gkathellar Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Incidentally, trawling through the globals file reveals the name of Vatnir's godlike race: Endings. So that's pretty cool. but where's my damn Ydwin upgradeWaifu extravaganza dlc, for the low price of $19.99 ydwin becomes a full companion seeking to use her animancy tools for something else.

no1fanboy Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 So if they havent increased the level cap what other incentives are there for people to buy the expansion apart from more story? Are the more spells, abilities ect ? new game features? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boeroer Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 While I was watching the stream the word "companion" was dropped several times when it comes to Vatnir.

no1fanboy Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 (edited) yeah what are we supposed to do ? Play the expansion and not level up the whole time? The main reason i play these games is so i can level up and get more powerful Running around talking to fictional characters is going to have to cut it Edited July 13, 2018 by no1fanboy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Achilles Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 While I was watching the stream the word "companion" was dropped several times when it comes to Vatnir. I can't remember that they said sidekick. Did I miss it? IIRC they clarified as one of the very last questions (right when he was being introduced). 1 "Art and song are creations but so are weapons and lies" "Our worst enemies are inventions of the mind.

aksrasjel Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 (edited) I guess I'll once again come off as a grump - but I'm slightly dissapointed - if not surprised at all - of Vatnir being *yet another* sidekick. On the plus side, he seems to have a bit more story stuff than your typical sidekick. But I guess after leaving the DLC area he'll probably shut up forever, cause that's how they roll. Not to be overtly pessimistic - but I think that new full companions are off the table. I guess it's too much hassle for Obsidian to add this much new content to the relationship system. So, worst case scenario, we may be stuck with the regular seven + what it shaping up to be an entire army of sidekicks. Oh, well. But, again, that's just my hunch - and I pray to be wrong. But not to come off as completely negative - we'll fnally get to see a functioning Pale Elf society, after them being shrouded in mystery for two games. And that's really fine in my book.

handsomenat Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 On stream they did say that Vatnir will have some reactions to the base game events too? As for Ydwin, she had some interjections in two dialogues they showed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tagaziel Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 They didn’t quote a number a hours. They said it’s larger than Bastard’s Wound; smaller than The White March. Does that include all the possible plauthroughs through BW? HMIC for: [ The Wasteland Wiki ] [ Pillars of Eternity Wiki ] [ Tyranny Wiki ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misterjimmy Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 (edited) I LOVE the new guy, Vatnir, already. This is a great addition for us folks who weren’t terribly fond of Xoti, or just thought that one playthrough with her was enough. I remember xoti was written by Megan Starks, And she writing kills-in-shadow in tyranny. Both are worst character in game. OK,Maybe xoti better than kills-in-shadow, but still awful.

no1fanboy Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Im a huge fan of everything in deadfire apart from the narrative, main story line and the writing I honestly think the game could have been alot better with a different writing team. The story is far from gripping and immersive 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for Ydwin, she had some interjections in two dialogues they showed. You're right, but technically speaking, Ydwin/Fassina/Konstanten also have "some reactions to base game events" - all five of them. So, we'll see how this is gonna go. And honestly, I'm ambivalent about Ydwin's treatment - I like that she might get some more content here and there in BoW, but from what I understand from the stream she's still a mere sidekick - unless Mr Scokel was *very* coy and tightlipped. So I don't believe she'll be getting a character quest, any sort of character arc or a possibility to form any sort of meaningful relationship with the Watcher. And all of this will be rendered moot the minute she leaves the DLC area and becomes silent once agan. As previously, I'll see how this pans out. I'm just that much of an Eeyore. I remember xoti was written by Megan Starks, And she writing kills-in-shadow in tyranny. Both are worst character in game. OK,Maybe xoti better than kills-in-shadow, but still awful. I'll give Xoti this - I still cannot figure out what's the idea behind her character, but at least she's entertaining. I don't think in way that writer originally intended, but entertaining nontheless. If I were to pick a character I dislike the most it would be hands-down Pallegina. She's just unpleasant to deal with. I guess her supposed depth and nuance flew over my head. But that's a completely different discussion alltogether.

AndreaColombo Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Did they confirm it will be available to players as well?

Actually, they've called them DLC and expansions in the past. You can still find on Obsidian's website where they call them expansions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
