Black Sails you say? Just watching the intro makes me want to rewatch it, even though I just rewatched it last year.

I also tried to rest only when absolutely needed. Using 3 short rests per long rest and even not using spell recovery on Gale half the time (cause I would forget until combat started). With a 3 caster party it defiantly nerfed my damage output, even though Battle Master Lae'zel was just pouncing...

Adding mobs on higher difficulty is what Pathfinder did, in addition to other stuff, and they were able to actually make a challenging game in the face of a pretty dramatic power curve. They also offer the option to speed up enemy animations, so turns don't take forever. The problem with adding...

Are you going to be just using these knives for butchering outside or in the barn? Then probably just get some butchering knives made more for commercial line work. You may want boning and cleaver knives too...

There is a mod that tries to increase difficulty, but with the lack of tools right now, the best they can do is change AC/saves, attack rolls, and HP. They really need to add more mobs too, so there is more shit coming at you, and AoE is more rewarding, but it is the early stage for mods, and...

Mod Links. Be aware, some mods may require other mods (the weight limit and bags mods don't). More info below: You can install mods manually, with a little extra work, but once you get enough of them I found it better to use BG3 Mod Manager, since some mods require a load order (I don't think...

I did the Gale

Didn't even think about that, going to go try it tonight. Longstrider from a Hireling (or party member if using the PnP spells mod) and 21 STR leaps make it not matter.

I never play a short race, but figured it was a evil playthrough so why not. The Disguise Self (Fane) helm helped with that decision, as I just use the Elf or Half Elf illusion at all times. I might try to match races with various areas, but I played Drow in the first playthrough and reactivity...

The meta race seems to be a deep gnome since they get advantage on Int/Wis/Cha saving throws. There are a lot of Int/Wis saving throws and advantage allows you to "safely" dump wis to 8 and not pay for it too much. Also, with Hexblade mod, you can use Cha for weapon rolls starting at level 2...

Chuk in his 20s:

Funny, I am also doing a Pally Dark Urge run as my second playthrough. I downloaded the Hexblade and extended PnP spells mods, so trying to have a more PnP type experience with 11 Pally / 1 Lock. Downside so far is that there are no spells that last until long rest, with one of the mods, so...

Saw this story elsewhere and according to it, the guy takes one of the sword fighting martial arts (Kendo?) and was coming home from a class at that time, when he was flagged down by the building security or owner. So he actually knew how to use it and it wasn't some cheapo display sword that...

You may need to be primed by Clone Wars and how that went from mediocre to good to great (as good as the original trilogy) as the seasons progressed. I skipped season 1 of Clone Wars originally too, and I don't think it caused many issues (also never seen any of the droid episodes to...

The canvas bag was a scumbag move by a scumbag company. Are you really trying to make the argument that no one should care about companies misrepresenting their products and scamming their customers unless they are the ones directly scammed?

231 liters = 61 gallons

In a galaxy farther than far away there is a group called the Yedi that were all but wiped out. Now, there is a new prospect for the future. Get ready for the Waterwalker Saga!

Ah, yea. If you are on Twitch all the time, you would need to keep turning "twitchcdn.net" on/off in NoScript, in order to block the embed on other sites, and I could see how that would get annoying. I also did what Vorph said and it cleans up the page a bit more too.

Never even knew they auto loaded Twitch until I read the Reddit post on them. Load up some blockers for your browser. With Ublock Origin and NoScript here is what I see on the BG3 wiki (I still prefer the layout of the other wiki I linked above, though):

That's what I kept reading, but then again, everyone gushes about Witcher 3 and I liked the Witcher 1 & 2 more than the third one (only got through the third game once). So, a few years ago I figured enough time had passed to make a fresh playthrough of it, with all the DLCs, but nope, by the...

Because that wasn't a saving throw, it was just a plain stat check (I think I have heard Critical Roll DM ask for one before, but forgot the DnD term for it). Also, on your second picture,

They had to dump resources into fixing their fucked up game first, so that probably took over a year of developer time, alone. The Witcher 3 DLC was pretty much an Xpac of ye olden days length, so maybe this will be the same. Still, I hate most RPG DLCs because they put them in the middle of...

The best way to talk to police (no one gets shot):

I saw a post on the BG3 reddit about them last week, from one of the reddit mods (and we know how trustworthy those are). That they were suspected of using bots to do various things on reddit, like down voting anything negative posted about them and upvoting stuff directing to them. I tried to...

It does sound a bit like that too. I went more old school but defiantly Disney-esque, it gave me Jaffar from Aladdin-ish vibes:

That's what you get for reading them. I thought they were copy pasta. Bandwagon was actually being original! Also, obviously Lizard Aliens from under the sea (the voice track is a real call into the syndicated Art Bell radio show "Coast to Coast" in the 90s):

That music is defiantly the best in the game, and probably one of the most memorable in the past 15 years!

They have a lot of experience with this engine by now, so I am confident that they are chugging through it. AFAIK, they have not announced a release date yet, so probably 6+ months out still and who knows where their unstable internal build is at. With every game, the best course of action is...

A few states have/had laws where people could not pump their own gas for the safety of everyone involved, it is a "hazardous" material after all. There are a bunch of videos around the internet of people doing dumb shit at gas stations, so it kinda makes sense, although I am not sure what...

Some summons in the game are very strong. I didn't use the two undead summoning spells much, but the Necromancy of Thay book's The Planar Angle's smite does some decent damage and the upcasted (to 6) elementals (myrmidon) all have some bonus thing they can do (water can AoE heal, air can AoE...

May have been posted here earlier but don't remember if I saw it here or elsewhere:

So your saying the summoning failed, yet again?

Wat? A mile is 5280 feet which is roughly 161 atmospheres of pressure. For reference, 25,000 feet is 759 atmospheres of pressure.

Amazon warehouse is surprising. I thought they had people standing in their box, while machines go get everything, and camera's count how efficient each person is, but I guess someone has to load/unload the trucks and put them in the robot accessible racks/bins...for now.

According to the internets, someone official said, shortly after release, that FSR2 was going to be available at the end of August or beginning of October, so yea, it should be in that patch.

Yea, I would assume it's not a FedEx, UPS, or Amazon warehouse, but as people are saying on Reddit, maybe the warehouse knew about the thefts, but were waiting until they could hit him with a bigger charge to make it "worth" the police's time. Especially if they are in a jurisdiction where the...
