On PE difficulty mechanics, objective xp and combat, stealth, sweet-talking
PK htiw klaw eriF replied to IndiraLightfoot's topic in Pillars of Eternity: Stories (Spoiler Warning!)Objective XP is nice not because it makes the game easier(although a competent designer can still provide challenges, and if you think Obsidian isn't competent, giving them money to make a game is strange), but because it doesn't overly penalize or reward for role-playing in a role-playing game. If I'm playing a merciful hero, why should I get less XP because I decide to spare a foe I bested in combat? Why should someone who effortlessly butchers random villages be rewarded with XP for something that was at best a 15-minute click fest? Isn't a better option typing XP to completing objectives and rewarding them for that? If you enjoy the challenges of combat you can still take enjoyment out of the combat encounters, the only thing that changes for you is that XP is rewarded in bulk after completing an objective rather than in smaller increments everytime you slay a mook. If you dislike combat so much the only reason you grinded through it was to be rewarded with XP, you should try playing a game that you actually enjoy playing.

Venting
Umm.....that is very weak for an original setting. My original setting that I played with included detailed notes on major factions, gods, and nations. And I was 17 then.

PK htiw klaw eriF replied to IndiraLightfoot's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)This again? If the only enjoyment you get out of combat is getting XP, then you should probably play something else. If it pisses you off that PoE will not have combat be rewarded with XP, then I suggest you get laid.- La neuvième art (comics you've been reading)

I picked up the second issue of Red Rover Charlie today. Was pretty damn good. I can't disagree with this at all. I wish they would put a better creative team on Spider-Man too.- KaineParker's Hopefully Attractive Women Thread Episode IV: A New Grope

While I find the idea of the real Galactus eating the Ultimate universe hilarious, I'm willing to bet the execution is ****. The new titles sound bad as well.- KaineParker's Hopefully Attractive Women Thread Episode IV: A New Grope

I picketed up a strange book called The Saviors. It seems like a pretty cool invasion story featuring a stoner. Would recommend to anyone burned out by Big2 superhero stuff. In the Ultimate U they broke up after Reed neglected Sue due to his obsession with Dr Doom, Johnny took off to hang with Peter Parker after his dad died, Sue took over the Baxter Building (think tank for under-age geniuses), and Ben joined SHIELD After killing Doom. Eventually Reed's depression, his constantly evolving intellect, and desire to build a perfect world turned him into a villain and he's now responsible for the destruction of Asgard and the absorbtion of most of northern Europe into a futuristic hive-mind. Why hasn't someone put Ultimate out of its misery already? Are they trying to get worse than Alan Moore's recent work? I don't think the current management of Marvel knows how to properly handle the FF or Spider-Man to be honest.- KaineParker's Hopefully Attractive Women Thread Episode IV: A New Grope
