Go and find something that interests you. It's that simple.

Yeah, but that's kind of the problem with D&D wizards, isn't it? After a certain level they become THE dominant class. Everybody else is just there to deal with the obstacles.

One day, Edér gets rabies...

Realms Beyond is the one to watch. It's the rebirth of the fantastic-looking Chaos Chronicles game.

If it is any help -- my understanding is that the thick southern American accent is heavily influenced by the creole speech of the former slave population in the southeast, so in that regard it's a culturally blended mix; not just a dialect of British English.

I for one like 'per rest' abilities. It makes you think more strategically.

Things I like: The voice acting of ambient conversations is a very nice touch. It feels very immersive. Lighting and shadows add a lot of depth to the environment. I really enjoy the level of detail and options in the character creation. Having more interacting ambient characters is always welcome. A few concerns: The multiclass level up progression interface is a little unclear. If I wasn't already familiar with the design goals, I'd probably be confused. It was difficult to find the combat speed slider. The repeated fade out/fade in sequences are tedious. The incentive for me is to max up specific skills rather than spreading out the points, but with two skill points per level up, it doesn't feel like I have much option in the skill progression. Changes in art style between the OM, tactical view, and intercity block transit is a bit jarring.

Subtle.

Yes, the SoZ OM was better. This one is more akin to the OM in Wasteland 2. But the PoE2 OE does the job just fine so no concerns there.

Yeah well, before any season starts your team is tied for first place. It doesn't mean anything at that point.

Load time is still fairly slow with an SSD; not horribly so, but definitely not speedy. The fade in/fade out is also pretty sluggish.

Meanwhile, the Chinese are confused over the matter, and who can blame them? https://www.nytimes.com/2018/05/02/world/asia/chinese-prom-dress.html

Somewhere there's an intelligent hilt looking for the right sword.

That sword needs a masculine equivalent named Captain Redbeard Rum.

Yeah, consumables would be more useful if they were per rest, rather than single-shot. For example, establish a supply order with an alchemist that gets refilled each rest. (Possibly you need to provide them an example and some materials first.)

Upon release, I'm expecting the RPGCodex will melt down into a steaming pile of radioactive bilge. But the game should be good.

Yes but do the pets consume food supplies? Might be a bit of a trade-off there.

I wonder what the requirements are for the sonic bonus?
