Ye, try it solo. For me the hardest fight is with I wonder if that choice will have impact in Deadfire...

D:OS II and Deadfire are completely different games. I wish Deadfire had an option to play with buddies or some kind of MP support, but no... it will be as a good book, just for mere solo entertainment. On the other hand D:OS II is not as deep (plain and straight forward, but still with unexpected and cool story turnovers) as I expect Deadfire will be with all that lore / char import baggage from first pillars. I would love to play in Eora world the way like I can in D:OS II GM mode or arena. Hopefully Obsidian will do something like that in future. P.S. And I like Obsidian art style more, it's just closer for my heart ♥ P.P.S I never finished D:OS I, cause I felt its getting repetitive and boring, and I don't want even to try it again. On the other hand PoE I - studied everything, tryharded for every achievement... Every game has a point when it's not fun anymore and I feel Obsidian > Larian. Anyway - those are great teams, I like their products and I'll support their work in future.

Haha, have a nice time playing

First major patch, still there are some bugs that should be solved. But it's good that they are relatively fast reacting.

Never liked multiclassing thing, always preferred to go straight. In my mind there is a Swashbuckler due these: Rogue - Sneak Attack - Reckless Assault - Shadowing Beyond - Dirty Fighting - Deathblows Fighter - Confident Aim - Weapon Specialization - Fearless - Armored Grace Still I don't know how all these things will work, so it's a matter of information! Subclass is an interesting thing though... Also thinking of Devoted pure Fighter Is Devoted Assassin possible? Maybe wizard with illusions... it's fun when you have around 300 deflection. P.S. All thoughts coming only from PoE I experience, who knows how it will be in Deadfire

Lol, just realized this after your post. I've done the fight solo, saw some casualties, but thought those were just Seekers Nice turnover.

A pity that Deadfire is focused only on singleplayer! I wish there could be something like GM or Arena mode as in D:OS II Hopefully some day they will make this possible... Eora world is awesome.

If Spellblade will have backstab with spells... I guess it's the way I'll play

PotD is easy man, easy!

It's getting hot

I don't see the Porkmaster... why?

So far found some quests bugged due to poor sequence and realization... Like: "Finding Emmie" "The Imprisoned Elf" "The Tribe of Saheila" "The Arena of Fort Joy" "Withermoore's Soul Jar" "Every Mother's Nightmare" etc. I hate when there are unfinished bugged quests in the journal, moreover quests I've completed right or quests that can be done in next chapter, but closing in previous chapter Also cheesy fights, like with Alexander - I've managed to kill them just by kiting, it's easy to separate 2 out of 5 enemies just by putting barrel in the pathway... just little things that are a bit dumb but... Still playing the game In fact.. many quests are bugged, the game feels raw. Alas QA did poor job Here is the quests discussion at larian forum Hopefully Deadfire QA will do better job

Reached Alexander fight, tactician mode, completely solo. Lacking 4k exp to level 8, at which the fight should be much easier. But seems I've gained all exp I could get on the island, excluding quests from npcs if there are any... I like the fact you can escape Fort Joy all the way to the Sanctuary without any fighting, but with the collar on... Just overthinking strategy to do the Honor Mode...

With new hotfix (yesterday) they fixed direct connections and some other issues.

Trying D:OS2

We have tried this option - not working. Direct connection is not just giving an easy code for connection.

Played the game for about 30 hours, my verdict - it's good. But Llarian royally screwed up with multiplayer at Friday night. 14.09.17 - everything worked fine: direct connections, GM mode etc., - played with my steam and gog buddies together 15.09.17 / till now - not working properly, only via evolvehq, hamachi, tunngle, that was a bummer, so I played solo. And there are some weird interactions... I've rumbled a bit here Still the game is fine, I'm playing im my manner - lone wolf, solo. With undead character perk "play dead" all fights can be cheesy easy.

Since 2015, cheaters have been trading savegame files made by kickstarter backers. Decide yourself whether you want to load such a savegame to unlock the achievement and become a cheater, too. I think it's a shame that cheaters get the "Thanks for all your support" line in their PoE achievements list. It's completely skewing the numbers. It should not be possible. I guess it's really cheesy way to get an achievement, but I don't want that. For me - I'm just not satisfied with achievement I can't get "legal", that is locked by an event. I know every tiny bit of this game but.. still I can't get all achievements - that's a bummer for me, and that's it. P.S. And it's easy to determine if backer achievement date is older then any other achievement.

Haha, true! I was a bit shocked with their elven design... Long necks, eating flesh - weird Good thing they made an option to play as an undead character. Looking forward to test out their arena and co-op. As for the npc character spotlights - I'm not fond of their idea to make such acquaintance. They made it way too simple. For some it may be great - plain and simple, but it's not deep as Obsidian / Black Isle did, when you learn the npc through the game content. Anyway I prefer to play alone to max out game difficulty

Tried softcore harbringer league Path of Exile, combining with Overwatch, Hearthstone... waiting for D:OS II In Pillars of Eternity my wizard is ready for Deadfire, almost 70% done with my second character for Deadfire - max endurance (durance to the pool) Evil Dwarf Barbarian

Take a look at youtube for some highlights I guess. They did many updates with new features.

For some reason I was not impressed by alpha release, played it for several hours I guess... But I'm looking forward to play some on the release date on Sep 14. What are your thought on this product?

I guess it's too late for any requests.

It's almost a month since last update... any chance we will know more about multiclass soon?

Maybe we'll see some gamelan? Let's hope so! :D This is really really cool, thanks! Glad you enjoyed! That album, Golden Rain, is really good, worth checking out. Also worth looking for in terms of more modern gamelan-style stuff is Geinoh Yamashirogumi, the guys who did the soundtrack for Akira. This is simply superb: "Golden Rain" sounds familiar ... Not the best name for the album!
