I saw this the other day and thought it was trippy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Oregon_Trail_(1936_film) Not the flick, cause that's lost, but the poster... pretty wild! lol It made me think that a cool concept for a game would be like something like the Lost Reels on that, and a cool...

Cool vid! I wanted to resurrect this thread as well the other day, but then I couldn't find it with the quick scan around, so I dumped my silly alignment chart in the Off Topic section instead hehe. In any case alignment's been on the mind again, so it was nice to see that hop to the top! A...

BG3 Damage Chromatics Tried to create some oppositional binaries for a visual aid table. A simplified unified equation, so that it would all make more sense... Force in contraposition to psychic, radiant to necrotic, fire to cold, thunder/sonic to lighting/electric that sort of thing...

Totally! Hehe ETW was so fantastic! I mean like I can remember it being so bugged that my entire strategy for the first 3 dozen or so campaigns was to build nothing but line infantry and a single cannon unit, and then (regardless of faction) sending it all either to India or the Americas to...

Well 3rd time wasn't the charm lol Issue this time was that when I flung all the bombs and barrels and whatnot from Shadowheart's inventory half of them scattered to the near side of the pillars. I wanted to reposition the larger kabooms and so drank a potion of invisibility but then got...

I wouldn't stress it. Took me like 3 and half years to actually get into this game lol. For the whole rest of the time I thought it might be the worst thing to ever happen to Baldur's Gate lol. I legit thought it would probably tank the whole franchise and the legacy, from the janky party...

I think we should be pretty good to go now for the Rivington antics. I found 2 more Dins, HM Sorcerer saves from last year. They're both already past the coronation, but least the saves all worked. Takes some of the pressure off when we die or fail to achieve. :) Red Eye Din was underlevelled...

And for a bonus, I noticed that I had a very old HM save from one of the early Red eye'd Dins. From like right after honour mode first dropped I suppose, just ready to roll, down there at the bottom of the savedgames. It was Xah Din with an X, one of the Bronzy Dragons! With almost the entire...

Gave it the old college try, but I think we were short by maybe a dozen smoke powder grenades. Our burst knocked him down to about 100 HP and Ravengard down to about 10 HP, but not quite enough for the one shot. I popped a potion of vigilance beforehand but even with the Dex gloves, not quite...

ps. I think it was the Archmage Rubikus, who first proposed mapping the planes in this way, as a box within a box, folding back in on itself... :)

So this was my attempt to explain the Great Wheel to somebody without using the wheel, instead just keeping it to the simplified tic tac toe arrangement more familiar from the way the Alignment system is usually presented... I thought it was pretty solid hehe Main points being to use the...

Reflecting on my dips So I think I have a kind of tier list for the various Multi-Classed Dins, based mostly on my spellcaster playstyle. I still think Wizard Dip is tough to top here. No other dip is going to give us the option for casting spells at the Character lvl right on the power...

Back on track! This time we're not going to get caught slippin' at Wyrm's Rock! I traded out the Pink Adamantine armor for the Yuan-Ti Scale Mail. Immediately dyed it Black, or as close as we could get... lol Fingers crossed! hehe

Another run with a very similar trajectory... Cyan eye'd Din got thoroughly caught up in his torch romance with Karlach, and just made a terrible decision running on impulse lol We had it all lined up, the main Runepowder kaboom from Wulbren, something like 30 smoke powder grenades, a backup...

ps. somehow this makes it even sadder for me.... Like how long have the Ghosts been haunting my queue? lol I legit told myself I would buy the PS5 and get it for that on a disc, but I never did! I am also having a similar issue mentioned by others of awkwardly trying to get the most out of...

Yeah this is definitely a bizarro and uncannily recent development for me. It's a very knee jerk reaction, which is why I find it kinda strange. Usually I am more generous and less reflexive about it, but I think it might have been related to just the way it's presented in trailer form. Of...

Random rambles, to sorta fit the thread. I think I will call this idea 'the Uncanny Ditches' hehe So I didn't buy anything yet for the Steam sale, I keep going back poking around, window shopping, and then bailing on it at the last second lol. Last night again, I was mulling over whether to...

"The honourable adventurer fights with more mettle than most, but they die like any other" Of course it would be the Dragon to burst our bubble! lol We fought hard for recovery, and almost got back to our feet and the safety of a globe scroll, but the Dragon was too fast and did a big stomp to...

This was pretty interesting, during the Dragon trials everyone back at camp decided to join the combat somehow? I think Us got caught in the vines left over from the Woodland being while we were transitioning from camp back to the Dragon's den, and so remained stuck back at camp. But then when...

Our Fiery Friend The Ballad of Harvard Willoughby ended much like it began, with a bang lol The Black Hand of Bane nearly knocked us out of the running TPK, when Gortash's specter of Tyranny managed to Dominate Glaive. Dark Glaive dropped the Dome and then drew the most deadly Opportunity...
