Why buy a ship when there were no Eothas to pursue I wonder? Watcher were planning a voyage around the world? :P

Sawyer said:
The Steward sold most of your treasury to buy the Defiant

Methinks she got ripped off :D
Or she spent most of the money on whores and booze and than had to buy a ship with what was left.

Statues doing weird things seem to be one of the themes of the game.

The Steward: "My Lord, I've purchased for us a boat."

The Watcher: [sees the decrepit, barely afloat hull of the Defiant] "Oh. Well... uhm... I suppose it'll do on such short notice. How much did it set us back? 2000 gp? 3000? I hope all my meticulously hoarded shit will fit in there."

The Steward: "No need to worry 'bout that, my Lord, I've liquidated all of your remaining assets to acquire this magnificent seafaring vessel."

The Watcher: "... lemme get this straight... Eothas stole my XP, and you pawned the rest of my gear?! Even my soul-bound stuff? Items which are SOUL. BOUND. TO. ME!?"

The Steward: "My Lord, how else was I supposed to buy us this ship? I did advise you to do it, but you were busy crying about having to level up all over again."

The Watcher: "You could have bought the entire Rautaian navy with all that cash! Or a luxury Aedyran cruise liner! Fuck, even a Naastiaqi blubber boat would have been better! Out of all the boats in Dyrwood, why did you pick out this pile of jetsam!?"

The Steward: "... there's more than one boat?"

I liked the crafting of epic unique items in BGII. It felt rewarding after having carried around the parts which were useless separately, to have them forged into extremely powerful weapons. But of course you could only make one of each, except the ankheg plate.

After the total fiasco filled with Sawyer's --who must love the smell of his couch's week-old stale farts-- pretentious writing, these fuckers have the audacity of wanting to release yet another tl;dr lore-dumping generator filled with SJW circle-jerking and shitty clusterfuck combat?

Fuck Obsidian and their soulless art department, their once-made-something-great-but-now-eat-dick-and-chocolate developers, and their whole parafernalia of society's most talentless rejects they call """game designers""".

Seriously, fuck these assholes, their games suck and are as soulless as games can be.

Damn. Sawyer must be swinging some serious wood if he left you such a painful rectal prolapse.

I have never heard this take before, what are you referring to?

A lot of people inferred that Obsidian (or at least - Sawyer) are SJW because they changed that Firedorn Lightbringer memorial after someone complained about it on Twitter.

But in the first White March expansion, they added a bounty which has you killing a character named Firedorn, a person constantly referred to by male pronouns, but sporting a female avatar.

So, yeah, in PoE you get to kill a tranny and get paid for it :D

I always interpreted that bounty as Obsidian turning Firedorn into what he was "prejudiced" against, and then having the player kill him as a "fuck you, bigot" message to firedorn.

Jesus Christ, dude... it was a nice gesture. Going from mere backer memorial to bounty npc without having to put money to earn it is a cool gesture no matter how you slice it.

And did I say it wasn't? I was merely posting what was my interpretation of the bounty at the time that I did it.

Well, if your interpretation of this nice gesture is a "fuck you, bigot", it stops being a nice gesture, doesn't it? It would be petty revenge for the least deserving of it.

What the fuck are you talking about?
About the intentions behind putting Firedorn as a tranny NPC for a bounty quest in the expansion? Specifically about the intentions that TheSentinel interpreted.
