[Engagement Mechanics- Problems and Solutions]

I'm probably one of the few people that actually didn't mind AoO in NwN2, after I turned off the party AI that is. It's the beyond horrible AI and pathfinding that made them annoying as they were.

 

As I understand engagement has the same function as AoO - characters can't run away from attacking melee pursuers indefinitely and without any downside, and that attacking characters can't run past your "wall of defense". The second problem I definitely do see in BG2, playing with the SCS mod, and I could see why they would try to fix it.

[DA:I Tactical View combat feedback > IE spiritual successor PoE combat feedback. Can't have that!]

Please don't compare PoE to DA:I, seeing as the latter is clearly an aRPG+romance simulator.

[Show of support for Pillars of Eternity]

It's an improvement over the former, that I'm sure.

[Motionless grass and trees]

I don't know why they were removed either, but if I were to guess it's because they couldn't make it look right and/or time constraints. The movement of bushes and grass in the video looks really awkward and buggy, and I'd rather have it removed than it to look like that.

[DA:I Tactical View combat feedback > IE spiritual successor PoE combat feedback. Can't have that!]

Didn't read thread, nor am I going to, but don't compare the IE games to the disgusting garbage that is DA:I. You should be ashamed FFS.

 

edit: misread title, just seeing DA:I being praised sent me into rage

[Weapon Specialization issue]

I hate the weapon groupings, they don't make sense to me.

[visual wishes]

No I don't mean spell sounds. I don't want over the top shinny NwN2 style spell particles/animations, that clutter the whole screen.

 

 

 

 

 

 

[visual wishes]

My wish is that they don't go overboard with spell FX.

[Sensuki's Suggestions #025: Backer Beta Version Review v301 bb]

They changed it because when the teaser first came out there were a LOT of complaints about the characters standing out too much from the background.

[Companion Portrait Consistency]

Stumbled upon this beautiful portrait on deviantart, and decided to try a bit of photoshop magic(didn't ask for permission ).

 

I might use it for my first playthrough.

[Delayed to early 2015]

Does everything really need to award the same xp? Might as well not have xp then, and have level ups on certain points.

[No AI behavior scripts?]

Don't need scripts, just standard attack.

[Sensuki's Pillars of Eternity Feature Wishlist]

nvm

[Sensuki's Pillars of Eternity Feature Wishlist]

I'm still watching it, but wow, you actually got voice+music right.

[List of Prios to Fix until the Early 2015 Release]

The more different xp gains the better, I don't care where it comes from.

[Sensuki's Let's Play Icewind Dale]

 

It surprised me that some of the new things IWD2 offered didn't make it into BGEE (first thing which comes to mind is the much improved quick weapon slots, something that PoE has at least :D).

 

That's because BG:EE is basically just an installation of BGTutu with a bunch of mods. IIRC, virtually all of its new technology is stuff that was developed on the major modding sites, with various more-or-less minor updates.

 

And since Weimer's Icewind Gate flickered out in early development like a decade ago ... yeah.

 

That's not true, the enhanced addition runs way smoother and I'm glad I bought it. The easily reconfigurable key bindings+improved inventory is a big plus as well.

[List of Prios to Fix until the Early 2015 Release]

I would pay to see item sketches.

[List of Prios to Fix until the Early 2015 Release]

Obsidian asked for feedback, and they(we) are giving it. I don't see your point.

[Fixing Path Finding]

I hope they tone down creature size, those giant wolves look esp. silly.

[List of Prios to Fix until the Early 2015 Release]

How significant is this chanter healing aura?

 

@morhilane woodskin+nature's balm+moonwell+garden of life, sounds good to me. I don't like these AoE buffs in this game anyways.

[List of Prios to Fix until the Early 2015 Release]

From what I've heard druids get a few healing spells and chanters don't have any? I was thinking of having a druid+paladin in the party to replace the healing of a priest.

 

edit: typo

[List of Prios to Fix until the Early 2015 Release]

I have to say that the classes need a lot of work. I really hate per encounter abilities, esp. interdiction.

1. Paladin - the only class that feels right
2. Fighter - not bad, but don't go overboard with the actives
3. Cipher - a lot of potential
4. Monk, Barbarian - could be good
5. Rogue - too many actives, kind of a mess right now
6. Wizard - a butchered class
7. Priest - I really hate them right now, everything's AoE
8. Ranger - meh

No clue about Druids and Chanters. I might just make a druid PC, just so I don't have to take a priest.
