I’m not fussed about mistakes or bad rolls in my first play through, I’m just playing as much as I can to my characters strengths (which gets you rerolls anyway through “inspiration”) and having a blast even when things go poorly.
I’ll go for perfect situations when I play through it again, it’s highly replay-able with all the different party combinations and character classes you can create.
You can mitigate getting constantly bad or good rolls with the “karma dice” system that skews the percentages to keep dice rolls from landing the same way all the time, but that works in the favour of all your enemies as well and generally means you’ll end up taking more damage over the course of the game should you get hit.
I switched that off from the start because I for sure want them failing as miserably as I do.
sorry, i can’t take those players serious. it’s ridiculous.
so what they say doesn’t matter for me.
The problem is working out why players are mad about something. They’ll say the pacing is slow in their review, but you’ll have to dig deeper to find their pacing is slow because they save and reload, so their opinion is … not relevant to the way I play the game
The same players probably search online for the outcome of every conversation/interaction to know which is the “best result” … when the definition of “best” is dubious and/or subjective.
Coping with, and adapting to, bad luck and other unexpected happenings is the whole point for other players and I assume BG3 has the flexibility to reward creative reactions. I say “assume” because I have not played BG3 but am currently immersed in DIvinity Original Sin 2.
From Software (Elden Ring devs), check. Giant mech combat, check. Min / maxing each piece of gear, check.
Armored Core VI releases today and of course I’m on vacation and my Xbox remote play isn’t working.
DLC potential for BG3, it would appear:
It’s all about the Benjamin’s baby
Wingspan just updated today with a brand new online client. Old games won’t work anymore and you’ll need to create a new account/username.
Neuroshima Hex too. Won’t let you in without updating.
Thankfully the update doesn’t kill current games
I KNOW! I was shocked to find our current one still going.
Digidiced games are on sale on iOS.
Well Gloomhaven just released on consoles….
Tempted to get it for Switch. But secretly hoping for an iOS release.
I put a lot of hours into Gloonhaven on tye PC, it was awesome
I personally found it clunky - and the lack of an undo button was infuriating, since I often needed to undo something that was a mistake purely because of slow/sluggish performance and clunky UX.
Seems Heat is now on BGA - @ohbollox, fancy a digital game?
Noice. We should get some more players together and have a race.
I’m absolutely in. I’ve been playing a few games of it on there already.
Me too!
