Keeping enemies engaged?
the_dog_days replied to Brimsurfer's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
Did I say you were min/maxing? My point was that pure tanks aren't viable, and using twiner builds, for everybody in your party, is the best way to get engagements to stick (or rather, keeping mobs from spamming disengagement abilities to race right for your back line). Not an infallible way, but the best. Engagements aren't meant to make mobs stick so much as giving font liners an extra attack. -
Keeping enemies engaged?
the_dog_days replied to Brimsurfer's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
@OP:this is the thing to keep in mind, pure tanks were nerfed. The best way to get an attacker to 'stick' to a tank is to give him some DPS, avoid min/maxing the other companions, use crowd control skills, and give all your squishies disengagement abilities so they can break engagement. -
Pokémon Coke and Pokémon Pepsi. Cool, so long as I get to hunt the Pokémon for sustenance.

I never understood what was supposed to be so scary about a pompadour. Tattoo for each prison shank = scary. Bleach blonde pompadour = colorblind Elvis impersonator. -
Why do people watch/love "Let's play..." videos?
the_dog_days replied to Heijoushin's topic in Computer and Console
This. I don't often watch more than a few episodes of a Let's Play because I'm usually looking for a game to buy and I don't want any huge spoilers. -
I just finally finished DAI. Played on nightmare and still one-shot 7 of the 10 dragons (to be fair, I spected my character to do exactly that). I would've one-shot all the main bosses except that you can't because plot (dang BioWare with there 'cut bosses HP to 1/3 and cut scene, cut bosses HP to 1/2 and cut scene, and cut bosses HP to 2/3 and cut scene narrative). Still, I did get to take out the half that was left of the final bosses life with one hit (after the last combat interrupting cut scene) while he was in the middle of boasting. (The combat in this game is about as deep as a puddle.) Over all, I'd give the game 6/10.

Or they could double down and do "Two Ghouls, One Fridge". **** that. This time there's an entire ghoul family in a fridge. Yep, you open it up and they poor out like a freaking clown car. Then they all wanna look for the youngest sibling of the family, who has spent 200 years looking for them. Their son is a mirelurk now because reasons. Or they could just go BioWare with the world in a fridge. Shepard: Clearly, in a galaxy with trillions of sapient lifeforms, I'm the only person who can save civilization.

I love the way he makes the distinction in the title. Kinda tells you where we are as a society. XD

What genre of game are you looking for? I'm currently playing Styx the master of shadows, which is a stealth game (in the original sense: you're sneaking because you suck at combat) and it plays well with a controller. The level design is perfect for a stealth game, by the way.

The inside of the mailbox is dark. Your are likely to be eaten by a grue. If it was an Enchanter game, I'd: >Cast Frotz on grue You died of dysentery. -
Steam always releases games and updates around 11 PM central time on the release day. TWM 2 will be the same. Central Standard Time, Central European Time or something else? Central US time. Sorry for not being specific. I believe Steam is located on US west coast and they're employees work banker hours (9AM to 5PM), so they don't do regional midnight releases.

Is Consortium bad game or did it developer screw up something or is there some other reason why it sequel don't interest people? Anybody know or have educated guesses? No, but it is free so I'm going to give it a shot after I'm finished with Shadowrun Returns.

Now if Sony exclusives would stop they're bs.

David Gaider is now the Creative Director of Beamdog
the_dog_days replied to Infinitron's topic in Computer and Console
Am I the only person who liked Dragon Age Origins Awakening? I thought DA2 would've been ten times better if BioWare had expanded DA:O:A (by a lot) and made that the sequel.
