    Thinking of playing a goblin in BG

    Since goblins tends to have lesser intelligence that most of default playable races, I think intelligence penalty should also be a thing. And funny thing about goblins in Baldur's Gate is, I think in vanilla Irenicus dungeon, they used composite long bows, which required 18 strength to wield...

    That's interesting hypothesis, but the thing is I am not sure whether snakes are capable of forming bonds with their owners to the point of being protective of them... In fact I never heard of it, as it seems snakes simply didn't evolve this way.

    [Finished] Icewind Dale no magic items challenge run

    This is true. When I'll be visiting my hometown next time around, I'll try to search for classic IWD and BG collections I should still have somewhere in my parent's home. I think they'll be somewhere in the attic. Recently, I though the more physical copies of games I have with me, the better.

    [Finished] Icewind Dale no magic items challenge run

    The Allmighty Trio continues their adventure! First, the Temple of the Forgotten God; it does not contain anything with nanomachines or Auril's favour immune to non-magical weapons. Despite this, verbeegs managed to humble me, and made me adjust my tactic: Dabb was receiving way too much...

    Icewind Dale with Basically Experts

    I would have used Animate Dead to take off some pressure from your front liners. If you're lucky enough, you can summon up to 6 skeletons, some of them using bows, which is great since they have resistance to piercing damage from verbeegs.

    Okay, this is not a video I was expecting to see in 2026, but here we are. Quite compelling evidence of a small, cute snake having a beef with Markipler, of all people on the planet.

    [Finished] Icewind Dale no magic items challenge run

    The Allmighty Trio adventure through Kressalack's Tomb continues. The party cleared the first level of the dungeon, minus the mummy, and then tackled the trap at the beginning of level 2 Next, Dabb cast a Silence, 15' radius to disaple skeletal mage's spellcasting, before luring out to its...

    Icewind Dale with Basically Experts

    If Fendak's death was of any indicaiton, we already see how stats of your characters matters. This is going to be very interesting run to follow.

    It is true that collective attention span of people is going down for a while, but I also must admit that I really haven't thought of using videogames as a tool to fix it (I have been implementing some measures for it for some time now, although once depressive episode hits it can easily regress...

    @JustKneller That's interesting, because I thought most people would immediately think of Yxunomei and her immunity to +1 weapons and below. Some of the things you mentioned I'll be adressing in this update though :) Our Allmighty trio started out with exploring nearby crypts. Surprisingly...

    [Finished] Icewind Dale no magic items challenge run

    Hello there! I want to work on idea I had for quite some time now, and that would be playing through basic campaign of Icewind Dale without use of magical items. It sounds like something very hard to pull off and with some problem-solving potential Restrictions of the playthrough are as...

    The Core of Diablo

    Fajer update and some other things I really am not feeling like do a proper update on my Warlock playthough given the current circumstances, so I'll keep it short. And about hell difficulty, I don't want to sugar coat it: For other Diablo 2 related things, I played some of my high...

    Hi, I think this video is very fascinating to watch/listen to in the background, even for someone like me with minimal experience with actual pen-and-paper rpg sessions. It does explain a lot and does so quite well. Its length might feel like much, but I still think it is nice video to listen...

    The Core of Diablo

    A new way of Fajer's life in Act IV on Nightmare difficulty Let's start with the changes for Fajer. I've used up a free character respect from Akara to try a new build for late nightmare and hell difficulties. I wanted achieve a build capable of dealing dual-type damage and I predicted a...

    I get less worried about AI every day

    @BelgarathMTH First of all, I am sorry to hear about your loss. I've lost several pets during my life and it feels like losing family member. You have my sympathy. Second, it is true we don't have good topic to discuss AI, since the only other one I can think of was related to art specifically...

    Upcoming gaming shows/conventions

    For me, I can say just a few things caught my attention, in no particular order: Monster Hunter Wilds: Ascendence - I have waited a long time for an official announcement, and I have many thoughts about what I saw. Will keep them to myself, since there's non-zero chance I am only Monster Hunter...
