Thank you for your overwiev, @O_Bruce, it's very insightful. I still haven't finished the game, so I will post more detailed analysis when I'm done, but generally the more I play the more my excitement wane. Not sure if this will change in later acts, because I mostly do side content at the...

Thank you for indepth explanation. Since I haven't really played BG for years now and I know many mods only by description and by following their topics on modding sites, I'd not dare to recommend any of them, without actually trying them myself. But when I get to that point, I'll certainly will!

Continuing from other thread: How so? Do you mean that SCS doesn't take those encounters in consideration, so their scripts are inferior to SCS? Also, isn't Questpack mostly content adding (quests mostly) mod? There is a new iteration of Tactics, called Tactics Remix, that may play better with...

That is a perfectly valid point. It crossed my mind too, but, I confess, I watched Starfield Direct a couple of times and the more I watch it the more I think, it will (mostly) all blend together nicely. I have played NMS only a little and never tried Everspace 2, so it might be that it won't be...

Sorry, if the question is silly, just genuine curiosity. Have you ever considered extending your mod list a bit? I understand you prefer a mod setup as close to the old vanilla days as possible (SCS is a must for anyone, really, and clearly you have a soft spot for Ascension), but there are...

Alfred Bester (I didn't know back then, he was named after Nebula award winning sci-fi writer) is one of the best written and terrifying antagonist I have ever seen on screen. The whole psi-corp organization, even if conceptually isn't unique, was really well thought and brilliantly designed...

I wanted to mention one more setting, which I opted out in my previous mail, because it wasn't utilized in computer gaming so far (at least for grander scale). It's the universe of Babylon 5 sci-fi TV series, that was aired 1994 - 1998. Its creator, Michael J. Straczynski was able to write a...

I rewatched Starfield Direct more closely and with the comprehensive deep dive into the gameplay, I can now safely assess how I feel about this game: Story, narrative and NPCs - Bethesda always lacked on this field comparing to other big studios, like Bioware, Rockstar or CD Projekt and I get...

Forgotten Realms, there can be only one, really. I've started to dig into FR by reading FR novels, even before original BG. I loved the vast, rich world from the first book I've read. Then came the BG, and IWD after that, which only solidified my love for Forgotten Realms. The other setting I...

I'll be honest, I was very disappointed with all those gaming conventions until Xbox Showcase, which saved the day, basically. There are a couple of games that caught my attention, to be sure: Starfield (I was hyped, then skeptical, then "we'll see", and now I think it may actually work)...

Ok, you really got me there. What is World Tier III and IV and how can I get there? Is it happening after finishing game on Veteran, like a general difficulty level where you could unlock Hardcore and Hell in previous games? If yes, does it mean I cannot drop Unique item on my first playthrough...

I'd love to see following features when it comes to itemization. I hope Blizzard will add at least some of them at some point. A way go upgrade your items to your current level, that will bump their core stats (armor, damage, affixes %). Simple as that. Rune words. And I know it's the most...

This whole item management reminds of the one from Assassin's Creed: Oddysey, wher you could also customize your gear based on the engravings you acquired. I must admit, I'm not a fan of such design, as it's strips the loot from uniqueness. Sure, you can tailor your gear to your liking, in a way...

Guys, I need an advice. This aspect mechanics is confusing☹️ Let's say I got a cool legendary item, but after couple of levels it falls behind with the stats. You can upgrade it a bit (4 levels of upgrade) by smith, but it's just a minor buff. What are you doing in that case? Do you retrieve...

I was thinking to make some changes in my build. Since I cannot benefit from Companion passive bonus, if I don't put their skill on the skill bar, I'll have a room only for one. I'm consider to switch wolves to poison creeper. I kind of think wolves work best in conjunction with other...

Yeah, and this is exactly what happened to me this morning. I was "Butchered". 😁

Statut report after rebuilding my druid according to notes above. It works! Ha! He's still not a powerhouse (I trust you guys it'll come later), but it's much, much better now. I can beat bosses now! The key in this setup are Rend (with poison damage even more), Blood Howl (healing outside...

There is a storage, yes. It's located in the first major city (probably not only) and from what I read, it's indeed shared between your other characters.

Yeah, I've been trying to do that, but there is a requirement to retake the fortress first, and my initial attempts were a failure. I hope that after my skill rebuild, it will go smoother. As for legendary items, I only dropped 1 so far (fortunately it's a druid item), so can't tell much about...
