Based. On topic of optimization and graphics. My 2070 revving during level up screen
Presiona para expandir...
If you use something like Afterburner for your GPU set a max temp with temp (72c in my case with the fan curve hitting 100% at 78c) as priority over power limit and the fan revving will stop. Uboat was bad about revving my fans when looking at the world map but the settings I use now stop that completely in every game.

I don't entirely understand the bitching about how every character is bi and propositions you the moment you step into the gate, at least as people seem to be blaming this game in particular: that has been every CRPG of the last decade-plus. Obsidian got a lot of angry pushback because Pillars of Eternity didn't have any romance whatsoever, and thus every character in POE2 the nanosecond they met you wanted to sleep with you. Owlcat's Wrath of the Righteous features straight characters, bi characters, and an exclusively gay dude - annnnnnnd cue the bitching about the fact that Lann isn't gay and Camilla doesn't want to munch carpet. Amiri and Seelah, both Paizo characters, being wholly un-romanceable generated a lot more outrage than it did praise.

Because the writers, much like the people who defend virtually any form of romance in games with build-your-own-blank-slate protagonists, are not experienced at all in relationships or courtship. Of course it reads like a bad fucking porno cross-referenced with a chick flick. You could pour a lot of effort into making the romances more realistic - rather than obvious HEY WANNA FUCK flags you could require the player to spend significant time with the character and say specific things to the character at a series of different moments out in the world - but no-one would appreciate it. It's so much more work to do than just slapping in the lazy shit, and you make them bi so you don't have to deal with bitching NEET permavirgins.

Especially, especially, when most of the people that complain about this still pick a romance line, still play the game, still buy these games based on the fucking romance being in them or not - retarded shit. Why would you do more effort for no reward with content whose quality has never mattered a lick above its presence?

Just tell every single party member to fuck off with that shit when it pops up. It's frustrating to have to slog through six of them in a row during the party scene, because they all flag to trigger at the same time, but the market got what the market wanted. I really have to emphasize - people were furious that Pillars 1 had nothing, despite it objectively making those companions far more interesting characters.

850k concurrent players holy shit.

Think we'll have more uncensored pussies and tits in future vidya games?

I tell you what, ive been hearing murmurings here and there. People are noticing, I cant guarantee any of this will be good. (in liberal hands it wont be) but this might really open the door to some darker story's and content in the industry.

Journo and faggots loved to bitch about characters being "player sexual" because it isn't "real" representation or something.

But the fact is, people that actually play these games tend to bitch about not being able to fuck their favorite character a lot more. To the point of finding ways to just mod it in anyways *coughcyberpunkcough*

I haven't played the game, so I could see them just being all over you right out the gate being annoying, but honestly out of all the shit that could possibly be considered "woke" I think letting everyone willing to fuck the PC is the smallest thing to complain about.

Probably going to play as a bard in the next playthrough and save the world with the power of medieval rock band.

Bard is hilarious. i just bullshit my way out of trouble.

today i killed the Hag and raided the goblin fortress. the hag was a real cunt but i like how i tackled her bullshit

i manage to sneak into her lair without being detected and came my way through her dungeon, opining another exist. through there, i rested up and decided to tackle her. after the hag escapes, i just use her back door and ambush her lair. the fight started out great but slowly, the hag was beating me down. manage to lure her into bunch of bombs i set up and blew her to smeltery! the cunt mom was angry i killed the hag but here is the cool part. i used a spell that lets me talk to dead people and made the hag confess that she was gonna fuck her over and i could tell her that which is cool. accidently reviewed her husband and gave her a undead husband back. cool quest overall

made friends with the goblins and got to wonder the camp. after a bit of digging, i set up a bunch of archer and shot at the goblin. i manage to trick some ogres to help me clear the camp. after that, i was planning to kill the ogres afterwards so i would not have to pay them. instead i tricked the bastard i would pay him even more if i could summon him again and he bought it. the dumb fuck!

again, i bullshited my way inside the fortress and im planning my next move.

hard to say this, but im having fun here.

I am doing really well so far in this game.

>Astarion I refused to let him join group
>Gale left group after I failed a Illithid check to read his mind
>Wyll killed after I sided with the Goblins
>Karlach I ripped her head off for the broadsword
>Halsin I threw a rock at him when he was in goblin jail and he attacked me so I killed him.

Thank god for the hirelings because I’m running out of party members. Also, a side note but isn’t it a little weird that all of the party members are available during act one? Most RPGs I’ve played space it out a lot more.

Karlach isn't that great of a companion but the shitty broadsword was certainly the worse option. There's a few more sprinkled out over act 2 and 3 but most of them are immediately available at the start of the game.

Lol I know I hardly even use it. She wasn't willing to join my party so I decided killing her and getting the sword was better then nothing.

You need to recruit Wyll first and have him with you. I never encountered Astarion in act 1 and he probably would have helped in the act 3 boss fight I'm stuck on.

Think of games like Baldur's Gate 2, KotoR II, NWN2 Mast of the Betrayer. In each of those games, you had to dig pretty deep to put yourself in a relationship with the characters. In some instances, sex wasn't the reward. The reward was usually just making it to a confession. Sex was always implied to follow thereafter.

Now, all the devs seem to assume romance is about getting in someone's pants.

It's like that philosopher that manifests after you nut where you to realize, "Wait, she was that easy to get into bed with?"
