In my experience they both work the same, but the new row is much better for being more readable

Where did you buy the game from? Steam, Gog, Microsoft store, somewhere else? Is your computer giving you an error message when you try to play the game?

The way Deadfire is set up, you can mod a lot of stuff to do with numbers and text and so on, and if you can draw you can mod in custom icons, but when it comes to models you can't add anything that isn't already there (that I know of) without having access to the actual development tools. Sadly, as there isn't a skull helm in the game, you wouldn't be able to get a modded one. Your evil undead could always be maybe an evil Death Godlike...

I've tried a few things and I think the spiritshift forms may just be plain unable to have weapon proficiencies. The status effect which changes you (Spiritshift_Stag_SE_ChangeForm) includes a section where you add abilities to the spiritshift form, but adding the proficiency in there does nothing. You can just add a passive Haymaker ability to the spiritshift but I don't think it could be turned on or off

How would people know Deadfire has unintuitive mechanics when they didn't buy the game, meaning they didn't play the game, meaning they never experienced the mechanics in the first place?

In the code for the attack, where it says "KeywordsIDs" add this in: "1ff3caa3-e731-4c31-96b4-e03c300e3f3c" That's the "Unarmed" keyword, it looks like the Haymaker ability applies the bonus to attacks that have it. Remember and put a comma and space after the keyword that's already in there, so that bit should look like this: "KeywordsIDs": [ "a39ed49e-b2d2-4d64-90cb-faaedf80dce3", "1ff3caa3-e731-4c31-96b4-e03c300e3f3c" ], Hope that helps!

They're integrated, as in you play them by finding new locations in the main game once the DLC is installed. They're not separate like, say, the Far Cry DLCs where it's a separate adventure set on Mars or whatever

They don't disable achievements, I've been playing with mods since basically release

Feed Shark Soup to everyone in your party to be safe from her worst attacks, lower her defenses by killing the smaller spiders while avoiding her like the plague, and gang up on her when her defenses are low enough to land a hit. I'll pray for you!

That's nuts, Witcher games are full of direct references to each other and the books. You can pretty much grasp it- you're a monster slayer, slay monsters, go on a quest for the emperor- but the first time player is going to be saying "I wonder who Yennefer is, I wonder who Ciri is, I wonder what the Wild Hunt is" etc. Deadfire doesn't assume anywhere near that level of background knowledge

Most of the abilities on unique items are nothing but positive. I can think of like half a dozen that have a negative effect associated with them

Ooh I'm installing this one right away. I'm always happy to get more banter. Thanks!

There's a mod for backgrounds: https://www.nexusmods.com/pillarsofeternity2/mods/232 it makes all backgrounds available for all cultures during character creation Cultures, I'm not sure about. It looks like you should be able to search Characters for the ID# of the cultures you want, then add those cultures to "CharacterCreationValidCulturesIDs" in Global.

I don't think there is a mod but it's easy to make one. Check out the modding subforum if you'd like advice on how to make a mod yourself!

I started a new game and quite liked how it felt, though there is a little dialogue about the Wheel being artificial pretty much right away, which felt like it should have been saved for later in the main quest. It's vague enough that it doesn't give too much away, at least. I'm not sure how I feel about the implication that the gods' squabbles are basically play acting for the PC's benefit, but it's at least an interesting idea. Also interesting is the implication that Woedica has plans, and Eothas's misgivings about it at the very end. I wonder if that was just to add some shades of grey to the whole thing, or if there are plans for a sequel building off these ideas. I guess we'll see!

Maia has dialogue suggesting he'd just shrug off cannon fire, for the benefit of anyone considering that after watching him shrug off a volcanic eruption. The Godhammer looks pretty unwieldy from the DLC flashback, and it isn't clear that'd even work

It kind of makes sense- If someone did all the megabosses it must be because they like fighting megabosses, so give them a really tough final boss to test their mettle on. If someone skipped the megabosses then they'd probably appreciate the end boss not being so tough.

I predict it'll feel a lot better as part of a new game- make a habit of checking the book at sea after doing a major quest and Woedica will make the gods feel that bit more present outside of the main quest

Yeah, the original spell is wizard only so you'll need to mod that too- just copy the spell data into your mod folder and make any needed changes. Simplest way would probably be to just change the ClassID to 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000, which would make it so any class can use it- changing the ClassID to Cipher class would make it so wizards can't use it otherwise. If that doesn't work, you can also give your copy a new ID, make it cipher-only, and add that to the progression table

The ability The Last Megaboss seems to add these: +9 Accuracy +9 All Defenses +1 AR x1.25 Damage x1.25 Healing +1315 Max Health +1 Pen I haven't fought the boss yet, but it sounds like each of the above is multiplied by the number of megabosses you haven't beaten. Whew!

Do you have any mods installed? The gears turning thing has happened to me usually when the game has had trouble with the text strings in a mod.

Jobs suck and a president who creates more of them them is not worthy of my vote. Yang Gang.

They said in January that the team was very small now, which is to be expected 8+ months after the release of a single player game. So yeah, I'd expect the team that's left is busy

I would simply give the +3 Con belt to another character.
