Did i gimp myself
Ashen Rohk replied to Enchilada's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
^ to what that guy said. Also, there's a cloak you get in Act 1 which gives you +10 to Will somewhere -
In light of Firedorn's post and that he was given the option of changing and he did so to prevent further **** storm, I have a lot of respect for him as a person for immediately saying "yes" but also to Obsidian for not making this mandatory. So, thanks I guess.

Limerick edit thread

Let's just remember that the limerick is the story of a man who gets blind drunk, goes to bed with someone he believes to be a woman and it turns out that he went to bed with a man. Beer goggles or transphobia?- 636 replies

Limerick edit thread

Wait, so the occasions when the violent rape text is mandatory to sit through to progress the game are okay but a bit of a silly poem isn't? *takes notes* -
Hard mode is too easy.
Ashen Rohk replied to Mazisky's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
I think the difficulty curve varies wildly. I went from slaughtering my through the priest's quarters in Raedric's keep to getting ramshanked by a trio of boar. -
IE Veteran's feedback
Ashen Rohk replied to Athrogate's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
I for one feel this is a vast improvement over the IE games. I was so sick of pre-buffing etc etc, and then a bum rush when spells ran out before you spam rested. PoE is making me think more tactically than any IE game ever did. Sawyer and his team did a great job with this game. I always say to my other half that if diehard Tolkein fans had made the LOTR movies, they would've been terrible. I think that transfers over here. And if you want to play an IE game...play an IE game.- 131 replies

Pros & Cons - Steam vs GOG which will you pick and why?
Ashen Rohk replied to wanderon's topic in Backer Beta Discussion
Steam. I have a GoG account and it's great but I want to keep my games library as together as possible and not have yet another interface like Uplay/Origin etc on my PC. -

Keys ? When ?

My body. It is ready. -
These streamers are comically bad
Ashen Rohk replied to Bazy's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
I dropped in on a couple of streams last night. WolfsGoRawr was okay but when you see someone walking into a big red circle after TRAP DETECTED appears over it you have to wonder. The rest have been somewhere between incompetently endearing and totally ****ing useless, the latter in no way a good way to help sell a game. -
I'm going to freely admit, I'm pretty pissed about the big name things, and it's a personal thing. Obsidian are absolutely right to get the big names doing their press reviews and early YT/Streams. My personal view is that a big name YTer is gonna squash any traffic my channel had for PoE into the ground, and cue the 'You're copying such and such to get the followers" comments. I was never expecting a press key, nor would I have asked for one but considering the amount of content I've put out for PoE since August, it's a pretty selfish reason but I never said I was perfect. Not Obsidian's fault in the slightest, as I said at the beginning of this post they are completely in the right as things are to get the publicity this game deserves.
