    Who would you have in your ultimate RPG party?

    This one is not easy at all in my case... (my biggest 'problem' with any party cRPG's is that I always have too few/not enough party slots to pick all the NPC I want to take with me) but: 1) Jaheira (#1 100%), from Baldur's Gate 2) Eder (very close by), from Pillars of Eternity 3) Valerie, from...

    I believe Adratha has those potions as well and you usually side with her vs Khan Zahraa, so it's not so bad after all. Not sure if her stock is 'unlimited' but at the same time don't know about Roger's one too in this matter. And also Mrs. Cragmoon in the Bridge District has a quite nice stock...

    Not everyone at all, I assure you. As an everlasting animals' admirer I wholeheartedly support Aurora's attitude toward her pets. So she definitely has at least one member in her fan club 🤩.

    Personally, I pretty much like SR/IR concept - there are a lot of changes there that I fully support. My main concern with them is their constant changes with literaly every release - as if the authors themselves do not know what they want to achieve. They also fix some inevitable bugs in the...

    If only we could play a cRPG which takes best from all of the worlds (Baldur's Gate, Pathfinder, Pillars of Eternity, Divinity: Original Sin, Solasta)... Sweet dreams :) I love all of them even if each of those have their own 'flaws'. But who or what if perfect, please tell me? :)

    I can't comment on others, but for me personally, holding on the grounds of fair play delivers much more satisfaction on the achievement and on the process of gaining it than using some kind of 'cheats', 'exploits', 'cheesy' or 'gray' tactics whatever that means to get an achevement all by...

    Yep, those 'cut off' pools are exploitable so don't fit into the fair play category, in my opinion. Nonetheless, Astrid will stay in the memory of those who followed her run, that's for sure!

    Congratulations, Alesia! What can’t be taken away from you is the ability to always find a way out of a seemingly desperate situation. Well done! =)

    Thanks for your insights, Alesia! Truth be told I do like some things in EE but as it turned out recently I can easily implement those in my original setup with BG2 Improved GUI mod so I have even less motivation to move on EE unfortunately...

    Great stuff as usual, Alesia! And all those 'Astrid was all', 'I was all', 'Baltazar was all' insets are just jewels! Made me laugh out loud =) One question before I'll forget - I've noticed from Astrid's inventory picture that Sling of Everard has a Strength bonus to damage just like a Sling...

    This. The difference between Insane and lower difficulty is quite noticable so succeeding on lower difficulty (with building some strategy for that setting) means absolutely nothing and guarantee nothing for trying out later on Insane, in my opinion. And changing difficulty setting mid-run is...

    @Alesia_BH : Indeed! :) Especially their 'Enter Sandman' Metallica cover. The girls are very talented and I've no doubts about their future. Just amazing! I've already watched a couple of their videos on youtube. And congratulations on graduating into the ToB! Keep on rocking! :)

    @Alesia_BH : If you say that you are a so-so writer then I'm just an illiterate dude in comparison... I awe of people who can write interesting stories but myself... I'm well aware of my quite poor storytelling skills. I have a distinct technical mindset and it’s much easier for me to express my...

    Baldur's Gate Trilogy No Reloads Run

    @Alesia_BH : Your 'History of the Fate Spirit' is just beautiful! "Principles over prizes", "Not all red circles are foes" - I love those notions and from now on I'll surely add them to my 'completionist' agenda ("Every foe should be dealt with one way or another"). To live is to learn, as they...

    Baldur's Gate Trilogy No Reloads Run

    Thanks! I am sorry for misleading you - it's 'Divinity: Original Sin 2 Definitive Edition at Honour/Tactician Mode with Wizard Beast' I'm running now and I'm already at the final stages of Chapter 2 (Fort Joy) without taking any notes or screenshots. Maybe I'll be able to recall/reconstruct my...

    Baldur's Gate Trilogy No Reloads Run

    No problems with extra work since I'm writing my game progress in notepad along the way and it's just a matter of copy/paste from there (and inserting some pics). I'll do it :) The slight 'problem' is that I have too many games running at the same time (BGT Trilogy NR with Avatars, Pathfinder...

    Pathfinder: Kingmaker and Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous General Discussion, Playthroughs and Minimal/No Reload Thread

    I like the story and NPCs in both games and truth be told I have a strong feeling of deja vu comparing Pathfinder and Baldur's Gate series. Since low level compains are far more appealing for me (this is one of the reasons of my multiple re-starts after reaching level 10 or near) and while both...
