Same issue, seems like a new problem with the DLC/update.

Soooo the next time Ashly Burch is in the studio for you guys, can you get her to re-record the line so she actually says "Yeah-huh?" (or "Yuh-huh?") It's... a little thing, I know, but she says it all the time when you open up dialogue with her, and it'd be so easy to fix. Maybe I'm the crazy one for noticing, but whatever. Those who don't ask, don't get, right?

Or just dismiss your party members, or shoot the Chairman.

Tinkering costs always start out at the lowest cost for any weapon regardless of the level it is when you get it, so you're probably better swapping off swapping out for a weapon with a higher base level at some point, and leveling that one up. Unless you've got a unique you really like, I suppose. Science does cap the cost of tinkering with science weapons to 200, regardless of level.

+1 for holding to TTD in particular, though I wouldn't mind the option for sneaking and sprinting as well.

SAM and Max, freelance mech, priest.

On the one hand, putting Adelaide is what I wanted to do, and I like that you can't totally smooth things over between her and Reed. On the other hand, just leaving him to wander into the woods to die like a sick cat, while apropos, feels like a bit of an oversight. It'd be one thing to choose to do it, because he was really running that whole settlement straight into the ground, but I have a ship now, right? Would've been great if you could bring him aboard. He wouldn't have to say much, he could just hang out in a corner or something. But you could drop him off on Groundbreaker or (god forbid) Monarch or something. It's a minor thing, it barely matters, and I realize it's not really a high priority with everything else that got cut. But I always liked those little aftermath details. Captain Kirrahe down in the drop bay and all that.

Were either Felix or SAM affected by the glitch where one of them is considered dead in your journal? Just curious. This seems like your best bet at the moment:

A soft lock means you can't advance the game, but you're still able to play it, move around, do other things, etc. I can imagine there could be a bug where you blocked off progress by choosing certain options, I think the bug on Monarch is something along those lines. But it's not just any speech check. Most of them definitely do work.

Yeah, they're separate buttons on PC. Sounds annoying.

I'd actually appreciate the option to set the resolution on any kind of text or logo separately in any game, but yeah, it would be great if you turn down the resolution elsewhere and keep it relatively crisp when reading terminal screens.

I think for me she actually fell into the pit where you get one of the science weapons (the mind control ray, I think) in the secret Rizzo lab under Cascadia, but I didn't realize it had broken her quest at the time since she popped back to life when I went down the next hall. Chalked it up to experience, didn't affect anything else on my run. I could even still do the quest itself, her date with Junlei and everything, so the only real issue was the ending slide.

I mean, you put the war effort ahead of keeping people alive, so the war continued. It seems to follow a kind of logic to me.

They're working on it, according to the sticky. I had this too.

Had this too. Sending your companions back to the ship also fixes it, though I would like to have known what they might've said after that. Not that there was much left. Would've helped a lot to have them for that big robot, though. I got through it, but I brought Parvati and Nyoka in heavy armor for a reason.

Managed to convince Anton Crane of the error of his ways. I'd heard he could potentially kill himself out of guilt, but I ran into him purely by chance in the Lost Hope, where he said he'd left Roseway with Cassandra and sold the research and was going to do something else with his life. ...Except much later that same playthrough, I went back to Roseway looking for marauder armour, went back into the comms room just to see if I'd forgotten anything, and found his body on the floor. So unless Lilya Hagen is onto something, that's, um, probably not right.

Same here.

IIRC this only started after 4.1 or so -- after city encounters started working again. Running into random encounters in Neketaka seems to work again now, but after running into one, your location is reset to the district you started from, rather than where you hit the encounter. Relatively minor, probably only a problem in Eothas's challenge, but still. Is this happening to anyone else?

This still seems to be happening, just a heads up.

This only happened as of 5.0, as far as I can tell. This isn't much of a laptop, but I do get slowdown and audio distortion during dialogue -- Woedica's book, Eothas at Hasongo, the gods speaking to you at sea. It's odd because I don't have the same problems in-game, ie. the parts where I'd expect to see the most issues.

Daggers tend to be more accurate, crit harder/more often, and qualify for sneak attack where larger weapons don't. They're also cheap, disposable, easily concealable, able to be thrown... How well that balancing actually works varies, but they're viable. I think the thing to remember, though, is that this still beta. I'd like to see roundless turns as well, but it's going to take some time to implement and tune. Action points would be nice, but a ton of work to actually balance, I think. So more than that I'd like to see better AI on engaging enemies and, in the same vein, I do think tick-based spells are doable, and that a similar approach could help with weapon attacks: rather than just a single attack per round, calculate a series of attacks based on your weapon(s) and Dex. It doesn't have to tick down or be interruptible -- basically just have it be a single DPS calculation, applied all in one action.

Confused in POE is different from what most people think of from other games. It doesn't mean they'll target each other directly (that's Charmed), but rather that all their abilities affect both allies and enemies. It's also -5 to Int, so useful against casters.

I generally avoid AOEs in town, even in RT. Although really, NPCs should stop moving in real time while there's a fight on in turn-based mode.

Are you using the Delay Turn function? You kind of have to to make the most of interrupts in TB mode. To the devs -- I feel like the turn-based UI is a little on the small side. I appreciate the attempt to integrate it into the usual UI, but I'm wondering if it might not feel better if it was, say, a couple of large buttons attached to the bottom of the turn order listing.

I'm guessing there are a bunch of variables that are set at the beginning of the game that are slightly different between RT and TB modes, and that it would just be a ton of extra work to create a system that can check them all and set them correctly in mid-game without the risk of breaking something else and not knowing what or how. This is still beta for now. Switching between the two on the fly, if it ever happens, is probably a ways off.
