a major pain as it is

What an amazing day at Obsidian’s Extra Life 2025 weekend fundraiser! One of the many highlights was welcoming CHOC and hearing powerful stories about why Obsidian and its community support matters; helping children and families find hope and healing during tough times. Please considering joining us on Saturday! Come meet some of the incredible Obsidian team and friends who game for a cause, all to support CHOC. It's amazing how this 11th Annual event demonstrates how we can individually and help others!

There's a bunch of floating grass patches over by the Raptidon drop containers on Eden. Steam / PC They weren't there last run so it must have happened during the last patch.

Rear Adm. Milton Sands, the commander of the Navy SEALs, who pushed to have female instructors in SEAL training, was fired by Mr. Hegseth in August." "Some rising stars have survived right-wing scrutiny. Lt. Gen. Jonathan P. Braga, a decorated Special Operations officer, was sharply criticized in a conservative blog for promoting diversity initiatives. But the strong backing of several senior officers in the elite Special Operations community, which Mr. Hegseth respects, protected him" And just for a vivd example of Hegseth's quality

yep, same. On xbox gamepass. if i turn in the mech parts quest, he just says some repeating dialogue, no multiple choice conversation like before. When i complete the brainbenders quest objectives, he still acts the same and won't let me ask him to let the people move away. I'd like to turn in the quest, and then also do the brainbender quest, but it seems bugged. Very annoying for completionists. I would prefer to not have to load up my last save from before i started the brainbender quest, like 10+ hours ago.

same, on xbox. Inez always has lil speech bubble, dialogue exhausted, and bubble won't go away. not gamebreaking, but still irksome.

yep, same, If i give Hogarth the parts, i cannot talk to him any further. I had only spoken to the tech, the purple mouth guy, and not yet the doctor. I also only sabotaged the radio station. But if i give him the parts and complete that quest, he just doesn't open any dialogue selection interface, he instead repeats the same phrases about how the parts will help. I want to complete both quests, the mechanical parts and the brainbenders quest. but it seems like i have to pick one or the other, and have the rest stuck in my quest queue permanently. very annoying if you want to try to complete all the quests.

BTW how do you manage to play 1.0.42 patch, if current patch is 1.0.41?

Same problem, It also meets in some interaction strings in Archive and other places during game

https://youtu.be/YaXNMeQnFns

I decide to choose Autie's Choise side during main quest in Archive, so Recall Order for the Trifurcated Brain also active. I completed main quest(A Complication with the Computronic Cerebrum) in Archive (reprogrammed UENIAC to Auntie's Choise Logic, give Calcaduceus to Ursula Ormsby). Then "Recall Order for the Trifurcated Brain" quest requires "Return to ACS Undisputed Claim" (return to office where Ursulla and second VP are located. But when I return to Auntie's ship station, port are invaded by Order troops (they are hostile to me because I choose Auntie's side). I killed all of them and simply move to Ursula's office, all Auntie's NPC are also hostiles but reputaion with Aunte's are "Respected level" and do not drop when I killed them. So when I reach door to office it simply blocked by barricade and Sealed. Any suggestions to avoid this bug?

Very good idea, this game begs to be played through multiple times, having the saved games grouped would be awesome.

I'm curious why there is an option to hit in mellee damage by fist (if you armed pistol or one-handed rocket launcher) and butts (if two-handed guns), but no info about ammount of damage and attack speed? I already test and found that it around 19 damage from hit to non-armoured targets like civilians. Also time between shots is around 0.5-0.7 sec for fists and 0.9-1.1 for butt hit. I test it with 0 points in mellee stats. If you guys found something it will be interest to know (does mellee stats affect range weapons if use it like mellee etc). Feel free to share

Is there going to be a fix/patch or is it going to be like other games devs ain't goner give to hoots

During the quest "Forbidden Secrets of the Undisputed Claim" 1) First Playthrough I took Scientist as my background and Witty as one of my starting traits. I was easily able to convince him to talk to me and get the tape. 2) Second Playthough: Lawbringer, without WItty but with the perks Negotiator, Charlatan, Tall Tale Teller, Keen Observer, Space Ranger and the Sickly Flaw, he tells me "nice try" and that locks the quest. I took every dialogue option offered and reloaded more than once with the same result. This needs to be looked into and altered to allow more options to successfully update the quest.
