Eternity Pillars of Eternity II Beta Thread [GAME RELEASED, GO TO NEW THREAD]

[Urthor]

Call me when something actually controversial happens. Like engage/disengage mechanics being totally unchanged, what was the actual result of all the changes to engage to stop the tank and spank of PoE1 at the end of the day?

Matthew Mercer and friends have done so much voice acting work in the industry it isn't funny, they are not standout but they've reliable choices.

Oh man, you’re right, Twitch is watching your brother play video games. That’s why it’s viscerally unappealing to firstborn children: it’s like watching your stupid younger siblings play when parents give them control of the TV. Whereas for younger siblings it’s like watching someone you admire do something cool. That blew my mind.

oh if you're a Druid and you Wildshift you leap too as part of the action now? Or is that an action for ship battles?

Latter.

 

[fantadomat]

That is some magical bullets there,splashing the guy all over the deck. Also do you sink the enemy shit if you take it in the boarding? It is kind of lame,the ship must be worth a few bags of gold.

I have two older half-brothers and have watched them play games as a kid from time to time, I don't feel any kind of nostalgic familial connection to Twitch streamers. It's only worth watching the very best at some competitive games to pick up on their techniques and strategies. I still haven't seen a competent Twitch streamer, let alone someone to learn from. It's better to watch tournament footage for that goal. Soooooo, no idea why Twitch streamers are ridiculously famous and profitable.

 

[Bocha]

did you notice in the last response to Infinitron in tmblr, Josh said only one character left without voices...maybe teasing a new RNPC?

People are far too lazy to play games by this point.

It varies. Most aren't ridiculously famous or profitable, and a large portion of the most popular ones are quite unfunny and/or uninteresting to watch or listen. Ninja is one I just don't get. He's good at Battle Royale I guess, but his stream is just so fucking boring to watch and he somehow got Drake to play with him. Some have a funny character they play as like DrDisrespect, but that guy is also pretty good at the games he plays.

Twitch is for pathetic NEETs who are so bored and who have such a lack of drive to do anything that watching someone else have fun is the only way they can get through the day.

 

[Sentinel]

Swapping companions is pretty easy. You can do it any time you are on the ship, which gives a lot of opportunities to drop people in/out.

no storyfag wants to swap companions, they want to do a full playthrough with composition x to see all the interactions. is this nigga srs

 

[CptMace]

What a dilemma.

It seems like more of a normie thing to me. You work all day and you take care of your family all weekend, you don't have time to actually play games, but watching streams lets you stay current and get a taste of what a given game will be like when you finally get the chance to play it

 

[CptMace]

Most people on twitch put it in the background while doing something else.
It's impossible to summarise twitch users in one category. There are three big families :
- The dudes who are on weed and have absolutely nothing else to do but watch random shit while sitting in their sofa. Can be twitch, can be meme compilations, anything fast paced really.
- People who are doing some other shit and have it in the background in pretty much the same fashion the former generations would have put the tv or the radio in the background.
- The visible part of twitch : those who actively take part in the chat, even if said chat is only fed by dank emoji and copy pasta. I suspect they're kids and retards, and some of them - I assume - are good people.

if you play videogames and haven't heard at least one or 2 of them then you either dont play enough games, or just really ignorant. they're all good VA most of the time.

Anyone who played the first game(including DLC) has already heard 4 of them.

Josh mentioned on the somethingawful forums that you can avoid a fight in that encounter if you pick the right dialogue options.

Heh, I missed this. Such a fuss about it; "OMG NO OPTIONZ TO AVOID A FIGHT!!!" and when proven wrong no word about it, keep up the good condexians

 

[Tenebris]

Heh, I missed this. Such a fuss about it; "OMG NO OPTIONZ TO AVOID A FIGHT!!!" and when proven wrong no word about it, keep up the good condexians

Seemed pretty obvious one of the other options could avoid the fight. Don't know why people got so worked up over this.

Because some people are determined to have a never ending hate boner for Obsidian / Sawyer?

 

[Pizzashoes]

Yeah with all the Sawyer hate it's no wonder why the man won't come and visit with us. Maybe if people around here were more welcoming, more devs would take the site seriously.
