Is Ydwin yandere or tsundere?
PK htiw klaw eriF replied to Rekombo's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Seeing the asshurt anything vaguely animeish induces, I hope Ydwin is a distillation of all anime tropes into one character and half the game is the plot of a harem anime.

Whats the Chance we reach all the stretchsgoals ?
PK htiw klaw eriF replied to CaesarCzech's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Something to keep in mind is that with Kickstarter you could give just a dollar so it's likely when the mega dungeon was announced at least some of the backers were $1 donations to inflate the amount of levels. While something similar could have happened with Fig, the minimum of $5 probably hamstrung a lot of that and I'd wager a higher % of Fig backers are not alts of existing backers. Still that leaves us with about 1.84 mil less from backers when compared to Project Eternity, with investors floating a lot more of Deadfire. I suppose some were wary of Fig and some wanted Paypal anyways, but it's going to be hard to say how many end up using paypal or slackback in time to meet any stretch goals.

Revamped Spellcasting Mechanics?
PK htiw klaw eriF replied to Dark_Ansem's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)I believe all abilities are per-encounter and there's a new per-rest resource called empower that boosts the power of abilities by 3 levels. So a 5th level wizard can toss 1 fireball per-encounter and use empower that makes it deal damage like a 8th level wizard. There's also talk of a revamped health system but I don't know much about it.

Any chances to see oriental weapons like in BG2?
PK htiw klaw eriF replied to helmino's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Katanas were **** in most DnD cRPGs. Either they require a special feat for a measly 2 potential max damage or pips for a type that is really rare and the best vanilla is a +4 with some immunity. Saber already takes the mechanical place of Katana in PoE and I'll settle for sabers that can compete with swords or axes rather than a super katana that I unsheath before teleporting behind kids. Shruiken or polearms would be better if we're talking oriental weapons anyways, but we need Knight to get something else first.

1-handed sword only, as viable choice of combat
PK htiw klaw eriF replied to Oter2k's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)I believe it gets an accuracy bonus which translates into more crits if I understand the system. Not as useful as two-handers in practice, but that's because of the DT system.

Stretch goal discussion!
PK htiw klaw eriF replied to TheisEjsing's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)There's more with the way they calculate investments and a delay on counting pledges. Not to mention they'll continue increasing the total with slacker backers(or whatever they'll call it) and PayPal which I believe a lot of our European or Australian friends use. I'll be impressed if they hit 5 mil, but I'd say there's an extremely good chance of hitting 4.5 mil.

Your DVD/Blu-Ray collection.
I just stream or download stuff. Let's be honest, almost everyone has and no one pays for that stuff.

Politics 2017 Part 3
I'll do all 3, the People's Republic of California is pushing transexual surgery for poor people in order to further the National Bolshevik agenda of pushing middle class white families off the beach. Will not accept anything but academic sources or Breitbart as evidence against this.

Politics 2017 Part 3
It's a treatment of last resort for people diagonsed by multiple health professionals. Honestly if it wasn't for muh tranny degeneracy and something like say treating bipolar disorder or whatever then we wouldn't have had 3 pages about it. And to get down to brass tacks, trans are like what, less than 1 percent of the population? So a minority of that percent that is too extreme to treat with the various other treatments and the minoroty of that minoroty who works for the California goverment will have their treatment paid for in their benefits package. As far as **** being done by state governments, I find this much less of an issue than paying for cops to harass people or the payrolls of elected officals to **** hookers have meetings with various corporate interests, both in magnitude and taste.

#Deadfire Q&A Twitch Stream with Josh Sawyer and Lead Designer Bobby Null
PK htiw klaw eriF replied to Aarik D's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire Announcements & NewsHow, if at all, are chanters and ciphers going to be changed with the move to per-encounter abilities with empower(or whatever the per rest resource is)? There was a thread on the forums about how the "evil" actions netted more permanant attribute bonuses than "good" actions for quests. Will there be an attempt to balance this out, not taking into account powergaming for all attribute bonuses? IIRC, the weapon group Knight in PoE had one weapon less than the other groups, will you add a new weapon in to balance this? Will we be able to the starting class for companions with two base class options, like select whether Eder is a rogue or fighter? Multiclassing will result in a class power level that is roughly class level + ((char level-class level)*. IIRC. For spellcasting classes will this affect spell slots and spell level, so that a 10Fighter/10Wizard has the same amount of spells as an 18 Wizard? Or will it just affect caster level? With a level cap of 20 will we see 10th level spells? If there is an expansion, will 20+ be similar to the epic levels of D&D 3.x with epic feats and such?

Politics 2017 Part 3
Even if it literally costs a fraction of a cent to you, as an individual taxpayer? It's the principle. If it costs a penny, I WORKED for that penny. I earned it. Every dollar someone gets without working for someone else worked for without getting it. I'm glad that your principles are so important to you that you feel personally offended if a fraction of a cent of your tax money goes toward helping people who have been diagnosed by multiple licensed professionals who agree that their symptoms literally can't be alleviated in any other way. I mean, those fancy-ass psychiatrists might consider the treatment to be necessary, but by God, you worked an entire fraction of a second* for that money, you really had to pour your blood and sweat into it, so you definitely know better than those parasites who never worked an honest day in their entire lives! (The intense study required to successfully complete pre-med, followed by four years of med school, followed by three to eight years of residency technically doesn't count as work.) *Based on average annual income data for electrical engineers, assuming two weeks of vacation, it takes 0.78 seconds of work for one to gain a penny. And we're not even talking about an entire penny, just a small fraction of that! I wasn't planning on justifying this nastiness with a response but what the hell. I am feeling combative today. Reading this you make it sound as if I have some problem with gender reassignment as a valid medical treatment. I don't. I couldn't care less either way. If someone thinks this will make them happy and a doctor and psychiatrist agree then by all means go for it. But lets not confuse this with what health insurance is supposed to be about. Health insurance is about keeping people alive and healthy. It is not intended for "elective" things like this, or a nose job, or a boob job. And yes they are all the same kind of thing. I'm more than happy to provide tax money to pay the salaries and benefits of public servants but this is not a liver transplant, or a broken bone repair we're talking about here. This is personal elective procedures that are no one's problem or business but the patient and the cost of which should be borne by the patient. If it was my son or daughter and this is what they needed to be happy I'd pay as much or all of it if I could. But I nor anyone else OWES that to anyone. We're not talking about a boob job though, we're talking about people who have been diagnosed by multiple authorites and that the surgery is in the authorities opinion the only treatment that will work. It's not like some guy woke up and wanted to get his **** chopped off for ****s and giggles, it's mlre akin to treating a schizo who is a danger to themselves.
