    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    Its going to take me forever to finish this game. I now have two runs going in parallel. One dark urge and one not. I am just having such a good time doing shit and approaching things from different angles. I still have yet to get out of Act 1.

    But that's the thing. CSR is by definition extremely repetitive and there's a limitation on what you need it to do. Coding a solution, for something, by comparison requires being able to accurately describe the use case and all edge cases to the AI you want to write this or that. But you need...

    I've yet to see AI taking over any coding jobs in the areas I work. No idea what you are talking about. ChatGPT/CoPilot/etc don't do it all for you. They can't know enough about your internal stuff to just do what you want without you spending many hours giving it very specific instructions...

    Wrath is great but Pathfinder character multi-classing on crack is really tarded. I don't mind multi-classing in general but I lean a lot more towards playing as a purist in most cases.

    Not on your character, on Lae'Zel so her follow up can be immediate while they are still surprised.

    Do you have the Alert Feat on her? It makes it so when your assassin opens up the fight she always has first initiative.

    Getting the jump on enemies and using the 2 surprised turns with an assassin can really help the situation. But at the end of the day straight Battlemaster is just so goddamn strong. Ranged or Melee trips/disarms and riposte destroy a lot of melee enemies. Double attacks per turn and so on. Its...

    Crowd control is your absolute greatest ally. Its quite clear you are just going ham with melee attacks and not using it. Are you using your bonus actions each turn as well? Just learn how to use the environment and especially items, throwing items, and shoving.

    I do SFDC development. Which is mostly just Java programming within the context of SFDC. Knowing its weirdness for development is where you make money. As I get like $130 an hour for it its very in and out which I prefer. Its very flexible. Admins are much more responsible for the day to day...

    Warlock is good so far. He is a decent melee who can also cast lots of AOE spells (hunger of hadar, storm of daggers). You can do this while still being okay melee is the strength. Lvl 5 with deepened pact he gets 2 attacks per round too.

    Its not as heavy on environment factors as the DND rules aren't as structured around them as DOS2 is. But you can still do the slippery ice and stuff. Being out of position can definitely rape you but you have a lot more tools to deal with it. Sprint actions, disengage, teleports, etc.

    This will be my second run too lol. This game my party ended up being: Great Old One Warlock - Githyanki (PC) - Gish/Pact of the Blade character. Works well. Lae'zel - Battlemaster fighter is really strong. Karlach Shadowheart (made her into a Lore Bard) Dark Urge Run: Crit focused...

    I don't know if any of you read the CRPG blog thread or if you remember from old BG2. BG2 had an extremely autistic and deep amount of spell triggers, protections, and so on. But its very complex and the base game doesn't make use of it. But mods do. There's this whole ecosystem of difficulty...

    I mean I don't expect something profound. BG2 was a stereotypical DND campaign. Be forced to run away from home for some reasons. Go on adventures. Meet weird characters who are good or bad. Slowly uncover the big bad. Become more powerful. Go on more quests and do more weird shit. Go cool...
