What did you think of Othercide? I was really into it when it first came out and i ran into a game breaking bug and had to throw it in the bushes

Loving it so far, it can be unforgiving based on the game mechanics but I like it as it makes you think your actions through throughly as you can’t go back if you change your mind. The daughters remind me of claymores slightly so that’s what initially got my interest. Sadly I will have to put it down now for a while as I am sure straight after BG3 I will be jumping to Spider-Man 2.

If you loved that kind of gameplay you should have no problem with BG3 then. It’s basically the same, but more.
I also remember hearing a lot of complaints about how difficult the combat was last month from people and i don’t know its fine for me? I haven’t had any encounters where im just getting wiped or frustrated. I think, like souls games theres just a certain way to play these games that people aren’t grasping. Like, you don’t have to fight everything, its not a jrpg where things are just thrown in your path to kill.
Either way i think i might change my class again, even though i like my pet bear

Screwed up... till tha casket drops!!
warlock's boring asl imo, you just spam the same spell over and over
sorcerer's the same kind of gameplay but with more options and synergies
if you pick your feats right you can learn that warlock spell and become a sorc/warlock hybrid without dual classing
Warlock is arguably the strongest class in the game. Just make sure you pick the right spells.

you know a game is absolute piff when you are liek 40 hours in with like 60 more to go and you’re already thinking about your next playthrough.
So many times i wanted to choose the chaos/dark path and said let me chill
These dark urges though…

You’re going to be waiting a long ass time. Larian don’t get into a rush of discounting their games like that.

I love CRPGs I have been playing them since I was a kid. Planescape torment is in my top 10 of all time games. I had no doubt I would love this game.If you loved that kind of gameplay you should have no problem with BG3 then. It’s basically the same, but more.

I will probably play this game multiple times so will try different classes.
Remember I said favourite not strongest, this is a role playing game when a bard can be extremely relevant. I was just reading people’s opinion on Reddit and bard and some of the other classes were looked on favourably based on what they bring to the overall experience. I will probably end up playing different classes.

Will be starting off as the dark urge, most of the time I always start as chaotic good but this time just going to roll with the fukkery. Want to see how far this game lets me push things.
