Random video game news
I dunno.... I didn't get that feeling from GTA. The equivalent would be having to gas up your car. San Andreas you could be fat/skinny/buff but it wasn't done in a realistic way. I can't really think of anything realistic about GTA. However, I wouldn't be surprised if the next GTA had you gassing up your car Edit: I didn't see you also quoted the second half. Yeah I guess the world is open... But the story is not... Which is half of what I think an open world is

The only thing that I hated about RDR2 was that it was "ultra realistic" for cleaning yourself and your horse... You had to eat and bathe... Yet you could get shot in the head 5 times and be alright. Imo there was a huge disconnect between combat and the rest of the game.... Also the missions were extremely linear,. If you diverge from the plan whatsoever the mission failed... Which I think is the only real knock against its openness

Can the camera rotate, or is it fixed?
Theonlygarby replied to handsy's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)To each their own but I much prefer the static camera. In my experience the rotating camera is always a little janky. The environments look so much better in deadfire than crpgs with rotating camera

So who are the writers of Avowed?
I have it and have been meaning to play. I think the only thing that has held me back is no combat and also I'm really bad for restarting because I didn't meet some speech check... And that game is all dice rolls... I know it's a game where failing can be more interesting than succeeding but it still bothers me 😛 i really should play it though

So who are the writers of Avowed?
Yeah it's not perfect but I can't think of many games that are way better. I find it odd when people say something is bad but can't give examples of what is good. Also I'm desperately looking for well written games.

Aw but I wanna know why you quoted me was it mean? I hope it was mean

So who are the writers of Avowed?
What games are better writing wise? I'm not even trying to argue I just want to play these games.

Status Effects on Supernova what where they thinking?
They probably did it just to make you mad

What Are You Playing Now: Gaming Lives
Hey guys I got laid! Just kidding, I've been playing skyrim. I LOVE how everyone tells you their job very awkwardly. "I'm the steward to blah blah it sure is a hard job". Generally I feel guilty be a psychopath in video games, but Skyrim is so lifeless I feel none. Hurray

I am disappointed....
Theonlygarby replied to ABSofficial's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)It was my first real CRPG ... Haven't been able to find anything I enjoy nearly as much. Tried Baldur's Gate but I feel like it needs nostalgia I just don't have for it.

What Are You Playing Now: Gaming Lives
That's true. Just that this game even has Ship, sinking/falling ship, beach all in the exact order DOS2 had is especially weird.
-
What Are You Playing Now: Gaming Lives
It's weird that they chose to have DOS2 and Baldur's Gate 3 start basically the exact same. Start on a ship as a prisoner, ship goes down, wake up on a beach. I can't tell if it was on purpose? Or maybe they didn't realize how similar they are. Either way I can play about 20 minutes then I stop caring. Not sure exactly what it is about larian games that bores me so much.

Baldur's Gate 3 - the 2nd thread
I'm not a big fan so far. Feels a lot like DOS2 but prettier(which was never my issue with the game). Although the dialog parts where it shows your character "speaking" or thinking make me laugh... It reminds me of fallout 4 with the voiceless protagonist mods.... Just an awkward pause with a close up on your characters face, then back to the other character talking.

Microsoft buys Bethesda
But he was employed by multiple companies before the accusations... So does it really make him less hireable? That being said, I probably wouldn't hire him because of all the trash talking of former employers. However, that does not seem to be the case.
-
Microsoft buys Bethesda
I think that's kind of missing the point. I'm not a big fan of his personally. But the **** talking isn't what made him lose his job(s) The main problem with the metoo stuff is that the difference between a successful flirt and harrassment really comes down to if the lady likes the guy. Essentially they want you to know if the lady is interested before flirting . This of course is not defending any of the more extreme circumstances

I was jokingly going to complain how I can't handle minor changes and the new forum is bothering me... Looks like someone beat me to it.

Baldur's Gate 3 - the 2nd thread
I like being eased into fantasy games and before even starting the game it's all squid people and dragons.

Has anyone mentioned tyranny?

Baldur's Gate 3 - the 2nd thread
Tempted to get it. I read everyone's pansexual, that's my least favorite style of relationships. Aside from, of course, real life relationships. Anyone want to argue about turn based being better/worse than real time with pause?

Surprised he is using a sharpie, thought for sure he was a crayon kind of guy.

The stupidest rpg companions.
Blasphemy! You can tell him to go away. I think story wise the reason to keep him around is that he knows a lot about the history of the dyrwood and he also knows you're a watcher the second he sees you. He is very useful to someone who knows nothing about his/her current situation. He is an ass though.

How do I disable the game showing details to Steam friends?
Theonlygarby replied to jimnms's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)The trick is to not have any friends. I like to think your character name is very offensive. Something Jim perhaps

Every game in my steam library for 15 minutes before getting bored

Probably in the minority and his build isn't bad but tekehu from deadfire annoyed me a lot
