Yeah its about the replay value, if you don't have a reason to play it again, then whats the point? I sure wouldnt like to remove all the challenges and play easy mode for BB. I already beat all the challenges, got nothing, pretty much tossed the game aside and went to play other things. The only thing im interested in is the next DLC. I can only hope it has good content.

Unbroken is useless for players. You might as well read it as +1 engagement + 1 AR IF with shield, then you have all the negatives. That disengagement is useless since enemies don't disengage when they get engaged, and theres no way to force a disengage attack.

Thanks for you offer but i'm fine with not knowing things about games i play and discovering them myself. This is a part of what i pay for. I didn't actually buy Deadfire, for many reasons, but i might do it in the future. Same here man, well its fun when you are still figuring out things. But you soon realize you bought a incomplete sandwich where theres a good chance for the chef to come out the kitchen and take things out of it, and ofcourse put things in it hence the DLC. You may have your lettuce, pickles, tomatoes, onions, and patty, and the buns, but you start to find that the patty was barely cooked (bugs), then some other random (elitist) customer cries that his burger is toooooo good and that they demand that there burger, and everyone elses should be balanced to there likings where its not too good and not too bad, so the chef walks out the kitchen to everyones table and takes the lettuce/ tomatoes off. Right now, your not getting the full experience, because the game just isnt complete, its not solid yet. They are still adding things to it, and fixing it. It currently just has a foundation to build upon.

@hilfazer Sorry not interested in having people watching me play, I'm not much of an entertainer/people pleaser. Besides at my current situation, I would rather not spend money to show maybe a dozen people (in your claim the world) I have skills. Net and Net speed is pretty expensive and slow where im currently at. I'm not gonna upload something that would take a few years, and a couple of my bucks to upload when i could be watching videos, or even buying food Lol. But if you want a few tips on how to get a good head start in the game, I don't mind throwing a few at you. Or questions on how i beat certain things go ahead.

@ Harpagornis That's true, the more you remove the more you restrict players, the more restricts you add, the less fun it gets. Only thing now is if you're playing a solo run in the trial of iron. You have no choice but to pick whats left, because a lot of other combinations been nerfed, and completely destroyed based on my research, and trial and errors. Unfortunately I wasn't able to play BG, I was more into MMORPG's back in the day(WoW), I got introduced to PoE 1 when I moved from the U.S to the PH for college, by my friend. Since Internet in a third world country is terrifyingly slow. Maybe ill try it when i go back in a month since i just finished my degree. Got to see where all the hype is coming from

I feel Modwyr was the best thing that happened to soulbound items. Not all of them have to be about lore, but it would be cool if they had there own personality since it's a "soul"bound item living weapons. I wouldnt mind having a blood thirsty pistol screaming "PEW PEW PEW DIEEEEEEEE!!!!". I really like her sadistic erotic audios when im murdering things. That laugh tho. Yeh maybe it's true PoE 1 had no talking weapons, but thats part 1, ofcourse tech and the kind of resources they have now werent as available. When i got my second soulbound, i was hoping for another cool story... just to find its just another boring normal weapon. I feel like this could have been a new thing. As I said earlier not all of it has to show some lore in the story, they can just have a small side quest with story. Edit: Besides, there arent even that many soulbound items to begin with.

Yeah but this is a offline game, thats pretty odd. I understand MMORPG's but an offline game is different. It's like buying the latest God of War, and then finding out theres a glitch where the last boss doesn't apear and you just beat the game, where you have to wait every month for a bug update. and then some random QQer thinks somethings is too OP, so they remove content from the game. Chanter's aren't OP, theres just a lot of removing, and dulling down of a lot of classes that i found out that they were doing because of the QQer's saying certain combos were tooo OP (OMG JUST DON'T USE IT IF YOU WANT A CHALLENGE!!), these people make it seem like the game is forcing you to play things. Besides, chanters can get screwed over really easily if they get skill cancelled by an enemy, or the enemy (usually rogue) dashes on you and 1 shots you. Now the current state is that, only few classes are viable in POTD, and there is a "must" have subclass combination. If you ask me anything combined with a rogue/pally can beat the game easily due to there infinite DoT skills. All you have to do is place it, hide in the corner and you can beat any mobs, and even any boss that would be impossible to beat in solo, and scream FLAAWWWWLESSSSSSSS VICTORRYYYYYYY. But don't you think thats sad? It's so bad that the players are finding a way to break the game files to make it more fun/ play it in there own liking? Lol - should just be there as an option already.

In POTD, he hits like a truck, beat the game with all challenges. Being paralyzed is pretty much GG WP

Well if you have a rogue, or a pally... Just learn the gouging eye strike (bleed), or brand enemy (burn) then just sacrifice a summon while running you characters far away from the boss so they don't aggro.. Go on youtube for 5 minutes/sip some tea, read the newspaper, and when you come back the dragon probably bled to death.

Try Magrans Challenge with Triple Crown. It's unbearable, not because of difficulty but because of randomly resetting AI settings/Party formation Magrans Challenges are EZ, only unbearable thing is the poop bugs

I think we are all grown adults here though. This is a good example of a real review, being able to express your thoughts in all manners as long as they are honest. If someone doesn't like what they see, they could easily just not look at it, or go away, or even just accept it.

Yeah, thats why I was wondering before why we can't add mods, or use beraths blessings since it was just a personal challenge

So I beat all the challenges at the same time.. Now what? I'm not here to boast, but seriously? Now what? Not even an achievement for beating them, except for a check saying you completed it? What makes me want to play the challenges again? Nothing really, if you ask me. As I said in another post, pointless. If obsidian wants to be so exclusive with its magran fires menu (which makes no sense having a random second menu) They should add specials blessings for each challenge. They should redo the Blessing system, and game options... My Idea, 1. Make the start menu for the new game 1 menu only (Gives players the ability to play what they want c mods too) 2a. Rework Current Blessings, name it something else. E.G Veterans Experience - Since its earned by you playing the game, and earning achievements 2b. Add a new Blessing system, E.G Blessings of the God's unlocked by beating challenges from beating each specific God Challenge. ( Might as well make this a secret menu since beating the challenges is exclusive.) - Atleast let these be used for challenges. My Experience with POE 2 I've done a lot of trial and errors to beat these combined challenges, and to be honest? The only thing that kills me is the bugs in the game, where your moves don't work properly, or my character won't path correctly because a village NPC is walking (while in combat) Honestly I bought the game thinking it was complete. I was so hyped, after being a fan of part 1. Although I like the story, the bugs are aggravating, theres a lot of FPS issues, and so on. For a offline game worth 75 USD, this is pretty disappointing. It really feels like im just playing a beta. You would think they would put more effort, and love in there product before releasing it to the public.. They honestly should have took there time making sure the game was stable before releasing it. The DLC.. Pretty much just a extra quest, was it cool? It was okay, don't want to spoil anything, but they don't affect the story after I did a few evil things. Veerrryyyyy short. The soulbound items... why is there only one that talks? I was impressed with the first one i found, the rest were just boring grind quests, did they run out of budget/ideas to add a few lines from the assorted recycled voices? Removing castle mechanics for boats. Why? Whyyy??? Why not have both? Honestly it was cool to have a ship, but think about it for a second... You only need to upgrade it one time.... why have different boats for options? I would rather they keep the castle mechanic, than the boats. Why can't the watcher rebuild his own castle, or a new one? A new base maybe? I rather have a castle with dungeons, than a boat with lame ship battles where the enemies run away because you have a better ship.. In summary, this game doesn't feel like it was ready to be public. Just my opinion. Hate it or Love it, Thats just how i see the game

Thats what I did, then i killed the cow afterwards

I haven't seen that option, all I know is if you picked everything bad (history) then you trash talked him in nekatakas quest, and tell him your going to kill him, he has a unique question when you meet him which he then asks if you came to fulfill what you said (usher a sword into his face)

I agree, they shouldn't have made this game a continuation, it would have been nicer if the game was a fresh story. If you play it from a perspective where you haven't played part 1, you would be very confused with the storyline since you have no idea what happened in part one. Where most of this game makes A LOT of references to part 1 which is a big flaw.

I want to do it, to teach him a lesson, that its not okay. If I could slay all the Gods in POE i would Lol. They should just rename the game, POE of war

Really? theres a cap for deflection where you will dodge all attacks? May i get the numbers? I would love to have enemies not hit me in my solo on POTD. Feels like they have a 100% hit chance with 50% chance to crit.

Well the problem with whirling strikes is that your only a ranger. This class specializes in ranged attacks, i don't see a reason to run into enemies to use this when you can just tumble away and spam something more useful.

The only class that doesnt get anything good at last tiers is the rangers... they get a rogue move that heals.. (vanish) Thats not impressive at all.

And you can avoid GS completely. I don't think, there will be ever a achievement for GS. It's no bounty or anything. Yeah, you don't even get anything worthwhile

I don't find it that hard, you can also just skip it and go straight to the quest. It's pretty easy to single out enemies. I use a special technique I don't see people talking about much. I call it the baited technique Place a trap in a position where atleast 1 enemy can hear it, and will walk to the sound of the trap, and you can chain this to lure them to a secluded spot where you can just butcher them 1 at a time. The only fight's I find hard is the random small space encounters, with the enemies that for some reason have infinite dash abilities (I play solo) and they will always jump on you, and do a auto crit and murder you. Not to mention theres like 20 of them (exaggerated)

Thats weird, I'm only able to bind f1-f4, just 4 buttons Edit: Nvm, confirmed thanks for the extra info :3

Oh sweet, im about to deliver him his death that I promised in nekataka. Lol (I picked the everything wrong history) I wish someone posted a video of it, so i could see what im about to run into. Gonna fight him on my next play-through

I play POTD Trial of Iron Solo, does anyone actually know if this lets you fight him? Or is it a fake option where he just insta K.O's you? I would rather not want to start the game over because of a false option. and if possible, can you actually win the fight? Would Love to see a screenshot, of video~
