I liked Pillars 2 more than 1, but on release it had some issues (although I don't remember specifics anymore). Since they fixed some of those issues with DLC or just patches, I keep meaning to go back to give it a replay. I started with Pillars 1, a couple years ago, with the goal of playing...

Xan isn't turrable, but he is more of a crowd controller than a damage dealer. He is also one of the potential companions where, if you turn them down (and leave the area?) they will disappear from the game, but if you hire him, you can immediately kick them and they will stay where you left...

You don't have multiple saves? Go back, kick Minsc from the party before he attacked you (it's time based, if he is in the party, as he gets sick of waiting for you to help). Go straight for Dyna, then go back and get Minsc, dunno if it will work, but maybe. Edit: Looked it up, and you might...

In BG1 the companions should stay where you disband them. It's best to probably leave them at the Inn or a place you will be going back and forth too, a few time. The only exceptions to this are the 4 Beamdog added companions, which go back to where you recruited them, I think. From the Wiki...

This goes through all the custom race features and leader creation magic books. Figured I would just skim it, and ended up watching the whole thing. It looks like it will help give the game some legs, after the campaigns are done.

An extra premade to play with two classes early probably wont hurt. You get a druid/fighter duel class fairly early, which should be better, and you can compare right off. I would still recommend replacing with a companion when the party gets full, but you wont have to make that call until a...

An abomination!!! I feel personally insulted reading this.

You can rotate characters, but I'm not sure there is an Inn in the first chapter. Also, you may be nerfing yourself, as the first half of chapter 1 should be designed around 4 or less characters. With a full party, you will be splitting that XP 6 ways, instead of the designed 3/4 ways. Since you...

This isn't Elden Ring where the combat is the whole point and the story is an afterthought. The story and NPCs are one of the best parts of the game. Making your own party sounds like the worst choice a person could make. I didn't even think/remember that you could hire "mercenaries," as I would...

Ah, right. I quit Shadowlands in season 1 as well.

The real power creep, in DF, is crafted items, in which every M+16 or higher gives a shard, that when you combine 10 of them together, you can use it to craft a 418 item. M+ drops are scaling higher this season/xpac (up to 405), but not better than 2/3s of the heroic raid (402 to 411). They...

It all applies to the enhanced editions. The Throne of Bhaal is the BG2 xpac that ends the story and is part of the BG2EE base game. Although there was probably a separate guide for it, when it was originally released. I read somewhere, long long ago, that duel classing and multiclassing in DnD...

The fights are the same, less party members means more XP per member, but most of the original companions are good to great. So, it would be silly to not have a full 6. You will hit the level cap by the end, regardless. You can export your character and some items (there is a super special...

Fresh air, exercise, white snow, white people, a super fun slide down a frickin mountain; what's not to love?

The only Sorcerer in BG1 is an evil chaotic one added by Beamdog for the EE edition, as the Sorcerer class was not originally in BG1. I'm not sure I would recommend him as generally, the content added by Beamdog is not up to the same standards as the original content. So, for MC options, if...

To add to what Hatrade said: Sorcerer is good, if you know what spells are good and can make sure to pick them all up. It allows for less resting, which can make a quality of life difference in dungeons. As for what to pick, it depends on how many spoilers you want. You could look up all the...

As long as they promote exclusive deals, I wont use their service. I have been tempted to make an account, a few times, by free game offers but still continue to hold out.

We didn't usually put the bar down until we were 10 to 20 foot off the ground. Many, if not most, lifts have a footrest on the bar that felt good to rest your skis on, for the trip up the mountain. I have skied almost every place in Colorado, and I don't remember any lift that didn't have a...

I thought that happened in the Mando episodes of Boba Fett? I didn't rewatch any of the Fett show and it wasn't interesting enough, outside of the Mando stuff, to even be memorable, so, it all kinda blends together.

Clay mitts are so much easier than using a bar that it's worth the cost of $25. Plus, if you drop the mitt, you can usually wash it off. Also, wax is subpar protection, unless you like waxing every 6 months, at the latest. There are some "cheep" ceramic coating you can do yourself that should...

Well, I have more faith in the French to make it well, than I would Hollywood of the last 30 years. They can make it different in tone, and still keep it close to the book; which may be interesting. I never read the book, but some reviews of the 1973 movie say that they mostly added some humor...

The story may have greatly outshone it, but I liked PS:T game mechanics. I liked the way they did the nameless one's class selection and deaths. I liked the itemization. I really liked the Planescape worlds and Morte is one of my favorite characters in any game I ever played. Tides had none of...

Are you asking if a word can have multiple meanings? I guess I wasn't joking then, that writer is no veteran at all!

Are you sure about that about that?

When you are bad at your job, do you get to still wear the veteran at it moniker? Of the three episodes I have seen, that she has written, all of them were complete shit.

So, they are trying to repeat the Thunderbird fiasco? GG Ford suits.

Expectations were low, so I guess it's not like it could get much worse. Here is the "veteran" TV producer/writer sole showrunner:

Todd Howard is the most honest man in entertainment and all your dreams are going to come true!

They keep trying to make new ones, and always fail to top the 1973 version; but it's not their fault, as who can compete with this cast:

These are manuals, not guides. The digital copies you have should have them in pdf format. If not, you should be able to find scans of them around the internets. Edit: for example, here is that Throne of Bhaal manual: https://www.mocagh.org/bioware/baldur2-bhaal-manual.pdf

Expectations were defiantly a part of it. They marketed it as a spiritual successor to Planescape: Torment, and tried to ride the nostalgia train of one of the most lauded RPGs of all time. Then that shit backfired on them in a huge way and it was their fault for trying to hype their game in...

I wouldn't recommend Tides to anyone. All the other games on your list I found enjoyable, but Tides was a boring mess and waste of time. If you play all of the other games, and still have time to fill, I would recommend one of the Pathfinder games, over Tides, even if you have already paid for...

Genre(s): 4X Developer: Triumph Studios Publisher: Paradox Interactive Release Date: May 2, 2023 Best gameplay I could find, somewhat annoying to have the picture in picture set up they chose to go with: Store Page:

Allowing fighters to have hyperdrive, in the lore, was probably a mistake, but it's safe to assume that anyone using them for long trips is stocked up on adult diapers.

If what you listed is what you have, then yea: BG1 (if you have the GoG originals, you can bring it into BG2 engine for quality of life improvements using a different mod, made for the original) BG2 Planescape: Torment Icewind Dale Evaluate where you are, time wise. If you feel you are...

I have played BG1 and BG2 vanilla once each, then both in BG2 engine through BG:TUTU (before the EE were made), then BG:EET, a few years ago. BG:EET was really simple, and if you wanted to add more mods, it looked easy enough, but I don't recall adding anything else. The BG:EET mod says you can...
