    Hmm, to read about BG3 while not playing... Reading about people playing BG3 is the closest thing to playing it... I don't want to spoil things... hmmm

    @Hateyou interesting, things evened out over time. I guess there was a huge spike in bandwidth at 11AM but now that it's almost primetime we're only at like 30% more than same time yesterday https://store.steampowered.com/stats/content/ meanwhile on Larian's website...

    That article showed a spike for halo infinite which almost hit 25,000 gbps. We're at almost 150,000 gbps now.

    an hour after release for me: I'm betting overall bandwidth will be higher in primetime USA. Would be cool to see global bandwidth usage from Steam, or some other metric to quantify how big of a clusterfuck BG3's release is to Steam servers

    There's a balance for sure. But for CRPGs I'm definitely on the extreme side of the bell curve of permissibility. If you're ambitiously trying to create a DND game, there should and will always be new abuses for players to use, and it's their responsibility to act as the DM and put a stop to it...

    I kinda like it when games don't even have a way to level-grind, like Baldur's Gate does. It makes exploring the actual content more rewarding when everything is a one-time opportunity to grow your characters, compared to knowing that the quest you just did, while interesting, gave 10% the...

    If it makes you feel better, I never played DoS1/2 or Pillars of Eternity and probably never will.

    Wow i didn My man Heko is over here in the Lllano Estacado thinking, "Where the hell is the fiber?" Sucks that Starlink isn't ready for you yet. They're yeeting up satellites all the time, here's to hoping it gets better soon!

    I definitely prefer singleplayer games that can be cheesed over games that risk inconveniencing players with ways to stop cheese.

    I think they deleted my joke about it on Am I too late for Oakwynd? | EverQuest Forums where I said that there would be a lot of new characters rolling on Oakwynd after yesterday.

    Year 2 of Space Exploration concluded with some 500ish hours in. I just unlocked the Space Elevator and decided to put the game down until next year. This is easily the hardest, longest and most complex game I've ever played. The depth of the tech tree, variety of components and complexity of...

    I read a little bit about the drama with the publication for this. Nobel prizes can only be split among 3 people, and more than 3 people want credit, so there's some competition from the individuals responsible who are publishing results and trying to solidify their name as being a key...

    not sure if this is the latest tool to use but I used EE Keeper Project for decades.

    It'd be fine for the reasons Vorph stated. There's good itemization in BG for a large variety of weapons. Maces/flails are very powerful in particular. I don't really agree with this. Going through BG1/2 on normal mode and without the stupid mods I play with you can pretty much set your party...

    Why do you think this? I sometimes wonder how big releases impact absurdly massive servers. I wonder how much of a blip Steam gets every week from big game releases and how much it changes bandwidth compared to say, EST 6PM when Americans get home from work and power up their PCs and get...

    @Rajaah recently first-timed BG1 and posted a bunch on it. I'd recommend just reading his blog thread and instead playing BG3 with us. But he goes into class choice in the second post of this thread: Rajaah's CRPG Blog He went paladin which is a solid choice.

    From some brief interviews he said he was completely cut out of the loop. So who knows. Kinda weird since he's literally the only voice actor most fans care about for BG3. I'm surprised no fans confronted them on it. I wonder how good elevenlabs' Minsc voice is...

    I just did a little digging. Rumor is that he's either too old to do the work (which might require some animation work for whatever reason) or it's because of some martial abuse bullshit and he got #metoo'd by his wife on some allegations that the judge threw out.
