It is. That means if you get a wound you should heal it ASAP or soon you will have more wounds. It means you should always have a healing spell and some herbs ready when you go to combat. Makes sense to me. This is a good way to kill ogres or other enemies with lots of HP but little defense. And just in case: No, I do not suggest adding this system to PoE2. I think it is bad design, personally. In computer-based games at the very least. Those ogres wouldn’t mind getting wounds and die, that’s their role in this game, to appear fresh and to die. You, on the other hand, will have plenty chances to be caught in the spiral of death. It also heavily penalizes those who aren’t good at the game in the first place while potentially doing nothing or not much at all to those who are good which seems countproductive in computer-based game to me. At least at this scale.

I must say that I also liked Drakensang. For those who did not play it: When you got hit and you took more damage than your constitution value, you must make a saving throw with your self control value (not sure about the english name, I played in german) and if it failed you got a wound which lowered all your stats. Sounds like spiral of death.

Sounds, those are good. Random chatter need to be quite diverse for it to work. Listening to the same thing over and over and over is pretty painful: https://forums.obsidian.net/topic/88151-ha-ha-ha-haaaaaaa/

By the endgame we all will be using larder doors and table legs anyway because the only thing that can kill a god is

Is that the one where you need Survival 4 to tell a kid that knife is dangerous? I’m not quite sure how their civilization still exists

Yeah, the idea that you could get a temporary buff/debuff was a sort of compromise between "the lore says its dangerous" and "you can't really kill a player's character off or permanently maim them for what is a gameplay aspect". This penalizes those who want to respec and do want the ability to do so, while doing nothing to those who don’t need it. Why?

Personally, I think single-target sexuality is fine. Although that should be backed up by something. Not “fate plot demands it” but character should match other’s expectations somewhat if not perfectly. Although if everyone and their mom are doing it some verisimilitudes might be broken (I lost mine somewhere, though).

I’m pretty sure the poll is a joke

Shouldn’t Magran be into these things? Unless Eothas is also Magran somehow.

Can we have a mecha plot at the very least? We already have Eyeless anyway.

Not necessarily for laughs. School Days had rather bad end result, I’ve heard.

Well, something subtle, with appropriate voice acting. Whatever that’d mean. I don’t think I need a full-blown Romeo and Juliet drama.

Dunno, it’s a nice image. Mostly

Obsidian made the mistake of adding some anime vibes to their latest companion concept, and it emboldened the weeaboos to crawl out of the woodwork and infest the Pillars fan community with anime culture. I recommend fumigation. You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile. She isn’t even like this yet

Some sort of desert mouse so I can call it “Muad'Dib,” pretty please

So, on the one hand I read here somewhere that Ydwin is Harry Potter (never bothered to read/watch it), on the other we have “so anime, urge to kill rising.” Does than mean Harry Potter is also anime?

As far as I’m concerned class is a meta level construct. Just give me an option to select profession/field of study or something.

Welcome to Internet, leave your sanity away from keyboard TVTropes exists, maybe we should stop writing stories

Captured slime(s).

Hmm…

We already had humongous mechas with souls in WM and now we are starting to talk about anime

Wasn’t there some game like that?

This is why fighters can’t have nice things ☹
