    Also, Bester, I know we all share a common hatred for the Memorials, but is there any chance you could restore the deleted/changed Memorial as a core part of the mod? The tears of insane SJW everywere that just can't possibly use the mod when it includes such "transphobia" would nourish all thinking people everywhere, I think.

    As a core part - no, because I need memorials to be exposed for other purposes. As a module - it's already been made. http://www.nexusmods.com/pillarsofeternity/mods/28/

     

    The reason I exposed the memorials is to allow people to rewrite them so they'd fit the lore, if there are any such enthusiasts. Now that it's been done, I can't just "lock" the content of one entry.

     

    As for SJW lunatics, I just don't have enough enthusiasm to make special mods just for them, they're already getting more attention than they deserve. During 524 version, the limerick was at the bottom of the screen as Sensuki said, and in that time, there was only one sjw at nexus who got mildly butthurt over it. As you can see, SJWs don't actually play PoE, cause it's a heavily hetero-male oriented game. 94,6% visitors of the iemod site are male.

     

    And how would you know this? Do you ask them for their ID and sexual preference?   :getlost:

  2. One way or another, Obsidian has lost value with me. How could I ever defend them from their reputation as a buggy developer when, even if they were 100% truthful

     

    1: They had super sloppy vetting process (I'd really like to see the guidelines it went by released publicly)

    2: A genocide advocat on Twitter gets more attention than the many remaining critical bugs

    It seems to me that Obsidian still holds value with you or you would have let it go already...

    Obsidian is one of the few companies left still willing to make old school RPGs, both 'SJW' and anti-SJW sides are now detracting from this goal. I hope you all realize what you're doing. EA is probably laughing their asses off. Good job.

    No. This would be a complete non-issue if the bigots hadn't thrown a fit.

    Go read the replies to the other thread. Someone actually vowed to undermine everything Obsidian ever does. The reaction is completely, hilariously, out of proportion.

     

    I have read them.

    Guys, come on. You knew the deal going in when you opted for GOG. Their patching process is dog slow. You can't whine about your choice now.

    Not really

     

    I'd hazard a guess that more people than not were unfamiliar with differences in the patching processes between the distribution systems

     

    Is it our fault for assuming no difference and not researching it ahead of time? Sure it is

     

     

    There was a thread about it the day before launch asking which people would choose: GoG or Steam. Most went with Steam, largely because of the faster patching.

  5. I'm loving this game, I only read the forums after getting home from work or when I'm taking a break from hours of playing. Won't have to go back to work until wednesday, guess what I'll be doing?  :dancing:  True, there are a few things I don't like all that much, like the rest and engagement system, but there is nothing that really aggravates me. Still didn't encounter any bugs or I just didn't notice, I don't care about stats as long as I can survive combat. Here's hoping there will be some expansions and sequels in the future.

  6. It depends on what effort you're willing to put in and your playstyle. Personally I think BG2 (original) is the best of the three so far, after playing that I never went back to BG1. But I haven't played all of PoE yet so this could still change. I'm a fan of the D&D ruleset though and wizards and sorcerers in BG2 are fun. I don't like them as much in PoE even though the cipher is a good alternative for the sorcerer, but that's personal preference really. Oh, and nothing beats Irenicus (BG2).

     

    To make BG2 a little more playable (the widescreen mod is a must) google for bg2 mods and there's bound to be a page saying which ones are a must have. If you really can't be bothered with that then the Enhanced Edition is an option (I don't like it because I find the NPC's they added not that great and some of the mods I like don't work with it). As a new player you may like the modern features of the EE better.

     

    BG1: low level cap, lots of wandering in the wilderness, not as epic as BG2

    BG2: huge city area, nice story line, good expansion (ToB), Irenicus, high level cap, godlike spells, godawful romance for women

    PoE: modern game, different combat system (not D&D), can't tell if it's better than BG2 yet until I've finished it, since it's new it's more expensive but buy it anyway to support Obsidian so we can get more sequels  :yes:

  7. How can I review the game when  haven't played more than a 3-4 hours yet!

    Those people who instantly gave the game a 9 or 10 with cero hours of play, or one hour of play are being just as silly as those who gave the game a 1 after the same amount of play.

    you don't rate stuff based on your own bias, or your own wishes, it's bad and it makes the "score" useless.

     

    I will rate the game when I've PLAYED it enough to give my 10c, not before.

    That's up to you, I've played it for 8+ hours so far and I love the game, there's a good chance I will continue to love the game the longer I play. Same as with DA:I which I didn't enjoy all that much and I continued to not enjoy all that much until the ending. Should this change I will change the score (that's possible afaik).
