    What game are you currently playing?

    I've decided to come back to Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice. I played this game for ~5 hours in 2021 because of all the industry recommendations. I enjoyed the binaural sound (one NEEDS to play this in headphones) and found the whole setting unique. Throughout the game, Senua suffers from...

    What's the last game you've finished?

    I finished Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective, an HD remaster for PC of a DS game from 2011 (the playthrough took ~15 hours). I played the demo during the Steam Next Fest, and had no concerns buying it when it released. It's a story-heavy puzzle game where you play as a dead (?!) detective...

    Sure, from their FAQ: Can I change the class of the Origin characters when I recruit them? Not during Early Access, but we are planning to provide that option at launch.

    I'd wanted to link an article about the U.S. Federal Trade Commission trial for a while, and finally found the one I'd consider a deep insight into the game industry. First, read this piece by Kotaku: https://kotaku.com/microsoft-sony-console-exclusive-call-of-duty-starfield-1850591066...

    Baldur's Gate III News

    On a different note, when someone says about the so-called "Larian writing" in BG3, here is something to consider. In addition to their previous writing team, Larian got Lawrence Schick for BG3. Schick created White Plume Mountain in 1979, an adventure module for the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons...

    Baldur's Gate III News

    You can hear the voice of that actor from this short video reminding of the initial Larian approach towards narration (before they switched to Amelia Tyler). However, I dug deeper. Joshua Wichard claimed 4203 lines had been recorded, which is just a fraction of what other VO actors involved...

    Welcome to the Tavern, @Stanislavsky! I've heard so many good things about Citizen Sleeper. What do you think of it?

    Does this sound like the main character will be getting full VO?

    Is there a character/line/frequency limit for posts?

    Maximum post length is 10000 characters. Any draft can be saved for 120 hours. The minimum time between messages is 30 seconds. You won't be considered a spambot for posting frequently. Overall, @JustKneller - don't think about restrictions, think about possibilities. Post when and how you...

    The context matters. Like, we wouldn't be happy if the word was used towards another habitue. The Golf clap has been changed to the Applause now.

    What game are you currently playing?

    The Steam Next Fest still has 1.5 days left. I'm playing as many demos as I could. Here are a few highlights: Broken Roads. I mentioned this game as my first pick in the thread about games I'm looking forward to in November 2021. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1403440/Broken_Roads/...

    The Candlekeep Annex: RPed Baldur’s Gate No and Low Reload Adventures

    Nah, it's ok. No grammar nazis here, and lots of non-native English speakers. It shouldn't matter much these days anyway. I appreciate your reports and the sense of humour you put into them. ;)

    Games you're looking forward to

    Both games look dope, going to try them out this weekend. I finally had a chance to sit down and play for ~1 hour without distractions. I have to repeat, Stray Gods: The Roleplaying Musical looks AND sounds just so sweet. The demo is longer compared to the version from the beginning of May...

    How do you feel about tabletop?

    We completed Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition with SCS in MP with @Xzarloxara and a few other people from the forums a few years ago. We play Heroes of Might & Magic 3 from time to time as well. I played The Elder Scrolls Online with @shmity72 and then later with @Urdnot_Wrex. So, apparently...

    How do you feel about tabletop?

    I come from that region/country where tabletop D&D wasn't popular, so I literally didn't even know about D&D before trying out BG2 back in 2000. So Baldur's Gate games became my window into the world of D&D. I played them with my friends, so that was our "D&D at home" variant. Later on, when I...

    The Core of Diablo

    PC Gamer took a firm stance on D4 and their editors continue in the same vein. Just brutal here: https://www.pcgamer.com/the-way-i-used-to-enjoy-diablo-games-has-been-replaced-and-it-sucks/ "Diablo gave rise to the entire action RPG genre, and it's basically been all downhill from there.

    The Candlekeep Annex: RPed Baldur’s Gate No and Low Reload Adventures

    I very much share the principle behind SCS. "SCS plays fair" from the mod description. That's also how I try to play games myself. @Serg_BlackStrider is spot on in his observation that the achievement itself is not that important, it's the way there. I appreciate the effort it took you to play...
