"Here is something that may shock you. There is a world beyond America and some of us were born there. Where your political activists don't really matter to anyone." So.. you admit to being ignorant. Why? Because when an Amerikan is found not to know something about another country they are mocked for being ignorant. Why the double standard>

"Can't help but note the hypocrisy of asking "how dare you say GG shares some similarities with hate groups?" while literally comparing the opposition to one of the worst mass murderers in the entire history of mankind." The opposition are SJWs who have bragged about how all gamers should be sent to the gulag and that they should bring back bullying. They have threatened to murder me and repeatedly. Have claimed I'm already dead. Have slandered me. They are nazis. Plain and simple. I don't apologize for telling the truth. \That's another problem with SJWs. they expect one to apologize for telling the truthz. The fact is that people like YOU expect ME to apologize cause I was TRIGGERED by threatened with murder. LMAO

Found a perfect description for PoE!

"And, of course, the one sentence opinions of internet posters are sufficient to decide matters. Don't the put-down crowd have other hobbies?" L0L "It takes a shallow person to overlook the rich lore of PoE." It takes a shallow person to think POE lore is deep and not just bland gobbly ****. Come on, guys. I liek the game but no need to make stuff up to make it seem better than it actually is. "If the game was really bad, people would be ignoring it." Kiddin' right? Are you new the net? -

"This new system Obsidian made makes far more sense, which enhances immersion." No. Want proof? Might. Might isn't about physical strength it's about spiritual strength... yet, coincidentally, the physically biggest race gets +2 might and the samllest gets a minus. Coincidence? I think not. So much illogicy it's not even funny. I like the system but there is so much illogical. Hiow is it logical that magic can't heal wounds but resting in your bed (or on a cavern floor) for 8 hours will heal broken bones? LMAO -
"So, the majority of IWD/BG veterans hate POE? Serious question, can we get some statistics on this that don't point to this group being a "handful of people"?" Did I claim that? I'm a BG veteran and I enjoy PE. My comment was directed at the silly guy who claimed that those who liked GB disliked BG. I know that's silly because I liked the GB games and liked the IE. "Everyone has their opinions, but this one cracks me up..." Truth hurts you? Truth hurts you.

"Very flawed." Also, to quote the great philosopher Atheosis, ' Get over it and move.' \ \I also bet that you have seen popular games/movies that you disliked and you didn't get over it so stop being so hypocritical with your double standards. -

Sure it is. the game is very shallow. Spamming paragraphs doesn't equal depth. -
"They are completionists, and some of them don't seem to appreciate that removing the level cap would either trivialize the end of the game (if the game is not rebalanced)" You make this sound like a bad thing. It's not. "or force everyone to be completionists every time (if the game is rebalanced to account for the lack of a level cap)." No. No, it doesn't.

If you play a game for 100 hours you enjoyed. If you say otherwise you are lying. Not just to others but to yourself. -

"claims that inquisition was WORSE than da2, which was a damn lie. It was not THAT bad." Except DA3 is WORSE than DA2. If you think otherwise you are WRONG. -
You can buy equipment and then enchant them further (if theya rne't at max). This allows you to get that fine weapon with a special property that cna't be enchanted by the player and then make it superb. Best of both worlds. Plus, only weapons and armour can be enchanted so if you see nice rings, helms, or others for sell definitely buy those.

"btw, you have vol on your side o' an argument. that alone should give you pause." Think about that when you defend games you and I both like or criticize games we both dislike. LMAO \ Stop being such a silly little boy. -

Yeah, b/c DnD is the only system with insta kills and hard counters. L0LZ -
Done in 122 hours
Volourn replied to GuerrieroRosso's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
122 hours? WHAT THE HECK DID YOU DO? Leave the game idle? I completed it in less than 60 hours and that was with a lot of fooling around. L0L -

"Ever since Obsidian brought back the fallout franchise from the dead" Obsidian did no such thing. "Well games were better at that time than what we get now. People would not analyze PoE so much if it was as good as BG." \Nonsense. The more popular the net is the more complaints you see. BG was criticized and bashed quite ehavily when it comes out. Trust me,, no matter the game, it would be bashed. Games made before the rise of the net into common use were REALLY lucky. "(and, I'd bet sales)" Million or bust. "Because there's no reason for it. Defiance Bay is open to the player again the moment you reach Twin Elms. In fact the whole "closing" of Defiance Bay is such a non-event, it makes me wonder why they even did it." Agreed. And, I think they should have done more with DB in Act 3 as well.. some reactive quests from what occured should happen too but.. really.. as far as I know.. nothing. \ P.S. The thing about maze and other spells is that they really put the magic into magic. Every game system can haz fireball but weird and wonderful spells like maze , imprisonment, etc.? AWESOMESAUCE. -

"They deliberately did not have hard counters as it just creates what they call puzzle fights. If you don't use the hard counter you are screwed, if you do the fight becomes trivial, and this gets decided before the fight even starts. Casting the spell that protects against maze when you are up against a boss that casts maze is not strategy, that's common sense." The idea is not use the same super spells like maze/use the same ahrd counters all the time. The problem with made/mr demi lich is that is all he used. Better off either a) have the mage not use mze right away b) cast a spell to remove your protections c) cast it on a character who likely won't be defended. Also, mix it up. Maze was not a commonly used spell in BG2 so if you preped just to defend against you may very well be wasting a resource. Unless you were the type to rest between every fight. For example, having a cave that is just poison using or level draining enemies is easy to counter but mix it up. BG2 MOSTLY did i this well. With PE, there were a lot of fights only about a dozen fights were really worthwhile. In a 50+ hour game with lot of combatthat is pretty sad. Even sadder, despite that, I genuinely find PE's combat fun. But, it could soooooooooooo much more. -
Yeah. Impressive for sure. Last I sww the game they were down like 17ish points with about 7 minutes to go... went to do something else,... then checked all my sports stuff. BANG! Warriors won. L0L Good job. Geez.. This first round is going to have a lot of sweeps and 5 game series. <>
