Just one tiny suggestion, what Skyrim lacks is good NPC interaction and dialogue, and stuff like romance. It's an exploration game first and foremost, but I started missing that kind of thing after a while, as it has always been an essential part of RPGs for me. If that's the case for you, you...

I wasn't using any mods at all until I installed a mod that makes Brynjolf available for recruitment and for a relationship, because it bothered me that in a game where you can marry all those merchants and mercenaries, the most interesting person I've met so far (except for Aela the huntress)...

I was busy over the weekend, should have clarified I didn't mean "balance" in the way of "not too difficult for any class/character/player skills" but referring to design of all game mechanics etc, in the way @Antimatter expressed much more precisely.

I don't mean to derail the topic completely, but I don't think a game can be 100% well designed for both combat options, even if it's technically possible. Correct me if I'm wrong, if anyone knows how games are made (I don't), but I can't imagine you plan the setup of a fight the same way if you...

I agree with alice that real time combat is more realistic, but the realistic part of the game is the story to me, not necessarily the combat. I can enjoy an engaging story and look at combat as a board game, where I can keep a clear head, move pieces about, look at the turn order and decide...

Uncle Wrex wants a glowing monocle. Okay to add a more serious reply: This looks really promising. I like the setting, the graphics style, the cool combination of sci-fi tech and fantasy, and hope that Warhammer background knowledge won't be required.

This thread was an interesting view into the early history of a game series I have never played... thanks for sharing!

Dúathil the Bosmer, Skyrim Anniversary Edition Just a few impressions from my latest adventures with the Thieves' Guild since the last update. Maven Black-Briar sent me to Whiterun to ruin and take over a meadery by dropping (harmless) poison into the production right before an official control...

Sounds indeed like an Easter Egg, but the only bell it rings for me is El Cid, the Spanish hero from medieval times, which probably has nothing to do with it. But I don't know the Final Fantasy games at all, so I wouldn't recognize a reference if you hit me over the head with it. I only...

Hey, finally some familiar faces, Mindflayers, Bahamut, and a flying ship! Well, and that Marilith above, although I don't know if it was labeled as one. I remember they scared me me more than Demogorgon when I first met them (Baldur's Gate 2 Watcher's Keep final fight with Ascension). Too many...

I can't believe I forgot about Companion Cube, shame on me.

Thanks for the insights. She's definitely mature enough not to turn into a murderer to solve her problems ;)

Fair enough. I can't imagine playing an RPG without listening, but that's probably because I have stopped replaying games after the revelation how many great unplayed ones are out there. Even when I played Baldur's Gate games repeatedly, I wanted the sound at least in one ear, to notice an...

I have to admit I have never heard of these games... the first one looks scary, do you actually have human females like that on your planet? Seriously, I might be spoiled by some games, but nowadays I can't really imagine non-speaking characters to feel fleshed out to me, I think it's such a...

Heavy story is alright, I think. When I said I'd have to check first if it's age appropriate, she snickered and said that when watching movies or shows, she probably has less sensitivity issues than me. She might not be entirely wrong.

I know you're all adults here (or at least I think so), but any idea if this is okay to watch with a (mature and smart) 13-year-old? My daughter is a huge anime fan and suggested watching something together, but was unsure what I might like, so I mentioned what was shared here and she said some...

Hey, nice to see you back with a new update! Good luck on your path to become a Simbani warrior... the dinosaur and the giant ant looked quite threatening!

Take that back, Candleblood. I love Jaheira. She's a true friend, badass, sincere, loyal, and carries her pain with a lot of strength. If you don't see that, you don't deserve her support. Send her my way, we'll team up and even the Five will tremble in fear. 🙃

It's good that you labeled the image as a skill tree, because I wondered if it's a star chart for a sci-fi universe or a circuit board. Odd especially for a game that otherwise looks purely action-focused to make it so complex... good luck to you.
