    Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader & now also Warhammer 40,000: Dark Heresy - a new cRPG from Owlcat Games

    I wonder if it'll be like Kingmaker or WoTR to me, which is a fundamental question, since I very much liked the latter, and disliked the former.

    References, Secrets, and other Easter Eggs inside games

    There are also couple of known Twitch streamers in the game, CohhCarnage among them. Look for a guy named Gary the Prophet, somewhere on the streets of Night City, not far from starting location.

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

    A couple of points from me about Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous (I haven't finished Kingmaker, I didn't like it, but it has nothing to do with combat mechanics). Please note, that I'm not an expert tactician and I play crpgs mainly for story, world and NPCs. I played on slightly modified...

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

    I was mainly interested in general impressions, didn't mean to discuss specific story details. For someone who plays crpgs mainly for story and exploration, this is something that interests me the most.

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

    I find interesting that the most posts regarding WoTR is about combat tactics or class builds and the actual main story and NPC side quests are mostly overlooked. What do you guys think of the world, story, NPCs? Personally I find WoTR's story one of the better I experienced recently and was...

    Assassin's Creed games

    I've been having a ton of fun playing Origins, which I wasn't sure would be the case after the mediocre experience with Valhalla. Anyway, here are some fun pictures:

    Assassin's Creed games

    Again, due to devious actions of an individual named Antimatter, I had an irresistible urge to play some Assassin's Creed game ;). My choice fell on Origins, as I figured Odyssey has more advanced gameplay, and it would be more difficult for me to play it after a less sophisticated brother. I...

    Industry News / Upcoming Games

    I'm kind of in the position of "wait and see". I was in the group of very disappointed customers of CP2077, because I bought it initially on PS4 Pro, where it was virtually unplayable after release. Only over a year later, after patch 1.5 and on PC, I was able to enjoy the game. CDPR definitely...

    Assassin's Creed games

    I have played only following Assassin's Creed games so far (first 3 many, many years ago): Assassin's Creed II Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood Assassin's Creed: Revelations Assassin's Creed: Valhalla While I'm probably in the minority, but I prefer the old style gameplay, less role playing...

    What game are you currently playing?

    Currently, playing Divinity: Original Sin 2 on Tactician. I have played this game twice in the past, but never finished. It's really hard to say why, but probably the reason was another game that hooked me up much more. The first time I have played, Red Dead Redemption 2 was released and when I...

    What's the last game you've finished?

    OK, let's see. Here are the games I have finished within this year: Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous → after a major letdown of Pathfinder: Kingmaker, the second game was an enormous positive surprise. The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim → I have been keeping this game on my virtual shelf for years and...

    Upcoming gaming shows/conventions

    I'm probably in minority here, but I'm glad new Assassin's Creed won't be an open world rpg. I enjoyed the first few games the most (especially Ezio's Saga). But I know Origins, Odyssey and Valhalla have a lot of fans.

    Sea Dogs games General Discussion, Playthroughs and Minimal/No Reload Thread

    I gotta admit, reading about your progress makes me want to play this game next. I see a lot of inspiration from Sid Meier's: Pirates. Well, in fact, it looks like a better version of it. From what I see there is more focus on rpg aspect, incresing skills, collecting better gear.

    Storytelling in RPGs - what makes a "good" story.

    Maybe this will seem controversial to some, but I realized that games with fixed, pre-generated characters are the ones that I feel more immersed in and which story I find more attached to. Games like Mass Effect (with cmdr Shepard), CP2077 (with V), Planescape Torment (the Nameless One), Disco...

    Inducing Substance: a Shepard's guide. (A playthrough of the Mass Effect series.)

    It's funny you have chose Kasumi for the Tecnician role. I never had close feelings towards her (comparing to other squadmates), yet I haven't hesitated even a second to put her on this role. And I'm happy I managed to save all on my first take. Hell, I didn't even realise there can be...

    General (c)RPG Permadeath/Ironman Thread

    I don't think I'm cut for any ironman challenge. Firstly, because I play crpgs mostly for the story and rarely play the same game twice if I finished it. Second, I'm not really an expert tactician. I'm struggling with DOS2 on Tactician (although I think I get better at it) and had a hell of a...

    Storytelling in RPGs - what makes a "good" story.

    This is a great thread. Lots to discuss. What I think is important for me personally is to separate story from writing. I ended up playing games with great writing, but dull story and games with decent story, but bad writing. I was thinking how to approach this replay and I think the best way is...

    Tyranny - General Discussion and No-reload/Ironman Thread

    Tyranny is another game that I dropped in the middle of a playthrough, but intent to play it again and finish it this time.

    Sea Dogs games General Discussion, Playthroughs and Minimal/No Reload Thread

    Why I clearly remembered from my time with Sid Meier's: Pirates! is that I was more comfortable to sail with smaller and faster ships, even knowing enemy has more men and firepower. Manuveurability was the key to succes. If the rules are similar here, I'd probably be more concerned fighting 2...
