Not much chance of it getting updated then. A few other annoying things: I have to click to use Jump instead of the game telling it's going to use it by itself. And even non-targeted abilities like Rage or Dash you need an extra click to make them happen. And Dash has an animation, why the hell. My favorite weird thing: I spent the first two rounds of the first combat encounter wondering why my attacks weren't hitting, only to find out I was targeting the floor instead of the enemy. Apparently even basic weapon attacks can target the floor, for whatever reason.

The Vampire castle isn't that far in the campaign, maybe like 1/4?

Played a bit of BG3 EA, and wow, the UI is way more cumbersome than Solasta. Hope it changes by release.

The best thing about this is the Steam page for Divinity Original Sin 2, which says "from the creators of Baldur's Gate 3". Can we just not overhype stuff before they're out...

We're still doing this **** in 2023?

Solasta's version of turn-based 5th ed D&D seemed to work well, in my opinion. Hoping BG3 is similar.

That's 6. Funnily enough, the Japanese don't seem to consider the FF-series a typical JRPG. For them Dragon Quest is more that. For FF, I remember reading they think there's more melodrama and everyone looks like a rock star.

Diablo 4 servers have been mostly down for about 12 hours. DDOS attack apparently, so you're always a bit limited on what you can do, but yeah, 70$ game, always-online, blah blah.

Oh god, I didn't mean to start one of those threads, again.

I think FFX is probably the best of the old FFs. It has some problems, probably because it's the first one on PS2, such as unskippable cutscenes and the english voice-acting is supposedly bad.

This game looks strangely familiar... https://www.paradoxinteractive.com/our-games/star-trek-infinite

Yeah, nothing about those Avowed info sounds bad to me. Races, I don't mind, I can understand some would. Classes, don't need them in a more single character game, PoE had too many in any case. The whole thing about oath and employment is just setup, every game forces you a main plot anyway.

Seems like that might be fixed https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/d4/t/hotfix-8-june-11-2023-102/44793

Literally unplayable.
