Perhaps all that forehead slapping is taking a toll? The fur miniskirt is longer in the back than the front. Clearly, when confronted with a front and below attack as depicted, the blow will be directed around her hip and into her exposed groin. I dont know about you but if my groin gets savaged by a claw attack, I consider that vital. Also, look at the bikini. The fur there will allow claw attacks to slide easily over the chest and focus all the energy on her sternum. Do you want her to get a busted sternum? Didnt think so. As for Pinstripe McFancypants and the monk, they are protected by magic and chi respectively. Had a claw attack been directed at either of their groins it would have triggered a critical failure on the attacker and caused them to claw their own groin. Its so simple I cant believe everyone doesnt see it.

Huh? Look closer. There is a mook about to deliver a claw attack to her exposed southern boreal region because she is wearing a fur miniskirt. Totally unrealistic armor for dungeoneering.

Trolling? Not me good sir. Im deeply, deeply offended by the dwarf's depiction which is clearly only for the titillation of young males. Furthermore, the fur miniskirt and bikini top are totally unrealistic and would only serve to direct weapon blows to her vital areas.

Hmm, looks like they have oversexualized that dwarf by putting her in a fur miniskirt. They should rework the concept because, really, who would delve into a dungeon in totally unrealistic fur?

Whats the point of fade-to-black before unfading-from-black but time has passed? The player hasnt spent any more time with the games characters to gain a feeling of closeness, just artificially advanced time. Is it all a jedi mind trick to allow yourself to believe youve been with these characters for years?

If you are playing the difficulty level that includes permanent death, you will pretty much have no choice but to use the Hall, no? I mean, unless you are an RPG god you are almost certainly going to have each companion die at least once and with no resurrection magic you will have to resort to the self made NPC's or go it solo. I have no idea how people play like that. Im pretty sure Ill have someone die while doing the obligatory level 1 quest of clearing the basement of rats.

Cut of the treasure? Hell no! If I replace someone I strip them to their shorts before I send them on their way.

The Adventurers Hall is not for me. Thats exactly what I hated about IWD II, having to make all the party members myself. I prefer a fleshed out character that already has a built in story and banter.

Congrats!

Ah, art imitating life.

Im neutral on romances. The BG style romance was pretty benign but Ive never played DA or ME. I assume the latter two romances were about the same as SWTOR "romances"? (flirt for a few lines and than fade to black?)

TBH, I would be shocked and amazed if this game shipped on schedule. Has any game ever? I would expect a few months slippage between now and then.

Maybe a hose clamp could hold you over? :highfive: Me, I dont do anything. I used to take the dog for a walk after work but then over the summer we had this string of 15-20 days of 100+ F heat. It was durning one of these days when I looked down at her, she looked up at me, our eyes locked, and in that very moment an understanding was forged that we would never ever do this BS again.

All you need to know is "dos cervezas por favor".

If they are alreay planning on spell cooldowns then casting times are out?

Please no food mechanic, at least on Normal difficulty.

I didnt read the whole thread so maybe this was already discussed but what happens when they die? IIRC there is no such thing as resurrection magic in the world of P:E so what happens when they go face down? Total party size is six so thats the PC + 5, which I suppose when they get killed you just replace them from the pool of the remaining three? And if/when they die, then what? We just have to go short handed?

As an aside, how is there a picture of her sitting right next to Breivik? Is that a photoshop or something?

I think they should stomp out "fast travel scumming" and force the player to walk every step of every mile. No exits, no fast travel, not even Boots of Speed. Just the heel-to-toe express or I'll gain some kind of advantage and my immersion will be broken. Or something.

Im in for $52 ($25 tier + $20 expansion + $7 strategy guide).

Thats known as the "bait and switch".

^The irony is strong in you, padawan.

I think this is an excellent point. To me is seems like a lot of this games mechanics are being based solely on how to prevent people from doing this or that. We dont like "rest scumming": put in a system that forces you to rest in only certain locations, We dont like "ability / spell casting scumming": put in cooldowns, We dont like players "level scumming": put in quest based experience, We dont like players "topping off before battles scumming", see "rest scumming" and "ability scumming". So much energy is being funneled into forcing the players to play only one way. Im not even particulalry opposed to new mechanics, just mechanics that sound like their only purpose is to harsh my buzz. I just dont want everything to be a hassle, I want to have fun.

So restorative magic is only available outside of combat but restorative abilities are available inside combat? I assume then that all classes will have some restorative ability inside combat?
