If the opt for adding a GM mode and level editor they may just have the ultimate digital tabletop for D&D. Not only would it instantly be better than every other implementation I tried, the basegame additionally also managed to improve upon the D&D ruleset by adding Weapon skills for martial classes. They would not even need to add more content. There are already mods that add the missing spells, feats and subclasses.

r/ifyoulikeblank always was cool. Basically suggestions of cool things that are similar to someting you promt because you already enjoy it. Does not matter what it is music, films, games, websites, weird shit, everything goes.

To be fair, soccer is a terrible RPG.

In BG3 it is a balance mechanic. Heavy objects tend to be completely OP and are used to cheese combat. encumberance limits this and even allows building your character specifically for this playstyle.

In Bethesda games encumberance is in part there to protect players from themselves. If every object can be picked up (and that is a design principle in those games) and every object has a Value, then the optimal strategy is always to grab every single object you can find and then sell everything at once. If that does not sound like fun to you that is because it is not, but still i know multiple people who play those games this way even with encumberance in place. Players will always find a way to ruin their own fun, the only hing you can do is to put systems in place that disincentivise these behaviors.

The first game in ages where it actually feels like the company/ developers actually put in effort and released a complete product

Ironically the only people who say this about BG3 have not reached the third act yet. Still my favourite game in years, but the later stages of the game really could have done with more playtesting. there are bugged quests, disappearing characters, people ignoring story events in dialogue, missing cutscenes and multiple outcomes for storylines happening at the same time.

Probably that you are secretly building killer robots, that will take over the world in the future.

If you are here for branching stories with a lot of player choice you basically have to start with Origins. The save transfers up to the third game and it has a lot of callbacks that could have played out differently if you picked different things in the first two games. It's basically the only redeeming quality of DA:Inquisition for me.

In BG3 encumberance is absolutely needed to balance the game. Heavy Objects are still the best way to cheese combat and that is with you being limited in how many you can carry. Building a Character in a way to work around this is absolutely possible and a valid choice for a character build. It is definitely not a meaningless aspect of your character.

Dissappointing from a technical point of view

Dissappointing from a roleplay point of view

Dissappointing from a narrative point of view

At least for me

Sounds to me like you just need to relax your own expectations and examine why you play those games. I started playing PUBG with friends this year and had a lot of fun. But i'm not really playing for the win. Of course we are trying to win, but the enjoyment of the game and the time we spend is just as important. A game where we try something stupid and die laughing is just as much fun as getting a win. One of my mates sometimes rages when he dies to what he considers to be bullshit but for me, I just shrug, and queue for the next game and start over. I enjoy the act of playing the game so why should i care if i have to start over?

Smashing chests in BG3 has no negative effects.

I think I know exactly which dialogue bug you are referring to. Happened to me as well, although after I turned down the deal. The second part might just be Gale being Gale

I know the feeling. It is the first time I have spent more than 30€ on a game and not regretted it.

Calling this glitchless is a little misleading, unless you’re suggesting that carrying spells over from one run to the next was intended / normal functionality.

I would definitely argue that this is intended. Hollow eggs have all kinds of weird abilities and are extremely important to the lore. And the wand is also completely possibe to build ingame unless I missed something. So while extremely unlikely this is theoretically possible.

Of course you are right, this is not a standard speedrun. But i still think it is insane and very cool.

Absolutely. The appeal of an RPG for me is to be able to immerse myself in a story and decide for myself how i act and what i chose. It bothers me that it is so rare these days that i can control my characters attitude to a problem instead of just choosing the outcome of a situation. Like in Cyberpunk 2077 where the main char is a rude asshole with dumb ideas no matter what you do.

It has been free for years now...

They are from humble monthly, a subscription service that gets you games each month and some extra perks.

I would interpret "perfect" as "i can't find anyhing negative to say about this game". So for me the candidates are:

• Portal 1&2
• Factorio
• Outer Wilds
• FTL
• TowerFall: Ascension
• Dishonored 2
• Prey (the Arkane studios one)
• Minit
• and maybe Nidhogg

I'd say it all depends on the rules he community of each game agrees on. For Noita this is not a legit run and that is fine, but using data from different runs/saves to make another run faster is not that unusual I think. Pretty sure some jRPGs do similar things for rng manipulation and Kotor2 and Skyrim have useful glitches that appear when you leave the game running for a while before starting your run. They are not allowed, but for skyrim at least the reasoning is not that it is an invalid strat, but that the setup is too much of a pain.

I am curious to see if the BR trend now repeats itself with the extraction genre. I think COD and Battlefield already adapted the mode but I do not know how that went and whether they are still going, but now the first wave of larger standalone "Tarkov-likes" is coming in so maybe there is a new hype forming.

There is not really much in terms of new content. Just minor bugfixes, some optimization and modding improvements. The announced expansion will also be payed content.

You probably need two comic communities. One for posting strips and one for discussion because as soon as you are allowed to post strips and chapters, people will flood it with self promotion and popular strips, making discussion quite difficult.

“Hahaha, I rolled higher initiative so now you don’t get to play for the next three rounds while I can do whatever I want.”

I had to reload multiple fights because the enemies just killed 3-4 of my partymembers before I had my first turn. Random Initiative is really not something I like in Games.

Worth pointing out that for all paradox grand strategy games the dlcs are shared during a multiplayer session. So if you play MP only the host needs to own them.

I mention it in my post because it does not have the stuff i need.

Starfinder modules among other things
