    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    Yeah thinking about my response a little more, this is probably the 40th CRPGish game I've played and the fourth Baldur's Gate Game I've played. I can imagine it being overwhelming for someone whose personal life hasn't either been spent playing a game or wishing they were playing a game.

    Sounds like a skill and learning issue.

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    Starfield is now my favorite Bethesda game ever.

    it's 100% shitpost, Oblivion ran like garbage when it came out.

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    The ship combat and space exploration is my #1 disappointment with the game. What's promising is that the ship combat mechanics aren't terrible once you git gud, it's just the design of the space parts don't support the kind of "Space Combat/Exploration: Bethesda Edition" gameplay mode we...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    I got a 500 credit UC bounty for God knows why last night. I entered UC space and was challenged, I hit the "Get Up" button and watched my character get out of their chair like a three toed sloth while the UC ships were sending me increasingly threatening warnings. By the time I could sit back...

    If you stacked gear that improves Spell Cast DC, I wonder if you'd be basically unresistable. Especially with this dagger. https://baldursgate3.wiki.fextralife.com/Rhapsody

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    I saw an NPC do that one time. They moved a couple guys together then threw a health pot. I was really surprised when it happened. I doubt they'll patch it.

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    Yep, there are so many games made by small devs that beat the snot outta what we grew up on.

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    That is quite a fucking outpost. I'm guessing that's Linnaeus IV-b, what kind of farmable plants/animals are on that planet? After making a mega outpost I think going too hard on outpost selection isn't advised. With some mods (specifically increasing the max outpost size, max Cargo Links, etc)...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    I'd only want to see them move ES6 to UE5 if it was semi-open and modable in the Unreal Editor (Or likely a new "Creation Kit" built on the Unreal Editor). This should be totally feasible with custom plugins and a custom engine. The value in BGS is the complete game that serves as a platform for...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    Agree on UE5. I wonder what portion of development is spent on trying to build a world-class gaming engine while Unreal Engine 5 is just pulling away from everyone while spending an order of magnitude more on their engine than is spent on most AAA games.

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    Would be cool if there were four basic tiers of factions: * UC: super strict, requires ship registration, licensing / dock fees etc for landing. Has access to unique tech. * Freestar: Less strict, requires ship registration for landing, but not licensing * Unaffiliated: Generally lawless, does...

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    That's the part that sucks. I have a handful of outposts off-world supplying resources like copper, tungsten, lubricant etc, and I can link them to my Cargo Link, get a shipment of hundreds of those and am set for the rest of the game with them. But then there are ~60 other resources to worry...

    Finished season 2, amazing show, looking forward to season 3.

    VoiceCel.org -- how Chad is your voice?

    In terms of audio signals I wonder how a powerful low voice like James Earl Jones would be differentiated from a rando dude speaking with a low voice.

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    I think even aside from resting abuse, BG3 would benefit from something that tells the player when an encounter is time / zone sensitive. Then a hard-mode could be added that ramps that up more, causing players to fail or receive buffed encounters if they rest.

    I've gotten to a point where I don't bother with most locks anymore.

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    A sweaty hard more in BG3 where strings of encounters had to be fought contiguously with no returning to camp, long-resting etc would be interesting, though it would eliminate a lot of interesting builds that rely on taking a nap after every tough fight.

    behold, after hours of carefully crafting a comprehensive factory I now have the power to build all the resources widely available for cheap from vendors.

    The amount of NPCs that start beefs with you as you're sprinting toward the next merchant is hilarious. Like they're from the EpicNPCMan / Viva la Dirt League universe and have been waiting for ten years of Starfield development to talk to you.

    I wish this game was like spore where you could get other players ship creations showing up in your game.

    Starfield - Fallout fallout that isn't ES6

    I doubt realism has been a huge driver for any decisions made about inclusion of content in starfield in the last year. All across the internet there are thousands of people talking about the key missing features of starfield, and their lists are unique.
