Nameless One: "Ah shit not this again..."

western rpg thread? I'm playing Planescape for the first time so no spoilers pls. I just met Ingress. Poor son of a bitch.

>> No.2142713

God, I wish I could format my brain and playthat game again.
You are in some good times.
This is not spoiler but, if you are at the begining of the game, start a new and invert everything in WIS.
It will make game even more readable.

He means you should max out your Wisdom stat.

PS:T is kinda imbalanced in favor of Wisdom over everything else.

>> No.2142762

max Wisdom, then prioritize Intelligence to give you more conv. options
use all classes, best is mage for xping with spells
enjoy the game

Invest everything in WIS, WIS at it is could look like useless stat but it is probably most important because on WIS depends how much will you remeber from your past lifes.Also adds xp bonus and some other imporatant thing and if memory serves me right you get 1 point each level so it is not that hard to have all stats 25.

Also, this 5 mods in this order are neccecity.
01widescreen-v3.05
02Ghostdog's incredible UI modv2.01
03the Ultimate Fixpack

and play GOG version, best out there.
Happy search for what is the meaning of al this and what can change the nature of a man.
Also I hope your diary is heavily updated.

Played though Planescape this fall and it was quite a great journey.
Sadly after that the dialog and writing in other games of the genre seem so lacking.

He did the artwork to the D&D setting, which is all amazing. I don't know that he did the artwork for PST, though. The concepts in that game are pretty ugly CG renders. They just look a lot better as zoomed out sprites.

the all caster run was piss easy when I got the good spells and I finished that in record time.

Remember to talk to your partners when ever something big happens.

Mage is best class.

Make sure to get Raise Dead from Deionarra if you haven't already.

I mean dude think about it

there are like 15 take down animations and you might do them hundreds of times

if you don't play it that way, it's either a shitty FPS or a shitty vent crawling simulator.

HR had some good points to it and at least felt Deus Ex-like to me. You're entitled not to like it, but to rank it below Invisible War is ludicrous. Invisible War had no redeeming qualities whatsoever. It was a terrible sequel and a terrible game.

Played through Exile recently.

The game was surprisingly big. Very satisfying to finally beat too, though a few of the final world puzzles were frustrating, and I had to end up looking in a guide. Very fun though. Wish there was more large-scale combat. The few times in the game you had to go up against 20+ enemies at once was exhilarating.

The interface was a hurdle, but I got used to it after an hour or so of playing.

The list is probably more geared for the singleplayer experience, which Diablo and Diablo 2 were both pretty mediocre in.

Multiplayer was dank as fuck though.

Say that to my face fucker. Diablo in SP is a legit horror game. You can't get that in multiplayer.

I'm on my first playthrough too! The world felt big and I had some hardcore ADHD. Once I just calmed down and started to enjoy walking around talking to everyone the game got pretty fun. CSGO kept stealing time away but last night I ended up putting 6-8 hours straight into it. I love how the combat isn't the biggest deal in this game because I fucking hate the combat style of these games.

Anyway keep us posted!

I thought you could talk about her all you wanted but just couldn't worship her. Which means if the paintings were just "she's pretty cool" nothing would happen. But if they were "praise her holiness we fall down and worship at her feet" you'd be in some deep shit.

You pretty much can't do anything that gains her attention. She kills people for looking at her when she hovers down the street.
