Godlike as a subrace?
teenparty replied to Pope's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
The Middle East is in Asia. No ears. Bah! No fun! -
Romance
teenparty replied to Skyleaf's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
Who did you expect to meet in a grand fantasy adventure? Farmer McFarmerson, John Doe and Postman Pat? I'd take Zevran - the ridiculously handsome elven assassin - any day. Furthermore, gay people may not be as rare as you think. Most of them do not wear badges. Bah! No fun! -
I loved it in KotOR2... on subsequent playthroughs. First playthrough and it being a sequel to the original made me expect that all companions are useless anyway so I didn't bother gearing anyone I wasn't using. Boy did I pay for that. They could have given us some warning that their might be surprise boss fights for companions. I loved it though. It gave it that A-Team vibe. Bah! No fun!

How do you tell the difference between a butch elf and a skinny human death-godlike? Bah! No fun! -
I miss the freaks
teenparty replied to Lord_Mord's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
I agree. Torment probably has some twisted and strange companions. I have not played the beta. Don't tell me! Bah! No fun! -
Wendersnaven...
teenparty replied to Leeuwenhart's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
There were plenty of Wendersnaven in Pillars of Eternity. There were one lady in Brackenbury. Two older guys in Heritage Hill. Most were in Twin Elm. If you speak to all of them, you get a special item. Bah! No fun! -
Have you noticed any literary references in PoE? I think Rymrgand's quest is a nod to "Entropy" by Thomas Pynchon. "Entropy" tells the story of a couple who are scared of universal heath death. Therefore, they shut themselves inside their apartment and put the heater on full. The story ends when they break the window, allowing the heat of the room to escape.

Romance
teenparty replied to Skyleaf's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
And it is completely un-noteworthy because the manner it was done was as a ret-connable choose-your-own-adventure backstory for a long-dead ghost which lasts for 5 minutes during the last legs of the game. She could be your sister, your lover, your senior that you looked up to, someone you betrayed etc. This for me had no emotional impact. Uuuuuh ... isn't choice a good thing? You get to decide the connection that would be most meaningful to you. I get that it's short, but that did not ruin it for me. There are a lot of blanks to fill in. It reminds me of the romance in Torment, though the ghost lady is a very different character from Iovora. -
Romance

I don't know if someone has mentioned this, but Pillars 1 had one romanceable character, namely Iovara. It is quite touching. You can even decide if it is a happy or unrequited romance.
