Grazes exist, but I'm not sure if it's universal or only a few abilities allow you to graze.

They were never completely removed. I am now unsure about the same thing as you.

Ok, thanks! I know which will be the first thing I'll mod out.

Another code discovered, on the Versus Evil website: https://forums.obsidian.net/topic/95782-worldofeternity-funny-business-speculation/?p=1982416

I’m sure it’s just a coincidence, but I find it interesting that we’re yet to see a code that has a number for the 3rd character

Actually that's not true anymore. This one has been undiscovered for weeks probably.

yJ3BqA, for the record

Honestly still a bit bummed we're not getting Ydwin as a full companion...

I really wouldn't be surprised if shes ends up being a "Coming to an overpriced dlc near you." down the line or in an world thats partially ideal, she comes in as a full companion in whatever expansions they are cooking up.

Though if it was an ideal world she would be a full companion in from the start but such optimism is unbecoming

If we don’t hit the stretch goal by 5pm PDT today, she will be a sidekick in Deadfire. It would be possible for her (or Rekke, etc.) to become a companion in an expansion, but not in the core game. The new features we’re adding for companions increase the amount of work we need to do per companion by about 50%. We’re fully scheduled for companion writing through the rest of the project just with the core 7.

 

[Trashos]

red eyes, so probably an albino

She's a pale elf and they are all borderline albinos.

Ah, cool, couldn't see it in the first pic.

 

[CptMace]

Ydwin looks like a character from the cardinal's blades. A female Saint-Lucq basically.

 

[rusty_shackleford]

ydwin looks creepy
lack of waifus is disturbing

 

[Once more unto the Codex]

Don’t speak blasphemy against Eothas/Guan. Xoti

 

[fantadomat]

Goddamn her outfit looks good

now only have to change her portrait

Would fuck/bearak this. Do i get to choose the whips ?

 

[Azarkon]

Ydwin looks like a character from the cardinal's blades. A female Saint-Lucq basically.

...And just about every other Victorian era vampire ever designed. But the most immediate influence that came to mind was anime, specifically Hellsing.

 

[CptMace]

He's not a vampire, and he's from the xviith century. But he does look like alucard, I have no idea where this illustration is from though. Ydwin looks like a female elf version of his description in book, t'is all. Especially with the smug facial expression.

 

[frajaq]

cmon dude don't be picky now
they're fine as far as obsidian games go

 

[CptMace]

Your portraits are enhanced compared to the ones from the deadfire wiki.

I guess they're out of date or something.

they look like something drawn by an overweight tumblr user

The fuck? Fixed-chin Palle, completely different/classically beautiful Xoty, more attractive Ydwin & same Maya AFAICT. First 3 are fan-edited or something?

Ydwen's portrait is way worse. What the fuck. The other one got a touch up but still looks shit.

Overall the PoE2 portraits are pretty bad.

if those are fan edits they're the ones I'll be using because the other ones are horrifyingly ugly

The elite are all about transcendence and living forever and the secrets of the universe and they want to know all this, some are good some are bad some are a mix; but the good ones don't ever want to organize, the bad ones tend to want to organize because they lust after power. Powerful consciousnesses don't want to dominate other people, they want to empower them so they don't tend to get together until things are really late in the game, then they come together and evil is always defeated. Because good is so much stronger. And we're on this planet and Einstein's physics showed it, Max Planck's physics showed it- there's at least twelve dimensions. And now that's all the top scientists and billionaires are coming out and saying it's a false hologram, it is artificial, the computers are scanning it and finding tension points where it's artificially projected and gravity is bleeding in to this universe. That's what they call dark matter. So we're like a thought or a dream that's a wisp in a computer program, some God's mind, whatever. They're proving it all, it's all coming out.

Now, there's like this sub-transmission zone below the third dimension. This just turned over the most horrible things, is what it resonates to, and it's trying to get up into the third dimension that's just a basic level consciousness to launch into the next levels. And our species is already way up in the fifth dimension. But there's this big war trying to, like, basically, destroy humanity because humanity has free will and there's a decision to which level we wanna go to. We have free will, so evil is allowed to come and contend, not just good. And the elites themselves believe they're racing using human technology to try and take our best minds and build some kind of break away civilization where they're gonna merge with machines, transcend, and break away from the failed species that is man. Which is kind of like a false transmission because they're thinking what they are is ugly and bad, projecting it unto themselves instead of believing - "no, it's a human test about building us up". And so Google was set up, 18, 19 years ago - I knew about this before it was declassified, I'm just saying I have the sources - that they wanted to build a giant artificial system, and Google believes the first AI will be a super-computer based on the neuron activities of the hivemind of humanity with billions of people wired into it, and so all of our thoughts go into it and we're actually building a computer that has neurons in real time that's also cyclically connected to us, that are organic creatures, so that they will have current prediction powers, future prediction powers, a true crystal ball, but the big secret is - once you have a crystal ball and know the future, you can add stimuli beforehand and make decisions that control the future. And so then it's the end of consciousness and free will for individuals as we know and a true 2.0, in a very bad way, hivemind consciousness with an AI jacked into everyone knowing our hopes and dreams, delivering it to-- not in some PKD wirehead system where we plug in and give up our consciousness because of unlimited pleasure, but because we were already wired up and absorbed before we knew it by giving over our consciousness to this system by our daily decisions that it was able to manipulate and control into a larger system.

There's now a human counter-strike taking place to shut this off before it gets fully into place, and to block these systems and to try and have an actual debate about where humanity goes, and to cut off the pedophiles and psychic vampires that are in control of this AI system before humanity is destroyed. The pedophiles, at whatever level, the devil, whatever you want to call it, this inter dimensional thing that gives them advanced off-world technology, the Fallen One, that's not of this world, is giving them advanced knowledge on how to construct these systems that have already been used before on other populations. Satan becomes something that, you know, the stupid preacher tells you about, something you read about in the news or TV, but this is an inter dimensional force that wants to influence us to build something that absorbs us and kills us, rather than the divine free will we're given to build something much better that empowers the species, so the species is now making a decision about its entire future.

Can you put all of this juicy information in a spoiler tag; not everyone wants to have the plot outline of PoE2 ruined for them.

Lol, do you think they read our thread?

cmon dude don't be picky now

I actually like the second one. The third one also looks pretty when she wants to. Are we sure these are the latest portraits? I 'll probably have to call off my intended "uglyPOEple" thread on release day.

 

[Tom Selleck]

I'd bumhump the second one even with her woke millenial hoop nose ring.

They're not official; they were made by some dude on the 4chan boards
