    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    I played Morrowind through numerous times, but going from that to Oblivion was so disappointing that I stopped at around 50% and never went back. I might have made it through 60% of Skyrim vanilla before growing bored, but mods really fixed most of it's problems and completed it on a later...

    Well, a sorcerer could run on feelings, where their "blood" knows the magic words and they manifest themselves through high stress moments, like combat. After combat, the idiot sorc wouldn't even remember what he said or how he cast it. It would mean the character couldn't do magic outside of...

    I don't think Farmers, Millers, Butchers, and woodworkers are leveling up and getting more hp/combat abilities in DnD. For all the other stuff, it's a world full of magic. Plenty of magic to keep people in line without "subjugating" them like slaves. If you're set on trying to game this out...

    If you are a Loth male drow, then you would have been squid-napped from your second class citizen life, however that happened. Male Loth drow were still slavers and were of a much higher station to actual slaves of other races; a.k.a. they would have been considered "masters." They are just...

    I think Starlink has the option of putting in geo cords where your house/service will be located (you may need to use their app for this), then you use your CC billing location to set up for mailing address. Cell phone tethering or using a cell router with a sim card in it, is a decent backup...

    So, you are trying to figure out how a bunch of women, that are given powers by their ebil spider loving god, can dominate men who don't receive said powers or, if they are born with talents, are killed as children unless they somehow demonstrate their subservience?

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    Yar. Gamepass always seems like the best deal for new game, if it's available. Even at the full price of $10 for 30 days, it should be plenty of time to get through a game once, then wait for a sale in 6 months to a years time. At worst, the game's sale price is only $10 off, and you pay the...

    All of Act 3 had that problem for me and changing GFX options didn't do anything. Reloading and zoning seemed to be what affected it the most, and yea, I would need to restart the game once my frames hit 10 FPS. It usually took me a while for it to bog down though, less than an hour seems really...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Why? I'm not some dumbass that drives in areas where my extremely hot heads/exhaust/breaks are touching highly flammable material. I have also never taken such poor care of my car that it had a gas or oil leak that would pose a fire hazard.

    Total War: Warhammer

    While not as extreme as that, I am also having a difficult time getting into WH3. I don't think I have even completed 1 game. All the new races feel incomplete when compared to the WH2 races and the closest I came to finishing a game was a Tomb Lords playthrough. I am hoping a few years of...

    Same. The only fights I found memorably difficult (on Tactician) were the ones at the end of the game. That's not to say I didn't burn some rez scrolls and use the shit out of a hireling casting deathward (looking at you, Gale). As an aside, I finally finished the game and

    Taking a guess, it will probably end up like Firefly and become a "hit" well after it's airing date. Andor was luckier than Firefly, in that they got a two year commitment from the start, to tell their whole story. I am still a bit concerned that the writer's strike will give Disney an...

    If you don't want them using your data (and they will/are), then you need to set up local storage. If you have an old computer laying around, you could use it and pop in a new HD made for continuous recording (like the Western Digital purple line), but it will probably hog more energy than a...

    Inventory clutter finally got the better of me and I went looking for mod solutions. This bag mod seemed like the best I could find. Just tested it and it looks to be in working order. The only weird thing that happened is when I put the Book of Thay in a book bag, I couldn't remove it from the...

    Lae'zel, sitting in the rafters of the goblin fort, was snipin dudes with that pike, but about 20% of the time it wouldn't return to her and I would be SOL (needing to spend an action to equip a new weapon). Then, after getting to act 2 there weren't nearly as many opportunities to use it, so it...

    There is a mod that put Ultima 6 into the Dungeon Siege engine, if you want something a little different. I couldn't really get into it, but a lot of people seemed to like it.

    In chapter 1 it felt like everyone was coming on strong. Even Hal when he gets into camp makes sexually suggestive comments if you exhaust his dialog. Maybe you are just autistic and don't pick it up! Let see, for me: Asterion didn't make it past the first time he tried to bite me, so no clue...

    Respec mods make character creation and mistakes while leveling in Pathfinder much less punishing. Also, novices to Pathfinder don't need to (shouldn't) play the hardest two difficulties and a pure one-class-build party is fine for normal. Even on the hardest difficulty, you don't need to use...

    To test multi bard/wiz I speced into wiz as a bard around level 6 and it gives you separate books; so you can not use bard casts on wiz spells, from what I saw. In tactical difficulty, I haven't had an issue with AoE as Div Wiz Gale. I use almost every slot on Missiles, Scorching (rarely), and...

    Anyone use the hireling Maddala Deadeye (Asian looking woman)? While sitting in camp, mine ends up dead every day and I have to keep using a rez scroll on her when I long rest... I keep wondering if this is due to me "killing" Asterion, but I just made it to Baldur's Gate and no other hints...

    I liked the first South Park game, but the second one used references from "newer" seasons that I didn't watch (I only watched the first 10 seasons or so), so I'm not sure I even made it 50% through before quitting.

    Only the launcher checks the drivers. Skip the Larian launcher, by using the "bg3_dx11.exe" or "bg3.exe" to start the game!

    This has always been the power curve in DnD. Low levels are melee dominated, high levels are caster dominated, and the midrange they are relatively close. If the game was going to 18 - 20, you would see the casters just dominate the melee in end game (well at least in Pathfinder & 3.5e, dunno...
