More trash fights. Great

There is no need for help from the likes of Berath

I do programming as well. And, really, that's why I said planning right from the start. Not that you can plan for everything, but I'd expect this one was a known issue in the industry by know Which doesn't negate the fact that you still need time and money to actually do it, unfortunately… But I can still complain about it in hope of future changes

Actually, in this particular case they can. It's called options. I understand that you can have toggle options, but there's no way for them to know which ones players want a toggle for prior to releasing the game. For example, some people may like the narrator and most of the companions, but want to toggle specific companions off. Others may like the companions and the narrator but want to toggle the random NPCs etc There's too many possible permutations/preferences for them to make that kind of decisions before the product goes to the public. And depending on how it's coded, adding a toggle could be a very simple change in one location, or it could involve making 500 tiny changes all over the place. Or… you plan for it right from the start and then it will not require 500 changes all over the place. Like “tagging” voices or something. It isn't exactly rocket science. Well, since the game is long past that stage… who knows. I'd like to know whether it would be easy to do with Pillars codebase or not, though.

Because, surely, anyone who doesn't like what you like is a snowflake, right? :}

Do you realize that for some that means at major plot points their immersion will be broken?

Called it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Importing. Priestess of Eothas who thinks gods aren't needed. She has an “imaginary friend” who pierces her enemies with pointy things and sometimes blows them up in pieces, who also has a ghostly wolf called Shadow… As for development, that depends on what she learns in the process and what her options would be. Alignment, hmm, well, I guess it is chaotic good. There is a thread with a watercolor portraits tutorial: https://forums.obsidian.net/topic/97149-tutorial-watercolor-portraits-in-the-gimp/

Or maybe that shouldn't be a thing in a setting where everything is soul-powered one way or another. “X is supposed to be mundane” is why we can't have nice things, IMO.

Is that a trick question?

And? I don't think the point requires any further articulation. If something specific confuses you, let me know. That's not what I was talking about, though. You are the one confused here.

And?

The first time it was kind of a backstory. This time not so much. Level reset could be done without killing, and even if the death is required god's hand is unnecessary, IMO.

Linux icons tend to disappear before release on GOG until they have it confirmed that Linux version is actually a thing. Well, GOG is weird like that. EDIT: Although you might want to check GOG support just in case.

Disappointing for a setting where one of the questions is whether the gods have divine mandate or should they. Especially since my protagonist is a priest of Eothas who thinks that gods are not needed. Now you are just kind of inverted Thaos… Maybe that was the intention but I don't like it either way. Waaay too railroady for my tastes. I'll try to ignore it as hard as possible, I guess.

Have faith.

If we are talking about limit resources argument I might say that PoE2 would do fine without ship combat, as far as I'm concerned, and money could be better spent somewhere else Skip button would be nice.

But it doesn't mean the characters will have no real character of their own. The devs certainly can make it that way (as with any other feature, really), but there is no law that states it is impossible to do it right (more or less, I guess).

Alternatively, there will be another thread that will repeat all of the arguments above
