...you can have pets? I mean, other than classes like druid or ranger can have? Not that I would equip an owlbear even if I had one. Really don't get Owlcat's fascination with them -- they're just so goofy looking, it's impossible to take them seriously as a monster. I mean, just look at this derp face:

I find this very thing amusing in slightly morbid way. Overconsumption and corporate greed doing irreparable damage to planet's climate while virtual intelligences belonging to predatory corporations are fighting to death over precious data on machines of unsuspecting humans - it's cyberpunk. I'm living in bloody science fiction!

Oooh, we're going back in time, I see -- from nineties to eighties now? I am soooo going to spam post when we reach my beloved sixties! Meanwhile, eighties it is.

Don't be ridiculous, Boeroer, you cannot hide in blue cheese, it does not have holes. Perhaps in Emmental or Maasdam.

While I myself have problems with sugar just like yourself, I recall Hoegaarden being pretty tasty the few times I got to drink it. That's exactly why I am sad -- it used to be so tasty for me until it wasn't anymore. I miss that feeling. As for wines, the colour red is obviously the culprit of headaches. Never get them from whites, never get them from black tea that I drink by gallons, only red wine, the redder, the acher. Kinda bummer, since I prefer Shiraz to Cabernet or Merlot, but eh. Totally can do without wines whatsoever (bastards also give me heartburn), just lemme at my beers. Beers can be used for cooking purposes too -- stouts make for super tasty sauce with beef.

Same. Or at least more advanced case with all them fancy coolers, what with summers turning into fiery hell lately.

Welp. Here's hoping it's just someone tossing natural fertilizer into air circulation system for moar clicks. If not, eh. I can wait for a year, no problemo.

Goody! Now all she needs is a dentist, because them teeth are definitely not Aumaua-like

I never finished Amalur; somewhen in the beginning of the last continent I realized that for all the hours I clocked into it I mostly felt bored. That game is colourful and beige at the same time. Anyway, here's my pick of a big gun lady.

I think this dude is of the lot who just cannot leave unless their word is the last. Which wont work because the last one will be mod's anyway, but by all means do proceed.

...well, lad's at least consistent -- as good at leaving as he is at reading.

There is a check for specific upgrades: Dragonwing Sails and Blackwood Hull.Also you need a rank 3+ helmsman and rank 3+ deck hand. P.S. It doesn't matter what ship to use. The OP got Fonferrus, sails and stuff does not matter.

Yes. (you can go alone)

By the way, where is Sonicmage117? Is he okay?

I can understand why Epic rammed into this market like brutal smelly hog, it's very hard to win by playing nice and polite with the ultimate dominant like Steam. I still think this is odious practice that must be awarded with utter failure, alas, life is unfair and when it's about big money it's unfair10. It'd be funny if Epic pulled the stunt popular with telecommunication (and not only) companies, when they enter with dumped prices (or price cuts in this case) to lure clients in and then raise them over time, expecting those clients to stay out of inertia or unwillingness to go through the hassle again.

Heh, same. Played tutorial, realized I really hate movement and combat, quit. Some time after -- "hey, maybe I should try W2 again, kind of want to do them in proper order". Played tutorial, remembered why I didn't proceed past it last time. Quit.

I love loot booty in this game, it's so much more interesting than plain +N to <attribute>. Whenever I get a new shiny it instantly gets me thinking, "Ooooh, I wonder what build I could stick this to" and when I sorted my hoard right after doing all DLCs side by side my biggest wish was for the Watcher to have one hundred arms and ten heads to wield all the weapons and wear all the bling at once.

He's saying the game they are working on is called Top Secret. So it's kind of like turbo epic Alpha Protocol? I'm all for!!!

IPA is kinda situational for me. Feels fancy and refreshing if I've been on generic lagers for a while, but gets old if consumed regularly. I've noticed I'm getting sucrose intolerant in my old age, like, I need less and less sweet stuff and stuff too sweet tastes yucky. Meaning I cannot enjoy Hoegaarden no more, too sweet. Franziskaner still easy on them tastebuds, though. If this summer is going to be as hellish as the last one, it will be my saviour.

Also relevant:

Oh! Ooooh! Are we showing MMO alts? I have a lot of them in SWTOR! Here's a selection:

First, Deadfire. Second, I always feel like I'm communicating with a sentient being from the parallel dimension whenever someone puts Kingmaker's writing over, well, anything of Obsidian's (or Troika's, Bioware's and even that janitor's who writes for Bethesda). Because...how? It is blandly adequate at its best and at its worst (looking at you, Ophelia and Ragnarok) it's like written by someone who never actually bothered to read anything in the first place. Also Tekehu has plenty of development, Serafen is , even somewhat bland Maia has more personality than all P:K's cardboard cutouts stashed together, the NPCs are, like, from entirely different league (like, Atsura or Tayn versus This Whatsisname Cleric and That Dude With a Sword), the gods are better, the paladins are incomparably better, fight me irl.

I see what you slipped in here Anyway, I agree with most stuff you wrote, especially about cities -- for me is not a proper RPG without a city. Dungeons, eh, you saw one, you saw'em all, but cities are where's fun at. But yeah, the game has certain charm and me going for a replay despite of bland setting, bad to meh writing and assorted annoyances is a testament to that. Also, playing as a spellcaster is not much fun -- the setting seems to be inhabited by oddly willful (even the mangiest flea ridden wolf can dodge spells like a professional demilich ) but somewhat clumsy creatures so eventually all my casting was mostly mass freedom of movement and plop Webs everywhere. But guess what those suckers cannot dodge? Bombs. And what's better than a bomber in a party? Two bombers in a party! So yeah, grenadier is fun and so is being Lawful Evil -- plus I got better town music and design, complete with the gibbet (empty so far, here's hoping to remedy that). I don't think I'll finish the run proper though, different ending slides isn't worthy to suffer through the House again. And I can always go with my headcannon, where Charname and Jubilost clean out kingdom's treasury before leaving that swampy arse of the world to have adventures in more exciting places.

Owlcat's forums is a dry desert with an occasional tumbleweed of some insubstantial post lazily tumbling past at infrequent intervals, and its wiki is a graveyard of abandoned stubs. It's telling when the most substantial information on the game can be found of Reddit of all places. That ability can be very well bugged because why not, a lot of other things are. My own most fun thing to use were Jubiliost's bombs, that guy was such a mean little murder machine. I loved bombs so much I'm thinking on building me a Grenadier. Will name him Guvnor and make him Lawful Evil because I really want to do mean things to everyone* and everything in the game. *(except Jubilost, he's alright)

Disclaimer: not to tell professionals of their field how to do marketing here, just an observation (with a dash of "O, tempora! O, mores!") Indie title from two-dev team "Dawn of Man" hit #1 on Steam and they attribute their success largely to influence of Youtubers. There is also Frictional Games of "Soma" and "Amnesia" fame. Soma, while being arguably a better game -- smarter, more polished -- did not sell as well as "Amnesia", which again was very popular among youtubers. ...I have mixed feelings about this. On the one hand, I loathe the fact that something as obnoxious as Pewdiepie can influence what sells and what not. On the other hand, the horde of insipid lemmings that worship these harbingers of Idiocracy do not deserve to have money and making them part with it benefits whole civilization so they can -- and must be exploited without remorse.
