    I got to such a point of dislike with PoE that I didn't even try PoE II... and I could play the Complete Edition for free thanks to Microsoft's Game Pass...

    The Elder Scrolls Thread

    That's my problem with this kind of game. If you are a completionist, there are so many side quests the main story gets lost and forgotten then you get tired of the game because you are too powerful :)

    Games that you'd like to like...

    I feel like surfaces are abused in the games. Let's get a traditional RPG like D&D. You may be hit by Greek Fire or some other fire inducing potion, for instance. You can get rid of it by a save, throwing water on yourself or just rolling on the floor, so you get rid of the damage source and can...

    Games that you'd like to like...

    There are many games out there that i'd like to like but just can't. They are not bad games, but they just failed to keep me interested for some reason. Some of the most famous ones would be Divinity Original Sin I & II and Pillars of Eternity... I have over 40hrs playing all of these trying to...

    Let's discuss replayability of RPGs

    I think my main problem with replaying a game I just finished is that the story is still too fresh in my memory. It would be like reading a book I just finished. That's where multiple endings and multiple paths may help. Scaling enemies is a horrible idea. What is the point of you getting to...

    Let's discuss replayability of RPGs

    It's a little like Fallout 4... So many side quests I never finished the game... Sacred 2 was another one where it happened. Although these are action games, they have a deep root in traditional RPGs as well.

    Let's discuss replayability of RPGs

    I think replayability walks a thin line between being open and giving you an objective. Make it too open and you may just get lost on the 100000 side quests and never finish the game. Also having new things to discover or a completely different path to play may help me try to play something a...

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

    It's not obvious how some side quests actually tie to Varnhold. Eventually you'll find the right quests and things will start to become clear.

    What non-romanceable characters would you romance?

    To be sincere I would expect the tea to melt my internal organs if the sentence was written like that :) Now I have to imagine what an Elcor romance option would be like...

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

    Both Pathfinder games have extremely hard fights. The first one has sudden difficulty spikes that may take you by surprise. So far, I think the second one is more consistent in terms of difficulty. The game won't stop you going to areas you are not ready to face. Coming back later is something...

    What non-romanceable characters would you romance?

    My main problem with romance in RPGs is that often I'll start a romance with a character when I just wanted some friendship. Often because an option I saw as an educated comment or just kind is a romance trigger. I really think they should be marked somehow. Dr. Chakwas is the most criminally...

    What non-romanceable characters would you romance?

    I could see a romance with the Illusive man as a way to fight his indoctrination. Considering it's Mass Effect it would probably end badly :)

    Your highest stat roll (Baldur's Gate & Icewind Dale)

    Well you can have a back character that actually hits something with ranged attacks when he has no useful spells to use.

    Does anyone know what are the multiple updates BG III gets every day on Steam? I get 3 or 4.
