Deadfire on Linux
AeonsLegend replied to Hyster1a's question in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire Technical Support (Spoiler Warning!)
Was it raining in Neketaka? This game is so poorly optimized it makes high end gear act like toasters. With your rig you should be getting 60fps tho. -
If you're going to compare it then best to compare it to later itterations. I mean if you look at DND 3.5 (Neverwinter Nights 2) then char generation is fairly simple, even though there's quite a few base classes. Multiclassing doesn't start at level 1. You can multiclass with a maximum of 4 classes and have to work towards specific prestige classes if you want them by selecting specific skills/feats. There's almost an infinite way to build your character. I mean there's an entire website dedicated to it: nwn2db.com where you can theory craft your character. The way you can craft your character is much much more elaborate than in POE2.

Telling if you can pickpocket is actually quite easy. As long as you can pickpocket it works. If you're detected it simply won't allow you to pickpocket. Detected is when the circle is fully red. If it is still filling up you can pickpocket. You will need a certain amount of pickpocket skill to allow pickpocketing of certain items. There's equipment and potions you can use on your character to increase pickpocket skill.

Ok you're going for that reference, but I was more implying that you decide for other people what's best for them. You'd normally call that a tyrant no matter how benevolent you think you are.

The characters were meh, the story was meh. How on earth is the ending going to be wonderful? I thought it was pretty terrible as a whole. The only thing that keeps me going is the combat and class system. It's like Neverwinter Nights 2 (Also Obsidian lol). Great to theorycraft characters, but story and characters weren't particularly great. Although imo I like NWN2 a lot better than Deadfire. Especially MotB was great.

Am I confusing the debuff? It states takes 5% more damage per point of might. So as long as you have wounds you take 5% more damage per wound right? Screw the self damage. What about enemies hitting you? How much extra damage do you take?

I think classical single player CRPGs as we know them will die out with GenZ. Those people want fortnite and crap like that. Enjoy it while it lasts. Everything will be open world, loot chests, micro transactions and social interactions. That's not to say that there won't be people that want a game like this, but they will be too few for any company to invest in. If it's not going to make a company money they won't build it. I'm not really sure on the demographics, but I have the distinct feeling that games like these are predominantly played by 30-60 year old white males. While we are alive, we will buy the games, but in 20-30 years... who knows. Also marketing and such helps. I recall Fallout 4 vs New Vegas. Even though New Vegas now has some sort of awkward cult following and is deemed to be many times better than Fallout 4. People seem to ignore that New Vegas sold as many copies in the first year as Fallout 4 did in the first week.

It's out of support on PC. It was released 2 years ago and had extensive support during that time. I think the POE development and support team isn't as big as you may think. The first game was built from kickstarter. I think it's great that they were able to push it to 5 major patches. The thing that's kinda confusing is that this forum started as a pure PC focus as that was the only game available. Now that there's PS4 and XBOX out we see more people coming in from consoles. There's no split in this on the forums. I'm also not sure if Obsidian is directly involved in support for consoles as it was ported there and not published by Obsidian. You may have to go elsewhere for support for consoles. Versus Evil? Not sure.

Isn't Blood Mage / Helwalker dangerous because of the extra damage you receive? You may end up killing yourself with your blood sacrifice if that scales off of might. Does it? I think I had this convo before on the helwalker. Since at +10 wounds it would seem it would take +50% extra damage? That would be insane. Imagine getting crit by an armsman...

Yea that whole plot with her made no sense to me. She's much to nice for the way she lives. I mean RDC: me: so you're conquering the deadfire? RDC: that's a naive way of looking at it. me: But you're doing it? RDC: yep go kill the queen
