https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s5ByUsg-VXY&ab_channel=MrGeeBee

[molten abyss]

pls dont tell me its 3 weeks

[foggy valve]

Dabbi, it's the 3rd of August

Go look at a calendar

This hasn't changed since you got excited for it

[lament hatch]

Dabbi doesn't use the gregorian calendar

[foggy valve]

oh shit, my bad it's coming out on July 21, 2023 in the julian calendar

[molten abyss]

Oh fuck

[drifting summit]

[molten abyss]

That is 3 weeks

[drifting summit]

https://tenor.com/view/charm-charming-blink-blinking-wink-gif-16685104

[cobalt talon]

Wait until Dabbi realises that it’s out in 12 days and 16 hours

[foggy valve]

But that’s 3 weeks

[molten abyss]

Yes 3 weeks

[drifting summit]

Good job dabblet

[cobalt talon]

[molten abyss]

It is wdym

[tawdry glacier]

https://tenor.com/view/calculation-math-hangover-allen-zach-galifianakis-gif-6219070

[foggy valve]

If dividing by 7 is too difficult for you, let’s try with subtraction. We are currently in week 29. It releases in week 31. That’s in 2 weeks.

[molten abyss]

29 30 31 = 3 weeks

Wdym????

With current week it is 3 weele

idk which to no life until bg3 and f1 manager

[cobalt talon]

https://tenor.com/view/give-up-tantrum-office-time-gif-14456507

[molten abyss]

myz do I start Div

[cobalt talon]

no

told you before

nowhere near enough time to finish before bg3

since you have the attention span of an American teenager with an adderall addiction

[molten abyss]

HAHAHAHAH

WDYMM

do u wanna mp it with me :3

[cobalt talon]

no

i play games solo

[molten abyss]

idk what tatical mode even is

[foggy valve]

Its a mode you should not play.

[molten abyss]

uhoh

[potent hamlet]

It will kick the shit out of you and you will have no fun

[molten abyss]

Im thinking between explorer or story

[cobalt talon]

pick explorer

[foggy valve]

You’re getting destroyed on xcom, you will not be able to do anything in tactician.

[cobalt talon]

the game is too long to play on a story mode with 0 resistance

[molten abyss]

HAHHAHA

ok who will mp with me :3

[molten abyss]

toxic thread

[foggy valve]

You will never be able to finish bg3

[molten abyss]

Why

not with that attitude

[foggy valve]

You simply dont have attention span to finish a single game

[molten abyss]

Well I wanna get used to lariat gam before BG3

thats the reason I play div now

[cobalt talon]

lariat gam

[molten abyss]

if that wasnt the case I'd play xcom again

[foggy valve]

They are quite different

[molten abyss]

I did play Alien dark descent for like 50h stright no other games inbeetween

[cobalt talon]

you said you didnt like having to read or pay attention to the story in games dabbi

you said that like 2 weeks ago

play what you want ofc

but you've been warned

[molten abyss]

Well depends on the type of game

[foggy valve]

BG3 is like 90% cinemstics and dialogue

Just fyi.

[molten abyss]

yes

[foggy valve]

[potent hamlet]

And the other 10% is BEAR SEX

[molten abyss]

sex

gamers finally get to see what sex is

[potent hamlet]

Sexy bear sex sex sex

[cobalt talon]

you dont have to play it because 10 ppl in TSL play it

or spend your money on it for that matter

[molten abyss]

owo

[molten abyss]

I will pirate it

[cobalt talon]

no buy it properly

[molten abyss]

make me

hmm I wanta class that is like necro in d2

[cobalt talon]

doesnt really exist

wizards and clerics have access to necromancy spells i think

warlocks as well

but there's not really a typical permanent minion type class or build in BG3

[molten abyss]

BOOOBAS

[foggy valve]

Necromancy is SEVERELY frowned upon

But sure you do that 🙂

See the entire World hate you

[molten abyss]

HAHAHA

nothign new then

tsl hates me as it is

[foggy valve]

I dont think you understand

[molten abyss]

my mods didnt fully work it seems..

[cobalt talon]

if you're gonna play it, pick Fane, Ifan or Sebille as a main character or companion. They have by far the best origin stories.

[potent hamlet]

Necromancy is mostly fine, being undead is the frowned upon one

[foggy valve]

Mods?

When learning a game?

?????

[molten abyss]

why is her neck so fucked

[foggy valve]

I can’t

[cobalt talon]

her neck isnt fucked

[potent hamlet]

Lhose, Fane, Ifan, Sebille is the goated comp for story

[foggy valve]

I’ve done necromancy in town, they dont enjoy that iirc

Getting Fane head piece in bg3 looks so goofy

Wonder what weird thing I can cook up with that

[potent hamlet]

Oh you can get the mask thing?

[cobalt talon]

bets on Dabbi not getting past the Radeka witch fight in Fort Joy?

[foggy valve]

[molten abyss]

wdym

[foggy valve]

Dabbi won’t be able to get off fort joy

[molten abyss]

THERE IS NO POINTS I CAN SPEND

HELLO

[potent hamlet]

Bro he aint even make it to fort joy

[foggy valve]

Real.

[molten abyss]

impossible challange : getr past char creation

[exotic kayak]

how far in do I have to get for the bear sex

[molten abyss]

UHOH

[cobalt talon]

playing this game as a Lone Wolf rogue is probably the most fun i've had in a turn based rpg by a wide margin

[foggy valve]

In bg3, at least past act 1.

[potent hamlet]

or you could just play an absolutely sick game normally

[foggy valve]

Dabbi should play Pathfinder: WotR

Little 200 hour game for him

Surely the focus is there

[molten abyss]

it was mostly just bug fixes pathce,s custom classes

nothing fancy

[potent hamlet]

It is a lot of fun yeah but kinda broken, just not to the length of barrelmancy

[foggy valve]

“Custom classes”

[molten abyss]

what stat do I even want as Nightstalker

[foggy valve]

What about a first play through is fucking normal

[potent hamlet]

Putro

[foggy valve]

Not with endless mods

[potent hamlet]

I fucking LOVE this game

[foggy valve]

It do be good

[cobalt talon]

I imagine they all feel extremely methodical in Lone Wolf, thats what I loved on the one time I played it

[molten abyss]

we start

[potent hamlet]

Lone wolf parties are a good 50% stronger than normal parties

[cobalt talon]

yeah

[potent hamlet]

so its a bit less thinking honestly

[cobalt talon]

i played the game 3 times, once in a normal party, then a lone wolf duo party and then a solo rogue

[cobalt talon]

yes dabbi we know

just enjoy the game, it's great

[molten abyss]

omw to fort joy

[cobalt talon]

[molten abyss]

wait

is everything voiced act

[exotic kayak]

whats he playing

BG2?

[cobalt talon]

dos2

[potent hamlet]

DoS2

[exotic kayak]

ah

[foggy valve]

Modded dos2

[potent hamlet]

[exotic kayak]

[cobalt talon]

when you get to the Doctor or Alice Alisceon or Blackpits fight, @ me dabbi. I wanna watch

[potent hamlet]

Wooders are you enjoing being done wit prog

[molten abyss]

i am now the commander

[exotic kayak]

yes

I am a free elf

[foggy valve]

He’s never getting that far.

[potent hamlet]

Alice... Fight... it will not be a fight

[molten abyss]

OFF TO PLANK WITH THE PESKY WOODSY

HE SHALL WALK THE PLANK

[foggy valve]

Like literally never getting past fort joy.

[potent hamlet]

Dabbi needs to attack dallas

outside fort joy

[cobalt talon]

yeah dabbi, thats a good point actually

you can attack anyone you want to pretty much

[foggy valve]

He will do some dumb shit and end his run because doesn’t read quest and dialogue

[cobalt talon]

and not brick the game

more or less

[exotic kayak]

he'll mod the fuck out of it so it runs like shit and crashes every 5 minutes

[molten abyss]

why??

can u all stop hating on me

[foggy valve]

Because I know you

You’ve started like 5 different games in just as many days

[potent hamlet]

He already did

[cobalt talon]

that we know

[foggy valve]

You dont like dialogue games

[molten abyss]

no

iv played 3 games this month

[foggy valve]

This game doesn’t have a guide marker of what to do next, you have to read and figure things out yourself

[molten abyss]

Alien
xcom
div

[cobalt talon]

you've been talking about League, F1 Manager, Xcom, Aliens, dos2 now, what else

i'm sure i missed 2

[molten abyss]

F1 comes next week, league I play tft on phone

[cobalt talon]

next week as in next monday?

[foggy valve]

But sure, be happy to see you prove me wrong and you actually a) get past fort joy and b) finish game

[cobalt talon]

and new PoE league is around the corner

[potent hamlet]

idk if I'm gonna be able to play my fill of BG3 before PoE comes out

But I need to run PogDave league so we will be going hard when league drops

[molten abyss]

we pogging

@potent hamlet fane is based

[foggy valve]

Skip Poop of Eternity

[tawdry glacier]

Jesus Christ why tf do you have to mod every game

[potent hamlet]

I would play PoE over literally any game apart from maybe week 1 of a wow raid

[cobalt talon]

'- the wow raid

[molten abyss]

@tawdry glacierso u would tell me to ply skyrim without mods then

hmmm??

[cobalt talon]

for a first playthrough? yes

[tawdry glacier]

I would tell you to not play Skyrim at all

[molten abyss]

i never finished skyrim

and f4

[cobalt talon]

im shocked

and xcom

and aliens

[molten abyss]

I ended up modding and doing side and exploring

[tawdry glacier]

mod your brain

[molten abyss]

mod dez nuts

[cobalt talon]

i doubt you ever finish a game tbh dabbi

[molten abyss]

depends

if it keeps my interest then ye

[tawdry glacier]

there are no games with subway surfer on a second screen

[molten abyss]

we arrived at fort joy

[foggy valve]

Yes 1000000% lmao

The base game is insanely good

Especially now with legendary edition

[tawdry glacier]

Skyrim is a mid game, don’t @ me

[foggy valve]

You’re a piss penguin no one cares about your opinion

[tawdry glacier]

[molten abyss]

Not with my 100000x mods

[foggy valve]

[molten abyss]

can u even play skyrim with a body changer?

And graphic overhaul

etc

hmmm???

[foggy valve]

?

What are you smoking

[molten abyss]

modding skyrim is best part about it, but I changed my mods in div to QoL

@cobalt talon i couldnt find out who stole Griffs supplies

so I ended up bruality murder him

[winter vigil]

dabbi have you taken your medication the past few days you are extra spergy

[molten abyss]

no

i forgot em yd

cause i fell asleep during anime

[winter vigil]

Well

Imagine you took them and spam type less

And ping less

[cobalt talon]

It’s already confirmed. He never even made it off Fort Joy. Not even close.

[molten abyss]

I will restart later today

losing the 2h tilted me

[tawdry glacier]

for some reason I don’t believe you

I’ve played like 500h and never had a save file go bad

must’ve been the mods

[mint sparrow]

me neither

[cobalt talon]

me neither

Corrupted save files is a thing of the early 2000s or people who mess with the game

Just play the damned base game

[molten abyss]

maybe

gonna contiune xcom for now

[tawdry glacier]

okay talk to me in 5 min (don’t)

[molten abyss]

will do

[cobalt talon]

[mint sparrow]

doom 2016 had some issues with getting corrupted saves somehow, luckily it was possible to change the file and then revert it back iirc and got it working.
Got my save file corrupted almost at the end of the game, but managed to fix it

in case anyone wants to get into some background info on fifth edition:

https://online.anyflip.com/dkneq/yerq/mobile/index.html#p=1

[molten abyss]

myz i read that the studio almost went bankrupt

now thats dedication

[cobalt talon]

almost every studio probably did

multiple times

larian publishes their own games

[molten abyss]

ye

[molten abyss]

@cobalt talon we got rid of the shackle

[molten abyss]

something I noticed

I have hard time reading the "Journal"

[cobalt talon]

Why is that

[molten abyss]

Im not sure

[cobalt talon]

Screenshot it, I don’t remember what it looks like

[molten abyss]

having like trouble understanding where to go and understand what my goal is /quest

[mint sparrow]

gonna have a hard time in BG3 then

[cobalt talon]

It literally tells you what to do

Talk to Saheila, talk to everyone else, explore the island and buildings

Your goal is to get off the island

Since you’re a prisoner

[molten abyss]

ye that I get but some stuff I find like "aha?..."

idk

hard to explain

[cobalt talon]

[molten abyss]

hmm I need to obtain water spell or water to remove dis fire

[tawdry glacier]

????

[molten abyss]

i found a way out with a boat but I wanna help Saheila

[potent hamlet]

You're still in fort joy after that

[molten abyss]

i just escaped

o.o

by accident

[drifting summit]

He has escaped the mental hospital

[molten abyss]

now im gonna figure out how to save the people

[cobalt talon]

Remind me to not read this thread the first 2 weeks of BG3

[molten abyss]

why

[foggy valve]

I literally said this is how the game works

It won’t tell you what to do directly

[molten abyss]

yepp

trying to get used to that

[foggy valve]

Have to read, understand or decipher quests

[molten abyss]

BUT I MADE IT OUT OF FORT JOY

[cobalt talon]

Did you fight Orivand yet?

The High Judge

[molten abyss]

yes

i killed him

[potent hamlet]

Didn't kill Alexander though

And the worm

[molten abyss]

i couldnt find them

the questing is to hard for my brain

[cobalt talon]

BG3 won’t be easier

https://tenor.com/view/you-have-been-warned-salman-khan-warning-kulfy-hindi-gif-7242455574978559349

[molten abyss]

get same thing when i read my books

see double cause of my eye :c

[potent hamlet]

Bg3 won't be that bad

Probably

Not if you played wotr

[foggy valve]

WotR quests

Oh you forgot a little quest text element you Saw 50 hours ago? Lmao suck it

[molten abyss]

i cant find a game that sticks with me atm

gonna try kenshin and pretend to be Kalladin from way of kings

[potent hamlet]

Idk no system like the mythic paths made me feel so powerful but fair before or since

[cobalt talon]

Then maybe step away from games for a few weeks

It happens

[molten abyss]

im just waiting for BG3 and F1 manager

mostly..

[tawdry glacier]

my man if dos2 doesn’t stick with you neither will bg3

[molten abyss]

cant wait to get my new glasses

so i can read without having a stroke

[cobalt talon]

Didn’t we have this glasses saga before?

Like months ago?

[molten abyss]

i might get them this week

[cobalt talon]

Fired it up last night

played a little bit but didn't want to spoil myself too much before full release

felt good

i like the tooltip inspect feature

[molten abyss]

@modest musk kill thread smh

[cobalt talon]

shut up dabbi, BG3 doesnt have a dedicated channel

thread is fine

[molten abyss]

No

Channel now

[cobalt talon]

you won't play anyway

there's more text in character creation than you've probably read in your life

[foggy valve]

character creation is fully revamped in full version

[cobalt talon]

text looked massive on my screen even at the lowest font size (48px I think)

gonna fiddle with that later tonight

[molten abyss]

2 more weeks tho

[cobalt talon]

the game also thought my native resolution was 3800 something while I game on a 1440p monitor

so probably all related to playing fullscreen windowed, or the fake fullscreen or what they call it

[molten abyss]

Sooo long until bg3 launch

[winter vigil]

It's literally next week

[cobalt talon]

And there’s F1 and Exilecon this weekend

[cobalt talon]

this is the smallest i can get the overhead text

seems a bit large imo

same with the dialogue text. It's not annoying, but I think it's a bit too large at the smallest setting

[exotic kayak]

Wait how much smaller is that than the default

[cobalt talon]

i think this is the default

default was at this lowest end for me

[tawdry glacier]

looks fine to me

[tawdry glacier]

you must’ve better eyes than me

[cobalt talon]

the background is perhaps a bit too much

does it make it more easily readable

strange that there's no party inventory

oh there is

[potent hamlet]

Hype rising

[cobalt talon]

man its good

even the small snippet i played now

[plucky quail]

@modest musk chicken thighs and crash bandicoot?

wrong channel wait

[exotic kayak]

1am

[foggy valve]

let's not kid ourselves here woodsy

you're up anyways

[exotic kayak]

I'll be reformed by the time BG3 comes out

[foggy valve]

you can start the download then go to bed

steam servers probably gonna be fucked

[exotic kayak]

fuck thats a good shout

[molten abyss]

Is pm middle day or night

[foggy valve]

no preload for a 150gig game

[tawdry glacier]

Bruh

[foggy valve]

and Swen said that steam asked them to not release until steam had people at work since it broke steam when early access released

[tawdry glacier]

lmao

[cobalt talon]

Gent on a global launch map

[plucky quail]

do driveby for me

google maps shows that block as smol

[cobalt talon]

ye its not a large office

they're spread out across 7-8 offices worldwide

to combat time zones

[winter vigil]

Do I try and see if I can get next feiday off to game bd3

[molten abyss]

Do it

[plucky quail]

Yes

It's my birthday weekend

holy maybe im not playing sorc after all

[foggy valve]

If anyone is desperate for something to tide them over

https://www.humblebundle.com/games/rpg-legends-baldurs-gate-beyond

[molten abyss]

hmmm

what class do i play

[foggy valve]

You can look at them

https://bg3builder.site/?

[molten abyss]

also putro should i try out Pillars of Eternity 1 or 2 this week

[foggy valve]

I think you should finish all the other games u started

[cobalt talon]

I doubt you’ll like Pillars 1 dabbi

Its good but its very oldschool

I don’t think you have the patience for it

There’s a lot of reading, it’s fairly slow paced like the older isometric crpg, it’s lore heavy and the gameplay is pretty damn dated by now.

I replayed it last year, the latter half was a real slog and I had to drag myself through it

Besides you’re not getting anywhere in a week in these kind of games so what’s the point

[tawdry glacier]

real time with pause combat is so ass

don’t @ me

[potent hamlet]

turn based 4 life

BASED for a reason

[mint sparrow]

agree, I found it interesting to play Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire - but I prefer turn based over pause combat (good story and gameplay though)

[cobalt talon]

I agree. Turn based slows the game down a lot but I enjoy it more.

[mint sparrow]

feels more tactical than "stressing" between pauses/turns

[molten abyss]

im more in mood to play games this weekend

[molten abyss]

i prefer those tbh

[potent hamlet]

Ahhhh what class do I play I intentionally didn't spoil myself and now I know nothing about the game ahhhhhh if it isn't the consequences of my own actions aaaahhhhh

[foggy valve]

You can click on that builder I linked

no spoilers other than character creation in terms of race, subrace and class

then you can kinda read on all of them

[exotic kayak]

Can every race be every class

[foggy valve]

yes

and for launch they removed the attribute benefits for some races

so all races get +2 in one and +1 in another stat

so there's much less "optimal race" for each class

so now its mostly racial traits like darkvision etc that compete and there you can just pick what fits ur fantasy

[modest musk]

play a caster class

[tawdry glacier]

play a melee class

[molten abyss]

it was 5th right

[tawdry glacier]

no

[molten abyss]

oh 3rd thenm

good

[winter vigil]

Play a human male with a bow

[potent hamlet]

if I get a dog I might honestly

[foggy valve]

🐶

Now the real question is what party comp we going for

The holy trinity (+1) or somnething wild

[molten abyss]

Considering buying bg3

[potent hamlet]

I heard there are some interesting caster companions with good stories

So I'm more motivated to make a complimentary MC

[foggy valve]

all the companions are interesting and if u find someone super interesting but wrong class you can eventually respec them even if they will still refer to themselves as the original class

gonna let friends choose whatever they want and then fill in i guess

maybe play a skill monkey character to do all the checks

play a bard to play sick tunes and yell swear words at my enemies (and allies)

[molten abyss]

Hmm maybe some site has cheaper cost than steam

[foggy valve]

Unlikely

[molten abyss]

😭

Cant remember last time i bought full price game

[winter vigil]

LONE WOLF HUMAN MALE WITH BOW

[foggy valve]

booooooooooooooooooooooooooring

[winter vigil]

Uhm are you gatekeeping my fantasy

[foggy valve]

yes

[winter vigil]

Actually I'm gonna find the hottest elf woman with the biggest bazongas the planet has ever seen

[foggy valve]

[winter vigil]

She will be my wife (She hates me)

[molten abyss]

I might play lone wolf

[foggy valve]

i mean ... you can

just for me i'd never in a game so full of companion story arcs and interactions

[winter vigil]

Who is going to be your wife

[molten abyss]

when i controll more than 2 char i can get overwhelmed in combat

[foggy valve]

its turnbased

take all the time you want

[potent hamlet]

Sex them all big elf milkers wild bear sex sex sexy sex bazoinga make harem sex sex marry waifu

[molten abyss]

its also the items and gear management can be hard for me but i do my best

[winter vigil]

Finally someone gets it

[tawdry glacier]

mf says he prefers real time with pause combat, but gets overwhelmed with 2 characters???

[molten abyss]

well its different

[tawdry glacier]

it's really not

[molten abyss]

it is

[tawdry glacier]

real time with pause combat is so much more micro managing than playing 2 charaters

[molten abyss]

it issss

[foggy valve]

Are you going to play a gnome to get properly filled out by the NPCs?

uh... i mean....

[potent hamlet]

Like a pringles tube in a glove

Who is manly enough to do tactician first run

[potent hamlet]

[foggy valve]

Reminder this company gave you this fight

[potent hamlet]

Such a good set piece fight designer

on god

[foggy valve]

piece of shit designer you mean

mostly because that dumbass npc kept running into fire

[cobalt talon]

my ptsd

i'm going Sorcerer with a Rogue/Ranger type, a Cleric and a Fighter/Berserker (aka Minsc) pretty sure

for a first playthrough

slightly on the fence about wizard but with sorcerer having charisma as main stat it will make it more comfy to have him be the face of the party

persuasion/deception all the way

[tawdry glacier]

just bless the fire lole

[foggy valve]

4head

[potent hamlet]

just gets re cursed as soon as a blob dies tho xd

[molten abyss]

sort of wanna go slave for that survival stat

[cobalt talon]

It matters very little

Just take whatever fits your character

And don’t spam this channel with pillars now. We’re BG3 vining

Vibing

[foggy valve]

Swen talking about last minute crisis on friends per second podcast

I CANT WAIT

[foggy valve]

Any mood needers for their daily waging and caging

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=392LOEtfMiE

[molten abyss]

Imma try someting

[winter vigil]

if only I could A: listen to music and B: use youtube while waging

[foggy valve]

If you already have the game uninstalled and haven't deleted files go to

C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Larian Studios and there will be a baldurs gate 3 folder, it will have "Player Profiles" those are your saves

Purge them all

i just nuked entire bg3 folder there

[tawdry glacier]

why

[winter vigil]

maybe read this you piss pants

[tawdry glacier]

maybe you shut up

[foggy valve]

When the guy on an internet connection that cannot load profile pictures owns you, you're downbad

[tawdry glacier]

yeah and

[foggy valve]

[winter vigil]

and emotes

[cobalt talon]

Some guy at work wants to get lunch on Friday. Says it’s important

[foggy valve]

nothing is important on a friday

make him schedule for thursday

[lament hatch]

Fuck Thursdays always make change on read only friday

[molten abyss]

I want it on Friday too

😦

[foggy valve]

https://tenor.com/view/dawn-majora-finalday-gif-9607331

Realistically you’re not playing till friday anyways

120 gig dl, steam gonna crash, starting 5pm

[molten abyss]

Ao ur saying i got time to get it cracked

[cobalt talon]

[foggy valve]

Stop buying 1000 other random shit and buy this one thing if you’re excited about it

[molten abyss]

I have wdym

I bought stuff im happy with

[foggy valve]

Then no bg3 for you. Unfortunate

[molten abyss]

I have the power!!

[foggy valve]

If it was a massive developer i’d say go for it but it’s an indie developer without a major publisher in their back

And they’re nice enough to release non-drm versions on gog too, they deserve support not piracy

[tawdry glacier]

yeah true

[molten abyss]

Yes on sale

[tawdry glacier]

no

[cobalt talon]

classical dabbi cringe

Larian aren't fat cats, they almost went bankrupt multiple times before DOS2 and got bailed out by the Flemish government. They're self-publishing, they don't have a gang of fat cats behind them like Activision or EA.

They really do deserve support.

BG3 is gonna be their biggest success ever by a huge margin and they've expanded massively to be able to make BG3. Can only respect it and support it.

[potent hamlet]

I think Larians rep and good faith is completely deserved, I have full trust in BG3 to be beyond insane

[cobalt talon]

they're legit until they aren't

[molten abyss]

Yes but full price is a lot of money so I wait for sale

[cobalt talon]

bruh

its 60 euros

for hundreds of hours

[molten abyss]

Yes

[cobalt talon]

you spend more on your shitty smut books

[molten abyss]

No ?????

[potent hamlet]

Let him be poor

and late to the bear sex party

[molten abyss]

I have 30 eu on steam wallet since earlier

[tawdry glacier]

why do you even have any money in your steam wallet is the better question

[cobalt talon]

dabbi if you stop posting in TSL for 2 months i'll pay the rest of your balance towards BG3

[molten abyss]

Refunded game from summer sale

[winter vigil]

@scarlet sedge if you take your meds and sperg less I'll buy you the game when I get home

[foggy valve]

No he can buy it himself

[molten abyss]

Who is that

[molten abyss]

Okay i wont sperg rest of month

[winter vigil]

Another condition I'm adding is to stop spam pinging people

[molten abyss]

Ok deal

[cobalt talon]

guess who

[molten abyss]

Hi myx

Myz*

[cobalt talon]

[foggy valve]

3 minutes passed

[molten abyss]

We havent agreed yet

Once we make deal offical

[cobalt talon]

there's no way to get our money back

[plucky quail]

@foggy valve you do this before bedge

[winter vigil]

And his appdata

[plucky quail]

oh he did it yesterday

[winter vigil]

You're a real 1 still

[foggy valve]

[cobalt talon]

Final evening without BG3

[winter vigil]

[lament hatch]

You're missing the small print where dabbi needs to delete system 32

[foggy valve]

One last sleep before we unleash

[potent hamlet]

We're clearing in one night too, so no raid getting in my way tomorrowe

then im WFH on friday and im a game all day

[foggy valve]

pray for those servers

gonna sit ready at 5pm to clikc gogogo

[cobalt talon]

Gonna try to ditch work early

[potent hamlet]

im not home till 5 but the game comes out at 4

[tawdry glacier]

Do I have to redownload the game if it’s already installed or will that happen automatically

[modest musk]

i think they want you to u ninstall the current one and install the new one

[foggy valve]

Yep larian recommends deleting existing saves and uninstalling early accesss

[tawdry glacier]

yeah I just deleted the saves

[foggy valve]

Lets say you dont you just Update when it releaes yes

But it Will be full redownload there too

[tawdry glacier]

guess I can just delete it then

or I’ll leave it on so it downloads automatically when I’m not home

[foggy valve]

Steam servers will blow up today

But my dumbass will ve ready at 5

[tawdry glacier]

I'll be home by 6 or 7

maybe it'll be done by then

[mental linden]

why cant we

preload

[tawdry glacier]

because

oh btw do we know if/when we can respec in the game?

[potent hamlet]

Yeah full respec as I understand it. Can respec companions too

TODAY IS THE DAY

[tawdry glacier]

nice

[cobalt talon]

today's the day gamers

[cobalt talon]

yes

i'll be home at 6, hope I can update before bedtime and get an hour or 2 in

[molten abyss]

What time should I remote download the game ?

[potent hamlet]

Should be like 5pm for you

[molten abyss]

Hmm not home by then 😭

[foggy valve]

Because steam and early access

You can’t “take away” the product by letting people Update and then no longer be able to play the game

Larian pumping out builds

[molten abyss]

5pm is 17:00?

[cobalt talon]

no

what would you think it is Dabbi?

[foggy valve]

<t:1691074800:R>

release

[cobalt talon]

[molten abyss]

I never use am and pm so never learned it

[cobalt talon]

you're perennially online my guy

and 5pm = 5 = 17:00 which you probably also call "5" in Swedish instead of "17"

[molten abyss]

I use digital time all the time xD

So it is 17 then?

[cobalt talon]

there's no way you call 17:41 "seventeen hours 41"

[molten abyss]

I actually do " it's 13 40 let's take break" as example

[mental linden]

So glad im not playing with 1 friend

[potent hamlet]

BG3 crew growing

[mental linden]

who insta pick pockets every fucking npc in the game

[cobalt talon]

be glad you're not playing BG3 ith laquan

he'd fireball everyone in sight

[strange notch]

i played divinity with a friend like that

[mental linden]

ok

[strange notch]

[mental linden]

i get it for maybe 1 play through

but every time

[foggy valve]

imma set expectations for a playthru with the 2 friends that are sessioning together

"okay lads this is the GOOD playthrough"

[mental linden]

good means fucking bears

right?

[foggy valve]

Romancing i think we ffa

[cobalt talon]

i've never played any of the coop features in DOS and DOS2, i like to play on my own but i've seen hilarious playthroughs by people playing with friends

[mental linden]

i should go bed

[cobalt talon]

especially with all the sandbox features

[foggy valve]

In DOS2 we chilled all the way through and I killed him in the end

[mental linden]

for a few hours of sleep

[cobalt talon]

like stacking boxes to do weird shit

[foggy valve]

[mental linden]

i was a mage in my full playthough

he just insta vaporized

[foggy valve]

i used rouge to kill him off

no casting for him

[mental linden]

i put water down

[foggy valve]

we played origin chars

[mental linden]

and then pulled a

[tawdry glacier]

how else are you gonna kill slane

[cobalt talon]

i have no memory of boss fights in dos2

[tawdry glacier]

he's the ice dragon

[cobalt talon]

i know that Lohse summoner build carried me through 90% of the game

incarnate too op

[foggy valve]

uhhh HELPING him

no killing

!

[cobalt talon]

i think i also helped him

now that you mention it

[tawdry glacier]

if he didn't want to be killed he shouldn't give such good loot

simple as

[foggy valve]

[cobalt talon]

the only dragon fight i remember is one in a cave from pillars 1 that wrecked my ass

alpine dragon

[tawdry glacier]

also need to kill him for the achievement

[foggy valve]

played on gog didnt care about achievements

but he also gave alright rewards at quest ending iirc

[tawdry glacier]

the one you get for killing him is way better though

at least for a sorcerer

[cobalt talon]

no kill

[foggy valve]

i dont remember specifics other than we looked at a big ass dragon and decided to help and not kill because we cant kill something like that

[potent hamlet]

I think I'm happy to be going solo for first playthrough

[foggy valve]

no meta gaming of looking up rewards

[potent hamlet]

Can't be reading everything while the other guy murder hobos his way down the street

[tawdry glacier]

oh I didn't kill him in my first playthrough, only when I did another one solo optimizing shit

[cobalt talon]

yeah same

i optimized my lone wolf rogue/ranger playthrough

[strange notch]

i remember wanting to keep the void chicken peeper forever

[cobalt talon]

but first one i just bumbled around

[strange notch]

but then he turned into an evil blob

[cobalt talon]

i didnt interact with the entire crafting system at all

not once

[tawdry glacier]

I could kill everyone in the last fight in one turn

[foggy valve]

the uhm

ghostly dragon fight

was hardest for us

i think we accidentally bogged part of it so it was doable

[cobalt talon]

i think i had the most trouble with the blackpits fight

after that the doctor probably

[tawdry glacier]

ghostly dragon?

[cobalt talon]

and the scarecrow fight

that was actually the first hard fight for me

[foggy valve]

its part of the devourer set questline

[cobalt talon]

with its terror aura

[foggy valve]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rdDhwpck9Rc

This bitch ass

[tawdry glacier]

BY THE HAZING OF THE SHADE I'LL KILL YOUR SHINING LIGHTS

[tawdry glacier]

I don't think I ever did that one

is that some questline from one of the characters

[foggy valve]

No

[tawdry glacier]

🤨

[foggy valve]

It's started on fort joy

and lasts entire game through

long questline with picking up armor pieces

[tawdry glacier]

uuuuuh

[foggy valve]

pick up some gloves in braccus rex tower to start it off

[cobalt talon]

oh yeah

[tawdry glacier]

I think I did that, but maybe I just forgot the fight

[foggy valve]

[winter vigil]
