Decided to check out the new approach towards charge-up & discharge mechanics of the Assassin class. I also want to gather the full Natalya's Odium set armor, which I have never done before. The challenge will be not using the Fade skill at all, instead focusing on Burst of Speed (this should...

That's so cool to see you here, Isaac! I wish lots of success to Sovereign Syndicate! How big is your team at Crimson Herring Studios? How will you handle combat (if there is any combat) in this game?

Well, this was quite a show. Seeing the band Hunter performing live. I don't remember when I listened to some quality metal music during a stream showing an RPG before. ;) What else? The panel showcased some neat updates coming to BG 3. Thanks to Hunter, I think I know now why Larian nailed it...

I've been replaying Skyrim these last few months, and while at first, I had gone with the vanilla version, then I added a few mods as explained 1 month ago. Since then, I've added many, many more mods to the game. I didn't add gameplay-altering stuff, or stuff that makes Skyrim look like the...

Black Pits 1 - caps at level 10, not at an XP level. This is 160k for rogues/bards, 250k for mages/sorcerers, 450k for clerics/monks, 500k for fighters/barbarians, 125k for druids and 600k for paladins/rangers. Black Pits 2 - caps at level 40 (maximum)

Amazing arguments, @WarChiefZeke and @InGameScientist (welcome to the Tavern, very happy to see you-- feel free to always promote your streams and videos here btw)!

Sounds awesome! What is the gameplay like? What game(s) is it similar to? How much story is there? Is there any element of randomness in the game? How vast is it?

Has anyone played this game yet? Wildermyth, an RPG that is not that crazily popular (yet?), was named the Best RPG of 2021 by PC Gamer. At that time, I was puzzled by this decision, as they voted for Wildermyth instead of Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous. According to one of the comments...

Yeah, I can feel you there. I guess that's why @alice_ashpool wanted a melee character for an extra challenge - so that there was always a risk of losing it all in one second at any point. I guess I don't agree with the game's default approach not to allow you a Death Door state first. Losing...

One Piece, Dragon Ball, Naruto, and Bleach were at one point known as “the big four” in anime and manga circles. They earned this reputation not only due to their immense popularity, but also their influence and ability to run for years, even decades. One Piece has just celebrated its 25th...

Steam wishlist numbers are the most useful for many PC developers as they're a metric everyone will have access to, especially non-AAA developers. https://www.akuparagames.com/2019/07/17/why-steam-wishlists-are-important/...

I'm happy to see Stray on top of the Steam wishlist charts. I remember that game was announced along with big guns like Horizon Forbidden West, and yet it managed to stay in the spotlight, even as an indie game. The Stray project is about a ginger stray cat lost in a huge abandoned cyberpunk...

Good news from BioWare, for a change. https://www.videogameschronicle.com/news/the-writer-behind-deus-ex-has-joined-bioware/

Noooo, no! Eldritch Scoundrels are so fun to play indeed. I enjoyed one before trying out a Thundercaller in P:K. I read a few threads online explaining that Eldritch Scoundrels are not interesting enough compared to other classes, or not powerful enough, but man oh man, they are good rogues...

Ohhhh! Geneforge 1 - Mutagen is currently free on the EGS. It's an indie cult-classic created by Spiderweb Software, a studio founded in 1994 by Jeff Vogel. Since then, he has written many fantasy RPGs, including the Exile, Geneforge, Avadon, and Avernum series and Nethergate: Resurrection...

How have you been doing? Any new adventures in Faerun?

🤣🤦‍♂️ https://comicbook.com/gaming/news/ea-tweet-single-player-games-reactions/ Not even saying that the MEME is sexist, I think. https://www.sportskeeda.com/pop-culture/what-she-s-10-meme-taking-social-media-netizens-rank-partners-red-flags As David Gaider eloquently put it:

In the edge-case scenario, I guess you can handle that Grond0-style. Try looking at it as an RNG-based game factor affecting your playthrough. But sure, it sucks (if you lose the companion story & quests due to a bug).

Maybe, sure. There might be some blame on the creator. But there surely is a lot of blame on those people who posted that stuff. That's unforgivable and silly, and it happens so frequently. If one can't be "all positive and good", then at least, be constructive with your feedback, not aggressive...

A bit of self-deprecating humour from Larian here. That's good. A new patch will soon be announced (maybe they'll add a bard or a paladin). But they have to ask themselves: after confirming the 2023 release date previously, what effect will a big patch announcement hype bring?
