Paying twice for the game?
Gfted1 replied to maxkillen's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
You are not being asked to pay twice. That link directs you to the website where you will determine how your monies will be divided. For example, I paid a total of $52.00 and that is broken down into: $25.00 for the game, $20.00 for the expansion and $7.00 for the strategy guide. -
Rofl. Perhaps you two should relax. I couldnt care less which OS anyone uses, or their skill level, or what market share Linux enjoys. I though we were having a simple conversation on why a user would choose Windows over Linux to game on and it is my opinion that ease of use is that reason. Nothing more, nothing less. Coming off as aggressive tools is bad form.

No True Turn-Based?

I hope there is a toggle to turn the AI off. I don't want NPC's charging into battle because I didn't notice they were idle for 2 seconds. -
Except that the user would have to take extra steps to set up Linux on their PC? Once it becomes an out-of-the-box product, then Linux would offer no drawback. For example, I can get in my car and drive to the store or I can build my car and then drive to the store. Sure they both work but one method is more difficult and prone to mistake.

specifically for playing games? probably nowhere. but maybe You can help me, because i've never understood why people would want to play games on windows when they can play on linux. yes, see, i understand why they have to play on windows, but i was asking why they would want to. i've asked: "why would i want to play on windows if i can play on linux?" You've answered with: "because there's no advantage to playing on linux." this does not answer my question, because You haven't told me if there are any disadvantages to playing games on linux. so i've asked myself: "are there any disatvantages to playing on linux?" and also answered myself: "for games that work on both OSes there are none. the decision, what to play those games on therefore comes down to the general OS preference." No. You asked why would "people" want to play on Windows. The answer being, if there is no advantage to playing on Linux why would anyone bother with it for gaming.

What?

^Because there is "probably nowhere" advantage to playing on Linux, maybe?

^Ah the memories that brings back. I invested a small fortune in quarters playing that game. Day one purchase for me.

Adam at Work
Gfted1 replied to Adam Brennecke's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
Do spells scale in power with level? I assume no since, afaik, spells eventually go from per day, to per encounter, to at will. Also increasing in power would seem a bit OP. -
I am a little bit dumberer for reading that. Note to self: Stop clicking BruceVC links.

I've built a time machine...where do you want to go?
Gfted1 replied to BruceVC's topic in Way Off-Topic
We can only go back in time? I want to see the technology available 1000's of years from now. Oh well, I guess it would be cool to see the event that wiped out the dinosaurs. -
So where will spoilers go?
Gfted1 replied to Ieo's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
There is a spoiler button conveniently located in a drop down menu under the Special BBCode button. Many other useful functions can also be found there. -
The Case for Romance II
Gfted1 replied to Gfted1's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
This is an honest question because the curiosity is killing me. For those of you that didn't want romance in PoE, you "won". As confirmed by the developer, there is no romance in PoE. FACT. What is with the continued animosity in threads that want to discuss it? What do you possibly gain by coming into these threads and calling for closure/movement? Even though its not in the game, you cant even let other people discuss it in peace? To stay on topic, Im neutral on romances. I romanced Jaheira in BG2 and it was alright, never played the DA series so I cant comment on that, and "romanced" everything that didn't get out of my way fast enough in TOR. I could take it or leave it but at the end of the day if its inclusion would negatively impact the end product then I would prefer it not be in the game. -
Ive also seen it said that the F-22 is unnecessary because the F-15 is undefeated in actual air to air combat. IMO, its vitally important to stay on the cutting edge of technology, and as Ricky Bobby once said, "If you aint first, youre last".
