Very nice. I haven't made it there just yet, but it is awesome to see that there are challenges and great rewards yet to come!

I stopped playing my save for act 3 (still in the first part) until the next big patch that is supposedly coming soon. I have a 13900k with a 4090 and after a few hours it starts stuttering dropping to below 20fps at times. It also impacts cut scenes, dialogue, and checks. Outright skipping some of them. It is also there for Act 2. When I finished that act I had played for at least 5-6 hours before I got to the end, and I noticed it started lagging. There are cut scenes that happen when you finish a certain part there, and one just didn't play for me and the other only showed around 50% of it as it kept loading/black screen while I heard music in the background. (I didn't know I had missed some of them until I saw that part on a stream)
In act 3 there are apparently lots of bugs in quests where if you don't (accidentally unless using guides which I don't do) do them in the perfect manner, you can break them which also dominoes to later quests in the act.

i wish they'd fix being able to dip out of multiplayer games. "send the multiplayer guy who can't make it to camp". or the ability to dip-in playing the NPC's or something.
i had some homies playing a 3 man game last night. i can't play with them often but i thought i'd spend a few hours playing a wizard with the boys.
nope. if i jump in. t hey forever have rando the turd in their party, can't remove it. can't do NPC quests, can't b ring NPC in party. weird design choice. shocked they haven't fixed it in 2 years of folks bitching about it.

What is crazy is that I feel like I am going slow and trying to explore everything. I think I am over 70 hours in. I failed a lot of fights because I don't know shit about D&D. I am just starting to understand what spells do what and how they synergize with each other. The whole reason I won that fight I talked about above was because during that last attempt I used...
Kereska's Favour which is why Gale was the last one standing.

sorcerers use charisma, not intelligence. sorcerers don't "learn" magic, they innately know it. it'd be like wondering how a dog is able to differentiate creatures by smell. on paper that sounds like it would require some decent intelligence, but even for smart dogs, i wouldn't give them an intelligence over 3

Be honest. This isn't the first time you have had this exact conversation, is it?

all casters can use either a component pouch or a focus (wand, staff, orb, etc). if you're using a focus then it negates any component that doesn't have a specifically mentioned gold cost (revivify requires diamonds worth 300gp, which is then consumed by the spell). most combat spells don't require material components with a gold cost, and that's all i used him for. i did give him proficiency in cartography though, which was great. i told the party i was mapping out where we had been and then when they inevitably asked to look at the map i showed them some toddler's finger paintings.

no, i had this exact conversation when i created the character. i was expecting a minor amount of push back from the DM, but it was a one shot so rules were pretty loosey goosey, but he immediately was like, "i love it" and i didn't have to convince him it would work
