^ That actually sounds like it could be pretty fun! Especially the first setup since I actually like a bit of micro. 3 casters is perfect for me. Or 2 casters and a micro heavy melee (rogue, monk, certain glass canon builds). There's a zillion great one handers available and tidefall allows for it's own great healing especially when paired with healing 2-3 camping bonus and a healing bonus item. And it might actually be good to have support spread out over multiple characters so I can get more support off at once and I don't have to worry so much about keeping the priest alive. And minus a priest means plus CC and/or DPS. I've never had a cipher in my party. The only class I haven't done yet so that'll add a little novelty for me.

What are some good strategies to do a play without a priest? I just find them really boring because the only good thing you can do with them is keep dropping supporting spells with the occasional dps and debuff. Or maybe that's just Durance and there's some more versatile builds for priests? I find chanters, druids, and paladins a lot more interesting, versatile, and fun to play. All I can think of off-hand to help make up the difference are scrolls of valor, potions of merciless gaze, beloved spirits for the chanter and moonwell from the druids, nature's mark druid debuff, rings of unshackling, and to use the paladin and chanter in a way more focused towards party buffs. If it means anything the highest difficulty I've played is hard.

I certainly hope so. I loved the Baldurs Gate and Icewindale series, but ever since that era I think there's been a drought of good RPGs in that vein since. I'm excited about this one is way I haven't been excited about a video game in many years. Mostly, I was worried about my GPU because my computer is kind of old by computer standards, it was low end for even the time, and my gpu is my computer's weakest link.

Okay, as the title says this is a will my PC meet minimum specifications. I got a low-mid range laptop about 2.5 years ago. Here are the specs: HP Pavilion g7-2325dx Notebook PC Product Specifications 4GB DDR3 SDRAM (1 DIMM) 1.9GHz up to 2.8GHz AMD Quad-Core A8-4500M Accelerated Processor AMD Radeon HD 7640G Discrete-Class graphics and up to 2029MB total graphics memory
