    Investing General Discussion

    My office is straight up closing 4 of our offices and going all-in on just having one in the Bay Area where the C-Suite live. As they determined that the only thing they absolutely needed was a venue for a few big events a year, some team get togethers, and a permanent site for managing company...

    Ancient Civilizations

    I think that if such a place existed it would be reasonable that they simply built ontop of it rather than built the entire thing themselves. But really. By all accounts Plato was carrying over a story he heard elsewhere. That if we follow the forensic evidence of the African Humid Period. Had...

    I mean really. Just play what you want. It should all be viable short of Unfair/Tactician where you have to make certain decisions to not gimp yourself.

    World of Warcraft: Classic

    If you don't understand how the existence of such a tool would dramatically warp player behavior I don't know what to tell you. You removed the aspect of the game that was about wandering around and finding other like minded players to play with you to overcome obstacles. As you systematized...

    Most likely going Sword Bard then. Storm Sorcerer looks cool though as well. Will be reclassing my companions.

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    So I guess the question then is if the story is driven by the Player Character. Rather than the Origin Characters. Like in DOS2 if you did a custom character the various storylines just ignored you because you weren't an origin character. Will that be the case here?

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    Thank god. They went the DOS2 route them them. BG2 Minsc was technically a Ranger but he had all the fighter stats and feats... I never understood it. He also had a ton of STR.

    If doing this, is the bard flavor better than Arcane Trickster? I'm torn between: Wild Magic lol barbarian Sword Bard Arcane Trickster Fungus Druid

    Why do you pick Cleric on first usually? I just can't help but going melee in the first run of these games.

    Durr maps from 2500 years ago aren't as accurate as modern maps. Is this the connection you're making?

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    I mean this is silly. What you are getting at is that race in high fantasy should be irrelevant. Nobody forces you to be a min maxing powergamer but you act like that's the default way to play.
  21. TJT

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    It's just another stepping stone along the way of races being nothing more than a cosmetic decision that don't effect anything the game has to offer in any way. Which detracts from a high fantasy DND adventure that is based on the tabletop experience.

    Ancient Civilizations

    I'm saying that the name persisted through the ages for some reason. I have no idea what Richat is but since its still visible and not just a non-starter under a mountain of sand its one of the most obvious things to look at. My position is that I have absolutely zero doubts there was some...

    Because the very idea that names of things get distorted over millennia and multiple civilizations is just ridiculous yeah?

    Bro, how much tabletop have you played? Or any RPGs in the DND setting in general? Having every character being able to do everything defeats the purpose of a ROLE PLAYING GAME. Yes my halfling ranger can drive the story because he is able to join the Lone Rangers of Hobbitville... because...

    I think it's cool he sticks to RPG and was a huge EQ nerd. But he is a cuck fag otherwise. He caved to some leftists and wont even say "dude" on stream anymore because its somehow offensive.

    Ancient Civilizations

    I'll maintain my open minded skepticism on the matter. Logically, an advanced civilization trading with whoever at the time had to be near some body of water. The Saharan humid period left the area kind of like the US fertile plains with rivers as far as I've read. Lake GigaChad might be a...

    Ancient Civilizations

    Okay then you feel that sufficient investigation in the area was done? Case closed? Like I have absolutely zero doubts that some civilization of some kind lived on the Sahara back when it was green and lush. But any actual evidence of them today is most likely under a mountain of sand and being...

    Ancient Civilizations

    Not sure if you read the "drunk man in the lamplight" argument here but the very reason we have such strong research into the Middle East and stuff is because the Western powers exerted great influence over the area. We had scholars digging around in Iraq, Egypt, etc for centuries piecing things...

    Ancient Civilizations

    I think this is a misconception. Any trade routes they had to Europe or whatever would have been with civilizations that predate what is known today. The whole point is that it shouldn't exist and disrupts the 5k years ago Mesopotamia narrative. Whatever civilizations and whatever you want to...

    Ancient Civilizations

    This is what I had thought as well but it seems the argument is more that the Western Sahara region wasn't so much right up on the coast but a flood marsh kind of area full of rivers and tributaries that fed into the sea. Rather than a coastal port town.

    Chris is just being obtuse. When you have maps from the 16th century that somehow have the African interior even marginally correct despite the fact that we absolutely know the timeline of when Western/Middle Eastern civilizations actually explored the African interior you must conclude that...

    This is something I just don't understand. It's even more retarded for D4. If someone degenerately poopsocks 400 hours in two weeks to get all of the super legendary awesome items for a season and crushes uber Lillith in 10 seconds.... Can't really say old broski didn't earn that. Poor Timmy...
