    Spilting talents and feats seems like a good way to provide more class flexibility as well as universial boni. As it is, I don't see a Gish Cipher or sniper Rogue as viable builds.

    You'll pass. If you don't, blame the time you spent at Finnish Innsmouth for screwing with your mind.

    That was excellent read. In other news... well, actually it's still the very same news. TFYC is still being attacked by anti-GG side: http://socialjusticeviv.tumblr.com/post/98412304682/the-fine-young-capitalists-arent-actually-helping TFYC reply: http://thefineyoungcapitalists.tumblr.com/post/98422490495/a-response-to-social-justice-viv It really boggles my mind how these self proclaimed SWJs and feminist keep attacking an attempt to get more women in gaming industry. It really is, really, just what that TechCruch report said. Their own politics have become more important than ACTUALLY helping women. Funnily enough the girl who won is a feminist. Just a brief scroll down through her twitter to before this thing has her saying all the same things they usually say. TFYC is a feminist group. IMO, TFYC represents a much better way to achieve more representation in videogames than the SJWs do as they are actually making a game instead on stomping their feet and demanding games be made to their specifications.

    I thought so. I can see INT being less valuable, but everything else is attractive. Hell, putting 13 in everything might be a good move after all.

    I don't see a single stat that I'd want to take, for any type of character really. Well done. I particularly like the idea of increasing attack range from perception. You don't want to take any stats?

    I was under the impression like all gamers they were dead.

    Wow that's really funny guys, next time I'll remember to laugh. So you're fine with kicking animals? Good to know.

    Well, the HD on my work/school PC crapped out, and I have lost some important files. ****. You should've punched her in the face.

    Took an exam, have to get several reports in, and am running on 3 hours of sleep, caffeine, and various energy supplements. I'm considering bombarding myself with gamma rays and hoping for the best.

    I'm doing it anyways.

    "No." Nice dodge.

    I'll join in the wild mass guessing regardless, and hazard the guess that they're of the eminently reasonable "oh my god, this whole thing is dumb" opinion.Nice dodge. Says the guy whose knee-jerk reaction to a fairly likely explanation of why Obsidz might not want to wade in this whole mess is "DOESN'T MATTER IT'S FOLLY TO THINK ABOUT IT". Nice dodge.

    I'll join in the wild mass guessing regardless, and hazard the guess that they're of the eminently reasonable "oh my god, this whole thing is dumb" opinion.Nice dodge. Not really, its a very valid reason said in a polite way why Obsidian wouldn't want to be associated with GG I wouldn't if I was a developer. End of the day I consider you guys the more moderate supporters of GG but there are real misogynists who regularly participate in GG. Why would you think that Obsidian that is company that takes its view of gender representation seriously want to be associated with people like that? I'm not saying it isn't an acceptable reason, I'm saying that the reason is unknown and attempting to guess why is a waste of time and is frankly irrelevant. What I take issue with is the characterization of GG as a bunch of entitled white guys upset that they are being driven out, as "perceived outrage certain gamers feel due to the subjective definition of a word" implies. Part of the reason I support GG is because the one-sided coverage of it by the press at large. To me, it is the straw that has broken the camels back after years of biased reviews, publisher smooshing, and a low quality in standards.

    There's a word that starts with a "b" and ends with "eta" that explains this.

    Actually "for many people, the fact that GG has its roots in what's widely perceived as an organized harrassment campaign against Zoe Quinn is enough to turn them off the whole movement on principle, regardless of what it's morphed into since (which is not necessarily a very rational stance, but there you have it)" is a perfectly valid argument on Bruce's part, which you haven't addressed thus far. Too bad he didn't make that argument then. His argument was that Obsidian might not have come out in support of GG because stuff. I listed several different reasons why they might not have come out in support, and made the statement that trying to come up with a reason why they haven't is folly. Try again.
  21. PK htiw klaw eriF
    No strawman from me Bruce. I can't be blamed for your inability to be clear. I've already provided a counterpoint to your assumption, to which you replied with a very vague condemnation of GamerGate's extremists. If you can't be bothered to address your strawman, don't blame me.

    You welcome to point out I am making a strawman but it would be wrong A point was raised that Obsidian should support GG and a whole load of reasons were given why they should or shouldn't. Except the obvious reason that maybe Obsidian doesn't support it because they think the entire GG initiative is completely misplaced....or maybe ...just maybe Obsidian also believes in certain points around transformation in the gaming industry and GG does more harm than good as it distracts the discussion with all this " accurate information about the situation" Not everyone automatically thinks GG is a great idea KP Or Chris Avellone ate everyone at Obsidian. We don't know why Obsidian hasn't addressed GamerGate, and any attempts to guess why is just pulling stuff out your ass. As to your strawman, you keep misrepresenting what people are bothered about. And that somehow if you are pro GamerGate you condone harassing people. Fundamentally GamerGate is about dissatisfaction with gaming journalists. If you're going to argue against it, at least have the decency to address what it is actually about. Of course I am not saying everyone on GG has the same motives. There are some legitimate points raised by some people on it. But unfortunately you have your extremists along with your moderates. So many people won't be associated with it because of the extremist elementAnd the extremists have been condemned here, so why keep bringing them up? Now that's a strawman, I thought we were talking about why Obsidian doesn't actively support GG? I gave you a reason why, now you asking why am I bringing it up because "that has already been condemneD" Your point has nothing to do why Obsidian may or may not support GG You aren't very good with English. We were talking about how you keep misrepresenting what GamerGate is about, not why Obsidian hasn't said anything about it.

    I tend to agree. But they did claim they were making a spiritual successor to BG2. THEY NEVER CLAIMED THIS. Christ, it is like I am stuck in a freaking loop of insanity seeing the same exact posts, repeated over and over again, all having no basis in any sort of reality. Even if they did, spiritual successor is pretty subjective. As these forums seem to suggest, BG2 and the other IE games were different things to different people. As it is, Obsidian promised and isometric RPG with RTwP combat and a party. From what I can tell, that describes PoE.
