That is sad news. One of the reasons I got myself a large tower and put the parts in myself. I can fit any mobo, processor, power supply out there into my case. I've been down the road of getting pre-built PC's with special, unique parts in them before and raged when I couldn't replace them without buying a whole new computer. Your processor doesn't meet the minimum requirements. That's bad news man.

Lol, the Minimum system requirements are below the laptop that I use as a netflix streaming machine on my nightstand that was built in 2008 and runs at 185 F degrees struggling to cope with overheating issues. An i3 processor fits any of these: http://ark.intel.com/products/family/65503/3rd-Generation-Intel-Core-i3-Processors#@All and Pretty sure this will run on an AMD machine, which is what I have. 4 gigs of Ram is Cheap: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&IsNodeId=1&N=100007611%20600006067 for 1 stick, $30, so $65 to get the Recommended RAM listed, $32 for the "Minimum" A 1 gb graphics card is the "Recommended" one, which if that's truly and issue. I have two sitting in a box in my closet someone can have. This game isn't graphically intensive at all from the listing I am reading for system requirements. I wouldn't worry too much.

@Boedmar: Don't freak out man. As someone who never bothered to play Path of Exile, I'll use PoE for this game as much as I feel like. As someone who's been playing DnD since '92, I'm also likely to mix up similar terms from DnD when discussing the Pillars of Eternity attributes/skills just due to simple muscle memory and long standing use. I DM Pathfinder, and use those terms daily. You may need to grab a stick to bite down on when browsing the forums or something for the next month. Cheers.

Thanks, yeah, I liked the knifes edge balance concept and want to test it out. I was wondering on that. Whether Might+Con focus was the best, or Might+Resolve or Might+Dex. I wouldn't want to crank up Deflection, as if I'm avoiding being hit, I am not taking damage and gaining Wounds to power my abilities. Leading me to thinking that Might+Con would be the priority to make me be able to soak hits. Then the Dex for speed to attack faster, and finally Resolve for defense. I think it would be a hard mode option for a first character, without needing to select hard mode/path of iron/etc on my first run through. However, there's lots of interesting choices to go through. I may have to try this class as a secondary character option when I start forming my party.

When I was 14, sure.

mmmm popcorn shrimp... why did I make this thread, now it is making me very hungry Yup, planned on finger foods in case my hands cramp up from the game play after hours on end. Actual food as opposed to chips. Got enough to get me through Thursday and Friday. With buffalo boneless wings and tater tots when that runs out. Toaster oven is 3 steps from the desk, fridge is 3 steps from the toaster oven. Dual monitor setup so I can DM my pathfinder game while running PoE. Good to go bro.

Rum and cokes, popcorn shrimp and seasoned fries for dinner. Snacks? No time for that. Meal breaks when the eyes are burning. Arnold Palmers and Gatorade when I need to hydrate. Steak may make its presence known if I play straight through into Friday morning. Serious business if that goes down.

Hey there folks. I've been waiting the whole time just keeping my head buried and avoiding all of the information along the way to get a true surprise when tomorrow morning hits and I can play. However, I am curious about the Monk class, as it's an interesting take on a new way to utilize melee combatants. For those of you who were part of the Backer Beta phase, maybe someone can give me some input here. I am getting the feel that Con is only good with a class with high base scaling of Health, as Might also boosts similar attributes but adds to damage as well. So Might > Con is what I am getting out of the two of those. Adding in Deflection and DR as ways to mitigate damage and being struck, this seems logical. Yet, the Monk relies on getting hit to power his abilities. So for folks who have played as Monks, would the assumption that you want to pump Might first, then Con to stack your Health/Endurance as your goal will be to accumulate damage in order to power your Wounds/class abilities be correct? Further, if so, where else would attribute points go to ideally? Resolve for resistances to Interrupts and Deflection so you can avoid some hits too along with the Will boost? I understand from reading some posts here that the Manual and the Wiki are outdated, so coming to folks with in game experience for information rather than those. Would be nice to just read the materials out there and know what is going on, but if they are wrong, leaves me in a pinch to make an informed decision when I start up a game tomorrow. Thanks!

Thanks Obsidian! Looking forward to Thursday.

Thanks for my Key Obsidian! Pre-loading now.

That's understandable, and I really wish all of the complaining people here would just realize that.

Jesus, have you even ever been to the RSI forums? (And I guarantee my citizen # is higher than yours...) Your complete lack of self-awareness is almost awe-inspiring.... Most likely - I didn't sign up to the website till closer to the end of the KS campaign. I had the opportunity to have been a Golden Ticket holder but didn't think it would have meant much. And yeah the RSI forums aren't always happy - but it's engaged which is a key difference. But you know what I've said my piece those who disagree have that option - those that feel the same as I do aren't going to have their opinions changed by being called babies or told its a temper tantrum. Its too late for Obsidian to fix their idiotic decision we'll all just wait for our keys - those on slow internet will wait longer. I personally wont be bothering with Obsidian in future unless I see some bridge building and will be telling the people I know to stay away, whether or not that effects them (probably not) who can say. But honestly I respected these guys and was really rooting for them to succeed, and sure maybe they will but I'm disappointed in them for their actions I thought they would have been better. What on earth are you talking about? They developed a game. It's set to release Thursday morning at 9 am PST. It's Tuesday at 11:42 PM EST now. The game release hasn't come and passed us by yet. There's nothing to complain about. At all yet.

I avoided all of it except the required "Click this, fill in that to get what you ordered". Signed up here, paid my backer stuff, and am waiting for my key and download stuff while I do DM work. I caught a bit of a stream while I ate just a bit ago. The game looks damn pretty. So a bit of hype from that. Went from the Kickstarter 2.5 years ago, to watching someone dungeon crawl at level 3 with a full party in the past hour.

Yeaaahhh, the whiny rage I've seen here today is just making me shake my head. It's just a game. It's not life saving medicine. Chill and just enjoy something else for a while.

Not really? Over reaction there. If you are using dial-up internet, you shouldn't be gaining access to a game this size via internet download. The ideal way would be via a stack of dvd discs in a box. >.< The game is released on Thursday, 9 am PST. Until it's hit around 5 PM Eastern Time on Thursday, I won't be crying foul. Delays happen. Once that bridge is crossed at that point, people can start complaining.

Thanks for the reasoning. Makes sense. Letting the folks in charge over there know so they can boot things up tonight on their end. Looking forward to getting my key and pre-loading while I sleep tonight if all goes well. Cheers!

*waves*

Just wanted to say hello, and thanks for reminding me to confirm. >.< I ran into a login issue previously and didn't have the time to deal with it when it occurred. All set now, looking forward to the game coming out just after my birthday. ^-^
